Red Cloud Chapter 19 Plague Cult

Zhaotun Village, which is the marginal area of Emerald Town, has difficult conditions, the shelter that the World Tree can give is limited, low grass thatched huts, foul-smelling ditches, and many white cloth strips and banners in front of the doors, the epidemic has broken out, looking at the number of white cloths from afar, the situation is very unoptimistic.

Several people wearing yellow isolation gowns are observing the situation in the home of an infected person, in the dim room, a thin and dirty old lady curled up in the corner of the wall, she is wearing a blue and white plaid isolation hospital gown, her eyes are gray and numb, she is staring at a young man lying not far away, the man has been worn away by the epidemic for most of his life, thin and inhuman, several medical personnel in isolation gowns are making a final effort to bleed him, the man's thin thighs are covered with blackened bleeding spots, The blood that slipped out was black, and it couldn't be stopped at all, the usual bloodletting therapy in previous years seemed to be very inapplicable to this strange epidemic, many patients often died of shock caused by massive hemorrhage, in this regard, the plague doctors were also helpless, the treatment drugs, the understanding of the epidemic, and even the transmission channels were ignorant, suddenly, the sick man convulsed violently, and spit out blood from his mouth, and several plague doctors immediately ran away.

In one morning, Liu Yuexi had already seen several scenes like this, and he was shocked that life was so fragile. After a while, the man died, the body was hastily put into a body bag for follow-up, the whole room was filled with a large amount of grass and wood ashes, and the old lady in the corner was carried out, she didn't say anything, didn't cooperate or resist, just like a living dry corpse, just now, her last relative, her little son died. And such tragedies happen every day.

Walking out of the quarantine area and changing into isolation clothes, Yuexi and two other companions came to the tent of the temporary epidemic command post, "Thank you very much for your generosity, Mr. Liu Yuexi, the fuel you sent, as well as gorse seeds and alder trees, are exactly what we urgently need, Judge Yu is really right, you are indeed an honest person in your bones." ”

The woman who spoke was the female pastor of the Holy Light Church, and standing next to him was her husband, the only pioneer healer in the Ten Towns area, Zhang Zihe, this is a very legendary figure, the pioneer is a popular profession, and usually goes to the big city to develop, but this one goes the opposite way, takes root in the countryside, and specializes in treating the diseases of ordinary people, especially the homeless and untouchables, and the reputation of the two couples in the entire Ten Towns is very high.

"It's useless, it's just that the corpses can be disposed of better, and the epidemic can be controlled more effectively in these circles, and when the death is almost over, the epidemic will naturally end, and the rainy season will continue next year." Zhang Zihe's words are very discouraging, it may be that years of rural prevention and control work have disappointed him to the extreme.

"What are you talking about, the supplies that Mr. Liu brought are completely personal, you don't know how expensive fuel is, don't say a few words, I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, my husband may have been too busy recently, a little." The priestess rounded up.

Yuexi was not angry, Judge Yu specially greeted him before he came, and even a hardwood like Lao Yu had to remind him that this son and brother's temper was so bad that Yuexi was prepared, and he didn't say much, and went straight to the point, "In front of the two experts, I don't dare to show off, but judging from the situation just now, the symptoms of the attack are neither like the plague flu, nor are they different from fever, especially the symptoms of spurting blood, which is too bizarre, and I personally think it should be a new variety of infectious disease." ”

For Liu Yuexi's extraordinary insight, the couple were very surprised, they thought they were just a kind and benevolent person, but they didn't expect to know so much, "Is Mr. Liu a doctor?" The pastor asked.

Yuexi waved her hand, "You misunderstood, no, it's just a family heirloom business is to open a small trading house to make some living money, just the general medical immunization consumables are the main business items, the displaced people are living in poverty, almost every year they have to suffer from the epidemic brought by the rainy season, I am also from a bitter background, I have a deep experience." ”

Zhang Zihe's eyes lit up, and he said: "What you said is very insightful, blood spurting symptoms are rare, and I suspect that the way this epidemic spreads is blood vectors." We know so little at the moment, and we don't know anything except that the Awakened are not very susceptible to infection, which is really ashamed. ”

Yuexi asked: "I can help send the sample to Wangjing for further laboratory analysis, the druid taught me that I also have acquaintances, to see if I can get more alder and gorse, at the moment isolation and disinfection is a big deal, and the situation cannot continue to spread." If you can, I hope you can go to the provincial capital with me, in the end, you still need support from above, and you can explain the situation more professionally. ”

"That's great, that's great, thank you, I'm going to prepare. Soon. Before he finished speaking, Zhang Zihe had already run out.

