Du Yuexiao looked at Zhu Hongyu's eyes of faith and let out a long sigh, he felt for the first time that he was so close to the former red demon.

Even if he has fled to Ganzhou now, and a little further east, it is the end of the whole world, but this red demon is still with him.

All of a sudden, Du Yuexiao collapsed, and the memories that were sealed more than ten years ago have now become a black hole, sucking all his current sense of security into the black hole, leaving Du Yuexiao with only fear.

Zhu Hongyu looked at Du Yuexiao's mental state, and suddenly collapsed, really distressed.

"Boss Du, although I have no way to treat it, but now that this disease has just spread, we have the time and the opportunity to win this war, by the way, I still have to repair the book to Jin Yuanjing, so that he can inoculate the people of Bianjing in the name of Chaoyunguan."

Du Yuexiao sighed and shook his head.

"No, not now, absolutely not now, let me be quiet, let me be quiet."

As he spoke, Du Yuexiao sat down, and his spirit collapsed suddenly.

Zhu Hongyu was also anxious when she saw Du Yuexiao's appearance.

"Du Yuexiao, why don't you give me a word?"

Du Yuexiao looked at Zhu Hongyu with innocent eyes, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

"Hongyu, do you know that when I first came to the Central Plains, I escaped at that time, thinking that I had left the pursuit of the red demon, so I was lucky to think that I would live in comfort for the rest of my life, at least this demon would not appear. But now I've finally come to realize that there is no such thing as security. ”

As he spoke, Du Yuexiao's eyes moistened.

Zhu Hongyu sighed, thinking that no matter what time it was, whether it was a man or a woman, there was such a weak soft place in her heart.

Du Yuexiao did business to help the world and save people, but the softest place that could not be touched was a large-scale plague.

That plague took away Du Yuexiao's favorite person, his relatives.

Zhu Hongyu knows that it is extremely traumatic for a child to see his relatives leave when he is a child.

For Du Yuexiao, staying away from his homeland and coming to a place where he is unfamiliar with life, and coming to a place where he doesn't even understand the language, it is really a tenth-level loneliness.

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that the red demon would still make a comeback in a place full of caves and blessed land, in fact, I should have known a few years ago that this is not a place of wealth and prosperity, but a hotbed of disease."

"Boss Du, although there are many plagues here, but the medicine is not complete in Zhangshu, Zhangshu County is now in our Ganzhou, how can you say that this is not a blessed place, rather than feeling sorry for yourself here, saying that this is not a good place, it is better to cheer up."

Du Yuexiao looked at Zhu Hongyu and said very sadly, "How can you cheer me up now, what should I do now?"

"What to do, smallpox, like all plagues and all diseases, it's just an ordinary virus, it's not good if you think too much, it's good if you don't think too much."

Zhu Hongyu said, smiled at Du Yuexiao, and then stretched out a hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to find the antidote." ”

"Is it really preventable and incurable?"

The third time, Du Yuexiao asked her own question, it is true that Zhu Hongyu knew how troublesome this question was, and she also knew that this question was very important to Du Yuexiao, but the problem had reached the point where it could not be delayed.

"I know that you asked such a thing on behalf of the people who are about to fall ill in Ganzhou, and I can tell you today that this disease is preventable and incurable, whether you believe it or not, this is exactly the case."

Zhu Hongyu never said death when she spoke before, she knew very well that if a person said that he was dead, he would be very passive and slap his face.

"Okay, then let's go to the county magistrate together"

Zhu Hongyu nodded, with a slight smile on her face, but this smile was not happy but relaxed.

She hopes to have someone who can believe in herself, but it is too difficult for a woman to be recognized in this era, but Du Yuexiao does not hesitate to trust her.

It really reassured her.

Du Yuexiao and Zhu Hongyu walked out of the door, obviously Du Yuexiao's spirit was not very good, which was in stark contrast to Zhu Hongyu.

Zhu Hongyu's smile was so gentle, she took Du Yuexiao to the county office.

After entering the gate of the county office, the county master also happened to be in the county office to deal with the official documents, and when he saw someone coming in, he hurriedly collected the official documents in his hand, and watched the two people sit upright.

Zhu Hongyu looked at the people in the hall without fear.

To Zhu Hongyu's surprise, the county magistrate of Yunmeng Town has changed again, and he seems to be the champion of the new department at a young age, and it is also possible that he has been editing the Hanlin Academy in the capital for several years, and now he is assigned to this place.

The two of them saw the county magistrate and knelt down to salute.

"Du Yuexiao, a grass man, has seen the county master."

"The courtier, Zhu Hongyu, has seen the county master."

Only then did Zhu Hongyu realize that there was already a gap between herself and Du Yuexiao, and this gap was huge, and this gap seemed to be worlds apart in this era.

As an official, of course he knew the origin of the vermilion jade kneeling in the hall, and of course he knew the identity of Du Yuexiao.

