Chapter Seventy-Three: The Fire
Mo looked at An Shuangchi softly, then at Zhang Liangyu, and nodded: "That's fine." ”
An Shuangchi heard that Mo Qingrou actually agreed to Zhang Liangyu to go in with her, and began to eat inexplicable vinegar again.
In this way, under An Shuangchi's resentful gaze, a group of ten of them entered the village again with veils.
Mo gently ordered people to set realgar and cangmu on fire so that they could be sterilized, and then she had people mix purslane, artemisia annua and Changshan together and boil them in clean water, and then serve a bowl to each people.
Those people looked at this medicine and asked Mo softly with suspicion: "Girl, can this medicine cure us?" Don't you want to poison us, do you? ”
Mo shook his head softly and said to them with a smile, "How could it be? We were sent by General An Shuang Chi An to heal you. ”
It's no wonder that the people don't believe Mo Qingrou, firstly because she is not from their place, and secondly, because they have already drunk a lot of medicine and no longer believe in the effect of this medicine.
"Girl, it's not that we don't believe you, it's just that the medicine we drank before was too much, and it didn't work......." A woman sighed sadly.
The middle-aged man before interrupted the woman's words, "Aunt Zhao, we have eaten so many medicines, this bowl is not bad, I think this girl is a good person, she will not harm us, not to mention that if she really harms us, why do you have to come here to cook medicine herself?" ”
After speaking, the middle-aged man drank the bowl of medicine in front of everyone.
Others may think that the middle-aged man is reasonable, or they may think that it is a death anyway, so they just drink it!
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you feel anything uncomfortable, tell me as soon as possible, and please don't drink the water in the river anymore, the water in the river is polluted and not clean, if you want to drink water, come to me to drink clean water, this is the fresh spring water that General An specially ordered people to go to the mountains to fetch, please drink it with confidence."
Zhang Liangyu looked at Mo Qingrou, and had to admire her foresight, when she found that the water in the river was polluted, she ordered someone to go to the mountains to find spring water, it turned out to be for this.
"Miss Mo, I found a dead citizen over there." A small soldier came back to report.
Mo Qingrou hurriedly followed the little soldier over to check, and found that an old woman was lying on the dead common man and weeping bitterly!
"Erniu's father! Why did you just leave? Why do you call us two to live? ”
In order to prevent others from contracting the plague again, Mo Qingrou ordered someone to carry the old woman's husband away, but who knew that the old woman would not let them carry him away.
"What are you going to do? Where do you want to carry my second cow father? ”
"Old woman, we are going to carry the body of your father-in-law and burn it, so that there will be no more plague."
"What? You bad people, one day today when my wife is here, you don't want to carry the second cow father away. ”
As he spoke, he cried again: "Father Erniu, have you seen it?" They will burn you before you leave, they are all bad people, they are all bad people. ”
"Old woman, it's not what you think, it's really that the plague in this village is too serious, if you don't burn the dead body in time, it will infect more people, can you bear to watch everyone die in the whole world?" Mo gently and bitterly persuaded the old woman.
"Girl, can you bury the second cow father?" Another woman spoke well for the old woman.
Mo shook his head softly and said undoubtedly: "Auntie, the plague here is too serious now, and we have no choice but to make this decision." ”
The old woman was still crying and making trouble, and Mo gently gave the two soldiers next to her a look and asked them to take the old woman away.
"Erniu Dad, Erniu Daddy ......."
The people on the side didn't feel good when they saw it, but they couldn't do anything but watch Er Niu's father being carried away.
According to Mo Qing's instructions, they carried the second cow father to the suburban open space that Mo Qingrou asked him to find, and in the open space, she ordered someone to find a lot of wood to build a wooden bed, and after putting the second cow father on it, Zhang Liangyu lit the fire.
Seeing the corpses being burned little by little, Mo gently ordered everyone to cover their mouths so as not to be infected.
When they returned to the village, the old woman fainted several times due to exhaustion.
Seeing that the realgar and cangmu burned out, Mo gently let people ignite some realgar and cangmu.
"General Gentle asked me to tell you that the bodies of those dead villagers have been disposed of."
Mo nodded softly, looked at the people and said: "Everyone must not resist burning the corpses, because only in this way will the plague be solved quickly, otherwise those corpses will decompose the plague, and at that time, I am afraid that this Lingwu Dynasty will be in chaos all over the world, so for the sake of your body, for your children, you must actively cooperate with us, and you must not interfere with us again, you know?" ”
In the next few days, Mo gently collected and boiled the medicine for them, and told them not to touch the water, and not to tears, and after a few more days, finally someone got better.
