Chapter 264: Heavy rain disaster, epidemic outbreak



Shen Shuli was in a heavy mood.

The book describes that the rainstorm lasted for seven days.

Today is only the fifth day!

This amount of heavy rain will continue for two more days!

How can the unprepared people survive this devastating natural disaster?

Recently, Shen Shuli has either been running for her life or on her way to escape, and she is only thinking about how to deal with the crisis at hand.

I have long forgotten about this natural disaster of rainstorm.

The main reason was that she didn't remember the exact time of the rainstorm disaster, she just knew that this plot would happen.

Otherwise, at the first moment of heavy rain.

Chen Shuli and Mu Wanjun should have reacted immediately and returned to the city to take corresponding measures.

...

...

The mill is closed.

Shen Shuli knocked for a long time, but no one came to open the door.

I guess there's no one inside.

She was just trying to find a suitable place to climb over the wall when the shop door suddenly opened.

Shen Shuli hurried over and saw that it was the mill owner.

“Boss, I’m here to get the goods.” Shen Shuli said quickly.

The mill owner had never seen Shen Shuli before, and for a moment he didn't remember this girl, thinking it was a previous order, so he quickly invited her in.

Just a short while.

A lot of water from the street flowed into the shop.

Several women were busy cleaning the dirty water on the ground.

"Miss, do you have any orders?" the boss asked.

Shen Shuli then remembered that she had forgotten to change her appearance.

She quickly found an excuse to cover up her lie: "My eldest brother came here a few days ago and placed an order for 50,000 kilograms of wheat. He also bought four millstones from your company. Do you remember, boss?"

The shop owner didn't expect that the girl and the young man were actually siblings. He looked carefully but could not find any similarities between the two.

It was simply that the little girl was too cute and lively, and although the young boy had an extraordinary aura, he looked rather ordinary.

Seeing that he didn't believe her, Shen Shuli took out the receipt from her sleeve, or actually from the space, and showed it to the boss.

The boss read the note and nodded, "Don't worry, girl. We have kept your food well and it won't get wet by the rain."

"That's great! My brother had something urgent to do, so he couldn't come to pick up the goods as agreed. As a result, he encountered this rainstorm and was delayed. I was worried, so I hurried over to check on him." Shen Shuli explained.

The heavy rain was still falling, and the flood on the street outside was already a meter deep. The store owner was unable to deliver the goods.

Shen Shuli just came to take a look to seek reassurance. She was worried that the food would be flooded, which would make her heartbroken.

This batch of grain is the best wheat grown in space, and she is reluctant to waste any of it.

The main reason was that she didn't expect the shop owner to live in the shop. If no one was in the shop, she would secretly move the food away and leave the silver behind.

Shen Shuli instructed: "Then I will come back to get the goods after the rain stops. Please keep them well for me."

“Don’t worry, the food is all on the third floor. Unless the rain floods the third floor, there’s nothing I can do.” The boss explained helplessly.

In the face of natural disasters like this, food is a very precious commodity!

The store owner values ​​the grains processed in the store more than anyone else!

Only then did Shen Shuli feel relieved to leave.

Return to the inn.

Shen Yuehua had already prepared bath water in Shen Shuli's room.

The inn where the prisoners live is the cheapest and most affordable one in the state.

The conditions in all aspects are naturally much worse.

After Gao Fei showed goodwill to the Xie family.

The next day, he secretly sent people to move all the prisoners to the best inn in the state.

Shen Yuehua was worried that her husband and two daughters wouldn't be able to find them when they returned, so she stayed in the inn and waited.

Originally, the other members of the Su family and the Shen family were also going to stay and wait for someone.

But the rainstorm was too fierce.

The conditions of this inn are really poor. Several parts have collapsed, the top floor is leaking, and the first floor has been soaked by floods.

It's totally uninhabitable.

Shen Yuehua immediately asked the rest of the Su and Shen families to move.

It was not until the next morning that Xie Chengyuan found out that Shen Shuli, Su Yunhai and Mu Wanjun were not in the inn.

He was worried that something might happen to the three people, so he stayed in the inn and waited for them.

But I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t be able to see the person back until the next day, and it even rained heavily!

