Alas, the people on the ground couldn't stop wailing, as if they were emitting a long mournful cry from their souls.
"Hey, we, we, ahem, are terminally ill, and our whole bodies are rotten like this. Staying at home is just like waiting for death, and it will also affect our family members. So, we should come out early and give our family members some life.
Chance!"
The endless desolate words forced Su Xiao's wrists to tremble.
Behind him, Zhao Zhaowu got off his horse and walked over.
"What's the situation? Is there any cure for this plague?"
Su Xiao felt her whole body stiffen for a moment. She had participated in wars of all sizes, and had seen many bloody scenes, but she had never seen this kind of extreme tension between morality and conscience. It was really enough to drive people crazy.
.
"We don't know yet, but the epidemic here has spread too severely. Everyone is full of the will to die and has long lost the consciousness of life."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhaowu also glanced at the dirty streets and darkened his eyes.
"Come here! Take all the injured to the abandoned temple in the south of the city and isolate them. In addition, let the casual imperial doctors diagnose and treat those who have not yet contracted the disease. Also, open the granary and give out porridge!"
With an order, the soldiers behind him started to move. Zhao Zhaowu moved his long arm and pulled Su Xiao aside.
"What? Seeing these things scares you?"
Su Xiao's face is really ugly now, as pale as a dead person, without any warmth at all.
"No, it's just that it's my first time to see such a tragic scene."
Zhao Zhaowu twitched the corner of his mouth. This was the first time he had seen such a bloody scene.
The little girl's thin body and the wailing behind her seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, and she seemed to be trembling slightly in the breeze.
He sighed softly, waved his long arm, and hugged her waist tightly, "Don't be afraid, I'm alone here."
Perhaps the scene in front of her was shocking to her soul, but Su Xiao was not in a hurry to get out of her body, she just shook her head one after another without making any sound.
In the distance, a tall figure sat on a war horse, staring at this place for a moment.
Hearing that Zhao Zhaowu would eventually lead his troops to Shanxi, Song Zeyi felt very uneasy and finally followed him on horseback.
Who would have thought that as soon as they entered the city of Shanxi, they would see such a scene that struck a chord in their souls.
There was a dense pain in his heart, combined with sourness, that almost annihilated Song Zeyi.
Song Zeyi twitched his lips in a self-deprecating manner, grabbed the reins in his hand, and walked towards the abandoned temple in the south of the city.
In the distance, Zhao Zhaowu and Su Xiao were not even aware of it.
"Okay, the people in the south of the city are still waiting for you. This disease is very dangerous. Even if you can't cure it, I won't cure you."
The soft and gentle words really did not seem to come from the mouth of a murderous prince.
"Are you kidding me?"
Lidya Su is not a fool, so he can definitely hear the clues.
Zhao Zhaowu also made no secret of it, with a sinister curve at the corner of his mouth.
"Yes, Gu is indeed coaxing you."
With a gentle word, Lidya Su clearly knew what he meant.
Shengsheng suppressed the little fear in his heart and pulled out of his body slightly.
"His Royal Highness is joking, I can't stand it."
After saying this, Su Xiao did not look back and walked towards the temple step by step.
Although I was a little shocked and panicked just now, I have completely adapted to it now.
Su Xiao was still thinking about the rare disease in her mind. In all her years of medical practice, she had never seen such a dangerous disease. According to the observation just now, it should be that after the infection, the whole body becomes red and then festers.
, unable to eat, and finally had to wait to die.
Over there, Song Zeyi had already arrived at the temple. There was a lot of wailing, there were ulcers on the patient's body, and flies were flying everywhere, like a purgatory on earth.
Someone with a keen eye recognized Song Zeyi.
"Master Song, why did you come to Shanxi?"
Song Zeyi had a handkerchief tied around his mouth, and only one of his eyes showed a sharp curve.
"What happened to those soldiers?"
Not far away, there were soldiers shouting around a sick man. The sad voice made people tremble in their hearts.
"That person is his mother."
With just this sentence, the two of them understood clearly and remained silent.
In this world, there are always some things that you cannot control and decide. You can only watch some beautiful and precious things gradually flow away and become the past tense of life.
Song Zeyi withdrew his eyes, "Is there any temporary way to suppress this disease?"
The emperor had clearly gone crazy, and the people he had brought to the prince this time were only a dozen or so. They were still a bunch of useless people who had not studied anything. They were hiding in the room and sighing.
"There is currently no way to suppress the plague."
One sentence is like the final judgment. At this moment, the lives of everyone on the ground are like a precarious string, completely shattered.
The huge wailing was like hands reaching out to be rescued from the abyss. It seemed that it could be grasped, but it seemed that it could not be grasped. It was really frustrating.
Song Zeyi knew that he could not help him much, so he turned around and walked out.
Outside, the soldiers acted quickly and had already set up a soup kitchen.
"Mother, mother, ah, mother!"
In the midst of a crazy crowd, a little girl fell to the ground, her clothes all covered with dust, and she cried, her childish voice mostly buried in the dust.
Song Zeyi raised his eyebrows and stepped forward to hug the little girl.
"Little girl, where is your mother?"
"Mother, mother is sick and can't speak. She, she was taken away. I want mother, mother."
The most tender voice tells the saddest and most helpless things in the world.
Song Zeyi felt a burst of sadness in his heart. He stood up and wrapped the little girl in his arms, "Uncle, I will take you to have something to eat!"
"Young Master!" Behind him, Bamboo Shadow ran over in a sprint.
"Young Master, why didn't you tell your subordinates that you came here? The subordinates found out on their own and ran over."
Seeing Zhu Ying, Song Zeyi was also very surprised. It was too dangerous here. It was very likely that he would get sick and die here. This was his own decision. He didn't want Zhu Ying to be in danger with him.
"My father asked you to come?"
Zhuying suppressed the expression on his face and showed a serious look, "The master knew that I was coming and didn't stop him."
"You shouldn't have come." Song Zeyi suddenly said this with a sullen face.
However, Zhuying raised the corner of his lips and smiled, "I will follow the young master and never abandon you."
Song Zeyi gave the little girl in his arms to Zhuying, "Take her to the porridge shop to order something to eat, feed her, and coax her."
Before Zhuying could say anything, a soft little dumpling was thrown into his arms.
