When Sun Simiao saw the excited villagers, he first helped up the most respected old man in the village, who looked older than Sun Simiao.

"Sun Zhenren, you have to save our people." The old man said with tears in his eyes, after all, smallpox was terrible, and the old man had already seen it, and the festering and smelly corpses in the far side of the village were the best proof.

"Eh, let's get up and talk first, this time the old way has brought a way to prevent smallpox." Sun Simiao said.

Although Sun Simiao is now an official, his lifelong wandering among the people has brought Sun Simiao not only honor, but also the trust of the people, which is unconditional that no king can do.

Under Sun Simiao's arrangement, everyone in the villagers was stabbed with a knife stained with pus from the cowpox virus on their arms, and then they all stood aside to listen to Sun Simiao's arrangement.

"There are no people who have not been cut, and they are dissatisfied with everyone, saying that even Your Majesty has to come with such a knife, which is a way to resist smallpox, so don't be afraid. The people of Chang'an City have already been requested by His Majesty, and everyone will come to such a knife tomorrow. Sun Simiao said.

When the villagers heard Sun Simiao say this, you look at me, I look at you, shook their heads, and signaled that there was no one in their house.

Zhang Nan looked at the group of people holding their arms, and suddenly found that there was a little girl in the crowd who wanted to speak, but she stopped talking, so Zhang Nan walked a few steps, came to the little girl's side and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The little girl seemed to have some life, but seeing that Zhang Nan came with the white-bearded grandfather, that is, Sun Simiao, the little girl still had the courage to say something.

"My name is Wan Hui." The little girl looked at Zhang Nan timidly and said.

"Wanhui, what a nice name, just now the big brother saw that you had something to say, didn't you?" Zhang Nan touched the little girl's head and said.

The little girl looked at the people around her, then looked at Zhang Nan, nodded and said, "Yes, just now the old man said that there is no one who has not been cut, and Wanhui's father and mother have not." ”

When the villagers heard Wan Hui say this, their faces suddenly showed displeasure.

"Then tell my brother, what about your father?" Zhang Nan asked.

"My father and mother were driven into the mountains by the uncles in the village." Wan Hui said.

As soon as Zhang Nan heard it, he knew what it meant. Wanhui's parents must have been infected by smallpox, and were driven to the mountains by the people in the village to fend for themselves, although this method is cruel, but Zhang Nan can also understand, after all, it is human nature to be infected with smallpox, a virulent infectious disease, and be isolated.

"Little friend, is your method useful for patients who have contracted smallpox?" Sun Simiao walked to Zhang Nan's side and asked, after all, some people are only suspected of contracting smallpox, but they are not sure, the people in the village are in line with the idea that they would rather kill by mistake than let go of those villagers who are suspected of suffering from smallpox.

"Well, I don't really know if this will work for people who already have smallpox, but we can give it a try." Zhang Nan scratched his head and said.

"Then give it a try, it's better than doing nothing, after all, it's a matter of human life." After Sun Simiao finished speaking, he turned to the village and said, "Liu Cunzheng, I don't know that you drove this smallpox villager there. ”

"This, don't hide it from Sun Zhenren, these people have been driven by us to the back mountain to fend for themselves." Liu Cunzheng said.

"Take me to the back mountain, by the way, catch this cow, Lao Dao wants to try it for these people." Sun Simiao said.

When Liu Cunzheng heard Sun Simiao say this, his face suddenly turned embarrassed.

"Oh? Don't know what's wrong? Sun Simiao looked at Liu Cunzheng, who looked constipated, and asked.

"It's better for Sun Zhenren not to go, these people have already suffered from smallpox, and it has been a few days since they rushed to the back mountain, they must have died of death, and they ran away, Sun Zhenren still don't bother to come." Liu Cunzheng gave a not very reliable answer.

Zhang Nan saw Liu Cunzheng's appearance, and felt a little uneasy, so he said: "No matter what, it's always good to go and see, in case some villagers just don't leave at the foot of the mountain." Wouldn't that save one more person? ”

"That's right, Liu Cun is leading the way in front, Lao Dao wants to take a look." Sun Simiao also insisted.

"This ......" Liu Cunzheng still looked constipated. When Zhang Nan saw Liu Cunzheng like this, he knew that things must not be simple, so he said: "Liu Cunzheng should lead the way quickly, I want to see people in life and corpses in death." ”

And this village zheng, who was used to being the emperor of the soil in the village, saw that Zhang Nan was more horizontal than himself, so he said: "You are a little medicine boy, how can you speak here, what does it have to do with you when I talk to Sun Zhenren?" ”

Zhang Nan was amused by this village zheng, because Zhang Nan did not wear an official uniform, and he was young, so it was not surprising that he was mistaken for Sun Simiao's medicine boy, after all, the apprentices Sun Simiao took two days ago were all young people like Zhang Nan.

"Zai Bucai, it's just a little medicine boy, Liu Cunzheng is not going to lead the way quickly." Zhang Nan said with a smile.

"Hmph, I won't lead the way, if Sun Zhenren wants to go, then go by yourself." After Liu Cunzheng finished speaking, he turned his head and left directly. Even Sun Simiao, who saved a village, ignored it and left directly.

Sun Simiao was shocked, and Zhang Nan was also shocked, there are still such people in this world, is the world already so cold? Zhang Nan shouted in his heart.

Just when Zhang Nan was shocked, he felt that his sleeves were being pulled. Zhang Nan turned around and found that Wanhui was pulling her sleeves.

"Wanhui can take her eldest brother and grandfather to the back mountain, but the eldest brother and grandpa have to promise Wanhui to save Wanhui's father." Wanhui looked at Zhang Nan with her big eyes and said.

Zhang Nan touched Wanhui's head and agreed, and then the three of them took an ox cart to the back mountain together.

When he arrived at Houshan, Zhang Nan found that it was completely different from what he thought, originally Zhang Nan thought that these villagers who were driven to Houshan would not disperse, but when he arrived in Houshan, Zhang Nan found that there was no villager here at all.

Wanhui took Zhang Nan and Sun Simiao into the mountain, but after walking along the mountain road for a long time, Zhang Nan didn't even find a ghost.

Walking and walking, Wanhui didn't know why, she came directly to a small open space, squatted on the ground and refused to leave, Zhang Nan saw Wanhui's strange appearance, so she and Sun Simiao went forward to check it out.