He immediately sent Xuan Guang and the Silver Black Armor Guards to search the city for the whereabouts of the three people.

Unfortunately, nothing was found!

The heavy rain has caused a disaster.

Xie Chengyuan became more and more anxious, but he did not dare to alarm Gao Fei and asked him to send someone to help find the whereabouts of the three people.

He was afraid that the three were doing something important and he had ruined their plans.

But what can we do in this rainy weather?

Why haven't you come back for so long?

Xie Chengyuan could only continue searching in the city with the Silver Black Armor Guards.

On the fifth day, Su Yunhai and Mu Wanjun finally returned safely.

Shen Yuehua knew what the three of them were doing secretly.

But faced with this sudden weather, she was also very worried.

I haven't had a good night's sleep in the past few days, and my face has become much more haggard.

"My daughter, take a hot bath quickly, be careful not to catch a cold." Shen Yuehua did not blame Shen Shuli and Su Yunhai.

At this moment, she felt only deep heartache.

Because she knows that everything her daughter does is for everyone.

Xie Chengyuan waited in the room for an hour, and Shen Shuli's family of three and Mu Wanjun finally packed their luggage.

He brought four people on a bamboo raft to Furong Inn.

The room had already been prepared for the Su family.

Xie Chengyuan really wanted to say something to Shen Shuli, but he had important things to do, so he just nodded to her and left.

"Mom, is everyone unaffected?" Shen Shuli asked.

"Don't worry, everything is fine. It's just that the weather changed suddenly and everyone's body can't adapt. Some of them caught a cold. But they have already drunk ginger tea, so they should be fine." Shen Yuehua explained.

"Let Wanjun prepare some cold-repellent medicine for everyone. I'm worried about the possibility of an epidemic."

Shen Shuli was not shooting in the dark.

The plot of the book.

After the heavy rain disaster, many people were washed away by the flood, drowned, or starved to death.

The bodies were all submerged in the flood water.

After the rainstorm ended, the weather was still very hot, and the corpses in the water would quickly rot and cause epidemics.

Floods are flowing and people have no way of avoiding being infected.

It is better to prevent it early.

Shen Yuehua knew that her daughter's worries were not unreasonable, so she nodded immediately and said, "Okay, then I'll ask your father to see if he can buy some medicinal herbs."

Shen Shuli thought that the whole city was affected by the disaster, and all the shops must have been greatly impacted.

The situation in the herbal medicine shop is not much better.

"I'll go find Ah Jun. I don't think I can buy herbs now. I can only use the herbs in my space."

"Well, then you better be careful and don't let anyone notice anything. I'd better let your father go out for a while, so that it can be concealed from others." Shen Yuehua said worriedly.

"Okay, I understand."

Mu Wanjun still lives in a single room.

"Ari, you're looking for me?"

Shen Shuli explained her purpose.

"I remember the plot in the book. After the rainstorm, a large-scale epidemic will break out. Can you develop a prescription for the disease in advance?"

"There are many types of plagues. I have to know what kind of plague it is first." Mu Wanjun looked solemn.

She is aware of the seriousness of the epidemic.

If a plague breaks out in the whole city, they will definitely be trapped in the city.

"Do you remember the plot? I remember it was plague or cholera?"

"Oh, I remember. There were both kinds of epidemics, and the combination produced a more severe mutation. I don't remember the name of the epidemic that the author gave it."

As the inheritor of ancient medicine, Mu Wanjun is very sensitive to information about medical conditions.

"Get me the equipment and I'll start the experiment now." Mu Wanjun urged.

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Shuli released the instrument for her.

"I need some time to study what mutations will occur when these two epidemics combine."

Shen Shuli nodded and stopped disturbing her work.

In order to avoid sudden intrusion, Shen Shuli decided to stay in Mu Wanjun's room.

All the Su family's bodyguards and the Silver Black Armor Guards were seconded by Xie Chengyuan.

The heavy rain and floods had a huge impact on the people in the entire state.

The prefect and the transport commissioner were actively rescuing the people affected by the disaster.

Xie Chengyuan was extremely grateful to Gao Fei for helping the Xie family, so naturally he wanted to lend a helping hand.

