Sihai City, as one of the countless medium-sized cities in the southwest of the Qin Dynasty, naturally cannot be compared with Jiaozhi City, a choke point, but Sihai City is often famous for its security because it is deep in many cities.

In this troubled world, the people naturally hoped that their families could have a peaceful home where they could live in peace, and driven by this kind of thinking, the population in the surrounding cities moved to Sihai City one after another, so that the population who moved from other places accounted for almost seven or eight of the city's population.

At the same time, the three city lords of Sihai City for more than ten years are not harsh and abuse the people, although they are not good officials with merits, but they have protected the people of this city, before the Daming Cave has not invaded, the people of Sihai City live a stable and contented life, but it can be regarded as a blessed land, although the prosperity and wealth are not comparable to the neighboring city of Jiaozhi City, but the people living in it are exceptionally comfortable.

Then this kind of good life did not last long, after the poisonous dragon son of Daming Cave assassinated the lord of the Four Seas, he controlled the whole city in a grand manner, and ruthlessly looted the people once, and robbed them of the food and money they had accumulated for a long time.

Immediately afterwards, another uninvited guest came to this small city, the people of the Southern Barbarians were more vicious than the Daming Caves, and they heard that the barbarians would kill two Qin Dynasty generals with eight rank on the way here, and the people were even more panicked. Their fears were accurate, and after that, an outbreak of the city of the seas, brought by refugees from the northern mountains and forests, spread rapidly throughout the city, and the barbarians turned a deaf ear to them, causing the plague to run wild.

The soldiers did not care about the people, and the people were so anxious that they closed their homes, fearing that the disaster would affect their families, and at the same time, they were afraid that a sick person would come and knock on their doors, so they simply nailed their doors. The streets and alleys are empty alleys, and when you look up, they are extremely lonely and solemn.

There was no one at the gate of the city, and now Sihai City has become an empty city, after being abandoned by the three forces, it has become such a scene, Lin Han and Jiang Ming were not stopped by anyone, and they came to the city, but the scene in front of them made them extremely sad.

"It seems that the epidemic is so serious that there is no one to be seen here, and those who are not sick can understand by staying at home, where have those who have been sick have gone? ”

Lin Han and Jiang Ming were accompanied by more than a hundred soldiers, all of whom were extremely tightly dressed, each soldier had a thick mask on top of his armor, and even a layer of cotton cloth was wrapped in their hands to isolate the disease. Even if Jiang Ming could live the four seasons in a hemp robe earlier, but now he can't be so bold, Yu Ruyi was requisitioned by Lin Han, he must cherish his life, so he still reluctantly veiled his head, only Lin Han alone does not need to do this.

"Report to the two commanders, we have found some wandering people in the south of the city, pulling a dozen corpses in four-wheeled carriages, and are heading west. The soldier knelt on one knee and reported.

Jiang Ming and Lin Han glanced at each other, and the latter said: "Half of the people are guarding at the city gate to prevent others from breaking in, and there are also those who are sick from breaking out, once you find these people, you must subdue them as soon as possible." Keep in mind what Dr. Zhou said, don't let these people stain their skin, and don't directly touch their saliva and wounds, if there is any violation, it will be dealt with according to military regulations!"

"Yes!"

Half of the soldiers followed the two of them towards the south of the city, and occasionally they could see the residents along the street looking out through the windows and doors, Jiang Ming and Lin Han didn't think about calling the door, because in this case, the residents of Sihai City were panicked, and even the officials of the Qin Dynasty would not believe it, let alone their army from nowhere.

Lin Han and Jiang Ming's plan needs the participation of ordinary people, but now is not the time to leave a bad influence on the people, after they solve the problems of those patients, and then announce it to them in the reputation of Wohua Mountain, they will naturally have a vassal mentality, and then recruiting troops will no longer be a problem.

After the spies penetrated into all directions of Sihai City, they naturally had a complete grasp of the whereabouts of the people wandering in the streets and alleys, Lin Han and Jiang Ming were the first to find out, and their people scattered like frightened birds, but the soldiers of Wohua Mountain had already surrounded them and re-encircled those people on all sides.

There were about thirteen or fourteen of the people, all of whom were tightly wrapped and their faces were surrounded by frightened faces, and on the carriage they were pulling were more than a dozen sick people, their skin had rotted, and some of them were even struggling weakly, and they looked terrible and terrible.

Lin Han shouted, "Who are you?"

When the people heard this, they saw that the soldiers around them all raised their guns and halberds, and one of the thin old men actually knelt on the ground, and the people behind him also knelt down, and more than a dozen people shouted in unison: "Don't kill me, my lord, we just want to bury those who are infected and prevent more people from being infected, and we have no other intentions." ”

Lin Han handed the silver spear to the soldier behind him, took a few steps forward and said, "Who are you? Why are every family closed, why do you dare to do these things?"

