Chapter 264: Extremely Vicious

She was speaking the truth. The herbs she had could probably be consumed in a day. She had to send more people to search for them nearby.
It would only cause a further strain on the medicine supply in the military camp if she gave some of these herbs away.
“Well…” Shen Zhuxin eyed An Jiuyue suspiciously.
Is this lady refusing to give us even a single stalk when she has so many medicinal herbs?
She glanced at the man beside An Jiuyue. He was tall, burly, and exuded a faint murderous aura. It was obvious he had a lot of experience in battles.!!
He has a ferocious aura. If I’m not wrong, he must be from the military camp. And if he’s really from the military camp, those herbs must be utterly insufficient.
They won’t be willing to share some herbs with us, but we have no choice but to ask for some first. We have people who are seriously ill.
She glanced at Qi Ye.
Qi Ye took a deep breath and cupped his fists at An Jiuyue and Deputy General Sun.
“I’m Qi Ye, the young master of the 11th village in the 18 Stockaded Villages. We urgently need the Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue flowers. I was wondering if you may spare us some.
“The 18 Stockaded Villages will remember your kindness and repay you in the future.
“We won’t ask for too much. We’ll also send people to search for these medicinal herbs very soon. If you trust me, please tell me your names and addresses. I will personally bring a batch of Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue flowers to thank you.”
Deputy General Sun was shocked. “The 18 Stockaded Villages?!”
I didn’t expect this group of youngsters to be from the 18 Stockaded Villages. Does this mean that there are people there who have contracted the disease?
“You are from the 18 Stockaded Villages?”
An Jiuyue was shocked when she heard Qi Ye’s self-introduction.
They’re actually from the 18 Stockaded Villages? It seems like what I’ve been worried about has happened. Someone really wants to make use of this epidemic to stir up something!
The 18 Stockaded Villages have been sealed off and self-sufficient all along. Moreover, they’re far from the epidemic outbreak because they’re located near the eastern side of the border. Yet, their people contracted the disease.
The people who are secretly exploiting the epidemic must be extremely vicious!
“We are—”
“Here.”
Two bamboo baskets appeared in front of Qi Ye.
He looked down and saw that one bamboo basket contained Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue flowers. The other contained… the medicinal herbs they had seen Shen Zhuxin draw.
“That’s the Moon Whisper Grass.”
He was stunned. He glanced at An Jiuyue and then at Shen Zhuxin.
“Mhm.” Shen Zhuxin nodded and looked at An Jiuyue.
“Miss, can you tell me your name? The 18 Stockaded Villages will definitely reward you for your generosity today—”
“No need.” An Jiuyue raised her hand to interrupt Shen Zhuxin. “Everyone has a part to play in curbing the epidemic. You can use these herbs first.”
With Deputy General Sun by her side, it was not convenient for her to say anything to Shen Zhuxin and the others. Besides, she could not say much to these youngsters either.
“Miss Jiuyue, we…”
Deputy General Sun panicked when he heard An Jiuyue’s words.
The 18 Stockaded Villages did not extend their gratitude to other people often. They could be of great help to the general in the future.
