Chapter 229
The city lord sighed, and there was clearly some worry in his eyes.

Gu Nianwei and Gong Muyun looked at each other, and they both saw a deep meaning in each other's eyes.The city lord of this city is the same as the city lord in Yurou Township who indulged officers and soldiers they saw before, but the same as the sky and the ground.

The city lord here, when the plague was raging, immediately chose the most effective isolation plan, and then tried his best to minimize the loss of the entire town.

This attitude of worrying about the country and the people made them appreciate it very much.

When the matter here is resolved, such an official who is willing to worry about the country should be promoted and reused.

"Block the way out of the city. All people are not allowed to leave the city for half a step until their illness is cured." Gu Nianwei pondered for a long while before ordering to the city lord.

The city lord nodded solemnly, "Princess, don't worry, all the roads out of the city have been blocked. Anyone who enters this city will have no chance to leave here."

He was negligent in failing to discover the information in time, and now, if he still doesn't take protective measures, even if Gu Nianwei and Gong Muyun don't do anything to him, he will blame himself and die.

Gu Nianwei then nodded slowly, "Go ahead, Wang Ye and I, let's look around."

When the city lord heard what Gu Nianwei said, he couldn't help showing a look of embarrassment on his face, "Princess, lord, the situation in the city is complicated now, if you go out, what if..."

The latter words, the city lord swallowed them back. If he was infected with the plague, he would not be able to afford it.

Gong Muyun could guess what was going on in his heart just by looking at the castellan's face and eyes. At that moment, Gong Muyun smiled lightly and waved to the castellan, "Don't worry, we'll be fine. .”

Naturally, this is because Gong Muyun has a kind of confidence in Gu Nianwei.

After all, when the Three Kingdoms came, he had caught up with an epidemic when he was facing the Three Kingdoms. At that time, it was because of the medicine that Gu Nianwei gave him in advance that he and the army survived the most difficult stage.

Since Gong Muyun said this, and he was his immediate boss, the City Lord naturally couldn't say anything more.

"Then, the lord and concubine should be more careful." The city lord bowed his hands to Gong Muyun and Gu Nianwei respectfully, and said, "There are many things in the city, and I will take my leave now!"

Gong Muyun nodded, and then the city lord bowed and retreated.

After the city lord went out, Gu Nianwei took out two cotton masks from the armhole, and handed one of them to Gong Muyun, "Wear it?"

Looking at the new gadget in his hand, Gong Muyun froze.He had never seen this thing before, let alone used it.

Under Gong Muyun's bewildered gaze, Gu Nianwei suddenly realized, and demonstrated in front of him.

After seeing the way Gu Nianwei wore the mask, Gong Muyun showed a clear expression.It turned out that this is such a thing.

Because they were going to the city to check the situation, even Gu Nianwei didn't dare to be careless. After all, the disease came like a mountain, and if they were really infected with the disease, let alone saving lives, they had to put themselves here.

The two put on masks and left the city lord's mansion, and when they set foot on the streets of the town again, it was almost evening.

In the evening, the fog was heavy, which added a bit of desolation and desolation to the town.

On the street, pedestrians in twos and threes supported each other to move forward, and everyone had that hopeless and pathological look on their faces.

Looking at these people, Gu Nianwei felt even more uncomfortable.

Gong Muyun walked beside her, patted her shoulder lightly, and said softly, "Don't worry, it will be fine."

In fact, the side effect of war would be something that Gong Muyun never thought of before.If he had known that it would be like this, he might have chosen another way to make Nanyu Kingdom surrender.

The two walked for a while, and stopped at the entrance of a dilapidated alley.

In this small alley, there are many people lying here and there.

Outermost is a family of three. The woman is pale and thin, holding a baby about seven or eight months old in her arms. The man is skinny and looks like he is tossed by illness.

The woman held the child, stared blankly at the unconscious man on the ground, and cried out, "Da Zhuang, wake up, look at the child again, look at the child again... you are gone!" , what can I do!"

The woman's cry was very desolate, and the child in her arms probably sensed the mother's sadness and despair, and grinned and began to cry.It's just that the child was probably suffering from illness and was very weak, even crying as if he was weak.

Seeing the child crying, and seeing the fate-like despair on the faces of all the people in the alley, Gu Nianwei felt his heart was stabbed hard by something.

Although she is a magic stick, she has never believed in evil.

She has always believed that human beings are the greatest creatures in the world, as long as people are willing, they can completely change their lives against the sky!

