Chapter 68 Continue to treat heart diseases and continue to inspect

As mentioned last time, Liu Hou, Bu Qi and others came to the burial site and saw two piles of human and animal corpses piled up, and felt extremely shocked, terrifying and disgusting.

Of course, except for Liu Hou, he and some of his own soldiers have personally experienced the Battle of Jingzhou and the Battle of Nanzhong, and they have seen countless dead corpses along the way, and their nerves have been trained very early, so they can be indifferent to these corpses.

It turned out that this was the place where the corpses recovered by various corpse collection teams were stored and disposed of. Originally, there was a Yizhuang outside the town, which was specially used to temporarily store corpses. But this Yizhuang was also washed away by the flood, and there were so many corpses to be disposed of that a small Yizhuang could not accommodate it at all.

So, the Shu army simply found a large open space outside the town and disposed of the corpses in the wilderness. The method of disposing of the corpse is very simple, one word: "burn".

Although the corpse was sprinkled with lime powder before moving back, this thing was not bleaching powder after all, and the disinfection effect was insufficient, not to mention that it could not act on the inside of the corpse. From ancient times to the present, the best way to deal with carrion is to burn it.

At this time, in addition to the two piles of corpses, there were also several piles of firewood in front of everyone, and the raging fire was burning the corpses in batches. There were soldiers and civilians who were busy carrying out some of the corpses and placing them on the firewood that had not yet begun to burn, and then someone was responsible for lighting the fire and burning the corpses.

Further outskirts, some people were building new piles of firewood and grass, apparently preparing for a new crematorium.

Farther away, on country roads, people and soldiers were carrying firewood and hay from afar. In short, everyone has a clear division of labor, each performing their own duties, and they are busy like a group of industrious ants.

If you don't look at what they're up to, it's a fascinating picture of collective labor. It's a pity that after seeing what they are doing, they will think that they have come to the Shura Hell.

Bu Qiu finally had a perceptual understanding of the artificial flood he created this time and killed so many people. But before he could figure it out, His Royal Highness the Prince's somewhat hateful voice sounded again,

"That's just a tiny fraction of the corpses, less than a fraction of the people you've killed. There are also such burials in other towns. ”

This time, no one had to hold him, he trembled and climbed out of the carriage and slowly walked towards the mountain of corpses where the corpses were piled up.

Liu Hou saw that his expression was sluggish, his eyes were straight, and he was trembling, knowing that he had entered an extreme psychological state, so he did not stop him.

I saw Bu Qi trembling majestically in front of the corpse mountain, and knelt down all of a sudden, completely ignoring the disgusting smell of the corpse, completely ignoring the corpse water flowing underground, and knelt down like this.

"Woo, woo, woo" Bu Qi began to howl, tears rained down on the already wrinkled face, and the distorted face looked like a chrysanthemum crippled by the rain.

After crying, he began to beat his feet and chest, then put his hands on the ground, kowtowed vigorously, and screamed heartbreakingly: "I was wrong! I was wrong! "I really made a big mistake! "O heaven, O earth, punish me! I know I was wrong! ”

The sound of prostrations was loud, and even though it was a soft muddy ground, Buqi's forehead was quickly shattered, and blood stained the dirt underground.

Zhou Xue pulled Liu Hou's sleeve worriedly and looked at him with pleading eyes. Liu Hou felt that it was almost over, and if he continued like this, this step would have to knock him to death. So, he gave an order to one of his own soldiers: "Go and pull him up." ”

The two pro-soldiers stepped forward and forcibly erected the Bu Qi, Bu Qi was still struggling, but he had been on hunger strike for too long, and his body was very weak, although he had just drunk a few bowls of sugar and salt water, but it was still far from recovering his normal physical strength, and there were two strong and long-term training pro-soldier opponents, who were suddenly picked up by the pro-soldiers like chickens and thrown back to the carriage.

Bu Qi was still not honest when he arrived at the carriage, and continued to kneel on the floor of the carriage, kowtowing his head hard, the wooden plank was much harder than the mud, and Bu Qi's forehead was instantly injured and injured, and blood suddenly splashed on the carriage.

Liu Hou looked at him, frowned and yelled, "Okay, you're not finished." Got my carriage dirty. If you make a mistake and kowtow and admit your mistake, what's the use of catching it quickly? ”

Bu Qiu was awakened by Liu Houyi's roar, got out of that mysterious mental state, stopped kowtowing and crying, and pondered the prince's words in his heart. "If you make a mistake and kowtow and admit your mistake, what's the use of catching it quickly?" The more I pondered, the more I felt that this sentence was unusual, and the more I pondered, the more I felt that this sentence contained profound philosophy.

Seeing that Buqi was quiet, Liu Hou ordered the carriage to restart, turn around and leave the burial place, walk through the town, to the other side of the town, and run to the next location.

"Now that you know that you have made a big mistake, you have to find a way to correct it, to atone for it, to make amends for the people you have hurt, so that is a positive attitude. It's useless for you to feel sorry for yourself, to find your life, to kill yourself, and to harm your body.

The people you have killed are still displaced, homeless, hungry, poor, sick and miserable.

