Chapter 322: Life and Death 2
After Shi Jin came out of the space, he found that there was no one on the city wall.
Without the resistance of the people, a large number of blood puppets outside the city have poured into the city.
Shi Jin and Shi Xiaomian looked at each other and felt vaguely uneasy.
The two men walked quickly towards the city, and immediately killed any Blood Doom Puppets they saw on the way.
When encountering a large number of Blood-Evil Puppets, Shi Jin used space to accurately locate and deliver the Sky-shaking Bomb.
Shi Xiaomian used his magic power to kill the Bloody Puppet.
The two cooperated with each other and fought their way out.
However, when Shi Jin flew over the eaves and looked down, his footsteps paused, and the tiles under his feet made a slight sound.
Shi Xiaomian followed her gaze.
Luo Yi, King Shengqing, King Jing'an and others were besieged by the Blood Evil Puppets, and those puppets were the secret guards of the Royal Guards and Fengyun Pavilion.
Their faces were distorted and their eyes were white and empty. They had obviously lost their self-awareness and turned completely into blood-curdling puppets that only knew how to eat people.
"Xiao Mian, help!"
Before he finished speaking, Shi Xiaomian immediately cast a spell, and a huge blue energy surged, knocking all the blood puppets that were besieging everyone away and knocking them to the ground.
Everyone was shocked and looked up, only to see Shi Jin and Shi Xiaomian flying down from the eaves.
When Luo Yi saw Shi Jin, his eyes lit up instantly and he immediately went forward to hug her: "Jin'er, where have you been? I was so worried!"
This question left Shi Jin speechless for a moment. It was really difficult to answer, so she had to change the subject.
Shi Jin came out of her arms, his eyes filled with anxiety: "Where's Ayu? Why don't you see him?"
"After you disappeared, he went to the detonation zone, and now I don't know where he is."
Luo Yi shook his head slightly, his face full of worry.
"King Shengqing, your arm!" King Jing'an's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Several people looked at King Shengqing's hand, and then gasped.
There were obvious bite marks on King Shengqing's arm, and blood was oozing out.
When I was besieged by the Blood Doom Puppets, I didn't know when I was bitten, and I just realized it now.
Shi Jin's heart suddenly tightened and his eyes turned red.
She knew all too well the pain of losing a loved one.
She didn't want Fanhua to experience this feeling.
They haven't lived happily together yet...
She stepped forward and said anxiously, "Father..."
King Shengqing took two steps back, a look of determination flashed across his face: "Don't come over!"
There was a restrained tremor in the hoarse voice.
Shi Jin paused, set his eyes on Shi Xiaomian, pulled her arm, and asked anxiously: "Xiao Mian, is there any way to save him?"
Shi Jin knew that there was no cure once bitten, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope and asked Shi Xiaomian.
Shi Xiaomian showed helplessness and sadness on her face. She shook her head and said with difficulty: "There's nothing I can do."
King Shengqing closed his eyes slightly, as if he was suppressing his emotions, and then opened his eyes with a gentle look in his eyes: "Jin'er, you and Nannan and his wife should support each other and live a good life. His mother and I will protect you in heaven."
As soon as these words came out, Shi Jin knew that King Shengqing intended to die.
Shi Jin shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice filled with sobs, her heart filled with grief and anxiety.
"Father, you haven't said goodbye to Ayu yet...wait for him to come..."
King Shengqing thought of Fan Hua's face in his mind, and his eyes were full of reluctance and worry for Fan Hua.
But he knew very well that he could not afford to hesitate at this moment, for fear that he would turn into a monster and die together with those monsters while he was still conscious.
The roar of Blood Destiny Puppets was heard in the distance, and a new wave of Blood Destiny Puppets rushed over here.
King Shengqing gritted his teeth, holding back his tears, his eyes revealing a resolute look: "You guys go quickly, leave this to me!"
After saying that, he picked up the shield beside him and ran forward, killing the Bloody Puppets while leading them to the detonation point not far away.
Shi Jin stood there in a daze, his face filled with grief.
"Let's go..." Shi Xiaomian took her hand and left immediately.
"boom"
With a loud bang, flames shot up into the sky and the Blood Puppet was blown to pieces.
At this moment, Shi Jin's heart seemed to be crushed.
Tears blurred her eyes. She clenched her fists and said in a trembling voice, "How should I tell him..."
Shi Xiaomian knew the pain in Shi Jin's heart. With red eyes, she hugged her reluctantly and patted her back gently.
"You need to cheer up quickly, we still have important things to do."
at the same time.
A group of blood puppets gathered at the entrance of the palace, banging on the palace gate frantically, preparing to come in.
The door was blocked by a group of imperial guards.
Wei Dong led his men to climb up the city wall and break out to the other side.
Kill all the blood puppets at the palace gate before entering.
Elsewhere, the dim candlelight in the underground palace flickered.
A woman suddenly started coughing violently, her palms were bloodshot, her body swayed, and finally she collapsed to the ground powerlessly.
The daughter beside her panicked and threw herself on her mother crying, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Mom!"
Her trembling hands tightly grasped her mother's bloodstained clothes, and her voice was full of fear and helplessness.
The sudden situation attracted the attention and discussion of everyone in the house.
The sudden situation instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
People gathered around and discussions broke out one after another.
