…
Soon, it was daybreak.
Emergency rescue is like putting out a fire, Jiuer did not delay.
Jiuer didn't bring Banxia this time. No matter how much Banxia looked at Jiuer, she insisted on not bringing her.
Jiuer didn't bring anyone else except the extremely professional team prepared by Butler Yan.
However, even if they moved quickly, by the time a large team was ready to leave the general's mansion, it was almost noon.
Those who were eyeing the general's mansion didn't want to say anything, and the team went straight out of the city.
But as luck would have it, Jiuer's team met the group of Saint Maiden Wu Hai again.
Hearing the devout worship and cheers around her, Jiuer in the carriage slightly lifted the window curtain and took a look outside.
There was also a carriage over there, but it was covered with white gauze on all sides.
Almost at the moment when Jiuer looked outside, the Saint Maiden of Wu Hai also raised her head slightly and looked over.
The two did not look at each other directly, but their eyes met across the crowd.
Jiu'er, who was in the dark carriage, curled the corners of her lips. This Wu Hai Saint is really sharp...
Soon, Jiuer lowered the window curtain and stopped looking.
Pingnan County is not far from Kyoto, but it is not close either.
Normally the journey would take about ten days, but Jiuer and his group rarely stopped to rest, thus shortening the time by more than half.
At 10 noon on the fourth day, Jiuer and others arrived at the outer city gate of Pingnan County.
If the gates of Pingnan County had not been closed and the city walls had not been heavily guarded, we would have been able to see the panic of an epidemic somewhere as we walked along.
It was as if the entire Pingnan County was cut off from the outside world.
When the leader of the accompanying guards took out a waist badge and held it up to show the people on the city gate, the city gate opened soon.
The soldiers guarding the city gate also had cloth tied around their mouths and noses, and their eyes that were exposed outside had solemn expressions.
Obviously, the generals guarding the city gate are both government officials and Duan Rong's men.
Otherwise, if the guard leader takes out the token, the general will not let anyone open the city gate.
"We are here to deliver medical supplies." The leader of the guards clasped his fists.
The commander of the city nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Just send her here. We will then send her to Pingnan City."
"Sir, I'm afraid that's not possible. Not only have we sent medical supplies this time, we also have doctors who have experience in diagnosing and treating epidemic diseases."
The leader of the guards pointed at the row of carriages in the team.
In addition to the carriage that Jiuer was in, there were indeed nine experienced doctors in the other carriages that were carrying people.
They are Duan Rong's people, and they are also people with a compassionate heart as a doctor, who are not afraid of life and death and have great love.
The commander of the city garrison hesitated for a moment and said, "We will also send these people in."
He looked at the leader of the guards. They were all his own people and he did not hide anything. "I understand your feelings, but the master has ordered that even if we send in supplies and doctors, we can only send them to the gate of Pingnan City. The people in Pingnan City will directly meet us at the gate. We cannot enter anyway."
The leader of the guards glanced at the carriage where Jiuer was, and thought of what Jiuer had said before, that as long as she could be sent to Pingnan County, she could find a way to enter Pingnan City.
Thinking of this, the leader of the guards clasped his fists without revealing his intention, "In that case, thank you for your hard work, sir."
Soon, Jiuer's group of ten doctors' carriages, as well as the supplies on the accompanying horses, all entered the city.
The guards who had escorted them all returned to where they came from.
Of course, Jiuer and others took every possible protective measures and wore several layers of cloth to cover their mouths and noses.
After entering the city, even in Pingnan County where the plague had not yet spread, the streets, which should have been bustling at this time, were almost deserted except for patrolling officers and soldiers.
A doctor asked about the situation, and the general defending the city said, "Those who are not infected with the disease should be quarantined at home and not go out unless necessary. Those who are infected will be quarantined and treated by our government officials according to the severity of the disease."
He paused, "Generally speaking, except for Pingnan City, the epidemic situation in other places in Pingnan County is still under control."
Jiu'er, who had been disguising herself as a man all along, asked, "Sir, do you know how long the medicinal herbs currently used in Pingnan City can last?"
