I am a living immortal.
Chapter 224 Feelings
It's not just the plague in Qingshangang.
Including the theft of the Ganoderma lucidum, all the messy things happening in the court basically revolve around the struggle for the throne. For example, the National Defense Army is holding its own troops and trying to overthrow the country by force. For example, the disciples of the Imperial Master seem to have a lot to do with the theft of the Ganoderma lucidum. For example, the officials and businessmen in the Ministry of Revenue are colluding to deceive their superiors and subordinates, and the amount of corruption is unheard of...
Some of this was true, while others were merely tactics used to attack each other. The current emperor's lucidity was shortening, and it was impossible to discern whether these criticisms were true or false. However, the disappearance of the Ganoderma Lucidum still infuriated the emperor, causing the Imperial Master to lose his faith, and even the Crown Prince was implicated...
The prince was the crown prince and had great power, so it was natural that he was attacked by everyone.
Is the Aoyama Hill Plague a serious issue?
A casual word spoken in the court could cause a huge storm for the people.
The corruption case alone swept across several states in the north and south, and various issues such as disaster relief and grain taxes involved tens of millions of taels of silver. While some people were living a life of luxury, others were starving to death on the streets. The rich were feasting and drinking, while others were freezing to death on the streets. This was a reality.
Wang Zhen felt a headache when he thought about this.
Four strong men quickly carried him to the gap in the cave. Looking at the broken limbs all over the ground, things were even more exaggerated than he had imagined. Which of these people had gone crazy? Wang Zhen thought while raising his hand to make a gesture and throwing out a bell with his other hand.
"town!!!"
Jin Guang Dasheng suppressed a monster that had recovered halfway, and the monster continued to struggle.
Wang Zhen's brain was working at high speed. The situation had become even worse. This monster was obviously not the first one. The Eclipse Sect had received an epic level of strengthening, which made the already chaotic situation even worse.
"Oh..." Wang Zhen sighed and crushed it into meat paste.
The golden tortoise looked at Wang Zhen, who was in a state of panic, and said comfortingly, "As long as it's not that person's true form that comes out, it should be fine if a few greedy beasts come out."
"But... forget it, I should go back. With the help of the Eclipse Society, Third Brother will definitely cause trouble. The Crown Prince will be the first to be hit, and the Imperial Preceptor is under house arrest. So his next target will naturally be the National Defense Army, which attracts attention because of its size."
"It's not that easy to mobilize the National Defense Army. You need a suitable reason."
"It's better to create one than to find one. For those confused people, it's too easy. Starting a fire is easier than putting it out."
The destiny was in chaos, and without foresight, Wang Zhen felt that he could not move forward and became lazy.
He was sent back to the Imperial Observatory to take charge of the overall situation.
Before, he didn't fight, and the five departments of Zhitian were basically in a semi-shutdown state, just maintaining operations. Now the vacation is over...
…………
Qingshan Hill.
The entire Qingshangang was operating in an orderly manner. The government sent hundreds of apprentices to the pharmacy. They started out crying and yelling, and later became so busy that they completely forgot where they were and what they were doing there.
Boil medicine, boil medicine, and boil medicine again. I am so busy that I have no time to rest.
Screams of pain can be heard every day, but of course not everyone can survive, as the poison is too deep, or they are too young or too weak.
You know, some people haven't eaten for many days, and they are still repeating the instinctive work of their bodies. They were hanging on to their lives by the virus before, and they died after the virus was killed. They couldn't even wait for the nourishment of spiritual energy. It is better to say that they may have died a few days ago than to say that they could not be saved.
Previously, because the symptoms were too strange, we did not feel the reality of this plague. But now, the horror of the plague is truly revealed.
Carts loaded with corpses were transported to a crematorium.
As the fire burned, the strange smell of meat mixed with the smell of medicine made many people vomit uncontrollably. The physical torture was secondary, the mental torture was the key.
Because everyone has different body functions, they may be infected at the same time, but manifest differently. Young and middle-aged people have fast metabolisms, so they are more severely poisoned. The virus absorbs nutrients through the blood, so most of those who become plague corpses are young and middle-aged people.
Su Mu followed Xiao Yang through one village after another.
What you see is all kinds of life.
"Wuwuwu..." Some women sobbed softly while holding their children who had long been beyond help.
There are also people who, even if they are saved, cannot bear the despair of seeing their broken families, dead parents, and husbands turned into plague corpses, leaving them alone to survive, and they bang their heads against the wall and die. This is not uncommon.
The scarlet blood is particularly eye-catching.
The doctors who had saved the lives of the people before became corpse collectors the next moment, and they also suffered tremendous mental torture.
Many people are unwilling to seek treatment and have refused it.
They even had arguments with people.
"What's the point of saving them? They might as well just die like this. They can't bear the loss of their children, parents, husbands, and any hope of living in this world... Are we saving them or harming them?!"
"But not everyone doesn't want to live, not everyone doesn't want to live, not everyone..."
"Be strong? Do you really understand their pain? It's better to live a miserable life than to die..."
"But are they decent in the way they look? Are they decent? Tell me."
"That's better than dying in despair..."
One is determined, the other is hesitant. It seems that the two are arguing fiercely, but anyone with a discerning eye can see the torment in it. In this plague, very few family members survived. Dying in a daze or living in despair are both bad.
Even Li Peng, who was always cheerful, became much quieter.
Every household dressed in white.
The plague is terrible, but despair is even more terrible.
Su Mu knew that he could not save everyone, but he had done everything he could and he had a clear conscience.
Xiao Yang was even more indifferent to this. I saved you out of my duty. After saving you, it's your own decision. Life or death, it's always crucial to give people a choice. Some people want to die, but some want to live. After seeing this many times, I feel relieved. This is work, and he never brings emotions into it.
He knew the sufferings of the world from the very beginning.
"They shouldn't have died like this..." Li Peng said.
"Yes, but those who do evil will never see these. It's you who is standing here with emotion, and it's me. It's you who is uncomfortable and suppressed, and it's me. Those in high positions don't understand and don't care, because they can't see that things have already happened. If you are dissatisfied, you should slap those evildoers on the face and pull them down from their high and mighty positions, instead of lamenting why people have to suffer. Your emotion is useless and weak. Your emotion can only affect yourself, and you will just add another sensitive person." Xiao Yang stretched out a hand and waved it.
"Okay, we have to get to the next village."