"Oh, why are you coughing up blood for no reason?" An old man in hemp clothes frowned, his eyes full of confusion.
"Is this old lady going to die?" The man in black looked nervous and subconsciously took half a step back.
Xu Ruogu was originally sorting the medicinal materials in the medicine box. When he heard the noise, he immediately pushed through the crowd and squeezed in.
"What's wrong?" Zhilu followed closely behind.
"Hey, why is this kid making trouble?" A lady in yellow clothes grumbled in dissatisfaction and stretched out her hand to stop him.
Zhilu followed closely behind Xu Ruogu, his eyes wide open, glaring at the old lady fiercely, and loudly defended: "What are you talking about? He is a very good doctor and is the best at treating illnesses!"
The woman's daughter seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw. She grabbed Xu Ruogu's sleeve and burst into tears: "Doctor, please, come and see what happened to my mother."
Xu Ruogu squatted down, placed his fingers on the woman's pulse, and his expression became more solemn.
After a moment, he lifted the woman's eyelids and looked carefully at the blood on her hands.
Finally, he said in a gloomy tone, "She has the plague."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
"What? Plague? It's contagious!" someone in the crowd shouted in horror.
"Don't let this plague kill us before we finish killing all the bloody puppets outside!"
"That's right, throw her out right now! We can't let her stay here and infect everyone!"
"Throw it out! Throw it out!"
Everyone was talking and pushing each other, their faces full of fear and indifference.
Some people even reached out to drag the woman's body.
"No..." The woman's daughter held on to her tightly and refused to let go.
Zhilu and Xu Ruogu on the side also helped to stop it.
At this time, Yun Bohou was on patrol. Hearing the noise here, he frowned and immediately rushed over here with big strides.
"What happened?"
Seeing Marquis Yun and the imperial guards coming over, they all made way for them.
Yun Bohou was slightly stunned when he saw the familiar face. He walked over quickly and asked in confusion, "Gu'er, Zhilu, what's going on?"
"She has the plague and needs to be isolated as soon as possible, otherwise she will infect the people in the underground palace."
Marquis Yunbo looked solemn and said, "I will report this matter to His Majesty for a decision."
Xu Ruogu comforted him, "Don't worry, I will cure it, damn it."
Xu Ruogu was glad that he found the person in time and was saved.
Marquis Yun reported to Your Majesty the sudden outbreak of plague in the underground palace.
In the hall with flickering candlelight, Xu Wusheng looked solemn, and the memorial in his hand trembled slightly.
This is at a time when the Blood Plague Puppets are wreaking havoc. If the plague spreads in the palace, the consequences will be disastrous.
After pondering for a long time, His Majesty's eyes fell on Yun Bohou: "Call Xu Ruogu and all the imperial doctors here."
Soon, Marquis Yun brought several imperial doctors into the hall.
Xu Wusheng looked at Xu Ruogu and said, "Xu Ruogu, you are a great doctor. I order you to take full charge of this matter. The entire Imperial Hospital will obey your orders. Are you willing?"
"The grassroots are willing."
"Imperial Physician Chen, you must fully cooperate and not make any mistakes!"
"We obey your order." Imperial Physician Chen and others knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
After receiving the order, Yun Bohou quickly gathered everyone and announced the emperor's will: "Don't panic, the emperor has issued an order to order all the imperial doctors to do their best to treat and prevent the epidemic. Everyone must be safe. The underground palace must strictly follow the deployment. Those who violate the order will be punished by military law!"
Yun Bohou's words gradually calmed the crowd's restlessness and anxiety.
Xu Ruogu was fully aware of the heavy responsibility and immediately began to make arrangements.
"The underground palace has poor air circulation, so it is very easy to get infected. It is best to carry the woman out of the underground palace and isolate her in a separate room."
Imperial Physician Chen and others nodded in response.
"Also, sprinkle lime water inside the underground palace to drive away the pathogenic qi."
The imperial physician, relying on his years of rich experience, twirled his beard and added, "I suggest that we boil a decoction to eliminate toxins and strengthen the exterior, and use astragalus, patchouli, and perilla to aromatically dissolve turbidity, ward off plague, clear miasma, and strengthen the body to resist evil!"
"So good."
"Doctor Chen, you need to be responsible for the protection of the underground palace, and I will do my best to treat the woman in the palace."
"Okay." Imperial Physician Chen replied.
After arranging the relevant matters, everyone took action and there was a busy atmosphere inside and outside the underground palace.
Everyone in the Imperial Medical Bureau was responsible for preparing herbs and decocting medicines.
The imperial guards in the underground palace were responsible for spreading lime water.
Zhilu followed Xu Ruogu out of the underground palace and assisted him.
To ensure safety, His Majesty ordered Li Muci to lead a group of troops to escort the troops.
"The medicine is ready. Follow me to distribute it to everyone." Imperial Physician Chen led a group of followers to bring the medicine to where the people lived.
Marquis Yun brought the imperial guards to maintain order and distributed the medicine to everyone.
Imperial Physician Chen was walking among the crowd. Seeing the old man trembling with the medicine bowl in his hand, he stepped forward to support him and poured the medicine into his bowl: "Old man, although this medicine is bitter, it can strengthen the body and ward off evil."
