Looking at the old, young, young, and children in a village, catching locusts in the fields, and then they went to exchange for silver.

Mu Changqing's heart was filled with emotion.

There is no saying about ghosts and gods in the face of death and survival. Maybe they still believe in the saying that the Locust God surrenders, but in the face of silver, they have to offend the Locust God.

After all, you have to live a life.

If you can't live your life, you can only wait for death.

But who wants to die if you can live?

These are the simplest people. They just want to live a peaceful life, raise children, and watch them grow up and marry and have children. They are already satisfied with what they have to take responsibility for the mistakes of those in power.

"Old man, the locust god is not scary, what is scary is the human heart."

Leaving a sentence and hundreds of taels of silver, Mu Changqing shook his head and ignored the stunned old master, and pulled Liu Youde and the others to Qingping County.

It was already evening when we arrived in Qingping County.

The entire Qingping County was brightly lit, and the soldiers from Nandaying camp camped in Qingping County on the spot, and the entire county was filled with soldiers from Nanying.

The locusts in the county were culled by these soldiers who arrived in advance.

The locust corpses have also been cleaned up, and limes have been sprinkled around the streets.

This is to avoid subsequent epidemics.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Mu Changqing was a little surprised.

I thought Qingping County would be in chaos, but I didn't expect it to be much better than I thought.

While he was puzzled, he suddenly heard a shout behind him.

"Is Mr. Mu in front of me?"

Huh? Could it be that there are still acquaintances here?

Subconsciously turning around, Mu Changqing saw a soldier in armor walking towards him with great strides.

When he got closer, Mu Changqing realized that the soldier was Zhao Junjie, who had met several times.

"Hey, Miss Zhao, why are you here?"

Then Mu Changqing also understood that Zhao Junjie was originally the commander of the Nanying, so it was not surprising that he would be in Qingping County.

Mu Changqing was not surprised, but Zhao Junjie was very curious about Mu Changqing's place.

After looking up and down, they saw that they were more or less stained with locust corpses and blood, which was completely different from their usual handsome appearance.

Zhao Junjie also roughly knew Mu Changqing's intention to come here.

His face became much softer in an instant.

"Did Mr. Mu come for this locust plague?"

After spreading his hands, Mu Changqing looked helpless.

"What if it doesn't?"

Seeing Mu Changqing's clothes were broken and embarrassed at this time, Zhao Junjie smiled rarely. This was the first time Mu Changqing saw this cold-looking female general smile.

Even if I painted her portrait, gave her perfume, and handed her the subsequent chapters of the Legend of Sword and Fairy, I never saw her laugh.

But I was so happy to hear that I came for the locust plague.

This girl is afraid she is not stupid.

Mu Changqing was speechless.

He took Mu Changqing and others to the Qingping County Government and ordered the soldiers to arrange hot water for them to take a bath. Zhao Junjie returned to the street and directed the soldiers to prevent the locust plague.

After taking a shower happily, Mu Changqing changed into clean clothes and then walked out of the house.

Liu Youde and the groom smeared their bodies twice and fell asleep.

Mu Changqing had no heart to disturb them.

After working hard for several days, physical fatigue is secondary, and the sadness in my heart is the most suffocating.

Let them have a good sleep.

There were guards at the door, and when they saw Mu Changqing coming out, they hurriedly bowed.

Although I had never met Mu Changqing, I was the person personally ordered by my commander. I guess I was not rich but noble, so I did not dare to neglect at all.

The guard was probably only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a straight waist and a serious expression on his face.

Mu Changqing sat down on the steps beside him and started chatting with him.

"What's the situation in Qingping County now?"

The guard shook his head: "There are not many villages in Qingping County. Even if it is affected by locust plague, it is still within a control range. However, the adjacent Hua County..."

Halfway through speaking, the guard couldn't help but sob.

"There are many people dead... The whole county is covered with locusts, and countless people are buried in the sea of ​​fire with the locusts. We are late, we are late."

"There are corpses everywhere on the street, and countless locusts are lying on their bodies and gnawing them. They can't even drive away, and there is no sight to see the dead silence."

"I'm late, I'm late..."

At the end of the day, this young man with a strong spirit had already cried into tears, heartbreaking.

The guards not far away also turned their heads away, holding back the tears that were raging in their eyes, and preventing them from falling.

I have never seen that scene with my own eyes, and no one can experience the despair in their hearts.

After sucking his sore nose twice, Mu Changqing stood up and patted his shoulder and said softly, "It will get better, it will definitely get better."

Through the conversation that followed, Mu Changqing also learned that during the few days he rushed to Qingping County, the spread of locusts was astonishing.

In just a few days, half of the territory of the entire Great Yan was affected by locust plague.

In a few days, the Kyoto Chang'an of Dayan is probably not immune to it.

"How many soldiers have come to Nanying now?"

"Returning to the young master, a total of 100,000 soldiers from Nandaying have basically been transferred out of Chang'an and scattered in the major prefectures and counties in Yuzhou."

"Is it the only one you Nanying? But there are other people?"

"There are also several doctors from the Imperial Hospital who are accompanying you."

Imperial Hospital?

Could it be that the limes I saw on the street today are the masterpieces of the Imperial Hospital?

Thinking of this, Mu Changqing asked about the location of the house where the Imperial Hospital was located.

Then the guard pointed to the yard next to him, where the doctors of the Imperial Hospital lived.

The door was held by heavy soldiers.

Now these doctors are all treasures, so they are counting on them to save people, but they must not let them make any mistakes.

Mu Changqing came to the courtyard without being blocked by the guards and was released.

The Imperial Hospital accompanied three doctors.

Two of them rushed to two adjacent prefectures to save people, leaving behind a doctor named Su Qingyue.

In the courtyard, a woman was wearing an imperial physician uniform and was sitting in the yard with her back facing Mu Changqing, carefully taking care of the stove in front of her. There was a black porcelain bowl on the stove, with turbid liquid boiling inside the bowl, and a pile of dead locust corpses piled up beside her.

The woman was slender and had long black hair gently squipped with a wooden hairpin. Her holy face appeared in the rising fire.

Suddenly hearing footsteps from behind, Su Qingyue wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and then slowly turned around.
