Chapter 328 Poisoning and Detoxification (6)
The three of them finished their dinner hastily, and then discussed in front of a simple wooden table. "What is this?" Jingyi looked at the piece of paper that Qingtian took out from her arms.

"This is the topographic map of the interior of Yangcun that Abu drew for us. You can see that the most concentrated residents of Yangcun are here. But there are only eight households. The rest, you see, are scattered among them. Around, the farthest house, according to Abu, may be two or three miles away, and here it is." Qingtian put his finger on a black circle in the upper left corner, which is a drawing of Abu with residential buildings Just draw a circle.

"Scattered villagers like this, how did this person who poisoned most of them get poisoned?" Jingyi murmured: "The most clever thing is that in a family, some people are poisoned and some are fine. More like a plague!"

Yuan Xi frowned and said, "The water source is fine! Then we can attack in other places. On a sunny day, isn't this village said to have a population of more than [-] people? How many of them have signs of poisoning?"

"According to the news brought back by Ah Bu and Xiao Wuzi, about two-thirds of the people have symptoms. There are probably more than a hundred people who are serious."

"That is to say, if these two people don't improve tomorrow, then the lives of more than a hundred people in the village will be in danger?" Jingyi suddenly raised her voice.

Qing Tian nodded, "That's why I'm in a hurry!"

"In this way, detoxification is up to you, because you are the best at it. Others, such as finding the source of the poison and finding the poisoner, leave these issues to Yuanxi and me. You are only in charge of detoxification, and don't bother with the rest. .”

After Jingyi finished speaking, she looked at Yuanxi again, "We have to find a way to go up the mountain! Abu's skill is good, and he also helped Qingtian a lot. But we still need more detailed information."

"I understand. Don't worry, as soon as I got here, I went up the mountain. They are all good at keeping secrets, and they won't let the villagers of Yang Village find out."

Jingyi smiled and said: "You still think carefully. How about this, tomorrow morning, let's take a look around the mountain. Yangcun lives in the middle of the mountain, but their scope of activities is not limited to the halfway. Let’s take a look at the situation at the bottom of the mountain and at the top of the mountain first. See if there is some kind of poison growing on this mountain, which was eaten by the villagers by mistake?”

"Yes! That's a good idea. Why didn't I think of it?" Qing Tian slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.

"It's because you only think about preparing the antidote, why do you want so much? Tomorrow at the latest, the medicinal materials you want will arrive."

"Okay. I'll go see those two villagers again, and then go to bed." Speaking of this, Qingtian was a little surprised: "Unexpectedly, there is such a small country in this world!"

Jingyi smiled and said: "There are many things you can't think of! According to historical records, this Zongji people are no more than three feet long, and their skin is dark brown! Although it may be an exaggeration, but this Zongji people are indeed short in stature. Abu As a man, he is not as tall as me, but he can be said to be a different kind in the Yanke clan!"

Qing Tian nodded, "I've occasionally seen one or two dwarfs on other occasions before! But I didn't expect that such a race really existed in the closed city! It's really surprising!"

"Okay, it's getting late. Let's all go to rest. If the health of the two people improves tomorrow, you have to prepare to enter the village to detoxify the whole village."

The three of them dispersed, Yuan Xi and Jing Yi arrived at the camp set up by the guards, and just lay down when the little white tiger came back.Jingyi didn't get up, but just closed her eyes and said: "Cat, you find a place to sleep by yourself, don't make trouble." The little white tiger seemed to understand, and obediently grabbed a piece of cushion on the ground at the end of the bed between the two of them. , and then fell asleep on it.

Early the next morning, someone called Yuan Xi and Jing Yi, and it turned out that the two villagers woke up!
"This is great news! In this way, the villagers of Yang Village will be saved!" Jingyi said happily.

"Let's go and have a look." Yuan Xi pulled Jing Yi's hand out of the tent.

