Chapter 140: The Plague is Rampant
"Lord Wang, it's not good!" This time it was a middle-aged man wearing armor and a saber at his waist, who was in high spirits, he ran all the way to Puyang Jing, panting breathlessly, and said, "Oh no, Lord Wang." ”
"Why are you so panicked?" Pu Yangjing sat still, he knew that only by being calm and calm down could he come up with a solution to the problem.
The person who shouted 'Oh no' just now, surnamed Zhang, named Zhen, and Ji Xuan, is the leader of the second grade. He was dressed in a wide and dense robe, and his body was tightly wrapped, and he looked like he had just come out of the epidemic-stricken area.
Zhang Zhen has not yet started to report, Ye Chen has already scanned his brain information: more and more people are infected with the 'plague', the epidemic is not under control, but infinitely worse, and the death toll has increased linearly.
"Lord Wang, more and more people are infected with the 'plague', the epidemic is not under control, but it is infinitely aggravated, and the death toll has increased linearly. Many officers and soldiers contracted the 'plague' because of carrying corpses, and died one after another. The others were frightened, and now that the number of corpses was increasing, no one was willing to carry them. Zhang Zhen anxiously reported to Pu Yangjing.
"Damn!" After Pu Yangjing listened to Zhang Zhen's report, the expression on his whole face changed, and he didn't have the calmness he had when he talked to Lin Ling just now.
Pu Yangjing turned around and left, Jing Yi and Zhang Zhen following closely behind him.
The officers and soldiers who carried the corpses were also infected with the 'plague', and it must have been because they did not take good precautions. Ye Chen raised his hand and conjured up a lot of masks and gloves in their carriage, and said Pu Yangjing: "Lord Wang." ”
Pu Yangjing turned around, Yechen took out a mask and a pair of gloves from the carriage, and demonstrated to Pu Yangjing in front of everyone: "These two things, so ......." Putting on a mask and gloves, he asked, "Do you see clearly?" If you give it to the officers and soldiers who come into contact with people infected with the 'plague', the chances of them being infected with the 'plague' will be much smaller." ”
"What is this, is it useful?" Pu Yangjing asked with some concern, Ye Chen had already gotten into the car and drove over in the carriage, and said, "Don't worry! ”
Where did the carriage of masks and gloves come from? Lin Ling was more surprised than anyone else, she could clearly remember that there were only two bags in the carriage.
"Let's go!" Pu Yangjing said to Zhang Zhen and Jing Yi, Ye Chen also followed to enter the county seat of Fuyun County, looked back at Lin Ling, and hesitated: "You don't go in! Wait for me here." ”
"I'm going too, I'm going to wait for us here. Lin Ling insisted on going to the epidemic-stricken area together, and proposed that Ye Yu stay, but Ye Ling also said that he would follow Lin Ling no matter what.
At the request of Yechen and Pu Yangjing, Lin Ling, Ye Yu, Jing Yi, Zhang Zhen and others all put on masks and gloves according to their demonstrations. Everyone wears a long coat that resembles a 'protective sweatshirt' and wraps their bodies to death.
In the county seat, there are many corpses lying on the streets. There were men, women and children, and the corpses were covered with red blood spots under the skin, and they were 'black and purple', and their bodies were all red with bitten marks.
Lin Ling, who has been pampered since childhood, has never seen such a tragic scene? Seeing those dead corpses foaming at the mouth and rolling their eyes, Lin Ling's heart couldn't help but roll, and she was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit.
"Kid... Don't be afraid, kid, you'll be fine... The prince has come to our rescue... , don't sleep, don't sleep..."
"My father... , you have to hold on... , the prince will definitely find a way to save us..."
"Niang... Niang... Woo, you don't want to die..."
"Xianggong... Don't leave... , please... Don't leave me..."
"God, why don't you take care of our poor people!"
……
The people pinned their last glimmer of hope for survival on Puyang Jing, and they believed that their prince would save them from the sea of suffering.
As soon as they saw Pu Yang Jing coming, the people knelt in front of Pu Yang Jing one after another, and kept kowtowing: "Lord Wang... Please, please save us..."
"Help us... Lord Wang..."
……
"Rest assured, the imperial physician Nangong Hua is developing an antidote to the 'plague', and I believe it will not take long to develop the antidote. Everyone must hold on, and never give up!" Pu Yangjing also encouraged the people, hoping to bring them strength so that they could work hard to resist the disease.
How can this scene not make people cry?
Yechen and Pu Yangjing distributed those masks and gloves to all the officers and soldiers and taught them to put them on, and the streets were full of crying, and the miserable people were in tears.
People sit next to each other in piles, serious and mildly ill people get together, and because of excessive fear, patients cry and encourage each other, no wonder the epidemic will worsen.
Pu Yangjing took Zhang Zhen and a few strong officers and soldiers to lift the antidote developed by the imperial doctor Nangong Hua before, and went around to feed it to those who were seriously ill, and at the same time ordered some officers and soldiers to carry the antidote to feed to other people, hoping to save their precious lives. The antidote was developed by Nangong Hua earlier, and it can only temporarily suppress the disease, but cannot eradicate it.
They sat in such a mess that they could not directly operate the medical function, and when they found out that the 'plague' was transmitted by rat and flea bites, respiratory infections, skin infections, digestive tract infections, etc., they immediately walked among the people and said to them, "Listen, everyone. Now, people who feel that they have irregular low-grade fever, mild systemic symptoms, swelling and pain in the neck, submandibular area, supraclavicular fossa, armpits, groin, etc., and occasional suppuration but no bleeding, all go to a relatively wide place. He turned to Lin Ling and said, "You go and get masks and gloves for them to put on." ”
After listening to Yechen's words, the people who had corresponding symptoms immediately took action and moved to a clearing.
"Oh... Okay!" Lin Ling didn't expect Yechen to ask her to help, but she didn't expect that she could help a little, so she went to the carriage to get a mask and gloves without saying a word.
"People with high fever, headache and fatigue, body aches and pains, occasional nausea, vomiting, irritability, skin ecchymosis, bleeding, and feeling swollen and painful by rat flea bites at the onset of the disease. But distinguish between certain distances and don't get too close together. Yechen said again, and only after they did so did he go on.
Some patients, even after drinking the antidote, are getting worse day by day. In order to prevent him from spreading the 'plague' to more people and affecting the healing of others, several officers and soldiers stood guard in front of the 'plague' patients who were about to die. This means that as soon as they die, their bodies are immediately carried away and burned with fire.
"Son... , why are you willing to leave your mother, let your mother send a white-haired person to a black-haired person... God, why are you so short-sighted!" A woman who was also infected with the 'plague' cried bitterly over her recently dead son, who was no more than seventeen or eighteen.
"Carry it away!" Pu Yangjing instructed the officers and soldiers who were guarding.
"Don't let anyone want to touch my son!" the woman raised her eyebrows and roared at the two officers and soldiers who had rushed forward to carry the corpse, "No one wants to separate me from my son!"
