Section 9: Deterioration
The epidemic is getting worse faster than expected.
In just ten days, Uncle Zhang was not cured, but more and more people were infected with the disease.
Si Dao, He Miaoluo, and Fu Qianwen always stayed in the Houshan Academy. They couldn't meet Xia Yunhua, and they could only learn a small amount of information through Sun Xiu.
According to Sun Xiu's information, Xia Yunhua has issued a statement that the epidemic has a certain incubation period. People who are infected with the disease do not initially have any symptoms, but they can spread the disease to others. The mode of transmission is saliva. Anyone who speaks to an infected person can become infected.
Once the disease occurs, if there is not enough medical treatment, the patient may die rapidly within 10 days.
Today, with the help of the medical team formed by Xia Yunhua, there have been no deaths in Jianshui Town, but more and more people are sick, and they have broken through the limit of what the clinic can bear. Now, Jianshui Town has quickly sent out a request for help, hoping that the county can appoint a medical team to come to support.
The team that purchased grain and grass has not yet returned, and unexpectedly, the epidemic began to rage.
Under the influence of the epidemic, the school did not continue to be held, and the drama naturally could not continue to open. There were only three of them left in the huge school. Without the noise of the students, the original quiet life returns. However, Si Dao, He Miaoluo, and Fu Qianwen can no longer feel the happiness they had before.
In the past seven days, the three of them have basically been unable to settle down, worrying about Xia Yunhua and Jianshui Town all day long, and waiting for news from Jianshui Town every day.
Although the epidemic did not spread to the school. However, the depression caused by the epidemic is becoming more and more intense. Every day, there is good news about a breakthrough in the treatment of the epidemic. However, the epidemic has never been truly cured. Moreover, judging from the number of infected people, the epidemic has become more and more uncontrollable. In the entire Jianshui Town, one out of 100 people has been infected by the epidemic.
Not only that, but the number of people getting sick is still rising, and there is no trend of stopping. In this way, how can the three of them be stable?
Finally, Homulo could not wait any longer. She packed her luggage and prepared to go out: "I'm going to Jianshui Town to help Senior Brother Xia." ”
"No, you can't even bear the common cold, how can you resist such a terrible epidemic. I disagree. ”
Si Dao directly snatched He Miaoluo's luggage, forcibly hugged He Miolo, and disagreed with her leaving. Now, the school is at least safe.
"Si Dao, I love you, so don't let me dislike you. At noon yesterday and noon today, Senior Brother Xia's letter was not delivered. He must have contracted the disease. Now, Senior Brother Xia's situation is unknown, and I have to go and confirm. If you don't know how to heal, it will take at least some time for the rescue team in the county to arrive. I have to go. ”
He Miuluo was resolute. She is very similar to Si Dao, she can not care about many things, but once she decides, it is difficult to change.
Si Dao slowly let go of He Miro. He sighed helplessly: "Then I'll go too." ”
"Si Dao, don't make trouble, what are you going to do?
"Si Dao, let Mullo go, this is what she should do. Fu Qianwen also persuaded.
"Should it be done?" said Si Dao, gritting his teeth.
He gasped: "Why, why should we go? Hehuan Sect doesn't boast that there is a difference between immortals and mortals? Doesn't it boast that it is superior? Mortal lives are just ants, what do we have to go? We just want to live a stable mortal life, why is it so difficult? Why is there a bandit all at once, and an epidemic at once? Rely on~"
He kicked the bamboo fence on the side fiercely, and directly kicked the bamboo fence to break.
"Si Dao~"
He Muluo's face was cold, even colder than during the rehearsal of the play. She walked in front of Si Dao and raised her hand to slap her.
The slap slapped on Si Dao's face, crisp and loud.
Then, He Muluo took the salute, walked out of the school without looking back, and went to Jianshui Town, leaving only one sentence: "Si Dao, you let me down too much!"
Si Dao didn't stop it again. His eyes were red, tears were falling, and he fell to his knees, and could only watch as He Muluo left.
"Si Dao. Fu Qianwen stood beside Si Dao.
"You think I'm wrong too? I don't want something wrong with Mulo, what's wrong with that? I don't want to lose her. ”
"You used to risk your life to go to Huaihe County to treat the epidemic. You used to risk your life to lure away the Black Moon and save me and Mulo. You used to be able to ignore the taboo of Hehuan and risk your life to save the demon slave. You used to go to the wild country desperately to save the demon clan's Tsing Yi. You are not afraid of death and dare to investigate the mighty Black Moon. You should be able to understand that there are some things that Mulrow has to do. We can't stop it. ”
"Yes, I've changed a lot, I've changed a lot. I have slaughtered millions of living beings. In comparison, all the people in Jianshui Town are just drizzle. I'm selfish, I just want Homulo to be safe. She didn't have much time to live, so why couldn't she live well for a while? I don't want anything to bother. Whatever is wrong, what's wrong with me?"
Tears flowed from Si Dao's eyes. The more he spoke, the louder he spoke. He resented, hated, and did not repent.
"If you know that Mullo's life is constantly flowing, you should know that if she does not go, there will be no peace for the rest of her short life. In that case, what is the difference between her life and death? We immortal cultivators pay the most attention to following our hearts, don't we?"
"Fuck the cultivators~ Fuck the heart~ I don't want those things. What does that have to do with me? There are so many people suffering all the time in the world, why don't you worry about it at that time, at that time...... At that time, how did your heart stop water? It doesn't have to happen...... Only when it happens in front of you can you take action? Immortal cultivators are all hypocrites...... It's all hypocrisy. Si Dao cried out, and even his words trembled.
Since coming to the world of cultivating immortals, Si Dao has never been so emotional.
Fu Qianwen didn't know how to answer Si Dao. She just crouched down and hugged Si Dao, who was kneeling on the ground.
After Si Dao vented his emotions, he regained his consciousness a little. He continued: "Of course I do. Of course I knew, she was supposed to go. But I just don't want to. ”
"Actually, maybe it's not as bad as you think. The pandemic doesn't necessarily infect Muro. Besides, Miao Luo and Senior Brother Xia will definitely find a way to cure the epidemic. If they can't do it, who else in the world can do it?" Fu Qianwen reassured.
"Well, you're right, they must have a way. Si Dao said to himself.
He got up slowly, and made up his mind: "I'll wait a week." A week later, if the epidemic is not under control, I will go to Jianshui Town to find her. ”
"Okay, in a week, if the situation still doesn't work, I'll go with you. Fu Qianwen agreed.
She wasn't worried about He Muluo and Xia Yunhua.
