Fortunately, under Li Wangyou's strong pressure, all the patients in the city who were found to have symptoms of the disease were all gathered in the Lifang near the city wall.

When the first batch of patients who died of the plague appeared, the matter had not attracted the attention of other people in the city.

Li Wangyou, who was notified, was also terrified.

He also did not expect that the plague was so lethal and death came so quickly.

So he immediately ordered people to pour lime on the bodies of those who died of illness, and transport them out of the city for cremation.

Physicians talk about the big-headed plague that changes the color of the tiger, that is, the plague. The reason why it is called the Black Death in Europe is that the dead of this terrible disease will have a large number of black spots on their bodies, which looks like the corpse has turned black. .

When those medical workers and doctors saw the corpses being transported out of the city and prepared to be cremated, some people immediately reacted, and panic immediately spread among the hundreds of medical workers.

"Big head plague! It's big head plague!"

"Oh my god! That's pimple plague! Could it be that the governor ordered me to come to Yanling County to treat pimple plague?"

"Where can this disease be cured? If the old man doesn't go, the old man will go home!"

"Yes, once you get infected with the plague, you will definitely die! This is the work of the plague ghost, so what's the use of asking me to wait?"

"This... is this going to force me to wait to die?"

"When the big head plague appears, you should find Taoist monks to drive away Nuo. What's the use of finding me?"

The medical doctors, who were still at a loss, immediately became terrified when they learned that the plague broke out in Yanling County, and many of them turned around and wanted to escape.

If it weren't for the deterrence of hundreds of guards armed with weapons and riding horses, these hundreds of medical workers would all scatter and flee immediately like birds and beasts.

Even so, the medical team of hundreds of people became chaotic, with begging for mercy and crying.

Li Wangyou and others who got the news also rushed over at this time, and they couldn't help frowning when they saw this situation.

"Shut up! No matter how loud you are, I'll kill him!" Seeing the noise of these medical workers, the captain of the Imperial Guard who was in charge of the escort couldn't help being annoyed. medical workers.

When all the imperial guards showed their weapons, the noisy medical workers calmed down a little.

Li Wangyou also has a headache for these medical workers and doctors.

The doctors and nurses of the later generations are all called the most beautiful retrogrades. Whether it is an epidemic or a disaster, they rush to the front line to treat the sick and save lives without hesitation. How can they be as unbearable as Datang Medical Engineering.

Of course, I can't blame these medical workers.

After all, the status of medical workers and doctors nowadays is really too lowly. Medicine is a middle class, inferior to scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants. They are called "low professions" and have no social status at all.

Therefore, it is a dream to expect these medical workers, like the doctors and nurses of later generations, to take saving lives and healing the wounded as their own responsibility.

Li Wangyou didn't expect the doctor's consciousness to be so high.

"This Marquis is the founding Marquis of Hu County. Henan Dao deposed the emissary. He was ordered by the Holy Order to deal with the epidemic in Yanling County. You are called here because you hope that you can cure diseases and save people, and save all sentient beings! Save thousands of people in Yanling County The surname and the fire and water! Why, don't you want to?"

Li Wangyou's words made all the hundreds of medical workers kneel down and kowtow incessantly.

"Master Mingjian, I'm just an ordinary medical worker, how can I cure the big head plague? It's not because I don't want to, I really can't do anything."

"Master Hou, let me wait for a way out? Let me wait to save people in Yanling County, which is no different from seeking death!"

"My lord, please forgive me and let us go!"

Regarding the performance of the medical staff, Li Wangyou could only be patient and persuasive.

"Everyone, relax, I won't force you to die, what good will that do for me?"

"Master Hou, but we really don't know how to cure this big-headed plague, please ask Master Hou to learn from it."

Li Wangyou said in relief: "Don't worry, as long as you follow the arrangement of the Marquis. When the epidemic is over, the Marquis will reward you all with a hundred copper coins!"

One hundred guan is not a small amount for these medical and engineering doctors. Normally, they can only earn seven or eight guan a year, and one hundred guan is already equivalent to their income for more than ten years.

But the fear of the head plague has suppressed the greed of the medical workers for money.

Although birds died for food and people died for money, when faced with the real threat of death, the group of medical workers were somewhat sober and were not tempted by Li Wangyou's "carrot".

And in the eyes of those medical workers, they might not be able to get the hundred copper coins at all, because no one can live until the end of the epidemic.

"Please be merciful, I don't want any copper coins, please let me go back."

"Hou Ye is so merciful and merciful, let me wait for these poor people."

"My lord, please let me wait, I still have parents who need to be served! I beg your lord to take pity on me!"

No matter how earnestly Li Wangyou tried to persuade them, these hundreds of medical workers just refused to nod.This made Li Wangyou, Cheng Chumo and others a little impatient.

As soon as Li Wangyou gritted his teeth, he prepared to use violent coercive means to directly let the imperial army drive those medical workers into the city.

Since carrots are not enough, then only sticks can be used.

Su Changqing reached out to stop Li Wangyou: "Wangyou, let me try. If these doctors are unwilling, even if they go to Yanling County, they may not be able to cure the disease and save people."

"Changqing, what can you do?" Li Wangyou was puzzled.

Su Changqing stretched out his hand to fiddle with the hair blown away by the wind, and said quietly: "Don't worry about it, trust me, I can convince them."

Hearing what Su Changqing said, Li Wangyou could only let her try.

But Su Changqing urged the horse to go to Niu Wu's side, and whispered a few words instead.

Niu Wu's expression changed drastically, and he kept shaking his head.

Su Changqing persuaded again, but Niu Wu still shook his head.

Su Changqing stopped talking, but just stared at Niu Wu. In the end, Niu Wu secretly glanced at Li Wangyou, touched the sweat on his forehead with some guilt, and silently nodded in agreement.

This exchange between the two fell into Li Wangyou's eyes, which made him very strange. He didn't understand what Su Changqing wanted to do, and why Niu Wu had such an expression?

He was about to ask questions, but suddenly he heard the sound of rumbling horseshoes on the official road.

Everyone hurriedly looked for the sound, but they saw smoke and dust billowing on the official road, obviously a large group of cavalry was galloping towards Yanling County...

846 Mrs. Marquis

This sudden cavalry team made Li Wangyou and the others a little nervous.

Fortunately, everyone soon saw the flag of the cavalry, a huge "Cheng" character.

Cheng Chu looked at his two brothers silently, "Why is Daddy here?"

Cheng Chuliang and Cheng Chubi were also puzzled, they didn't understand why Cheng Yaojin, who had returned to Chang'an with the sage, would suddenly lead a brigade of imperial troops back to Xuzhou.
