Chapter 221 - 221 Don’t Try To Run Away



Since she had promised Qiao Heting to save people, she would do her part, whether she was trying to do a good deed or just looking at getting his money.

As for Doctor Jiang, she decided she would teach him a lesson later.

A man like him could only resort to such despicable ways of doing things.

!!

“Qiaoyi Town is already big trouble for the imperial court. We can’t turn the whole of Yuyun County into a dead city, or that bloodsucker of a woman will become more powerful by taking more lives. I’m afraid that even Mingan Province will become a graveyard!” Doctor Jiang continued to yell.

The leader was the head sheriff of Yuyun County, who stared coldly at the villagers of Heyang Village. “Is the evil woman inside?”

Xie Heng looked at him calmly. “She is a doctor, not a devil. This swindler slandered my wife just because she could cure the big belly disease, which stopped him from making a fortune. That’s why he would be so despicable as to do such a thing.”

“If you don’t believe me, why don’t you go to Qiaoyi Town first to see if those patients have gotten better after taking the medicine? If the big belly disease can be cured, it will be a credit to you. Now that Qiaoyi Town is under lockdown, these people are dying anyway, so why don’t you give my wife a chance?”

The officials who originally wanted to take down Zhao Chuchu heard Xie Heng’s words and were somewhat moved.

In fact, they were all born and raised here. Therefore, if all the patients in Qiaoyi Town could be cured, these people would not have to die, and the imperial court would give them credit.

These people couldn’t escape Qiaoyi Town anyway.

“Scholar, is this true?” The sheriff put away his sword and looked at Xie Heng sternly.

Xie Heng said calmly, “Your Excellency has come to Heyang Village so early, so you must not have inquired about the day before yesterday in the town yet. Why don’t you send someone to the town to see if the people my wife treated are still alive and then decide what to do with us?”

Seeing that Xie Heng was so confident and did not have the nobility of a scholar, the sheriff developed a better impression of Xie Heng.

“Okay, then I’ll have someone ask around first. If anyone dies, you are definitely accountable.”

“Don’t worry, sir, we are in Heyang Village. We are not going anywhere.”

“Go to the town and ask around.”

The sheriff waved his hand and ordered two people to leave Heyang Village.

When Doctor Jiang saw this, he hastily stopped those two men and looked at the sheriff. “Sir, this man has got quite the tongue. You can absolutely not trust his words. If there are fewer people, I’m afraid they will incite the people here to rebel so that they can take advantage of the opportunity to escape. We can’t let anyone go to the town at this point!”

Xie Heng slightly hooked his lips. “Doctor Jiang, why are you so afraid of them going to the town? Is it because you are worried that the truth of your fooling the officials will be made public? If you are not guilty, why don’t you let them find out for themselves? Or do you have the final say in Qiaoyi Town, and even the sheriff has to listen to you?”

“How dare you?” The sheriff sniffed and glared angrily at Doctor Jiang. “Are you trying to tell me what to do?”

Doctor Jiang’s heart trembled. “Sir, I dare not. I just think they are acting unusually. I’m worried that they’re not telling the truth and are trying to run away. By the time they’re out of our sight, you may be to blame for all the victims here.”

“Doctor Jiang, may I ask if the people here have died without reason? They were already sick, and you said they were pregnant with a ghost. Even if we didn’t save them, they would have died. So why do you think we killed them now?” Xie Heng retorted.

Doctor Jiang’s breath caught in his throat, and he couldn’t think of anything to say in rebuttal.

Xie Heng continued, “From the very beginning, we have declared ourselves to be from Yuanjiang County, Guangqing Province, and my wife is Zhao Chuchu, who happened to assist the imperial court in containing the plague. When the plague broke out in Yuanjiang County, where were you?”

“You, you…” Doctor Jiang’s face turned red.

The sheriff, however, spluttered, “Wait, who did you say you were?”

Xie Heng cupped his hand and said, “I am Xie Heng, a scholar in Yuanjiang County, Guangqing Province, and the one treating the patient inside is my wife.”

“Is that Mrs. Xie, the one who controlled the plague in Yuanjiang County?”

“It was the imperial court’s work to control the plague. My wife just happened to offer a prescription,” Xie Heng said modestly.

“Someone, arrest this bastard first!” the sheriff ordered coldly. “This bastard has caused me to almost offend our savior. Someone beat the crap out of him!”

After a pause, the sheriff looked at Xie Heng gently. “Mr. Xie, is Mrs. Xie in there saving people now?”

“Yes, Your Excellency.”

“That’s good. That’s good. It’s all a misunderstanding. Mr. Xie, don’t take it seriously. I was worried about the safety of the people of Qiaoyi Town, so I rushed over here in a hurry and questioned you without any reason. Anyway, Qiaoyi Town is probably saved now that you are here.”

“My wife said that she would do her best, but I would like to ask you to go back to the government and clear things up for the people here. They are not pregnant with ghosts but just contracted the disease because they drank the contaminated water.”

“Can they really be cured?”

“Yes.”

“Good to know.”

The sheriff sighed in relief and asked his men to hurry to see if they needed help with anything.

“Can I go in and take a look?” the sheriff asked.

“I’m sorry.” Xie Heng stopped him and didn’t hide the truth from him. “Some people are so sick that they must be opened up in the stomach to eradicate the root cause.”

“What? You mean to open up the abdomen?”

“Yes.”

“Can the person still be alive?”

The sheriff felt creeped out just thinking about it, but the young boy in front of him spoke indifferently as if it was nothing serious.

“Sir, you have every reason to doubt me. Why don’t you send someone to the town to see if those people whose stomachs were cut open are still alive?”

“Hahaha, this is unnecessary since Mrs. Xie is called Doctor Miracle. I believe Mrs. Xie.”

The sheriff laughed dryly because he actually dared not do so.

It was too shocking to have one’s belly cut open.

He was worried that he would be killed by Xie Heng as soon as he turned around.

In fact, the sheriff had started to be scared of Xie Heng.

He was scared of him, even if he looked like a good man with a good look.

Xie Heng nodded slightly and asked him to sit down outside the door.

He wanted to refuse but did not dare to and regretted going to Heyang Village.

...

In addition to his fear of Xie Heng and his wife, he was also scared of Heyang Village because it was the village with the most victims.

Doctor Jiang over there was screaming from being beaten up.

Xie Heng frowned slightly and turned to ask the sheriff. “He is making too much noise. I’m afraid it will affect my wife. Can you please bring him to another place?”

“Yes, yes, yes, my bad.” The sheriff immediately asked his men to take Doctor Jiang away.

Doctor Jiang never expected that he would end up like this when he had initially planned to set Zhao Chuchu up.
