Chapter 247: 248

There was a knock on the cabin door, followed by a voice, "Miss Darlene, let the witch doctor on board take a look at Miss Catherine's condition."

"No need, I saw it yesterday, but it got worse. I have to wait until I go to Xiyang City to see a witch doctor." Darlene refused.

"Miss Darlene, how could there be a powerful witch doctor in a remote town like Xiyang City." There was a little anger in an old voice.

Darlene knew who the owner of the voice was, it was an old witch on board the ship, er, it was an old witch doctor, who seemed to be sent by the fourth prince, she made some black concoction for Catherine to drink yesterday, and today she is sick aggregated.

Therefore, Darlene didn't dare to let the other party watch it anymore, she would rather go to Xiyang City to try it, because she really couldn't trust that old witch.

The other party waited for a while, but did not wait for Darlene's response, and continued to persuade, "Miss Darlene, we can't delay any longer. If something happens to Miss Catherine, we will all bear the blame."

"..." Darlene pursed her lips and looked at Catherine's painful face. She knew what the other party said was right. If something happened to Catherine, the Duke's daughter, everyone would be held accountable by the Grand Duke.

And the owner of her fleet, her father, and the entire caravan family will definitely be destroyed by the Grand Duke's anger.

Catherine is the jewel in the palm of the Grand Duke, and also the pride of the Grand Duke. She is very favored. The Grand Duke once said that if he wants to marry his daughter Catherine, he must pass his test, otherwise nothing will happen.

How many people like Catherine, a talented woman in music? If 10% of the men in the capital are divided, then at least 30% of the men like Catherine, just a little bit worse than Princess Lucy.

"Bang bang bang..."

There was no response, and this time the door was knocked louder, which made Darlene's face darken, she stood up and opened the door, her blue eyes angrily looked at the few people standing outside.

"Do you think Catherine is not sick enough? Are you making noise here?"

Darlene pointed at an old woman and scolded angrily, "What are you trying to do with a knife and a wooden basin? Bloodletting?"

"Yes! Bloodletting can release some of the demons that have invaded the body, which can reduce Miss Catherine's pain."

The old woman witch doctor raised her head and said proudly, this is her final treatment method, she has saved many people with this method, two out of ten people will be saved, otherwise all ten people will die.

"Don't even think about it."

Darlene slammed the door shut again, and the voice came out, "If you keep arguing, you will leave my boat."

This made the people outside look at each other, stood for a while, and then left with a sullen face. They prayed that Catherine would not have an accident, otherwise some minor nobles with no status would definitely be dragged to be buried by the Grand Duke.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

Darlene leaned back against the door, and was relieved when she heard the footsteps going away. In her opinion, this kind of bloodletting therapy was nonsense.

She has read some records of illness cases, and then compared the cases of civilians who were ill, and found that 90% of the people who had been healed by bloodletting therapy died, and 70% of the people in the 90% did not need to die, but they were treated again and again. Bleeding to death.

"Catherine, don't worry, I will never let anyone bleed you." Darlene stared blankly at Catherine. This friend went out with her but got sick, which made her feel very guilty.

"Come on, come on, Xiyang City is coming." Darlene went to the window and looked out through the gap.

She urgently needs a backbone, such as her father Solo, Darlene is a bit at a loss what to do now, she dare not think about the bad, for example, what if there is no good witch doctor in Xiyang City? What if the witch doctors in Xiyang City also used bloodletting therapy?

The more she thought about it, the more disturbed and heavy she felt. Smart people think a lot, like Darlene. Some things didn't happen, and she had already made up a lot of them.

"Huh?" Darlene was shocked, looking outside not far away, there were nearly 300 people running slowly carrying a big log, the other party seemed to be shouting slogans like 'one two one', a little far away Far away, she couldn't hear clearly.

"What are they doing? More than 300 people are carrying logs in winter? Are they going to build a house?" Darlene guessed.

"..."

On the other side of the bank, Niu Da rode a horse, looked at the dozen or so large boats on the Youshui River, frowned and said, "Why do so many boats come to Xiyang City in this winter?"

"Second, take the soldiers back and make them ready. If there is any change, you will immediately lead people to guard Xiyang City. The young master's safety is the first priority."

Niu Da said to Niu Er on the side, "I'll take some people to see it first."

Today is to take the recruits to practice physical strength in the field, and practice cold resistance training by the way.

"Okay!" Niu Er took over the command.

"Drive!" Niu Da rushed to the entrance of the alley with dozens of veterans, he hoped that the other party was not a bad person.

Regardless of whether the other party is a friend or an enemy, some early warning arrangements are necessary, even if the other party is an acquaintance.

Chapter 0291 Can the mortal man be rescued?

"The alley entrance of Xiyang City is here!!"

"Sails in! Sails in!!!!"

With a loud cry, the sail was pulled up, the speed suddenly slowed down, and it leaned towards the pier by inertia.

Darlene showed joy in her eyes, she held onto the table so as not to be shaken, she moved to the bedside, looked at Catherine's pale face, and said softly, "Catherine, we have arrived in Xiyang City, your illness will soon It will be fine."

She immediately went out and arranged for the maids to prepare a stretcher, spread a thick animal hair blanket on the stretcher, and then carefully moved Catherine onto the stretcher, covered it with two layers of quilts, and then started to disembark.

"Hoo hoo..."

Darlene tightened her fur coat and looked at the vast white land. It was much colder here than in the capital. It was no wonder that Catherine fell ill.

She looked back at the stretcher, and glanced at those who followed, especially the viscount named Jesse, whose face was full of anxiety. After all, the fourth prince sent him to follow Catherine, with the intention of monitoring and protecting.

"Heh~" A sneer formed at the corner of Darlene's mouth. These people must be regretting coming. Now that Catherine has a problem, everyone will suffer. Those noble children who are courteous to her haven't come these two days. I'm afraid Being implicated by her, after all, Darlene is the main person in charge.

"Go, be careful." Darlene said to the six maids carrying the stretcher.

These maids were all brought by Catherine, and they would not let strangers approach them. They were surrounded by some knights who were sent by the Grand Duke to protect his daughter.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

After getting off the boat, the group saw a dozen or so fully armed knights approaching with longbows in their hands, which made Darlene and the others nervous.

"Who are you? Where are you from?" A soldier captain guarding the dock shouted.

"We are from the capital, and one of my companions is sick. May I know where the witch doctor is?" Darlene shouted anxiously.

"The capital? A businessman?" The soldier captain did not relax his vigilance.

"Yes, it's a businessman." Darlene replied quickly.

"Damn it, do you want to die? The sick person is the daughter of the Grand Duke." Jessie roared, putting his arm on the hilt of his waist.

"Shua!"

This action immediately made everyone nervous. The soldiers immediately pointed their bows and arrows at Jesse. As long as there was any movement, they would shoot an arrow. They didn't care about the grand duke's daughter or anything like that. Here Just follow their rules.

They only caught a few businessmen pretending to be nobles a while ago, and now they are already staying in the small black room of the Security Department.

"Don't, don't shoot arrows." Darlene was in a hurry, she quickly stood in front of Catherine, and shouted, "My father is Solo, he is in Xiyang City now, and my good friend Catherine is sick, she She really is the Duke's daughter."

These words made the soldier captain frowned, stepped forward to look at the stretcher, glanced around the crowd, and said coldly, "You leave the knight's spears, bows and arrows, and only bring long swords."
