Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Plague

Seeing that Zhan Kun was soft, Li Gongfu didn't think much of it, his eyes flashed with blue light, and he released all the people who were included in the "Mirage Fantasy Realm", and stood in a black pressure. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Everyone looked at Li Gongfu, who was sitting on it and looked at them with interest, and they didn't know how to face it for a while, so they all looked at Zhan Kun secretly.

Zhan Kun saw that Li Gongfu's gaze fell on him after wandering through the crowd for a week, and there was a coldness in his eyes, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you come up to meet Lord Li!"

Everyone woke up like a dream, hurriedly bowed upward, and said in unison: "My subordinates have seen the first adult." ”

"Excuse me. Li Gongfu smiled and waved his hand, and then said, "This seat is new to Jinhua, and everything depends on your concerted efforts, so that my Jinhua Mansion branch can get out of the current predicament." ”

Everyone saw that this first lord was not only strong in means, but also seemed to be an old fritter who had been in the officialdom for a long time, and he spoke a few words steadily, full of official articles, and was definitely a character who was not easy to fool.

Li Gongfu looked at the expressions of the people below, coughed lightly and said, "Deacon Zhan and the three second-level deacons will stay, and the rest will return to their places!"

Hearing this, the first-class deacons and the black-clad deacons who had not yet entered the stream bowed again and withdrew.

Li Gongfu asked again: "Deacon Zhan, what is the current situation of our Jinhua Mansion Branch?"

Zhan Kun replied with a wry smile: "Qiqi Shouza, since the death of the predecessor Meng Shouza, because the murderer has not been identified for a long time, everyone's mood is a little low. ”

Li Gongfu frowned and said: "We naturally have to find out about the murder of Meng Shouzuo, but we can't just take care of this one thing. In my opinion, we can start with other cases and do a few things to boost morale. ”

An inexplicable glint suddenly flashed in Zhan Kun's eyes, and he applauded and echoed: "What the first seat said is extremely true, how can his subordinates not think of this truth in advance. Speaking of cases, there is exactly one right now. ”

Li Gongfu said: "What's the matter?"

Zhan Kun said: "Not long ago, there was a plague in Jinhua County, and many people were infected. According to the news reported by the company's eyeliner, this plague came quite strangely, and it did not seem to be a natural disaster but a man-made disaster. ”

"Plague?" asked Li Gongfu, "Is there any more detailed information?"

Zhan Kun shook his head and said, "Not yet, but the newly appointed county commander of Jinhua County, Lord Xu, seems to be also investigating this matter, and he may already have some clues there." ”

After pondering for a moment, Li Gongfu said decisively: "This seat will take this matter as the first case to be investigated after taking office, and you must immediately send additional people to investigate the cause of it." As for Jinhua County, I will personally ask about it. ”

Zhan Kun bowed down with the three second-class deacons to receive the order.

Next, Li Gongfu made a handover with Zhan Kun, who had previously acted as an agent for the affairs of the Jinhua Mansion Branch, which were quite cumbersome and were not fully sorted out until dusk.

stayed on the mountain for one night, and the next morning, Li Gongfu took Ah Er down the mountain and headed for Jinhua County.

When I entered the city gate, I saw many people with gray faces and vain steps, as if they were seriously ill.

"The living immortals have issued the 'panacea' again!"

Suddenly, someone on the street opened their throats and shouted.

Hearing this shout, the sick people came to their senses and rushed to the other side of the street.

"Living Immortals?"

Li Gongfu's heart moved, and he said to Ah Er behind him: "Let's go over and have a look." ”

The two also quickened their pace, following the crowd to the other end of the street. There is a small land shrine here, and a long incense case is placed at the door of the ancestral temple, and celadon medicine bottles are densely placed on the table.

In front of the incense case, a futon was placed, and a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a goose yellow robe, five short figures, and a wide mouth with protruding eyes sat cross-legged like Mount Tai, his eyes slightly closed as if he was condensing his breath and recuperating his mind.

Behind the Taoist priest, there were two fourteen or fifteen-year-old Taoist boys, standing solemnly with a wooden sword and a floating dust.

"Please save your life from the living immortals!"

At this time, the patients who came to him were already kneeling in front of the priest, and they were prostrating while wailing.

The Taoist priest was still silent, but the Taoist boy behind him who was holding the floating dust stood up and said loudly: "Fathers and fellow villagers, please listen to the small word!"

The patients were immediately silenced.

Dao Tong said: "Recently, there has been a plague invading Jinhua County, this is a disaster from heaven, and it is also a disaster that you should have. However, since I am a monk, I should have compassion in my heart, so I will not hesitate to condense my natal vitality into this 'panacea' when I go against the heavens, so as to relieve you of the epidemic. ”

At this time, another Dao boy also stood up and continued: "However, the elixir should not be given lightly, otherwise it will be difficult to see the hardships of my immortal master depleting the natal vitality refining medicine. With the ability of my immortal master, I can refine 100 bottles of elixir every day, and each bottle can relieve a person's illness. If there are people who seek medicine, please put a tael of tattooed silver in the wooden box next to the incense table, and then each person is limited to one bottle of medicine. In addition, before taking the medicine, I also need to recite my immortal master's Taoist name 'Dao Ling Zhenren' three times, and the more pious my heart is, the more effective the effect of this 'elixir' will be. ”

The two Dao boys said that, turned around and bowed to the Taoist priest for instructions: "Immortal Master, is it possible to distribute the elixir?"

The Taoist priest still didn't open his eyes, just nodded slightly.

A Taoist boy said to everyone: "Please go up the money in turn to receive the elixir, remember not to crowd and compete!"

Hearing this, the sick people who knelt down immediately got up, lined up in a long line, held the silver in their hands, and went to the incense case one by one to receive the elixir.

After the pill arrived, many people couldn't wait, shouted three times in their mouths, "Dao Ling Zhenren", and then bowed to the Taoist priest and took the medicine.

It is said that this "panacea" is also really effective, after those people took the medicine, the complexion on their faces immediately improved a lot, so they thanked the Taoist priest with gratitude.

A hundred bottles of elixir had been dispensed in an instant, and the line of the sick was still stretching backwards.

At this time, the Taoist priest suddenly opened his eyes and stood up, and returned to the land shrine behind him without saying a word.

The two Dao boys stepped forward again and said to the people behind: "The one hundred bottles of elixir have been distributed recently, please be early tomorrow." ”

Then he lifted the wooden box containing the money and turned it back to the land shrine.

Although everyone was unwilling to see this, none of them dared to make trouble in the land of "living immortals", so they could only lament while dragging their weak bodies away.

Li Gongfu has been standing from a distance watching the whole process of this matter, looking at the Taoist priest who was worshiped by everyone, and sighed in his heart: "People say 'thousands of miles are destined to meet', and whoever is a thousand miles away can meet if they have grievances." I can't imagine that Bai Suzhen came to Jinhua County with Xu Xian, and she still encountered this old enemy!"
