Chapter 26
Bull City, not far from Raya Town.

The sky is hot, roasting God’s people on earth.

A line of people whose clothes were in tatters and whose bodies were covered with black lumps.

They tore their hair, whipped themselves as they walked with whips, and murmured with dry mouths, not knowing what they were saying.

Some even had whips made of iron with sharp barbs.

The whole body was covered in blood, which was shocking.

It seems that the more seriously he is hurt, the more he can find inner salvation.

They could not feel the direct heat of the sun, and were even numb, and their inner bodies were always feeling cold.

Some people's lumps have become ulcerated and pus-filled, but they don't pay any attention.

All I know is that more and more people are participating in this self-punishing confessional procession.

Behind them, people in Boer City had fallen into endless panic.

People were stunned by this sudden disaster.

Everyone has only one thought, to avoid infection.

The bailiffs and notaries of the city of Boer refused to make wills for the dying, and even the church priests refused to hear their deathbed confessions.

The bodies of the sick were abandoned in empty houses, and no one could give them a Christian burial.

The four doors of the dead man's house were open, and the jewelry, money, and valuables in the house were left unattended. No one could stop anyone who wanted to enter.

The Black Death came so suddenly that the people and officials of Bull City had no time to take protective measures. There were originally few officials before the plague, but now there is no official in Bull City.

The disease became more and more serious and powerful, and everyone panicked. Even the neighbors who had been very friendly a few days ago did not dare to help. Escape from the city gradually became meaningless because the disease had already infected those who fled the city.

All these fleeing people could do was carry the disease to other cities.

Some of the fleeing people died on the road, and some staggered and fell in fields or mountains and forests, and died there.

The day before yesterday, a patient wanted to leave a will before he died, so he called the notary, the priest and some witnesses, but now they are all buried together.

And the people who buried them have fallen in the cemetery without anyone to bury them.

There were not enough cemeteries, so people began to dig ditches to bury corpses. Often couples, fathers, sons, mothers, and entire families were buried together, neatly and indispensably.

Patients who live alone suffer from the disease in the house, with no one to pour water or feed them. Perhaps when they contract the disease, they have already been sentenced to death.

Doctors did not dare to diagnose the disease and ran away. The priest was full of fear and tremblingly held worship services by himself in the church. The swelling on his arm was extremely conspicuous.

The weak child endured the pain of high fever. He screamed in pain and wanted to be taken care of, and then died.

But the father did not dare to touch his son's body, until the mother did not dare to hold a funeral for the child's father and did not dare to enter the room to check.

There were no prayers, no funerals, and no God.

Even when a distinguished nobleman died in Bull City, no bell tolled for him.

A poor man had just died, and his clothes were thrown into the street. A passing pig gave him a few bucks, and he died that night.

Some people's homes were closed, and the news of the death was not known until a putrid smell came from the house.

A few sick people cleaned every house on the street, carried two or three corpses to the morgue, and transported them to the cemetery if there were holes. If there were no holes, they could only throw them into the river according to the priest's instructions. They couldn't ask for more. Many, I just hope that someone can throw it into a pit or river after I die.

No one followed the funeral, no one shed tears.

Because things have reached this point, there is no difference between the death of a person and the death of an animal.

Some of the sick people in Buer City began to be dissolute and muddle along. In their eyes, the end of the world had come. They did not consider or care about their property and lives, and indulged everywhere.

No matter how gorgeous the houses or how stately the palaces are, there are not many people around them anymore.

How many noble families were wiped out, and how much wealth was left without anyone to inherit it.

How many men and women are in their youth, having a party with friends last night, and having dinner with friends in another world tonight.

Countless people died in the villages near Buer City.

Some relatives begged passers-by to help bury the bodies, but no one dared to come forward.

Not only the city of Buell, but also the entire southern part of the French Kingdom has fallen.

As long as one person in the family gets sick, the whole family will not be spared.Cemeteries everywhere are overwhelmed. New cemeteries are being built one after another, but they are still far from enough.

There were no natural or man-made disasters, no wars and massacres, but it seemed as if the world was empty.

The houses were empty, the cities were abandoned, the countryside was neglected, the land could not bear so many corpses, and everyone was in panic.

Someone asked the priest, but he remained silent.

Someone asked the doctor, and the doctor shook his head.

Someone asked the law enforcement officer, who frowned and held the patient's mouth to stop him from talking.

Like hell.

Bad news comes from Raya Town.

Mayfair and Johns developed high fevers, and signs of swelling began to appear on their bodies, which were already symptoms of the Black Death.

Johns could still hold up his body and arrange everything, but Mayfair was already lying on the bed, unable to move, and could only talk to Enri with her fingers and simple words.

Calling Boqi to treat Johns, Boqi wrapped himself tightly, even wearing a hood on his face, as if he didn't dare to show anyone.

He found snails from the river, smeared the snail mucus on John's lumps, and even fed John to drink the urine of healthy people.

Boqi wanted to give Faile the same treatment, but Faile refused. She couldn't accept it in her heart. She hoped that Boqi could bleed herself.

But unfortunately, for professional doctors in Europe, bloodletting therapy also has to choose a day to see the stars.

Pochi had seen the stars last night, and today was not the right day for bloodletting.

Fei'er had no choice but to let Boqi leave. She had her own stubbornness in her heart, especially the lump on her body, which she didn't want others to see.

She fell into deep self-blame. She felt that she had not done well after all, failed to fulfill her father's entrustment, and was ashamed of the Raya family.

She doesn’t want to die. If she dies, she won’t be able to protect the entire people of Raya Town.
The Black Death was unknowingly introduced into the town of Raya, but as a lord, he was unaware of it.

Feier was afraid of the cold and had a high fever. She felt pain in her chest and coughed frequently. Once she coughed up a lot of blood.

Just because she doesn't let Pochi treat her doesn't mean she gives up on treatment.

I found Enri, and there was nothing unusual about Enri.

There is a brazier burning incense in the bedroom, and the room is filled with white smoke.

Feier was lying on the bed and motioned for Enri to stay away from her, but Enri refused and moved closer to Feier's face to make it easier for her to speak.

Mayfair was helpless, the blue eyes under her golden hair had lost a lot of their luster, and her lovely face was very pale.

His lips were weakly parted, and his voice was too small to be heard.

"Xu's medicine"

An Li woke up and quickly ran to the bookstore to find Xu Siling's soup recipe and cook it.

Fei'er never imagined that Xu Siling's soup recipe would be used on herself in the end. She only hoped that it could really save her life as he said.

Following the procedure of the letter, Enri carefully boiled the water from four liters to one liter, and quickly brought it to Mayfair.

She blew wildly until Fei'er became upset and quickly took the soup.

After getting sick, my body started to feel numb and it was much harder and hotter than before.

After drinking the decoction, Fei'er rested again. Enri didn't dare to disturb her and ran to the bedroom door to stand, not wanting anyone to disturb Fei'er's rest.

While standing guard, Enri prayed to God in her heart. This was the only thing she could do.

The next day, Enri once again cooked the soup in advance and went to the bedroom.

But I saw that Fei'er could already sit up on the bed, and her energy was much better than yesterday. However, the paleness of her face had not faded, but the luster in her blue eyes had returned.

Enri quickly put down the soup and approached Feier happily. She thought that because of her sincere prayer yesterday, God had mercy on Feier.

But Fei'er only had a serious expression on her face, motioned for Enri to come closer to her mouth, and said something extremely serious, which made Enri stunned.

"Kill the law enforcement officer."
