Chapter 387: Ci is not in charge of the troops
If the three of them hadn't gone around and walked back to this area, I'm afraid that the light clouds wouldn't have been able to stop Huamanxi from going down. Although the matter seemed to be solved without danger, Hua Manxi still raised his vigilance in his heart, and the Zhenguo Mansion, which he thought was absolutely safe, would also have such an omission. It is not difficult to imagine that if the enemy had the intention, I am afraid that it would be the same to drill into other loopholes.
The fact that the enemy does not choose the more important battlefield ahead, but exerts his strength to infiltrate the rear, which shows that he believes that there are interests to be plotted. According to the current form, it can be as short as a few months or as many as a few years, and Xu Jinfei's advantages are obvious. Because of this, Hua Manxi became more and more hesitant.
It was the time of the New Year, and many foreign people also poured into the capital, so it seemed congested a lot, and in this chaotic war, many people could only live at home in order to save their lives, and did not dare to go out. However, after a while, some more remote places reported epidemics. Xu Jinfei is quite big-headed, and he can't stand more toss at the moment.
As for whose hand is playing with the source, or whether it is really unkind, it doesn't matter, because the epidemic has begun to spread, and if it cannot be contained in time, I am afraid that the casualties caused will be incalculable. Even in normal times, the source of soldiers is very precious, not to mention now, it is almost the capital of life.
In order to gain a chance in this struggle or win a good reputation, Nan Jin also had to think about his own survival first, and finally had to be ruthless, temporarily dividing the several areas he occupied, drawing a line of separation, and all the people who crossed the line would be ...... Unforgiving.
With this rule in front, nothing can maintain the apparent tranquility, and the so-called "even if the monarch is on the side, it will not harm the innocent people" has become a ridiculous empty talk. Xu Jinfei was willing to help, but he knew very well in his heart that if he couldn't be willing to spend a lot of medicinal materials, I was afraid it would just be hypocrisy.
But before the war, whoever wastes more resources is tantamount to pushing his own soldiers to death. Shen Shao could only wake up for two or three hours a day, but after hearing about it, he immediately jumped up from the bed to find someone, but unfortunately Xu Jinfei was in the suburbs of the city at the time and couldn't come back in time, so Shen Shao had to leave a note and fainted again.
Wang Shishi took the note and looked at it, the handwriting on it was through the back of the paper, and she was anxious and angry: Ci is not in charge of the army, and love is not in charge. Xu Jinfei finally read the note for a long time, and held it next to the candle for a long time, but it didn't burn it for a long time. Hua Manxi tidied up his clothes for him, wiped his face, and felt that his beard had grown a stubble, but it was too late to shave.
She understands Xu Jinfei's pain, but she is also a little powerless, in fact, no matter what Xu Jinfei chooses, or whether she succeeds or fails in the end, she will support him wholeheartedly. But for the first time, she was so desperate to be able to do something. This plague is complicated, but it is not complicated, but she did not study medicine in her previous life, so she is a little at a loss.
These days, Bai Wuyi has been reading medical books almost frantically, almost taking root in the room, his beard is even more embarrassed than Xu Jinfei, and he is about to soak into an old man. Wuluan is rare to be quiet, not to interfere with him, but what is gratifying is that he reads a book at a glance and ten lines, extremely fast, and he can't forget to say it, but it is okay to help find it and take a look.
Wuluan also looked like he was holding a weapon, Hua Manxi was a little crying and laughing, in his spare time, he came with a bowl of meals, and while the two were eating, they stretched each other into each other's bowls, and the spoons fought, so that they knew what the problem was.
Hua Manxi was not very accustomed to the way of ancient texts being erected and verticalized, and she read it more slowly than Bai Wuyuan, but she read it very carefully, and asked if she didn't understand, which inspired Bai Wuyuan to have some new ideas. He was still holding a book and a cloth towel on his head, and he rushed out. When I come back, I often bring a dripping medicinal juice and a dejected look.
Hua Manxi sighed and patted him on the shoulder wordlessly. After a few days like this, the disaster was temporarily controlled within a range, and the fastest way was naturally to eradicate them all, Xu Jinfei had been waiting for Bai Wuyuan's news, so he didn't have a ruthless heart for the time being. In addition to Bai Wuyi, there are naturally many doctors and medicine halls in the city, but they are either collected by Nan Jinwei or drowned in the victims, and there are almost no survivors.
