Chapter 341 Emotional flooding is the original sin
"It should be that Chen Guangfa is right, but there is no evidence now. Now we just need to protect the village chief. For Chen Guangfa, there is no need to kill those who are sick."
Duan Jiu said: "Have you ever seen those patients? Do you think it is possible that they were spread artificially?"
Duan Jiu had previously thought about spreading smallpox and causing a plague in Yong, so that he could take advantage of the chaos to escape and plan his own major events. Looking at this now, Duan Jiu felt that the possibility of man-made manipulation was very high.
Jiang Fang said: "It's not impossible. This disease is also an epidemic, but the incubation period can be long or short. Generally, you will get sick immediately after getting sick.
It’s just that it’s difficult to find the pathogen of this disease, which means the source of infection, and ordinary people have no way to get the method to cause the disease. Unless..."
Jiang Fang hesitated to speak, but Duan Jiu said: "Unless Chen Guangfa himself is the source of the infection, in order not to affect his longevity, he has not gone home for a long time.
You said that the disease can have an incubation period, so it is possible that Chen Guangfa had this disease a long time ago, but he only became ill now, so people in the village have been getting sick recently."
Jiang Fang nodded. The incubation period of leprosy can last from two to ten years. During the incubation period, if the leprosy bacillus is dormant, it is almost non-infectious. It will only become infectious when it becomes ill.
But how could Chen Guangfa get leprosy for no reason? Logically speaking, if someone in the village was infected with this disease, it would basically cause an epidemic.
However, this village seems to have seen this disease for the first time. Chen Guangfa is an exception. Even though he had leprosy, it did not spread. This may be related to his own immunity.
"The top priority is to find Chen Guangfa, but we must be careful. He is still sick. If it spreads among this group of people, the consequences will be disastrous."
Jiang Fang returned to Chang Sheng's home. Chang Sheng had already fallen asleep, but Jiang Fang couldn't fall asleep. Finally, he said to Duan Jiu: "Tell me, how did Chang Sheng's mother die?"
Duan Jiu said, "You already have the answer in your mind, don't you?"
Jiang Fang didn't say anything. She thought that Chen Guangfa's illness was probably caused by Changsheng's mother, but why would Changsheng be fine?
However, since Changsheng's body is so weak, he may not have developed immunity to the leprosy bacillus. The leprosy bacillus causes disease by stimulating the body's immunity. If there is no immunity, then there will be few symptoms.
Jiang Fang quietly came to Changsheng's house and took Changsheng's pulse again. Changsheng's body was a little weak, but there seemed to be no other problems.
Jiang Fang woke Chang Sheng up, and then took blood from his hand to culture it to see if the leprosy bacillus was just sleeping in his body, so there was no abnormality in his pulse.
The next day Jiang Fang went to see the village chief. The village chief was locked up in the ancestral hall and didn't sleep a wink all night. He probably didn't know that both Wang Li and Huang Yong were dead.
Jiang Fang looked at the haggard village chief and asked, "Are you an accomplice or an accomplice?"
The village chief's eyes widened, but then the light in his eyes dimmed again, and he said: "Sacrificing a living person to immortality is my idea and has nothing to do with anyone else."
"I'm not talking about immortality. Wang Li and Huang Yong are both dead, and several other people are also sick, including your son. I'm afraid he's not far away from death. Don't you think you should say something?"
The village chief gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know anything, but the child is innocent. Please save the child, he doesn't know anything."
Jiang Fang cursed angrily: "The child is innocent? How do you know that the child is innocent now? When you sacrificed yourself to immortality, did you ever think that the child was innocent? Or are you saying that only your child is innocent?
Woolen cloth?"
The village chief lowered his head and said nothing. After a long time, he smiled and said, "It's Changsheng's mother who misses him and wants him to accompany her. What I did was just following her wishes."
Jiang Fang was stunned by what the village chief said, but it also confirmed that Changsheng's mother must have contracted leprosy, but it was unclear whether she died of the disease.
So when they saw that these sick people looked the same as the Changsheng mother before she died, they began to be afraid, thinking that the Changsheng mother had come back to ask for her life, so they wanted to sacrifice the Changsheng mother, right?
So what did they do back then that made them so afraid of the immortal mother and made Chen Guangfa keep killing people?
Jiang Fang had a vague answer in his heart, but he didn't want the truth to be what he thought. If it was true, then this would be too unacceptable.
Jiang Fang asked: "Actually, if you don't say it, someone will say it, but if you really don't want this life, then forget it. Of those few people, you will be the only one left."
In fact, Jiang Fang doesn't need to find out what happened that year. She doesn't even need to care if Chen Guangfa kills people. She just needs to take care of the epidemic here.
But every time Changsheng asked herself where his father had gone, she would feel a little uncomfortable in her heart. Changsheng was only a few years old, and he shouldn't have to bear this.
Jiang Fang gave the village chief a chance, but the village chief did not speak. Just when Jiang Fang turned to leave, he suddenly hit the wall and died on the spot.
After Jiang Fang learned about it, he did not go back to see it. He just said: "Since he is dead, I think this matter should be considered over."
Duan Jiu said: "There are still two people locked up behind the ancestral hall. I guess Chen Guangfa will not be willing to give in, and may even take action."
Duan Jiu's meaning was obvious, but Jiang Fang was unwilling to do so. She didn't know if her guess was right. If it was right, then Jiang Fang would rather kill Chen Guangfa before he died.
Jiang Fang never believed that there was absolute fairness in ancient times. If it really existed, Chen Guangfa might not have endured it for so many years. When he was about to die, he began to make his last wish in this life.
Duan Jiu knew what Jiang Fang was thinking and said, "But you are immersed in your own speculation now. What if things are not what you think?
Then you are condoning a murderer, and he will only become more and more arrogant in killing people. Because of your tolerance, he may have more and more dead souls in his hands."
"But the facts are all in front of us, right? Why is Wang Li afraid? Why did the village chief hit the wall and die when he mentioned this matter?
They all feel guilty, don't they? If they didn't do anything wrong, what are they hiding? They also want to kill all the immortals, one by one, are they really being wronged? "
Duan Jiu said: "If everyone in the world does whatever they want, what is the use of this king's law? It is true that today's king's law cannot restrain everyone, but at least the world is still in order.
If the world is as law-enforcement and emotional as you are, what kind of chaos will this world be like? People must have seven emotions and six desires, but if they do something wrong, even if the circumstances are excusable, they should pay the price for the wrong thing they did."
