The first thing they had to do was make sure that the refugees on the mountain werent diseased.

It would be fine if they didnt bring any, but coming into the village was a dead no if they did.

Of course, their possibility of carrying this new disease wasnt high. Otherwise, how could they have crossed the mountains and rivers to reach this place? However, they had to be prepared for any possibilities.

Gu Chengrui, who was discussing a prescription with Doctor Luo, was startled when he learned of her news. He immediately stood up and said, 111 go get a carriage from the back. Wait for me at the side door.

Ill go with you. Doctor Luo declared, too. He said a few words to his apprentice, took his medicine kit, and went to the side door with Zhou Ying.

After Gu Chengrui had secured the carriage, they quickly rushed to the village.

When they arrived at the village, everyone had already gathered at the foot of the mountains; even soldiers were climbing up the mountains.

Seeing this, Gu Chengrui turned his head and said to Doctor Luo, Doctor Luo, you wait at the foot of the mountains, and 111 go up with them.

Be careful. Doctor Luo nodded.

He knew very well that going up the mountain would only bring them trouble at his age.

Gu Chengrui nodded. After handing the horse reins over to Zhou Ying, he immediately went into the carriage, took his medicine kit, and chased after the soldiers.

When he reached the front, he realized that not only were the soldiers there but even Tian Jingzhong and the patriarch.

He immediately stepped forward, took a deep breath, and said, Village constable, uncle, try not to get into a conflict with them. Ill see if they are diseased or not.

Tian Jingzhong smiled and patted his shoulder. Thats my intention. With you here, we can be at ease. Lets hurry up and head up.

Gu Chengrui nodded and followed them. After heading up the mountains, he finally saw the two parties confronting each other.

On one side were a group of villagers led by Qian Jiaxi.

On the other side were about a thousand refugees in tattered clothes. Tian Jingzhong exclaimed, Oh my, the number of people is enough to form a large village.

He breathed a sigh of relief because medicinal herbs were in short supply in Qingshui town. If everyone were badly injured, it would be difficult to deal with the following treatments.

After that, the group quickly trekked forward. When they arrived, Tian Jingzhong looked at Qian Jiaxi and asked, Are you guys alright?

Dont worry, my lord. Were fine, and we just suffered some beatings from wooden sticks.

Besides, theyre planning to settle down in our area, so they dont dare to cause too much trouble.

Tian Jingzhong nodded and went forward. Who can understand our words? Send a representative over and well have a good talk.

Me, someone said. A six-foot-tall man raised his hand and stood up.

At the same time, when the crowd behind them saw Gu Chengruis group of men, they immediately buzzed and murmured with excitement; some even cried with joy.

From the looks and clothes of Gu Chengruis group, these refugees knew that although they had suffered from the drought, the situation wasnt serious. The refugees knew they could finally stop and take a rest.

Tian Jingzhong waved at the big guy and asked, after he leaned over, Im the village constable of Qingshui town. Where did you come from? What kind of disaster did your hometown suffer?

Im Hu Chun, and I used to be a bodyguard.

Our group came from the Hui province and pa.s.sed through the Qi Mountain. Hu Chun paused and explained, When our hometown was flooded, we hid in the mountains.

After that, because our refuge spot was far away and our village was destroyed, everyone from nearby villages decided to go up the mountains after some discussion.

Several villages? There must be many who didnt make it along the way, right? Tian Jingzhongs eyes swept over everyone as he spoke with a heavy expression.

Right, only one-third of us are left. Hu Chun replied with a heavy nod..
