Gu Huai'an lowered his eyes, saying that he was unshakable is a lie. Up to now, no source of infection has been found, and people are dying every day, and it has even spread to the entire city.

He can't joke about the remaining lives, but...

Gu Huai'an turned his head and looked towards the gate of the city. Below were the fleeing people.

Gu Changning on the side saw Gu Huaian's hesitation, felt overjoyed, and continued to increase his firepower: "It's not that we don't rescue, but that we can't find the source of the infection now. We have no way of knowing what kind of infectious disease it is. It can’t be saved, no one knows whether these people have pathogens on them, we can’t let the rest of the people have accidents!”

What Gu Changning said was awe-inspiring, and he was completely thinking about the people behind him.

Gu Huaian took a deep look at the people below, and finally made a choice.

"Listen to my order, set fire!" The tone was chilling and helpless, coming from his helplessness of being powerless to save people.

"Don't set fire! Absolutely don't set fire!"

Feng Xiaojin's voice came from behind.

Gu Huai'an and the two looked at the same time, only to see Feng Xiaojin rushing over with something in his hand.

Gu Huai'an frowned slightly, strode up to her, and said disapprovingly, "Why are you here? This is not where you should be, go back quickly."

"I found the antidote!" Feng Xiaojin looked at Gu Huaian seriously, and handed the package in front of him, "This is the antidote, don't set it on fire."

Even if Gu Hai'an's actions at this moment are righteous, he can't set fire to it, even if the world knows that he is doing it for the rest of the city.

But morally, Gu Huai'an is a ruthless person!
Such a person is bound to be criticized, known by his political opponents, and will definitely be used to attack him. She cannot and does not want to see Gu Huaian suffer from such a situation.

"What did you say?" Gu Huaian blinked, looking at the package in Feng Xiaojin's hand in disbelief.

Gu Changning even walked up to the two of them, and questioned in disbelief: "Are you sure this is really the antidote? I'm afraid it's not poison. If you eat a dead person, the crime will be even greater!"

A trace of anger flashed in Feng Xiaojin's eyes, but she also knew that this was not the time to quarrel with Gu Changning, so she looked at Gu Huai'an seriously: "This is the prescription I read from an ancient book, and I will guarantee it with a human head. Real poison, life and death are at stake now, there is a glimmer of hope, we have to give it a try, we can't just give them up like this!"

Feng Xiaojin took a deep breath and continued: "If you are really worried, then tell them when you send out the summary, and let them make the decisions. After all, this is their fate."

Even if the antidote doesn't work at that time, they will choose it themselves, and people in the world cannot use this as an excuse to criticize Gu Huai'an.

Although he didn't say anything, Gu Huaian still felt Feng Xiaojin's deep meaning. He was not willing to set fire to kill people, but now there is another unknown choice, so why not choose this one?
He took the package from Feng Xiaojin's hand, "I'm going to inform the people below now."

Gu Changning, who had been watching the excitement, did not expect that Gu Huaian would actually agree, and when he turned to leave, he immediately reached out and stopped him.

"You are crazy! What are you kidding at this time, what if this kind of medicine with no experimental results is poison!"

"That's better than killing them all!" Feng Xiaojin sternly reprimanded, looking at Gu Changning sharply: "What are you planning, why do you repeatedly hinder us from saving people? Say, this plague is related to you!"

This startled Gu Changning a lot, it simply implied that he was the one who poisoned him.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Gu Changning looked at Feng Xiaojin angrily, not daring to stop the two of them.

"Okay, I won't set fire, but I don't allow them to enter the city either. If you want to distribute the antidote, yes, you must give it to me outside the city."

"Okay." Gu Huaian agreed. He walked to the front and shouted to the people downstairs: "I know you want to enter the city, but we can't guarantee whether you carry pathogens on your body. For the sake of the people behind me, I can't be the master of this."

When the people below heard this, their faces became even more ashamed, even despairing, they looked up at Gu Huai'an above, a panicked crowd broke out, and someone questioned Gu Huai'an: "Marshal Gu, are you going to give up on us? Could it be that our fate is not our fate!"

"Of course not!" Gu Huaian denied, looked at the crowd and continued: "I have the antidote in my hand now, because it has just been developed, and we don't know when this section will take effect, so I decided that I will bring the doctor The antidote will be distributed to you outside the city, but during this period, you need to wait outside for the effect of the medicine to take effect."

After finishing speaking, Gu Huaian didn't understand the reaction of those people, so he went downstairs directly, followed by Feng Xiaojin.

Gu Huaian didn't agree at first, but Feng Xiaojin looked at him firmly, "I want to be with you, no matter what happens."

Facing her firmness, Gu Huai'an felt sore after the warm current passed by, and finally nodded in response.

With Gu Huaian's promise, the moment the city gate opened, although the refugees were agitated, they still did not break through the city gate.