The man was the middle-aged man on the first day, and he said that since then he no longer coughed, he was not uncomfortable, but after drinking the medicine, he felt very good, and his body was not as clumsy as when he was sick before, anyway, he now felt as light as a swallow.
Saying that, the middle-aged man also gave them a 'Dapeng wings'.
Mo Qingrou was amused by the middle-aged man, and the condition of the other people also improved, but their bodies were not as light as the middle-aged man.
For two more days in a row, Mo gently asked people to put the last medicinal herbs into the pot, which was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Basically, the mild ones in the village had recovered, and as for those who were serious, she had to keep them here, while the others were transferred to the shelter they had prepared.
"General An, you are our reborn parents, and our eldest brother is unforgettable."
With that, a room of people knelt down with them.
"Please get up, please get up, if there is anything to talk about later, we will mainly settle you now." An Shuangchi picked up the people and let the soldiers take them to the camp.
After Mo gently fed the last bowl of medicine to the seriously ill people in the village, she ordered people to sprinkle grapefruit water on everyone's homes so that they could be disinfected.
An Shuangchi walked around outside the village, looking forward to it from time to time, but she didn't find the slightest shadow of Mo Qingrou.
As she had ordered, they had repaired the dam, the water in the river had been cleaned, and now everyone was waiting for them at the door.
Finally, when An Shuang left late, I don't know how many laps it was, Zhang Liangyu and Mo Qingrou's figures appeared in everyone's eyes.
An Shuangchi stepped forward excitedly to greet her, "Gentle, you're finally out." ”
After Mo gently unloaded the armament on his body, he looked around and took a deep breath: "The air outside is still good and fresh!" ”
An Shuangchi took her into his arms, God knows how much he missed her for so long.
If it weren't for the fear of upsetting her, he would have been able to accompany her.
"General, there are a few patients in the back, you can send someone in and carry them out!"
An Shuangchi gestured to the soldiers behind, and the soldiers walked into the village with a few other soldiers.
Now that the plague has been cured, it is now time to set fire the cangmu and realgar in the village to disinfect it.
The county magistrate looked at Mo Qingrou gratefully, and thanked her sincerely: "Miss Mo, thanks to you this time, otherwise I don't know how many people would die here!" ”
What the county order said is not false, if it weren't for Mo Qingrou, then there would be a plague outbreak here, and no one would be able to escape.
"The county magistrate is polite, I just did some gestures."
"Miss Mo, don't be modest, you are our great benefactor, please accept our worship." The middle-aged man led by Mo knelt down gently, and the people behind him also knelt down.
Mo Qingrou was still the first time to receive this kind of gift, and she didn't know what to do, she turned her head to look at An Shuangchi, and An Shuangchi nodded at her.
Mo gently picked up the middle-aged man at the head and told them that they didn't have to be so polite.
As for the five doctors in the village, seeing that Mo Qingrou really had a way to cure the plague, they who had laughed at Mo Qingrou before, but now they were all silent.
Mo saw it gently, and did not dismantle them, but walked straight to the crowd.
Mo gently walked up to the old woman who had killed her husband and said apologetically: "Old woman, I know that it is a great disrespect to the ancestors to be burned after death, but you have to forgive me, I really have to force it, and I hope you will live a good life in the future." ”
Mo gently put his purse into the old woman's hand, the old woman was moved to tears, and nodded: "Girl, it's my fault, I shouldn't stop you, you are a good person, I shouldn't not believe you, Erniu's father died like that, it can be regarded as a good thing for our village!" ”
"It's good that you understand, old woman." Mo gently shook the old woman's hand with relief.
"Now that the plague here has been resolved, I think it's time for us to hit the road." An Shuangchi said softly to Mo.
Mo nodded softly and turned around to leave, but was grabbed by someone's hand, and she looked down suspiciously to find that it was a little girl with a windmill in her hand.
"Sister, give you this windmill, my mother said that the windmill will bring good luck to people, and I hope this windmill will also bring you good luck."
Mo gently squatted down, touched the little girl's white and tender face and nodded: "Okay, sister, thank you for your kindness." ”
Under the eyes of everyone, An Shuangchi and Mo gently left this Yong'an County.
After a few days and nights of sleeplessness, Mo Qingrou was already tired, so as soon as she got into the carriage, she couldn't resist the drowsiness and fell asleep.
