Chapter 311 It should be a Gu worm

Dongming Ziyu innocently raised the scissors, tweezers, and trauma medicine in his hands, "Remove the stitches for your wound."

When Shangguan Ruoli came out from behind the screen, he was already dressed in a fine cotton blue male robe, refreshed, handsome, and as gentle as jade.

"Where are you going next?" Shangguan Ruoli unfurled his bun, picked up the comb, and prepared to re-tie his hair.

Dongming Ziyu was as long as jade, standing there with bright eyes watching her change her appearance.Letting out a long breath, he walked behind her and took the comb from her hand, "My lord will help you."

Because Shangguan Ruoli was injured, Dongming Ziyu has practiced very skillfully in pulling his hair these days.

His jade-like hand brushed her silky long hair, "This king, go out and have a look, you stay here, you are not allowed to go anywhere."

There was a plague outside, Dongming Ziyu didn't dare to let Shangguan Ruoli run around.

Shangguan Ruoli looked at him with raised eyebrows, "I'm going to follow, you know my skills, you won't be infected."

Dongming Ziyu sighed softly, and insisted: "Don't go, just don't go."

He is going to Sophora Flower Village, which is very dangerous.An invisible killer like the plague is hard to guard against, and he can't guarantee that Shangguan Ruoli is safe.

Shangguan Ruoli was also very stubborn, "Then I will go by myself!"

Dongming Ziyu's face turned cold in an instant, this dead woman was just disobedient, he felt that his lower limit dropped again and again.

It's just so frustrating!

Put her hair up in a bun and fix it with a simple sandalwood hairpin.

Shangguan Ruoli has an excellent characteristic, no matter if it is gold, silver, jade or broken copper and iron, when it comes to her, it can bring out a natural noble temperament.

Dongming Ziyu stepped out and said coldly, "Let's go!"

Shangguan Ruoli showed a triumphant smile, and followed behind him.

The two were strangers, so they had no choice but to travel in a carriage.

When the plague was rampant, everyone would run away if they could, hide if they could, and walk around the streets with unfamiliar faces, which could easily attract attention.

Sitting in the carriage, Shangguan Ruoli lifted the curtains and kept watching the people coming and going on the street.

There are running officers and soldiers, and there are struggling people.Crying and wailing sounded from time to time, and there was a panic atmosphere of the end of the world.

Dongming Ziyu asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Shangguan Ruoli remained expressionless, "If one day the end of the world comes, what will you do?"

Dongming Ziyu was taken aback, "The end of the world?"

Shangguan Ruoli explained: "Humanity is about to perish."

Dongming Ziyu pulled her into his arms, "If there is such a day, I will hug you, and then..."

The following words made Shangguan Ruoli blush, gritted his teeth and pinched the soft flesh of his waist, "Smelly shameless!"

Such a sad black topic actually dyed him yellow like this.

Dongming Ziyu laughed sullenly, and turned on the coquettish mode, "Your injury is healed, we will..."

"Get out!" Shangguan Ruoli really had no interest in flirting in this kind of atmosphere.

As a prince, Dongming Ziyu actually felt very heavy seeing the people like this, and after teasing Shangguan Ruoli a few words, he stopped making progress.

It took an hour to drive a horse-drawn carriage from Linzhou City to Huaihua Village in Yun County, and it was already night when they arrived.

Surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, it was originally a very peaceful and quiet small mountain village. Although it is poor, the people still live and work in peace and contentment.

But now?
This place has almost become a ghost village. The outbreak of the plague poisoned the entire village, causing the villagers to flee in panic, so that the plague germs spread everywhere, and it has become an unmanageable situation.

Five small mountain villages, including Huaihua Village, were surrounded by officers and soldiers, and it was not so easy to blatantly enter.

Dongming Ziyu came here just to check the situation, and didn't intend to go in himself.

Standing on the hill, Shangguan Ruoli stood side by side with him.

There are tents all around the mountain village, and there are heavily armed officers and soldiers living in them.

The mountain village is very small, with a total of more than 100 households in the five villages, so many simple shacks were temporarily built between the villages, and the people living in them were those who were quarantined.

It is said to be isolated, but in fact it is waiting to die.

In Huaihua Village, thick smoke billowed continuously, and those were corpses that were constantly being burned.

It was already a site for burning corpses, and the corpses were transported out of the city and sent there for collective destruction.At the same time, all the original evidence was burned.

"Death, in fact, is nothing to be afraid of. What is really scary is the fear and waiting before death." Shangguan Ruoli looked at Dongming Ziyu thoughtfully, "The inaction of the court has caused the people to panic, It also lost the hearts of the people. When the people despair or even hate the court, the court will come to an end."

Dongming Ziyu had a cold, expressionless face, "Every imperial court has corrupt officials who deceive their superiors and subordinates."

Shangguan Ruoli snorted coldly and said: "Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Living in a temple, in the peaceful and prosperous age, the common people can tolerate it. But now the situation forces the common people to have no way out. opposite."

Dongming Ziyu had to admit that Shangguan Ruoli, a woman, had better views on government affairs than those stupid old officials.

A warrior like Shangguan Tianxiao actually raised such a daughter with extraordinary knowledge.

Dongming Ziyu said: "When the food, herbs and doctors arrive, the panic will definitely ease."

Shangguan Ruoli nodded, "The current plan is to find out the cause of the plague and find out a cure for it."

Suddenly, she heard someone approaching.

Glancing at Dongming Ziyu, he found that his expression was indifferent, and he knew that it must be his people.

Sure enough, a ragged man who was no different from the disaster victims in terms of dress and appearance came out of the bushes.

Kneeling on the ground to kowtow to Dongming Ziyu: "This subordinate has seen the master."

"Get up and answer!" Dongming Ziyu folded his hands behind his back, and looked down at the visitor from above.

"Thank you, my lord!" The person who came kowtowed to thank him, stood up, bowed his head and reported respectfully: "Master, those patients initially had fever and vomiting, gradually became weak, vomited blood, and finally died..."

Dongming Ziyu nodded slightly, indicating that he was listening.

The man continued: "In the beginning, the corpse was no different from that of ordinary people who died of illness, but one time, my subordinates came across a corpse that had died in the mountain and was found to be smooth and almost translucent. The thing was wriggling. Cut the skin open with a knife, and there were worms the size of a grain of rice inside."

As he spoke, the man remembered the scene and retched.

Shangguan Ruoli immediately thought of Zazar's Gu, "Is it a Gu?"

The man nodded, "My subordinate guesses that it should be a Gu worm."
