Chapter 18: Remembering the unkindness of heaven and earth, and taking all things as dogs
Ye Hu's letter was very short, originally sandwiched in Shen He's official letter to Fang Zhijing, in which Ye Hu briefly explained the location of Orion Village, as well as the situation of Qingxuan and Ye Mu.
At the end of the letter, Ye Hu wrote: Recently, I was shocked to hear that the plague in Qingzhou was rampant, the victims were everywhere, and the last general was unable to sleep and eat day and night, and he was really worried about the old mother and wife at home, and he couldn't wait for a thousand miles a day, and return to his hometown to share the danger with his family, life and death go hand in hand, but the king's order could not be violated, Ye Hu was a general guarding the border pass, and he did not dare to leave his post without permission, so he could only pray to the sky to hang the curtain in the air, in the hope that Qingzhou could get out of trouble as soon as possible, at this time, I also hope that Lord Fang can take more care of my mother and wife Qingxuan, Ye Hu is grateful!
With few numbers, the love is sincere, Qing Xuan couldn't help crying, she knew that Ye Hu was a person, if she wasn't extremely concerned, how could she easily ask for someone!
"Lord Ye, it's Qing Xuan's rudeness, please come in!" Qing Xuan saw that he did have Ye Hu's letter, and it was not good to block him at the entrance of the village again, so he hurriedly invited Ye Qingyun and the others into the medicine furnace.
At this time, Ye Mu had already woken up, and Xiao Wu was feeding her medicine.
"A-Niang, Ye Hu has a letter coming, I will read it to you." Qing Xuan hurriedly happily read Ye Hu's letter to Mother Ye.
After hearing it at the first time, Ye's mother was in tears, she knew that her limit was approaching, and her life was short, maybe she couldn't wait for her son to come to see her for the last time, before she died, she knew that her son was so concerned about herself, how could she not be heartbroken.
"Auntie, don't be sad, Qingxuan will always be with you!" Seeing Ye Mu like this, Qing Xuan couldn't help but feel sad.
"Qingxuan, that lord is here to invite you into the city, right?" Ye Mu was weak, and pointed to Ye Qingyun at the door tremblingly and asked.
Hearing this, Qing Xuan immediately glared at Xiao Wu who was standing next to him, Xiao Wu knew that he was not choosing what to say, so he hurriedly lowered his head.
"Yes, old lady, in Xia Ye Qingyun, entrusted by Lord Fang, I invite the Qingxuan Doctor Immortal to come out of the mountain and develop a good recipe for this plague together." Ye Qingyun saw Ye Mu pointing at him, and hurriedly approached Ye Mu's bed, and then naturally put his hand on Ye Mu's veins, and looked at Qing Xuan after a long time, with a solemn face.
Qing Xuan saw that he was so skilled, and knew that he was also a person who studied medicine, and then thought that he was friendly with Bo Yan, and his heart couldn't help but rise hope, so he moved to the hospital with him to talk.
"What can you see?" Qing Xuan asked.
"The old lady is already terminally ill, and the medicine stone has no cure." Ye Qingyun let out a long sigh and turned to affirmation.
Although Qingxuan also knew that A-Niang was suffering from a chronic illness and it was difficult to return, he had always refused to accept the reality, and he always had a glimmer of hope, but now seeing that he was so sure of what he said, he couldn't help but feel sad and couldn't help shedding two lines of tears.
"Senior sister, you have to mourn! The old lady is old, this is the law of nature, you can't force it! Ye Qingyun comforted, quite Taoist inaction.
"My lord now knows why I can't go to the capital with you to make medicines, on the one hand, I really have shallow medical skills, on the other hand, A-Niang is in this situation now, Ye Hu is not around, I can't leave her." Qingxuan explained.
"Senior sister, you have to believe in yourself, you are a child raised by your mother and the medicine god Bo Yan personally, when it comes to medical skills, who else in this world can be better than you, the old lady has long run out of oil, and you have let her last so long, just ask who else in this world can do it." It is difficult for Ye Qingyun to have such a positive color.
"But now in this situation, how can I leave A-Niang." Qing Xuan said helplessly.
