NovelEnglishChapter 525: The Refugees
“Elder Miss, we found her.” Sword Two rushed in, panting as he spoke.
It should be a delightful thing when she was found, but Sword Two still looked confused. He wondered if he should tell Gu Chaoyan the truth.
Qing had just got the coat and put it on for Gu Chaoyan. It was not raining outside, but the wind was blowing wildly.
Gu Chaoyan felt much warmer with a coat on.
She asked confusedly as she noticed Sword Two’s expression. “Did you bring her here?”

“She doesn’t want to come home?” Gu Chaoyan asked, feeling confused. Well, if she did not want to come home, then she could just take a walk outside alone to drive away her sadness. She could come home when she felt like it.
Sword Two sighed. He had no intention of spilling the truth.
His Miss had been exhausted and she was scared of coldness. They, as the servants, felt very concerned for her, but it was a very serious matter, and maybe only she was able to solve the problem due to her excellent medical skills. After all, even Lady Yuanxiang was not sure what to do.
As he thought it through, he recounted the story carefully. “Lady Yuanxiang refuses to come home, because she has run into many refugees who are seriously sick. Lady Yuanxiang has been treating them from yesterday to today.” Sword Two sighed again as he said this.
The Saint Divine Land was located in the north, and the winter in the north was very cold. Therefore, many poor civilians were unable to eat well or be protected from the cold in winter. So when they caught a cold, it basically meant that they would die. This was a situation happening every year, but this year, things seemed much more serious.
Those refugees were totally left alone without anyone caring about them.
Even he could not stand the scene. No wonder Lady Yuanxiang was never home. She had been helping those refugees all along.
“What?” Gu Chaoyan just could not believe it. “Show me the way, I need to check it out.”
Sword Two hesitated, but then he nodded.
He took Gu Chaoyan to the place where the refugees were allocated.
Those refugees were not allowed to come into the capital, since they were supposed to stay outside the city. Therefore, all they could do was to stay inside some deserted temples outside the capital as well as some old shelters.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Gu Chaoyan arrived, she saw Li Yuanxiang standing among those people. Due to the limited conditions, she could only make the medicine with a large iron pot.
The medicine was made inside the room, and was fed to the sick after it was done.
These people all had a cold that could have spread very easily. At the beginning only a few people got it, but soon, everyone else caught it as well.
Seeing the scene, Gu Chaoyan could not help sighing. No wonder Sword Two had a complicated expression on his face just now.
When Li Yuanxiang saw Gu Chaoyan, she was startled as well. “Chaoyan!”
Apart from Li Yuanxiang, everyone else looked at Gu Chaoyan with a laid-back expression, showing no emotions at all. They were all feeling numb.
They did not think that anyone would be able to change the situation. So they did not care who else was here.
Gu Chaoyan shook her head. “It won’t work. Everyone will eventually have it and fail to get better.”
Li Yuanxiang looked worried too.
“I have been making medicine for them since yesterday, but there are too many of them and even the medicine doesn’t work.”
