Cultivation starts from being a ghost

Chapter 116 The God of Creation
When he was still forty or fifty feet away from the opponent, he released the yellow hair, then pretended to search and moved forward, and slowly approached the hiding place of the male and female eyes.

The self-sustaining cultivation of male and female eyes is slightly higher than Qin Chuan's, and the invisibility technique should be able to hide him, so he didn't act rashly, but when Qin Chuan was five or six feet away from him, he felt something was wrong, but before he had it As soon as he moved, his feet sank suddenly, and a strong pulling force dragged him into the soil, and then he saw a fist in his pupils that grew from small to large, and then came into close contact with his forehead with a "bang" , After a burst of intense dizziness, he disappeared.

In fact, if Qin Chuan wants to kill the opponent, he doesn't need to be so troublesome at all, but he has to figure out two things, so he took the trouble to catch his life: the first thing, those archers are officers and soldiers, and it is not easy for ordinary people to mobilize officers and soldiers. If he can do it, he needs to know who the male and female eyes are to ambush them;

The second thing is that he needs to confirm whether it is related to You Guanghui and Yu Meng. Although these two people have no real skills, they give him a pretty good impression. If they are really two-faced and three-faced people, of course such people cannot continue to associate with each other. .

Halfway through the soul search, Zhou Zixu and others arrived, but when they saw that Qin Chuan had activated the Xuanshui restriction, they knew it was not appropriate to disturb them.

After a stick of incense, the soul search was over, and Qin Chuan got the information he wanted to know. First of all, this matter had nothing to do with You Guanghui. Secondly, he also found out the so-called mastermind behind the scenes, which he did not expect This person is actually Tian Hengzhi, the current No.14 prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty. The reason for setting up an ambush here is that the main targets are Long Jianhuo and Jia Renyi, which means that Qin Chuan, Zhou Zixu, and He Kui will be affected. pond fish.

Seeing that the formation was withdrawn, Zhou Zixu and the others gathered around and found the male and female eyes that had turned into fools. They probably guessed what was going on, "Brother Qin, what news did you get?"

"I have to ask Brother Long and Brother Jia about this!"

Long Jianhuo and Jia Renyi looked at each other and smiled wryly. From the beginning of the ambush, they had already guessed who did it, but Qin Chuan said so, and they had no choice but to talk about their past grievances.

In fact, things are not complicated. Long Jianhuo and Jia Renyi were in the world before joining the Qiqiaomen. They were considered great underworld figures in the Xinglong Mansion and spokesmen for the local forces; and Tian Hengzhi's fief is in Xinglong Mansion; one side is a local snake, the other side is a strong dragon, and conflicts inevitably occurred in some interests.

At first Tian Hengzhi felt that he belonged to the Northern Qi royal family, and with the backing of the Haoran Sect, he didn't pay attention to the local forces. As a result, he suffered a big loss and almost lost his life. However, he gradually gained the upper hand. Huo and the others couldn't bear the pressure, so they had to go far away, and the fourteenth prince heard the male and female eyes talk about seeing Long Jianhuo, and the old resentment came back to his heart, so today's ambush came.

"...The three of you have been implicated because of our affairs this time, and all the trophies should be an apology!"

"Hehe, then we'll be impolite!" Zhou Zixu felt that he had been injured for no reason, and he deserved some benefits.

Qin Chuan didn't like this, but Long Jianhuo and Jia Renyi insisted on sending them off, so he didn't refuse any more.

To the five of them, this incident was just a small incident without any danger. In order to prevent complications, they didn't make any further stops, and they got off the official road and continued on their way.

Spring is suitable for traveling, and it is easy to enjoy the scenery along the way. Half a month later, they suddenly encountered a few refugees on the road. It stands to reason that it is the spring plowing season, and the weather is considered to be good, so there should be no refugees.

After a little inquiring, I found out what happened. It turned out that there was a plague in several prefectures and counties near Yujing, but this sudden news made the five people's good mood come to naught.

Everyone knows what the plague is. It may not be a big deal to the monks, because their immunity is strong, and the symptoms of discomfort can be detected in time, so very few immortal cultivators die due to illness, but for ordinary people Said, that is a very fatal thing.

Soon, they discovered that officers and soldiers were stationed on both sides of the road, strictly controlling the flow of people, and monks of the Haoran Sect took turns performing the Vision Qi Technique. Once they found symptoms of patients, they were immediately ordered to take them away for isolation.

This is of course the right thing to do, and if the plague spreads, it will have disastrous consequences.

Those who planned to go to Yujing to do business immediately chose to return or make a detour. After all, no one wanted to take the risk. The five of them also hesitated, but they felt that as long as they paid attention to it, the problem should not be serious, so they continued on their way after a little discussion .

When I passed by a small county called Xinyang County, I saw a very tragic scene. The street was lifeless. A child was crying for his mother on the street. lingering by the wall...

The tightly wrapped officials were burning the corpses. The foul-smelling corpses were carried out from the house, and quickly piled up like a hill. A person who was not completely dead was also thrown into the pile of corpses. Climbing away from here, but I have no strength in my body, I can only wait for death to come!
"What a terrible plague, you can see that the symptoms of those patients should undoubtedly be malaria!" Zhou Zixu pointed to the two patients who were wobbling non-stop.

"Yeah, if it wasn't for the damn malaria, I wouldn't have been a beggar on the street when I was young..." Seeing the crying child, Jia Renyi seemed to be reminded of his childhood memories.