The general defending the city was silent for a while, "Half a month."
When the other doctors around heard this, their expressions became more serious.
In the evening, we finally arrived at the city of Pingnan.
The setting sun in the sky was blood red, and crows were circling in groups in the air. Apart from them, there were no other living creatures around.
An indescribable smell of death permeated the air.
In just a few days, the temperaments of the soldiers guarding the city here and those guarding the gate of Pingnan County outside have become fundamentally different.
The faces of the officers and soldiers on the city wall here were mostly cold and wooden.
There is not much vitality left on his face.
After the city guard general who brought Jiuer and the others explained their purpose, he bowed deeply to Jiuer and the others, "Gentlemen, I salute you all here!"
The faces of those doctors were already filled with indescribable solemnity and determination to fight to the death.
They returned the greeting without saying a word.
After the officers and soldiers who brought Jiuer and the others retreated far away, the heavy city gate slowly opened.
Behind the city gate, fully armed officers and soldiers first checked the medical supplies in the vehicles, and then the people after the supplies passed.
Although the person who sent Jiuer and her group here is trustworthy enough, the identities of Jiuer and her group still need to be checked again.
The soldiers who were checking stood inside the city gate, while Jiuer and others stood outside the city gate. They could only enter the city gate if there were no problems.
Six doctors had already passed through, and Jiuer was the eighth.
When it was Jiu'er's turn to be the middle-aged doctor in front of her, a lazy, slightly tired, slightly hoarse female voice came, "Where did you send the person from?"
"Miss Hui Jin, it was sent from the General's Mansion in Kyoto."
As soon as these words fell, Jiuer saw a figure flash out from the darkness inside the city gate.
The woman who appeared was tall, with a slightly tired but extremely bright face.
At this moment, the woman half-closed her charming eyes and glanced lazily at Jiuer and the other three outside the city gate.
Jiuer hid behind the middle-aged man in front of her without making a sound.
The woman narrowed her eyes lazily and dangerously, "Um, um... the youngest one..."
He pointed closer and said, "Yes, it's you. What are you hiding?"
"And the old man at the end. One of these two looks too young, and the other looks too old. They are the two age groups most susceptible to infection. These two will return to where they are and be sent out of Pingnan County. The other two can come in directly."
Before Jiu'er could say anything, the white-haired doctor at the back angrily swung his sleeves and said, "My lady, although I am old, I am not yet unable to move or do anything, and I am not afraid of death!"
"We understand your intention of coming here. But please go back." The woman said with half-closed eyes, leaving no room for maneuver.
The old man got even angrier, "I don't know who this girl is, but since I'm here, I have no intention of leaving!"
Seeing that the two had gone in, only Jiu'er and the old doctor were left, and the city gate was about to close, the old man said angrily, "If you don't let me in, I will crash into this city gate and die!"
"Old sir, this Miss Jin is the doctor at the city gate, responsible for the infected people in the East City District. The superiors have sent down a message, asking us to obey the orders and instructions of several doctors in charge of several districts in the city. Thank you for your noble intentions in coming here regardless of life and death, but Miss Jin advises you to go back, so please go back!"
As they said this, the officers and soldiers who had been waiting outside the city gate and had brought Jiuer and the others here earlier were about to come over and forcibly take Jiuer and the others away.
The old man was angry but there was nothing he could do. Jiuer made a quick decision, pulled the old man up and rushed into the city gate.
The officers and soldiers in the city were stunned and subconsciously wanted to stop them.
However, they didn't expect Jiuer to wave her hand even faster, and they were stunned for an inexplicable moment before they could react.
At this moment, Jiuer took the opportunity to take the old man and ran into the city gate.
The officers and soldiers were about to step forward immediately, but Jiuer went to Miss Jin even faster.
Jiuer looked up and said with a smile, "Miss Jin, right? Sister, do you think my skills are qualified to enter the city?"
Jiuer swore that she clearly heard the other person grinding his teeth in his heart.
Even though the expression of the person in front of me didn't seem much different.
