Missy, She Always Does Not Seek To Make Progress

Qingpingguan is indeed in trouble because of the plague outbreak in Lijiatun. In order to find out the list of villagers who stayed in the village during the time when the first person became ill, in case someone escaped from the village and hid outside, causing big trouble, this After going back and forth, they found the Li family and her daughter, and then found out that the two of them were hiding in Qingpingguan.

As a result, before the government guards came to arrest people, a death occurred at the foot of Qingpingguan Mountain. The symptoms of the dead person were similar to those of the dead people in Lijiatun. The government officials immediately sent troops to surround the area.

 Don’t care if it’s the plague or not, let’s take precautions first!

 In recent years, natural disasters have occurred one after another, and many people have been displaced. Most of the people at the foot of Qingpingguan Mountain are refugees and beggars. There are shacks set up there to protect them from wind and rain, and they can always have a place to stay.

　　When the soldiers surrounded this large area, everyone panicked. In addition, the two dead men died in a horrific manner, and they all thought of something.

 Plague.

Some people with smart minds suddenly thought of the fear caused by the plague and the possible response that the government would take. I don't know who screamed, and there were many people who were panicking and trying to escape.

However, if we are surrounded, how can we escape so easily?

Those who tried to escape by force were all killed by swords and spears, which made the refugees even more panicked and frightened. However, under the strong suppression, people were frightened and they did not dare to escape by force anymore. They just stayed away from the dead man.

The smarter ones ran to the Taoist temple. After all, there was a plague at the foot of the mountain. If there was nowhere to hide, they could only go to the Taoist temple to seek protection. At least they would have roofs to cover their heads, food to eat, and even protection from gods.

 Unfortunately, Taoist temples are not accessible either.

Some people have violent tempers, especially when their lives are threatened. Seeing that the Taoist temple's mountain gate is closed and no one can enter, they speak indiscriminately, curse, and do anything, such as smashing, looting, and burning.

 Just like what Qingyuan said, you can’t live anymore, so why do you care if you are in the territory of the gods?

However, there are times when burning, smashing, and looting is not something you can do just by being violent, especially when it comes to a very spiritual Taoist temple.

When they wanted to smash it, the stone they lifted hit their own feet. When they wanted to burn it, the fire jumped up on their clothes. When they wanted to pee at the Taoist temple gate, the two ounces of flesh under their crotch were like the quilt. It was like a knife, the pain was excruciating, not a drop of urine could come out, and when I wanted to curse, I couldn't make a sound.

All kinds of unexplainable weirdness made them dare not act recklessly. They could only kneel at the mountain gate and beg the Taoist temple miserably to save them from their suffering.

Qin Liuxi would definitely not let anyone in. After all, the Taoist temple had just been screened, and now only the Li family and her daughter were infected. If the others were allowed in, it would be troublesome if they brought the disease.

Oh, tell her that family members are compassionate. Sorry, she is not a naked monk, let alone a Buddha. She will only protect the people in the Taoist temple first.

Of course, she will not ignore the trouble at the foot of the mountain. After all, if the plague is not solved, the more people die, the more troublesome the disease will be. When the disease contaminates water sources and even crops, it will be the real purgatory.

So Qin Liuxi gathered people again, made some arrangements, prepared decoctions and manpower, and planned to go out of the mountain gate to rescue people. Before that, she drew a talisman for everyone to wear to prevent Soaked in filth.

Taoist Lin and the others felt like they had found a treasure. They did not expect that Qingpingguan would have such a good thing.

Qin Liuxi was a little suspicious about the people at the foot of the mountain who were infected with the disease and died so quickly, so he went to ask Li what happened when he came and who he had come into contact with at the foot of the mountain.

Mr. Li was already suffering from high fever. Although he drank the decoction, he was still weak and a little confused. When he was unconscious, Qin Liuxi forcibly stabbed him with a silver needle to wake him up. He said: "No..."

"A dead person has appeared at the foot of the mountain, and the government has sent people to surround it to prevent entry and exit. Do you think I will throw you out?"

"No." Mrs. Li shuddered, shook her head, bit the tip of her tongue, the pain made her sober up a little, and said: "We didn't take the initiative to contact him. When we were going up the mountain, a refugee came over. He pulled Ying'er and wanted to tease her, but Ying'er seemed to have grabbed him."

Qin Liuxi clicked his tongue.

 This is really karma.

Qin Liuxi saw that her breathing was rapid and her heartbeat was also the same, so he gave her a few needles. After careful consideration, he added two more herbs to the original prescription, and added cypress leaves and Guanyin bark to the decoction.

