Chapter 212: Nine Lives Cat Demon

The lynx was squatting on the top of a hill with a straw in her mouth and a depressed face.

The big boss asked him to go to Xingxian to find some hungry people to come back and farm, and when he went, the people were also found, more than 1,300.

Unexpectedly, what he brought back turned out to be a big trouble, and some of those hungry people had a big head plague.

As soon as he returned to Lanxian County after crossing Luya Mountain, a few died on the same day, and more than 30 died the next day, and the dead bodies were all black in their hands and feet, swollen necks, and had many pimples on their bodies.

Fortunately, Mr. Wang told him not to enter the village, otherwise the disease would have to be spread to other people.

Now, he and 300 Guan Di army, and 1,300 hungry people are placed in Beimiao Mountain, more than 20 miles south of Dongcun, all the hungry people and Guan Di army are divided into a group of 3 to 50 people, and build grass huts in several mountains of Beimiao Mountain to live, and the grass huts of each group are at least 50 steps apart.

Luo Da Niu led a thousand Guan Emperor troops to surround the entire Beimiao Mountain tightly, and did not let anyone get away, and then brought them cauldrons, grain, lime powder, and transferred a large number of villagers to help them carry water, everyone must take a bath, clothes, bedding, other luggage, etc., all put in water to boil, and the hair is cut short, at most it can only be left a few inches long, and it is best to shave them all.

The big boss said that the big head plague is infected by fleas, and as long as the fleas are completely eliminated, the disease will not spread.

The lynx himself took the lead, shaved his long, messy hair, soaked in hot baths, sprinkled lime, boiled his clothes, and then told the villagers that whoever didn't do it was a dead end.

After the 300 Guan Emperor troops all shaved their hair and became all bald, the more than 1,000 hungry people who were already frightened also shaved their hair in the cries all over the mountains, and then obediently bathed and cooked clothes.

But there are also many people who refuse to cut their hair, saying that their parents who have their hair and skin will not cut their hair even when they die.

The lynx did not kill these people, but only separated them from others, let them live far away, and did not approach the others for a hundred steps, otherwise they would not be killed.

On the day of shaving his head, Luo Da Niu threw a bag of things far away to the bobcat, saying that it was given to him by the big boss, and asked him to apply the garlic and vinegar in it to his body, and looked at his big bald head and said with a smile, The cat has nine lives, and your boy's life is the hardest of all the brothers, and relax and stay here, and you can go back in ten days.

After carefully explaining what he should do with those hungry people and corpses, Luo Da Niu left.

Bobcat knows that he is not a cat demon and does not have nine lives.

Just two days after he returned, hundreds of people fell ill, and there were even five Guan Di Jun.

On the third day, the big boss came, strode towards him, he hurriedly retreated, and took more than a dozen steps back, and the big boss stopped.

Then, the big boss sat on the ground for a long time with him about twenty paces away.

After the big boss left, he sat on the mountain beam, holding straw in his mouth, looking at the villagers who were carrying water back and forth by the Lan River in the distance, as well as the Guan Di army who patrolled by the mountain from time to time.

The villagers in the opposite East Village boiled water to bathe and cook clothes, smoked the houses with firewood, smoked the rat holes, etc., the fireworks did not stop from morning to night, and from time to time there were bursts of crying, which should be the cry of being forced to cut their hair.

On the fourth day, there were more than 200 people who fell ill, including 12 Guan Emperor soldiers, and nearly 100 people had died of illness.

On the fifth day, the incidence of the disease suddenly increased to more than 400 people, and more than 200 died of illness, and the sound of crying and moaning filled the entire Beimiao Mountain, day and night.

When the big boss came to see him, his expression was obviously a little heavy.

On the sixth day, there were less than 100 sick people on this day, but more than 300 people died.

On the seventh day, the big boss came again, and said with a smile that he had been staying up for seven days, and he would be fine if he stayed up for another three days.

After another three days, the lynx was finally relieved that he was not ill.

