Space in hand: Genius women engaged in scientific research in ancient times

As for those two people...

It was the woman who had killed someone, so it was not considered an injustice to them.

"Sir, where are we going now?" Zaozhi breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to leave this place of trouble, but it was still dark and there was no other house within ten miles.

"Walk."

Qian Xiao and Zaozhi walked for a while and then stopped at a place with their backs against a big rock. Ask Zaozhi to find some firewood nearby.

Qian Xiao took out a tent from the space and quickly set it up.

When Zaozhi came back, he saw a strange little house-like thing, with the young lady lying and rolling in it.

Xiao Yin and two gray wolves were also lying nearby.

"Huh? Miss, what is this?"

"This is called a tent. Light a fire and take a rest early." Qian Xiao didn't explain much.

Zaozhi didn't ask too many questions. Anyway, it wouldn't be surprising if the young lady did a lot of strange things.

Due to the dry weather, firewood is easy to burn.

Qian Xiao asked Xiaoyin and the others to guard them while she and Zaozhi rested in the tent for the rest of the night.

All night without incident.

The sun rose slowly and Qian Xiao stretched.

"Miss, this thing is so convenient, as soft as a bed."

The two people packed up their tents and let one of the gray wolves carry them on their backs as they were too lazy to carry them.

And they continued to ride Xiaoyin and they continued walking.

After walking and walking, we finally saw a village.

The two of them walked in.

"Sir, there is no one on the street." Zaozhi touched his arm and felt a cool breeze blowing, which was extremely cold.

The two walked for a while and finally knocked on the door of a house.

Qian Xiao wanted to take a good rest, but he couldn't sleep in a tent every day. After walking for so long, he still didn't see any water, and the rivers were all dry.

"Who?" came a voice from inside.

"Hello, my young master and I would like to stay at your place for one night. Is it convenient? We will pay you." Zaozhi said quickly.

"This……"

"Sorry, if it's inconvenient, forget it. Excuse me." Qian Xiao didn't force it.

"Xing'er, open the door and let them in. Ahem, cough, cough."

"Mom...will you..."

"It's okay, Xing'er, cough, cough, cough, they are all poor people. We don't have anything for them to grab, so we should just treat it as a good deed for ourselves in the next life."

There was a conversation inside, apparently between mother and son.

The door was opened, and a skinny middle-aged man appeared in front of Qian and Xiao. The man's face was pale and he was standing a little staggering. It could be seen that he was caused by long-term malnutrition.

"I'm really sorry for disturbing you." Qian Xiao clasped his fists.

"Come in quickly, but I don't have anything to entertain you at home. I'd like to let you have a good night's rest."

The man spoke weakly.

Qian and Xiao entered the house. This family's house was worse than they imagined.

The courtyard was so simple that there was almost no furniture. There were three rooms in total, and the man arranged for them to live in one.

This house has only one bed and no table. It's not that the man deliberately arranged it, but the same situation happened in the other two places.

The kitchen is open-air, with a simple stove set up in the yard.

There was some water in the water tank, but the water was... extremely turbid, as if the stove hadn't been turned on for a long time and was dusty.

"Master... this..." This was the first time for Zao Zhixu to step into such a home. She had never seen such a simple house or a place where people lived.

"Cough cough cough..."

There was a violent coughing in the main room, which seemed to be coughing out the lungs.

"Mom! What's wrong with you? My son is so unfilial. He went out today and didn't find anything when he came back."

"Cough cough cough..." After a while, he said, "Mom, it's okay. You've had a hard day out today, so you should rest early. Mom, maybe your time is running out, so I won't burden you anymore."

"mother……"

If you listen carefully, you can hear a few soft sobs.

"Knock, buck, buck..." Qian Xiao knocked on the door of the main room.

"Auntie, I'm sorry, we haven't thanked you properly yet and caused you trouble."

The man opened the door, and Qian Xiao standing outside immediately smelled a rotten and moldy smell.

"Young master, just stand outside the door. Be careful not to spread the sick energy to you. Have a good night's rest. I just don't have anything to entertain you. I'm really sorry." The aunt's voice came out.

Qian Xiao ignored him and walked straight into the house.

Lying on the bed was a skinny old lady, her clothes hung loosely on her body and her eyes were sunken and lifeless.

There were various ulcers and pus on her face, arms and neck, exuding all kinds of stench.

Qian Xiao took out a mask from his luggage and put it on everyone present.

"Auntie, we know some medical skills, let me show you."

The man next to him was very happy when he heard this, but then he frowned and felt a little embarrassed.

"We...we don't have medical fees..."

"If you are willing to take us in for the night, it will be the most generous medical fee."

Qian Xiao diagnosed the aunt and didn't mind the abscess on her hands at all.

Alas...it's a plague.

Qian Xiao was well prepared. She took out a pill and fed it to her aunt, and then took out a bottle of water for her to drink.

The man saw the clean water in the transparent bottle, licked his split lips, and then looked at the bottle. It looked very strange.

When Qian Xiao saw it, she took out a new bottle of water from her carry-on luggage, and then gave the man a pack of granules so that he wouldn't take it.

He poured the granules into his mouth without hesitation and took a sip of water, not daring to drink more. He wants to keep it for his mother.

Qian Xiao looked at the mother and son and thought to himself, after all, he still retained his simple and kind character. He didn't ask any questions and just ate what he was given.

Not at all defensive about people.

In fact, she didn't know that these two people hadn't eaten for three days and only drank a small sip of water from the large vat every day. Now, even if it was poison, they didn't care.

If you don't eat, you will starve to death.

"Thank you two little brothers." The man put the aunt to sleep. His mother saw that her breathing became much easier and she was finally able to sleep peacefully.

"This water is too precious, please give it back to us..."

The man was a little embarrassed when he thought back to how he looked just now. He ate someone else's food without asking.

"Nothing, we still have some. Your mother has the plague, but you are lucky not to be infected. Take this. The two of you take one pill each morning and evening." Qian Xiao took out four packs. Medicine, two packs are red pills, two packs are yellow pills. Put it in his hand.

Not allowing him to refuse, he turned and left the room.

The red ones of these four packets of medicine are for treating the plague, while the yellow ones are for nutritional supplements for the body. If they can take it on time, they won't starve to death in a short time.

It's just... I definitely need to eat.

Qian Xiao asked Zaozhi to light a fire in the yard first, cook some white porridge, and mix it with some dried meat brought from Niwan Village.

She returned to the room, closed the door and quickly ran into the space.

"Baaa! Hurry! Put water in the bathtub for me, I want to take a bath!!!"
