Relieved, Feng Shen sped up his movements to treat the villagers, he didn't want to let more people die because he delayed a little effort.

In the next few days, the villagers of the second village were almost cured, they had all taken the medicine, and the symptoms were almost gone, and they were waiting for a natural recovery.

These days, Feng Shencai has been sending Shang Zhi out to find out if there is still a village that has been burned, "Shang Zhi, you go out to see, if someone wants to burn the village, you must come back and inform me as soon as possible, you don't have to deal with them, you can't come forward in this matter." ”

After all, this matter was ordered by Emperor Changming, and if Shang Zhi came forward to stop it, he might be angry, so he could only go by himself.

Fortunately, Shang Zhi probed outside for a few days, and when he came back, he told Feng Shencai that there was no such thing as burning the village, Feng Shencai thought that this matter had been revealed, and thought that Emperor Changming was just hot-headed for a while, so he was barely relieved.

Feng Shencai made Shang Zhi no longer have to guard outside every day, or let him take the time to come back to help boil medicine, handle medicinal herbs, and so on.

But on the second day when Feng Shencai relaxed his vigilance, it was a coincidence that Shang Zhi took the time to go out, but found that someone was pouring oil outside a village, so he hurriedly came back and informed Feng Shencai as soon as possible, "Master, someone is ready to burn the village again, you go and take a look, the fire hasn't been lit yet, those beasts are piling firewood." ”

Fortunately, Feng Shencai arrived in time this time, and when he went, the chief guard was about to light a fire, but was stopped by Feng Shencai, "Stop!" I am the king of Chang'an, and I command you to stop! ”

Feng Shencai turned over and dismounted, then walked up to them and scolded, "What do you want to do? Why do you want to burn the village again and again, am I already treating them? Wouldn't it be cruel for you to kill them like that now! Feng Shencai stood directly in front of the pile of firewood that blocked the entrance of the village.

The entrance to the village has been filled with countless firewood, and it is also poured with oil, as long as the spark is lit, soon the whole village will be reduced to ashes, and the villagers are supporting each other there crying and begging for mercy, not that no one wants to run out, but they are all directly killed by the guards.

The villagers are extremely desperate in their hearts, at this time they are also dead if they run away, and if they don't escape, they are simply heaven and earth, they kneel on the ground and ask for Buddha and Bodhisattva, and finally look forward to the abundance of energy.

Of course, Feng Shencai can't watch this kind of thing happen again, he couldn't prevent the destruction of Niushou Mountain last time, he was already very remorseful, and even in his sleep he was guilty of why he couldn't arrive in time, this time fortunately, he came in time, before the guards lit the fire.

But the guards were also very embarrassed, and the chief of the guard stood up and saluted Feng Shencai, and then said: "King Chang'an, don't embarrass the little ones, this order was issued by the emperor, and we dare not resist the decree." ”

"Yes, these people are already seriously ill, they really can't afford to delay the time, if they don't kill them, they will infect more people at that time, so what can I do? King Chang'an, don't be emotional. "There are also some people in the guards who have a bit of a background in the family, and they are here to fill their qualifications, and they dare to secretly mock Feng Shencai emotionally.

"What sentimentality! What if there were your relatives in this village, I don't believe you could kill your parents and elders with your own hands! I'll tell you to stop, hear me! I will take care of anything, otherwise I will kill you directly without waiting for Your Majesty to do it!" Feng Shencai stood in front of him and did not let it go at all.

The chief of the guard sighed and said helplessly, "Since the king of Chang'an insists on you, and the little ones can't go against you, I will collect the team and go back today to tell the saint, if he insists on burning the village, then please don't stop us anymore, you have mercy on our brothers, we are also a family and a mouth, if we commit the crime of resisting the decree, we are also innocent." Then he took the men with him.

Feng Shencai watched them leave, and then hurriedly comforted the villagers in this village: "Don't worry, everyone, I'll come over after I cure the people from Shangcang Village, don't worry, I won't leave you alone." ”

Those villagers didn't know what to say, so they could only kowtow on the ground and thank him, begging him to come quickly.

It's just that on this day, Feng Shencai, who was treating the villagers, received a secret letter from Emperor Changming, telling him to solve the problem of the spotted plague as soon as possible, otherwise he would continue to slaughter the village, and these untouchables must not be allowed to threaten the capital.

Feng Shencai looked at the secret letter, and the pressure really doubled, he wished that he had grown three heads and six arms, and he could cure all the villagers overnight, Wei Rong also knew the news here, he sent Mo Feng Mo Jiang and other capable subordinates to help.

Soon the patients in this village have also taken medicine, as long as they are resting well and don't go out to run, they should recover soon, so Feng Shenhui hurriedly packed his luggage and prepared to go to the fourth village, these days the poison of the spotted plague is really like a locust crossing the border, infecting one patient after another, and it is no wonder that Emperor Changming panicked and ordered the slaughter of the village.

Shang Zhi really couldn't stand it anymore, he found Imperial Doctor Huang in private and asked him for help: "Imperial Doctor Huang, I beg you to find a way to let my master sleep, he hasn't closed his eyes for several days, if he doesn't eat, he will definitely not work, I'm afraid he will even save the effort to eat, don't you see that he is all gnawing steamed buns, what do you say to eat steamed buns quickly!" ”

Imperial Physician Huang was also very worried about Feng Shencai, he knew that with such a high intensity of work, even if he was beaten with iron, it would definitely be unbearable, but Feng Shencai refused to sleep, and even secretly pricked needles in his Lingchi acupoint to keep himself awake, which was very crazy.

"This king of Chang'an refuses to sleep, let's not knock him unconscious, it's easy to hurt his brain." Imperial Physician Huang was also a little embarrassed, "Besides, I heard that the King of Chang'an is also strong in martial arts, and we can't get it, so I can't drug him." ”

"Huh? How not! Imperial Doctor Huang, do you have a good soothing incense, the kind that can sleep at a little bit, let's light one for the master, let him sleep until dawn, no matter what, it's good to rest all night. Shang Zhi immediately came to his senses.

To put it bluntly, these villagers are indeed pitiful, but here in Shangzhi, their lives are really not as expensive as the master's gold, not to mention that they have the strength and money to contribute these days, so they can't take their lives on the line.
