"Master! What's wrong with you?"
"Don't scare us!"
"Master! Master!"
The disciples and grandchildren who were guarding the door were panicked, but as doctors, they knew the horror of the plague. Especially Qin Lao strictly ordered no one to get close.
They were all talking about caring, but they didn't affect the old man's crying at all.
Ever since Mr. Qin came back from his medical visit, he had wrapped himself up tightly and refused to be approached by anyone, imprisoning himself in the hospital.
The entire medical center was already in panic.
Over the years, the medical center has experienced ups and downs, what has it not experienced?
No one has ever seen Mr. Qin lose his composure like this.
The ninety-year-old man cried and burst into tears.
Everyone who sees it is heartbroken.
"Father!" Finally, it was Mr. Qin's son, Qin Nianmin, the current director of the medical clinic, who suddenly knelt on the ground and asked crying: "My son is unfilial. I wonder why you are crying, father?"
"I cry, how cruel God is to bring such a disaster."
"Weep over the unjust people entrusted to Yue City. The city lord doesn't care about the people. The disaster is about to be destroyed in an instant!"
The old man cried and howled, his voice mournful.
In his life, he rarely made mistakes in treating diseases and treating people. Although the city lord of Yue City did not express his position clearly, he had already seen his shirk. Conclude that your own anti-epidemic strategies will never be adopted.
Without the decisive measures led by the City Lord's Mansion, he couldn't imagine what the entire city would eventually look like.
"Father, father!" Qin Nianmin was over fifty years old, and his hair was slightly frosty. But looking at his helpless old father, he felt as lost as a child.
He walked a few steps on his knees and said with tears, "What can we do?"
"Go!" Mr. Qin stopped crying, stood up, and hissed: "If you still remember the virtues of doctors, if you still have humanity left, then all go! Go and find out what happened to the plague in Yuecheng. Spread the word and tell people not to go out."
"Go to neighboring cities and counties to alert local officials."
"Go to the capital and tell our King, His Majesty, what his people are going through!"
The ninety-year-old man finally stood in the courtyard with his halberd pointing to the sky, like a general defending his family and country, roaring and issuing military orders——
"go!"
It was just a cry, blood spurted from the mouth, and he fell to the ground immediately.
Before the plague breaks out, people have already gone.
"Father!!!" Qin Nianmin knelt on the ground and wanted to run into the courtyard, but stopped.
There is a piece of rice paper taped in front of the door with words on it.
Mr. Qin wrote it in his own hand after he came back:
There is no need to bury me after my death, and no one can come near my body.
Burn my bones and purify them in the flames. Dig a hole and cover my remains.
Those who violate it are unfilial and those who go against it are unfaithful!
…
After communicating with the old doctor, the city lord of Yue City walked out of the hospital in a gloomy mood.
No one wants to see such disasters happen under their own rule.
That man named Li brought the plague from nowhere and deserved to be executed with ten thousand knives!
But the most pressing priority is how to deal with the situation in front of us.
The commander of the guards behind him asked in a low voice: "Sir, do you want me to set off now?"
"Where to go?"
The guard commander hesitated: "Aren't we going to... seal off the whole area?"
The city lord of Yue City turned to look at him, his eyes were dull but majestic: "He is old and confused. Are you confused too?"
"He said it was the plague, is it the plague? Without any more evidence, just based on one side of the story, just blockade the city?"
"Do you know how much loss will be caused by blocking the entire region for a month? How much food will be consumed? Not to mention mobilizing all the extraordinary forces in Yuecheng, will it be able to sustain the lives of the people in the entire region for a month. Just the Dao Yuan required to drive these extraordinary forces Shi, do you know what the number is? Who can come up with it?"
"Let alone report it to the court. Once the court gets involved in Yuecheng affairs, what will happen to me?"
"It should be noted that names and tools cannot be faked by others! If you hand over your power, you can't get it back!"
"Yuecheng belongs to me first, and then to Yang Country!"
The guard leader lowered his head: "...Yes."
The city lord of Yue City sighed in his heart for this stupid guard, wondering when to replace him.
He said: "In any case, regardless of whether Mr. Qin is an alarmist or not, we must pay attention to the seriousness of the situation. I will immediately write a letter and invite the medical cultivators from Dongwang Valley to come here for personal inspection. From today on, the whole city will The standard for territorial alert is 'loose outside and tight inside'! Especially the street where the sick person is located will be sealed off to isolate the inside and outside. If anyone leaves without permission, he will be killed without mercy!"
The commander of the guards was about to leave in response to the order when he heard the Lord of the City continue to order: "Deploy a team of people to seal this place. In order to prevent rumors from spreading and causing panic among the people, the medical center will be closed for half a month from now on, and no one is allowed in or out! "
The guard commander was secretly shocked and asked anxiously: "What if they don't want to?"
The city lord of Yue City glanced at him lightly: "Compared with the precedent of the street where the sick person is located. Mr. Qin is also very likely to be infected with the epidemic, isn't he?"
The guard commander felt his throat was dry: "...Yes!"
…
Walking in Qingyang Town, there were obviously more people than before.
Just over a month later, the incident of Hu You's family being burned down seemed to have been forgotten by people.
Hu Laogen is not a person with much political talent, but he keeps to himself and is diligent, which is enough.
Moreover, his surname is Hu, he is Hu You's family, and he is the elder of Qingyang Town. People here do not reject him.
Qingyang Town is nominally one of the eight towns in Jiacheng. In fact, the Chongxuan family has jurisdiction over this place for thirty years.
Chong Xuansheng transferred this right to Jiang Wang.
It can be said that this town will belong to Jiang Wang for the next thirty years. As long as he wants.
Therefore, he is very willing to walk more in Qingyang Town, and is even willing to reduce some practice time, visit the villages under the town, and occasionally take action to drive away the ferocious beasts that cross the border.
Of course Jiang Wang would not kill these ferocious beasts and challenge the already fragile nerves of the Yang Kingdom. So his movements are not big, more like a kind of entertainment.
It is difficult for people who have never been homeless to understand this sense of wandering without belonging.
This place often reminds him of Fengxi Town, a town that he rarely went back to before and didn't cherish enough, but later he often thought of it.
Xiaoxiao was always by Jiang Wang's side. She grew up very fast, learned martial arts from Zhubiqiong, and also handled the affairs of the mine in an orderly manner.
It is different from Zhu Biqiong who simply comes out to see the world and take a look at the scenery to relax.
She enjoys the feeling of being "valuable", but she enjoys the feeling of following Jiang Wang even more.
This was the person who personally pulled her out of hell. Only by following Jiang Wang could her confused and uncertain heart feel safe.
The three round puppies sucked hard, their little heads crowded together and bumping against each other. The mother lying on the ground is a big white dog with beautiful coat. But at this moment, he was lying stiffly, and his eyes looked a little hopeless.
Xiaoxiao found that his master had stopped in front of this scene for a long time.
"He seems to like this picture very much." Xiaoxiao thought.
She was not wrong.
To Jiang Wang, this scene was beautiful.
This is the continuation of life, and here is the light of hope.
