Chapter 586 Court Death in Various Ways

The surrounding women gradually woke up as well. These experienced mothers came over to join Xiao Yixin’s cousin-in-law in urging Lin Mengya to have a baby.

Lin Mengya laughed so hard for a long while that she finally ran out of the tent awkwardly with a stiff face.

It was no wonder that during her postgraduate study, her roommates would rather work outside than go home for the Spring Festival.

Not everyone could stand being urged by a group of people at the same time.

However, she found this kind of ordinary trouble particularly novel.

In fact, she didn’t find it annoying.

After calming down a little, Lin Mengya decided to go to check on the food prepared for the mothers in person.

Although she was not an obstetrician, she knew something about it.

What happened yesterday must have frightened the newborn babies’ mothers terribly. Without psychological interference and enough nutrition, there might be a big problem with their health condition.

Among the babies here, the oldest ones were only a month old, and the youngest ones were born just a few days ago.

Therefore, there were some things that could not be taken lightly.

Although the isolated camp was not big, Long Tianyu had sent people to deliver the best food and daily necessities.

There was no shortage of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea. More importantly, he had sent people to deliver meat last night.

Several diligent and capable old women were cooking. Lin Mengya glanced at them and found that everything was going on in an orderly way.

Since that was the case, she was relieved.

“Madam, how can you come here? You’d better go out and wait for a moment. The meal will be prepared soon.”

As soon as she entered the door, old women turned around and greeted her one after another.

Young women had the guts to joke with Lin Mengya.

However, these old women, who had been well-behaved during their lifetime, did not dare to forget the rules for a moment.

Lin Mengya had talked to them a few times, but all she could do was to make them less cautious.

“It’s fine. I just come here to take a look. Thank you for your hard work these days. I express gratitude on behalf of His Highness here. I don’t have much experience in this, so I have to trouble you to help me.”

Lin Mengya said with a modest smile. Hearing her words, the old women showed smiles which drove all the hard lines on their faces and brightened their countenances.

“Don’t mention it. We are glad that we can help you. The babies are innocent, and so are their mothers. Our grandchildren are around their age. No one knows if our grandchildren will be hurt next.”

One of the old women said with a sigh. Hearing this, Lin Mengya was moved.

“What about the other babies? In addition to these babies, have there ever been other babies buried alive?”

The old woman shook her head while looking at Lin Mengya hesitantly. It seemed that she had something hard to tell.

Lin Mengya, of course, was a smart person. From the man collecting water this morning to everyone’s reaction, all of these explained a lot of things.

Besides, with too many people around, it was naturally not appropriate for them to talk at the moment.

Lin Mengya changed the subject. After giving some detailed instructions, she left the tent that served as a temporary kitchen.

There was a hint of seriousness on her face.

What had she neglected behind this?

As the smoke cured up from kitchen chimneys, people began to bustle at the camps on both sides of the river.

What happened yesterday turned into a shadow separating the people on both sides of the river.

Only the innocent children seemed to have forgotten the grief of yesterday.

At this moment, they stood by the river with a curious look and seemed to be looking at the isolation campsite across the river.

Conspiracies were just something inexplicable they heard from the adults.

Only children could keep the last bit of their innocence.

Hot breakfast refreshed those mothers.

Lin Mengya and Xiu had been busy for the whole morning. Fortunately, they came in time, so the mothers and their babies were in good condition.

However, she finally detected the Venomous Armored Insects in the way Xiu suggested.

It was so vicious that the insect eggs were planted in the babies’ hearts.

If she applied for the medicine regardless of the consequences, it would probably hurt the heart and lungs of the babies.

In that case, the babies would be close to death.

“Sister, what do you think we should do? These babies are so pitiful. Even if the Venomous Armored Insects aren’t activated, we can’t just leave them where they are now.”

Xiu said with a worried frown. She adored these babies so much that she was reluctant to let any of them get hurt.

“Let me think about it.”

Although her teacher could remove the Venomous Armored Insects, he was not good at it.

Xiu raised venomous insects, but she was just a dabbler. The two of them might make things worse instead.

Although Lin Mengya was anxious, she did not panic.

Sitting on a big stone and watching the mothers playing with their babies, she suddenly had a brainwave.

She was such an idiot! How could she forget such an important thing!

She gently closed her eyes and quickly started to hunt down the images of the Shen Nung system.

There seemed to be a chapter about venomous insects in the Qingzheng Dispensatory.

She activated the search engine. Fortunately, she had her eyes closed now. Otherwise, if someone saw countless words flash across her dark eyes, she would definitely be considered a monster.