Xie Chengying would not sit idly by.

The Su family also wanted to do their part, after all, others had helped them a lot.

Therefore, the Su family does not have bodyguards to protect them for the time being, nor does they need to be protected.

besides.

The Su and Chen families, as well as all the able-bodied laborers among the exiled prisoners, all offered to help rescue the disaster-stricken people.

They just wanted to do their bit to repay the Lord Du Yunyanshi for his care for them.

If there were no Du Yunhuanshi, they would probably have been captured by the Xingzhou army, and it would be unknown how they would have been treated.

Maybe they will encounter a natural disaster like a rainstorm in the wilderness, and they will definitely be washed away by the flood and their bodies will never be found!

For the Capital Transport Envoy, this natural disaster was also a devastating blow to him.

The mines near the salt lake were directly destroyed by the flood, and the finished salt stored in the warehouse was also soaked by the flood and flowed away.

If he had not just handed over a batch of salt to the court, he would definitely be held accountable by the emperor.

Although this was a natural disaster and an accident that was beyond human control, the Du Yunyun Envoy would inevitably be held accountable by the Emperor for failing to supervise the situation properly.

However, the state capital still has some advantages.

Because this area is rich in salt and has a prosperous trade, most of the houses in the city are two or three-story buildings.

The floors of the shops will be higher.

The people will not be soaked in the flood.

Most of those who need rescue are from villages and towns outside the city.

They are the ones who need help the most.

The heavy rain lasted for seven days.

It finally stopped on the evening of the seventh day.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Mu Wanjun's research has not yet produced any results, so Shen Shuli asked her mother Shen Yuehua to come and help look after it.

She had to hurry and fetch the grain from the mill.

But after she walked out of the inn.

What we saw was that the flood water on the streets had not completely receded.

Although the floodwaters on the higher streets have receded, the exposed ground is covered with thick sludge and various construction waste.

People simply cannot walk smoothly on the streets.

She wouldn't be able to get her food until the garbage on the streets was cleared.

Even the first floor of the inn where they were staying was half flooded.

Fortunately, the water level is slowly decreasing.

That being the case.

Shen Shuli decided to contribute.

After she disguised herself in Mu Wanjun's room, she said to Shen Yuehua, "Mom, I'll go out and help clean up the street, otherwise we'll all be trapped inside. Don't worry, I have a space cheat, so I can do this kind of thing easily."

Shen Yuehua knew that her daughter was too anxious to be trapped here, and thinking that she had a cheating artifact, she did not stop her.

"Go ahead, don't let anyone find out."

"Yeah, I understand."

Shen Shuli jumped directly from the window of Mu Wanjun's room.

Shen Yuehua felt helpless when she saw her daughter's careless behavior.

Shen Shuli's internal strength has improved greatly recently.

She has already mastered the Fire Cloud Art and the Canglan Ice Art proficiently, and the two techniques will no longer attack each other in her body.

For people who practice martial arts, especially those who possess inner strength, it is still possible to walk on water for a short period of time.

Shen Shuli moved around and finally came to a place with a low geographical location where there were almost no people.

Most of the water in the city flows towards the west gate, where the impact of the water is the greatest and there are relatively few people here.

Shen Shuli came to the deserted street and began to quickly extract various garbage from the ground flood and underwater sediment.

These sewage and garbage are directly absorbed and purified by the space, and then transformed into clean river water and merged into the river water in the space.

The garbage is transformed into part of the mountains.

Shen Shuli discovered that she could occasionally find some copper coins, loose silver, and some valuable items in the water.

Just like opening a blind box, surprises pop up from time to time.

For Shen Shuli, she is still very satisfied spiritually.

With the help of Shen Shuli.

The massive flood in the prefecture city of Quanzhou was dissipating very quickly.

Before dark.

All the flood water has been drained away.

But all the streets were covered with thick mud, garbage and dead bodies, and the cleanup work was definitely very heavy for the people.

People in every household can finally step out of their rooms and start cleaning up their own garbage.

Then slowly expand outwards to clear the streets.

People will do these things voluntarily without being told.

Because it concerns their safety and survival.

Shen Shuli was still helping secretly, collecting all the garbage street by street.

