Chapter 30
In Xunyang City, no matter the road or the houses, they were full of arrows shot from outside the city.

These arrows, without exception, had their arrowheads removed, and letters were tied to the arrows.

These letters were written by people who had been cured outside the city.

More than 1000 affected people wrote letters day and night, and each person had to write dozens or even hundreds of letters.

Some letters are well written, and the handwriting is correct and beautiful.

Some letters are all in vernacular, illegible handwriting.

However, each letter has a full signature, representing a living person.

When the residents of Xunyang City saw these letters, they first felt that they were not credible.

But as more and more letters came in from outside the city, they discovered that one of the names in the letter happened to be one they knew.

"Hu Xuedan? Isn't it from Li Shixing's house in the Li Family Collection?"

"It's the one who was eight months pregnant. When she was taken away, her stomach was very big."

"Why, her baby was born?"

Several people from Lijiaji got together to read the letter.

"My husband Li Shixing: I am your wife Hu Xuedan. The epidemic on my body was cured by Doctor An! The child was also delivered safely, weighing seven catties and one tael. He was very healthy. Doctor An named our child Xing blessing."

Read it word by word, several times.

Everyone was surprised and excited.

"Is it true? My son-in-law is also infected with the epidemic and is now locked up in Yongjia Temple."

"It should be true, otherwise it wouldn't be so similar, with names and surnames."

"Xingfu, this name is really good, it sounds like happiness."

After a while, someone at the gate of the academy also found a letter from an acquaintance.

"Li Xianzhuo, a student of my Yangjiang Academy, misunderstood the words of the city lord, and contracted the epidemic in the apricot forest outside the city. Fortunately, Lai'an was rescued by the miracle doctor and the magic medicine, and has now recovered. Advertise to the residents of Xunyang City that there is a cure for the epidemic, please don't panic , Those who need to be cured of the epidemic can come and ask the An Shen doctor to come to the city, three pills, and the medicine will cure the disease."

Several scholars hid under a bamboo bush, and one of them kept pulling his sleeve to cover the rash on the back of his hand. He was infected, but he didn't want others to know.

"Li Xianzhuo, isn't he the humble scholar who is most valued by Master Wen? He gets first in every exam."

"Well, he was so popular that he was envied by Mr. Yu. He was arrested by Mr. Yu that night."

"However, I remember that he was not infected with the epidemic that day." The evasive scholar was eager to know if there was really a cure for the epidemic.

Another scholar said: "Oh, this kind of epidemic is very contagious, so many of them went out and made a mess that day, it must have been spread."

The scholar said expectantly: "So, there is indeed a cure for the epidemic?"

"probably."

Others couldn't believe it, but really hoped it was true.

Not only these scholars, but other people have the same idea.

In the streets and alleys of Xunyang City, there are groups of people like this, holding letter papers in their hands, discussing together.

More and more people find acquaintances from letters, which makes miraculous medicine and medicine more credible.

"Do you know the third sister of the Luo family? It's a medicine jar. Since the age of three or four, the medicine has never left her mouth, and she takes medicine every day. They have left their family poor!"

"Sanmei Luo? I know it! I know it too well. This medicine jar has been ill for more than ten years. What's wrong with her?"

"Sanmei Luo was cured not only of the current epidemic, but also of her ten-year-old illness."

"Really? That's too lucky! Such a serious disease can be cured!"

Everyone's tone became envious.

I really want to see the face of Miracle Doctor An.

Some bold people went to Wenjia Temple, Chenghuang Tower, Fuyuan Temple and other places to find their relatives and friends to convey the good news to them.

These temples and Taoist temples focus on those who are infected with the epidemic.

These infected people are really miserable. They lie side by side in a roll of mats, saying that they are quarantined in a centralized manner, and special people deliver meals to them every day.

But in fact, the cooks are afraid of contracting the epidemic, so they dare not come.

They are sick and starving again. A large number of infected people live together, and a large number of infected people die every day.

At first, someone came to drag the body away.

In the past few days, even the people who pulled the corpse did not come.

Some people said that the Lashi people had been infected; others said that the Lashi people had fled.

There are different opinions, all in all, the corpse is now left unattended, and it is left to stink and rot in the temple, full of insects.

The living conditions of the affected people are directly worsened.

A lot of arrows also fell into the temple. At first, these dying infected people thought it was Cai Siyuan who sent someone to shoot them.

Later, they discovered that none of the arrows had arrowheads.

Then, they also found the letter tied to the arrow.

Those who can read, read these letters to others one by one.

How to describe their mood.

Shocked, unbelievable, some even suspected it was a prank.

Because, in their cognition, there is really no cure for this epidemic.

They also accepted the fact that they were waiting to die in pain here.

Some people came here voluntarily in order not to infect their relatives and friends.

During this time, they continued to witness the death of people around them.

Now, someone suddenly told them that the epidemic can be cured, they really couldn't believe it, they couldn't believe it.

But, what if, what if this is true.

They hope it's true.

As more and more arrows fell into the temple, they also found that there were names of acquaintances in the letter.

It does look real.

Once the desire to survive is torn apart, it's like wildfire starting a prairie fire.

Those who were in better health wobbled up and went to knock on the temple door.

Those who are weaker must crawl over.

"is that true?"

"Is it true?"

"Let's go! Let's get out of town! We're going to the magic doctor!"

……

At the same time, in the city lord's mansion.

Master Bo Dong Zucheng brought back the news of Xunyang City, "My lord, many residents in the city have received letters from outside the city. They heard that there is a magic doctor outside the city that can cure the epidemic. I hope your lord can open the city gate."

"Fake!" Cai Siyuan sat on the bed shivering, with three thick quilts behind him, and still holding the sword in his arms, "There is no cure for the epidemic! There is no cure! Close the city gate , Anyone who enters or exits without permission, beheaded!"

The housekeeper Xu Naichang was very puzzled, "Lord Cai, aren't you infected with the epidemic? If it is true that a dead horse can be used as a living horse doctor, it can cure your epidemic. Wouldn't that be a great joy?"

Cai Siyuan's chest rose and fell, and his breathing was short of breath. He didn't know if it was caused by the epidemic, or because he was angry and excited. He yelled, "She's a liar! She's a liar!"

His handsome face was blue with dark circles under his eyes, and he murmured: "I can't lose!" He jumped off the bed suddenly, as if suddenly turning back, and rushed out barefoot and without shoes on. room.

Dong Zucheng and Xu Naichang looked at each other, they didn't know why Cai Siyuan developed so much strength.

Cai Siyuan ran straight into the main room of Yi Xi'er in the back house.

Yi Xi'er was sitting in front of the dressing table in a daze.

Cai Siyuan grabbed Yi Xi'er's hand with so much strength that he almost threw Yi Xi'er to the ground.

"Didn't you say that you won't get infected if you eat your relic holy medicine?!"

Yi Xi'er's wrist was painfully pulled by Cai Siyuan, she had small deer eyes, and tears immediately filled her eye sockets.

"Sir, I... I'm infected."

Yi Xi'er pulled up the sleeves a little bit, revealing a section of her arm, and sure enough, there were red rashes on her plain white arm.

Yi Xi'er also caught the epidemic.

At this time, the city gate guard fell into the inner room in a panic covered in blood, and reported out of breath, "My lord, the city gate... the city gate was knocked open by mobs!"