Because Gu Huaian did not give up on them.

Gu Huaian said he would do it, and brought Feng Xiaojin's best antidote to the people one by one, but they had too few antidotes and too many people, so Feng Xiaojin finally gave the prescription to the doctors and asked them to quickly prepare the antidote in the city .

During the period of taking the medicine, Feng Xiaojin and Gu Huaian paid close attention to the person who took the antidote.

Not only their hearts are hanging, everyone's hearts are hanging, fearing that the antidote will be useless, fearing that the last ray of hope will be wiped out.

Feng Xiaojin walked a certain distance and met Gu Huai'an. The distance was not long, but she had already heard many people's prayers, praying for Buddhas, gods, and even the gods of the West.

She sat next to Gu Huaiandu, looked at the crowd, and said in a low voice, "I hope this antidote will be useful, and it won't kill people."

Gu Huaian held her hand and comforted her: "It will be useful, it will definitely be useful."

He was also very worried in his heart, but now he couldn't show anything wrong, so as to wipe out the hope in their hearts.

After waiting until the evening, with the help of those doctors, the people outside the city took the antidote.

Suddenly, someone's stomach rang, and Feng Xiaojin didn't realize until now that these refugees hadn't even eaten a single drop of water.

She looked up at Gu Huai'an, and just about to speak, Gu Huai'an said, "I'll give the order now to have someone bring out the food."

Gu Huai'an immediately ordered the people around him, "Take the money and go to the grain store in the city, buy a hundred catties of rice and fifty catties of vegetables, and then ask a few people to bring firewood and pots, and we will bury them outside." Pot to make rice."

The man moved quickly, and after 15 minutes, two large bags of rice were brought in, followed by several people holding firewood and pots.

They chose a flat bottom and immediately buried the pot to make rice. Because there were too many refugees, Feng Xiaojin immediately asked people to chop up the vegetables and put them into the rice to cook porridge.

She was busy with the others, and Gu Huaian didn't take a break, leading others to maintain order.

Gu Changning upstairs looked at this scene with disdain in his eyes, but he didn't stop him.

He looked at the watch on his wrist, it was already six o'clock, and it was night, if it didn't have any effect, he wouldn't hesitate too much and set fire directly.

Just as he was making up his mind, a voice suddenly erupted from the crowd.

"Master! The fever is gone, his fever is gone!"

Gu Huai'an, who was on patrol, was taken aback for a moment, and soon came back to his senses, leaving behind the person behind him and rushing to that person's side.
Feng Xiaojin, who was serving porridge, also hurriedly put down the pot and spoon in his hand, and rushed in front of the man.

It was one of the doctors who spoke, and he looked into Gu Huaian's eyes without any timidity, and said ecstatically, "His fever is gone, as long as the fever is gone, the condition can be brought under control."

It seems that luck was brought back, and one after another, some people had their fever gone.

Hope rose in everyone's hearts, but Gu Huai'an was cautious, and still didn't want people to enter the city. Fortunately, there was a temple not far outside the city. Wait and watch.

An old man, supported by his son, walked in front of Gu Huaian and Feng Xiaojin.

The two were thinking about the old man's actions just now, but unexpectedly the old man knelt down with his son, and said gratefully: "Thank you Marshal Gu, thank you Miss Feng, if it weren't for you, we would have become lonely ghosts long ago , you are our reborn parents."

Gu Huaian and Feng Xiaojin were shocked, and the victims also reacted at this time, and quickly knelt down to thank them.

If it weren't for them, they would have died long ago.

The common people are not fools either. Although they couldn't see Gu Changning's actions, they vaguely guessed them.

When Feng Xiaojin came back to his senses, he immediately knelt down and helped the old man in front of him.

"Get up, old man, this is what we should do."

Gu Huaian also stepped forward to help.

The two were praised by everyone, and seeing that it was getting late, Gu Huaian didn't let Feng Xiaojin stay outside.

The two of them returned home, and after washing up, they went to the study.

"Today's antidote was found by the dagger in the storage cabinet." Feng Xiaojin looked at Gu Huaian and said.

"I got it."

"Then you must not have guessed that the source of the plague is water. Someone poisoned the water, and everyone in the east of the city drank the water, so they contracted the plague." Feng Xiaojin felt angry when he thought of this. Who actually disregarded the people and used such a vicious strategy.

"Thank you for your hard work today. I will investigate this murderer." Gu Huaian's eyes flashed fiercely, and he would never let that person go.

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "You have become my right-hand man now, Han Qi complained to me the day before yesterday, if this continues, his status will be lost."

Feng Xiaojin really wanted to say yes, but her eyelids became heavier, and finally she couldn't hold on anymore, her body softened, and she fell down in front of Gu Huaian.

Gu Huaian stood up quickly, walked quickly to Feng Xiaojin, carried her out of the study, and yelled at the butler downstairs: "Call the doctor!"
