Chapter 2 Thinking of Danger
In this way, the master and servant walked one after the other, on the tattered streets.
Sure enough, the costume dramas are all deceitful, although Shou County is not a big county, but it can also be compared to a city, with hundreds of thousands of people.
And it is such a place, but the streets are in tatters, there is no small bridge and flowing water as Li Yue imagined, and there is no so-called flower before the moon.
From time to time, there was a sour smell on the street, and Li Yue regretted going out a little.
Across a long street, there is a small river and a stone bridge, this stone bridge was also funded by the Li family, so it has won the praise of many people.
The riverside is much cleaner and much cleaner.
You can see a few peasant women by the river washing clothes, talking and laughing, but it is peaceful.
Where does this look like at the end of the Ming Dynasty?
Li Yue couldn't help but doubt the memory in his mind, he really traveled to the end of the Ming Dynasty?
At this time, he saw several scholars sitting in a pavilion by the river.
One of the young men in blue clothes said with a worried look, "There has been a great drought in the south for many years, and there are barbarian infestations on the border, and there are bandits on all sides. ”
"So what, but the problem of scabies, it won't take long for the imperial court to sweep away those rogues, not to mention the border gates, barbarians are just barbarians after all."
The other, a slightly stout scholar, said disdainfully, showing that he didn't care about the rogues and the barbarians at the border gates.
It is also said that now the Ming Dynasty has been inherited for hundreds of years, and the people always have a kind of blind confidence in the imperial court.
If Li Yue hadn't known about this history, I'm afraid he would have really believed that guy's words.
"It seems to be true, if this is just the problem, why is the disease like this." Li Yue couldn't help but complain.
He knows very well that the court is now worried about internal and external troubles.
The most important thing is that the ills of the imperial court are difficult to return.
From cabinet ministers to local officials, they have all become bloodsuckers on the giant of the Ming Dynasty.
And at the moment, this giant is obviously about to be unable to support it, and it is only a matter of time before it falls.
"Who's talking nonsense where, come out."
As if hearing Li Yue's words, the stout scholar in the pavilion frowned and shouted.
Li Yue didn't hide it, so he walked under the tree by the river.
"Li Yue? I heard that your Li family is making a lot of trouble today, why do you have the leisure to come to the river? When the blue-clothed scholar saw that it was Li Yue, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he asked as if he could easily handle it.
"What does it have to do with you?"
Li Yue was not angry, but replied with four words gently.
This made the smile on the blue-clothed scholar's face stiffen a little, and he glanced at Li Yue with a rather unhappy expression.
"Now that the plague in Kuiniu Village is scattered, I heard that your Li family has sent a lot of doctors over, and they are very busy, but I don't think that you, the son of the Li family, are still in the mood to come out for a walk."
The scholar in blue clothes is called Zhou Tong, a disciple of the Zhou family in Shou County, and Li Yue has never dealt with him.
"What does it have to do with you?"
Li Yue is still the same four words.
The smile on Zhou Tong's face disappeared completely. A little impatiently, he said, "Hmph, you are not welcome here, if you want to find something, go elsewhere." ”
Li Yue stood still and smiled.
Although I don't know what Li Yue means, seeing Li Yue's expression made Zhou Tong extremely uncomfortable, and it felt like being ignored.
Li Yue walked towards the river by himself, seemingly ignoring a few people at all.
He really didn't take these people seriously, and at the moment he was thinking about what to do in the future.
Born in troubled times, if you don't have a strong army as a backing, you are destined to become cannon fodder!
I just listened to what Li Tong and others said, and it is estimated that although there is not much turmoil at the moment, the decline of the Ming Dynasty has been revealed, and it will not be long before it will be completely turbulent.
At that time, the more big families like the Li family, the more extensive the implication will be.
Yangzhou massacre on the 10th, Li Yue was curious and specially read some historical materials.
Just looking at the words, he was chilled to the bone.
If he had experienced it himself, he would not have dared to think about it.
If he really got to that point, he would rather learn from Chongzhen and find a crooked neck tree and commit suicide directly.
After thinking about it like this, Li Yue's mood became heavier and heavier.
Without the leisure to continue shopping, Li Yue took the girl Yue'er and returned directly to Li's mansion.
After returning to his room, after thinking for a moment, he found a pen and paper and began to write.
He knew about the plague in Kuiniu Village, and it should be an infectious disease like smallpox.
The infected person first developed herpes all over his body, then his skin gradually decomposed, and then he had symptoms of vomiting and high fever, until all his internal organs were severely overdrawn and deformed, and he died.
And this process is extremely short, basically only three or four days.
In total, there are more than 1,000 people in this village, most of whom have been infected, and more than 300 people have died.
It can be said that the case fatality rate is relatively high among the plagues recorded in ancient and modern times.
Even the surrounding villagers who had contact with the patients in Kuiniu Village began to show similar symptoms.
It's just that Li Yue has just crossed over, and he hasn't had time to think about many things.
After careful reminders, it gave him some ideas.
Getting through the current difficulties is the key.
Kuiniu Village belongs to the Li family, and most of the people who live there are branches of the Li family.
A big family is indispensable to countless relatives, which is why the Li family sent a doctor to Kuiniu Village to deal with the plague.
It's a pity that the effect is not great, but it has damaged a few doctors with excellent medical skills.
The plague continues to spread in Kuiniu Village and the surrounding villages, and if it continues like this, maybe Shou County will also be affected.
I'm afraid that a lot of people will really die by then!
As an intern doctor in the medical school, Li Yue knew the rules and regulations of the epidemic control best, especially after experiencing that major epidemic.
The movements in his hands did not stop, and soon, Li Yue wrote a book of rules and regulations related to the plague.
If you follow the booklet, it will not make the plague disappear immediately, but it will effectively prevent the spread of the plague.
At the same time, it can also enhance the prestige of the Li family in Shou County, and even the entire Huainan.
This has a great effect on Li Yue's later plans.
Then, Li Yue took the booklet whose ink had not yet dried and walked towards the front yard.
The front yard of the Li Mansion is a place to deal with the affairs of the clan, and most of the time the old man of the Li family, Li Shouchang, will stay here.
"I want to see Grandpa."
When he came to the front yard, Li Yue was stopped by Fu Bo who was guarding the door.
Fu Bo was the thin old housekeeper who trembled with excitement when Li Yue woke up.
"Childe, the master is receiving guests, otherwise you can come back later." Fauber was a little embarrassed.
Hearing this, Li Yue did not continue to insist, but stood aside and waited obediently.
After all, you can't rush to deal with the plague, especially if you want to implement the content of the control manual you have written.
That's a whole hour!
Finally, when Li Yue began to get impatient, a middle-aged man with a beard walked out of the front yard.