But when she left the courtyard, she suddenly felt something and turned around. Two souls floated out of the place where Miss Li lived alone. One was wearing a long hat that said "Everyone is here" and his hand was wrapped with a soul charm chain. The other one is Miss Li.

So fast?

Qin Liuxi was a little stunned. Although he saw her lifeless face, he didn't expect that she would not be able to survive a day. This was even after she had been given medicine and acupuncture.

Then I came to see her face ugly, saying: "Big, adult, just act as a life and death book."

 “Well, let’s go.”

"Okay." Laidu was overjoyed. After he came to his senses, he said, "You don't care?"

He was in a panic when he came, fearing that Qin Liuxi would stop him from seducing her. After all, it was her territory. If he seduced her here, what would be the same as slapping her in the face?

But I didn’t expect that the Master Guanzhu would be so easy to talk to.

"Life or death is her fate. I'm not ignoring her. You can go ahead." Qin Liuxi waved his hand.

Laidu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Just try your best. If you are young, go ahead. You still have to collect a few more souls."

Qin Liuxi's face darkened and he asked: "In this large area like mine? Is it also because of the plague?"

 Lai Du Lai Lai revealed something cryptically: "Yes, you have to be prepared."

  Qin Liuxi’s head was pounding after hearing this, which meant that many people would die.

After greeting each other, they hurriedly pulled Miss Li’s new soul away.

Qin Liuxi stood outside the courtyard for a while, then turned back and said a few words to Mr. Li. After a while, a mournful cry broke out in the house. The sound spread to other Taoist temples, making people panic. .

No matter how reluctant Li was to leave, Qin Liuxi burned the body as he said before and put the ashes in a small urn, but lit an ever-burning lamp for her in the Taoist temple.

She didn't have much time to comfort Mrs. Li, so she asked Qingyuan to keep a close eye on her condition, so she led the rest of the Taoist priests out of the mountain gate, carrying with them the prepared preventive decoction and black plum and three bean drinks. As soon as the gate of Taoist Temple opened, some people wanted to rush in. Qin Liuxi waved his sleeves, and those people were blown out by an invisible hurricane. They couldn't help but look at her in horror.

"Without permission, who dares to trespass?" Qin Liuxi looked at those people coldly and said: "Qingping Temple is not as merciful as Buddhism. If you let you act wild, you will be indifferent and will only chant Amitabha. In our Taoist sect, who dares to act wild? He is so impudent, don’t blame the poor Taoist for sacrificing him to heaven!”

“You, you dare? You are a monk!” Someone shouted: “You are just threatening us.”

"Why don't I dare? There is an epidemic here now, and I don't know how many people will be infected and how many people will die. It is not without alchemists to sacrifice people to the sky to pray for blessings and ask the King of Medicine to give elixir to survive this disaster. Anyway, there is no such thing. There are effective medicines to treat this disease. Sooner or later, everyone will die. It is better to sacrifice one or two for others and pray to the gods for blessing. Maybe the gods heard it, showed mercy, and actually gave the medicine, then everyone will be saved. Who is that? , the one with a bald head, stop hiding, it’s you, why don’t you sacrifice yourself for everyone and let me sacrifice you to the sky?”

As soon as these words fell, everyone's faces changed, and they were afraid to speak out like quails. The one who was named even hid in the crowd, wishing he had never opened his mouth.

"Are you all honest? If you are honest, just step back and get your bowl. Come and make a bowl of medicinal soup to drink. Then wait for me to wait for the pulse. If there is no one who has contracted the disease yet, first treat it with the infected person in one place. Separate those who are sick. Similarly, I advise you to report it immediately if you find something wrong with the people around you, such as fever, vomiting, chills and shortness of breath. Because this disease develops very quickly and spreads quickly, so if you don’t want to die, it’s best to You should be more vigilant, and if you have symptoms, I also advise you to take the initiative to isolate yourself, and we will do our best to treat you, so as not to harm others or yourself."

 “How do you know it’s such a disease?”

“Because I just burned a corpse, and it’s like this. Do you still want to come in and watch?” Qin Liuxi sneered.

Everyone was shocked: "There are also Taoist temples? No, what kind of plague is this? If you know, tell us."

"The plague broke out in Lijiatun, Annan. Most of the people who died were infected by people who came over there." Qin Liuxi did not hide it.

Someone listened and looked horrified: "The plague, it's really a plague. Wow, are we all going to die? They are all guarding the foot of the mountain and not letting us go. We will die sooner or later, right? Just like the plague broke out in the past, even if there is no The disease will also burn you to death! I don’t want to die, wuwu.”

Fear spread quickly like a plague, the panic became louder and louder, the cries became louder and louder, and the commotion became more difficult to quell than before.

