"No! you must not lead a team out to look for medicinal herbs!" Xia Jiayue stood up with a panicked face and blurted out.

Headquarters, conference room.

City Lord Zhou Wugong, Deputy City Lord Xu Jinchang, Chief Official Xia Jiayue, and Deputy Chief Officer Xia Nu were all present.

Medical Officer James Dyson was also present as the head of medical care.

This time, Black Earth City is facing a deadly crisis.

In just seven days, it took less than seven days from the discovery of the first case to the spread to the entire Black Earth City.

Within seven days, almost everyone in Black Earth City was infected with that strange disease, the muscles of the whole body atrophied sharply, the black blood vessels on the surface of the body burst out, the fascia contracted, and the situation was terrible.

Only those who have cultivated can resist this disease a little, which is also because the cultivator's life force is strong, and the body's ability to resist and resolve external evils is strong.

The ordinary laborers, the frail old people, the women, the children, are already in danger, and people are already dying.

"It can't be delayed, the medicine in the city can only hang its life, it can't be cured, if you can't find any herbs that can treat this blood epidemic, at most ten days, everyone here except Gou Chen will die. ”

The polite medical officer, Dyson, had a stern expression and was resolute about going out to find herbs.

Those outside of the Gou Chen Realm will die?!

As soon as Dyson's words came out, several people in power here changed their colors.

Wouldn't that be 30,000 or 40,000 city residents, but only more than 1,000 remained?

Xia Jiayue looked at Dyson's gaze with deep concern: "But you have no experience in going out, you have never stepped out of Black Earth City, it is too dangerous for you to go like this!"

"Dr. Dyson, you are the backbone of the city's medical department, and if you leave, the confidence of the doctors will be affected, and besides, you yourself are not very strong,"

Xia Nu spoke very slowly, but inexplicably gave people a calm strength,

"I'll go anyway, you just need to tell me what kind of herbs I need and where I can find them. ”

"No," Xia Jiayue also vetoed, "At this time, the pressure on the city guards has increased dramatically, and there may be riots in the city at any time, and you can't go!"

Xia Jiayue defended his own people like this, and the city lord Zhou Wugong and the deputy city lord Xu Jinchang saw it in their eyes, and their hearts were full of various thoughts.

Xia Nu is Xia Jiayue's father, and Dyson is Xia Jiayue's lover, although Xia Jiayue has a certain truth, but such obvious favoritism can't help but cause the two to be a little unhappy.

Xu Jinchang is in charge of the materials and production of Black Earth City, he does not want to offend Xia Huntyue, who has a heavy army, but in the face of such a big crisis, someone must come forward and skillfully throw out a question:

"Now the production in the city is basically at a standstill, at most five days, the stock of food will be eaten, and the autumn harvest is about to begin, there are not enough manpower, once the weather changes, we will be very sad this winter, and I am afraid that there will be no fewer deaths than this blood plague by then." ”

Xia Jiayue insisted: "The city defenders must have someone in charge, and the medical department must also have someone to boost morale, neither of you can go, this is my opinion." ”

Even Xu Jinchang, who is quite deep in the city government, is a little unable to suppress his anger in the face of such an unreasonable city guard chief, seeing Xia Jiayue repeatedly forcibly protecting his own people, Xu Jinchang can't help asking: "What about finding herbs?"

"You can send Annan to take the earth guards, their families are in the city, and they are not afraid that he will dare not listen. Xia Jiayue quickly said what was in his heart.

City Lord Zhou Wugong is a kind old man, he frowned slightly when he heard this, and said: "You are fooling around, Annan is the commander of a military army, you humiliated him in public, locked him up, removed his position, and reduced the distribution of materials for the Tuwei, and now you want him to give you his life, with his temper, how can he be obedient, aren't you afraid that he will gather the Tuwei to rebel." ”

Xia Nu also shook his head and vetoed: "Annan can't let it go." ”

Now that Black Earth City is in chaos, the situation is already very tense, and there are even voices of abandoning worthless civilians to preserve the warriors.

Many soldiers are also panicked, for fear of contracting the blood epidemic, and they will not be sick in the first place, but they will become sick, so they will not be able to protect their families.

