0059: The Great Plague

Ask Sima Hui for advice on various knowledge doubts every day, talk about scriptures and Taoism with Guo Jia or Xun Yu's uncle and nephew who came to ask for advice in his spare time, or try martial arts with Lu Bu and Dian Wei, and tease Xiaobai, this kind of small life is also quite comfortable.

If there were no accidents, perhaps Li Yi would have felt that he would stay until the year before the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out. Hawkers, speaking of which, not long ago, when Li Yi was chatting with everyone, he suddenly found that it was now 2 years of Guanghe.

In fact, strictly speaking, although each change of the era name is not as reported on the Internet and various media as in later generations, so that the world can immediately know about this matter, but because the meaning of the era name is also very important, after the imperial court changes the era name, it will immediately send an order to the various state capitals, so that they are responsible for notifying the local people.

It's just that when the era name was changed, Li Yi had already embarked on a journey to Youzhou, and with the boring question of who had nothing to do would ask others what year it was, the result was that two years had passed before Li Yi knew that the era name had changed.

"The Yellow Turban Rebellion is a matter of 7 years of light and harmony, so there will be 5 more years......" Li Yi thought to himself.

Staying in Yingchuan until the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out before rushing back to Bingzhou, this kind of thing is naturally a joke. If Li Yi was free, he wouldn't mind staying in Yingchuan and waiting for the Yellow Turban Rebellion to break out. But as the head of the Li family, how could he give up the family?

As for the development of returning to Bingzhou, Li Yi has already made plans, although Zhang Huan, Wang Yun and others all hope that Li Yi can enter the Tongzi Department, but Li Yi decided to stay in the place after learning the time when the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out. After all, God knows how long it will take to decentralize the place, although it may be better to develop during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Li Yi still feels that it will be more conducive to the development of himself and the Li family in the local area.

However, just when Li Yi was thinking about when to leave and return to the state, an incident happened that made him think about it.

"What?! There is a big epidemic in Yanzhou and north of the Yangtze River?! Li Yi looked at Xun Yu in shock, obviously shocked by the words in his mouth.

"Yes, according to the preliminary investigation, the outbreak is in Yanzhou East County and Yangzhou Lujiang County. As for whether it is a plague, it is still under investigation. Xun You said with a solemn face.

The word "pandemic" is not unfamiliar to Li Yi, a large-scale civilian population infected with a contagious disease. In fact, as long as you flip through the history books, you will find that this word will appear in almost all countries and all eras, the only difference is the number of times it appears and the severity of the epidemic.

In fact, in the 14 years since Li Yi came to this era, he has encountered two major epidemics, namely in the 4th year of Jianning and the 2nd year of Xiping, but at that time he only heard about it, and did not see it with his own eyes.

"Well, I hope it won't be the plague." Sima Hui sighed, and there was indescribable helplessness and sadness in his tone.

In this era, because there is no effective treatment, as long as the plague breaks out, it brings a massive population decline. And because all epidemics that can be named the word plague are very contagious diseases, once they break out, they are not comparable to ordinary epidemics.

"Virtue and Gong, righteousness is ready to return to the state......" After a moment of silence, Li Yi suddenly said to Sima Hui respectfully.

"Back to the state?" Sima Hui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then reacted that Li Yi was worried about the situation in Bingzhou.

"It's fine." Sima Hui nodded when he heard this, then motioned for Li Yi to wait, got up and walked into the thatched house, and soon after walking in, he walked out with a few copies of Jian Ce. "Zikang, these are the things I have compiled during this time, some of the experiences of the military books written by Sun Bin, Sun Tzu and other sages, you can take them back." Sima Hui said, putting these simple strategies in Li Yi's hands.

"This ...... Virtue and Virtue ...... Isn't that too precious? When Li Yi heard this, he was excited for a while and didn't know what to say, in this era when most of the books were monopolized by the family, Li Yi knew how much value these things were in his hands.

Moreover, this is not only the simple [Sun Bin Art of War] and [Sun Tzu's Art of War], but more importantly, there is also Sima Hui's new! Looking at the scorching eyes of Guo Jia and Xun Yu on the side, you can know the value of these simple strategies. You must know that they have a collection of books at home, it is impossible not to have these art of war, but Sima Hui's experience is ......

It's just that although Li Yi said that his mouth was too valuable, he quickly took those Jian Ce into his arms, as if he was a little slower, and he would be snatched away.

"Zikang, no matter what happens in the future, you must remember to use what you have learned in your life to benefit the people of the world!" Before leaving, Sima Hui took Li Yi's hand and admonished. Although he has met countless young talents in his life, Li Yi is neither the longest with him nor the most talented, but Sima Hui has a feeling that Li Yi's future will be higher than any young talent he has seen.

"Please rest assured!" Li Yi replied in a firm tone.

When he returned home and talked to Dian Wei and Lu Bu about this matter a little, Li Yi hurriedly took them back to Bingzhou. And in this regard, Dian Wei and Lu Bu did not have any objection. In fact, when they heard that there was a pandemic, especially when they heard about Yanzhou Dongjun, their expressions became very unnatural.

Although they will all be the tigers of the world in the future, in this era, who will not talk about the epidemic? Although it is only Yangzhou and Yanzhou at present, who knows if it will be transmitted to Bingzhou? You must know that Dongjun is only separated by a Wei County from Bingzhou.

After leaving Yangzhai, the three of them went all the way north, directly into Sili Henan Yin, and then continued north from Xinzheng to Xingyang. Speaking of which, his original plan was to leave Yingchuan and go all the way west to Hongnong to visit his mentor Zhang Huan, and by the way, to see the current Jingshi Luoyang. It's a pity that this pandemic has left Li Yi without any thoughts.

If there is one word to describe Li Yi's mood now, it is like an arrow. It is true that Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun have all lived well in history, which seems to prove that there should not be much epidemic in Bingzhou or Jiuyuan County. But the problem is that even if it is really a plague-stricken area, it is rare for everyone to die.

Although even if Li Yi goes back, it won't make any difference, because his medical knowledge is only at the level of ordinary people in later generations, and he knows that some things such as headache and fever are colds and need to take medicine. But how to say it? At least when he goes back, he doesn't have to worry as much as he does now.
