The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

The old monk took the witch to a remote wilderness.

He remembered the past.

It turns out that he and this witch are lovers.

They used to have a very good relationship, but something happened later and the witch fell in love with someone else.

The old monk was angry, but he did not expose it, but secretly retaliated.

The witch thought that he didn't know clearly. While she was getting along with him, she was entangled with other men at the same time.

Later, the old monk practiced a new method and officially took revenge.

At night, he lived with the witch. As a result, the witch became ill and had to rely on blood for a living.

And the appearance has become so ugly.

At that time, the old monk told the witch that he did this just to get revenge on her and that he had known about her for a long time.

The witch felt that the old monk was particularly sinister.

The old monk laughed loudly and let such a thing happen to the witch.

Several years have passed, and the old monk has calmed down a lot.

But the moment I saw the witch, everything came back to me.

He also thought that after all, this was his old sweetheart, so he might as well give her a grand burial.

On the other side, the first newspapers also began to gain local popularity.

Like the people in Youzhou, literate people in the countryside also find newspapers particularly refreshing.

On this day, Xi Yu brought Xu Dong to Youzhou College.

Xu Dong is already willing to come here to teach.

Seeing the environment of Youzhou College, Xu Dong felt particularly happy.

Xi Yu said: "You will be the youngest teacher at Youzhou College."

Xu Dong laughed.

And very coincidentally, one of the teachers happened to have to leave his hometown for something.

Therefore, Xu Dong can just fill the gap.

Everyone found it very incredible to learn that such a young person came to teach here.

Xi Yu told the students that they must treat Xu Dong like other teachers and decided not to look down on him because of his young age.

Wenxuan and Dongfanghong were also very happy to learn that Xu Dong could teach.

After all, they were the ones who brought Xu Dong here.

On this day, Xi Yu was writing at home, and his servant reported that it was Guan Yu who asked for an audience.

Guan Yu looked very anxious.

Xi Yu looked at Guan Yu with a solemn expression.

"Guan Yu, what's going on?"

Guan Yu frowned and sounded anxious.

"I am reporting to the Prime Minister that a plague broke out in a certain town. The situation is very serious. It is said that many people have fallen ill.

Xi Yu was shocked and his eyes widened.

"It's so serious? What should we do?"

Guan Yu said: "I hope to let Song Shuwen pass. He may have a way to deal with it."

Xi Yu said without hesitation: No, I want to go there in person.

His eyes were firm, revealing a sense of determination

Guan Yu quickly dissuaded him: Prime Minister, this trip is dangerous and the plague is very contagious. Why should you take the risk yourself?
Xi Yu shook his head: As the Prime Minister, how can I back down at this time? The people there need me.

Guan Yu sighed helplessly: But if you have any shortcomings...

Xi Yu interrupted Guan Yu: "Don't worry about me, I will be careful. I have to go, this is my responsibility."

Guan Yu said with a serious face: "The people who reported the information are waiting at the Governor's Mansion." There was a hint of calmness in his eyes.

Xi Yu thought for a while and decisively decided to follow Guan Yu in person.

He thought to himself: "I must understand the situation personally and not miss any important information."

When Xi Yu arrived at Guan Yu's mansion, he saw several messengers at a glance.

Guan Yu quickly introduced to everyone: "This is the Prime Minister, he is here in person."

Xi Yu nodded slightly, indicating that everyone should not be nervous.

Several people quickly saluted Xi Yu.

Xi Yu frowned and asked eagerly: "What is the specific situation?"

The reporter replied in panic: "The plague occurred in a small county called Quanzhou. The first patient had a high fever and later infected more and more people. The local county magistrate had no choice but to prevent the spread of the virus. I hope to bury the patient alive, so I came here to ask if I can do this.”

Xi Yu's face became extremely serious, and he thought to himself: "How could the county magistrate come up with such a cruel idea! This is simply a waste of human life!"