What you have to do now is to help them get out of their situation, rebuild their homes and live a good life again. ”

Hearing this, Bu Qi knelt in front of Liu Hou very sincerely, knocked his head uprightly and said, "Please teach me what the prince can do to redeem my crimes, how to compensate the people who have been affected by the disaster, and let them live a good life again." ”

"The children can be taught." Liu Hou touched his chin and didn't have a beard, pretending to be an old pedant and said, "The next stop is the place where we rebuild our home, you can take a good look at how we do it." ”

Soon, they arrived at the place where the people were rebuilding their homes. Soon, Buqi was shocked by the labor scene in Hongdae here.

This is a relatively high vacant lot not far from the town, and such a site should be selected to take into account the requirements of flood control. Thousands of people built houses on this vacant land, including ordinary people, soldiers of the Shu army, and craftsmen of the Shu army, and the scene was spectacular.

The carriage first passed through a simple memorial arch into the village, this simple memorial arch is actually two pillars, and a horizontal wooden board is hung high in the middle, and the wooden board is engraved with the four big characters of "military and civilian new village", apparently to commemorate that this new village was established with the help of the Shu army.

Sitting in the carriage, Buqi saw the scene of labor in full swing all the way, some carpenters sawing wood, some erecting beams, some masons laying bricks, some digging foundations, some leveling the ground, and more people carrying various building materials.

Bu Qiu saw that these people were building houses with bricks and tiles, and he was shocked again, these days, the common people built houses mostly with thatch for roofs, and then with mud and grass for walls. It seems that such a house with brick walls and tiles as a roof is the treatment that only the landlord has to offer.

But Bu Qi looked around and found that these houses were all uniformly regulated, and there were no thatched houses built, could it be that all the landlords lived here? However, where did so many landlords come from?

If you don't understand, you have to ask, the current Buqi has gone through a violent spiritual baptism, and he has long been free of that arrogance and stubbornness, especially in front of Liu Hou, he is very convinced. He knew in his heart that although this prince was only a teenager, he knew much more than himself.

"Prince, why are they building all brick houses? Who are these rooms for? ”

Liu Hou looked at him strangely and said, "Of course you want to build a brick house, can you still build a cement house?" That's too costly. Of course, these houses are for the people affected by the disaster, but who else can they live in? ”

Bu Qi didn't understand what a cement house was, but it had nothing to do with his question, and he didn't pay attention to it, he asked: "Since it's for the people to live in, why don't you build a thatched house?" ”

"Hey, I said Master Bu, why are you so unconscionable, just now you confessed that you knew that you had committed a heinous crime, and said that you wanted to atone for your sins and compensate the people, why are you so mean to the people in a blink of an eye?"

"I, I, I'm not mean to the people." Bu Qi Na Na Tunnel.

"Then you still say that you want to give the people thatched houses? The Lingnan region is windy and rainy, with frequent floods and a humid climate. Thatched houses don't stand up to the house, and maybe the next typhoon will blow the roof off, and the next flood will blow the house down.

Even without these, during the rainy season, thatched houses will become moldy everywhere. How do you let people live in such an environment? Just now I said that I want the people to live a good life, but how can it be considered a good life if I don't live in a strong and dry brick house? ”

"Uh" Bu Qi was speechless for a while, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Qiu also knows that it is best to let the people live in brick houses." However, brick houses are expensive, and with our current money, it is difficult to build a large number of brick houses.

The basic principle of disaster relief is to be fast, large and average. Now that there are a large number of victims, we need to resettle them all, and we should use money and food in key places, and even if we want to build accommodation, we should try to build simple accommodation places as quickly as possible, such as shacks, tents, and thatched huts, so as to accommodate as many people as possible.

If brick houses are built, only a small number of houses can be built, so that few people will be resettled, and those who have not been resettled will be dissatisfied, and it will be easy to cause trouble. ”

Listening to Bu Qi's words, Liu Hou nodded secretly, this Bu Qi is worthy of being the future prime minister of Eastern Wu, and he really has two brushes. His principle of "rapid, massive, average" makes sense and is indeed applicable in this era, and even in future generations.

In vain, he played the role of a spiritual mentor and carried out psychic shock treatment on him, and it seems that he is very hopeful of poaching him to serve under his command.

Although this person has a little more vicious and cruel to the people, after this spiritual baptism, I believe that his heart will definitely change in the future, and maybe he will become a good official who loves the people like a son. In that case, you'll really find a treasure.

Since this step may be his right-hand man in the future, he naturally wants to give him a good lesson and solve his doubts, so Liu Hou explained to him:

"Hehe, Master Bu said it well, the disaster relief principles you mentioned are indeed the most reasonable, but I want to tell you that your three principles are only the principles of the early stage of disaster relief. And we've already gotten past that stage. You'll find out with me. ”

After saying this, Liu Hou let the carriage go around the construction site and come to another area. As soon as he came here, Bu Qi immediately understood the meaning of what the prince had just said.

It was densely packed with tents and shacks, and it was obvious that this was a temporary living area for the victims. In other words, this prince has already taken out the military tent and realized the three principles that Bu Qi said just now. To Buqi's surprise, these tents turned out to be all the military tents of the Shu army.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, these are military tents, are they, are they ......" Bu Qi thought of a possibility, but he couldn't believe it, didn't dare to imagine that it would be like this.

"That's right, these are the military tents of our army, I let the soldiers squeeze out, save half of the military tents for the disaster victims to live, our army has more than 100,000 people, the saved military tents are enough to house tens of thousands of disaster victims, and build some shacks, you can house all the disaster victims. You can ask if there is no one who needs to sleep in the wilderness. ”
