657 Someone is chasing me

The next morning.

Huo Zhi's condition was gratifying. He didn't vomit or have a fever, and he ate normally. He was just a little weak, but otherwise he was just like a normal person.

Ping An grinned.

Sun Sicheng glanced at his excited disciple and said calmly, "Ma Huang Tang may be useful, just like Wuwei Tang was for the people of Fangjia Village, but it may not be the best way to truly solve this plague."

Mr. Shi San said, "Can't you just make the child happy?"

Xiao Ping'an's smile is so happy.

Sun Sicheng is so strict and really unlovable.

"Master, I will take Lin Feng and Xiao Wu to Fangjia Village. Please have someone send the prescription to Master Yuanzheng. You should not go back to the city. I will come back here to see Huo Zhi at noon."

"There really is no time to wait. Otherwise, waiting for another two days would be the safest option. I still have to go back in person. I came here in a hurry yesterday and didn't even tell Master Huang.

I'm relieved that you're fine here. The Dean has not been in good health recently, and these things have happened in the city. It would be bad if I didn't go back."

Master Shi San knew that Ping An was worried, so he thought about it and said, "I'd better go back with your master."

"Thank you, Mr. Shi San."

A quarter of an hour later, the master and his disciples split into two groups, one went back to the city, and the other went to Fangjia Village.

It is said that Master Hu did not dare to go back to the village these days. Once he returned, he could not leave. If he stayed in the city, he could keep an eye on the movements of the imperial doctors sent by the court to see if they could develop any useful prescriptions.

He can also buy food, daily necessities including medicine and send them back to the village. This way his family and the villagers can benefit as well, and he can then take care of his wife and two children.

This morning, he arrived at the village entrance with five-flavor soup and some food, only to find his cousin Hu Songlin waiting there early.

"Songyun, your wife is seriously ill. Dabao also has a high fever, and Meihua can't get up. My mother has tried everything to help her, but it doesn't work. You should think of a solution quickly."

Hu Songyun's hands trembled, and his legs went limp. "Cousin, here is the five-flavor soup. I'll get one first. I think the village will distribute it today. It's a recipe that the eldest son and Master Ping'an came up with. I heard it's useful. Let my wife make it first, and I'll go find a solution now."

Hu Songyun turned around and drove the mule cart towards the city. If something happened to his wife and children, what was the point of him living?

Inside the inn.

"What, Master Ping'an took Mr. Huo away? The eldest master chased after him yesterday?" Mr. Huang's voice broke.

He was also very distressed when Huo Dongjia fell ill. No matter what happened over the years, Huo Dongjia had always done his best. This time, he donated money and effort, and donated a lot of medicine. Who knew that he would be infected with the disease so soon? He could only have him admitted to the West Ward and ordered the doctor to give him medicine as soon as possible.

But how could Master Ping An take someone away? He was a young marquis, the top scholar of the Sixth Imperial Examination, and he couldn't let anything happen here.

No matter how good a friend is, it’s not worth risking your life, right?

The same goes for the eldest son. No matter how good a disciple is, it is not worth pursuing him, right?

Zhu Yuanzheng also sighed. Now that things had come to this, he could only try to say things in a nicer way.

"Ping An felt that long-distance diagnosis was still inaccurate, so he took Huo Zhi with him, partly because they were friends, and more importantly, to ensure accurate medication. The situation inside the city was still relatively good, but the victims at the city gates might not be able to hold on.

Sicheng also told me the same thing before he left. He said that once the medicine on Huo Zhi was effective, he would send the prescription over immediately. My lord, they are risking their lives to serve the people here. "

Lord Huang blushed. He had just blamed Master Ping'an for being ignorant. Zhu Yuanzheng said that this was indeed true.

Only by observing, smelling, asking and palpating at a close range can we come up with a prescription that is truly suitable for the disease.

Wang Qing's eyes turned red.

"Sir, how about I go to Ping An, maybe I can help him."

Zhu Yuanzheng shook his head: "I don't know your relationship, but Ping An cares about you very much. If you go at this time, he will be distracted because of you."

…

Hu Songyun arrived at the city gate.

Captain Fang and his men were guarding the city gate.

"Master Hu, where did you come from? The prefect has issued an order today that people from outside the city must have a guarantor to enter the city. No one can be let in easily."

"Brother Fang, I just came from the village entrance and have not yet entered the village. There are soldiers guarding the entrance.

My wife and children are seriously ill. Please, Brother Fang, be my guarantor. I want to find the eldest master to save my family."

A yamen runner nearby said, "Master Ping An took away the sick Huo Dongjia last night. When the eldest master heard about it, he followed him after breakfast. They are not in the city anymore."

"Brother, you said that Master Ping'an and the eldest son went to Fangjia Village?"

The yamen runner only now realized that he had spoken too quickly.

Master Hu has gone to find him. Can Master Ping An go to Hu Village to save people? People who are seriously ill are most likely to infect others.

Hu Songyun ignored the thoughts of Captain Fang and the yamen runners, turned around and ran towards the mule cart. At this moment, all his thoughts were on how to persuade the eldest master and his disciples to save his wife and children.

Look, Master Hu ran away like the wind.

The yamen runner lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Captain Fang, I spoke too quickly."

Captain Fang sighed. What could be said about him?

Although Master Hu is tall and strong and has a fierce look, he is actually a pretty good person.

Master Hu ran all the way and when he arrived at the entrance of Fangjia Village, there was no one in the tent. After asking the soldiers guarding the village, he learned that Master Ping'an had just left for a while and returned to the temporary house on the side of the road. The eldest master did not come today at all.

The soldier also said that the patients in the village were almost recovering, and no one with the epidemic had died in the past two days.

Hu Songyun turned around and chased after him.

Ping An in the carriage closed his eyes and thought about something.

Today, the village chief brought three people here. The one with the most serious illness can now walk on his own, proving that the five-flavor soup is still effective.

When he asked whether to change the recipe, the village chief immediately shook his head and just wanted the five-flavor soup, which would be enough after drinking it for two more days.

Ping An, Xiao Wu and Lin Feng spent an hour preparing two days' worth of medicine for the villagers, some of which had been prepared yesterday.

When handing the medicine to the village chief, he still asked why Dacheng didn't come today?

The village chief then told him that after returning home yesterday, Dacheng's mother stopped taking medicine and collapsed.

Later I heard from others that she felt very uncomfortable in her stomach and since it couldn't be cured, she didn't want to suffer anymore.

There was a village doctor in their village, who said the child only had a few days to live, so the child stayed by the bed and refused to go anywhere.

If it was any other disease, he would go and think of a way to treat it, but there is no good treatment for cancer in modern times. In this era where there is nothing, what can he do?

What’s more, the person has contracted the epidemic and his body is almost ruined.

"Master, there is a mule cart chasing us from behind." Xiao Wudao.

Ping'an lifted the door curtain and saw a mule cart running fast not far away, and the driver kept waving his hands.

This is too dangerous.

"Lin Feng, stop the car on the side of the road. I want to see who wants to see me."