Anger welled up in his heart, he raised his voice and said seriously: "You definitely can't do this! Isn't the county magistrate making a bad idea?"

Several people looked embarrassed and hurriedly said: "The county magistrate also has his own reasons. There is really no other way." There was a hint of helplessness in their voices.

Xi Yu's eyes were firm, and he replied categorically: "No matter what, the county magistrate cannot do this! This is an act against humanity!"

At this time, he secretly decided that he must understand the situation personally and find a solution to the problem.

Then, Xi Yu turned to Guan Yu and said, "Let's go and see for ourselves." Guan Yu nodded in agreement.

When those people heard that Xi Yu was going there in person, they had surprised looks on their faces, and a feeling of admiration surged in their hearts.

They thought to themselves: "Prime Minister Xi Yu is so brave and went to the epidemic area in person. It is really admirable!"

Xi Yu looked at Guan Yu eagerly and urged: "Hurry up and prepare, time is running out." He was extremely anxious, hoping to rush to Quanzhou as soon as possible to understand the specific situation of the epidemic.

Guan Yu quickly prepared two horses and mounted the horses together with Xi Yu.

Those who reported the news also followed on horseback.

On the way forward, Xi Yu turned around and asked the messengers: "Have you told anyone else about this news?" There was a hint of worry in his eyes.

Several people quickly replied: "No, sir, we will report it as soon as we get the news."

They felt a little uneasy, fearing that they had done something wrong.

Xi Yu didn't ask any more questions. He was silent for a moment, his heart full of worry.

He thought to himself: "I don't know how serious the situation is across the state. I hope we can control the epidemic in time."

At the same time, the figures of several ladies suddenly appeared in his mind, "I didn't tell them where I was going. I wonder if they would be worried?" He couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt in his heart.

Although Xi Yu was still thinking about his wife, he considered that things in the disaster area were more important after all.

He put aside his worries for the time being.

When they arrived at Jeonju, the sight before them made people feel sad.

Xi Yu looked at the depression with a heavy heart: "I'm afraid the situation here is more serious than we imagined."

At this time, the whole state has closed its city gates.

Although the reason was not clearly stated, it was obviously to control the epidemic.

Xi Yu and Guan Yu looked at each other and felt the seriousness of the matter.

The soldiers guarding the door alertly asked several people what they were doing.

Suddenly, he recognized the messengers.

Seeing this, Xi Yu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "We are here to understand the situation of the epidemic, please be accommodating."

His heart was full of anxiety, hoping to enter the city as soon as possible and provide help to the people.

The messenger quickly pointed at Xi Yu and said loudly: "This is the Prime Minister who is here in person!"

After hearing this, the soldier had a surprised look on his face, and he quickly opened the city gate.

Xi Yu and Guan Yu drove their horses into the city, only to see a desolate scene on the street.

The originally lively streets now became deserted, and most shops had their doors closed.

Xi Yu looked around and sighed secretly: "This city seems to have lost its vitality, like a dead city."

He looked at the empty streets, and his heart became heavier and heavier.

At this time, a gust of wind blew by, picking up a few fallen leaves and swirling them in the air.

In the wind, the figures of Xi Yu and Guan Yu looked particularly lonely.

They walked along the street towards the county government office, and everything they saw along the way was quiet and depressing.

When we arrived at the gate of the county government office, several people were making trouble. They asked the government officials excitedly: "Why don't you let us leave the city? We have important things!"

The yamen servant replied helplessly: "This is to prevent the plague from spreading outside."

They also felt a little helpless, knowing that they were only carrying out the orders of the county magistrate.

But those people shouted anxiously: "We don't have any disease at all!"

However, the government officials still did not dare to take it lightly.

"These are all orders from the county magistrate, and we can only follow them."

Several messengers hurriedly shouted, "The Prime Minister has arrived!"

When several government officials heard this, they immediately bowed respectfully. Xi Yu raised his hand slightly and asked them to stand up.