Therefore, she doesn't like those who always attribute their misfortunes to unfair fate, and don't like those who always like to complain and are full of negativity and despair about life.

While Gu Nian was in a daze, the woman's crying became louder and louder, and around the woman, those people with numb faces began to murmur.

Their words were surprisingly consistent, and they all thought that this woman was too pitiful.Naturally, there were also some discordant voices, thinking that it would be a relief for this man to die like this.

After all, under the torment of illness, every minute and every second feels like life is worse than death!
The woman's crying became smaller and smaller, and in the end, she couldn't hear it at all.

Gu Nian squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and found that the woman had closed her eyes, and her body seemed to be stiff, not moving at all.

Gu Nianwei's heart skipped a beat, and he wanted to step forward, but Gong Muyun gently grabbed his wrist.

Gu Nian turned his head slightly, and took a deep look at Gong Muyun, "Let go!"

Gong Muyun shook his head towards her, "They died of the disease, so don't go forward."

However, Gu Nianwei's eyes were red, "If you don't step forward, that child will die."

The child who was only seven or eight months old reminded her of the pair of children she left behind in the imperial capital.

Probably sensing Gu Nianwei's strangeness, Gong Muyun loosened her hand.

Gu Nianwei was free again, and immediately rushed to the woman, "How are you?"

I thought the woman was dead, but after Gu Nianwei asked this, the woman actually opened her eyes.

However, the woman looked at Gu Nianwei with despair, "My man is dead."

Gu Nianwei saw that the despair in the woman's eyes was slowly growing, and then, the woman's eyes became dull and rigid...

That feeling, like a person who was a little angry before, loses his anger in an instant!

When Gu Nianwei saw the situation of the woman, she immediately became anxious. She didn't care whether the other party had the disease or not, so she grabbed her shoulder and said, "You can't die!"

With these four simple words, Gu Nianwei actually used the technique of soul-stirring!
This woman cannot die!If she died, the child who was only seven or eight months old would have no choice but to die!

Probably because Gu Nianwei's soul-stirring technique was too fierce, the woman felt her heart flutter, a mouthful of thick blood spewed out, and her whole body's aura was exhausted to the extreme, but the vitality in her body slowly recovered come over.

"You can't die." Gu Nianwei muttered again, still with irresistible spiritual power in his voice, "You're dead, what should I do, child?!"

child?

The woman's eyes slowly fell on the child in her arms, "My child, my child...cough cough cough..."

After whispering a few words, the woman suddenly coughed violently. After coughing, a look of despair appeared on her face again, "Is there any chance for me to survive?"

"Yes!" Gu Nianwei said in a deep voice, staring deeply at the woman opposite.Also as a woman, Gu Nianwei is very clear about the truth that being a mother is strong. If this woman's sense of survival is strong enough, then it is entirely possible for her to survive.

But now, it is her child who can make this woman develop a deep sense of survival!
"I have a way to save you!" After Gu Nianwei said this, he couldn't help but help the woman feel her pulse, and after she felt her pulse, she said confidently, "You wait here, I'll be back soon !"

As soon as Gu Nianwei said that, he got up and walked towards the nearby medicine shop.

At this time of year, the medicine shops have long been closed.

"Wei'er, it's useless." Gong Muyun followed Gu Nianwei and said in a low voice, "The plague is raging here, and these medicine shops have already closed down to avoid getting into trouble. There will be no one."

Gu Nian snorted lightly, "It doesn't matter, what I'm looking for are medicinal materials, not people."

After saying this, Gu Nianwei kicked the closed shop door.

Gu Nianwei's force value was originally not high, but now, after this kick, that door was kicked away!
It can be seen that at this moment, Gu Nianwei has suppressed such strong rebellious emotions in his heart.

Kicking the door away, Gu Nianwei entered the shop without saying a word. According to the name of the medicinal materials written on each drawer, he quickly grabbed the seven medicinal materials, and then walked towards the back hall of the medicinal material shop.

According to her experience, almost all herbal medicine shops will have pots for brewing traditional Chinese medicine.

When Gu Nianwei and Gong Muyun broke in, a boy showed his face in the back hall, and then quickly ran to the second courtyard.

When Gu Nianwei walked to the back hall, he saw the medicine pot that was thrown on the ground.

Gu Nianwei put the medicine jar on the fire, took some water and put it in.Just sitting quietly in front of the medicine pot, I began to boil the medicinal materials myself.
