I was beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 years

Chapter 46: Stop raising it, you will die if you keep it anymore.

Medieval commoner bedrooms were simple and functional.

In a corner of the room, Gadri was lying on a simple wooden bed, which was covered with rough linen straw mats and the bedding was made of heavy wool.

There is an oil lamp on a simple wooden bedside table next to it. In the corner of the room, there is a small and simple stove, used for heating and cooking. Next to the stove is a simple cooking utensil rack with ceramic dishes placed on it. and simple kitchen utensils such as spatulas.

The whole room smelled faintly of wood and hay.

Gadri felt uncomfortable all over, shivering with chills, but his whole body felt as if it was being roasted by a stove, and he felt hot all over.

There are faint black lumps on the body.

With the sound of coughing, the wife outside the bedroom looked scared and did not dare to approach.

Yesterday, Ms. Raya ordered everyone to be quarantined at home and not allowed to go out. Today, her husband Gadri started to act strange. Gadri seemed to be in good health yesterday.

The unknown is always scary. She heard that this was the Black Death. Miss Raya had suffered from this disease, but she was saved.

She wanted to go out to the inner fort for help, but as soon as she went out, she was driven back by patrolling guards with sticks.

Now she was at a loss and could only watch her husband coughing painfully in bed.

At this moment, Henry and another guard outside the house approached the window. When his wife saw it, she quickly came to the window and pulled the window bars with both hands, in a begging tone.

"Okay, my husband is sick. Can you find a doctor to save my husband?"

"Don't worry, I will save your husband." Henry reassured, "Tell me first, how many people are in your family?"

"what?"

"Let me ask you, how many people are in your family?"

"It's just me and my husband."

"Go get two bowls."

The wife followed the instructions in a daze and placed the two bowls on the window rail. One of the guards took the bowls and took them to a designated location on the street. At the designated location, there was a large pot of steaming soup.

The guard took two bowls of soup and returned to the window railing and handed them in.

Henry said calmly: "This soup is for you and your husband. You both need to drink it."

"Is it enough to drink this decoction?"

"Miss Raya comes here this way, don't worry."

The other guard was not as patient as Henry and began to pick up a diluted alcohol bottle and disinfect around the house.

When the wife smelled the smell of alcohol, she suddenly panicked, thinking that the guards were going to set their house on fire and burn them to death, and she could hardly hold the soup in her hand.

"Hey, don't scream. We are disinfecting them to prevent the spread of the Black Death."

After Henry's careful and comforting explanation, his wife felt relieved.

"After you two drink the decoction, pack the necessary things. I will take you and your husband to the isolation area for treatment later."

The Black Death was not the only family in Gadri in Raya Town that was infected with the Black Death. Just like Xu Siling and Fei'er had bet, the Black Death was spreading everywhere, and less than half of the residential area in Raya Town had been destroyed.

The whole family of those infected with the Black Death must be moved to an isolation area for treatment. This was Miss Raya's order yesterday.

After the guards left, Gadri slowly drank the decoction with the help of his wife.

The wife didn't know if it was her imagination, but after Gadri drank the decoction, his coughing became less severe and his body no longer trembled.

After taking good care of Gadri, the wife saw how effective the decoction was and thought of leaving her bowl of decoction to her husband to drink later.

Just when his wife got up to pack her luggage, Gadri woke up.

"Why are you awake?"

"I feel so bad, but what you fed me just now makes me feel better."

"It's the soup and medicine that the guards came to deliver after they found out you were sick. If you don't feel well, rest for a while. I'll pack the important luggage first, and we'll move to the isolation area later. I also left an extra soup for you. If you feel uncomfortable, drink it again.”

Although Gadri was confused, his mind was still spinning.

"Now that the disease has spread so widely, there are definitely not many decoctions that can treat it. How can we give an extra pair of decoctions?"

The wife then explained: "The guard said that the other bowl of soup was for me, but I was fine, so I wanted to leave it for you to drink."

Gadri frowned and coughed, pointing at his wife.

"No need to leave the soup to me, drink it quickly!"

"I want to leave it to you"

"Drink as soon as I let you drink!"

Under Gadri's scolding, his wife reluctantly drank the soup.

He was not as short-sighted as his wife. When he felt something was wrong with his body, he knew that he was infected with the Black Death.

Of course he was panicked when he got the Black Death. After all, it was spreading outside, and no one who got the Black Death survived.

But Raya Town is different. Didn’t Miss Raya survive the Black Death?

And now all the orders and arrangements in Raya Town are made by Miss Raya. I believe that these are all within Miss Raya's consideration.

Since the guard said that the bowl of soup was for his wife, then the wife had to drink it.

He was so panicked that he didn't dare to make too many calculations, so he just had to be obedient for now.

However, he could feel that his body was much more comfortable, at least he was not shivering from the cold.

After a while, there were guards and several attendants who wanted to move Gadri and the two to the isolation area.

Before the transfer, the attendant carried a bottle of diluted alcohol and entered the house to disinfect them in front of Gadri and the other two. After the disinfecting was completed, he closed the door and left.

At the same time, only one gate of Raya Town was opened.Huge walls stood on both sides of the city gate, inlaid with solid stones, forming a huge arched doorway.

