Ye Xing did not go ashore from the pier of many ships, but found a remote place to go ashore, deflated the rubber boat, put it into the space ring, and took out a huge package full of dry food.
Ye Xing quickly arrived outside the north gate, but was stopped by a soldier. Ye Xing gave him ten taels of silver for the entry fee, which was usually only 50 yuan, and opened the package to let the soldiers know that he had money and food and could live in the city.
The soldier still let him stop for a while, and after checking, Ye Xing did not have a cough or fever before allowing him to enter the city.
After Ye Xing entered, he asked passers-by and went straight to the city lord's mansion.
When we arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, there was a sea of people here. Everyone was waiting to see how the princess would deal with the plague. They all stretched their necks and looked at the closed door of the City Lord's Mansion.
There is complete martial law here, and the heavily armed city guards keep people far away from the periphery.
Ye Xing came to a soldier and whispered, "Can you send a message to Lord Zhu, the city guard?"
The soldier said impatiently, "The city lord is discussing the epidemic with others and has no time to deal with idle personnel!"
Ye Xing also knew that it was impossible to let the soldiers pass the news for him, so he secretly handed a piece of silver to the soldiers and said in a low voice, "Who is your captain? I have something important to tell him."
The soldier stared at Ye Xing, quickly took the silver, squeezed it hard, stuffed the silver into his arms, pointed at the man in disguise who was standing in front of the city lord's mansion, looking around, and said pleasantly, "That one." He’s our horse captain!”
Ye Xing handed another ingot of silver to the soldier's hand, "Please ask the horse captain to come over."
The soldier looked around and saw that no one was coming, so he nodded, turned around and ran towards the door of the mansion.
The soldier said a few words to the horse captain. The horse captain turned to stare at Ye Xing, who nodded and smiled.
Captain Ma walked over and said impatiently, "Who are you? What do you want? What do you do?"
Ye Xing knew that the so-called kid was difficult to deal with, so of course he didn't get angry and said, "I am a doctor, and I came to see the county magistrate specifically for this epidemic."
After saying that, he took out a round, transparent and spiritual elixir and handed it to Captain Ma, and said in a low voice, "This is specially used for the epidemic. Taking it will keep you safe."
Captain Ma took the elixir, looked at it carefully, and smelled it again. The aroma filled his heart and spleen. He didn't say whether it could cure the disease or not, but he knew that this was definitely a good elixir, so he quickly put it away.
But Ye Xing said again, "If you eat it now, you don't have to be afraid of the plague!"
After hearing this, Captain Ma thought for a moment, who wouldn't want to save his life first? He took it out immediately, hesitated for a moment, and then put it in his mouth.
A cold feeling went down the throat, and then turned into a spiritual energy that stirred throughout the body. Captain Ma found himself feeling fresh all over his body. Regardless of whether he could resist the plague or not, he knew that this elixir was definitely a good thing.
Captain Ma changed his tone to a very sincere tone and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I'll go and inform you, but I can't guarantee whether the county guard can see you."
Ye Xing handed a bottle of elixir to Captain Ma, "If you give it to the county guard, he will believe that I am a doctor and will definitely see me."
What Ye Xing gave Captain Ma just now was a sixth-grade Pulse Cleansing Pill. Now this bottle contains three sixth-grade Qi-Consolidating and Yuan-Building Pills. As long as you are an expert, you will know it is a good thing as soon as you smell it.
The horse captain quickly walked into the county magistrate's house, waited for a while, and then ran out and said respectfully, "Sir, Magistrate Zhu has invited you!"
Ye Xing followed the horse captain into the county governor's mansion. An elegant middle-aged man walked by and said to Ye Xing, "Sir, I am Zongzheng of the county governor's mansion. The county governor is discussing the plague with the officials. You Come with me."
Ye Xing came to the office hall of the county government. The first person sitting there was a middle-aged man with a square face and a dignified appearance. He was full of majesty and had very discerning eyes. He looked like a master at first glance, and he was a master among masters. Ye Xing took a look and saw that he was a master. It is clear that his cultivation is already at the sixth level of Xiantian, and he is the best expert Ye Xing has ever seen.
There were many people sitting in the two rows below. They should all be officials and famous figures from Yunhu County.
Everyone looked at Ye Xing, a little surprised who this person was.
Ye Xing bowed to Commander Zhu first, without saying anything. He calmly took out a stack of paper and handed it to Zong Zheng. Zong Zheng took it and hurriedly ran over and handed it to Commander Zhu.
Governor Zhu did not ask any questions, but looked at it carefully first. He seemed to be attracted immediately, and his eyes showed a strange light.