"Otherwise, we will take the old lady to the capital, and then find a few suitable servants to wait in the official post, so that you can take care of the old lady and help with the medicine." Ye Qingyun thought for a while and suggested.
"But A-Niang, she has lived in Orion Village all her life, how could she agree to leave here at this time." Qing Xuan shook his head.
"You can leave it to me, old lady, and I will convince the old lady."
Ye Qingyun then said: "Senior sister, you may not know how serious the Qingzhou epidemic has become, if the antidote is not issued for a day, hundreds of people will die due to the plague, and thousands of people will be infected because of it, and so on, within half a year, Qingzhou will become a purgatory on earth, and the whole world will be affected." ”
Qing Xuan was slightly stunned when she heard this, Lord Fang had also mentioned this last time, but she didn't care about it at the time, thinking that Lord Fang was exaggerating, but now when she heard Ye Qingyun say it, she suddenly felt like she was there.
"Senior sister, look at this."
"What is this?" Qing Xuan took the stack of thick things handed over by Ye Qingyun.
"The songs of the counties and counties in Qingzhou, take a look!"
Qing Xuan took it, and then casually took out a sheet from it and read silently.
"Quan'an County, Qingzhou, the county lord Feng Qingzuo, the next official is guilty of a capital crime, since the beginning of the month, the number of infected people in this county has been increasing, and it has become an out-of-control trend.
"Huangmei County, Qingzhou: There is a family that has died to 38 people, totaling more than 3,400 people, and there are whole families exterminated, counting more than 800 households; When both parents die and children flee, people are afraid of being stained, and there is no way for beggars to eat, and there is nothing to rest for, and it is really pitiful to cry and move. ”
Qing Xuan was shocked, and hurriedly flipped back again, and all he saw was the tragic situation in various places.
"Eight or nine people died in a family, or six or seven people died, or three or four people died in a family on the same day, or the whole family was lying down, no one supported them, the infection continued, and there were many sick people."
"How could it be, how could it be so serious? I thought it was just an exaggeration. Qing Xuan cried bitterly, and couldn't help but think of the tragic situation in various places in his mind, his chest rose and fell violently, and he couldn't help but die. I didn't dare to look at it anymore.
"These were all written three days ago, and now I'm afraid it's even worse."
Ye Qingyun sighed, and then suddenly straightened his clothes, his face was solemn, he faced Qingxuan with his hands on the ginseng, raised it above his head, and bowed: "Qingzhou corroborator Ye Qingyun represents the entire Qingzhou people, and implores Qingxuan Medical Immortal to go out of the mountain to save the people!" ”
"I implore the Qingxuan Doctor Immortal to come out of the mountain to save the people!" Seeing that the adults of his family had already made such a great gift, dozens of followers did not dare to slack off, and all of them paid homage together, and the shouts continued to echo in the valley!
"Qingxuan, go with the adults, don't think of me, A-Niang knows that you are a filial child, but A-Niang's body is now powerless to return to the sky, you just let A-Niang spend the last period of time here!" I don't know when Aunt Ye has walked to the door tremblingly with Xiao Wu's support.
"No, A-Niang, I promised Ye Hu to take good care of you, how can I leave you at this time!" Qing Xuan couldn't help but hug Aunt Ye and cried.
"Go, kid, Ah Hu fought bravely to kill the enemy at the border pass is also to save the people at the border pass, now you can save the people of Qingzhou, if you don't save it, Ah Hu will also blame you, my son I understand, he must want you to go at this time." After Aunt Ye finished speaking, she kept coughing, and her face was like gold leaf for a while.
"A-Niang, A-Niang!" Qing Xuan shouted, and hurriedly helped Aunt Ye to lie on the bed.
"Go, go, go......" Aunt Ye seemed to have exhausted all her strength, but she still maintained the posture of pushing Qing Xuanwang outward, and kept muttering in her mouth.
"Sister Qing, let's go, I'll take care of the eldest lady, don't worry!" Xiao Wu also cried.
Qingxuan had to sigh, she had been with A-Niang for so many years, and she knew A-Niang's temperament, once she decided something, there was no room for turn, so she raised her head, forced all the tears in her eyes back, and looked at A-Niang, who was already extremely weak on the bed, for a long time, and finally nodded with difficulty in the face of Ye Qingyun!
