Zhang Buyi nodded and said: "I know, let's go in first!"

Hearing this, Kou Mingjian hesitated for a moment and said: "I heard that this epidemic is very raging, and even low-level monks are easily infected."

"I know!" Zhang Buyi paused and replied expressionlessly.

Seeing that Zhang Buyi had no intention of retreating, Kou Mingjian took out a map with some marks on it and said:

"Sir, you can go to these places. This is where several famous doctors in Zhezhou gather. You can also go to Fucheng, but there has been no news from Fucheng for three days."

Zhang Buyi looked at it, turned over his hand and put away the map, and said: "Okay, you can continue to guard the gate!"

As he spoke, Zhang Buyi led Zhou Shuren through the checkpoint and entered Zhezhou.

······

Zhang Buyi and the two walked some distance further. According to the map, they found an official post on a pipeline to receive doctors entering Jinzhou.

It may be that the two of them did not belong to the official organization that came to the rescue, so they did not come with the batch. When they arrived at the official post, it was empty, except for the errands, and there was no one there.

Zhang Buyi took out his token and expressed his intention to stay one night.

······

"Master!"

"Senior Chen?"

Early the next morning, after a night's rest, the two of them had just left the official post office when they bumped into Chen Lianfang, who had been waiting outside for who knows how long. One of them looked surprised, the other a little surprised.

"Master, why are you here?" Zhang Buyi was confused at first, and then asked and answered himself: "That's right, most of the Xia Dynasty will probably know about such a big thing, how could you not receive the news, Master?

"

"Let's go to the epidemic area and see what kind of approach it is." Chen Lianfang said in a concise and concise manner with an indifferent expression on his face.

"Well, the tree man and I have the same plan!" Zhang Buyi replied.

Zhou Shuren originally wanted to say hello and chat a few words out of habit, but seeing Chen Lianfang's attitude, his lips moved and he did not say the last word.

"Two officials, here's your horse." At this time, the official postman took the horses out from the backyard.

Zhou Shuren looked at the two horses and three people, and said hesitantly: "Second uncle, you and I can ride together!"

Zhang Buyi shook his head with a smile and said, "No need!"

As he spoke, he looked down at the little fox with only one head exposed in his arms and said, "Little guy, it's your turn to do your work!"

"Chirp!"

As the little fox screamed, it emerged from Zhang Buyi's lapel and turned into a tall white fox, with a strong body and a strong body.

【Fate +1!】

'This sheep is really a little bald! It took several days of teasing to get some hair back!'

Zhang Buyi turned over on his back, and under Zhou Shuren's envious eyes, he said, "Let's go!"

Then the two of them got on their horses and headed straight for Jinzhou Mansion.

······

The three of them rode forward for a while, and when they were still some distance away from Jinzhou Mansion, they stopped at a village on the outskirts of the city.

The village looked unusually quiet, but it was not deserted. It was obvious that there should have been people before. But now it was completely silent, with dark crows on the dead trees and unknown carrion birds circling in the sky.

The three of them got off the horse, and the little fox turned into the size of a palm and got into Zhang Buyi's pocket. Zhou Shuren and Chen Lianfang led the horses and walked into the village carefully.

"Ugh... this smell!" As soon as they entered the village, a faint rancid smell, mixed with an indescribable disgusting smell, went straight into the noses of the three of them. Zhou Shuren couldn't help but reach out and slap the tip of his nose.

fan.

"Be careful, this seems to be a disease!" At this time, Chen Lianfang's expression moved slightly, and he took the initiative to remind him in a rare initiative.

Zhou Shuren's complexion changed slightly, his magic power fluctuated slightly, and he was cut off from direct contact with the outside world.

"quack······"

"Chirp..."

The three of them stepped into the village, breaking the silence of the village. Several pitch-black crows flew in all directions, and several mice the size of weasels fled with some small mice.

Zhang Buyi and Zhou Shuren opened several village houses with unsightly expressions on their faces, and what they saw were either fresh bones full of bite marks, or corpses exuding a foul odor.

A few people quickly walked around the small village and found no living person. Everyone died at home. Judging from the traces, they were quite painful before death.

"It's the Black Death!" After a long time, Chen Lianfang checked several corpses and said with a frown: "Normally, this disease shouldn't suddenly break out like this?"

"Black Death?" Zhou Shuren looked at Chen Lianfang in confusion. He had never heard of this disease. Chen Lianfang frowned and inspected the corpse, ignoring Zhou Shuren.

"It's the plague." Zhang Buyi explained.

"Plague!!! How dare the prefect of Jinzhou conceal the emergence of such a serious epidemic and not immediately notify the imperial doctors in Beijing to suppress it?!" Zhou Shuren said in horror.

Zhang Buyi shook his head, and Chen Lianfang had already stood up and said: "Let's go to Fucheng to have a look."

······

"Senior Chen, can this be done? I heard that every plague outbreak is different. It requires an on-site inspection, diagnosis and multi-party consultation by the imperial doctor in Beijing before a large-scale life-saving decoction can be produced." Zhou Shuren asked cautiously, worried.

As inherited from the Zhou family and traveling around for two months, although his medical skills are pretty good, they are only for a traveling doctor. In the face of such a serious epidemic, there is nothing he can do.