The old man said: "I am the head of the Zhao family in the city of the four seas, a few days ago when the barbarians occupied the city, they forcibly seized the family wealth, and burned the house that I worked hard to build seven or eight, the people have always trusted me as a dry old man, although I did not serve as an official, but I couldn't bear to see this epidemic continue like this, so I took the children and grandchildren of the family to bury these sick people who could not be saved earlier. ”

Jiang Ming said: "Speaking of which, you old man has a bit of kindness, but this epidemic is far more terrible than you think, and I am afraid that this treatment will not make the epidemic attenuate." Where are the patients you buried these bodies for, take us to see. ”

"This ......" the old man hesitated, and said: "Your Excellency doesn't know, since the death of our Lord of the Four Seas, the Daming Caves and the barbarians have occupied the city defenses of the Four Seas City, but they have no supervision of the invasion of the epidemic, and the refugees from the northern mountains and forests have poured in, so that for a long time, the people of the Four Seas City have been chatting in the panic of the epidemic. Probably because they were afraid that the infected people would spread the disease to their soldiers, the people and barbarians of the Daming Cave chose to kill the infected people on the spot, and threw the corpses into the abandoned dirt pit in the west of the city, where the corpses of nearly 300 people had been piled up so far. ”

The old man took Lin Han, Jiang Ming and others to the west of the city, and after about half an hour, the big pit that was about 100 feet old appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the corpses piled up in it emitted a sour and rotten stench, so that many soldiers reached out to cover their mouths and noses, but only the old man watched this scene very normally.

Lin Han asked: "Old Mr. Zhao, we have no objection to you throwing the corpses of the infected people here, but these corpses have been piled up for a long time, and it is possible that the epidemic will be carried everywhere, although there are no more people living in this vicinity, but for the sake of insurance, we might as well incinerate all these corpses." ”

Jiang Ming said: "Although we can't treat this epidemic, we can use some means to prevent the spread of the epidemic, our doctors have concocted a lot of spicy medicinal juices and medicines, which can restrain the epidemic to a certain extent, as long as the people can use it in accordance with special methods, it will definitely reduce the spread of the epidemic." ”

The old man's eyes were suspicious, and he bowed down and asked, "Forgive the old man for being rude, who are these two people?"

Lin Han said: "We are neither barbarians, nor people from the Daming Grottoes, let alone Qin soldiers, what kind of people does the old gentleman think we are?" 12

The old man's finger moved, and he said, "The soldiers of the two adults are all wearing black armor, could it be that they are from Wohua Mountain?"

Jiang Ming smiled: "This is the first time to hear our name, and it is not mixed with swearing. ”

The old man actually knelt on the ground again, crying: "It turned out to be a person from Wohua Mountain, our Sihai City has been saved, our Sihai City has been saved! ”

Jiang Ming and Lin Han were suspicious, but when they were doubting, Lin Han made a look, Jiang Ming immediately understood, daring to love this old man was afraid that Wohua Mountain would continue to treat the people of Sihai City like Daming Cave and barbarians, so he simply preconceived, and used this kind of words to trap Wohua Mountain in morality, I am afraid that as long as Wohua Mountain does something out of the ordinary, it will be spurned by all the people, and it must be said that people are old and refined.

Jiang Ming wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble, but Lin Han waved his hand to stop Jiang Ming's movements, and then slowly helped the old man up, and said: "Mr. Zhao, I came here this time in Wohua Mountain, not to plot anything, but I can't see the people of the Four Seas City struggling in this sea of suffering, you can not believe it, but after today, we will use the fastest speed to control the epidemic in the Four Seas City, and strive to restore the vitality of the past." ”

The old man was silent for a moment, then knelt down again: "Thank you, sir!"

After this day, Lin Han and Jiang Ming began to be busy with more than 300 soldiers under them, and many of Doctor Zhou's apprentices were transferred here, because now Sihai City is no different from a deserted city, and they are not worried about which side of the people will come to attack, so they simply set up only a few soldiers at the gate of the city to supervise the entry and exit of the people. As for how to heal the people of Sihai City, this will be a severe test.

Under the auspices of Jiang Ming and Lin Han, a large amount of fire oil was poured on the big pit in the west of the city, and the moment the torch was thrown out, the earthen pit that was close to 100 zhang turned into a sea of fire. After that day, all those who were sick and dying were thrown into this pit, which seemed cruel but helpless.

Wohua Mountain set up more than a dozen locations in the city to distribute all kinds of medicinal herbs, and stipulated that all the people should take this thing prepared by Physician Zhou, and all kinds of bitter herbs were placed in various places in the city to suppress the spread of epidemics. After Lin Han and Jiang Ming successively carried out the propaganda of the severity of the epidemic, those patients who got sick but did not dare to speak out paid their faces, which greatly reduced the possibility of these patients re-infecting others.

When they dutifully carried out the solution to the epidemic, the people of Sihai City gradually believed that these people in Wohua Mountain did not seem to be as vicious as they imagined, and the slogan of "gathering righteousness and calming the difficulty" became no longer dazzling, and the yellow scarves on the shoulders of the soldiers of Wohua Mountain seemed to have become a symbol of their saviors.

