Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Lu Bu almost flew to Xiaquyang. He arrived early in the morning of the third day. On the way, he asked three farmers who got up early to work before he found Xiahuli.

As soon as the prison gate of Xiahuli was opened, he heard a burst of hurried horse hooves outside. He just looked out and saw a man jumping off a galloping horse and rushing straight in.

The gate to Xiahuli wasn't very wide, and the prisoner was dragged to the ground. He recovered and was about to curse when he saw the man run a few steps and then come back. He picked him up from the ground and asked anxiously, "Where's Amo? Where does she live?"

Seeing Lu Bu dressed like a warrior, the guard swallowed his words as he was about to curse and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"My wife, A-Mo, is the woman who was with Dr. Zhang."

"You mean Madam Zhang?" the inner guard pointed to the left side of the passage. "It's the eighth courtyard this way."

"Thank you!" Lu Bu ran towards the eighth courtyard like flying, shouting as he ran, "Amo, Amo, I'm here! I'm here to take you home..."

Lü Bu rushed into the yard and saw Xu Huang chopping wood. He knew he had found the right person. He glanced anxiously around the yard and asked, "Zhongming, where is A-Mo? Is she still awake? Which room is she in?"

Xu Huang knew yesterday that Amina's hawk had found Lü Bu, so he wasn't too surprised to see him now. He put down his axe and brushed off the sawdust on his hands. "Amo just went to the military camp with Mr. Zhang the other day..."

Xu Huang recounted what had happened the day before and what Zhang Mo had told him, then pointed to the first room to the east. "Little Baozi should be drinking milk right now. Wait a minute!"

Lu Bu's eager heart cooled down a bit, and he turned around and was about to go out, "I'll go after her."

Xu Huang said, "Wait a minute, General. You can catch up and get her back, but what about Mr. Zhang?"

"I'll take it back together."

"Mr. Zhang must go and see this epidemic. He won't come back with you. If you use force against the escorting officers, Mr. Zhang will inevitably be implicated."

Xu Huang pulled Lu Bu to sit on the steps of the main hall and began to chat about their experiences of the past year.

"When A-Mo traveled with Mr. Zhang, she had no idea she was pregnant. She only discovered her pregnancy when she had an unexpected bleeding episode three months into the pregnancy. If it weren't for Mr. Zhang's meticulous care, you wouldn't have been able to keep your son, and A-Mo's health would have been damaged. Although the baby was saved, the fetus was unstable and she almost had a dystocia. If it weren't for Mr. Zhang, both of them might have died. Mr. Zhang is a great benefactor to A-Mo and her son. How could the General forcibly take her back against his will?"

"Mr. Zhang's greatest wish in life is to research treatments for various diseases. He's been waiting for months to find the disease in Xiahuli. Listen to Amo and don't act rashly. They're probably almost at the military camp by now."

After hearing this, Lu Bu felt a wave of fear in his heart. It was so close, so close that he would never see Amo again...

At this time, the wet nurse came out of the room holding the little baby. Lu Bu walked over and looked at the little guy in the cradle for a moment, and then took the baby from the wet nurse's hands somewhat clumsily. The little baby had just eaten and drunk enough, and was in a good mood at the moment. He opened his round little eyes and looked at Lu Bu curiously.

The little bun looked almost exactly like himself in the dream when he was three or four months old. Lu Bu stretched out his index finger and gently touched the little bun's chubby cheek. The strong lines on his face softened and a happy smile appeared at the corners of his lips. This was his and Amo's child, the first son in his two lives.

In that life in the dream, although he slept with so many women and several of them were pregnant, he only had Ling'er as his child until he was defeated and died.

The more women, the better. One is enough if you find the right woman!

Amo also said that she was not a star of misfortune, but was clearly his lucky star.

Lu Bu gently nudged the little kid on the cheek, then reluctantly handed the little guy back to the nurse. He turned around and bowed to Xu Huang, "Thank you, Zhongming, for taking care of Amo and her son during this time. I am deeply grateful!"

Xu Huang was startled by his action and quickly followed suit, bowing. "General, you are being disrespectful. A-Mo is the leader of Juyi Village, and protecting her is my duty."

Lu Bu said with some emotion, "Zhongming and Zhongkang are both loyal and righteous men!"

