Chapter 120 Test of Celestial Phenomenon Order
When they arrived in Le County that day, they were surrounded on the pretext of preventing the spread of the epidemic.
The key point is that there was no movement in the past two days.
Moreover, the sudden disappearance of Yellow Leaf made her even more certain that this was most likely another conspiracy against the Luo family!
Someone wanted to use this incident to trap all of them to death in Le County.
Liang He's breathing stagnated: "...Are you sure?"
Zhu Mingqing said coldly, "But we still remember vividly how they tried to intercept us in Zhending Prefecture, don't we? And all the yellow leaves have disappeared. I can't imagine anyone else behind this except Governor Liang."
Liang He frowned and said, "If that's the case, our current situation is very bad!"
Zhu Mingqing took the prescription and said, "I don't lack the variegated yellow, but I only have one sack of this scissors. I have to send someone to buy some."
She had not collected the corresponding seeds at the beginning, otherwise she would have dug them directly from the fairy palace.
Once the people are cured, the county magistrate will no longer be able to stop them under the pretext of an epidemic!
Of course, these are all ideal situations. If the other party really uses all means and sends people to kill, then we can only take it one step at a time and see what happens.
However, when Zhu Mingqing thought about these people's little tricks, he was really fed up with it!
I thought that Boss Qin could at least delay the other party for a few days, but I didn’t expect him to be so useless!
Time and time again, do you really think they have no temper?
Liang He said: "I will send someone to guard these herbs tonight."
At first, the inn in the north of the city was not big, just enough for Liang He and others to live in, but if the people from Wuxing's escort agency were added, there would be no extra space.
In order to save money, they squeezed into a dilapidated temple in the suburbs for a night.
Now that he had been waiting for a long time and no one showed up, Wu Xing went straight into the city and only then did he know what had happened in the north of the city.
grass!
He couldn't help but curse, this is an epidemic, once people are infected, they will die.
Wu Xing thought about it again and again, and was about to turn his horse around, deciding to just go home.
“Squeak…”
A pigeon suddenly flew from a distance and landed on his shoulder.
Wu Xing looked around and saw Mrs. Zhu leaning against the window on the second floor of the inn. She waved and pointed at the pigeon.
When I opened the note, two thousand and three large characters suddenly appeared before my eyes.
Wu Xing's desire to go home suddenly disappeared!
Although the one thousand taels was for buying medicinal herbs, Madam Zhu said that if they successfully bought the herbs, she would pay him an additional five hundred taels as a reward for their hard work, regardless of whether they could get out or not.
When the news was spread out from the city, everyone was a little hesitant to escape after hearing the first half. However, when there is a lot of money, there must be brave men. The twenty or so people present all raised their hands and said that they would buy the medicine and send it to the inn quietly before dark.
But asking all the pharmacies in the city was still far from enough.
Helplessly, the group thought about the nearby cities and went directly to other places to buy them. After all, one round trip a day was enough!
Inside the inn, the innkeeper was trembling with fear, fearing that he would also be infected with the plague.
When he heard that the guests living here wanted to use the backyard and kitchen to make medicine and could cure people's illnesses, he immediately agreed.
Everyone started to move. Because there were only a limited number of scissors, they worked hard for a whole day and could only cut enough for three hundred people.
"Ah, I'm so tired."
"I'm going blind."
"What's wrong with this county magistrate? He hasn't sent a doctor in yet. Doesn't he want to take care of us?"
At the end of the day, everyone collapsed on the ground exhausted and complained.
Seeing that Madam was still busy, Fen Tao hurried over to persuade her: "Madam, you should also take a rest for a while."
Zhu Mingqing finished boiling the last dose of medicine before he stood up and had someone send it out.
She twisted her stiff shoulders and asked, "No news from Wu Xing yet?"
Fen Tao shook her head and said doubtfully, "Could they have taken the money and run away?"
Zhu Mingqing said: "Don't be afraid, the monk may escape but the temple cannot."
However, even if the medicinal materials really arrive, the common people must be mobilized.
Although I don’t know how many people in the north of the city are sick, I have to feed everyone one portion just in case.
…
The county magistrate's mansion at this time.
After hearing the report from his subordinates, he found out that those people actually had medicine that could cure the disease.
The Le County Magistrate frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "I understand. You can go down first."
When he was the only one left in the room, he took out a letter and started reading it again. Thinking of the man who had just come from Zhending City, he made a secret decision in his heart.
So what if there is medicine.
It’s all the Luo family’s fault, they attracted too many people’s attention!
…
In the middle of the night, Zhu Mingqing was lying in bed, thinking about the people from the Wuxing Escort Agency. Maybe something really happened to them, otherwise there wouldn't be any news at all now.
But what could possibly happen?!
Forget it, she'll have to wait until tomorrow at the latest. If there's still no news, she'll have to find a time to sneak out and see if she can buy the herbs.
We can’t stay in Jizhou for another day!
Just as he was about to fall asleep, Zhu Mingqing thought of something, opened the window and looked at the sky.
The stars are shining brightly, and tomorrow should be a sunny day.
She took the pair of jade beads and prepared to test them outside the Immortal Palace. If they were successful here, then...
Doesn't this mean that she has mastered the weather?
Zhu Mingqing was a little excited for a moment, looking outside intently, silently chanting in his heart: Rain, rain...
A quarter of an hour later, there was no response.
She didn't believe it and tried again, but there was still no response.
"For the last time!" Zhu Mingqing snorted and continued to concentrate, but the starry sky was still bright.
She sighed and said, "It seems that it can only be used in the Immortal Palace."
The little world spirit was puzzled. This shouldn't be the case. Could it be due to the lack of spiritual energy?
…
And at this time the county magistrate's mansion.
The magistrate of Le County took out the letter that he had read more than ten times.
His tangled facial features were squeezed together.
"Why!"
"Sir, are you worried about what to do tonight?" A man in black clothes with his face covered suddenly said.
The magistrate of Le County closed his eyes and opened them again: "This is too sudden. At least give me some time to prepare."
The man in black curled his lips: "My Lord, what you want is suddenness. You can't give them any time to react."
The magistrate of Le County gritted his teeth and said, "Can't we leave Le County first? Even though Le County is a remote small county, it still has a population of 100,000, and the area north of the city occupies half of it."
It would be great if some of the people could be evacuated.
Otherwise, the population would drop sharply. An epidemic would be a minor issue, but a sudden fire would mean the end of his position.
The man in black looked at the other man touching his hat with reluctance and sneered in his heart, but said on the surface: "Don't worry, the master has arranged everything. As long as tonight is over, you can go to the capital city and live a good life."