"Don't worry, Master has extensive knowledge and has read almost all the books on Taoist medicine in his sect. I remember that there is a prescription for treating plague in Qian Jin Fang.

Although it may be different, if you find a sick person, with Master's medical skills, you should be able to treat him in a day or two at most." Zhang Buyi said.

"This...Second Uncle, do you think I don't know anything? Is it really so simple that I still need to consult with the imperial doctor from Beijing?" Zhou Shuren said speechlessly.

Zhang Buyi glanced at Zhou Shuren and said, "That's because you don't know what level of Taoist doctor your master is."

Hearing this, Zhou Shuren looked at Chen Lianfang in front of him again. Although the gap in cultivation was not clear,... Senior Chen should not have had his second turn yet, right?

Of course, what Zhang Buyi did not say is that in addition to ordinary prescriptions for medicine, due to modern medicine, his magic power can completely simulate several simple and common antibiotics, such as penicillin and streptomycin.

As long as the condition is determined, it shouldn't be difficult to treat Chen Lianfang on the spot, but it may be a bit difficult to come up with a prescription and treat the whole Jinzhou.

After all, in Daxia now, even if Zhang Buyi simulates all the principles with his magic power, it is impossible to produce large-scale antibiotics in a short time.

······

After a while, the three of them arrived at Jinzhou Mansion.

It was already midnight, no one was entering the city, and there were not many people standing guard at the door. It seemed that leaving the city was completely prohibited.

Zhang Buyi first threw out the token, then showed his identity as a doctor, and was easily let into the city.

Rejecting the guard's offer to lead the way, the three of them went straight to the scene instead of going to a centralized location to report first and then consulting with doctors of unknown abilities like the doctors the officials had called for.

In fact, there is no need to look for any epidemic area. The moment they entered Jinzhou Mansion, not to mention Zhang Buyi and Chen Lianfang, even the apprentice Zhou Shuren frowned.

The three of them clearly felt that the air in Jinzhou City seemed to be unusually turbid. This was not an illusion, but was mixed with a strong aura of illness.

The lively Jinzhou Mansion has become extremely desolate in less than half a month. There are few people on the streets, and a sense of desolation and dilapidation has come over it, making it even more depressed than a frontier city during the war.

Occasionally I saw two pedestrians in a hurry. Apart from that, the people I saw the most were dying patients lying on the roadside or leaning in front of their homes. Their foreheads were hot, their cheeks were red and swollen, they were coughing constantly.

"What on earth did the prefect of Jinzhou do? How could the plague break out like this in such a short period of time, with even the whole city being infected?" Zhou Shuren frowned as he looked at the situation that was completely out of control.

Zhang Buyi remained silent, while Chen Lianfang had already begun to explore the patients who were not dead yet. His magical aura was constantly changing, and he began to try treatment methods.

Seeing this, Zhou Shuren stopped talking and started to examine the patient as well.

"Be careful, this disease looks simple, but it breaks out so quickly and sweeps across a whole state. I always feel that it is not simple." Zhang Buyi said to Zhou Shuren.

"I understand, second uncle!" Zhou Shuren nodded. As his whole body's mana fluctuated, his whole body was covered by a layer of mana film, and he began to check.

"Fever, red and swollen cheeks, lung cough, and bleeding tendency, it is indeed the plague!" Within a moment, Zhou Shuren confirmed the condition.

When he found that Zhang Buyi and Chen Lianfang were both checking the patients and trying to treat them, he said in surprise: "Second uncle, do you know how to heal?"

Zhang Buyi rolled his eyes at Zhou Shuren and said, "Your second uncle and I are also from the Zhou family, and my apprentice is a Taoist doctor. Why do you think I don't know how to heal?"

"Um... I haven't seen you take action on the journey, so I thought you, like my grandfather, gave up medicine and became literary!" Zhou Shuren said.

"Aren't you planning to give up medicine and pursue literature now? You don't know how to do medicine." Zhang Buyi replied.

Zhou Shuren nodded and said, "That's right!"

The two of them stopped talking. After confirming the condition, Zhou Shuren stopped working around and just watched the movements of Zhang Buyi and Chen Lianfang quietly.

He himself knows the level of his medical skills. Headaches and brain fevers are okay, but difficult and complicated diseases depend on luck. For such a serious epidemic, he had better deal with it honestly. It’s a matter of skill that he doesn’t get infected!

In this way, Zhang Buyi and Chen Lianfang began to make constant attempts. They did not immediately prepare a prescription. They first used magic power to figure out the specific condition, and only after the magic power was used to treat it, could they prescribe a prescription.

······

They were walking along a street. Before they had finished investigating the situation, a team of police officers suddenly found Zhang Buyi and the three of them.

"Your Majesty, Tong Hongqing, I've seen you, Mr. Inspector!" Tong Hongqing, the head catcher, led four detectives to Zhang Buyi and the others and said politely.

From the looks of it, it should be a message delivered by the guards at the city gate.

Chen Lianfang paid no attention to the other party's plan and just tried to treat him. Zhang Buyi looked at the head catcher Hongqing and asked: "What's the matter?"

Tong Hongqing glanced at the three of them and said, "This inspection master looks strange. I wonder which company in Zhezhou he is from?"