Yuexi looked at the female pastor, "Your husband is indeed an interesting person. ”

The female pastor also shook her head, and said to Yuexi with a smile: "Mr. Liu can call me by my name, Zeng Yi, I am a little embarrassed that you are always like this." ”

Yuexi also smiled, "My name is Liu Yuexi, and my acquaintances call me Yuexi, and you can, no, Pastor Zeng can also call me that." I'm a direct person, you're also very busy, I don't go around the bush, I come to help for my own reasons, not without selfishness, you may know, I have a new enclave in the dark world, I need a large number of reclamation personnel, the most ideal channel is these homeless untouchables, this year's outbreak of infectious diseases has seriously affected my recruitment, can you tell me, how far the epidemic has spread, how serious the situation is. ”

Pastor Zeng looked at Yuexi and smiled: "Mr. Yuexi is very straightforward, but this is very good, according to what we know now, the same infectious disease has broken out in five villages, including Zhangtun Village, this time, which shows that the virus is very contagious." But this time it was a bit strange, there were no reports of outbreaks even near the most remote town of Momiji, you must know that the conditions there were the worst. The past few years have shown us that other remote villages and towns are very likely to keep their stories hidden, and if this is the case, it is difficult to say what will happen if the plague is allowed to spread. Mr. Yuexi just mentioned that he can contact the provincial capital, hoping that the spread of infectious diseases can not be delayed as soon as possible, and this time the situation is different from previous years. ”

"Is there a possibility that it is artificial." Yuexi said a conjecture of her own, and told Zeng Yi about the pollution of the water source she saw when she went to the enclave.

Zeng Yi frowned after hearing this, "When you say this, I think of a thing, there seems to be a Chaos Shinrito Sect that has popped up over there recently, and it is expanding rapidly, and it seems that there is no large-scale epidemic situation in the villages and regions that have entered their sect. I don't know if it's true or not. ”

"Chaos Shinrikyo Sect, it's a bit interesting, okay, I'll go check it out, and when I'm ready, I'll go to Wangjing with you, and I'll inform you as soon as possible." All right. Yuexi faintly felt that there was something strange in it, and she didn't want to stay longer, so she quit Zeng Yi and hurried back, there were a lot of troubles on his side.

When I returned home, it was already afternoon, and the house was a little deserted, so I asked the next person, only to know that my mother went out to make incense, and Ziyue didn't know if it was for the things in the shop or Ziling's business, so she went out with the monkey and didn't come back until now. The knife is still practicing in the gravity room, and Applejack and the one who called Lin Wanqiu went out romantically. None of them were worried, Yuexi sat weakly on the Taishi chair, and she didn't know where to go with a bad breath.

As soon as he drank some tea, he ran in in a hurry, and Yuexi was about to look for him and asked, "How is the matter going?" ”

Luozi took a sip of tea first, and said: "Brother Yue, it's all checked, it's very troublesome, there's really no news about Ba Ye, this old boy has been very peaceful recently, he hasn't gambled, and of course he has no money to gamble, he quit his job in the lumber mill, and the rented house has also been surrendered." Neighbors also said that he seemed to have found some new job in Harbour City. It doesn't look like a fake. ”

Yuexi rubbed her temples, feeling very annoyed, is this thing running at the right time, is it impossible, and asked: "Then what about him today, is there anything abnormal in the past two days?" ”

"Oh, he went out with Ziling."

"Didn't I let you watch, what if I ran away, Ziyue didn't strangle me yet." When I heard Yuexi, my scalp was numb.

"Brother, didn't you say staring? I've sent a few of my men to keep an eye on it. "The slipper was confused.

"Oh my God, this one by one, let your people invite the two of them back, at least follow me, don't make any more trouble for me, brother."

"Okay, I'll go, oh, brother, a manager who claims to be Wangjing Commercial Bank Hongtai is looking for you."

"Hongtai, I haven't been in contact with it, it won't be that I want to cooperate, you just need to receive it." Yuexi was annoyed in her heart, how could she be in such a mood.

"Brother, I guess it's not good, and Zhang Ciyu, the young master of the Zhang family, also came with him."

"Oh, that's right, where are the people?"

"An old shop on the street."

"Okay, you can get busy, I'll meet them." After Yuexi finished speaking, she set off and prepared to go out.

As he walked to the gate, the family's carriage happened to come back, and the monkey helped Ziyue get out of the car, it seemed that he had just returned, "Where have you two been?" Came back so late. Yuexi was very displeased and asked coldly.

The monkey said, "Oh, Brother Yue, my sister-in-law and I will go to Principal Li to see if she can help inquire about Ziling." ”

Yuexi didn't even look at the monkey, staring at Ziyue: "I didn't ask you." ”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ziyue explained: "Yuexi, you misunderstood, the monkey happens to know Principal Li, and Principal Li and Director Wang of the Provincial School Administration know each other, so I wonder if I can inquire about Ziling." ”

At this time, the more he explained, the more annoyed he became, and Yuexi said bluntly: "I misunderstood something, didn't I say that I would solve it, what, I can't figure it out or what's going on." ”

"That's not what I meant, Yuexi." Ziyue was about to cry out in a hurry.

"Then let me in, don't embarrass me outside." I hated this, and Ziyue ran in with tears in her eyes. There were monkeys and Yuexi left at the door, Yuexi faintly regretted it in her heart, but it was a pity that the damn face was troublesome, he didn't hold back the inexplicable evil fire in his heart after all, and said ruthless words to the monkey: "The family has been messy enough recently, don't block me, your own body is also a mess, at this time, let me stay at home to recuperate, don't come out to make a mess, no, I think my reputation is not bad enough." ”

The monkey looked at Yuexi, didn't say anything, and left silently, Yuexi got into the carriage, closed the door, and asked the coachman to send him to Yizi Street, in the carriage, he was a little annoyed, what happened when he came back this time, why did things not go so well.
