Chapter 446: The situation is dire
According to Baoyun's plan, Xiushan County should be able to arrive this morning, but after a delay in coming and going, it was late at night.
Before entering Xiushan County, according to the doctors' explanations, everyone covered their faces with face towels before entering the city.
The magistrate of Xiushan County waited at the gate of the city early in the morning, and waited for people to come in the middle of the night without saying anything, seeing Baoyun was like seeing the savior Bodhisattva, and immediately knelt in front of Baoyun, and said with tears: "The county lord is finally here, and the lower officials are finally looking forward to you." ”
Bao Yun hurriedly bent down and picked up the county order, and said, "The county commander is polite, it's cold outside, let's go into the city and say it again." ”
The county order was full of answers, and said: "What the county lord said is that the lower officials were negligent. The inns have been cleaned, and the soldiers' quarters have been prepared. ”
The group entered Xiushan County, it was late at night, coupled with the snow disaster and the plague, the street was deserted, there was no one, and the wind blowing seemed to be extremely cool.
Looking at such a scene, Baoyun's heart was not happy.
"Where are the victims?" She changed her mind at the moment and didn't plan to go to the inn first.
The county commander bowed and said, "It's in the west of the city." It's too late now, so it's better to leave the official early tomorrow morning and take the county lord there. ”
"It's okay, I just want to go and see how it goes, so what can I do tomorrow to have a charter." Bao Yun still insisted on going.
Wei Rong knew that he couldn't stop Baoyun, so he didn't stop it, so he followed Baoyun silently. Because he had been silent, he had no sense of presence, and the county magistrate did not notice him.
The county seat was not large, and after a quarter of an hour, they came to the place where the refugees were settled.
Seeing these displaced people, the county magistrate's heart was also very uncomfortable, sighed, and said sadly: "It's really miserable, not only the houses have fallen, but the poultry that some people have worked so hard to raise have also frozen to death one after another." Others did not have time to harvest their food, and all of them were buried in the snow. This year, there is no harvest. ”
"This is already miserable enough, but there is also a plague, and some people are ...... at home The dead are gone. As he spoke, the county commander's eyes turned red.
Bao Yun also sighed, standing in front of the victim's residence, just watching, with no intention of going in. If she goes in now,
It also disturbed the rest of these victims.
But when she saw that there were no sick people here, she asked, "Aren't the plague-infected people here?" ”
The county magistrate wiped his tears and replied: "The people infected with the plague are all placed in the Zhuangzi outside the city, which is the Zhuangzi contributed by a family in the county seat. ”
Baoyun nodded and said, "Let's go back to the post house first, and talk while walking on the road." ”
The county commander ordered someone to lead the way in front, and he followed Baoyun's side, ready to tell a long story about the situation in the county.
"Xiushan County has eight villages, a total of 466 households, 8,523 people are registered, 2,500 people have come to the county seat, and some of the rest have gone to relatives and friends, and some of their families are not very seriously affected and are still in the villages, but such people
Not much, just over a thousand people. ”
Bao Yun listened and roughly calculated in her heart, there are more than 8,000 people, and there are less than 4,000 people in Xiushan County, so the rest of the people ......
"How many people have taken refuge with relatives and friends?" Bao Yun asked.
Hearing this, sadness appeared in the eyes of the county magistrate, and said: "Only when the disaster happened, more than 1,000 people left Xiushan County, and after the plague occurred, they didn't let people go out." Others...... The others died. ”
After saying that, the county order wiped his tears, as long as he thought of the scene of corpses all over the field, he couldn't help but feel sad, those are all living human lives.
Bao Yun was also shocked, about 3,000 people died in Xiushan County, which is one-third of the population of Xiushan County.
Even Wei Rong couldn't help but be a little moved.
Bao Yun adjusted her mentality for a moment, and then asked, "What did you do with the corpse?" ”
"At the beginning, the corpses were ordered to be burned, but later more and more people died, and there were not enough people, so they were all placed in the snow outside the city."
The body was not burned, which is absolutely unacceptable.
Bao Yun frowned and continued to ask, "Where did the plague first come from, and what were the symptoms?" ”
"The plague started in Xiushan County, and the Sixth Highness stayed in Xiushan County at the beginning, but after the plague broke out in Xiushan County, the Sixth Highness returned to Ningshui City."
Ningshui City is where the county guard of Xianning County is located, and Yan Chen retreated after the plague, which is really a pity.
Bao Yun thought about it and smiled coldly in her heart, putting this matter aside for the time being.
"The plague first came out of Wujia Village, and almost all the people in Wujia Village died." The more the county order said, the more painful it became, but no matter how painful it was, he had to continue, "The symptoms are low-grade fever at the beginning, and then diarrhea does not stop, and it can't be stopped." And for the next two days, there was no salvation. In just two days, more than 1,000 people died, and now there are more than 1,000 people infected, and the county will not come again, and the 1,000 people will ......."
The 1,000 people were not saved, and the county order was really unspeakable.
Bao Yun thought back to the plague in South Vietnam, and these symptoms could be matched, but the specific symptoms would not be known until the doctor had seen them.
Having said that, before they knew it, they had arrived at the door of the post house, but Baoyun still had no doubts to solve, so she invited the county order in, and said, "I still bother the adults to explain in detail the response to the snow disaster." ”
Maybe she'll find some clues in it.
"At the beginning, when I noticed that this year's snow was falling very early and very heavy, people began to rush to harvest grain, but the natural disasters were ruthless, and a lot of grain was buried by the heavy snow, which was the life of the farmers. roots, and began to dig out the grain from the snow. It wasn't until someone began to freeze to death that the house was crushed by the heavy snow, and then the Sixth Highness also came. He said that the people's will is the sky, and while the people are settled, they must snatch the grain out of the snow, so that no one will take care of the dead poultry, plus some people are reluctant to eat those dead poultry, and the lower officials think that the plague may come like this
Target. ”
Listening to what the county order said, Baoyun really didn't know what to say. She had thought that it would be very difficult to investigate the cause of the plague, but if the situation was really as the prefectural order said, then the cause would be very obvious.
Bao Yun knew everything she wanted to know, and personally sent the county order out, turned around and asked Wei Rong, "What do you think about this matter?" ”
Wei Rong poured her a cup of hot tea and said, "Don't you already have an idea of what to do?" ”
