Chapter 71: Using things from the last era to harm people of this era
The word plague was like a curse in ancient times.
Even scarier than ghosts!
There might be a chance for ghosts to survive if they kill people, but once the plague spreads, it is no exaggeration to say that there will be thousands of miles of bones and lives will be destroyed.
Even in modern times, large-scale infections can cause many deaths, not to mention ancient times when medical conditions were backward.
Lu Yue stood aside, frowning.
Although he had no idea what kind of plague it was, he could be sure of one thing: it was highly contagious.
In just a few days, all the livestock in the village died.
At this time, the villagers remembered the woman who had fled here in distress.
Doesn’t she know medical skills? Maybe she can save them.
Lu Yue followed the villagers all the way to the woman's home.
I witnessed the scene where the villagers kowtowed and begged the woman to help.
The woman was not infected with the plague, but seeing that everyone in the village was begging her, perhaps because the villagers were willing to take her and her son in during this chaotic time, or perhaps because she was a kind-hearted doctor, the woman agreed to do so.
Lu Yue shook his head secretly. In ancient times, doctors were different from modern times. They needed to obtain various certificates. The literacy rate at that time was not high either.
Anyone who has read a few ancient medical books can be called a doctor.
If we can really solve a plague, we will definitely go down in history.
The fact was just as Lu Yue guessed, the woman was just flipping through a tattered medical book passed down in her family.
Lu Yue watched the whole process as the woman took care of the child and saved people at the same time.
Although the other party has no medical skills, he has a heart for medicine.
Risking infection, he shuttled among the seriously ill patients for many days to observe and record... In the end, he personally went up the mountain to collect herbs, boiled them, and decocted them...
But the plague will never be cured because of the doctor's kindness.
As the days passed and the villagers' conditions worsened, the woman's brows became more and more furrowed, as if she was struggling. Finally, she gritted her teeth, rushed into the house, and took out a medical book from the package with blurred and sloppy handwriting and even no title.
She found a folk remedy.
There is a vague record of a successful case of treating plague.
"Honeysuckle, isatis indigo leaves, coptis chinensis... the pure yang blood of children."
This last medicine is also the most important introduction.
The woman froze and the ancient book in her hand fell to the ground.
Time seemed to stand still, and the villagers' conditions became increasingly serious. They discovered that the medicine prescribed by the woman had no effect at all, and no one knew what she was doing, so she closed her doors to guests for several days.
Lu Yue's eyelids twitched wildly as he squeezed into the courtyard.
There are a thousand horses galloping through my heart.
Folk remedies kill people! ! ! !
Unfortunately, he couldn't change any of this.
A few days later, the woman appeared with disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes, as if she had not slept for several days and nights.
She continued to repeat the previous action of decocting the medicine.
The medicine prepared this time had an indescribable smell.
Later, the villagers' condition was indeed alleviated a lot.
For a while, the woman was hailed as a miracle doctor.
The villagers even spontaneously organized to build a temple and make statues to worship him.
But within a few days, the condition of those villagers whose symptoms had improved took a sharp turn for the worse again. This time, the illness came like a mountain, and even walking became a problem.
At this time, a villager finally discovered that the woman's child was missing.
And I saw bloodstains on the stone mill in the yard.
At that moment, all gratitude and admiration turned into anger and fear.
They finally understood the truth behind the medicine.
"Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but you actually gave your own child to..."
"I said this woman was unlucky. Our village was fine before, but since she came, there has been a plague."
"She brought the plague. We are all sick, but why is she not sick? She even has the energy to go up the mountain to collect herbs. She is not a human being."
"She is using evil magic, she is harming us."
The villagers were angry.
The woman went from being a living Bodhisattva to being the target of scolding and abuse.
Lu Yue, who was watching the whole process on the spot, had a complicated look in his eyes and sighed softly.
This woman might be a supernatural being from ancient times. Only a supernatural being could resist this plague. However, in the eyes of the ancients, this lucky supernatural ability was evil.
"Kill her, and we will be saved!"
"Disaster, jinx, it is you who brought the plague to us."
The villagers who were originally unable to survive suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. Perhaps as long as they killed this jinx, they could survive.
That night, the villagers took advantage of the woman's unpreparedness, drugged her, knocked her down and tied her up. All the villagers who were able to stand held torches and stared at the woman coldly.
No matter how the woman explained, no one paid any attention.
"This disaster is not afraid of the plague. If we drink her blood, will we be fine?" A dark voice sounded quietly among the crowd.
The torches in the hands of the villagers all dropped, leaving only sparks, illuminating the greedy faces.
