The pastoral concubine of space

Chapter 543
Just as the magistrate was about to say, 'Then invite people in soon', he heard several footsteps coming from outside, and when he looked up, he realized that they were some unfamiliar faces.

Could it be that these people are from the Hunyuan Sect?The magistrate looked at the leader who seemed to be no older than a weak crown, and the young men behind him who were of the same age, or even looked younger, couldn't help but paused.

But after thinking about it, these immortal elders will live forever in the future. Even if they live to be seventy or eighty, they will still look like young people. Looking young doesn't mean they are unreliable.

Hunyuanzong is the sect founded by His Royal Highness Chen Wang, and their Great Zhou is the Feng family's world, so they wouldn't cheat their own people, right?

The magistrate quickly suppressed the doubts in his heart, he didn't care that the person in front of him might be younger than himself, he greeted him politely and respectfully, and asked the leader: "May I ask what is the name of this elder?"

The young man said lightly: "Tang Jiu."

The people who came were none other than Tang Jiu and Wen Hu, several inner disciples.

The magistrate made a gesture of invitation: "It turns out that it is Tang Xianzhang, please come inside, I will let people prepare a table of meals for you Xianzhang to welcome the wind—"

"No need." Tang Jiu waved his hand and went straight to the point: "Just report the situation in the city, including which places in the surrounding towns have the largest number of poisonous corpses and zombies. It is not too late. We will go to clean up after the location is determined."

The magistrate couldn't help being overjoyed after hearing this, it was a happy event for him to solve the trouble as soon as possible, the people sent by His Royal Highness Chen Wang really did practical things, and they didn't procrastinate at all.

The magistrate did not say that he is an official who loves the people like a son, but he also felt very sad about what happened under his rule. He quickly asked the people below to fetch the surrounding map, welcomed Tang Jiu and others into the front hall, and explained to them current situation.

When the poisonous corpse crisis broke out in Pingan Mansion, everyone didn't know that these poisonous corpses would not die if they attacked the vital points of the heart. They also insisted on solving the few poisonous corpses that appeared, but during the period, the poisonous corpses killed and injured many people. At first, they didn't know that the people bitten by the poisonous corpses would turn into zombies and continue to attack people. The common people were settled in one place, and other soldiers were arranged in the barracks as a matter of course. In the end, these people transformed into corpses, violently biting more people, directly increasing the injured area several times, and a zombie crisis broke out in the city.

Now in the entire Fucheng, about half of the people are still alive, and the rest are all wandering around the city as zombies. Some zombies have been hacked to death by the angry people, but more are constantly making companions and growing the team.

After all, not all the people are very courageous, most of them hide in their own homes, or gather in some mansions to defend against zombies.

"After the chaos in the army camp, I was too busy to come to the rescue. Zombies also appeared in the government office, which led to a shortage of officials. I wanted to save the people from fire and water, but I couldn't do what I wanted." The magistrate was ashamed and frustrated.

Tang Jiu had no intention of comforting the prefect, but asked, "Do you know the situation of other cities and villages around the prefecture?"

The magistrate wiped his face, took a deep breath to adjust his mood, and said seriously: "There are two sub-cities on the left and right of Fucheng, and the officials from the yamen over there sent letters two days ago, and the situation is even more serious than Fucheng. More than half of the people died, and less than one-third of the people alive, but these people were gathered in two or three places anyway, and there are granaries in the city to ensure that there is no danger of starvation for the time being. Go out for a walk, come back with an injury, you should be able to hold on for the time being, but other villages and towns..." Thinking of the report from the people below, the magistrate's face turned pale.

"There are four towns around Fucheng, and more than 20 villages of different sizes. Among them, two towns and eight villages have been confirmed to be occupied. Now they are surrounded by people who have been turned into monsters. Anyone who approaches them will be swarmed by them. To, was bitten beyond recognition in an instant..."

This time, Feng Zhaorui, who was also in Tang Jiu's team like Wen Hu Qichen, couldn't help interrupting him, "You mean that all the people in these places... have died?"

The magistrate in front of me was promoted last year because of his outstanding political achievements, and he has not returned to Beijing to report on his duties, and has no chance to meet the prince, so he did not recognize Feng Zhaorui, but said frankly: "That's not true, there are still some People escaped before the complete fall of these villages and towns, and now they are either in the other two towns or in the prefecture, but the total number is only one or two out of ten."

In other words, [-] to [-]% of the people are still dead, and these people have become zombies, only a few of them have been completely eliminated, and most of them are still wandering in those towns, waiting for their food. If no one approaches them all the time, It won't be long before it will smell like strangers, and it will be like other towns where many people gather, and there will also be a zombie siege here.

Xiao Yunchu told them about the scene before they set off, and they felt their scalps go numb just by imagining it for a while, and they made up their minds that they must not let such a thing happen!
After inquiring clearly, Tang Jiu first told the magistrate how to arrange the people who were bitten, and listened to the magistrate's meaning. After finding out that once bitten, they would eventually become monsters. When a zombie bites, other living people will rush over and beat him to death without waiting for the official to do anything. It wasn't a zombie at all. Those who were killed by mistake made their relatives and friends even crazier. The prefect was devastated just to stabilize the similar chaos.

Tang Jiu took out a part of the batch of detoxification pills he brought over and handed it to him, saying: "Try to gather the people scattered in the city together, and ask the officials to strictly guard them from wandering around. Once they leave and come back, no matter what People of high or low status, men, women, old and young, all have to undergo a body check. Those who are unwilling to do the check will not be released. Those who are injured will be settled together. First, determine whether the injury was caused by a zombie. If so, compare these pills with one to ten Divide the proportion of the liquid with water and feed it to the injured, as long as the corpse has not already started, after taking the potion, you will be safe."

"Is this true!? There is such a magic medicine!?" The magistrate was so excited that tears were about to burst into tears. If he had known that there was such a magic medicine, how could so many people have died before!
But the magistrate didn't dare to blame Hunyuanzong's people for coming too late. Who would have thought that such a disaster that was unimaginable in the past would suddenly erupt?It is a blessing in misfortune that there is a way to remedy it so that the people who are still alive will not continue to lose.
