Wei Ci took a deep breath. He had to work harder to find a way to deal with the Drought Corpse, otherwise his whole family would be in danger.

Thinking of today's dangerous situation, Wei Ci was still frightened. If Shen Nan hadn't arrived in time, he might have died by now.

The experiences these days have been a test for their mental growth.

Wei Ci closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep.

The next day.

Sunlight shines into the house through the wooden windows, making the room warm.

"Aha~" Wei Ci opened his eyes and stretched.

As soon as he got up, he felt sticky all over his body. He wiped his forehead and got sweat on his hands.

"Why is it so hot?" It's only late March, it shouldn't be this hot.

Yes, it's the heat, and the cicadas are chirping in the forest, which makes people feel upset and irritable early in the morning, especially in the morning.

Wei Ci changed into a pair of thin clothes and went out. As soon as he walked out of the room, he suddenly felt chest tightness and shortness of breath. His face turned ugly and he quickly held on to the door frame.

He has always been in good health, how could he suddenly have this symptom and become so weak and weak? This is something he has never encountered before.

Could it be that he was also poisoned by corpse poison? Thinking of this, Wei Ci felt a chill in his heart.

This corpse poison is extremely powerful. If it is really poisoned, then other people must be like him, so who will protect their family.

"Ahem!" Wei Ci couldn't help but cough dryly. He felt very bad at this moment. He felt pain all over his body, and even his internal organs felt as if they were being torn apart.

"Wei Ci, what's wrong with you?" Shen Yue was shocked when she saw him like this, and quickly ran forward to help him.

"I'm fine...I just..." Wei Ci reluctantly spoke.

"You're sick, come back with me quickly, I'll go find Xiaoqi," Shen Yue anxiously pulled him to lie down on the bed.

Wei Ci didn't want Ah Yue to run around like this, but now his body couldn't exert any strength at all. He was dragged by Shen Yue and lay directly on the bed. Then she went to find Xu Qi. As expected, everyone was hit.

Xu Qi gave him glutinous rice water to drink, lit glutinous rice incense in the room, and gave the room to the young couple.

Wei Ci stood up immediately and pulled Shen Yue to sit down, "I'm fine, there's no need to bother anyone."

"You're like this and you're saying it's okay?" Shen Yue glared at him, "If you are so impulsive next time, see if I don't remove your legs."

"Are you willing to do so?" Wei Ci smiled.

"I'm willing to give it up," Shen Yue said affirmatively.

"Say what you don't want to say, tell me, tell me!" This man was acting coquettishly!

"Okay, let's forget I'm afraid of you." After touching his head, Wei Ci fell asleep after a while.

Nian looked at the children who were still alive and kicking yesterday, but today they all fell down, and kept mumbling about God's blessing.

The task of looking after the house was now left to Shen Nan and the others.

She took a telescope and patrolled back and forth in the village. There were very few corpses during the day, and they were all gray-skinned corpses. She didn't see any of the green-skinned corpses she saw last night.

She felt strange, but didn't think much about it and continued to monitor.

After night fell, Wei Ci opened his eyes again. The pain in his chest had eased a lot. Wei Yi and the others had similar symptoms.

"I'm fine now. Thank you, Miss Xu, for saving my life." Wei Ba bowed to Xu Qi and expressed his gratitude.

Seeing that he was fine, Xu Qi also had a smile on his face.

"I hope you're fine," she said. She found these people quite pleasing to her, so it didn't matter if they helped.

Nian said from the side: "Yes, it's fine."

Throughout the whole day, Xu Qi did not go out to work. Instead, he stayed here and watched these young men.

Although they were injured, their lives were not in danger and they only needed to lie down for a few days.

Who would have thought that she, a doctor, would do the work a Taoist priest should do, detoxifying corpses all day long. But she can only do simple things. If she encounters a more serious corpse poison, she will definitely not be able to cure it.

Shen Nan bought a hundred kilograms of glutinous rice in the mall and kept it at home for emergencies. It was strange that these people were poisoned one after another.

Wei Ci ate a glutinous rice ball and drank a bowl of porridge, feeling much better.

"Do you think it's getting hotter and hotter today?" Sanwa held her collar, made her hands into a small fan shape, and kept fanning her.

"I also feel that, especially after eating, I feel hotter." Weiba touched his hot face.

Everyone looked outside, and saw a bright sun hanging high above their heads. The sun was scorching in the sky, and the sky and the earth were scorching hot. Such a temperature was indeed a bit scary.

"It's only March, why is it so hot?" Xu Qi asked.

"This year's drought may be worse than last year." Shen Yue gently touched her belly and spoke leisurely.

Wei Ci nodded, "Maybe, it's okay here. Yanjing and the northern state capitals have suffered from severe drought in the past two years."

Shen Nan felt that the speed of the temperature rise was a bit scary. While everyone was busy working, she bought a temperature gun and measured the indoor temperature. She saw that it was already [-] degrees.

She measured it again in a place with direct sunlight, and it was 37 degrees.

It's so hot, hotter than the four big stoves.

Although it is true that the temperature in some cities can reach more than 30 degrees in March, that is modern times, economic development, and vegetation degradation.

But in ancient times, the ecological environment was so good that it was a bit strange that such a high temperature could occur.

Seeing that everyone was so hot, Nian went to the kitchen to cook mung bean soup. Shen Nan took out ten cattail fans from the storage room and distributed them to everyone.

"Second girl, how come your family has everything? It's incredible!" Wei suddenly spoke.

"That's not true. When we first separated last year, we didn't even have beds or bedding. We relied on the help of the villagers so that we could barely live in it. Later, we bought this house and added a lot of things one after another. That's not all. Yes." Shen Nan sighed.

Everyone nodded. They heard these things from the young master.

I also know some.

Shen Yue smiled but said nothing.

Nian: "Hey, now that we've started doing this, we don't know when it will rain. It's going to be hard on our people!"

The people in the town and county have lost the relief food, and now more than half of them are dead.

The corpse was thrown outside the city by the officials, and was soon eaten by other corpses, leaving no bones.

Thinking of this, the county magistrate felt a little sad. In the past few months, he had tried to find ways to provide relief, but unfortunately the drought came so suddenly that it was too late.

The people were dead and injured, and he could save one but not that. He didn't know medical skills, so all he could do was watch the people starve and suffer, but there was nothing he could do.

"Sir, the drought has been really severe in the past few years. I heard Uncle Ma say that this year's drought is more severe than last year. I think this year's drought may be more than just one." Master said.

The county magistrate also nodded after hearing this.

He also thought about this problem. Last year's drought only happened in the north, but this year it affected them.