Officers and soldiers were concentrating on cleaning up the streets in front of the government office, while the people were still cleaning up in their homes.

There were basically no pedestrians on other streets, which greatly facilitated Shen Shuli to do good deeds secretly.

The next day after dawn.

Not only did the common people find that the nearby streets had been cleaned up.

It also directly attracted the attention of the government.

The people thought that these streets were cleared by people organized by government officials.

The government believed that the cleanup was done by the people on their own initiative.

Both sides were full of gratitude and relief towards each other.

I have to say, this was a beautiful misunderstanding.

Been busy for two days.

Everything in the state returned to normal.

Originally, the people of the whole city were prepared for a protracted war.

After all, this rainstorm was so severe that it was a blessing that the entire city was not destroyed by the flood.

No one thought that they could recover in just two days.

However, many people's houses were severely damaged after being soaked in water, and some even collapsed directly.

All of these require post-disaster reconstruction.

A large number of disaster victims also need to be resettled in a timely manner. There are no suitable venues in the city, so all of them need to be rebuilt.

The most difficult thing was that more than half of the food in the city was destroyed!

All the grain in the government granary was soaked by the flood, and only one in ten was usable.

The state's important salt mines were hit hard by the floods. Not only were the original sites completely covered with silt, but more than half of the salt in the salt lake was also lost.

It will probably take a year or so to restore the city to its former glory.

The three main roads outside Jeonju City were also covered with silt and could not be used for normal traffic.

*

This situation is not limited to the state capital.

The entire Dayong Dynasty was no less inferior.

Even the capital city of the dynasty is no exception!

However, there were more than 100,000 military runners and soldiers in the capital, and the city was able to return to its former state in just three days.

The worst-hit was the Northern Barbarian Army outside Cangzhou City.

The Northern Barbarian Army's attack was originally fierce and they were about to break through the Cangzhou city.

Their camp was located on a flat ground on the official road fifty miles outside Cangzhou City.

There are no walls or shelters around, only the mountains nearby.

However, this sudden torrential rain directly destroyed the camp of the Northern Barbarian Army, resulting in the loss of at least half of the troops, and even all the stockpiled food was soaked and destroyed.

If the Northern Barbarian Army had not run to the nearby mountains to hide, they would probably have been wiped out, allowing the Cangzhou army to win without a fight!

But Bogda made a strategy that no one expected.

On the fifth day of heavy rain.

He immediately ordered the northern barbarian soldiers to cut down trees in the mountains to make rafts, and let the soldiers float along the rafts to Cangzhou City.

The city of Cangzhou has a special geographical location, with towering mountains on both sides of the city wall, making it an excellent location that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

But a rainstorm exposed the shortcomings of Cangzhou Prefecture.

Due to the high geographical location north of Cangzhou Prefecture, all the floods accumulated from heavy rains converged towards the north gate of Cangzhou City.

In just five days.

A ten-foot-high flood gathered outside the north gate of Cangzhou!

The prefect and the commander of Cangzhou did not dare to open the city gates, allowing the flood to rush into the city and impact the people.

They were also worried that the Northern Barbarian Army would take the opportunity to enter the city, causing more and more floods outside the city to gather.

The Northern Barbarian Army immediately seized the opportunity to attack the city.

The extremely thick city gate that was originally impenetrable was quickly breached by the Northern Barbarian Army under the huge water force of the flood!

Although the rainstorm did not cause much damage to the Cangzhou army, the floods in the city did affect the army's combat operations.

Not only do they have to maintain order in the city and rescue the people, but they also have to fight against the invading northern barbarian army.

The Northern Barbarians' army was tall, strong and powerful. After they broke into the city, they immediately raised their knives to kill the people inside.

The entire Cangzhou Prefecture was like a hell on earth, where the most tragic scenes were being played out.

Because the heavy rain blocked communications, the news of Cangzhou's capture could not be transmitted to the capital in time!

*

After the heavy rain.

The temperature was actually a few degrees higher than before the rain.

The silt on the official road quickly solidified under the scorching sun.

The people trapped in the city were finally able to travel normally.

Shen Shuli immediately took back the grain that was placed at the mill.

Fortunately, she got it back in time.

