Gu Nuo’er was protected in Kongjue’s arms and was safe.

However, someone’s sharp nails scratched the back of Kongjue’s hand.

It was even to the extent that his head had been smashed by something and a small cut appeared on his cheek, causing him to bleed.

Even so, he still didn’t let go of Gu Nuo’er.

At first, the child was stunned by this group of angry villagers.

She saw that Kongjue was so protective of her.

Even to the extent of getting hurt.

A strong sense of self-blame and anger rose in her heart.

“If you guys continue like this, all of you can forget about getting cured. All of you will die here!”

Gu Nuo’er raised her sharp childish voice, scaring everyone who was still noisy and crazy.

Her small hands protected Kongjue’s arm tightly.

She looked at the people around them who were panting like malicious ghosts.

The child’s expression was furious, and her big bright eyes were filled with deterrence.

“Since you know that I’m the princess, don’t be presumptuous! I came to treat your illness, not to be bullied by you guys!”

She pointed at the shocking scratch on the back of Kongjue’s hand.

“You guys actually don’t differentiate between good and bad. The monk older brother came here alone to help you guys despite the danger, but you guys even injured him!”

A hint of embarrassment flashed across everyone’s faces.

Gu Nuo’er’s black eyes swept across everyone present.

“You guys have to believe me. I’m so young and I’m already here. Why would I lie to you?

“The soldiers outside came to save you! However, there are too many villages affected by the epidemic!

“Moreover, Ning’an Village is in the center. It’ll take some time for them to come here. What we have to do is wait patiently!”

As her soft voice comforted them, everyone gradually calmed down.

“Those soldiers treat this mission as if they had signed a life and death contract before going to the battlefield. If they’re not careful, they’ll get infected. No one wants to die, but we all want to save you. Therefore, don’t give up!”

The villager who had taken the lead just now suddenly knelt on the ground and wailed.

“Your Highness, we really don’t have a choice. Our families are all dying. We’re too afraid.’

Gu Nuo’er heaved a small sigh.

She waved her small hand. “The most important thing for this illness is to separate from people who have contracted the plague first!

“Those who are strong in the village, help move those who are infected with the plague to separate houses to live separately!”

Everyone immediately seemed to have a backbone and scattered off in all directions to carry out the instruction.

One said that someone from the Zhang family was sick, while the other said that the Li family had two patients who were seriously ill.

They decided to leave the big courtyard in the village where they had been listening to the opera shows to contain the villagers who had contracted the plague.

Taking advantage of this time, Gu Nuo’er quickly held Kongjue’s hand.

“Monk older brother, quick, let’s wash your wound with water.”

It was unknown how long the people from Ning’an Village had been in such a dirty environment.

It was unknown how unclean their scratches and blows would be.

With Gu Nuo’er around, Kongjue wouldn’t get infected by the plague.

However, the injuries on his hand and face were bad enough.

Kongjue quickly said, “I’m fine.”

“That won’t do!” The child was very insistent.

She dragged Kongjue to a small stream that passed through the village.

She washed the wound on the back of his hand with flowing water.

Then, she wiped the wound on Kongjue’s cheek with her wet handkerchief.

Kongjue remained squatting and let the child get busy.

After a long while, he sighed and said, “Young Benefactor, don’t worry. I am fine.

Gu Nuo’er didn’t answer.

She turned around and saw her red eyes from the reflection of the flowing stream.

The tears she held back didn’t fall.

This was not the time to cry..
