I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him
Chapter 305: Things outside the body
"Then don't save him?" Xu Shu asked.
"It is possible to save him." Mu Jinghua thought for a moment, "There are conditions."
"What conditions?" Mu Tonghai suddenly felt something was wrong.
"I haven't thought about it yet." Mu Jinghua took out a white porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Xu Shu, "This is the antidote, but now those who have been poisoned are all at home, and there is a war outside the city..."
He frowned and suddenly realized something was wrong: "Who is guarding the city gate?"
"Qiao Jianhong." Xu Shu coughed lightly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"You know he's not dead." Mu Jinghua narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "Is it Qiao?"
"No." Xu Shu blamed Mu Tonghai, "He did it."
Mu Tonghai widened his eyes and coughed up blood.
Mu Jinghua looked at him, and he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth carelessly and smiled weakly: "My friend, there is a misunderstanding between us."
Mu Jinghua ignored him and turned to look at Xu Shu: "Can Qiao Jianhong handle delivering medicine door to door?"
"Is this antidote necessary to be taken?" Xu Shu said in a different tone, "Can I apply it on the wound?"
"No, the poison will take effect and the internal organs will bleed." Mu Jinghua snorted, "Tell them to come and get it themselves."
"He's so sick that he can't even get out of bed." Xu Shu smiled helplessly, "Just like yesterday, dissolve it in water and take it."
"But there are more than 10,000 people drinking our wedding wine. When will we be able to send them all? And how can we convince them to drink it?"
"No need to convince, they will buy it on their own."
"purchase?"
"Yes." Xu Shu looked at Mu Tonghai, "Aristocratic family, aristocratic family, without money, is it still aristocratic family?"
Mu Tonghai was stunned and coughed up blood again, "What do you want to do?"
"Just saving people."
Mu Tonghai didn't understand, and Mu Jinghua was also puzzled, but Xu Shu just asked: "How many people in your house can still move?"
"There was something wrong with the food yesterday. All the dogs in the mansion are lying down, and no one can move."
"So cruel?" Xu Shu glanced at Mu Jinghua.
Mu Jinghua was aggrieved: "Who told him to threaten me?"
"Okay." Xu Shu nodded, a little helpless, "Then we'll just randomly pick a sucker."
The residence of the Minister of Rites next door was in chaos and confusion.
All the nobles in the mansion were infected with an epidemic disease overnight, and they kept coughing up blood. The doctors called in the mansion shook their heads and said there was no cure. The servants cried or ran away, and some loyal old servants knelt in the ancestral hall and begged their ancestors for blessings.
Xu Shu kicked the door and rushed in. No one stopped him. He walked into the house in such a swagger and went straight to the dragon's nest.
Some people saw him dressed gorgeously, like a rich man, and saluted him politely, so he grabbed the strong men and asked: "Is your master sick?"
"It's not just our master who's sick." The servant was carrying a bundle, obviously ready to run away. "Everyone in the mansion has fallen ill. What do you want to talk to our master about?"
"Does he know he's wrong?"
"You know... you know you are wrong?" The man rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Sir, do you have an answer?"
"This is a punishment from heaven." Xu Shu pointed to the sky, "The noble families and gentry swore an oath of blood to offer sacrifice to the heaven."
"Sacrifice... sacrifice to the heaven?" The man trembled with fear, and then heard the young man in front of him sigh, "It's just that Feng Dan saw through the secret of heaven and planned in advance, choosing today to attack the city and destroy Dajing without leaving anything."
"It was not their intention to cause so much suffering. So I came to give you another chance."
"Are you willing to tell your master this?" Xu Shu stood with his hands behind his back. "If you don't want to, just pretend I haven't been here today. Hurry up and run. It will take some time before the city gate is breached."
"I am willing, I am willing." The man knelt on the ground in fear and kowtowed to Xu Shu, "My whole family is here in Beijing. Even if I leave, how can I leave cleanly?"
Xu Shu interrupted him: "In my place, people are equal, so you don't have to kowtow to me."
The man was stunned, then knelt on the ground awkwardly, not knowing how to react for a moment.
