At this time, the old lady's granddaughter, a girl named "Zhen'er", came with a bowl of porridge and said to the old lady in a low voice: "Grandma, the noble man saved my father and got his magic medicine.
It will be fine, and my brother will be fine too..."
The old woman was silent for a moment, let out a long sigh, and finally spoke: "To be honest with you, my son and grandson's illnesses were brought from their mother's womb. Normally, nothing happens, but once they get sick, their whole body will be on fire."
It's the same, the pain is excruciating, if you can get through it, you're lucky, but if you can't get through it, it will be just like last night, if no noble person comes to help, my son will die."
The old woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, looking miserable.
Feng Danyuan glanced at Zhen'er: "This strange disease only spreads to men but not to women?"
The old woman nodded.
Feng Danyuan thought for a moment and said: "If this is the case, then you can only take medicine that can quickly cool down the body when you are sick. I will give you all the antipyretic medicines and leave a prescription for antipyretics.
For curative effect, you can go to the nearby mountains to collect the herbs in the prescription."
The old woman and Zhen'er were very surprised.
There was no pen and paper at home, so Feng Danyuan had to ask the two of them to memorize the prescription. Knowing that this prescription was of great importance, the two of them naturally remembered it very seriously.
The family sent Feng Danyuan away with great gratitude.
As soon as he left the village where the old woman was, Feng Danyuan immediately ordered Feng Cheng and the others: "Find a way to confirm what the old woman said."
"Yes." Feng Cheng and others returned to the village.
The old woman was obviously hiding something. If Feng Danyuan couldn't figure it out, then his life would have been in vain.
What could an ordinary old woman in a remote village hide? And why should she hide it?
Feng Cheng and others worked swiftly and soon got the result:
What the old woman said was true, but she only told half of it. The other half was that this weird symptom would become more and more serious as she got older. Her husband broke his leg in a fall.
Later, he suffered from high fever and died, and he died before he was forty.
Feng Danyuan frowned slightly, thoughtfully: "This is not something that cannot be said, so why hide it?"
Another subordinate, Feng Xuanze, said: "My subordinates also heard another thing about this village. The village was originally inhabited by a clan named Wang. Seventy or eighty years ago, more than twenty households came to the village.
It is said that they came here to escape famine. The patriarch surnamed Wang was kind-hearted and took them in. Among them were the ancestors of the old woman. But for some unknown reason, once the men of these more than 20 households fell ill, they would become hot all over. In addition to
The two men, who had neither any disease nor any injuries, lived past fifty, while the others died in their twenties and thirties."
"In remote places, people believe in ghosts and gods. Over time, there are rumors that these more than 20 families are cursed. The Wang clan once planned to expel them from the village, but over the years, they have married and have descendants.
, Expelling them is equivalent to expelling one's own descendants. Secondly, due to the early death of the male members, most of the once more than 20 households are now just old, weak, women and children. They look pitiful, and over time, no one will mention them. "
After Feng Danyuan heard this, he felt more and more weird about it.
He told Feng Xuan: "Take some people to find out where these twenty families came from and why they moved."
After a slight pause, he added: "Check their ancestors."