Ye Xing wrote a lot of content on several pieces of paper. One piece of paper talked about the cause of the disease and the route of transmission. The second piece of paper listed the methods to cut off the epidemic. The last piece of paper wrote how to make the medicine.
Ye Xing knew from his memory that the plague was actually spread by a bacterium and that both humans and animals could be infected. The solutions were isolation, sanitation, disinfection, removal of corpses, and treatment.
The plan formulated by Ye Xing is extremely detailed and feasible. It can be briefly summarized as follows:
1. Dig a line of defense five miles outside the city to establish an isolation area. People and animals showing signs of illness are not allowed to enter the city. Attackers will be shot with long arrows.
2. The deceased or animal should be immediately sprinkled with lime, then poured with lamp oil and dry firewood and burned.
3. All the animals in the city are killed and eaten in batches first. They do not eat staple food first. They must be cooked before eating.
4. You must not eat infected animals and do not drink raw water. Everyone must drink boiled water.
5. Everyone must wear a very dense mask made of three or four layers of cloth, and no one is allowed to go out.
6. Clean the home thoroughly, dig deep pits to bury personal excreta, kill all rats and burn them.
7. An inspection team was dispatched from the city, and those who vomited blood and had fever were immediately taken to an isolation area outside the city to await treatment.
In order to effectively implement the plan, Ye Xing also recommends:
1. The sects and large merchants in the city sent more than half of their people to form an inspection team, each in charge of one block.
2. Collect several kinds of herbs in the city, prepare anti-disease medicines, and give them to the inspection team composed of the city guards and various sects and gangs first.
3. City guards and inspection teams all wear masks and gloves, and wash their hands with liquor and lime immediately every time they come into contact with a patient.
The county guard read it twice and handed the paper to the official below. After the official read it quickly, he passed it to another person. Their nervous expressions softened and their frowns became more lively.
Half an hour later, everyone had finished reading and nodded. The plan was detailed, powerful, and feasible.
Everyone also understood at the same time that there were half a million people in the city. Now everyone was in the same boat. If they didn't cooperate, they would die.
Governor Zhu didn't waste any time and immediately called the commander of the city guards to divide them into five teams, one for each team to establish an isolation area. One team was reserved in the city as a maneuver. He immediately recruited all the sect gangs in the city to form an inspection team, each guarding one team. District, in order to maintain sanitation and prevent the movement of people.
Governor Zhu also called in representatives from major merchants and demanded that all efforts should be made to stabilize prices and not increase prices. All cotton cloth from cloth merchants was required. All women who knew knitting started working full-time to make masks and headscarves according to Ye Xing's designs.
Governor Zhu gave the order in an orderly manner and asked Zong Zheng to lead a city guard to check everyone's work. If they did not comply with the requirements, they would be immediately executed for disobedience.
Finally, the county guard had people copy Ye Xing's prevention and control plan into dozens of copies, stamped it with the county guard's official seal, and had people quickly spread it to various places, so that it must be implemented and those who disobeyed the order would be killed!
Yunhu County is under the jurisdiction of the Spiritual Beast Sect. The sect's power and the Spiritual Beast Sect's personnel account for 90%. The government orders are unified and implemented quickly.
Ye Xing has a good impression of this Commander Zhu. He is calm, courageous, decisive, and has the air of a general.
When everything was settled, it was already evening, and Governor Zhu invited Ye Xing to have dinner together.
During the dinner, the two discussed more details about epidemic prevention.
Ye Xing told everything he knew, mainly three points: hygiene, isolation, and treatment.
Ye Xing also suggested that toilets should be built in open spaces in the city so that people can use public toilets instead of at home, and that men and women should be separated. This allows the excrement to be treated uniformly, simply by adding lime to the pit.
When Commander Zhu heard this, he asked Zong Zheng to write it down on paper immediately and ordered him to go and handle it immediately.
The two also talked about cultivation. Ye Xing, who was only eighteen years old, was already at the ninth level of innate cultivation, which surprised Governor Zhu. He was already nearly fifty, and he was only at the peak of the sixth innate level.
Ye Xing said that his master is an unparalleled master who has never been born before. He has been trained with pills since he was a child to achieve such a level of cultivation.
Ye Xing introduced the role of three sixth-grade Qi-Consolidating and Yuan-Building Pills, which should be very helpful to Commander Zhu’s practice. Commander Zhu was very grateful, as he had not made any progress for a long time.
For innate masters, even a small amount of progress is extremely difficult. Opportunity and hard work are also indispensable.
Now, the three pills Ye Xing gave him were his luck and opportunity. Commander Zhu smiled brightly and thanked Ye Xing profusely.
Ye Xing smiled and did not refuse the other party's thanks, because this kind of elixir was indeed worth thousands of gold.
