Chapter Thirty-Eight: I Can Chew A Little More (Ask for Recommendations!) )

As soon as Jiang Yao came out of the tent, Mrs. Zhou saw her.

She was busy with her sisters-in-law and daughters-in-law in front of the pot.

When I arrived last night, it was already late, so I could only cook in a pot at will.

At this point, it has completely changed.

At the entrance of the cave, a whole row of canopies was built against the mountain.

Underneath is a neat row of stoves, some of which have not yet been built, and stones are scattered around.

There are also people who are fighting with muddy water next to them.

There were also young men carrying stones they had picked up from the mountains.

Mrs. Zhou and the others were busy making midday snacks, which were prepared for the men who were doing manual work.

As soon as Mrs. Zhou looked up and saw Jiang Yao coming out, she hurriedly greeted: "Xiao Shao, it's up!" Hungry, right? Come here, I've got some food in the pot. ”

Mrs. Zhao, who was helping to light the fire, tugged at the corner of Mrs. Zhou's clothes and whispered: "Mother, the village chief said that he wants to be called Mr. Jiang!" ”

The nearby aunts and daughters-in-law saw Jiang Yao coming over, and they all called "Mr. Jiang." ”

Jiang Yao nodded: "Aunt Zhou." ”

Mrs. Zhou was not very comfortable with Mrs. Zhao's words: "Xiao, Mr. Jiang, I'll get you some hot water to wash up first, and let Xiaoliu bring the rice over in a while, and you can eat in the tent!" ”

"Then thank you Aunt Zhou and sister-in-law! You still call me Xiao Yao! ”

When Jiang Yao washed up, he was eating breakfast with Jiang Yu.

Mr. Feng came out of breath.

"Mr. Jiang, in the morning, the brothers of Qingyunzhai went to the nearby mountains to investigate, and they all recorded it."

As he spoke, he took out the paper and pen that Jiang Yao specially gave him last night.

On that piece of paper was a simple map, the surrounding terrain and, more importantly, the annotations on the map, and a detailed record on the back.

This is all recorded by Mr. Feng according to the brothers who went to investigate.

Mr. Feng smiled embarrassedly: "I have never seen the pen given by Mr., so the writing is not very good." If there is something you don't understand, sir, I'll tell you more. ”

Jiang Yao looked at the mark he made and raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

Not because it's ugly, it's too well written.

The first time I used a signature pen to write, I was just not proficient in the first moment, and the subsequent words were upright.

……

Because there are many seriously injured people in the team, they can't rush immediately, but they can't waste this time to recuperate in vain.

First came the plague that followed.

Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu carefully studied the records in their hands, and there was only one record of this plague:

“…… People with heat and dryness, fever, phlegm and cough; Heavy doctors do not know the changes of time, and then cast half a summer south star, in order to benefit its dryness and heat, so that coughing blood, bone saliva backsurge, vomiting, muscle drying and death, many ...... In every fifty days, more than 900,000 people died from all the gates, and there are not ......many who are poor and cannot be buried."

It was not clear which known infectious disease it was, but they all had suspicions.

But even if they knew, they wouldn't be able to cure it.

So the most important thing is to prevent and leave as soon as possible.

According to the recorded time, the plague broke out three months later.

However, let's not forget that both incubation and transmission take time, especially in ancient times, when communication was not developed.

Therefore, Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu agreed that this time needs to be greatly advanced.

And they believe that the plague is likely caused by the death of too many people.

Suppose that from the beginning of the ground movement in Qingzhou, the number of corpses increased, and it was not dealt with in time, causing a plague.

Then it may only take half a month for the plague to begin to spread.

With the outflow of refugees from Qingzhou, it spread to the northeast of Wu State, encountering the flow of refugees from drought.

Spread further. It will lead to a large-scale outbreak, which will take about two or three months.

Therefore, the epidemic prevention work cannot be delayed.

According to Zhong Da's judgment on those seriously ill patients, they will stay here for at least half a month.

According to Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu's speculation, they can only stay here for half a month at most.

It is necessary to start the rush mode and rush to Anzhou in Chu State as quickly as possible.

……

In fact, at first, they thought that this place was hidden, so it was better to stay again for a while, and wait for the plague to pass before going to Anju.

As long as they don't go out and make contact with people, right?

But Jiang Yao told them that the plague was not contagious only if it came into contact with people.

Many plagues can be transmitted through wild animals, mosquitoes, fleas, and even poultry.

For example, the plague.

In fact, they suspected that the plague here was probably the plague.

In this day and age, there is no cure at all!

Moreover, mosquitoes and fleas can be transmitted.

Mosquitoes are okay, there are basically no mosquitoes this season.

But fleas, she dared to say that there were few people in the entire Linjia Village who did not have fleas on them.

It was the first time that Mr. Feng and the others had heard this kind of statement, and they didn't dare to believe it.

He actively joined the discussion......

So they discussed two of the most important things yesterday.

One is the epidemic prevention work, and the other is the preparation work to be done in half a month.

And this map recorded by Mr. Feng is very important for their next plan!

……

After the meal, Jiang Yao asked Jiang Yu to stay in the camp obediently, and then followed Mr. Feng to the bamboo forest in the west.

There are already people working in the bamboo forest.

Young men are chopping bamboo, and women are digging bamboo shoots with some half-grown children.

This time, everyone came out in a hurry, and many things were too late to be packed, and there were few objects that could hold things.

In addition, there are more injured people, and the board trucks are basically used to tow people, and there is nowhere to put luggage.

It's all carried over by hand, not to mention tired, and when you start to escape in the later stage, it's not appropriate to do this again.

Therefore, we should use this half month to weave more bamboo baskets.

It is best to carry some luggage in different sizes, both adults and children.

It is spread out and carried separately, making it easy to run.

Bamboo shoots can be eaten for a period of time, so naturally they can't be wasted.

If you can't eat it, you can also dry it into dried bamboo shoots, although it is not convenient to soak the dried bamboo shoots for a long time before eating.

But it's durable, and if you really have nothing to eat and you're hungry, it's hard to chew a little longer......

Look at the busy people in the bamboo forest.

Jiang Yao was puzzled: "Why do they only cut thin bamboo?" ”

Mr. Feng: "Sir doesn't know that the finer the bamboo used in bamboo weaving, the more durable the things made, so the bamboo knots are generally selected to be thin and short. ”

Jiang Yao suddenly said: "There is also this exquisiteness." ”

Then he looked at the bamboos with a relatively large diameter, and thought for a while: "Then let people cut some of these thick ones back, and make more bamboo tubes for water, preferably one by one." ”

As soon as Mr. Feng heard it, he understood that this was to prepare for the drought, and hurriedly ordered.

……

The two went around to the back of the cave, which was the main purpose of Mr. Feng to find Jiang Yao.

Because charcoal is being made here!
