Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

The yamen runners rode away on horseback, beating gongs and drums to announce the incident to various places in the city:

"There's hope! The patients are saved!"

"The county magistrate has ordered that all seriously ill patients be sent outside Tai'an Tower!"

The city has been under lockdown for ten days.

Before the county magistrate sealed the city gates, he repeatedly appealed to the people's emotions and reasoned with them, saying that sealing the city gates to prevent the spread of the plague was not only to protect the millions of other people around, but also to save themselves.

If the plague spreads everywhere in the outside world, they will be unable to take care of themselves and will not be able to spare the strength to support Xingde County.

Only by controlling the plague in Xingde can they get more help to fight the plague.

The county magistrate has been in Xingde County for two years and has done many good things. Everyone respects this young magistrate very much.

So at first everyone accepted the lockdown calmly.

But within a few days, the number of patients infected with the plague increased, and the government office could no longer accept new critically ill patients.

All the doctors were concentrated in the government office, and the patients who stayed at home could only watch their symptoms become more and more serious, or even die suddenly.

Panic quietly spread among the people, almost making them lose their minds.

Upon hearing that there was hope, the government made arrangements for the critically ill patients, and the panicked people were finally temporarily comforted.

Critically ill patients stranded in government offices and people's homes were continuously sent to the outside of Tai'an Restaurant.

Chen Qingzhu is much faster than them.

At the yamen, she used the invisibility technique for a breath or two, then left everyone's sight and flew to Tai'an Tower.

As soon as I got back here, I started to set up the formation.

That's right, from the moment she decided to intervene in the plague in Xingde County, she decided to use formations to cure everyone.

This formation is called the Water Mist Formation.

She created it herself when she was in the world of cultivation.

At that time, she had just entered the middle stage of Qi Refining. Because of her excellent comprehension and fast progress in cultivation, a fellow brother was jealous and bullied her, and asked her to take care of a very special spiritual plant.

This spiritual plant needs to be irrigated by performing the Spiritual Rain Technique every day.

Not only does it consume a lot of spiritual energy every day, but it is also impossible to practice in seclusion continuously. If this continues in the long run, it will definitely delay the progress of practice.

After much observation and contemplation, Chen Qingzhu discovered that this magical medicine actually absorbed spiritual energy and raindrops through its branches and leaves.

When using the Spiritual Rain Technique, most of the spiritual rain was absorbed by the ground, which was a waste, so this water mist formation was created.

It can transform spiritual rain into spiritual mist that can float in the air for a long time, and cover it with an isolation formation, so that spiritual medicines can absorb the spiritual mist to the greatest extent and prevent the waste caused by it spilling into the air and onto the ground.

Not only that, it uses the five elements of water vapor in the surrounding rivers to form a formation, which can save a lot of spiritual energy consumption.

Most importantly, by adding an hourglass timing device, once the formation is formed, it can be left unattended.

The current situation of the patients in Xingde County is similar to that of the spiritual plant.

The external evils that cause plague mostly enter the lungs through the mouth and nose.

The diluted spiritual energy is atomized and inhaled into the lungs through the mouth and nose, which is the same route. It can cure the plague while saving spiritual energy to the maximum extent.

Moreover, once the formation is formed, with the assistance of the five elements of water vapor in the river, the consumption of spiritual energy is relatively small.

As long as you continue to replenish spirit stones or spirit crystals, you can produce spirit mist continuously.

She only needs to replenish the crystals formed by the frozen spiritual liquid in time, and does not need to worry about the limited reserves of her own spiritual energy and the need for recovery time in the middle.

She was very familiar with this formation and had already set it up before everyone arrived, waiting to be activated.

It was already daybreak and hundreds of critically ill patients had gathered.

“How many critically ill patients are there?”

Chen Qingzhu used spiritual power to transmit sound.

The ethereal, vast and sacred voice suddenly resounded throughout the Tai'an Building.