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye, although the epidemic in Sihai City has not been eradicated, but with the cooperation and efforts of Jiang Ming and Lin Han, the number of people who have been sick has finally gradually decreased, and they have also begun to find that those who get sick later seem to be able to rely on their own immunity to treat this epidemic, and with the medicine prepared by Doctor Zhou, it seems that all this has become very smooth.

"Report to the two commanders, the number of people who have fallen ill today has been counted, a total of three people in the four corners of the city have been newly ill, after investigation, one of the women and a child were infected by a beggar hiding in the shadows, and now the brothers have controlled it, and sent to the medical point for isolation and disposal. ”

"Report to the two commanders, a total of 5,000 medicinal herbs have been distributed at the thirteen treatment points today, and a total of half of the people of Sihai City can get medicinal herbs before the deadline, and the soldiers of Jiaozhi City are still actively looking for relevant medicinal herbs. ”

"According to the two commanders, no one died in the thirteen medical sites today, and there are three people who are mildly ill and have been cured by doctors, and more than a dozen people are also on the trend of recovery, and I believe that the number will rise again tomorrow. ”

Lin Han and Jiang Ming worked hard for a day, it was undoubtedly very happy to hear such news, more than ten days to see that the number of sick people in Sihai City was getting smaller and smaller, their efforts and measures were effective, although most people still died in pain in the process, but there were always people who survived, so that this epidemic war was a preliminary victory.

Jiang Ming said: "Now your Jishi complex can be solved, right? A few days ago, the people of Sihai City died very fiercely, you don't seem to be able to eat or tea, staring at those medical points and houses all day long, if it weren't for the fact that the situation has improved a lot now, I think you are likely to fall down first." ”

Lin Han smiled and said, "It's unlikely, but I seem to be influenced by the manners of the rangers in my early years, and I always have pity for all kinds of situations between right and wrong, black and white, and I can't be as ruthless and unrighteous as you at all." Of course, this is not a bad thing, and if you want to take the opportunity to mock me, it seems that there is no chance. ”

Jiang Ming nodded thoughtfully, and said: "Is it related to the experience of the early years? It's very interesting for me to say this, I have been a mortal in Huangshi Town for a long time, and I have looked down on the world, and it is not easy to live my life, where can I think of mercy? Should you have suffered like this?"

Lin Han said with a smile: "What should not be done, what you have experienced in your life must be experienced, you may be able to change, but you can't avoid it, this itself has nothing to do with whether it should or shouldn't, I think it may be that you start to hate those extraordinary people because of ordinary, just like the poor hate the rich." ”

Jiang Ming smiled bitterly: "Am I so unbearable? Although it's really the same as what you said, but it's not interesting to say it, don't I want to lose face? Of course, this is not the key, I may look at things too clearly, yes is yes, no is wrong, others are others, dead is dead, it is not enough to cause my mood to change." ”

Lin Han said: "Your disease is a little difficult to treat, and I still don't participate." Also, when you talk about that Hou Feng King, I seem to have a little impression, now his four sons are all extremely capable, and they have the power to envelop the entire Xingyu Prefecture, and occupy a large number of votes in the parliament of the Nine Provinces Alliance, do you know what the proposal he put forward is, it is actually a counterattack on the Qin Dynasty!"

"Hiss~" Jiang Ming was shocked, although he felt that Hou Fengwang was extraordinary, but he didn't expect him to have such courage, and said: "Hou Fengwang is decisive in dealing with things, and he was able to decide my life and death with one word, even if I have already identified myself, it still hasn't made him jealous." His strategist Wei Dao'an, who is a celebrity in the entire Nine Provinces Alliance State, cooperates with Shen Zhengfeng to be half a Muya, and the mysterious fifth prince Shen Ziqi, now that Shen Zhengfeng's sons are successful in learning and art, it is naturally time to show his ambitions, I don't know what kind of turmoil he can set off. ”

Lin Han said: "There's no need to worry about this, I have checked your details, and the Hongliang Niang of Cambrian Pass told me that you actually don't have a few close people in Huangshi Town, and you were scattered with those two playmates who grew up in Yeyang City, and then the mountain bandits in Ganyong Village killed your childhood sweetheart's father, and later the girl surnamed Mu also disappeared." You didn't look for it, so naturally you knew the whereabouts of that girl, so there should be no one in the Nine Provinces Alliance who can make you worry about it. ”

Jiang Ming coughed several times and said, "This seventh act really makes people hate itchy, and they actually sold you my news." But with all due respect, I also have the identity of half a black-clothed tooth catcher, how can I really ignore it? But now that the Nine Mansions Alliance has the upper hand, I don't have anything to say. ”

Lin Han said: "What you said is ruthless. Forget it, I didn't mean to explore your news, that Hongliang Niang is familiar with me, and even has some affection for me, of course I don't have those meanings, I just asked, she gave me all your news, and said what to try or not, but I just have the intention of drinking with you, where is the time to try?"

Jiang Ming was silent, and after a long time, he suddenly burst into anger and shouted: "Really, the little white face doesn't have a kind eye, so he knows that you have an unusual relationship with that Hongliang Niang!"

Lin Han was embarrassed and speechless: "Is this the key?"