He then looked at the little bun and said, "I want to rush back to Bingzhou today. Please help me protect the little bun."

After days of traveling, Lü Bu's beard was untidy, his eyes bloodshot, and he looked very tired. Xu Huang asked in confusion, "General, why don't you take a couple of days off? Are you in such a hurry to go back?"

Lü Bu explained, "Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are fighting each other, and Yuan Shao's army has been infected with an epidemic. This is a perfect opportunity to take advantage of the situation. I intend to return to Bingzhou to mobilize troops. If Zhang Yan really sends troops to aid Gongsun Zan, Amo's soldiers from the Juyi Camp will follow Zhang Yan. Unless necessary, do not reveal your identity."

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he said to Amina, "A Fei and the others are still on the way. Tell him to send a few people to escort Mr. Lu back to Jinyang, and the others will stay here to investigate."

After Lu Bu finished his instructions, he rode back to Bingzhou on horseback that same day.

…………

"Has the number of people sick increased today? Has anyone recovered from the medication?"

South of Jie Bridge, in Yuan Shao's tent, Yuan Shao's eyes were now bloodshot, and it was obvious that he had not slept for a long time.

The same was true of Tian Feng, the deputy driver, with a scruffy beard and a haggard face.

"Very few have recovered. General Qu has already had over 800 patients in his camp. If this continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to contain it."

Although the disease was not highly contagious, soldiers ate together from a large pot and often did not wash their bowls after eating. Even if they did, they would just throw them into a bucket. Sometimes one bucket of water could wash hundreds of bowls, so you can imagine how quickly the virus spread.

In fact, the disease had already occurred a few days after the civilians from Xiahuli arrived at the military camp. However, only a few people were sick at that time, and they were all civilians, so it was not taken seriously. Even military doctors were not sent to see them. It was not until more than ten days later that the first people who fell ill died one after another, and then attention was paid to the situation.

But it was too late. In more than ten days, the epidemic not only spread widely among the civilians, but also spread to Yuan Shao's soldiers. People fell ill and died every day. The military doctors worked for several days but saw no results. The morale of the army was greatly shaken. Yuan Shao then thought of summoning doctors from the people.

Yuan Shao frowned and paced back and forth in the tent. After a long time, he finally made up his mind, "If it doesn't work, kill these patients quietly and burn them."

Tian Feng said, "There are over 4,000 sick soldiers and 8,000 civilians in the army. If we kill the sick, it might cause a mutiny."

"If we can't cure him, he'll die sooner or later. If we delay any further, more people will die." Yuan Shao sighed heavily, "I've done my best!"

Tian Feng lowered his head and remained silent. This was reasonable, but if the news that the lord had killed his own soldiers leaked out, it would chill the hearts of the other soldiers.

In the past few days, doctors recruited from surrounding counties have arrived one after another, and many prescriptions have been prescribed, but the condition still cannot be controlled. In the face of natural disasters and diseases, no matter how resourceful he is, he is powerless.

Yuan Shao was still hesitating about whether to eradicate the pathogen when a man rushed in from outside the tent. Before Yuan Shao could get angry, the man said with a mournful face, "My lord, General Qu, he, he has also contracted the disease!"

"What?" Yuan Shao and Tian Feng exclaimed in unison, their faces changing.

Since Gongsun Zan launched his attack on Jizhou, his offensive has been fierce. Twenty thousand infantry and ten thousand cavalry marched all the way from Bohai County to Qinghe State. Most counties and prefectures in Jizhou surrendered. Previously, thanks to Qu Yi who led the troops to block the attack and temporarily suppressed Gongsun Zan's momentum, Yuan Shao was able to get a chance to breathe. Now even Qu Yi, the most capable fighter, has been infected with the plague. Is this God's will to destroy the Yuan family?

The man who came was Qu Heng, the deputy general of Qu Yi. He said with a mournful face, "He was fine this morning. Just after lunch, he suddenly had abdominal pain and diarrhea. I felt his forehead and it was burning hot. These symptoms are exactly the same as those of someone who has contracted the epidemic..."

"Hurry up and ask the military doctor to take a look. First, drink the medicine first..." Yuan Shao held on to the table, almost unable to stand.
