Father's Day Apocalypse

Lu Shiying bought all the medicinal materials needed according to Qin Bai's medicine list. Qin Bai is the eldest son of the genius doctor Qin Mu. Lu Shiying first went to Nanzhou to suppress the bandits, while Qin Bai went directly to Cangqi.

Five days later, Meng Duo embarked on the road to Cangqi with 30 shi of grain and deer, and the long motorcade was speeding on the official road.After traveling for three days, when they were about to reach Cangqi, refugees began to appear in twos and threes on the originally empty official road.

The sallow and thin old man waved to the carriage and told them not to go any further. Many people died in front, and if they were infected by the plague, they would not survive.

The coachman behind Meng Duo asked, "Did you escape?"

The old man shook his head: "The family is there, where can we escape, it's time for us to come out and find something to eat today."

Lu Shiying asked, "Where is Cangqi County Magistrate?"

"The official also fell ill yesterday, and he specifically told us that when he met someone who was traveling, he advised you to turn around."

Meng Duo asked A Luo to take out a bag of dry food and hand it to the old man, and said to him, "We are grain merchants in Yubei Town, and we are here to deliver food to you."

The old man opened his eyes and said helplessly: "This, this", then his dry lips trembled slightly, unable to speak, he knelt down on the ground all of a sudden.

The coachman was a coolie in Yubei Town. He supported the old man and said in a rough voice: "Old man, I'm sorry, we are late."

When they entered Cangqi, the sky was already dark, and there were piles of fires burning in the distance, thick black smoke slantingly floating in the air, the old man surnamed Feng they met on the way urged them: "It's burning the corpse, hurry up!" Put on your mask and don't take it off when you're in town."

When Mengdo put the cloth on his face and asked Aluo to tie it behind his head, Lu Shiying took over the job, stood behind Mengdo, and slapped the silk cloth on the back of Mengdo's head with his slender fingers Tie a knot, and whisper to Meng Duo: "Wear the jade I gave you well, and you can't take it off even when you sleep, remember it."

Meng Duo touched his waist, "What about the national teacher?"

Lu Shiying's face was covered, and he looked at Meng Duo with a pair of narrow and handsome eyes: "Don't worry about me."

After passing the burning fire, there was thick gray-black dust on the ground, and the convoy was silent, only dozens of pairs of eyes looked at the dancing flames and the ashes on the ground, silently mourning amid the crackling burning.

Old man Feng repeated it several times, and told them: "Don't take off the mask, if you have a cough, dizziness and fever, go to Doctor Qin."

The people in the motorcade asked: "Is it useful to find him?"

Old Man Feng held the steamed buns Meng Duo gave carefully, and said, "Yes, those with mild symptoms were cured, and those who died were seriously ill. There are too many sick people. Doctor Qin, even a genius doctor, can't cure them." , and there is not enough medicine and manpower, so we can only take care of people with mild symptoms first."

The person who asked him said to old man Feng: "When we come, there will be people."

"If you can't help it, you can leave after delivering the things. If you are infected, it's really a crime." Old man Feng looked at Meng Duo, and repeated: "Just leave as soon as you deliver."

Li He has served as county magistrate in Cangqi for three years. He has not made any major achievements, nor has he made any mistakes. He once asked a matchmaker to help him find a girl. She doesn't need to be rich and expensive, just gentle and virtuous.

Li He has no lofty ambitions, he just wants to be a small county magistrate in Cangqi, marry a wife and have children, and his whole life will be over.

But the reality did not go as he wished, and disaster fell on the small town of Cangqi.The disaster relief money used by the imperial court for disaster relief came into his hands layer by layer, and there was only a small amount left. Li He took the money and went to other places to buy food, but the food was still not enough, and some people still starved to death people.

Sitting on the steps of the county yamen, Li He said politely to his master that the heavens will send great tasks to the people, and they must first suffer from their hearts and starve their bodies. Let us hold on, and everything will be fine when we pass .

Relying on the annual appropriation from the imperial court, Li He and Cang Qi lasted for three years, but in the end they couldn't go on anymore. After a severe drought, there must be a great plague. When the plague spread, Li He felt a burst of panic. At that time, he fainted, and there was not much left of the escaped illness. Li He took the rations he saved to visit the master, and the master said to him, my lord, you can go.

Li He thought, leaving here is a good way.

He gathered women and children who were not sick, and sent a few strong men to take them to Nanzhou. Nanzhou produces indigo dye, and there are many merchants coming and going from all over the world.

But unexpectedly, his intention was seen through by the Nanzhou prefect, and concealing the epidemic is a felony.

Li He thought to himself, why is he so unlucky, then he sighed and begged the prefect of Nanzhou to take in the victims.

Until this day, he himself also fell ill. Li He lay on the bed and asked Dr. Qin, "Isn't it easier to die from illness than to beheaded?"

Qin Bai prescribed the medicine with a big head, thinking that if the deer should not come again, he is a genius doctor and he will not be able to recover, "It is better to behead, it will happen in an instant. But if you are not sick and die, you will be sick and be dragged away." Go behead."

Li He thought it made sense, coughed for a while, and sighed: "I knew I wouldn't be an official."

The door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Li He saw a man in white clothes who looked like a banished fairy walk in, and said, "You are still so good at comforting people."

Li He was stunned for a moment, and heard Doctor Qin say: "Master National Teacher, you are finally here."

Meng Duo didn't ask people to unload the grain into the granary, but went to the market to rent an inn and store the rice in the inn's warehouse.

