Chapter 25 Qi County
A team of more than 20 people stopped outside the tea shed, led by two men in fancy clothes.
He was in his early twenties in a green suit, and he was only sixteen or seventeen years old in a blue suit. Both of them are handsome and noble sons, especially the young man, who is carved in pink, a boy and a girl, and deliberately dressed up, he looks more beautiful than a woman.
Behind him, a team of people and horses in various brocade clothes, wearing treasure knives at their waists, and their breath is calm, and it is not easy to look at the origin.
This movement woke up the old man who was napping. The blurry old eyes looked at the person and couldn't help but be startled.
This road is usually passed by some business tourists, where can you see so many nobles at one time!
The two men in Chinese clothes sat down separately, and the man in green looked in the direction of Qing Li, but he retracted his gaze for a moment, but the young man in blue was much more moved, looked around, and finally fell on Qing Li.
It's not uncommon to see such a beautiful son in the wilderness?
"Old man, get some food!" The blue-clothed young man commanded, and then began to look Qing Li up and down.
There was some disdain in his eyes, and he muttered in his heart: He looks good, but he is definitely not as good-looking as him, and he is so thin and not a few people, he looks like a little white face! Or this son Yushu is handsome and chic!
The more he thought about it, the more proud he became, and raised his eyebrows defiantly at Qing Li.
Qing Li doesn't care, the other party is still a child, and she can't care, but Ziya's hand holding the tea bowl is heavy. This kid really doesn't know how thick the sky is!
The plain white jade hand pressed his wrist, Qing Li smiled and shook his head, "It's almost over, let's go." ”
Although Ziya was unwilling, he still listened to his master's orders. Settled the tea money. The two of them departed.
Seeing that the people who could have fun were gone, the young man in blue suddenly became excited, and it happened that the old man brought up a few steamed buns, and he couldn't help but scold as soon as he saw his appearance: "Oops! Stinky old man, what are you? For dogs? "Ahh It's so ugly that even dogs don't eat it!
The old man smiled embarrassedly, "Childe, this is the only place in the wilderness...... "Sure enough, not every noble young master is like the one just now, who is both polite and gentle.
"You!" The young man in blue wanted to say something, but the man in green stopped him, "Ninth brother, sit down!" ”
The young man closed his mouth stupidly, glanced at the steamed bun with disgust, and sat as far away as he could.
The man in Tsing Yi waved his hand to the old man, and when he retreated, he turned around and said, "Ninth brother, when you go out, you are low-key." ”
His heart was helpless. The ninth brother is too anxious and unreliable, and he is by no means the master who can do things with peace of mind, and it would be good if he could not cause trouble! I really don't know what the intention of my father's move is?
Ling Qianmo looked at the sulky and awkward delicate young man and shook his head weakly. I picked up a bowl of coarse grain steamed buns, and my face was a little ugly as soon as I took a bite, but I swallowed it in the end, but I never ate a bite again.
His eyes seemed to glance at Fang Caiqingli's position, and the steamed buns in the big bowl on the table had already been eaten, which made him stunned and a little more playful.
Looking at the charm of the son's attire, he should be either rich or expensive, and he can stand this kind of coarse food, but he is really a character!
……
Under Qing Li's hurry, he finally arrived in Qi County on the morning of the fifth day.
This is a small and medium-sized county town in Liangzhou, bordering Xichuan. Because the relationship between Ink and Xichuan has never been very harmonious, there is not much business contact, and the county is located in a remote area, so it is still relatively backward.
Nowadays, there are almost no people on the streets of Qixian County, most of the shops are closed, and even if they are open, there is no business, and the whole city is lifeless, how can there be a trace of vitality?
When Qing Li arrived at the city gate, he was also shocked by this scene.
She has been to this county once or twice before, although not to mention how rich and prosperous, but the people are simple and kind, and it can be regarded as lively, where is it as deserted and depressed as now?
Ziya looked deep and asked in a low voice, "Master, what now?" ”
Qing Li pondered for a moment, "Let's go to the Rejuvenation Hall first." "She wants to know the current situation, and the treasurer Wang definitely has the most detailed information there.
The Huichun Hall in Qi County naturally cannot be compared with Kyoto, and the scale of the lintel is much smaller, but as the core industry of the Qing family, the medical system is not bad.
The current rejuvenation hall can be described as overcrowded, and the doctors in the hall have long been too busy. The sick were sitting or lying down, all pale and distressed, and everywhere there were cries and moans. Moaning.
Qing Li hurriedly walked to a child who was vomiting, and his mother was already in tears at this time, so she could only pat the child's back to breathe.
Holding the child's wrist, Qing Li concentrated on the pulse, and the further back he went, the more puzzled his expression became.
This is obviously the pulse of typhoid fever, and it stands to reason that the Rejuvenation Hall can deal with it, how can it drag on like this?
With some disbelief in his heart, Qing Li stood up and went to check the pulse of several patients next to him, but the results were the same.
"Shopkeeper Wang!" Qing Li shouted in a deep voice.
A middle-aged man squatting in the crowd suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately stood up and looked at Qing Li excitedly.
"Miss!" Shopkeeper Wang was overjoyed, he didn't care about the men's clothes that Qing Li was wearing at this time, and the title was not changed for a while, but fortunately, no one noticed this aspect.
This call made a figure not far away stiffen, and after a while, a figure in cloth rushed over and rubbed into Qing Li's arms, his head resting on her neck socket and rubbing, "Qingqing, you are finally here!" ”
A low murmur floated beside Qing Li's ears, as if he had found a fishing boat stranded in the shallows, and all his worries and precautions were removed in an instant.
Jing Xuan's body was filled with a strong smell of medicine, and there was no jasmine fragrance in the past, and Qing Li was also a little distressed.
Gently patting Jing Xuan's shoulder, Qing Li pushed him away.
I haven't seen him for nearly a month, Jing Xuan still has that cute and handsome face, but he seems to have lost some weight, but he has also become a lot stronger, and the squeamishness that used to be horizontal between his eyebrows has disappeared.
Such a change made Qing Li very pleased.
Jing Xuan is the youngest son of the Jing family in the four families, and he has been held by the elders since he was a child, like a flower in a greenhouse, too squeamish. Uncle Jing ruthlessly sent him to this town to experience, just hoping that he could learn to grow up. Now it seems that the decision was the right one......
Without too much effort, Qing Li cut straight to the point, "What's the situation now?" What's going on with this disease? ”
Shopkeeper Wang sighed heavily: "In the past three months, there have been many such cases one after another, and this month has been even more raging. ”
"The patient's pulse is typhoid fever, and the symptoms are vomiting, diarrhea, fever and cough, but I use the prescription for treating typhoid fever, but it has no effect at all, and if it drags on for a long time, the person will not work......
The shopkeeper Wang is a little sad, he has been a doctor for decades, and he has always been looking to hear and ask for the right medicine, and he does not know how much the incurable diseases he has cured, but he has missed the front foot in this disease!
Qing Li frowned and pondered, how could it be so weird like the situation she had just taken her pulse?
"How many people are sick in the city now?"
"Nearly sixty percent."
"Sixty percent?!" Qing Li was stunned, could it be that it is still contagious? But sixty percent of the people in the city are sick, and this is too contagious!
The light light of his eyes swept over all the sick people in the lobby, the elderly, the weak, women and children, and the adult men.
It stands to reason that the elderly and children are more susceptible to illness because of their weak resistance, but it is strange that even strong adult men have fallen most of them!
Moreover, there are many seemingly delicate women who are in good health, which is intriguing......
"Go ahead and get busy, let me see." She had to study this strange disease......