The woman watched herself being placed on the millstone, tears in her eyes, and she begged for mercy by shaking her head at the top of her lungs.
But the group of villagers ignored it as if they were possessed by demons.
Although the woman was an extraordinary being, she had already consumed most of her energy from the long hours of intense herbal medicine collection, herbal medicine boiling, and fighting the plague. Gurgle Gurgle…
The only sound that could be heard at the scene was the sound of the stone mill rolling and rubbing.
Lu Yue stopped and felt very upset.
The Buddha was merciful and cut off his own flesh to save the eagle. The eagle retaliated by biting at the Buddha and drinking his blood to quench its thirst.
The ignorant blood-steamed buns in ancient times were not even one-tenth as bad as this.
At this moment, the scene in front of him changed again. Even Lu Yue, who was looking at it from a bystander's perspective, changed color slightly. He clearly felt a tremendous resentment emanating from the stone mill.
The woman's figure emerged, her eyes full of resentment, and she walked towards the village step by step.
That night, the entire village accepted the woman's revenge.
The woman's resentment did not dissipate afterwards.
It wandered around the village but couldn't leave the millstone.
From then on, this village became a ghost village that the nearby villagers were afraid of.
Then one day, the world was in chaos and smoke of gunpowder filled the air.
The master of a Taoist temple brought all the Taoists in the temple down the mountain to govern the world.
When passing by, he heard the villagers say that there was a ghost village here, so he stepped forward and went to the ghost village. Seeing the overwhelming resentment here, he prepared to perform a ritual to save the souls.
But it failed.
During the process, the disciples were controlled by the stone mill and killed each other as sacrifices.
The Taoist priest stepped forward to save people, but was seriously injured because of his lack of strength.
In order to prevent his disciples from becoming puppets, he killed all of them.
Then he took off his clothes, wrapped the millstone and buried it underground.
The Taoist priest eventually died of exhaustion.
Times have changed, and hundreds of years have passed, and we have arrived at modern society.
The stone mill buried in the ground was unearthed.
An intern accidentally entered this place and used other people's blood to unblock it.
And the so-called blood money is just a means for Stone Mill to control people.
Lu Yue sighed and shook his head.
This doesn't seem like a fantasy, but more like something that has happened in history.
I was pulled into the millstone and witnessed the woman's painful experience.
The tragedy has already happened.
So…what happens next?
Suddenly, Lu Yue's back tensed as if thorns were piercing his bones, and he turned around abruptly to look back.
I don't know when, the woman was standing behind him.
Her hair was disheveled and her eyes were burning with undying resentment.
"After hundreds of years, you're still resentful?"
"You hate those villagers?"
"You let me see all this, do you want to find someone to judge it?"
"Don't advise others to be kind without first experiencing their suffering. Those villagers really deserve to be killed!"
Although Lu Yue's voice was low, it was extremely clear.
The woman wailed, and the resentment around her seemed to come to life, transforming into a thick sea of blood-red fog, engulfing everything around it.
Moving forward step by step, approaching Lu Yue.
The millstone also began to turn, making a creaking sound.
In the blood-red fog, phantoms abounded: the villagers’ distorted faces, the Taoist priest’s fear, the despair of innocent passers-by, and even the crying of children all emerged one by one.
They seemed to be bound by invisible chains, wandering in endless pain.
Lu Yue mobilized the kidney energy in his body and said without any fear: "Or... are you regretting killing your own child? Do you think it's not worth it?"
"Have you ever thought that the relief of the villagers' symptoms earlier was due to the effectiveness of the first few herbs, and not the so-called primer?"
The woman ignored him and approached Lu Yue like a zombie.
"You could have discovered all this, or even left. It was your blindness and ignorance that ruined your child's future."
"It wasn't the villagers who killed the child, it was your ignorance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the resentment around him seemed to be aroused and became more intense, and the air was filled with blood and resentment.
The figure of the wealthy man gradually became clear in the mist, followed by other money-addicted patients who were also tortured. Their faces were distorted and their eyes were empty. They approached Lu Yue step by step, trying to drag him in.
"Stubborn."
"Use things from the last era to kill people of this era."
"Come on, take another step forward and see if I can save you!"
I will update one chapter first to prevent rumors that I am a eunuch.
From today on, updates will be released around 8 o'clock every night, two chapters at a time.
In addition, the first order is not high, but it’s okay. Next, I will write a million words and change my destiny!
ps: Thank you to all the big guys who voted for the monthly tickets. Since there are as many as 100 million people, I won’t list them one by one. Anyway, I have already engraved them in my family tree.