The inn has been closed for more than a year due to the drought. The boss saw bags of rice and his eyes glowed green. A Luo said to the boss, "This is food for disaster relief. If there is one bag missing, you can do it yourself."

Meng Duo came out of the kitchen of the inn, patted the dust on his palms, and said, "Look for the firewood, let's start the fire."

Lu Shiying took Qin Bai to count the medicinal materials needed. Qin Bai told him that with these things and manpower, and more precautions, Cang Qi's epidemic situation was basically solved. He also said that the epidemic situation was not serious, but it was contagious It is very strong. If you are in good health, you will be cured after drinking a few patches of medicine, but if you are in poor health, you will not be able to recover.

"Wear the Gu jade well, don't get infected, or you will be in trouble." Qin Bai said to the deer: "Your poison has not been cleared, it is best not to get sick."

Lu Shiying glanced at him, but didn't tell Qin Bai that the Gu jade had been given to Meng Duo.

White smoke rose slowly not far away, and the scent of rice porridge wafted faintly in the air. Qin Bai and Lu Shiying followed the scent and walked to the door of the inn.

Cangqi refugees in front of the gate lined up in an orderly manner under Meng Duo's arrangement to receive porridge.

Qin Bai said to the deer: "Master Meng is a kind man."

Li He drank the medicine for five days, and finally had the strength to get out of bed. When he went to see Lu Shiying, Wenwen weakly knelt down in front of Lu Shiying, and said, "Your official is guilty." Standing, looking up over the top of the head.

The result of Lu Shi's handling of Li He is that the merits and demerits are offset.

Qin Bai asked people to set up a shelf next to Meng Duo's porridge shed, and the person who received the porridge came to him to get a bowl of medicine. When there was no patient to check the pulse, Qin Bai went to chat with Meng Duo. Like most people, they are "Master Meng, the number one wealthy businessman in the capital, who only hears about his name but doesn't see anyone else."

However, Qin Bai's interest in Meng Duo came from Lu Shiying. Mr. Meng was the one who was molested by Lu Shiying. If it wasn't for Lu Shiying's fear that his poison would transfer to Meng Duo because of that night, Lu Shiying Should never say the name of Mengdo.

"What is Master Meng looking at?" Qin Bai saw Meng Duo leaning against the stone lion in front of the inn, looking down at the letter in his hand.

"Letter from home." With a smile on his lips, Meng Duo folded Zhong Qiyan's letter and put it in his arms. Zhong Qiyan told him that Jiang Xing's father had gone back, and that Jiang Xing wrote a good article during the test. Xing Du misses Meng Duo and asks when Meng Duo will go back.

Qin Bai remembered the folk rumors, and asked tentatively, "Is it a letter from Master Zhong?"

Meng Duo felt that it was rude for Qin Bai to inquire so clearly, so he nodded politely and reservedly, and went to help out with the porridge.

Qin Bai followed with a bowl of medicine, and said, "Master Meng, drink the medicine to avoid infection." Qin Bai felt that he could make Meng Duo feel a bit more shameless by doing the deer's response.

Qin Bai was right in diagnosing Cang Qi’s plague. It was not serious, but it was easily contagious. Several men Meng Duo brought to help from Yubei Town fell ill. Meng Duo originally wanted to send them home, but the patients Tell him that since he is already sick, he will be cured in Cangqi, and then stay and continue to help, and they will leave after the epidemic here is over.

As Meng Duo's bodyguard, A Luo also had some cold symptoms these days, so he hurriedly prescribed medicine to Doctor Qin, and took the initiative to stay away from Meng Duo and protect him in the dark.

Qin Bai prescribed medicine for A Luo, and said, "Master Meng is still in good health."

Meng Duo thought for a while and said, "Perhaps the gift from the national teacher played a role."

When Qin Bai saw the Gu jade that Meng Duo was carrying in his robe, his face became ugly.

Lu Shiying borrowed Li He's study to look over Cang Qi's "Zhen Zhi" in the past three years, dealing with the resettlement of Cang Qi's people after the disaster and the letters sent by the imperial court.

Qin Bai strode in, pushed the door creakingly, and Li He, who was assisting Lu Shiying, was taken aback.

"Master Li, let's go out first." Qin Bai suppressed his anger.

Li He's illness was not cured, and he was still coughing a little. He looked at the usually gentle doctor Qin in surprise, walked out and closed the door of the study.

Qin Bai said with a cold face, "Where's your Gu jade, show it to me."

Lu Shiying sat behind the desk, calmly turned over a page of the book, and said, "You already know."

Qin Bai said: "Lord Lu is so generous, if you say give away something that continues your life, you will give it away."

Lu Shiying looked down at the book: "It's not that serious, Qin Bai."

"It's not serious enough. If you do it again, even my father can't save you."

Lu Shiying put down the book, looked at Qin Bai, and said, "If it can't be saved, it will be my life."

Qin Bai pursed his lips tightly, looking desperately patient, after a while, let out a soft breath, "Is it worth it? Is he so good?"

Deer should say: "It's worth it."

Qin Bai showed a mocking smile, "But he also received a letter from Zhong Qiyan yesterday, saying it was a letter from home."

After saying this, Qin Bai immediately regretted it, because he saw the sadness on Lu Shiying's face, Qin Bai stood up unnaturally, stared at the book in Lu Shiying's hand for a while, and said hastily He said "I'll prescribe you medicine", and left the study as if escaping.
