Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 143
[It’s a new year, and there are still 54 updates this month. By the end of the month, this book should have [-] words. 】

The entire Jiangzhou City seemed relatively deserted.

But it's quite "lively" near the City God's Temple.

The isolation area for people infected with the plague is here, and the place where medicine is boiled and prepared is also here, as well as a temporary workshop for burning quicklime, etc.

Almost all the tools, consumables, etc. needed for the entire plague prevention and control method are produced here.

Therefore, there are a lot of pedestrians on the street in front of the Chenghuang Temple.

The generals of the royal family came to the street with the young man among the victims in custody.

The generals gently raised their legs and kicked him in the crook of his legs, causing him to kneel down immediately.

The other two people stepped forward and trapped his hands and feet with hemp ropes as thick as their thumbs.

prevent him from escaping.

This incident happened on the street, and soon a group of people gathered to watch the excitement.

They all pointed.

You can probably guess what the generals are going to do.

"Hiss! It turns out they were not joking. The generals of the palace are really going to publicly kill chickens to make an example to monkeys!"

"I just don't know which rule this person violated?"

"They beheaded them in the street without going through the three halls and without approval from the court. This... seems inappropriate!"

"What do you know? This is decided by the officials in the Yamen and the Prince of Poyang together. Besides, what time is it now? You don't care about this!"

……

The surrounding audience chattered in succession.

Among the crowd, there was a middle-aged man with long hair.

He stared at the unlucky guy who was about to be beheaded for a long time.

Suddenly, he stepped forward and was about to step forward.

Snapped!
However, a palm patted on his shoulder, stopping his figure abruptly.

The middle-aged man turned his head and looked to his side. It was also a middle-aged man with a chicken coop on his head.

It was this person who stopped him.

"Elder Liu, why are you stopping me?" the middle-aged man said solemnly.

The man named Elder Liu used force to pull him back to his original position.

He also said in a deep voice: "Elder Guan, what do you want to do?"

"Save people!" Elder Guan said matter-of-factly.

"They have their own reasons for acting this way, and we don't need to interfere." Elder Liu said.

"Fart! Let me tell you, Old Liu, you are the elder of the beggar gang, and the fleas on your body used to fly all over the place, and you once used the world as a toilet... How can you bear their weird rules?"

Elder Guan has a hot temper.

"Anyway, I can't stand it anymore. How can any beggar force us beggars to take a bath, change clothes, and eat clean food? It's simply ridiculous!"

"No, this person is a disciple of my Beggar Clan. As an elder of the Beggar Clan, how can I turn a blind eye. Old Liu, don't stop me, I'm going to save people!"

That Elder Liu looked solemn, still tightly grasping Elder Guan's shoulder, not letting go.

"I heard that the number of people infected with the plague last night has dropped to fifty or sixty thousand." Elder Liu suddenly said.

"Old Liu, what do you mean?" Elder Guan, who had a hot temper, was stunned.

"This shows that the government's method is very useful!" Elder Liu was calm and composed.

Elder Guan stared at him blankly, with a confused look on his face.

"According to my observations in the past two days, the method promoted by the government has not been implemented in place. It seems that the government is preparing to use forceful means to force everyone to abide by that method!" Elder Liu said.

The fiery elder Guan calmed down, thought for a while, and asked: "But Lao Liu, even if the government wants to enforce that method, you can't kill people in the street! This is a waste of human life!"

Elder Liu's solemn face suddenly smiled, and said: "Elder Guan, think about yourself, how did you ban the gambling in the gang?" "This..."

Elder Guan was speechless.

Because the method he used was the same as that used by the government.

They are all killing chickens to scare monkeys.

While the two elders of the Beggar Clan were talking, they suddenly saw a royal general holding a long knife in both hands, holding it diagonally over the unfortunate man's head, as if he was about to execute him.

The unfortunate guy was trembling, his mouth was twitching, and he couldn't say a word.

"Everyone, watch out. This person seriously violated the laws on plague prevention and control. He didn't even release filth in the designated toilet. We caught him on the spot!"

The general of the palace, holding a long knife at an angle, yelled at the surrounding audience.

"The method of preventing and controlling the plague is our life-saving medicine. However, there are always some rat droppings coming out and destroying this pot of soup. They are committing a heinous crime! They destroy the method of preventing and controlling the plague. This is destroying our life-saving medicine. This is going to kill us. All of us!"

The onlookers just stared at this scene blankly without making a sound.

The effectiveness of plague prevention and control methods has not yet been clearly demonstrated.

Therefore, the general's statement that "the method of preventing and controlling the plague is our life-saving medicine" is not yet deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Elder Liu and Elder Guan in the crowd looked at each other without saying a word.

"Neither the yamen nor the palace can tolerate this kind of harmful rat droppings! Today, we obey the orders of the yamen and the palace and behead him in the street to warn you and others that the method of preventing and controlling the plague is not a child's play and everyone must abide by it. , if anyone doesn’t comply, he will be your fate!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience shrank their necks.

I really want to behead him!
Everyone was frightened.

At the same time, they also began to pay attention to methods of preventing and controlling plague.

While everyone was stunned, the royal family member raised his sword and decapitated the unlucky guy, with blood splattering all over the ground...

"what……"

The onlookers were immediately horrified!

Really cut!
Anyone who still has a little luck in their hearts will not dare to ignore this problem from now on.

"Hey, tell me, what is the third point of this method of preventing and controlling the plague? I forgot..."

"Let me ask, defecation can only be done in designated toilets, right? What about... the phlegm in the mouth? Where should the phlegm be spit out?"

While everyone was horrified, they were busy asking each other for specific details on how to prevent and control the plague.

At this time, they felt very regretful.

Why did the "propaganda team" get distracted when they were explaining these issues...

Not long after, the royal family members left.

The people around the audience felt apprehensive and dispersed.

Of course, someone will deal with the blood stains and corpses on the ground, so they don't need to worry.

The two elders Liu and Guan of the Beggar Clan also left and returned to the earthen stove in front of the City God's Temple to continue brewing medicine...

Yes.

They did not reveal the identity of the Beggar Clan elder.

Instead, like other state soldiers, civilians, disaster victims, etc., participate in this vigorous fight against the plague!
……

Behead!

Shocked!

The crowd of onlookers took the initiative to find members of the "propaganda team" and asked about the specific details of methods to prevent and control the plague.

The members of the "propaganda team" were surrounded by everyone.

Faced with everyone's anxious inquiries, he was not in a hurry.

He straightened his clothes, held his head high, glanced sideways at the people who were anxious to get angry, and smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes...
