Global Desertification: I am accumulating merit in another world
Chapter 146: Killing Guests
The Xianzhi envoy was fascinated at first sight. The Xianzhi people loved these shiny things the most. "I want them! I'll buy them!"
"Okay! Sir, you are so generous!" The woman was delighted. These things were the least valuable in Qingli! The purchase price of this set of cups was less than one tael!
She took the money and quickly packed up the set of cups. Then she turned around and took out another set of pink lotus cups.
The handsome envoy held his breath for a moment, "I want this too!"
"okay!"
Soon the envoys had bought a bunch of things. Seeing that they were almost done, Ali said calmly, "Okay, let's go to the next stop."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the vendors who had been frantically selling their wares immediately turned around and looked for new targets.
The first rule of setting up a stall is that you cannot just fleece one sheep. Those guards and those with the Qingli Villa sign must be given face!
These people have been setting up stalls at the city gate for many years, and have long developed a pair of sharp eyes. They know very well who can be slaughtered and who cannot be slaughtered!
After buying a lot of things, the envoys got on the carriages and walked along the central avenue. This road could accommodate four carriages side by side. It was extremely spacious. There were no stalls on both sides. There were only two-story attics, which were built in an extremely exquisite and beautiful manner.
Several envoys crowded around the window and looked out, and from time to time they exclaimed, "Their streets are so clean!"
"It's because someone is always cleaning, and there are trash cans every few steps."
Suddenly, Duan Qing, who had been silent all this time, said, "There are no beggars on their streets either."
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Yes, the streets of Phoenix are clean and spacious. Everyone's clothes are not good at all, but they are all clean and tidy. There are no beggars in the corners and no idle vagrants.
Each of their faces is filled with longing for life.
Ali said: "Because our Qingli State has an orphanage, a nursing home, and a school for the disabled, all children can go to school for free."
"That's because you have money! Without money, you can't support so many people."
Ali smiled slightly, "So we never think that doing business is inferior."
"Scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans have been passed down through the ages. You are simply turning the tables on Tian Gang!"
"So we are strong, and you are lagging behind!" Ali was very proud and fortunate. If they hadn't met Shen Lishu, how would they know that women can also live a different life?
The envoys were so angry that they all kept silent.
Shen Lishu entered Phoenix City around noon and went straight to the palace in the center of the city. This time she brought Taohua and Xiao Mu with her, as well as Jixiang and Ruyi.
The people in charge of the palace now are Shen Xingshu and Feng Wu. They had received the news a long time ago and were eagerly waiting for it.
When Shen Lishu jumped off the horse, everyone in the room fell silent.
She looked around; Feng Wu, Shen Xingshu, Liu Yu, Hua Manlou, those who were nearby had all arrived, while the others were either far away or unable to get away.
Shen Lishu looked at everyone and smiled, "Why are you all silent? Are you not happy to see me?"
Hua Manlou was the first to laugh: "How could that be? We are so happy that you can return safely."
Everyone in the room agreed and looked at Shen Lishu with eyes full of satisfaction and curiosity.
Shen Lishu smiled and said, "What can happen to me? This won't be good."
Then he looked at everyone in the room and began to give orders.
Emperor Jinning has always claimed to be orthodox and always maintained a condescending attitude. This time he suddenly wanted to take action against Qing Li, and Shen Lishu knew that he could not wait any longer.
Just after the discussion, Liu Yu's watch suddenly started beeping. He looked down and his expression suddenly turned ugly.
"Master, General Zhou sent a message that an unknown epidemic has appeared at the border of Yucheng, and hundreds of people have died!"
Shen Lishu stood up suddenly, "What! I'll go, you guys follow the plan." She suddenly remembered something and turned around and ordered, "Feng Wu, envoys from all over the world are coming to Phoenix City, you should pay more attention."
"I understand, master." Feng Wu agreed. This matter had just been reported to him.
Shen Lishu didn't stay any longer and immediately took his men to Yucheng.