Finally, Lin Mengya found the chapter in the Qingzheng Dispensatory.

The Venomous Armored Insect came from the Shi’s Clan which raised venomous insects. It was a brown egg of the size of a rice grain at the beginning and couldn’t break out of the soil until it was planted in the flesh.

The methods of cultivating and using the Venomous Armored Insects were clearly explained in the chapter.

But when Lin Mengya finished reading the chapter, she was a little surprised.

How could it turn out to be this?

As she opened her eyes, those words disappeared in an instant.

Lin Mengya was still immersed in the shock, but she looked a little strange.

Xiu, who had been standing in front of her, tilted her little head in confusion and looked at Lin Mengya, who was smiling or doing something else in front of her.

Lin Mengya was fine just now. Why did she become like this now?

“Sister, are you… okay?”

Xiu asked tentatively in a low voice, as if afraid to disturb someone.

Lin Mengya suddenly raised her head with her eyes full of doubts.

“Xiu, do you know that the Venomous Armored Insects are actually not created to harm people. These babies may have got good out of misfortune.”

Lin Mengya’s words confused Xiu.

Xiu blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Lin Mengya, pouting and waiting for her sister Mengya’s explanation.

“It’s too early to tell you now, but we have to find out the truth. Remember, these babies won’t die, but we can’t tell anyone about it, even teacher and Brother Yixin. You and I have to pretend that we know nothing about it so that those people won’t discover anything.”

Lin Mengya didn’t give an explanation.

However, Xiu was very smart and did not ask any more questions.

Because she believed that what Sister Mengya said could not be wrong.

Xiu nodded, obediently stayed by Lin Mengya’s side, and acted as if nothing had happened.

But Lin Mengya knew that the fight between her and the schemer just began…

In a tent across the river, Long Tianyu was sitting firmly.

He had arranged everything in the refugee camp properly.

With his command and dispatch instead of the idiot’s reckless actions, not only the plague had been controlled effectively, but also the refugees had settled down.

In addition, Lin Mengya stepped forward to save those babies. Although no one said it bluntly, they all preferred Prince Yu’s humanistic care.

Nevertheless, they were still counting on the two doctors surnamed Gu to treat the patients. Sometimes, they had to pretend to be polite and compliant to the two doctors surnamed Gu.

Lin Mengya knew it, and Long Tianyu even knew it more clearly.

“Your Highness, Doctor Gu wants to meet you for something important.”

Li Jia, Long Tianyu’s personal guard, came in to report. Long Tianyu raised his head, glanced at him, and nodded silently.

However, there was a flash of disgust in his eyes.

After a while, Doctor Gu, who was dressed in white silk clothes, swaggered into Long Tianyu’s tent.

He looked at the man, who was reading a bamboo book, with malicious intent in his sinister and vicious eyes.

At the thought that Long Tianyu didn’t see him, he coughed loudly.

However, Long Tianyu still lowered his head and focused on the bamboo book, not inclined to talk to him.

Therefore, the idiot coughed heavily again and almost broke his throat. However, Long Tianyu still acted as if he didn’t notice his existence.

After ignoring the idiot for a long while, Long Tianyu raised his eyes to stare coldly at the guy in front, who had tried in vain to get his attention, and said indifferently.

“What’s the matter?”

He neither showed any politeness nor said any high-sounding words.

Long Tianyu looked at the guy in front of him as if he were looking at a good-for-nothing.

The idiot must have been used to being flattered. Even in front of Long Tianyu, he didn’t restrain himself at all.

Instead, he said after a cold snort.

“Your Highness, you put on great airs. My senior fellow apprentice and I have devoted ourselves entirely to eradicate the plague. You are so haughty towards me, but I’m wondering how you’re going to deal with the plague without us!”

Long Tianyu raised his eyebrows and sneered.

“Well, what do you want?”

The silly doctor thought that Long Tianyu realized his dissatisfaction and was threatened by him.

He sat in the chair on Long Tianyu’s right side directly with arrogance and certainty in his eyes.

“I’m just a civilian who can’t compare with you, the descendants of the royal family. What can I want from you? If you want my senior fellow apprentice and me to stay here to treat the victims, you must send those vile babies back to me. Besides, I want Princess Yu to apologize to me in person!”

A trace of murderous intent appeared in Long Tianyu’s black and cold eyes.

No living person could threaten him.

In other words, those who had threatened him were either dead or close to death.

Obviously, the one in front of him was about to be a dead man.

Closing the bamboo book in his hand, Long Tianyu suddenly lowered his eyes. However, the coldness hidden in his eyes was more than ordinary people could bear.