Jingle bell.

A bell rang, and the ringing sounded softly, like a sweet spring flowing through, seeming to soak in all the anxiety, making people's hearts gradually calm down.

Taoist Master Lin and the others stared at the Sanqing Bell in Qin Liuxi's hands, their eyes shining brightly. It was the Sanqing Bell, and the ringing of the bell actually contained Taoist meaning. If the situation hadn't been wrong, they would have wanted to sit down and meditate.

Qin Liuxi rang the bell a few times. Seeing that the commotion had calmed down, he immediately winked at Daoist Lin.

 Everything unfolds in an orderly manner.

Some of the refugees saw Qin Liuxi and the others covering their mouths and noses with cloth towels, so they followed suit and tore off their clothes to cover them. Others saw that the Taoist priest was too busy and checked his pulse to confirm that he was not sick. He took the initiative to help ladle soup and send it out, and there were also strong and healthy people who took the initiative to help maintain order, separating the sick and the not sick.

 In the Taoist temple, decoctions and medicines are being cooked and delivered in a steady stream.

Qin Liuxi personally went to see the dead person and confirmed that it was the plague, which was also burned. As for someone who didn't want to see his loved ones burned after death and stopped him, she didn't bother to reason and just let him guard the body. , since you want to die, just hold each other and die together.

This powerful operation can scare people to death, and also severely intimidate those who want to say no.

Damn it, this temple owner of Qingping Temple is probably not a ruthless bandit, he is too fierce!

Just when Qin Liuxi was leading people to calm down the area, she also waited for her parents from Licheng City, who happened to be an acquaintance.

Qin Liuxi looked at Wang Zheng, who had grown a beard, and was a little surprised.

Wang Zheng looked haggard, his eyes were dark, and he hadn't slept for an unknown amount of time. When he saw her, he felt like he saw the great savior. He stepped forward and took her hand, and said excitedly: "God will not stop me, you are indeed in the Taoist temple. Your disciple really did his fortune-telling correctly. Master, please save the head on my neck and save the common people."

Qin Liuxi threw his hand away in disgust: "Just talk, what are you doing with your hands and feet? You haven't said anything yet, why are you here? Are you the parent official of Licheng?"

"No, I'm just acting temporarily. The previous county magistrate was arrested for corruption, and a new magistrate hasn't been appointed yet, so I am acting temporarily. By the way, I am now the county magistrate of Yucheng next door."

“Lijiatun seems to be a village under the rule of Yucheng. You just said that I was right about my fortune telling. Have you seen him?” Qin Liuxi narrowed his eyes and asked.

Ningzhou Prefecture has four counties, among which Annan Prefecture has four cities. Yucheng is one of them. Although Lijiatun is classified as Yucheng, because it is only fifty miles away from Annan Prefecture, more people like to call it Annan Lijiatun.

Wang Zhengdao: "If I hadn't seen it and heard that the plague had appeared here, how could I have dared to leave the other side and come here? It was your disciple who said you were in the temple now, so I rushed here non-stop. Since you can Speaking of Lijiatun, do you know all about the tragic situation in Lijiatun?"

"The mother and daughter who escaped from Lijiatun are in my Taoist temple. No, there is only one left now." Qin Liuxi said: "I should have guessed that since Lijiatun has been sealed, once there is a large-scale epidemic here, The plague will definitely be banned, but I didn’t expect it to be so soon. Was it your idea?”

"Yes and no, if there is an outbreak of plague in a place, it is right to seal it off and isolate it. This also prevents a bigger outbreak." Wang Zhengdao: "Although I mentioned closing down the village and isolating it, the measures must be gentle, otherwise it will cause great civil unrest. Trouble. But the plague is coming on too fast, and many people have died over there. The prefect wants to..."

He glanced around and whispered: "No matter whether the people are dead or not, he wants to burn all the people who are already sick."

Qin Liuxi's pupils narrowed: "He dares, this is killing!"

Wang Zheng's face turned bitter and he said: "It's true that it's killing evil, but compared to spreading the word on a large scale, even if he uses this method, he can still find a reason."

It is a great deal to have people from one village die and live in another county.

Even if this move will be criticized by others, when the memorial is submitted, someone will definitely say something about it.

 Human life in a plague is the least valuable!

Qin Liuxi was speechless and said: "It has not reached this point. The dead will be burned, but those who are still alive will have a glimmer of hope."

"Master, you are a Taoist and a doctor, with powerful spells and extraordinary medical skills. Whether they can save them or not depends on you!" Wang Zheng said eagerly: "So, I came here specifically to ask this time, do you have any medicine?"

 Qin Liuxi: “…” (End of this chapter)