There is a defensive overhead walkway above the door opening, and a pair of huge wooden and iron double-wing doors above the city gate, which can be opened or closed quickly. The doors are equipped with powerful iron chains and huge iron door latches to ensure the safety of the city gate.

In front of the city gate is a wide moat with clear water, like a natural barrier. A strong suspension bridge is built on the river, which will only be lowered when necessary to facilitate entry and exit from the town.

Under the order of Miss Raya, only entry and exit are allowed in Raya Town. Many people living on the edge of the town were notified yesterday to move into the observation area.

Now there are two queues at the city gate. With the guards maintaining order, everyone lines up as far as possible two meters apart.

After Xu Siling fully armed himself, he walked to the city gate with a bottle of alcohol in hand. When he saw many fleeing outsiders lining up, he couldn't help but be speechless.

There are so many people queuing up. If the number of people is still increasing, then I don’t know if the observation area and isolation area planned just yesterday will be enough to accommodate them.

Of course Xu Siling didn't have to queue. He passed by from one side. The outsiders who were waiting in line walked straight past Xu Siling when they saw that Xu Siling didn't queue up. They were all curious about his identity.

Eight guards were arranged at the city gate, but when I came to the door, it seemed that there were not enough.

On the one hand, there is a large number of people who need to maintain order. On the other hand, after inspection and release, guards need to lead them to the observation area or isolation area.

If the city gate had more people, there wouldn't be such a long queue.

It is a pity that if production work is not resumed in Raya Town, the manpower problem will not be solved.

When the guards saw Xu Siling coming, they all made way out, and some guards took the initiative to say hello.

Although Xu Siling in the inner castle had a conflict with a guard yesterday, he finally defended the guard and won the hearts of many guards.

Xu Siling was not in a hurry to leave and checked at the door to see how the guards were working.

The guard motioned for a family of three to come in front of them and began to check according to the procedures.

"Where did it come from?"

"Mr. Guard, we escaped from Kenya Town."

"Among the three of you, does anyone have a lump or ulcer on the body?"

The guard stared at the man with his sharp eyes.

The man swallowed his saliva and was about to answer when the guard continued.

"I will only ask once. If you deliberately hide it and I find out, you will not be able to enter Raya Town. There will even be extremely severe punishment!"

The man shook his head quickly: "No, none of our family members have lumps on their bodies. You can check them."

As the man was about to take off his shirt, the guard interrupted his move.

Yesterday, the guards had been trained according to the inspection process mentioned by Xu Siling, and they knew that the Black Death had an incubation period. In particular, it was not necessary to check the body to confirm whether outsiders had the Black Death.

"No need to take off your clothes."

The man was stunned: "Don't you need to check?"

"Does anyone in your family feel chest pain and cough?"

After receiving the man's denial, the guard asked the family whether they coughed up blood. After several questions in a row.

The guard looked up and down at the family of three in front of him. Although their faces were gray and their mental state was poor, they didn't look like they were sick.

He came closer to the man and sniffed lightly. He didn't smell the damn rat smell, and then nodded.

Xu Siling watched the guards check carefully without fear of infection, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

There is no way, it is inevitable that the guards soldiers in Raya Town will be infected with the Black Death.

But if they drink Cimicifuga Turtle Armor Decoction in advance, even if they are infected, they will not feel particularly uncomfortable. They will only have symptoms of fever, chills, chest tightness, and lumps. As long as they survive for a few days, their health will gradually improve. .

The guard shouted to the family of three: "After inspection, you will be allowed to enter Raya Town."

The family of three had no time to be happy before they were blocked by the words of the guard behind them.

"However, there are many things to pay attention to when entering a town. I will tell you now. If you don't accept it, you can turn around and leave."

"First of all, after entering the town, we will place you in an open house in the observation area. It is not big, but big enough for the three of you. Anyway, you will be observed for five days. If you show no signs of illness within five days, I can let you in. Raya Town Center.”

The guards gave them all the precautions. For example, if you live in an open-top house in the observation area, you are not allowed to come out without permission, and you are not allowed to have contact with other people in the observation area. Moreover, even if you are infected with the Black Death, Raya Town will provide medicine for treatment. them.

Although the family of three was confused, they all accepted it.

Especially when I heard that even if they got infected and fell ill, Raya Town would not give up on them, I felt very comfortable.

In most cities in the South, people infected with the Black Death were either buried alive or died at home without care, without even a funeral anyway.

I didn't expect that I could still receive treatment in Raya Town, although I didn't know if it could be cured.

Seeing that the three members of the family nodded in acceptance after listening to the precautions, the guard stopped talking and motioned for them to follow him out of the city gate and to the observation area in Raya Town.

Seeing that the guards had done a good job in checking the process, Xu Siling was about to leave when suddenly there was a dispute at the city gate.

When he turned around, he saw that the guard was having an argument with someone.

"Get out of Raya Town! Stay away!"

"Why, why can't someone just go in if they have a lump on their body? Why can't I go in?"

The person who had an argument with the guard had some tattered clothes, dirty clothes, messy hair, and cloudy eyes.

The guard was so afraid that he raised his sword with both hands to signal him to retreat.

"You are different from them. Festering has begun on your body. According to the order of the lord of Raya Town! People with ulcers on their bodies, as well as those who do not have lumps on their bodies but cough up blood and turn blue on the face, are not allowed to enter Raya Town!"
