Chapter 562: After the Epidemic

April 1787 in the Longzhou calendar

The plague that spread throughout Chaochang was finally suppressed under the massive supplies provided by a group of people of insight and Yulinzhai.

Chaochang, who had restored his peace, did not have much joy, only countless tears, and the cemetery outside the city had long since left no land for monuments, and the corpses could only be piled up on the streets, and the whole city emitted a foul smell.

If it is not dealt with, the second plague will appear again, several grandmasters of Yulinzhai convened the people of insight in Chaochang to discuss countermeasures, in addition to the families in the middle and upper districts, the doctors and monks who have made outstanding achievements in this plague are also invited, among which the heavenly maidens and holy Buddhas in the lower city are regarded as guests by Yulinzhai.

"I invite you to come this time, just to discuss the issue of the corpses on the streets of Chaochang, the significance of this sect is that according to the region, a special person is responsible for digging a large tomb in a specific area. Uneasiness regardless of whether men and women, nobles and lows, young and old, are buried together, what do you think?"

The person presiding over the meeting was Lu Shaolin, who was in Yulinzhai, and it seemed that he had already found a good way to discuss, so how could everyone dare to have any opinions, and they applauded.

And promised that we will do what Grandmaster Shaolin said, the atmosphere of the meeting was extremely peaceful, and the Chaochang family was united, saying that in the future, Yulin Zhai would be the first to look forward.

"Don't misunderstand, this plague happened suddenly, the Chaochang family has no leader, Yulinzhai is a southern sect, and it is a lot of benefits from Chaochang on weekdays, so naturally we can't sit idly by. But after all, Yulinzhai is a born sect, and he will not ask about Chaochang anymore when the matter is over, so Ma Shou is Zhanzhi said that he would not mention it again. ”

It was difficult for Lu Shaolin not to know the deep meaning of the words of these people in front of him, and immediately made Yulinzhai's position clear, so that the hearts of all the families were hanging in the air finally let go.

Why do these families continue to stay in Chaochang, is not for the benefit of reconstruction after chaos, every natural disaster is a shuffle, of which naturally some fall from a high place, but there are also some who jump from a low place.

It's like before the plague, the families in this group of council halls were only second-rate, but at this time, they have become the pillars of Chaochang, and only the parties know best how many wonderful things there are.

After Lu Shaolin expressed his attitude, the atmosphere in the meeting hall changed again, and many family masters on the table secretly communicated with each other with the transmission of sounds, and Tang Luo, who was sitting at the bottom of the room, listened to everyone's promises to come and go, and only smiled disdainfully.

The same step as Tang Luo is Yanshan, where has the monk who was discussed in the hall and invited to sit down have experienced this before, I thought it was to discuss how to clean up the corpse and return to Chaochang Qingming, but after Lu Shaolin spoke, there was only a secret communication between the families, and it was clear that the crisis had not been resolved, but the distribution of benefits had already begun.

There were few people in the field who were still concerned about the plague, and they were all thinking about what position they should stand in and rule that area after Chaochang rebuilt order.

Liu, whose clan is in Zhongcheng District, pointed to the center of the inner city and said: "Baihu Street is connected to Suzaku Street, and the central square has the most corpses, so my clan will be responsible for this!"

"This end of Qinglongfang City connects the east gate of the inner city and Qinglong Street, just near our clan's land, so this piece will be cleaned up by our clan. ”

God knows how the family living in the eastern part of Zhongcheng District is close to Qinglongfang City, and the families who have reached a tacit understanding have actually begun to stake their land.

And the map drawn by Yu Linzhai on the table is the basis for the division of their forces, Tang Luo can't understand how these people can transform the division map of the disaster area into a division map of forces, but these families who gather on the table and shout that you are fighting for me are really disgusting to watch.

Everyone is scrambling for the inner city area by the sea, or some valuable areas, and the lower and middle towns, which are really the hardest hit and littered with corpses, but no one cares.

What is the significance of such a regional division?

What made Tang Luo feel even more ridiculous was that while he was sitting here, there were already countless sentences of transmission handed over, most of which were statements such as wanting to form an alliance with the Tang clan and mentioning whatever conditions he wanted.

"So, this kind of family, one is counted as one, it's not a good thing. ”

Tang Luo's muttering was extremely abrupt in this council, and the family members wanted to pretend that they didn't hear it, but as more and more people were silent, those family masters finally couldn't pretend anymore.

The eyes of the council hall were all focused on Tang Luo's face, and there was embarrassed anger in it, embarrassed approval, and a lot of curiosity.

"Look at what I'm doing, you continue to talk, continue to pick fat and thin, and choose the best areas in the city, because there are "the most corpses" there!"

Tang Luo supported his chin with one hand, and casually pulled the map on the table with the other hand and said: "Don't worry, it's okay to go down the city no matter what, anyway, when the corpse changes, snakes, rats, insects and flies are infected with the poisonous plague, the plague or something will appear again soon, and then Chaochang will become a dead city, everything here is yours, what's the hurry!"

The family master who couldn't hold it on his face said strongly: "Why is Tang Tianjiao sneering, we just divide the central area first, naturally we won't fall behind other regions, we have to have a priority in doing things!"

Not bothering to pay attention to the family's search, Tang Luo turned his head to Lu Shaolin and said, "Grandmaster Shaolin, this method of burying the corpse in a unified manner may be a little inappropriate. ”

"Oh, what does Tang Tianjiao think? ”

"Burying the corpses may be able to block the circulation of the epidemic gas in the city, but this is not the way to eradicate the epidemic gas, these buried corpses will become food for snakes, insects, rats and ants, and once these poisonous gases are transformed by the poisonous insects, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

Tang Luo, who had communicated with the poisonous woman, knew that cultivating poisonous insects was, to put it bluntly, using poisonous meat, and what better material could be compared to the corpses of plague patients, if the practice of this mass grave was allowed to go, it would only lay a huge hidden danger for the future Chaochang.

Seeing that someone finally came out to talk to him about the plague, Lu Shaolin seemed very relieved: "Then does Tang Tianjiao have any better way?"

"You don't have to bury it, just burn it all. ”

Tang Luo shrugged his shoulders and said lightly: "Whether it is a man or a woman, a noble or a low, a young or old, or a patient's corpse, or others, as long as it is the corpse found by Chaochang, all of them will be incinerated, so as to prevent the resurgence of the plague and the regeneration of the source of poison to the greatest extent!"

As soon as the words fell, the fierce opposition of everyone resounded in the conference hall.

"Killing my father's enemy is just a crushing of bones and ashes, isn't Tang Tianjiao's move to trap the Chaochang family in injustice!"

"Whether it is a man or a woman, a noble or a lowly person, there is no corpse to be burned together, and the relatives will not even have a place to worship in the future, this is the good way you came up with?!"

"People die like lights extinguished, although they die of the epidemic, they also have the right to enter the earth for peace, even if the demon beasts in ancient times would leave bones when they fed on the human race, Tang Tianjiao wanted to incinerate this corpse into ashes, how could he bear it?"