The people in the remaining pharmacies were all taken in by Xu Jinfei and stayed in the rear, concentrating on finding drugs that could suppress the epidemic. After a few more days, a doctor named Geely had an idea, and I have to say that his name is not a loss. He held the medical book in his hand and said eloquently: "Looking at the ancient prescriptions for the rest of the time, there was a similar case in this epidemic a long time ago, and only by looking for Bupleurum and mixing it with many medicines can there be hope for a cure." Bupleurum is rare, only in the Ouchi Palace, when there is inventory. ”
Hua Manxi's eyebrows jumped, and Xu Jinfei also began to think solemnly. Since the beginning of the war, from the withering of flowers to the absence of luan, so that Shen Shao and Chen Xiuli have all admonished him, and he has indeed put the palace in the last place to be breached. To ascend to the throne, it is natural to need to be justified, but if you can't convince Nan Jinwei, why talk about ascending to the throne? But now that the lives of the people are at stake, and they can't take care of so much, Xu Jinfei ordered to send a secret team to explore the details of the palace first.
There is no shortage of talented people under him, and he has formed a team of about thirty people, acting as a vanguard, figuring out the situation first, and the number of people should be able to support each other a little. If it is still the same as before, there is no trace and no one is seen, Xu Jinfei is afraid that he will have to make the final consideration. Chai Hu has a peculiar appearance, for fear of some omission, and he has to bring auspicious and white kites. As soon as Bai Wuyuan goes, Wuluan will of course have to accompany him.
Xu Jinfei hesitated, there is still a lack of a person who is familiar with the terrain of the palace, at least, he must be familiar with places such as the treasury and the Tai Hospital. At this moment, a hand stretched out and pressed it on the map, Hua Manxi smiled slightly: "Why hesitate, I'll go." Xu Jinfei was taken aback, and Hua Manxi said: "I have been in and out of the palace many times before, and I have also been to the Tai Hospital several times for Qingluo. Qingluo has a good memory, the map she drew is more detailed, and I can understand better, I don't want to stay behind you, just let me do a little bit for you. Don't worry, I will be 'greedy for life and afraid of death' and take good care of myself." ”
Xu Jinfei's little finger trembled slightly, and for a while, he felt a little fluttering. When it comes to death, he himself is not afraid of anything. But when he wanted to let Hua Manxi go, he felt distracted, as if he was trembling, and he didn't want to delve into it, whether it was unknown information or his own boring worries. In the end, he didn't say anything, just hugged Hua Manxi very lightly and said, "Wait another day, I'll send a team of people to explore first." ”
I don't know if it was because of his words, or because of the luck of Hua Manxi, although it was cold on the second day, it was a rare sunny day, and the fog outside the palace also blew away a lot, and it didn't look so terrifying. Hua Manxi wore self-defense objects such as heart goggles and gold silk soft armor, Xu Jinfei hugged her, and he really wanted to put on three or four more layers, or simply shred his flesh and bones into a wide coat to cover Hua Manxi.
Thinking about it, under such a major event, if he wants to have a long relationship with his children, he will not be Xu Jinfei. Xu Jinfei hugged Hua Manxi hard again before slowly letting go. Hua Manxi and everyone walked together, but in an hour, they came to an entrance to the palace gate. The palace covers a vast area, in fact, it is really similar to a small city, there are four official entrances alone, not to mention some side roads, because this place is vast, and it is necessary to separate at that time, so you have to bring Hua Manxi and another guide.
As soon as he entered the gate, Hua Manxi felt that the sky was much darker, as if this thick layer of fog had covered the entire palace with a huge lid, and the sunlight immediately passed through a veil and turned into a hazy thing. She took out the roll of the map, compared it with the tall door sign, and then pointed to the distance with her finger, and detoured around a line: "This used to be the Imperial Beast Garden, I don't know if there is anyone who cares about it, go around it first, and then go through this alley, I remember that there is a ......"
After walking for half an hour, everyone looked at the skylight, it was still very bleak, and it was not easy to tell what time it was, but fortunately, most of the people were deaf and clear-sighted masters, and they probably knew it in their hearts. After walking for a while, Hua Manxi became strange, if her memory was not wrong, then the quickest way was to turn right and go straight, but now there is a high wall here, cold and ruthless, as if it was already there when the world was opened.
Hua Manxi touched the bluestone wall, feeling a little incredible, couldn't help frowning, just about to touch it again, but felt that the touch of the fingertips had changed, as if it was a little sticky, anyway, it felt very uncomfortable. Before she could react, there was a strong force behind her, and Wuluan pulled her collar and pulled her back several feet. Hua Manxi was still surprised, and she saw a long trail suddenly dragging out of the ground, bright red as blood, and that wall, she thought...... It seems to be melting.
There was no need to say more, everyone immediately looked solemn, put on guard, and retreated to a safe back road. Since then, they have been doubly careful, but have lost a few brothers. Wuluan is a person who can throw his concubine to the snake to feed, so he naturally doesn't care about this, he doesn't frown, he only gestures quickly and orders his subordinates to evacuate. As he expected, the whole terrain began to become unfamiliar, as if against the map he had brought, ready to completely reverse the number.
To be honest, the architecture of the Imperial City is very exquisite, even if it is upside down, it is actually the same, but the current terrain is like stepping into a mirror.
