Chapter 221 Smallpox
Three days later, Wang Jian led his troops to Qu County.

Seeing him coming, Liu Bai immediately felt relaxed.

"Old General Wang, the eldest son will be handed over to you, and I will bring someone in first."

Wang Jian, who had just arrived, hadn't figured out the situation yet, he was instantly confused when he heard the words, and quickly grabbed Liu Bai who was about to leave.

"Where are you going?"

Pointing to the city wall in front of him, Liu Bai took it for granted.

"Enter Qu County, where else can I enter?"

Wang Jianti slipped his collar and dragged him back.

"Your Majesty ordered that the eldest son Fusu and his son-in-law set off for Xianyang immediately without any delay!"

"Old general, the general is away, and the king's life is not accepted, you don't know it?"

Wang Jian choked, brat, how could you play this game with me?

Even if you talk about breaking the sky today, I have to send you back.

"Since the son-in-law said so, the old man is offended! Wang Ben, tie the son-in-law and the eldest son to Xianyang!"

Hearing this, Liu Bai winked at Yuhuatian.

The factory owner understood instantly, grabbed his arm, and flew towards the county seat of Qu County.

Seeing them moving, Yingwei picked up the things Liu Bai had prepared and jumped forward.

Wang Jian and Wang Ben stood in front of the army, watching them leap in from the city wall.

The two of them turned pale in an instant, and a burst of cold air passed through their necks.

He raised his hand and touched it. Fortunately, the head is still there!
But in this situation, what should they do?
Lifting his hand feebly, Wang Jian ordered Wang Ben.

"Go and send a message to His Majesty!"

Glancing at his father, Wang Ben silently turned to look for the herald.

Fusu stared dumbfounded at the scene in front of her, and began to doubt her own eyes.

They just left?

After reacting, he staggered to the bottom of the city and shouted inside.

"Brother-in-law, you forgot to bring me..."

Zhou Bo, who was following behind him, shook his head helplessly, silently watching the eldest son go crazy.

Wang Jian, who was standing in front of the formation, was furious.

None of these people is really worrying.

Already left one, can I let you go again?
"Come on, go and bring the eldest son back to me!"

"Yes!"

The two guards behind him immediately went to the city and pulled Fu Su back.

Fusu, who struggled to no avail, looked at Wang Jian helplessly.

"Old general, don't send me back to Xianyang, I'm worried!"

Wang Jian sighed, waved his hand and ignored him.

If you don't worry, neither do we!

……

The county seat of Qu County.

The guard looked dumbfounded at the group of people flying in overhead.

What do you mean, a fairy descended from heaven?
When he saw the token in Liu Bai's hand, he quickly knelt down on one knee.

"Meet the consort!"

"Where is your magistrate now?"

The guard faltered for a while, unable to explain why.

"Send someone to bring him to see me, now tell me about the situation in the city..."

Another guard who was kneeling next to him got up and went to look for the county magistrate.

Nodding in satisfaction, Liu Bai took advantage of the situation and sat on the steps beside him, waiting for the guard in front of him to introduce the situation in the city.

"My son-in-law, the little one will start from the beginning?"

Seeing Liu Bai nodded, the guard thought for a moment and said.

"In the beginning, many people in the city had a fever. After two or three days, red rashes appeared on the face, arms and other parts, and then began to fester... All the doctors in the county were helpless against this epidemic..."

"When the first person died, the county magistrate realized that something was wrong and hurriedly sent a letter to the court. On the third day, more and more people had fever and more and more people died. Lockdown order.

"Until today, nearly a thousand people have died in the city! Those who were infected were gathered in the east of the city by the county magistrate, and the rest of the people who were not yet sick were all in the west of the city..."

After listening to the guard's words, Liu Bai's face turned ugly for a moment.

Thinking about the symptoms he mentioned, why is it so similar to smallpox?

But wasn't this thing introduced in the Western Han Dynasty?Why did Daqin exist so early?

But now is not the time to think about these things. The first thing to do is to determine whether it is smallpox or not.

If it was really smallpox, it would be easy to handle.

At this moment, the county magistrate rushed over.

After saluting, he turned to look at the guard beside him.

"Did the son-in-law walk around after he came in?"

Seeing the guard shaking his head, the county magistrate was relieved.

Taking two steps back, he fell to his knees with a 'plop'.

His head hit the ground with a 'boom', and he prayed.

"Chen Zhangping implores the son-in-law to turn around immediately, and don't enter Qu County again. At the same time, I ask the son-in-law to tell your majesty, I... I am ashamed!"

Liu Bai sighed and helped him up.

"Master Zhang, there is no need to do this. In my opinion, you have done a good job! I have some clues about this disease. First, we need to make sure whether it is what I think, and then we need to eliminate the disease. Master Zhang, don't take it by yourself. Blame..."

Hearing Liu Bai said that he had a clue, Zhang Ping looked at him in disbelief.

"Is what the son-in-law said really true?"

Liu Bai chuckled.

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't risk my life, would I?"

Seeing his relaxed face, Zhang Ping immediately believed him.

"Since this is the case, from now on, the whole county of Qu County will be mobilized by consorts..."

Liu Bai did not refuse when he heard the words.

"Let me ask you, are there any recovered patients?"

Zhang Ping nodded affirmatively.

"Bring them over to me!"

Looking at him hesitantly, Zhang Ping didn't move.

Liu Bai understood what he was worried about, and said.

"Don't worry, you won't be infected again after you recover!"

Zhang Ping felt relieved, and ordered some recovered patients to come.

Seeing the scars on their faces, Liu Bai was instantly certain that it was smallpox.

"Master Zhang, this disease is called 'smallpox'. Now I don't have a better way to treat it, but it can prevent those who have never been infected from being infected again..."

Zhang Ping's heart fell into a trough in an instant after hearing him say that it could not be cured.

But when he heard that those who were not infected could be saved, there was hope again in an instant.

"My lord, what should I do?"

Liu Bai took the mask from Yingwei's hand and looked at Zhang Ping.

"This is a mask. This disease is mainly transmitted through saliva. People in the city who have not been infected are ordered to make it themselves, and then wear it like me. Do you understand? I still have some here, you put them on first!"

Ever since he met Liu Bai, Zhang Ping was a little curious about his attire.

Seeing the 'mask' at this moment, I instantly understood what he was wearing on his face.

After receiving it, under Liu Bai's guidance, he put on the mask.

Then he ordered the guards to distribute other redundant masks and took people to teach the people how to make them.

After they left, Liu Bai ordered again.

"These are called alcohol. You must be careful when you take someone to sprinkle this thing around the city, especially in the places where the sick are concentrated in the east of the city."

"By the way, the guards in the east of the city must be fixed, don't let them wander around and increase the risk of infection!
"Also, if there is wine in the city, find them all, I will be of great use!"

Time was running out, Liu Bai just told them what to do, without explaining why they did it.

Although he didn't know much about many things, Zhang Ping didn't ask much, but ordered people to follow Yingwei to carry out what Liu Bai ordered.

"Since there are people in the city who are infected, there must be infected livestock. Order people to search for infected cows. If you can't tell the difference, check to see if there is a rash on its sternum. If there are any, bring them immediately!"

Zhang Ping waved his hand, and the guards at the side followed the Eagle Guard and left.

"That's all for now, let's go to the residence first!"

After exhaling, Zhang Ping responded quickly.

"I don't know the son-in-law is coming, so I haven't prepared. Why don't I live in the county government first?"

Liu Bai gave a light 'um' and agreed.

Zhang Ping led the way, looking back at Liu Bai from time to time.

Suddenly, somehow, there was hope.