Zhou Aotian's army is stationed outside Yucheng, always on guard against invaders. He is now the most famous general of Qingli Kingdom and is extremely brave.
After Shen Lishu arrived, Zhou Aotian came in to greet him. He looked around and finally set his eyes on Shen Lishu. "Who are you...?"
Shen Lishu now looked about thirteen or fourteen years old. She took a step forward and nodded slightly, "Dulong, it's me."
"It's really you!" Zhou Aotian burst into tears, "You don't know how sad I was when I heard about you... Didn't you drink Meng Po soup?"
Shen Lishu was speechless. "Hurry up and get down to business. Take me to see those sick people."
"Okay!" Zhou Aotian quickly wiped his tears, stood up, and led everyone to the back mountain. "As soon as we found out that this was an epidemic, Sanniang established this quarantine area. She has been very busy recently."
Sanniang, that particularly fierce girl, Shen Lishu still remembers her.
“She’s worked hard.”
"Well! It's my duty." Zhou Aotian walked to the entrance of the isolation area and asked for a few sets of clothes. "Come and put on the disinfected isolation suits, just in case."
Shen Lishu took the clothes and put them on, then turned to look at Jixiang and Ruyi, thought for a moment and said, "Taohua, you stay outside and watch over them."
Children are still young and their resistance is not as high as adults, so it is better to be cautious.
Shen Lishu is not afraid of any epidemic disease, and as a son of luck, Xiao Mu should not be easily infected with the disease.
After entering the isolation area, Shen Lishu saw the busy Sanniang at a glance. She looked more mature and stable, with dark circles under her eyes.
She was busy, so Shen Lishu didn't go over to disturb her. He went straight to the patient lying nearby to check on her.
The man's eyes were tightly closed, and he had fainted. His originally round cheekbones were now deeply sunken, as if they were pressed in by an invisible hand.
The bones at the cheekbones were raised high, like two abrupt hills, with a layer of frightening blue-black on them. Looking at his eyes, the pupils that should have been dark and bright had turned pale and lifeless, like two pearls that had lost their luster. Not only that, some strange spots similar to corpse spots appeared on his exposed arms. These spots were of different sizes and shapes, some were round, and some were like irregular polygons. They were distributed on the surface of the arms, either dark or light, forming a sharp contrast with the normal skin color around them, giving people a creepy feeling.
"His condition is really weird!" someone couldn't help but exclaimed, his voice full of surprise and confusion.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mu on the side frowned and said solemnly: "Indeed, this kind of disease has never appeared before. Judging from the symptoms we have so far, it does not match the characteristics of any epidemic we know." As he spoke, he lowered his head in thought, as if trying to dig out some useful clues from the depths of his memory to solve this mystery.
At this time, Shen Lishu, who was standing not far away, held his chin with his hand and said thoughtfully: "I always feel that this is not an epidemic. Although there are some similarities on the surface, careful observation can reveal that there are many differences. Maybe... this is not caused by a simple disease?" Her eyes flickered, as if she had thought of a possibility, but did not dare to draw conclusions easily.
Shen Lishu stood quietly in front of the bed, staring at the unconscious stranger in front of him. For some reason, a certain breath emanating from him made Shen Lishu feel inexplicably uncomfortable, and that breath seemed to carry a hint of chill that penetrated his bones.
"Let's go check on the others." Shen Lishu frowned and muttered softly. Then he slowly stood up and raised his foot to turn around and leave.
However, just as she took a step forward, suddenly, the person who was lying quietly on the bed suddenly opened his eyes as if he had been electrocuted. At the same time, a pale and powerful hand quickly stretched out and tightly grasped Shen Lishu's arm.
"Ah! What the hell!" Shen Lishu, who was caught off guard, was frightened by the sudden change and screamed out loud, her body shaking involuntarily. Instinctively, she used all her strength to forcefully shake off the hand that was grabbing her arm.
