Chapter 288 The Plague is Coming
Looking at the flood under the mountain, Li Qing's face was full of anger, although fire and flooding are indeed a very clever strategy in war, but when you really feel this kind of human tragedy, you will find that life is never a simple number.
There are corpses that have been blistered into human shapes everywhere under the mountain, Li Qing suddenly felt a little worried in his heart, Julu is a small place, there are millions of troops, once an epidemic occurs, these people are probably very dangerous, and once Huaxia loses these elites, if there are foreign enemies in the future, Huaxia will be in danger.
For the plague in ancient times, although Li Qing was a disciple of the medical family, he did not have the slightest clue, even in later generations, for various infectious diseases, he needed to study carefully before he could barely treat them, and in this ancient world, it was obvious that he did not have such conditions.
Li Qing was ready to burn the corpses he saw as much as possible, so as not to breed bacteria and spread diseases, but what a person can do is always a drop in the bucket, Li Qing decided to take the risk to see Zhang Han and let Zhang Han send soldiers to help bury the body.
After Li Qing carefully checked his outfit to make sure that he would not be recognized, Li Qing rode the red wind and came to the camp where the Qin army was stationed on the mountain.
The Qin soldiers who were patrolling soon discovered Li Qing's existence, and they surrounded him, and the first junior colonel pointed at Li Qing and asked, "Who is coming, who dares to approach our army camp without authorization?" ”
Li Qing arched his hand and said, "I am a disciple of the medical family, and I am here to save your lives." ”
When the little school heard this, he laughed and said, "You young man is so loud, you dare to come here to talk wildly? ”
Li Qingzheng said: "Now, there is a big epidemic hit, if you don't listen to me, I'm afraid you will all worry about your life." ”
Where is Junior Colonel Qin Jun willing to believe, only if Li Qing is a fallacy to confuse the public, he will let his subordinates drive Li Qing away, and at this moment, Sima Xin discovered the chaos outside the camp and walked over.
Sima Xin asked Xiao Xiaoxiao, "What's the matter?" ”
Xiao Xiao hurriedly told Sima Xin what Li Qing said, and after Sima Xin listened, he looked at Li Qing with a solemn face and said, "Are you really a disciple of the medical family?" ”
Li Qing nodded, he was indeed an orthodox medical disciple, although he, a medical disciple, had only seen Zhu Ying as a medical disciple so far.
Sima Xin thought for a while and said to Li Qing, "You come with me." ”
Sima Xin took Li Qing into the camp, but he did not take Li Qing directly to see Zhang Han, but took Li Qing to his tent.
Sima Xin looked at Li Qing and said, "You just said that there will be a big epidemic in the near future, is there any evidence?" ”
Li Qing nodded and said, "The water is full of corpses, if these corpses are not disposed of quickly, they will pollute the land water source, and if they drink such water, the soldiers will definitely get sick." ”
Sima Xin smiled slightly and said, "In other words, you can't be sure if there will be a plague now?" ”
When Li Qing heard this, he said in a deep voice: "I can be sure that if those corpses under the mountain are not disposed of, they will definitely induce a plague, please believe me, general." ”
Sima Xin said: "If you want me to believe you, it's okay, I have a nephew who has recently contracted a cold and has found several doctors, but they have not been cured, if you cure my nephew, I will take you to see General Zhang Han." ”
Sima Xin's nephew, named Sima Yun, is a nineteen-year-old boy, Sima Xin took him to the army for training, I don't want to suddenly catch a cold recently, Sima Xin has found several doctors, but they have not been able to cure him, so as soon as Sima Xin heard that Li Qing was a disciple of the doctor, he immediately left Li Qing behind.
In fact, Sima Xin did not believe very much in Li Qing's plague theory, the plague, in ancient times, was not regarded as a disease, but a kind of heavenly punishment, a kind of punishment given by God to the world, when encountering the plague, no one has ever thought about curing the plague, but they all want to escape from the plague, fortunately, the transportation is inconvenient in ancient times, otherwise, there will really be a big plague, I am afraid that the whole of China will be devastated.
Li Qing checked Sima Yun's pulse, Sima Yun's pulse seemed to be weak, as if there was nothing, Li Qing rolled Sima Yun's eyelids again, and his eyes couldn't help but become solemn.
Li Qing opened his mouth and said, "When did this little general's situation start? ”
Sima Xin said: "About half a month ago, my military affairs were complicated, and I couldn't take good care of him, poor my Sima family is this only seedling, if he has three long and two short, my Sima family, but it will be the last." ”
Looking at Sima Xin with a sad face, Li Qing couldn't help but feel compassion and was determined to treat Sima Yun well.
After careful inspection, Li Qing's heart gradually sank, he looked at Sima Xin and asked, "I wonder if the general can take me to see the water source in the army?" ”
When Sima Xin heard this, he was slightly stunned and asked, "Does this have anything to do with my nephew's illness?" ”
Li Qing nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, it has a lot to do with it." ”
Sima Xin took Li Qing to a small river, which was one of the drinking places of the Qin army.
Li Qing looked at the muddy yellow river and frowned, at this moment, several soldiers came over from a distance, directly held the water in their hands and drank it, Li Qing was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.
The soldiers of the Qin army looked at Li Qing with dissatisfaction and said, "Who are you?" Why do you stop us from drinking water? ”
Li Qing said: "You can't drink this water directly, you need to boil the water, and then let it cool to drink, drink it directly, you will get sick." ”
The soldiers of the Qin army looked at Li Qing in disbelief, and at this moment, he saw Sima Xin behind Li Qing, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly saluted Sima Xin.
Sima Xin pointed to the river water and said, "Sir, are you saying that my Yun'er got sick because she drank this river water?" ”
Li Qing nodded and said, "Yes, the little general's illness should have something to do with this water." ”
Sima Xin said: "How can you see it? This water is used by the soldiers of our two battalions for cooking, and I also drink the water here on weekdays, so why is Yun'er sick when the rest of us are fine? ”
Hearing Sima Xin's words, the faces of the soldiers of the Qin Army who were fetching water became a little strange, and when Li Qing saw this, he hurriedly asked, "But there are still people in the army who are sick?" ”
The soldiers of the Qin army glanced at Sima Xin, and then said, "Recently, many brothers have had problems with vomiting and diarrhea, and a few brothers have died. ”
Li Qing's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly asked, "What about the corpses of those sick and dead soldiers?" ”
The Qin soldiers said, "The captain told us to throw them down the mountain and bury them." ”
Li Qing covered his forehead, his face became a little ugly, and then said to Sima Xin: "Trouble, if I guessed correctly, the plague has come." ”
