Chapter 224 Plague Rampant in Wushuang City

The army rested for a night and headed for the city nearest to the border before dawn the next day.

Halfway through the journey, he met an official who came to ask for help. Looking at the huge army, he was surprised and happy, but did not dare to get close.

He shouted to the army: "Master Imperial Master, Your Highness the Crown Prince, please stay. The plague is rampant in Wushuang City and has reached a point where it is out of control. The county magistrate should close the city gates immediately and not allow the people to escape from the city, lest the plague spread to other cities and cause disaster to other people."

"But due to the rampant plague, most of the people in the city have been infected with the plague. Although there are decoctions prepared by doctors, the cause of the disease has not been found. In addition, due to the shortage of medicine and food, the county magistrate ordered me to leave the city to report the news and ask for help."

"Please, Your Highness the Crown Prince and the Imperial Master, save Wushuang City. The people in the city can no longer hold on."

After saying this, the officer knelt down heavily with tears in his eyes. His heart was filled with grief, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

His parents died of this plague, and their bodies were burned to ashes yesterday.

From now on, he has no home.

When the officers and soldiers heard this, their faces suddenly changed, their breathing became heavy, and their brows were furrowed so much that they almost pinched a fly to death.

Wushuang City was clearly fine before they set out for the border, so how come the plague suddenly broke out?

They don't believe that there is no conspiracy here. They think it must be a conspiracy of Dayang Kingdom.

In a short while, Nangong Yu, holding Luo Ranran, brought the prince and Lian Jin to the officials.

The official looked weak and pale, and kept backing away, fearing that he would infect Nangong Yu and the others with the plague. "No, ahem, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Excellency the Imperial Master, please don't come near me."

Nangong Yu gave the officer a soothing look, "Don't worry, little brother. We are immune to all poisons and the plague cannot enter our bodies."

Immune to all poisons?

The officer was shocked. Is there really a physique in this world that is immune to all poisons?

But he still didn't dare to be careless. He was just a small official. If the plague was transmitted to the prince and others because of him, he would be guilty of a serious crime and deserved to die!

Just as the official stood there in a daze with his thoughts wandering, Luo Ranran walked up to him.

"Hey, take the pill and your body will return to normal."

The officer quickly came back to his senses, his eyes almost popped out, "You, little girl, when did you come to me?"

The officer was so frightened that his soul floated in the air. He thought he could take a rope and hang himself on a tree in the southeast.

Luo Ranran was very puzzled.

[Oh my, am I really that scary? This is a medicine that is not available in this world. If it weren't for the fact that you lost your parents, I would not be willing to give it to you. 】

The childish voice was clearly heard by the officer. He was shocked and horrified, looking at Luo Ranran with burning eyes.

Was it this little girl who was speaking just now?

But she clearly didn't say a word, could it be that he heard her inner voice? Also, how did she know that he had lost his parents?

Looking at the dazed official, Lian Jin shook her head helplessly and said to him, "My dear, the one in front of you is none other than Princess Zhaoyang of our Tianqi Kingdom."

Princess Zhaoyang! ! !

The officer's pupils trembled and he fell to his knees with a thud. "Wow, Lord County Magistrate, our Wushuang City is saved."

Princess Zhaoyang is a sign of good fortune from heaven. With her around, we will be able to overcome the danger and survive this plague safely.

"Woo woo, this little one pays homage to Princess Zhaoyang."

It can be said that Luo Ranran's reputation is more useful than that of Emperor Luo and the Crown Prince, and the people believe in her more. After all, when she was born, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky, which shocked the people of the entire Apocalypse.

Luo Ranran sighed. She didn’t like seeing others cry because it would make her feel uncomfortable.

So, she forcefully stuffed the pill into the officer's mouth and said, "Don't cry, don't worry, with this princess here, your Wushuang City will soon be able to return to normal."

The official cried with joy, "Wow, thank you Princess Zhaoyang, thank you Princess Zhaoyang, thank you Princess Zhaoyang..."

He was not very good at speaking, so he could only express his gratitude by thanking the princess over and over again.

Luo Ranran stopped the official from continuing to thank him. What she was more concerned about at this moment was the plague in Wushuang City.

"What's your name? What's the situation in Wushuang City now? When did you get infected with the plague? Have you found anything unusual?"

The official wiped away his tears and hurriedly replied respectfully: "In reply to Princess Zhaoyang, my name is Tian Xiaosong, I am sixteen years old, and I am currently working as an official in the county government."

"The situation in Wushuang City is already very serious. Except for a very small number of people who have not yet shown symptoms, the rest of the people have been infected with the plague."

"It was about five days ago."

"At that time, the people in the city were vomiting and having diarrhea. They went to the clinic to see a doctor because they couldn't stand it any more. But they didn't expect that almost all the people who came to see the doctor were in the same situation. Some were in serious condition and began to develop red spots with pus on their bodies."

"Not only that, some of them started to have high fevers, their skin turned purple and red, and they were almost delirious."

"When the doctor at the clinic saw this, he was shocked and reported the situation to the county magistrate. The county magistrate immediately brought the doctor to check and concluded that the people were infected with the plague."

"Then, the county magistrate immediately quarantined the people infected with the plague and ordered the city gates to be closed, fearing that the people in the city would run out and spread the plague to people in other cities."

Luo Ranran couldn't help but praise, "Your county magistrate is quite courageous. This princess deeply admires him."

Tian Xiaosong couldn't help but smile, "Yes, the county magistrate is a good official. The people of Wushuang City are proud of him. It's a pity that good people don't get good rewards. The county magistrate..."

Tian Xiaosong frowned and sighed, "Princess Zhaoyang, let's not talk about the county magistrate's affairs for now, let's talk about this plague first."

Luo Ranran blinked and said, "Well, go on."

Tian Xiaosong lowered his eyes and said slowly: "After the city gates were closed, the county magistrate immediately took people to check the situation from house to house. Unexpectedly, the situation was more serious than he thought. Except for the people in the north of the city, almost every household of the rest of the people was infected by the plague."

"Because there were too many people, it was impossible to quarantine them in a centralized manner. The county magistrate had no choice but to order them to stay in their houses and not go anywhere."

"He summoned the city's doctors and the people who volunteered to help, to treat the people infected with the plague and to prepare medicine... and so on."

"Although Wushuang City is close to the border, there are more than 10,000 people in the entire city. The daily medicinal materials and food are a big problem. In addition, Wushuang City is poor and the grain production is scarce. Every household does not have extra food."

"They persisted for five days, and more than 2,000 people died. The county magistrate was extremely sad. He didn't want the people of Wushuang City to bring the plague to other cities, nor did he want the people to die one after another."
