Chapter 59: Entering the City to Treat the Plague



In that instant, Lin Jinyue had already thought of n kinds of response plans. What should she do if she was caught? What if her family accidentally entered the traditional space...

Seeing that his daughter was not in a hurry, Lin Shucheng boldly said, "General, we really can't delay this. My nephew..."

The next moment, a sword gleaming with cold light was placed against his neck.

For a moment, Lin Shucheng's legs went weak.

Lin Fugui was even more frightened: "Let's not take those medicines anymore."

Lin Jinyue looked at the cold sword against his father's neck and was stunned for a moment. This was the bad thing in ancient times. If an official came and killed you at random, you would have no place to complain.

Lin Jinyue said cautiously: "Big brother, don't be angry, please let my father go first, my mother knows some medical skills, maybe she can help."

As soon as these words were spoken, several of Gu Shaoxu's men looked over and sized these people up and down.

Although Lin Jinyue has a good temperament, what kind of clothes is she wearing? There are more than a dozen patches on it and it is tattered. And he has an unshaven face. How could her mother know medical skills?

How is that possible!

This guy is really talking nonsense. He said that a peasant woman knows medicine and he is confident that her mother can provide help to their officers and soldiers. Why doesn't he say that he can go to heaven?

Many soldiers had disdain in their eyes.

Lin Jinyue was still thinking about how to gain the trust of the military commander in front of her, at least she had to get the medicine.

Unexpectedly, the group from Linjia Village had already been discovered by the patrol soldiers.

The patrolman was wrapped up tightly, even wearing a face scarf. Seeing Lin Goudan was terrified, it took him a while to react and he shouted, "Boss, there are two people here who have the plague! We have to burn them too!"

The next moment, Lin Jinyue and her group were surrounded by several soldiers again. Dozens of soldiers came and arrested all the people in Linjia Village.

Lin Fugui was extremely anxious.

Lin Goudan is his biological son, but that is nothing compared to the lives of so many people in the village. If his son causes everyone to die this time, he will not be able to rest in peace even as a ghost.

In a hurry, Lin Jinyue saluted to the leading officer Gu Shao and said, "Sir, we really don't want to cause trouble for you. We also know that if the disease is allowed to spread, the consequences will be disastrous."

When Lin Jinyue spoke, the sword was still against her father's neck. If it had moved an inch forward, he would have been dead.

She looked calm and neither humble nor arrogant, but she was really anxious in her heart.

Lin Jinyue continued: "Why not let my mother give it a try? It will only take about two quarters of an hour. If it works, the whole city won't have to be burned down."

Gu Shao stared at her for a while. The little girl was less than ten years old. She was different from those refugees. Except for some mud on her feet, her body was clean.

All the refugees looked pale and thin, except her, who had a rosy complexion and a little baby fat on her cheeks.

Gu Shao heard from their accent that they were from the north, probably fleeing famine. This group of people could think of coming to Lingnan, and they were able to raise the girl so well under such difficult conditions. Gu Shao felt that this group of people was not simple.

He retracted his sword and said to his men, "Lock them up first."

Then he said to Jiang Yun: "Come with me."

Jiang Yun went there with the silver needles and the emergency medicine kit that she had prepared long ago and left on the road.

Lin Jinyue also hurried over to help her mother.

Seeing Gu Shao walk in without wearing any protective gear, Lin Jinyue handed him a mask and said, "Sir, put it on. It can prevent infection."

Gu Shao stared at the mask for a long time. The mask in his hand was different from Lin Jinyue's white mask. The mask he took was made of linen, with two layers of thickness. No one knew what was sewn in the middle. There was a smell of medicine on it, probably because it had been soaked in medicine.

Gu Shao put on the mask and asked, "You guys are dressed so strangely, is it for epidemic prevention?"

Lin Jinyue nodded.

This group of people all wrapped their heads tightly with cloth towels and wore masks. Gu Shao thought it was some unique outfit from somewhere.

It seems that this mother and daughter really have some skills.

Gu Shao asked a few more questions: "Why is this? And why can this mask prevent the epidemic?"

Jiang Yun interrupted: "Where is the patient?"

Gu Shao: ...

The subordinates behind him were also stunned. Are these mother and daughter so angry?

Do they know who the man in front of them is? He is the eldest son of the Gu family in Kyoto. He won the lawsuit at the age of ten and was personally marked by the emperor as "unparalleled".

Last year, Prince Jing was planning a rebellion, so Gu Shao asked for permission to come to Lingnan to make arrangements. Now, at the age of seventeen, he has been granted the title of General Zhennan, first rank.

How dare this woman turn her face away?

Gu Shao's men scolded: "Do you know that..."

This time it was Lin Jinyue who interrupted: "Don't come over here. There are no masks or face towels."

The only thing missing is sticking the words "Don't make trouble" on his forehead.

These deputy generals are usually second only to the emperor and above everyone else. How could they have ever suffered such humiliation?

But Gu Shao made a gesture, indicating that they should leave first.

Lin Jinyue and Jiang Yun didn't think so much. Looking at the tragic situation in the city, it was not an exaggeration to say that there were corpses everywhere. Then, looking at these soldiers, none of them were wearing any protective clothing. Aren't they just delivering food?

Jiang Yun suddenly developed an occupational disease and did not consider that there was anything wrong with her attitude.

There were people lying on the ground outside, and the doctor said they were the kind that could not be saved. Gu Shao originally wanted to take her into the house to see if he could give her a try.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yun squatted on a person who looked half-dead on the side of the road.

Gu Shao was about to speak when he saw her take out a silver needle and start pricking at a few acupuncture points. Then she stuffed a pill into the man's mouth.

Then he immediately retreated several meters away.

She asked Gu Shao: "Where is the pharmacy? I have a prescription that can cure the plague, but I'm still missing a few herbs."

Gu Shaoyu called the old doctor who was treating the patient and said, "You can ask him."

Jiang Yun wrote a special prescription based on the condition of the critically ill patient and asked someone to boil it.

The man on the ground was already half dead, lying on the ground like a corpse. After Jiang Yun gave him a few injections and fed him a pill, he began to vomit continuously.

After vomiting, he was able to open his eyes, support himself and sit on the ground, then vomit again after a while.

Jiang Yun looked at the doctors inside and thought they had little experience in epidemic prevention. They were all wearing thin face towels that didn't protect them at all, so she said, "We've asked someone to find cotton cloth and cotton to make masks. Remember to boil them in boiling water before wearing them. They can only be worn after they have been thoroughly disinfected."

"Also, try to arrange these seriously ill patients, as long as they still have a breath, to the same place, and arrange those with mild symptoms together. Although I have prescriptions, I need to check their pulse first and make adjustments based on their conditions. I will arrange people to do this after the masks are ready."
