Chapter 264: The Outbreak of the Plague

Su Xiaoting took the initiative to ask for help here, and in Ji Yuning's study, a group of people also gathered at this moment, listening to Manager Wang's report:

“…… It has only been two days since someone became ill on the evening of the first day, and about 1/10 of the people in the province have developed symptoms. Fortunately, the clerks of the confidential department have not yet developed any symptoms.

From today onwards, all people entering and leaving the City Lord's Mansion will need to present the token issued by you, and those who leave the Mansion must also be sanitized. ”

Dean Mao of Muling First Hospital said: "This disease doesn't look like a common cold, and the internal medicine doctor and I tried gastrointestinal and cold medicines for the patient, but it didn't seem to work!" ”

Ji Yuning's ink eyebrows frowned slightly like a distant mountain, which made everyone who saw it have an urge to soothe it.

"What happens if I can't find the right medicine?"

Dean Mao looked around at the people around him: "It's hard to say...... the first patient who became ill is now a little dehydrated. Although I didn't have a fever yet, if I continued like this, I had difficulty eating and diarrhea didn't stop ......"

Dean Mao didn't say any more, just shook his head weakly, their hospital even managed to provide nutrient solutions.

Ji Yuning got up and said, "The top priority now is to cut off the source of infection. Chief Wang, Chief Guard, the epidemic prevention in the palace will be handed over to you! Curry also has a batch of spare medical masks, let's distribute them to those who are in close contact~

From tomorrow, all the people in the mansion are not allowed to go out and return home without reason, Dean Mao, you also stay in the City Lord's Mansion, you need to preside over the overall situation here! ”

Several people responded one after another and discussed the details of prevention and control with each other.

I only heard not far away, and suddenly a shocked voice sounded: "Ah~ No!" ”

Everyone turned their heads for some reason, only to see Ji Yingxue's usually sweet expression turned into fear and worry.

Ji Yuning asked with concern, "Ying Xue? What's wrong! ”

Ji Yingxue wanted to speak and stopped, but her eyebrows were more worried, "I, I just remembered a disease recorded in the book......"

Dean Mao preemptively said, "What disease?" Right! Miss Sakurayuki has been studying the medical collection of the house all year round, and she must have seen a lot of information. ”

"This disease, this disease...... Ji Yingxue bit her lower lip before she said as if she had made up her mind: "It seems to be a bit similar to the 'wind sickle' that broke out in Boundless decades ago recorded in the book!" ”

"Wind Scythe?" Dean Mao muttered to himself, his face turned pale, "Miss Yingxue, is that book still there?" Can you lend it to me? ”

"Well, it's in the library, I'm going to look for it now!"

A group of people almost all looked grim, including Ji Yuning, of course.

After reading the medical notes found by Ji Yingxue, the similar initial symptoms were tantamount to giving everyone a slap in the face, as if they were suddenly sitting on the crater, and for a while, the room fell into a dead silence where the needles could be heard.

It is recorded in that notebook: 28 years ago, the [Wind Sickle] started from Vladivostok and quickly spread to the three cities of the Eastern Regions such as Antu and Muling.

Everywhere I passed, about 1/4 of the population was infected, and the course of the disease began with symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and dizziness, but after a week or so, dark red marks began to appear on the patient's body, and then gradually festered.

In as little as 2 weeks, the body will die due to lack of nutrients, and the sick person has almost no chance of survival.

Because it spread quickly and harvested countless living beings like a sickle, it was called 'Wind Scythe' by the people of the time!

……

It's just that the book clearly says that the source of the epidemic at that time came from the 'excellent girl'!

However, those present here do not seem to be surprised in the slightest, especially for those who frequent the United States.

Because this is not only the consensus of the boundless land, but even the United States has given a reasonable explanation.

After the Dark Age, as the Death of the Earth severed the connection between the Boundless Lands and the United States, it returned to the path of natural selection, and people not only had to fight against nature, but also relied entirely on their own immune systems to fight diseases.

And the people of the United States, although cowering in the dungeons, are still barely enjoying the protection of future medical achievements.

In this way, with the passage of time, the people of the United States, who fought against various viruses, not only invented super antibiotics, but also gradually developed a response mechanism to super viruses for each individual.

Combined with super antibiotics, humans are finally a few steps ahead of the virus.

However, the viruses that are constantly mutating and escalating are tantamount to the deadly viruses that were brought to the Americas by the Spaniards centuries ago, and have become the harvester of life.

Although there are only 3 or 4 species of this differentiated virus known so far, it is synonymous with death for this land.

Even with symptomatic antibiotics, the cure rate is only 1/2. Ji Yuning himself has a deep understanding.

Therefore, the people of the United States, whose eyes are above the top, do not realize that they are no longer just unwelcome street rats in the minds of the people here, but are comparable to the beasts of the flood.

Those who go to the United States alone are either strong and able, or they have taken some antibiotics beforehand, and if they are not necessary, they must stay away from the crowd.

If Su Xiaoting knew the reason, she might suddenly realize why she had to soak in alcohol before the Jimei Exhibition.

In fact, when they crossed the boundless death, they had done the disinfection, but for the sake of the local taboo, the glass kiss naturally had to make a show, and also eliminated the buyer's concerns.

A voice broke the silence and said, "Could it be that someone in the City Lord's Mansion has been in contact with the people of the United States?" ”

The head of the guard looked at Han Li, bowed down and said, "City Lord, I haven't noticed anyone from the United States appearing in Mu Ling recently. ”

Ah Tao said on the side: "When our people come back from there, they will be specially sanitized at the Yazhiyan, and when they enter the mansion, they will do it again." ”

Ji Yuning waved his hand, "Okay, the matter has come to this, prepare for the worst first." ”

He turned to Uncle Fist, "Uncle Fist, you have to come forward for the epidemic prevention outside, inform those civilian personnel to quarantine at home, and I will allocate a batch of quarantine materials and funds to you." ”

Then a few things were arranged, and after it was agreed that they would discuss it again the next afternoon, everyone left.

Ji Yingxue stayed at the end and said empathetically: "Brother, you don't have to worry too much, this book records a few doses of decoction for prevention, and I will cook it and distribute it to everyone tomorrow!" ”

"Sakura Xue ~ You are not in good health, just let the maid do these things!"

"I'm not tired, and tomorrow I'm going to set up an altar in the house and pray to the goddess Sephone that she will bless the plague this time."

Ji Yuning was a little relieved and touched the top of Ji Yingxue's hair.

It wasn't until he was the only one left in the room that Ji Yuning looked at the woods behind the city.

"Is it really the Wind Scythe, why is it after the departure of the new star of the United States......

Since hearing Su Xiaoting call each other's names that day, Ji Yuning remembered that this young holy master who had fought with him was also said to be the youngest and most promising major general in the United States - Shangguan Haozhe.

His eyes appeared again, and when he knew that his sting was healed, Su Xiaoting was undisguised with joy and concern.

He shook his head, unwilling to think further. Even if Shangguan Haozhe came to find An Ting, it doesn't mean that this matter must be related to them!

The next day, in addition to adding two sprays and disinfection in the corridor, Su Xiaoting experienced the life of a housemaid for another day, and she had turned over the upgraded books.

In the evening, Su Xiaoting called her again, but no one answered the phone when it rang several times, and after thinking about it, she dialed Ah Tao again, but still no one answered.