During the days of heavy rain, even though the mill had tried its best to preserve it, the flour was still a little damp.

Chen Shuli took three thousand kilograms of flour and gave it to Su Yunhai, asking him to sell half of it to the exile team, and the remaining half would be the food for the Su and Chen families.

All the remaining flour is stored in a warehouse to prevent it from getting wet and getting infested with insects and going bad.

After the rainstorm.

A large amount of grain must have been lost in various places.

It will definitely be more difficult to buy food in the future.

After studying the virus for several days, Mu Wanjun still had no progress.

Having been forced to stay in Quanzhou for ten days, Shen Shuli was a little anxious.

But she was worried about the spread of the epidemic outside the city and did not dare to let the team risk leaving the city.

On the eleventh day in Jeonju.

The epidemic broke out inevitably!

The Quanzhou city needs to be rebuilt and the city gates cannot remain closed forever.

It is inevitable that civilians will pass in and out to transport materials.

But the spread of the epidemic was even more severe than Shen Shuli had expected.

In just a few days.

Most of the people in the city suffered from the same symptoms such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and coughing up blood.

In order to prevent the team from being infected, Su Yunhai has been asking everyone to hide in the inn these days.

Apart from Su Chen's family and the exile team, there were not many guest rooms left in the entire inn, and there were few other guests staying there.

Su Yunhai paid out of his own pocket again and asked the store owner to close the store for a few days and book the entire place.

All people entering and leaving the inn are required to wear masks to prevent bringing in viruses from outside.

Even though the precautions have been so strict.

Some people in the team were still infected.

The one in the most serious situation turned out to be Mrs. Chen He Yunshang!

She was due to give birth these days, and the Chen and He families were taking extra good care of her.

But no one expected that she would be the first one to be infected.

After Shen Shuli and Mu Wanjun received the news, their faces changed.

Shen Shuli did not go over, but handed Mu Wanjun a bottle of spiritual spring water.

The spiritual spring water should be able to boost Mrs. Chen's immune system and help her survive this virus.

Mu Wanjun immediately armed herself, wearing a hood, mask, gloves and other protective gear, and went to take Mrs. Chen's pulse.

I also took a tube of her blood for research.

The epidemic is rampant and the whole city is short of medicine.

Most of the medicines in the city's pharmacies had long been sold out.

The transport commissioner could only mobilize the people in the city to look for medicinal herbs in the nearby mountains.

The government will purchase all medicinal materials at five times the usual price.

Shen Shuli also took the opportunity to go out of the city to collect herbs, so that she could smuggle the herbs in the space out.

Fortunately, there had just been a heavy rain.

The mountains are nourished by rain, and the plants seem to be injected with energy and exude vitality.

People can be seen everywhere on the mountain.

Some people were digging wild vegetables, some were cutting down trees, and some were collecting herbs and hunting.

Shen Shuli deliberately stayed away from these people and walked into the mountains.

Arrived at a sparsely populated location.

Shen Shuli took the opportunity to release the big brown bear and two tigers, allowing them to gain more experience in the wild, so as to prevent them from losing their wildness in captivity.

The vicious dogs in the space were also released into the mountains to run wild.

Shen Shuli discovered that there were very few medicinal herbs on the mountain. Even with rainwater, there were only a few newly grown seedlings, which were not old enough for use as medicine.

Only various weeds, wild grasses and mushrooms grow most luxuriantly.

Shen Shuli was attracted at once.

Immediately pick the edible mushrooms with joy.

Not long.

She filled her basket with them.

There were many baskets and wicker baskets in the space, and Shen Shuli continued to pick until dark before going down the mountain to go home.

Don't forget to call Xiong Da, Hu Zi and Gou Zi back to the space.

Return to the inn.

She gave the medicinal herbs she had prepared to Xie Chengyuan and asked him to help sell them to the government.

Only a small number of medicinal herbs were left for the team members to use.

With an accurate virus blood sample, Mu Wanjun spent an afternoon doing experiments and finally developed a vaccine.

But vaccines are too scarce.

Mu Wanjun couldn't show this vaccine to the world.

Only prescriptions can be formulated to achieve the effect of vaccines.
