Chapter 463: Malaria
In the early morning of the next day, the guards with knives entered the inner prison to inspect the inner prison, and when they passed through the C-numbered Zhongcang, a prison that could accommodate 15 people, the convicts inside were lying on the ground dying, and their mouths were swearing like dreams.
This old jailer can also be regarded as an experienced "cell leader", who is used to eating blood-stained money and silver in the past, and seems to have no scruples, but he is actually careful.
He saw that something was wrong with the barn, so he walked to the front of the barn, suddenly crouched down, drew his knife out of its sheath, and poked out the empty scabbard forward, hooked the collar of one of the criminals with its curled end, and dragged it in front of him with a slight use of force and dexterity.
The criminal in his hand had a yellow and thin face, and fine goosebumps appeared on his exposed skin, which was completely different from the impression in the past.
The jailer with the knife was very surprised, after all, it had only been one night, how could such a big change have happened? When his gaze wandered to the criminal's lips, nails, slightly reddened blue, and slightly trembling body, and the chattering sound of the upper and lower rows of teeth, his heart suddenly groaned, and his hands suddenly let go, and he watched the criminal fall heavily to the ground.
The bottom of his throat reverberated with thunderous anger and horror, and the uneasy emotion was like a demon, grasping the heart of the sword-wielding jailer, and rubbing it violently, turning into a pile of tattered pieces in an instant.
"Malaria!"
In ancient times, the ancestors wrote "malaria" as "abuse". In the "Rites and Monthly Order", it is said that "the people have a lot of malaria". At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xi, a native of Beihai, explained "malaria" in his "Interpretation of Names and Diseases", calling this disease "cruel abuse". "All diseases are cold or hot, and this disease is cold first and then hot, like a cruel abuser. ”
In the pre-Qin period, malaria was first endemic in southern China. The so-called "malaria and cold disease in autumn" in "Zhou Li" refers to the frequent occurrence of this epidemic in autumn. The "Book of Rites" believes that if the temperature is high in autumn, that is, the so-called "summer time" in autumn, there will be an outbreak of malaria, because the mosquitoes that transmit malaria multiply intensively.
The jailer with the knife immediately held his breath, turned around and rushed out without hesitation, malaria occurred in a certain warehouse in the inner prison, which means that a large-scale plague outbreak is not far away, if you don't want the people in the prison to die, even yourself will suffer, you can only ......
It is impossible to give up, and it is impossible to give up in this life. The family of the sword jailer has been engaged in this cheap labor for generations, and his flesh, flesh and marrow and even his soul are branded with the mark of prison, and he can't think of anything else he can do except this business.
For now, the only way to do this is to tell the book office as soon as possible, and get the news to the ears of the county officials through the prison officials, so that the higher-ups can decide what to do.
In order to attract enough attention, the jailer with a knife decided to make the situation worse and add a little oil and vinegar, which now seems to be inevitable.
Li Xuan, who was staying in the small warehouse of the inner prison No. A, commanded Ruo to use the five ghosts to possess him, overturned the criminals in the No. C Zhongcang, and easily attracted the attention of the patrol guards, believing that it would not be long before the lies planted with the wings of rumors would cause chaos in the county jail.
Within the controllable range, it is not easy to let Song Zhong, a half-demon of the wood genus who has been subdued by him, disguise himself as a corpse that died of malaria, leave the inner prison openly, and save the last relatives in this world.
Originally, Li Daitao's strategy was too superficial, and it was not as good as the now revised plan to hide the sky and cross the sea. Next, it depends on whether the officials and men of the Shaoxing County Government cherish their net worth and life.
The bureaucratic management system that gradually corrupts and decays in the song and dance is like loess buried in the neck, one foot in the coffin, the thinking gradually ossified, and the slow response to everything.
However, under the bad news of the imminent outbreak of large-scale malaria, after a short period of chaos, in order to save his life and keep his hat, the three shifts and six rooms were quickly mobilized.
Those who re-entered the prison were all lowly guards, their faces covered with cloths soaked in medicinal liquid, and their eyes were full of mixed emotions of hesitation and panic.
When they came to the inner prison C-number, the criminal who had cold hands and feet was now like a fire, with red faces and red ears, like a stove in his chest and abdomen.
Someone reached out in disbelief to touch it, and then, as if bitten by a poisonous snake, quickly withdrew his paw, and immediately wiped it with the wet towel he carried with him.
The first jailer with a knife who discovered malaria, when he saw this scene in front of him, he first nodded lightly with relief, his heart was a lot more settled, and he couldn't help but secretly think that his discovery was indeed right, and it was not unreasonable to add oil and vinegar.
Immediately, he found himself surrounded by malaria patients, even if he had a medicine towel to protect him, he was afraid that he would not last long, and his breathing suddenly became heavy.
The reaction of the sword guards was like a plague, one to two, two to four, and four to eight, and quickly spread among the cannon fodder squads that entered the inner prison.
"Look at what, hurry up and get moving!"
The leading jailer snorted angrily, only to break the current strange atmosphere, and when the jailer reacted, he immediately untied the cloth bag, walked to the vicinity of the prison barn, and carefully poured out the ...... inside Lime.
When the damp ground came into contact with the lime, it reacted quickly, and in a series of explosions, pungent smoke rose endlessly, as if a new prison had been formed outside the cell.
However, this lime prison is not for ordinary criminals, but for malaria, one of the five most terrible infectious diseases, which can easily kill people.
After seeing someone move, the other guards followed suit, and first went to their respective prisons to check the situation of the prisoners in them.
The result frightened them, most of the prison barns had people "swinging", and normal people began to become a little abnormal when they saw such a big battle.
When the jailer heard the report of the jailer under his command, his heart had already sunk to the bottom, his hands clenched into fists, and the roar pressed in his throat leaked out from between his teeth: "Sure enough, it's malaria!"
This is the worst-case scenario, and the adults in the county government are most worried about this, a large-scale epidemic is brewing, and it is estimated that it will not be long before it will break out, quickly spread throughout the entire Shaoxing City, and spread to the surrounding areas.
For a very brief moment, the jailer wanted to set fire to the inner prison, or even the entire prison. As long as malaria is strangled in infancy, he believes that you will not blame it too much, after all, prison flooding often happens, and it is always inevitable that a few prisoners will die!
However, the last bit of conscience in his heart stopped the jailer's beast-like thoughts in time, pulled him back to the bright side of human nature, and reconsidered how to deal with it.
"There are fewer people in the outer prison and the female prison, so they have opened the barn door and let them out, remember to bring shackles and shackles, so as not to disturb the adults in the county office. ”
The jailer's mind suddenly became very clear: "As for the inner prison, the prisoners who are alive should be transferred to the outer prison as soon as possible." As for the dead, the half-dead, you all sprinkle lime on me, suppress the plague, wrap them in straw mats, and send them to the mound for burial. ”
"Also, these corpses are buried together, and they all put the Five Poison Town Tomb Beasts for me. Malaria epidemic gas, not to be underestimated!" 2k reading network
