Chapter 390
The reason why the epidemic is so dangerous is that the disease of one person affects a house, and the disease of a house affects a township or a city.

Linzhou City has been sealed off, and there are heavy guards outside the city. Seeing Rong Jiu and A Mu galloping towards them, they hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, and shouted loudly: "Linzhou's epidemic is rampant, the city has been closed, hurry up!"

Amu took out a token and said solemnly: "This is a miracle doctor from Changle County. According to His Majesty's order, he went to the city for treatment."

The token is engraved with auspicious clouds and dragon patterns, and the word "Chu" is impressively engraved in the middle, which is the token of the Seventh Prince Chu Palace.

The officers and soldiers looked serious, and hurriedly opened the city gate.

Rong Jiu asked: "Has the Seventh Prince entered the city yet?"

The soldiers replied respectfully: "It arrived yesterday."

Rong Jiu handed the mask smoked with wormwood to A Mu, and the two put on the mask before driving forward.

The city was desolate and dead, with ten rooms and nine empty spaces, like a dead city, perhaps because of the presence of an imperial physician, wormwood was lit everywhere in the city to prevent the spread of the disease.

A look of pain flashed in Rong Jiu's eyes, and he said calmly, "Go to elder brother first."

A Mu nodded: "Your Highness may be at the medicine shed."

The two were about to go to the medicine shed, when some people rushed towards the gate of the city, shouting: "I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

Rong Jiu's expression sank, and he shouted in shock: "Amu, hurry up, stop them!"

A Mu flew up from the horse, and those people only saw a black shadow approaching, but before they recovered, they felt a pain in their chest and fell to the ground screaming.

Amu shouted sharply: "Your Majesty has ordered the closure of the city, and those who leave the city without permission will die. What are you running for?"

Some people clutched their chests angrily, and said bitterly: "I am not infected with the disease, why can't I go out of the city, Linzhou is a dead city now, if I continue to stay here, if I am not sick, I will get sick, and sooner or later I will die. do not die!"

This lifeless panic of waiting for death weighs on the hearts of the people, making them breathless.

"Even the imperial physicians are helpless, this disease cannot be cured at all, we don't want to die, we have to leave the city, we have to leave the city!"

"Yes, we are not infected at all. We are living people and cannot die here. Let us go out of the city."

The people got up angrily, and were about to rush towards the city gate again. Rong Jiu glanced at the crowd sharply, and said coldly: "There are soldiers guarding outside the city, whoever dares to break into the city will be killed without mercy, if you want to die, just go."

The people were shocked by the coldness in her eyes, and their bodies froze suddenly.

"Xiao Jiu,"

Chu Xun heard that some people were about to escape from the city, so he hurried over. He didn't expect Rong Jiu to arrive so soon. Fortunately, she was there, so he stopped these people. Otherwise, these people might not have escaped from the city yet. Then he was decapitated.

"Brother," Rong Jiu got off his horse.

When the common people heard Rongjiu call Chu Xun "Big Brother", they only thought they were the same raccoon dogs, and what he said just now was just to scare them on purpose.

"We're going out of town, we're not sick, we can't wait to die here."

Rong Jiu's eyes were very cold: "Are you sure that none of you is sick? Once you leave the city, it will affect thousands of people outside. If you don't want to die, don't they deserve to die? In this world, Who has no flesh and blood relatives, is it because you are afraid of death that you will harm others, ruin your family, and leave your life and death?"

There was a sudden silence on the street, some people showed shame, and some were still resentful.

"The epidemic has no cure at all. Even the imperial physicians have died several times. If it continues, we can only massacre the city. If we don't escape, we will all die. I have nothing to do with other people's life or death. I want to live, but I don't want to die. .”
