Chapter 62 Endless Regret

62 Endless Regret
“It’s not your duty to save them! Besides, you’ve already saved their lives once!”
Cui Shize met Cui Lingyi’s sad and angry gaze and looked back at the villagers. He was conflicted.
After a long time, he finally said, “Xiaoxiao, you can decide since it’s your medicine.”
Xiaoxiao was right. What right did he have to criticize Bai Wutong for giving Cui Lingyi a life-saving medicine? If he did that, the Cui family would be furious.
When Cui Lingyi saw his disgusted expression for being so useless himself, she was extremely sad. If not for the fact that this medicine was really too precious, she would not have left the others to die.
Cui Lingyi could not bear it anymore. “I’ll get Jingbai and the others to find the herbs as soon as possible after they take the medicine.”
Cui Shize nodded and said helplessly, “That’s the only way.”
On the other side, the villagers became restless. Seeing that Cui Muzhi might be carrying medicine, they immediately knelt down and begged, “Young Master, save us. We don’t want to die. Please.” If they could survive, who would want to die?
This medicine was given to his cousin by Bai Wutong. How could Cui Muzhi make the decision? He took a step back. The emotional villagers had even wanted to come and grab him.
Everyone knew that the plague was contagious, but they knew that they were already seriously ill, but they all came to force Cui Muzhi into a corner.
Just now, they had said that they wanted their descendants to repay their kindness. Yet now, they were doing such a disgusting thing.
Cui Shize’s disciples could not help but frown and say angrily.
“One must have a conscience!”
Lan Jingbai was even more straightforward. He pulled out his sword with a whoosh. “Get lost!”
At this moment, Cui Shize, who had heard the commotion, appeared. He looked at the emotional villagers and said.
“Everyone, don’t panic. It’s going to be fine. Those with mild and asymptomatic symptoms, step forward. Serious patients, wait where you are. Don’t walk around. The plague is transmitted through mouth and nose. If you walk around, those among us who aren’t infected will catch it. For everyone’s safety, please cooperate and act quickly.”
They were not villagers of the Zhao farmyard who were obedient to Bai Wutong. When Cui Shize’s words reached the ears of the villagers of the Falling Rain Village, it sounded like Cui Shize despised them and wanted them to wait for death alone.
Especially the seriously ill villagers, they were afraid that they would be abandoned by everyone. Their sinister eyes locked onto Cui Muzhi as they questioned Cui Shize, “Doesn’t he have medicine? Why don’t you give us medicine? Do you want to see us die?!”
“Give us the medicine! Give us the medicine!”
The horror of the plague had taken over their minds. They did not seem human at all.
Cui Shize was stunned for a moment before comforting, “Everyone will have medicine. When the flood subsides, we can enter the city to get medicine for everyone.”
As soon as he said this, the villagers became even more agitated. “After you’ve entered the city, how will you still be willing to come back!” Then, they pointed at Cui Shize and criticized him fiercely. “What bullsh*t Prime Minister Cui who is willing to give up his life for the sake of the people and the stability of the world! Now, you’re not even willing to give us some medicine. You were just pretending to save us previously to make people think that you’re noble and upright! You’re simply a hypocrite! A liar! What do you mean by putting the people first? You’re just fooling ghosts. You don’t take us commoners seriously at all!”
Cui Shize was devoted to them and even had the thought of sacrificing the Cui family. In the end, because he did not give them medicine immediately, he became a hypocrite and a liar in the eyes of the commoners.
How ridiculous. How pathetic. And how much he deserved it.
Cui Shize’s hurt expression stung Cui Lingyi. No matter how dissatisfied she was with Cui Shize, it was not the turn of a group of poisonous snakes to backstab and criticize him.
Cui Lingyi’s face darkened as she retorted bluntly, “This is my medicine. I can give it to whoever I want! Even if I throw it into the water, I don’t want to give it to a group of ungrateful people!” To think that her father had let them cross the flood first. For their sake, he did not hesitate to kill their horses and even lowered himself to borrow food! In the end, they were all a useless bunch!
Cui Lingyi’s words completely tore apart the shame in the villagers’ hearts. They were furious and determined that Cui Shize had no intention of giving them medicine in the first place. He just wanted to watch them die.
The agitated villagers ignored Village Chief Li’s obstruction and were about to attack Cui Lingyi.
When Cui Shize saw this, his heart turned cold.
This was how the people he had sacrificed his life to save treated his daughter.
They actually dared to attack his cousin. Cui Muzhi threw the medicine away and pulled out his sword with a whoosh, pointing it at the villagers who dared to be impudent.
How could a little kid with a sword scare them? The villagers rushed forward. The Cui family servants glanced at Cui Shize. Before the order could be given, Lan Jingbai had already raised his sword and stood in front of Cui Muzhi and Cui Lingyi, killing a villager.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the scene stopped for a moment.
When Village Chief Li saw who had been killed by Lan Jingbai, he collapsed to the ground and crawled towards the corpse again. He hugged him and shouted, “Son—!!!”
Li Changzhi only had one son, but he had been killed by Lan Jingbai.
What was the point of him living!
Li Changzhi suddenly raised his scarlet eyes and said ruthlessly, “You dog officials are all the same! If you want to kill someone, you’ll just kill them! You claim to love the people as your own children. Bah!” At this moment, he looked at Cui Shize with hatred.
“You!” Cui Muzhi was so angry he wanted to stab him. “You’re all ungrateful bastards!”
The Cui family servants were also on standby. If Li Changzhi dared to make a move, they would kill him.
Cui Shize waved his hand dejectedly. “Tell them to get lost!” There were still many innocent women and children in the village. This was the most he could tolerate.
Cui Shize wanted to let them off. Village Chief Li’s eyes darkened. He pretended to take a step back and rushed forward alone. The Cui family servants hurriedly protected Cui Lingyi and the others. However, Village Chief Li’s goal was the medicine that Cui Muzhi had thrown away.
He picked up the medicine and threw it to the villagers of the Falling Rain Village with a whoosh. He shouted crazily, “Without the medicine, the dog officials can only wait for death like us. Hahahaha—”
When he threw the medicine out, the villagers fought crazily for it. The medicine bag that was originally a dose for one person was instantly torn apart. Even if it was useful medicine, it became useless if they picked it up like this.
This was the life-saving medicine that the little phoenix had given them!
Cui Lingyi couldn’t take it anymore and ordered, “Kill him!”
Before Lan Jingbai could attack, Cui Lingyi spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing Cui Lingyi spit out blood, Village Chief Li said fearlessly, “It’s all retribution! Retribution!” Today, everyone here would die with his son! Village Chief Li laughed towards the sky. “Hahahaha—” He suddenly rushed towards the endless flood and disappeared with a splash.
“Old man!” Village Chief Li’s wife reacted and shouted miserably. She also jumped into the flood without hesitation.
Her son was gone. Her husband was gone. What was the point of her living?
How could the medicine for 100 people be enough for more than 100 people in the Falling Rain Village? They fought each other, wishing they could kill each other. Their hearts were already dead before the plague killed them.
The temperature on Cui Lingyi’s forehead was hot. It was obvious that her condition had worsened, but they had no packet of medicine left!
Endless regret drowned Cui Shize like a tide. He put down his daughter and gritted his teeth. “Muzhi, please go plead Madam Bai again!” With that, he asked Lan Jingbai to take a pen and paper and quickly filled it with words before handing it to Cui Muzhi.
