Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

This made it a perfect place for the authorities to hide people infected with the disease.

Of course, the state officials initially adopted the advice of that aide in order to concentrate treatment and prevent the spread of the epidemic.

However, they never expected that the epidemic would break out so rapidly, the situation would be difficult to control, and the number of people infected would be so huge that it had already exceeded their imagination.

At the same time, many doctors were helpless. None of the doctors who went into Black Wind Ridge to treat patients could walk out unscathed. In other words, almost all patients who were brought into Black Wind Ridge could only wait to die.

According to incomplete statistics received by the state officials, up to now, the number of refugees who have come to the state capital to seek a way out and have been diagnosed with the disease by doctors outside the city has exceeded 50,000.

The governor and the commander could not imagine what a huge loss it would be for the entire Yongzhou City if all the refugees trapped in Black Wind Ridge died.

Moreover, once the news leaked, even if the imperial court did not send troops to suppress the massacre, when the epidemic spread to the military camp guarding the border town near Yongzhou City, it would be really disastrous, and the border town would fall to the enemy country without being attacked.

Sooner or later, Yongzhou will be reduced to a dead zone, and no one or animals will survive in the area. By then, Yongzhou will become the most tragic hell on earth in the Dayuan Dynasty, and it will be difficult to recover within dozens or even hundreds of years.

However, just when the state officials were at a loss as to what to do, God sent the miracle doctor from Yaowang Valley right under their noses. This was definitely a good omen for survival and good fortune after bad times.

As a result, after receiving the news, the three people who were racking their brains for a countermeasure in the government office hurried over and personally visited the doctor from Yaowang Valley to ask for help.

Lin Xiaoyue could understand the actions of the state officials and also understood this dynasty. For the common people, everyone knew how terrible the plague was.

If refugees are infected with the plague and allowed to go to other places, the plague will spread uncontrollably over a large area. People in more places will then be infected with the disease and many people will die.

Being infected with the plague is basically equivalent to death. There is no advanced medical treatment like modern ones here. In addition, if you don’t know how to protect yourself, even if you are lucky enough to be cured, you will be cross-infected again. Naturally, there is no cure and you can only wait to die.

In fact, the fact that the city of Yongzhou was protected as tightly as an iron barrel, without causing the people to panic and flee in all directions, was the result of the state officials' full suppression.

However, although the refugees imprisoned in Black Wind Ridge had food and water distributed by the state government, they were suffering from the severe epidemic and were in great pain. If there was no cure, the final outcome would be that they would die of the disease and the whole place would be burned down.

In this case, the purpose of the governor's visit is self-evident, and he invited Doctor Qiao and Doctor Li to enter Black Wind Ridge.

Chun Xing's face turned pale and her body trembled slightly. Although some people in their group were infected with the plague and were finally cured during the escape, this was completely incomparable to entering a severely affected area that was ordered to be blocked.

If Grandpa and Grandpa Li were summoned to the mountains, she didn't dare to think about it, nor was she willing to let them go, but...

Doctor Li and Doctor Qiao looked deep in their eyes. After a moment's silence, they stood up at the same time. "Well, since we two old guys are here, let's go and do our best to help."

"Grandpa..."

"On behalf of the people of Yongzhou, I would like to thank the great virtue and kindness of the divine doctors of Yaowang Valley. They have cured people of serious illnesses and restored destiny. Their merits are immeasurable." As he spoke, the civil officials bowed deeply and the military officers embraced their husbands, all of them solemnly saluted the two divine doctors of Yaowang Valley.

Afterwards, Doctor Qiao picked up a pen and wrote down a list of medicine names and the materials for making masks that Lin Xiaoyue had mentioned, and handed them to the state officials, asking them to prepare them as soon as possible, as he needed to bring all the items with him before entering Black Wind Ridge.

The three state officials naturally accepted the request decisively. After reading the above content, they knew that Doctor Qiao wanted many and diverse things. In addition to medicinal materials that could be purchased from clinics or merchants, things like masks needed to be cut and made. For 2 people, at least two masks would be prepared for each person, and then the production would be gradually accelerated and sent to Black Wind Ridge in batches.

It would take at least three days to complete the whole process. After agreeing on the departure time, the state officials took their leave and left.

Doctor Qiao and Doctor Li kept Lin Xiaoyue, obviously they had something to tell her.

The one thing that Doctor Qiao couldn't let go of the most was Chun Xing. His little granddaughter had been studying medicine and making medicine with him since she was a child, but she was a simple person. Doctor Qiao couldn't bring her with him when he entered Black Wind Ridge, so he could only entrust her to someone he trusted to take care of her.

Although Lin Xiaoyue has a dull personality, it is not difficult to tell from the time we have been together that she is a person who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and who is extremely protective of her friends.

Lin Xiaoyue opened her mouth and looked at Chun Xing, who was crying like a cat, with tears as big as beans falling down her eyes. She stroked her thin shoulders and promised Doctor Qiao, "Don't worry, leave her to me. I will never let her suffer any grievances. But Doctor Qiao, you must take care of yourself on this trip and do everything within your ability. I will wait for Doctor Qiao to return safely and ask me to take Chun Xing back."

Lin Xiaoyue is not a person who likes to meddle in other people's business, but she knows that Dr. Qiao and Dr. Li's actions are to save the people from danger. Such a benevolent act reminds her of the medical workers who fought in the anti-epidemic battle without gunpowder smoke in the modern epidemic, day and night, and protected the lives and health of the people with their flesh and blood.

For such a respectable and lovely person, she is willing to make a commitment to take care of his family, so that he can protect himself without any worries and save more poor people suffering from the disease.

"Thank you." It was rare for Doctor Qiao not to argue with her because her granddaughter preferred to stick to Lin Xiaoyue. Perhaps because they were about to part, it was rare for him to thank her so solemnly.

Chun Xing cried out loudly, she was crying like a human, she was very sad. Although the old man was very annoying, she knew in her heart how good Grandpa was to her. She didn't want Grandpa to take risks in that damn Black Wind Ridge, she didn't want to be separated from Grandpa, she really regretted why she couldn't be more patient with Grandpa before, why she always argued with Grandpa, she...really regretted it.

"Third girl, come with me and let them have a good talk." Doctor Li also loved Chun Xing very much. He gently touched her little head and said with love in his tone, "Don't cry. Talk to your grandfather more. He is not feeling well either."

After saying that, Doctor Li led Lin Xiaoyue out, leaving the space for the grandparents and grandchildren to say goodbye properly. After all, it was hard to say when they would be able to reunite again after this departure.

On this side, Lin Xiaoyue followed Doctor Li out. Doctor Li gave her two yellowed notebooks, which were the essence of his lifelong learning. He hoped that she would pass them on to Xiao Si and Xiao Wu.