Xu Shu urged him, and he hurriedly got up and staggered over, shouting as he ran: "Immortal, immortal is here to save me! Master, Master is saved!"
Xu Shu: ...
He didn't expect that the effect of making up this paragraph would be so good.
However, it was a good start, and things became much simpler afterwards. The seriously ill and dying Shangshu and his family had no intention of judging the truth of Xu Shu's words.
Even though they were full of doubts, their unwillingness to face death forced them to believe it, and they even dragged their sick bodies to come and meet Xu Shu.
Seeing that the Shangshu was old and frail, Xu Shu did not keep him in suspense and asked directly, "Ji Ran, Lord Ji, are you willing to give up your belongings in exchange for the recovery of your wife and children?"
"Do you recognize me?" Ji Ran coughed twice, sat on the armchair, and squinted his eyes. "Xu Shu, who gave you the courage to talk to me like this? This is simply disrespectful to the elderly, you should be punished!"
Xu Shu was not surprised to be recognized, after all, most of the sick people had come to his wedding banquet. Although this old man did not come, he was obviously counted among them by Mu Tonghai and Xiao Mujin, and did not escape.
Xu Shu took out the antidote Mu Jinghua gave him from his arms and shook it in front of him: "You really deserve to be the Minister of Rites. Forgive my disrespect, and don't be angry. I'm leaving now."
Xu Shu turned around and walked out, but was stopped by a female voice: "Sir, please stay."
Xu Shu turned around and saw a white-haired woman, who looked haggard and miserable. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Junior greets the old lady."
He said he was paying his respects, but he didn't do anything. Minister Ji couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to scold him, but he couldn't catch his breath and coughed up blood.
The woman hurriedly asked, "Mr. Xu, what you have in your hand... is it the medicine that can save my family's lives?"
"That's right, but there are conditions for me to save people."
Xu Shu patiently repeated what he had just said to deceive the servants, and sincerely said that taking away their "personal belongings" was just a way to test their sincerity.
But he was very patient. The dying Minister Ji and his wife couldn't wait any longer, especially the wife. After listening to Xu Shu's description of his belongings, she said bluntly, "Take everything you want. You're already dead, so what's the point of keeping these?"
"Madam, you are very insightful." Xu Shu responded with a smile, taking out a pill from his hand, "Boil this pill into soup and distribute it to everyone."
“What if it doesn’t work?” The Shangshu blew his beard and glared.
"You have so many people in your house, and you can't deal with me?" Xu Shu smiled at him, "As for personal belongings... I think there are accounts in the storehouse of your house, so we can just follow what's recorded there."
Xu Shu found a chair, crossed his legs, and called out rudely, "Please bring me a cup of tea."
The servant outside heard the noise and came in with a bitter face. He poured tea for Xu Shu and was called by Xu Shu again: "Brother, please sort out the money and property according to the accounts of the mansion, and find someone else to boil medicine for the nobles."
The servant looked at Minister Ji and got his permission before saying, "Yes."
Xu Shu then drank his tea slowly and leisurely.
The medicine was naturally boiled first. After they drank it, the effect was immediately seen. They coughed a few times and spit out black blood, and then they felt refreshed.
This person is very energetic.
Xu Shu thought, maybe something bad is going to happen.
No, he doesn't mind. There are still many people to be dealt with later. In order to prevent accidents, it is better to kill a few first to serve as a warning to others.
But this time he was wrong.
Although this old man is old-fashioned and polite, he is not a mean person. He does not regret what he promised. However, he dislikes Xu Shu's laziness and rudeness, so his attitude towards him is still cold.
Xu Shu didn't mind. Seeing him open the warehouse door openly, he also opened his space ring openly and accepted everything.
In an instant, the room that was originally full was empty.
Minister Ji couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Monster...monster?"
Xu Shu looked slightly hurt and said, "I clearly saved you, why am I still being called a monster?"
Madam Ji reacted quickly. She immediately punched Minister Ji and shouted, "Immortal, Immortal, please have mercy on me."
"After you take the medicine, go and tell your relatives and friends about this news," Xu Shu did not refute, "and be sure to explain that you need to hand over your belongings."
"If someone doesn't want to, don't force him, just let him die."