When the two of them saw the two villagers, they looked better than yesterday, the dark blue color on their faces became lighter, and both of them opened their eyes!Sunny Tian was sitting at the side to diagnose their pulse.

"How is it?" Seeing that Qingtian withdrew his hand, Jingyi asked anxiously.

"It is indeed effective, take another two doses of medicine to see." After Qing Tian finished speaking, someone brought in two bowls of porridge. "You guys have some porridge first, and you need to take medicine later." Qing Tian ordered two guards to feed the meal.

After a while, a villager asked, "You saved us?"

Qing Tian glanced at that person, "It's me! Do you have something to say?"

The villager nodded and said, "Many people in our village have been infected with the plague! Since you can save us, please save the villagers in our village."

Another villager pushed him with his hand, and whispered: "What nonsense are you talking about! The patriarch will not agree."

Sunny Tian said solemnly: "You were carried down the mountain yesterday by two people brought by Ah Bu and Xiao Wuzi. When you went down the mountain, you were already completely unconscious. I have reached an agreement with your patriarch, if I can save you , he let me enter the village to treat other villagers!"

After finishing speaking here, Qingtian paused, looked at the two of them solemnly and said, "What I want to tell you now is that you are not infected with the plague, but poisoned!"

"Poisoned?" The two called out in unison. "How is it possible? Are you saying that other villagers in our village were also poisoned?"

Qing Tian nodded, "If their symptoms are the same as yours, then they should have been poisoned by the same poison as you!"

The two villagers looked at each other, a little disbelieving: "People in our village have lived there for generations, rarely communicate with the outside world, and have never offended anyone. Why did they poison us?"

Another said: "Yes! We are small in stature, we never make enemies for ourselves, we hide when we can, and endure when we can! Why would someone poison us?"

Jingyi stepped forward and said: "We are also thoroughly investigating who poisoned your village, so now, think about it carefully, when did this symptom first appear in your village? Also, During the few days when this symptom appeared, did any strange things happen in your village?"

The two thought for a while, and one of them said, "This has happened in our village for about eight or nine days! On the first day, it seemed that many people had symptoms such as weakness, dizziness and nausea. After that, there were more and more people. "

Qing Tian looked at the two of them and said, "Then think about it again, did you hold any important events in the village in those few days, such as weddings, or other important events in the village?"

The two shook their heads, "No."

The three of Yuanxi looked at each other, and Qing Tian gave some instructions to the villagers before leaving the tent.As soon as he got out of the tent, the little white tiger ran over and circled around Jingyi!Jingyi glanced at it, but ignored it.He just murmured: "I didn't have a meal together, so how did you get poisoned?"

Yuan Xi frowned and remained silent, while Qing Tian also shook his head.

"Greetings to the prince and princess!" Ah Bu knelt on the ground and said.

"No! You're back? Get up quickly. How's your inquiry going?" Jingyi asked.

"Going back to the princess, the servant went up the mountain to ask, and then I took a rough look. There are quite a few families similar to the little five's family! Many families have four or five people, and one or two people have not been poisoned."

"This is even more strange! Yiyi, if you were to poison! What kind of method could you come up with to poison like this?" Qingtian asked.

Jingyi shook her head, "It's so ingenious to be able to infuse poison in such a scattered place! I'm ashamed of myself."

Yuan Xi narrowed his eyes and said, "It doesn't have to be that difficult!"

Jingyi and Qingtian both looked at him when they heard the words!
Only Yuan Xi chuckled and said: "Our opponent is really a master!"

"What do you mean? Can you explain it more clearly?" Qing Tian urged.

"The poison is not so similar to the plague, so what about the antidote?" Yuan Xi asked back.

Qingtian and Jingyi looked at each other, and suddenly felt enlightened!Jingyi said with great joy: "Yuanxi is really smart! Why didn't we think of it? The poison is not good enough to be like this, but it is much easier to give the villagers part of the antidote!"