He took a bath, sprinkled lime powder, put on a new set of clothes and stepped on a stone to walk through a charcoal fire, then smiled and greeted the big boss and others.

Among the three hundred Guan Emperor troops, only two hundred and forty people were able to get out of Beimiao Mountain, most of the rest died inside, and a few who did not die still stayed on the mountain for treatment, and a few Guan Emperor soldiers wore wax-soaked clothes, wrapped their whole bodies tightly, and stayed on the mountain to pour antidote soup for them every day.

There are only about 600 hungry people left who can get out of Beimiao Mountain, about 600 who died of illness, and the remaining 100 or so stay on the mountain to resign themselves to fate.

The big boss said that it was a great fortune to be able to survive half of the people.

The more than 600 hungry people were placed in a deserted village at the foot of Luya Mountain, and the relevant imperial army was specially guarded, and no one was allowed to go out for a short time.

Bobcat and the two hundred and forty surviving Guan Emperor soldiers were also placed in a deserted village, so they were regarded as resting and recuperating for another ten days and half a month, and they could only go back after confirming that no one was sick.

Fortunately, these hungry people did not come into contact with other villagers, and the people in Jingle and Lanxian did not get sick for the time being, and after a thorough purge of 10 days, the villagers continued to build water conservancy, farmland, roads, and so on.

However, travel is still restricted, and no one is allowed to visit other villages except for work, and from now on they must also pay attention to cleanliness, bathe, wash clothes, and clean the house frequently.

Once you find the traces of rats, you have to smoke and flood them to get rid of them.

Emperor Guan's army blocked all access roads in the hinterland of Luliang Mountain, and even a few mountain paths were guarded to intercept all hungry people who tried to enter.

These hungry people were not driven away, but were all isolated, bathed, cut their hair and cooked their clothes, and only those who did not get sick after ten days could enter the territory of Luliang Mountain.

The Black Mountain Coal Yard and Mine have been suspended for more than ten days, and Yan Sanqi has opened three new quarries on the mountain, burning quicklime day and night.

Lao Huang returned with more than 7,000 hungry people, and was placed in the area of the northern slope of Guandi Mountain, isolated in groups of 50 people, almost all the ravines on the northern slope of Guandi Mountain.

These hungry people were all brought back from Wubao, and the plague had not yet crossed the Yellow River into Shaanxi, so these people were basically not infected.

As soon as Lao Huang transported more than 7,000 people across the river, the Guan Emperor army sent by Qin Chuan to meet him arrived.

got the news of the outbreak of the big head plague, and Lao Huang, who has always been stupid and happy, locked his brows tightly.

On the way back to Luliang Mountain, he no longer accepted any hungry people, and tried to avoid official roads, picked small roads with few people, and tried not to contact outsiders.

Even so, when they returned to Guandi Mountain, there were still dozens of hungry people who had a big head plague.

Qin Chuan attaches great importance to this group of people, because there are too many people to make any mistakes.

On the first day of Lao Huang's return, he personally led 2,000 Guan imperial troops to blockade the surroundings, and surrounded them tightly, all the hungry people who dared to run around were killed, and those who did not bathe or cook their clothes were all killed, and those who were unwilling to cut their hair were all placed in the farthest valley and treated differently.

Because of the timely prevention and control, not many of these hungry people were infected.

Five days after returning to Guandi Mountain, only about 200 people fell ill.

The incubation period of the plague is very short, usually only two or three days, a few reach six or seven days, and almost no more than ten days.

In other words, the vast majority of these 7,000 hungry people are safe.

For more than ten days, Qin Chuan has been running around, directing epidemic prevention everywhere, and he was completely relieved after the whole situation stabilized.

After returning to the rejuvenated Mengjiazhuang for a day of rest, he went to Montenegro again.

In the past ten days of plague prevention and control, Chen Zhan's work has not been left behind, and he has made nearly ten molds of rails and iron wheels.

Moreover, the cement factory had already burned several samples, and he had to see what proportion of cement was closer to the cement of later generations.