Xi Yu looked at the troublemakers and said earnestly: "Now is an extraordinary time. I hope everyone can understand."

There was determination and calmness in his eyes.

Seeing what the prime minister had said, those few people had no choice but to sigh helplessly and turned to leave.

Several government officials quickly let Xiyu enter the county government office.

Xi Yu walked into the yard and saw the county magistrate Ma Lin standing there with a sad face.

At this time, several messengers also quickly came to the county magistrate and said respectfully: "The Prime Minister is here."

After hearing what the messenger said, a flash of surprise flashed in Ma Lin's eyes, and he quickly knelt down to salute Xi Yu.

Xi Yu quickly stretched out his hand to help Ma Lin up and said gently, "No need to be polite."

Marin led everyone into the house.

Xi Yu sat down on the chair, looked at Ma Lin, and said, "Tell me the specific situation."

Marin frowned and said anxiously: "Today's situation is really not optimistic. Most people are more or less infected with the plague. I am really worried!"

Xi Yu frowned slightly and said firmly: "It is right to close the city gate now. This can prevent the further spread of the plague."

He paused for a moment and then said: "But it is absolutely not advisable to kill people. We must do a good job in publicity so that everyone will not have mental obstacles."

Ma Lin quickly nodded in agreement, and Xi Yu then asked, "Have the source been found out?"

Marin shook his head and replied: "It's not clear yet. The home of the first man who had a fever has been set up as a restricted area. Someone is taking care of him, and others are not allowed to approach casually."

Xiyu thought for a moment and decided to go and see for himself.

Ma Lin was startled when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Absolutely not, Mr. Prime Minister, you have a distinguished status and cannot be suspected!"

But Xi Yu shook his head firmly and insisted on going.

There was firmness and determination in his eyes.

Ma Lin looked at Xi Yu's determined expression and said helplessly: "In that case, I will accompany you there too."

So, several people rode towards the village together.

Along the way, the wind was so strong that it blew their clothes.

They came to a village and saw that it was extremely deserted.

With several patients appearing, many people are hiding at home and afraid to come out.

Xi Yu frowned as he looked at the empty streets.

"The situation in this village is worse than I thought."

Marin echoed worriedly: "Yes, sir, we have to find a way to control the epidemic."

In front of Shi Dacheng's house, a government servant was guarding there.

When he saw Marin arriving in person, he had a surprised look on his face.

Ma Lin introduced Xi Yu and Guan Yu to the Yamen servants, and the Yamen servants quickly saluted.

Xi Yu waved his hand, smiled and said, "No need to be polite."

Shi Dacheng's home seemed particularly deserted.

Shi Dacheng was lying quietly at home, while his mother was lying in another room.

Taken care of by another Yamen servant.

The yamen servant himself was a little uncomfortable and looked pale.

Ma Lin asked Xi Yu and Guan Yu to wait in the yard.

He stepped into the house.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Shi Dacheng mumbling nonsense and looking very painful.

At this time, the lights in the room were dim and filled with a strong smell of medicine. The windows were closed, making the air seem a bit dull.

Marin frowned and asked softly: "Dacheng, how do you feel?"

Shi Dacheng didn't answer, still talking nonsense to himself.

Guan Yu watched Ma Lin walk into the room and asked Xi Yu worriedly.

"If Marin goes into the house and comes out soon, wouldn't it be possible for him to be infected?"

Xi Yu sighed and frowned slightly, helplessly.

He couldn't answer the question and had to remain silent.

Ma Lin hurried out of the house, came to Xi Yu, and said anxiously: "Prime Minister, Shi Dacheng keeps talking nonsense, and I can't ask anything."

Hearing this, Xi Yu suddenly thought of the mask.

His eyes lit up and he quickly said to Marin: "Hurry up and make something called a mask! Just make it as I described."

He briefly described the mask's appearance to Marin.

