After crossing over, he has no taboos among the zombies.

There are three disasters at the end of troubled times: natural disasters, man-made disasters, and plagues.

Not to mention natural disasters, several northern provinces have suffered from severe drought, and the capital has not seen a drop of rain for half a year.

There is no hope for an autumn harvest this year. The number of refugees is increasing. Just now, there was a riot in a refugee camp and tens of thousands of people died. The camp is slowly filling up.

In addition to droughts, there are also disasters caused by war and banditry.

Not to mention the man-made disasters, among the princes and officials of the Dali Dynasty, nine out of ten were executed innocently, and every second one was slaughtered, there would definitely be some that slipped through the net.

Finally, there is the plague. Once it breaks out, all you can hear for miles is the crowing of chickens and the barking of dogs, but no human voices.

In terms of killing efficiency, plague is the worst.

Qin He didn't know if he could withstand the plague, he had never tried.

After thinking about it, he pulled a piece of cloth to cover his mouth and nose.

This world is different from the time and space where all kinds of powerful things really exist.

Maybe there is even a plague god.

Caution can catch the cicada for a thousand years, and caution can sail the boat for a thousand years.

There's no harm in staying a little quiet.

The Feiyu Guards brought a total of six large carts, all of which were filled with corpses. They must be from the capital, and no one knew where they had met with disaster.

After a round of handover, there were a total of thirty-six bodies.

The eighteen cremators each had exactly two bodies.

Don't think that these thirty-six bodies are not a lot.

As we said before, the probability of a corpse mutating is about one percent.

According to the calculations from the four crematoriums, at least more than a thousand people died in this incident. This is just one day's death, and it is unknown how many more people will die in the future.

The two bodies were placed on the corpse cleaning table. When it got dark, the door was closed and locked, and the cremators began their repetitive work again.

Qin He looked at the bodies: a man and a woman, both very young, their bodies covered in lime powder.

The cause of death should be suffocation, because he was covering his neck. It is estimated that the plague caused lung disease and death. But what is strange is that there was a wound on the forehead, which was caused by repeated bumps.

Cleanse the corpse.

First wipe the face of the corpse clean, then the hands and feet, and shake the clothes as much as possible.

After tidying myself up, I can finally be seen by people, so that I won’t have to admit my mistake when the evil spirit comes.

Burn it.

Light the coal to start the fire, open the furnace to burn the body, and then bring out the flint, everything goes according to plan.

In the raging flames, the two corpses suddenly began to tremble, whistling "ho ho ho" sounds from their mouths, and suddenly sat up.

Qin He took a look.

Yo huh?

Aren’t you still being honest?

Dying from the plague was God's will, not an accidental death. Why is there so much resentment?

The corpse-suppressing nail is specially used to cure all kinds of disobedience.

Each person gave one as a reward, and the two corpses lay down contentedly, without making any movement.

Two hours later, the bodies were cremated one after another.

Through the shadow play, Qin He saw the tragic situation of the plague.

This is a newlywed couple who live in Fang County, Shuntian Prefecture, and make a living by selling crackers.

No one knew where the plague came from. At first, only a few beggars died, but no one paid attention.

Beggars are dirty and smelly, mostly refugees from other places, too weak to work and just stealing. The government hates them, and the people don't like them either, wishing they would all die soon so they could have peace.

But as the deaths continued, something started to go wrong. Local people from Fang County also began to die in waves.

All died of illness!

But what is disturbing is that the causes of death vary.

Some people died of sores all over their bodies, some died of suffocation, some died of vomiting blood, and some died of diarrhea.

No one knows what happened.

Panic spread rapidly and some people began to flee, but most people did not want to leave and could not leave.

I went to the county government office to find my parents. There was a notice posted at the door of the government office. The county magistrate came to Beijing to meet the emperor and ask for help from the capital. He also took his whole family and a huge fortune with him.

The entire yamen was empty, it was obvious that they had run away.

The county town collapsed, the bodies were left unattended, the stench was overwhelming, and the people fled.

However, the plague followed like a shadow, and more and more people died.

At this moment, someone raised his arms and shouted, saying that the mountain god of Xianyun Temple on Puyun Mountain had appeared, and the talisman water in the temple could prevent and treat the plague.

When the people heard this, they immediately flocked there.

This couple is among them.

When I arrived at the temple and asked, I found out that the talisman water was not free. One bowl of it cost five taels of silver.

With their lives at stake, the couple no longer cared about the money they had saved for years and spent twenty taels of silver to buy talisman water for their family of four.

After drinking this, wow, it really works.

Anyone who drinks the talisman water will feel full of energy if they are not sick, and those who are sick will be cured after drinking the talisman water.

For a time, Xianyun Temple became the savior of the people.

There are even more people.

The talisman water in the temple soon ran out of stock and the price went up.

Twenty taels of silver per bowl.

Twenty taels of silver, that is the price of a half-strong yellow ox, isn't this robbery?

That’s right, just rob!

That's it, how many people want to be robbed but don't have the chance.

Xianyun Temple has a purchase limit of 200 bowls a day. It’s up to you to drink it or not.

What’s more serious is yet to come. The patients who had previously drunk the talisman water became ill again and became unwell again.

At this time, the attendant of Xianyun Temple spoke again and said that the talisman water would only work for three days and would become ineffective after three days.

The people complained bitterly and were outraged, cursing the temple attendants as good-for-nothings.

At this moment, the mountain god issued an edict. In broad daylight, the wind and clouds changed, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and a piece of silk cloth fell from the sky with a line of large characters written on it: God has pity on the world and has issued an edict. Those who worship sincerely will be cured of the plague.

When the people saw this, they thought that the mountain god was showing mercy. They didn't need to drink the talisman water, they just needed to worship sincerely to achieve the same effect as drinking the talisman water.

It was a great omen, so everyone bathed, changed their clothes, and went to worship the mountain god. Xianyun Temple was not big enough, so they made eighteen statues of the mountain god out of clay and placed them in various places for so many people to worship.

But at this time people discovered that people were still dying.

The temple attendant then came out to explain that the people who died were not sincere in their hearts, and only those with sincere hearts could be sensed by the mountain god and receive his protection.

When the people heard this, they thought it made sense.

The mountain god's decree states that only those who worship sincerely can recover from the plague.

So everyone was busy worshipping and no one asked why anymore.

What?

Are you sick?

That must be because you are not sincere.

what?

Your forehead is rotten from kowtow?

That won’t work either. What does sincerity have to do with the forehead?

If your heart is not sincere, your heart is not sincere.

The man died two days later.

Alas... this man was not sincere until his death, he deserved to die.

Therefore, those who have no money can worship sincerely, but those who are not sincere will die.

If you have money but your heart is not sincere, then you can buy talisman water. The talisman water is still effective. One bowl of talisman water lasts for three days and costs forty taels of silver.

Hey, why is it expensive again?

Because there are more people.

The deceased couple was of the type who had no money and could only worship sincerely.

But no matter how they prayed, their hearts were not sincere. They fell ill and died after suffering for a few days.

The shadowy lights captivate the soul, the judgment is weighed, and the black-robed man recites a poem: "Green waters and green mountains are in vain; Hua Tuo is helpless against the little insects. Thousands of villages are covered with lychees, and the remains of the people are gone; ten thousand houses are deserted and ghosts sing. Sitting on the ground, I travel 80,000 miles a day, surveying the sky and gazing at a thousand rivers. The Cowherd wants to ask the Plague God about his affairs, but his sorrows and joys are the same as those of the passing waves."

The ripples on the water dissipated.

Reward: Two Plague Pills.