It was not a scream at the top of one's lungs, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

This feeling is too mysterious to be ignored.

The two or three thousand people present were originally making a lot of noise, but when they heard this, they were immediately surprised:

"Did you hear that? What's that sound?"

Then the county magistrate stepped out from the crowd, bowed and saluted:

"Reporting to Your Excellency, all 728 critically ill patients are here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a cry of surprise rang out among the people:

"Look! There! It's flying...flying down!"

Many people looked in the direction of the sound and saw, under the early winter sun, a white and graceful figure floating down from the tall roof of the Tai'an Restaurant and landing like a light feather five steps away from the county magistrate.

When she landed, the people discovered that the flying woman was actually shining with colorful light like a rainbow. It was truly magical!

The doctors, apprentices, and runners in the crowd knelt down immediately and shouted in unison:

"Greetings to His Holiness!"

The people don’t understand:

"What venerable one?"

“Why did so many people kneel down?”

"This... this can't be a god, right?"

The county magistrate quickly raised his voice and said:

"This is the Venerable Du'e, an immortal who has come to rid us of the plague! Please don't be rude!"

As soon as the county magistrate said this, everyone fell silent, looking in shock at the woman in white who was emitting colorful light all over her body. She was actually an immortal!

Or is it the immortal who comes to drive away the plague for them!

It feels like a dream.

To Chen Qingzhu, the precious light in the daytime was just the refraction of the ice crystals that she had deliberately condensed on her Taoist robe. It was not like the fluorescent light at night which required continuous consumption of spiritual energy, so her posture at this moment was particularly relaxed.

"What is the total population of Xingde County? How many people are still suffering from mild symptoms?"

The Xingde County Magistrate did some statistics last night, so he still has a good idea of ​​this issue:

"Replying to Your Excellency, there are 12,000 people in the county, and there are still more than 3,500 patients with mild symptoms!"

For a county like Xingde, whose population density is below average and whose total population is about 70,000 to 80,000, it is normal for the county seat to have more than 10,000 people.

This is still the number of people that Chen Qingzhu can cover with the Spirit Mist Array. Therefore, she was very calm:

"Put 200 critically ill patients within the white line, and the rest of the people should step back ten steps."

The white line is centered on Tai'an Tower. The area it covers is not too large, but it can still accommodate more than 200 people lying side by side.

The county magistrate gave an order and everyone obeyed.

After the seriously ill patient was placed in place and out of the white line, the white-robed venerable man was seen pointing his finger towards the white line.

Everyone suddenly felt the ground tremble slightly.

White mist suddenly rose from the area where the critically ill patients were lying, covering them all at a very fast speed.

In a flash, the figures inside became a little blurry.

Some people were frightened and thought that their loved ones were about to be swallowed by the white fog, so they subconsciously rushed forward.

However, they seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall. Although they could clearly see the people inside, they could not get any closer.

"Ah! What's going on? I can't move forward, I'm blocked!"

Some people subconsciously pushed forward, but still could not move at all.

But in the eyes of others, they seemed to be pushing the void in front of them, which was funny and weird.

Chen Qingzhu released his pressure and sent a message to stop him:

"Everyone, please be at ease. Once the plague is cured, your relatives and friends will come out."

Her words were not harsh, but they were inexplicably convincing.

Everyone suddenly became quiet and waited silently.

The white fog was constantly changing from thick to thin, and then from thin to thick.

After repeating this several times for about two minutes, the venerable man waved his jade hand and said loudly:

"All right."

The originally shrouded white mist disappeared in an instant.

The critically ill patients inside woke up as if from a dream. They all got up eagerly, looked around, and shouted:

"Huh? No more?"

"Where's that particularly soothing mist just now? Why is it gone?"

Many people were saying similar words and gradually stood up and looked around.

The people outside were completely stunned.

No, these people were so weak that they needed to be carried by others, how come they suddenly stood up so nimbly by themselves?