Qin Chuan did not pay attention to what they said. At this time, he was trying to recall the method of treating malaria in his previous life. Even if he knew the production method of those so-called special medicines, he did not have the production conditions, but there were two things he clearly remembered. Effective treatment of malaria, one is artemisinin extracted from Artemisia annua, and the other is quinine extracted from cinchona tree.

Artemisia annua is called Qingju in this world, and cinchona tree is called Jinqian tree. These two kinds of materials are used in "Jiedu Dan" and "Hua'er Dan" respectively. I think these two kinds of pills have certain effects on treating malaria. It's just that although these two kinds of elixirs are ordinary elixirs, it is impossible to mass-produce them on a large scale. If the most primitive method is used, the effect will be worse, but it is better than no medicine to cure, right?

Qin Chuan is not a merciful saint, but if he can, he can help those ordinary people who are dying. Of course, he also intends to take this opportunity to bring some private goods to see if the previous idea works.

"Brother Zhou, Brother Jia, this place is not far from Yujing. I want to stay in Xinyang County for a few days. You go to Fangshi in Yujing first. You can handle the matter of the magic weapon at your discretion!"

"Brother Qin, if you want to save someone, I'd like to stay with you!" Jia Renyi said first.

"I'll stay too!" Long Jianhuo and Jia Renyi were like good friends, always inseparable.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zixu, who has always been good at calculation and has no profit, is also willing to stay. Only He Kui is reluctant, but he doesn't want to go on the road alone, so all five of them stayed.

The county official of Xinyang County was surnamed Wang. At this time, the county official Wang was sitting in the study with his eyes blank. It was not that he also had malaria, but that he was worried about being dismissed and investigated. This time, Xinyang County was the hardest hit area of ​​the plague. There were so many people who died, and he might not be able to get away with the charge of poor management. When the six gods were at a loss, suddenly a yamen servant walked in.

"Qi report to the county lord, there is a captain passing by here and wants to see you!"

"Oh, where is he the captain?"

"It's Lieutenant Guo Yi who works at the border!"

"So it's a casual official of the fifth grade!" Wang Xianzun immediately lost interest. He was bored now, and he didn't have the heart to see the guests. He was just about to find an excuse to dismiss him, but suddenly his heart moved, "He didn't say what he wanted to do with me. ?"

Before the servant could answer, a cold voice came from outside the study, "Xianzun Wang, why don't you take people to fight the plague, and still have the mood to stay in the study and drink tea?"

"Who are you?" Wang Xian stood up abruptly.

An ordinary-looking, somewhat honest young man walked into the study, holding a plate of documents and a small seal in his hand, Wang Xianzun hesitated, took it, and after a few glances, a smile appeared on his face immediately, "It turns out that it's Mr. Qin. I'm so disrespectful and disrespectful!"

It was Qin Chuan who came. Since he wanted to get involved in the prevention and control of the plague, no one would answer his empty words, but it was different if he had an official position, so he remembered the illusory title of the five-rank Guoyi captain.

The Northern Qi State emphasizes literature over martial arts. Although it is a false military title, it is far less noble than the county dignitary, but it is still the fifth rank, which is several levels higher than the seventh rank. If he does not meet, Wang Xianzun does not need to give him face, but Since they met each other, they had to abide by official etiquette, so Wang Xianzun had to bow his hands and salute.

"Forget it, I don't want to talk nonsense with you. The plague outside is so serious, can Wang County have any countermeasures?"

Wang Xianzun's fat face immediately revealed a bitter look, "Master Qin, Xinyang County is a hard-hit area, and the prevention and control force is weak. The only few doctors have been ordered by me. Now the medicine is in short supply, so I sent it to the state capital There has been no news of the person who bought the medicine so far, and the paperwork for help has already been handed in, but... oh..."

"It's not an option for you to sit and wait like this. The more people die, you, the county lord, are probably also to blame for it?"

Being able to become the majesty of a county, the IQ will naturally not be too low. Hearing something in Qin Chuan's words, he couldn't help showing hope in his eyes, "Could Lord Qin have a way?"

"I have some ideas, and if you make achievements, it will be yours, but you need to cooperate fully, otherwise it will be treated as if I didn't say anything!"

Wang Xianzun already gave up hope. Hearing that there is a way, he is naturally willing to try. Even if it fails, the situation will not be worse. Just treat it as a dead horse and a living horse doctor!
In an instant, he made up his mind, "Okay, I am willing to cooperate with all my strength!"

"Well, that's good. First, mobilize the power of the whole county to collect the bark and stems of chrysanthemum and golden cypress trees; second, make a large number of face masks and distribute them, and everyone must wear them; third, drinking water It must be boiled..."

Qin Chuan listed more than a dozen of them based on his experience in epidemic prevention in his previous life. At first, Wang Xianzun still had an attitude of listening to them. Later, the more he listened, the brighter his eyes became, and he hurriedly picked up a paper to write down.

"...and the most important one. The medicinal porridge I provide is passed down by 'Du'er Xingjun'. Before taking it, it needs devout prayers to be effective. Therefore, every porridge point must enshrine the statue of Xingjun and his old man. !"

"Du'er Xingjun?" Wang Xianzun was suspicious for a while, he had never heard of such a fairy.

"Just do what I say, and you'll know if it works or not!" Qin Chuan smiled slightly, and took out a wooden statue. If someone who travels through sees it, he will exclaim in surprise: Isn't this so special? Guanyin Bodhisattva, how could it appear in this world?

In fact, he originally wanted to get a statue of Tathagata Buddha or Jesus, but these two were a bit out of touch, so he replaced it with a Bodhisattva.