Many families have only one warrior, and only when the next generation of fighters is cultivated can someone take over, and life will not be too hard.

If the warrior falls, the house is ruined.

"I also don't agree with letting Annan be reinstated, now the Tuwei are very resentful, if Annan takes this opportunity to make trouble and seize control of the army, everyone will become passive. The garrison is also an elite division, and if the city defenders defect, it will be a complete chaos. Xu Jinchang also said what he thought in his heart.

"Don't argue, it's safest for me to lead the team," Dyson said, "Finding herbs is not about the ability to fight, it's about the ability to identify herbs, but also about the ability to change the appropriate treatment plan for the different herbs found." ”

"Now I only know that the disease that spreads is a kind of blood epidemic, I can't be sure which disease it is, there are no targeted medicinal materials, I can only say that I can find something that can be used, bring it back first, at least I can continue my life. ”

"When you find herbs, you also need to find auxiliary herbs, and the herbs have different habits, and the areas of the branch are also different. ”

"This is a fight for medical knowledge, not combat ability, so I must personally lead the team in order to find as many suitable herbs as possible. ”

As soon as Dyson finished speaking, the room fell silent.

The chief officer of the castle guard is Natsuki, and at this time, Natsutsuki must make a decision.

After a period of coldness, Xia Hunting Yue raised her head suddenly, and her soft lips lightly opened: "Father, you took out some people from the city defenders and garrisons, cooperated with Dyson, and went out to look for medicinal herbs." ”

After Xia Jiayue finished speaking, she walked out of the conference room without looking back.

Xia Nu was slightly apologetic and smiled bitterly at everyone: "Young man, give her a little time to grow." ”

Everyone couldn't help but feel helpless.

Xia Jiayue is impulsive and willful, thinks straightforwardly, and sometimes does things more simply and rudely than men, no matter how you look at it, she is not a suitable person in power.

If it weren't for Xia Jiayue's cultivation talent being really good, and her cultivation at a young age was already ranked first in Black Earth City, she would not have been able to sit in the position of this chief official.

But in today's generation, martial arts are respected, and what can they do except guide them slowly.

It is really difficult to train a girl to be a chief officer.

...........................

West City Gate, Resident Square.

"Hurry up~~ Stand up, don't give me a half-dead look!

Liu Xun, the chief teacher of the secondary school, urged urgently to a group of students.

Dozens of cadets were urgently summoned, and in the morning, they brought their marching equipment in accordance with the standards of field operations and gathered at the west gate.

Liu Xun is a middle-aged teacher in his 40s who has been teaching in secondary schools for more than 20 years.

Liu Xun is slightly fat, and because of his long-term coaching, he has a strong teacher's temperament and looks quite majestic.

At this time, on his serious face, there was a rare deep worry.

Although Liu Xun taught Xi repeatedly impatiently urging these naughty monkey-like students to quickly stand in line, it was rare that Liu Xun did not reprimand too much, but with a paternalistic earnest entrustment.

"Everyone knows that there are still seven days before the scheduled time of the big exam, but due to special circumstances in our Black Earth City Safety Zone, the tasks and time of the big exam have been adjusted. ”

"Everyone has also seen that there are only so many people who have the ability to take the exam now, and the rest have been naturally eliminated because they are not cultivated enough to resist the blood epidemic!"

"You fifty-seven people are the candidates who took the big exam this time, and the big exam task starts today. ”

"The difficulty of the big test task has increased this time, it was originally a 'semi-actual combat mission', but now it has become a 'complete combat mission', and the assessment officer is our city guard soldier. ”

"Although the difficulty has increased, you are the best students of this year in Black Earth City, and I believe you can overcome it. ”

"Children, from today onwards, you will no longer be a cadet, but you will be held to the standard of a warrior, and you must be convinced that the knowledge and skills you have learned in the academy will enable you to survive on the battlefield,"

In the end, Liu Xun couldn't help choking: "Finally, I wish you all a safe return!"

The first cool breeze of autumn blew the Buddha, swept over a leafy tree on the edge of the station, a dead leaf withered, drifting with the cold wind, I don't know where to go.

The autumn wind is up.
