Concubine often travels through: the magic doctor and ugly concubine

Chapter 897 Food and Water Sources
After getting the answer she wanted, Zuo Junyao slowly let go of Xiaoci's hand.

She now basically knows the cause of the plague outbreak.

It's just that whether this incident is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, we have to wait until the villagers are cured before we can find out.

It's okay if it's a natural disaster; but if it's a man-made disaster, she can't imagine the meaning behind it.

At this moment the young man on the bed began to cough violently.

When everyone heard the sound, they hurriedly gathered around.

Xiaoci poked her head to look at the person on the bed, and suddenly called out strangely: "Brother Qingshan?"

Zuo Xing turned his head and glanced at her, seeing that she had been staring at the person on the bed, he couldn't help asking: "Do you know him?"

There was a bit more complicated meaning in the words, which attracted Zuo Junyao's sideways attention.

It's just that she took a second look, then retracted her gaze, and continued to observe the young man's situation.

"Well. He is the second son of my cousin's family. I couldn't bear it for a while and left the village. Why are you back now?"

Xiao Ci looked at the young man on the bed curiously, and found that he seemed to be sick too, so the curiosity on his face disappeared instantly.

Seeing this, Zuo Xing, who had been paying attention to her, couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Ci pursed her bright red mouth and shook her head vigorously: "It's nothing. I just suddenly thought of the reason why Brother Qingshan came back. Probably other villages knew that he went out from here, so they drove him out! There were a few elder brothers who came back like this before, and some died as soon as they entered the village. There are still a few who are now in the courtyard of that small temple."

Speaking of the small temple, Zuo Xing asked again: "Why do the villagers gather in the small temple?"

"Because everyone was terrified by this terrible disease, thinking that the gods were punishing our village, so when they were still alive, everyone gathered in the small temple and prayed to the gods in the sky to lift our punishment."

After Xiao Ci finished speaking, there was no sound in the room, only Qing Shan, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed in pain, was panting heavily, as if he would stop breathing at any moment.

After the green hill was settled, everyone came out of the somewhat oppressive room.

It was getting late at this time, and Zuo Junyao, who hadn't eaten since noon, also felt a little empty in her stomach.

"Zuo Xing, you and Zuo Chen go get something to eat. Try to find it outside the village. After you find it, use this medicinal powder to soak it and then make it into food. Don't eat meat now. I suspect the virus that the villagers are sick with." It was infected from the livestock in the village."

Zuo Xing and Zuo Chen took the order to go out.

Zuo Junyao asked Xiao Ci where she got the clean water before.

Eighty percent of the water source in the village has also been infected, so it must not be drinkable anymore.

Before Xiao Ci could speak, Zuo Ye had already answered her.

He said that going out from the back of the village is an upward slope, and there is a pool on it that is relatively clear, and he got the water from there before.

Xiaoci nodded and told them that she also went there every day to fetch water to feed the villagers. It would take her almost a day to feed everyone, but these times were getting shorter and shorter, because every day Some villagers died.

Zuo Junyao deliberately ignored Xiaoci's sad expression, nodded her head, and felt relieved.

The source upstream of the village must not have been polluted, and fortunately there is such a place, otherwise, they would not be able to see that there are still living people here.