Marin nodded in agreement and said that he would contact the clothes maker to produce such masks.

Xi Yu looked at Ma Lin's departing back, then turned to Guan Yu and said, "Let's walk around the village."

Xi Yu and Guan Yu came back from wandering around, and the moment they stepped into the village, they felt a heavy sense of depression.

The whole village was filled with the smell of death, and the silence was terrifying.

The streets were deserted and the doors were closed, like abandoned ruins.

A strong stench filled the air.

Xi Yu and Guan Yu's faces turned pale, and they exchanged frightened looks.

Guan Yu frowned, staring at the tragic situation in front of him, and whispered to Xi Yu: "Could someone deliberately poison me to cause this scene?"

A trace of solemnity flashed in Xi Yu's eyes. He nodded slightly and replied: "It's completely possible. But right now, the top priority is to solve the immediate problem first."

After a while, Guan Yu felt extremely depressed and couldn't help coughing.

Seeing this, Xi Yu frowned slightly, with a worried look on his face, and said softly: "Guan Yu, the atmosphere here is really depressing. Let's find an open place quickly."

Guan Yu nodded, his face a little pale, and responded softly: "That's fine, just follow what the prime minister said."

Later, the two came to the wilderness together.

In the wilderness, the wind blew slowly, which gradually calmed down Guan Yu's mood, his coughing slowly stopped, and his complexion gradually returned to normal.

Xi Yu thought to himself, the scenes of dealing with plagues in his previous life kept flashing in his mind.

He couldn't help but feel helpless.

Because he knows very well that in this era and in this place, it is probably unrealistic to use those methods.

There was a wave of conflicting emotions in his heart.

On the one hand, he is confident in his knowledge of past lives.

Those methods did work at the time.

On the other hand, he also knew clearly that the conditions and environment here were very different from those in his previous life, and he could not directly apply those methods.

There was a trace of confusion and confusion in Xi Yu's eyes, and he sighed secretly, feeling tangled in his heart.

He understands that faced with current difficulties, it is necessary to find a solution that is suitable for this time and place.

Marin hurried into a clothing store with an eager look on his face.

He described the appearance of the mask that Xi Yu mentioned to the clothing store owner in detail, and his eyes revealed his desire to solve the plague problem.

The clothing store owner listened carefully, his eyes were firm and friendly, and he nodded slightly to express his understanding.

After listening to Ma Lin's description, the boss immediately agreed. He said boldly: "No problem, I will start making it right away. The price will be very low, because now everyone is in trouble and should help each other."

Marin listened with a look of admiration on his face.

He excitedly shook his boss's hand and said, "You are such an amazing person. I am deeply in awe of your generosity and kindness."

The boss smiled and said firmly: "This is what I should do. The most important thing is that we all get through this difficulty together."

The boss frowned and said with a hint of worry in his tone: "I will contact a few guys, but their current situation is not particularly good. I am the only one who is still healthy." His eyes showed helplessness and worry.

Marin nodded, with a determined look on his face, and said, "This county will go back to Shi Dacheng's village first."

Marin turned and left, continuing to look for traces of Shi Dacheng's village.

In the end, he didn't find Xi Yu.

The yamen officer said that he might have gone wild.

He had no choice but to come to the wilderness.

In the distance, he saw Xi Yu's figure and hurried to meet him.

Ma Lin looked a little tired. He took a breath and reported the relevant situation to Xi Yu.

Xiyu listened quietly.

Xi Yu raised his head slightly, looked firmly into the distance, and said in a calm tone: "I believe the epidemic will pass. It's no big deal. We must stay calm."

Marin nodded slightly, with a relieved smile on his face, and said, "Then let's go back to the county office first, and we will continue the investigation tomorrow. How about it?"

After hearing this, Xiyu nodded in agreement.

His expression seemed calm and calm.

So, the three people started to go to the county government office. (End of chapter)
