Chapter 55: Master of the Organ

When his colleagues saw him being chased out, they laughed and said, "Who did I think he was? Isn't he the benefactor of the Lord?"

"It's fine that we ordinary yamen runners can't see the Lord, but how come we can't see you, the lifesaver?

" "Hahaha, what lifesaver? It's so funny. The Lord doesn't want to see him at all. In a few days, he will be completely abandoned by the Lord."

Facing the ridicule of his colleagues, he could only change his clothes silently and walked out of the county government sadly. Unexpectedly, he was blocked by Gongsun Yue.

"Don't be afraid."

Gan Fanren also walked out of the alley with a gentle and polite attitude.

"We just want to ask you something."

"I want to ask you about the rat extermination. Do you have any good ideas?" "

The young yamen runner looked at Gan Fanren warily, his eyes struggling and dodging.

"The county magistrate will not help. I heard from my colleagues that he seems to be leaving with his family."

Gongsun Yue thought that the county magistrate of Mubei was shameless enough. He ignored the lives of the people for the sake of profit and raised the price of grain. Unexpectedly, the county magistrate of Xiaoye City in Jiananguan was not much worse.

He was finally able to open his eyes. He

saw more people and realized that there were all kinds of beasts.

"Leave?"

"As a parent official, he actually wants to abandon the people who are suffering from the epidemic and leave alone?"

Seeing Gongsun Yue getting angry, the young yamen runner nodded in panic.

"Although those colleagues are a little... a little bad, they are well-informed and should not be wrong. "

Gan Fanren was not surprised by this result.

During the day, there were more dead people on the streets than living people, but at night there were more signs of living people.

Every household was attacked by the plague, but the doctors were scattered, obviously without anyone leading them.

It was not surprising that such a confused county magistrate would run away.

Gan Fanren pondered and said, "So, I'm afraid we can't get the help of the county magistrate."

The little yamen runner nodded: "Without the order of the county magistrate, those yamen runners will not help."

"But..."

"But I have a way."

He nervously reached out and picked at the corner of his clothes.

"My ancestors have been craftsmen for generations. I have made a batch of exquisite mechanical mice, which may be able to help spread the medicine. "

It's just that my family is poor, and there are not many machine rats, about thirty or so."

"Machine rats?"

Although Gan Fanren had never seen one, he knew that things with the word "machine" in them were extremely sophisticated.

He didn't expect that this young yamen runner could make such a powerful thing at such a young age.

"Then I'll trouble you, little brother."

The young yamen runner waved his hands embarrassedly: "No, no trouble."

The young yamen runner led the way and took everyone to a thatched house. An old figure was sitting at the door waiting quietly.

Seeing the young yamen runner, the old man staggered to his feet.

"Is Aci back?"

"Grandma, how are mother and brother now? "

"Your brother hasn't eaten anything for the whole day and has been running a fever. He keeps talking nonsense. Your mother is in good health and can even force herself to eat something."

The old lady burst into tears: "God is really blind. Why doesn't this disease come to me? I am so old and I should have lived enough. But your mother and brother are still young."

The old lady was crying, and suddenly saw Gan Fanren and others, and hurriedly wiped her tears.

"These are your friends, come in quickly, I will cook some dishes for you."

"Old man is not busy, we come here to bother you because we have something to ask for."

"I just heard from you that your family is sick, but is it an epidemic?"

The old man shook his head: "I don't know, I wanted to see a doctor, but the doctors in the city are busy and have no time to see patients. "

Gan Fanren suggested, "Can I go and take a look?"

Gan Fanren tightened his mask and followed the old man into the house. As

men and women should not touch each other, Gan Fanren did not check on the body of the young yamen runner's mother, but walked straight to the boy lying on the bed.

He lifted the boy's collar and took a look. Seeing that his skin was already decayed, his breathing quickened, and he had a feeling that it was as he expected.

"It's an epidemic."

"Hurry, pack up all the valuables and come with me immediately."

"Su Baishou set up a civil epidemic hospital to treat epidemic patients free of charge."

Hearing that it was an epidemic, the young yamen runner and the old man did not dare to delay and packed up their things in a panic.

"Young yamen runner, I'll ask my brother Li Zhi to take your mother and your brother to the civil epidemic hospital. Can you stay and take us to find the organ rat? "

The young yamen runner took a look at Li Zhi who was helping to pack up, and felt a little worried.

Li Zhi looked big and strong, with a full beard, and he really didn't look like a good guy.

It was okay to say that he was a bandit, but he really couldn't believe that he was a doctor.

"The machine rat is in my room, it won't take long to find it, you wait for me, we'll go together. "

Gan Fanren followed the gaze of the yamen runner and saw Li Zhi. He guessed that the young yamen runner was worried about them and felt a little helpless.

Although Li Zhi was obedient, his appearance really affected everyone's impression of him.

Noticing Gan Fanren's gaze, Li Zhi showed a silly smile. This smile was originally quite honest, but with the blessing of his beard, it looked a bit scary, and the scary look was mixed with a little bit of vulgarity.

In summary, it is better not to smile.

"Well, thank you for your trouble, little brother."

Gan Fanren was shocked when he saw the machine rat.

"Is this a machine rat?"

The appearance is too real, and it looks no different from a real mouse!

"Yeah."

The little yamen servant pursed his lips shyly: "When my grandma brought me tea, she thought I was playing with a mouse and beat me up."

"Can this thing really deliver medicine?"

"Yes."

The little yamen servant pulled the tail of the mechanical mouse and wound the spring. After putting it on the ground, the mechanical mouse started to walk on its own. Its buttocks separated from its tail and turned into a thin silk thread.

The mechanical mouse actually walked out the door and walked two or three hundred meters before stopping.

At this time, he pulled the silk thread still in his hand, and the mechanical mouse was pulled back.

"Although the bureau rats can't walk far and can't cross the threshold into the house, every household is short of food now. If we can mix food with rat poison and sprinkle it at the door or on the street, I think it will attract many rats."

Gan Fanren and Gongsun Yue looked at each other.

"This thing is really exquisite. Although it is not very useful, it can help us a lot."

"If the bureau rats don't work, I have another thing that may help you."

The little yamen runner took them to the corner of the room.

He moved several strange objects from the corner, placed them in front of Gan Fanren, and assembled them together in front of him.