He can't offend them.

"Stand up, please."

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Hongyu and Du Yuexiao got up from the ground, and the servant next to them moved the bench in front of the two of them.

Zhu Hongyu and Du Yuexiao sat on it, and the county lord asked kindly, "You two are here, what do you need to tell you?"

"My lord, the grass people's pharmacy is open today, and suddenly a person crawled in at the door, and this person didn't say exactly who his name was and where he lived, but just crawled into the grass people's house, and then died in the lobby. The grass people were deeply disturbed, and they couldn't be sure about his illness, so they asked the guy to find Miss Zhu from Peach Blossom Village. Miss Zhu is a well-known doctor, and she was also given a holy decree by the Holy God for her meritorious service in curing the plague, and after the two of us examined, it was determined that it was smallpox, and this person died of illness. Now this person's dead body is lying in the lobby of our Huimin Pharmacy, and the grass people have preliminarily collected the corpse, just waiting for the adult's verdict. ”

The county magistrate smiled all of a sudden, and smiled very easily, and this smile made Zhu Hongyu's heart pinch suddenly.

"What should I do, it turns out to be this kind of trivial matter, since this person died in your Huimin Pharmacy in public, and this person verified that he did die of illness, I immediately asked the master to write a notice to find the corpse and post it in the county office, you can prepare the carriage and horses to transport the corpse over, and don't worry about the rest."

When Zhu Hongyu heard the county magistrate say this, she stood up suddenly, startling everyone.

"Master, you are our parents, this matter is not a trivial matter, this person has smallpox, and it is still preventable and curable, if it is delayed, there will be no cure at all."

Hearing Zhu Hongyu say this, the county magistrate waved his hand impatiently, and was very dissatisfied with Zhu Hongyu's reaction.

"Don't you feel ashamed of your family when a girl shows her head outside?"

Zhu Hongyu was blocked and had nothing to say, thinking left and right, now is not the time to carry it with the county master.

Du Yuexiao quickly stood up and bowed to the county master.

"County master, Miss Zhu is confused, she is also in a hurry. Indeed, as Miss Zhu said, this disease cannot be delayed. ”

The county magistrate looked at Du Yuexiao and asked, "Then what do you need from this county?"

"Don't dare, the little one just wants to bother the county master and listen to Miss Zhu's arrangement."

Zhu Hongyu was anxious on the side, thinking that this Du Yuexiao was too reckless, and he didn't listen to what he said about how to deal with it, so he directly took himself to the county office, and now it is good for a big man to listen to a daughter's words, or a county master to listen to a woman's words, how can this person be willing

"Absurd"

Sure enough, the county order reprimanded Du Yuexiao.

"Adult"

"You actually let this county listen to a woman, she is just the one who sprinkles and cleans up at home, better is Miss Qianjin, how can you decide what to do in this county, besides, let her order this county to lead the whole county, where is there such a reason."

"Adult" Du Yuexiao tried again, but Zhu Hongyu quickly grabbed his arm and told Du Yuexiao to stop talking.

Clearly, the prefectural order is now furious.

"If it weren't for your daily life, taking good care of the people in this county, willing to give free medical treatment to the poor, and going to the camphor tree to find medicine during the plague period, and being bullied by bandits, now you are a small businessman, this county will definitely not be polite to you."

Du Yuexiao looked at the county order, and was still unconvinced, but he didn't dare to speak at this time.

This county order is right, he is just a grass people, a grass people who are low to the bones, how can such a lowly person be on an equal footing with the county order?

"Yes, the master is right, the grass people do not have an equal status with you. What did the grass people do after that, today the grass people were abrupt, and a little later, the body was handed over. ”

After speaking, Du Yuexiao buckled his head again, and Zhu Hongyu followed behind Du Yuexiao and kowtowed.

This kowtow is not to kowtow to the county magistrate, but to the emperor and the entire court.

After the two of them finished saluting, they withdrew from the county office, and it was obvious that Du Yuexiao was even more helpless.

Zhu Hongyu looked at Du Yuexiao and felt very uncomfortable.

"What's wrong with you," Zhu Hongyu asked intimately.

Walking outside the county office, Du Yuexiao was really depressed in his heart, but there was really no way to get rid of this depressed mood.

"Don't feel uncomfortable, the county master just doesn't want to help us, I have a way."

Zhu Hongyu said confirmingly.

Du Yuexiao looked at Zhu Hongyu and smiled dismally.

"You have a way, what do you do"

"I'm at least not clear with the two most face-saving Taoist priests now, one of these two people is the abbot of Chaoyunguan, and the other is the head of Xuanmen, among which the abbot of Chaoyunguan has also experienced the plague himself, I believe there must be a way to find them. It is important for Ganzhou City to protect the people, and it doesn't matter what county lord farts in the hall. ”
