Chapter 112: Bolt
The young boy named Shuanzi had no choice but to support his grandfather and walk back dejectedly.
Jiang Jiao went over and called them.
"Young man, wait a minute."
The boy turned his head and looked at Jiang Jiao who was holding him. Is this sister a fairy? The boy didn't know how to describe it, he just felt like fireworks exploded in his mind.
"Young man, do you want to take grandpa to see a doctor?" Jiang Jiao asked again.
The boy was a little dazed and didn't respond.
Or it was his grandfather who coughed a few times.
"I don't know, what do you want to see us about?"
The girl was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and it was obvious that she was not an ordinary person. The old man was a little trembling.
"The doctors in our clinic go to other places for free medical consultations every month. Today they are here. If you need to see a doctor, you can go there."
Jiang Jiao pointed them in the direction. Although the identities were made up, the free clinic was real.
The young man's eyes lit up after hearing this.
"Really? Is the free clinic free?"
Jiang Jiao gave him a positive answer. The young man happily followed Jiang Jiao and the others. They were all on the main road, so there was no question of whether to cheat or not.
Si Ze was still counting leaves there boredly.
From a distance, I saw Jiang Jiao bringing an old man and a young boy over.
"Still no one is coming?" Jiang Jiao asked.
"Yeah, this sign has been up for a long time, but no one has come. By the way, who are these two?"
Jiang Jiao briefly explained the matter to Si Ze.
Then I heard Shuanzi ask in a low voice: "Sister, is this the place for the free clinic? Where is the doctor?"
Jiang Jiao nodded: "Yes, didn't you see the sign hanging here? And this is the doctor. Don't be fooled by his young age, he comes from a family of medicine and has a long history of medical knowledge."
Shuanzi scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Well, I can't read."
Jiang Jiao suddenly had an idea: "Hey, Si Ze, this couldn't be the reason why we don't have anyone."
Si Ze hasn’t reacted yet: “What (???.???)????”
Jiang Jiao: "Because they can't read, they don't know why you are setting up a stall here."
Si Ze also reacted and realized that he had never expected this. What a mistake.
But there are a few people who want to see a doctor. Then go first.
Si Ze treated the old man seriously.
And prescribed medicine.
Shuanzi held the prescription and asked, "Is the medicine in this prescription expensive?"
Si Ze thought for a moment. "Well, it's getting late. Take me back to where you live. The herbs here are very common in the mountains and wild areas.
I'll take you to see it. Then you can dig it up and make medicine for your grandfather."
Shuanzi was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately thanked him.
Leading them towards home. Because there was a horse carriage, Jiang Jiao and the others sat in the carriage, and the others could sit in the front of the carriage if they squeezed in.
Arrived at a small village nearby.
Si Ze took Shuanzi to identify the herbs.
The old man took out the fruits he picked from home and gave them to Jiang Jiao and the others to eat.
Several people sat in the yard and chatted.
When talking about this disease.
The old man suddenly sighed: "Alas, it's all retribution, it's all retribution."
Jiang Jiao always felt that something was wrong here. So she asked, "What retribution?"
The old man sighed and said, "Children, you are from outside the country and you don't even know it. This epidemic started when the former county magistrate disappeared.
This must be the county magistrate coming to seek revenge. Alas, we are so sorry to the county magistrate." The old man was a little emotional.
After Jiang Jiao comforted the old man, she heard a heartbreaking story from him.
a year ago
A county magistrate came to Pingshui County.
He was the new top scholar this year. Young and promising, he took his wife with him to take up his post. In just a few months, Pingshui County was governed so well that no one would pick up things on the road and no one would lock their doors at night.
The people all praised the county magistrate as a good official. Even when they met him on the road, they would greet him cordially.
until one day.
A group of human traffickers who specialize in human trafficking came to the county.
The county magistrate's men kept disappearing.
This is a big case.
More and more people come to report the case.
The county magistrate was so anxious that he was exhausted and couldn't sleep.
After his tireless investigation, he finally found the clue.
However, if the criminal could commit the crime so brazenly, it is certain that he has a backer.
When the county magistrate arrested a ringleader, someone came to warn him not to pursue the case further.
The water here is very deep.
But seeing the pain of the relatives of the missing people in the county, the young county magistrate did not give up the justice in his heart and continued to investigate quietly.
Until he found decisive evidence.
He planned to bypass his superiors and go directly to the Governor's Office.
In this way, he set out with hope. But he did not expect that what awaited him was a bottomless abyss. He secretly informed the governor.
They just said they would come to investigate and asked him to go back and wait. But when he got home, he saw the house turned into ashes and the remains of his wife who was five months pregnant.
The fire was so big that it burned all night long.
That night, not even one person came to put out the fire, because the thugs were shouting that whoever dared to put out the fire would have their house burned down next.
No one dared to come out, so everyone kept their doors and windows closed. The fire that night broke the backbone of the young county magistrate. Ironically, it was a long time later.
The perpetrators and the masterminds behind the violence have not been punished. How absurd and ridiculous.
Later, the young county magistrate disappeared and no one knew his whereabouts.
But within a few months, a serious disease swept the entire Feng'an. At first, no one cared.
They all thought it was just an ordinary fever.
Until one person after another died and one person after another became sick.
The situation became increasingly serious until it reached the point today. Everyone said that the ghost of the young county magistrate had returned to seek revenge.
But this rumor was also suppressed until no one dared to mention it.
The reason why the old man told this story to Jiang Jiao and the others was probably because he held a glimmer of hope that he could help the young county magistrate seek a fair trial.
He has lived long enough and met many people. He always feels that these noble people must have some background.
They failed to stand up back then, so now he, who feels guilty, should do his best. His backbone should not be crushed.
The injustice here should not be buried.
Jiang Jiao didn't know what to say after hearing this story. She was still thinking about it on the way back.
"What are you thinking about?" In the carriage, Si Ze looked at the two little girls who looked thoughtful.
Jiang Jiao really didn't want to tell this story, so she asked Ah Qi and Si Ze to explain.
Ah Qi told Si Ze the story he had just heard with a heavy expression.
Si Ze also fell silent. After returning, Si Ze called the men in black.
"Go check what's on this." Si Ze handed the man in black a note.
