Although the investigation was progressing smoothly, it was inevitable that there would be discordant voices.
Some of the rich families in the city were used to being lazy and did not want to queue with the commoners.
Whenever they went out, they would be surrounded by people and horses. It was even more common to cut in line. It was inevitable that conflicts would arise.
In addition, some of the refugees had no way to survive for a long time. Some people took advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters. They either took the gold and silver of others or wanted to take advantage of a young lady in order to become a son-in-law.
Fan Yi listened to Imperial Doctor Tian’s suggestion and used his thunderous methods.
Anyone who did not cooperate with the investigation and caused trouble, regardless of whether they were rich or poor, would be dealt with severely.
In an instant, a few heads fell to the ground. They were all unlucky enough to be caught in the storm.
They were sentenced on the spot and sent to meet the King of Hell on the spot.
With such intimidation, no one dared to stir up trouble anymore. Each and every one of them shrank their heads and tucked their tails between their legs.
Even the landlord merchants who boasted of their good relationship with Fan Yi did not dare to provoke his current temper.
After MO Ruyue learned of this, she clapped her hands and said with a smile, “That’s right. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary things. We need to use heavy punishment to deter those scoundrels from the ghost realm.”
“It is also because of Sir Fan’s kindness. If it were me, I would have sent a batch of people away before the epidemic claimed their lives.”
Her words sounded like a joke, but only Imperial Doctor Tian knew how true her words were.
Thinking back to how she had dealt with those who had gone against her,
Imperial Doctor Tian could not help but rejoice that he had agreed to MO
Ruyue’s request to stay behind in the quarantine village.
To put it bluntly, this decision had saved a group of people’s lives.
Everything was in order in Chu City, and the neighboring village was also peaceful.
After the first round of investigation, another ten people were diagnosed and sent to the quarantine village.
The village that had taken in undiagnosed secret contacts had also been vacated and people were being taken in one after another. Once someone had symptoms, they would be sent to the quarantine village.
However, to MO Ruyue, this was just a formality.
The patients with mild illnesses would recover immediately after being injected with her medicine. The water that those who were in close contact with her drank had been diluted by her spiritual spring water, so there was no possibility of infection.
However, the process still had to be done, and the acting had to be realistic so that it would not arouse suspicion.
MO Ruyue came out of the space again and filled up the empty bottle.
The epidemic in Chu City was discovered early and dealt with early. In her opinion, it would be completely under control in a few more days.
The most important thing was that the county magistrate Fan Yi resolutely withstood the pressure from the two of them and directly sealed the city gate.
No one was allowed to enter or leave.
This first eliminated the source of infection from the outside, and also prevented the possible source of infection from escaping from the city.
The source was blocked in both directions, and only this pool of water was left. How much wind and waves could it cause?
Not to mention, MO Ruyue had also provided him with a special “preventive medicine”. The terrifying epidemic that could have killed a large number of people in the south was like a docile little sheep in Chu City. It was no longer a threat.
Suddenly, a wolf howl came from outside the village, alerting the soldiers guarding the village.
When MO Ruyue heard the familiar voice, she immediately realized that it was the giant wolf that Gu Ying had taken away.
Just as she walked out of the courtyard, she saw a soldier running over in a hurry.
“Don’t worry, Lady Qin. Us brothers have already gone to check everywhere. We will definitely guard it strictly and not let that beast outside have the chance to enter the village and hurt people.”
“It doesn’t matter. It’s spring now. Even the hungry wolves in the mountains have prey to eat. They are smart. Unless they will starve to death, they will not easily risk being killed to enter the village.”
“You all rest in peace. I’ll go take a look.”
How could she let these soldiers take the risk? Of course, she could not let the giant wolf be in danger as well.
One had to know that the wolf’s body was even bigger than a half-grown buffalo. If anyone saw it, they would be scared out of their wits.
“Lady Qin, are you going out?”
The soldier asked in surprise.
Which young lady didn’t hide in fear when she heard the wolf’s howl, but this one in front of him still wanted to go out.
Wasn’t she afraid of being bitten by a wolf?
“Yes, don’t worry. I’ll be fine. Even if dozens of wolves come, they won’t be my match.”
MO Ruyue said confidently.
Although she was speaking the truth, to the soldiers, it was obvious that she was bragging.
Even the most experienced hunter would not dare to say that he would not be at a disadvantage when facing dozens of wolves alone. It would be good enough if he was not bitten into pieces.
However, he did not dare to say such offensive words.
It was said that this lady also had some martial arts skills. Moreover, from the sound of the wolf’s howl, it was like a lone wolf. Moreover, it was far away from the village, so there should be no problem.
“Why don’t I go out with you? I’ll see if you want to relax or dig up some herbs. At least with someone by your side, you won’t be afraid even if you encounter wolves.”
The soldier sincerely recommended himself.
He was really afraid that something would happen to MO Ruyue. Not to mention whether the magistrate would blame him, even his comrades would not let him off easily.
After witnessing this lady’s miraculous medical skills, who wouldn’t want to build a good relationship with her? They hoped that if they ever needed her help in the future, they wouldn’t be rejected.
Of course, MO Ruyue rejected this suggestion.
How could she receive Gu Ying’s message with a follower?
Under her insistence, the soldier could only give up the idea of accompanying her and return to his sentry post resentfully.
MO Ruyue left the village openly with a basket on her elbow. She pretended to be ready to pick herbs and walked into the distance under the eyes of the soldiers.
MO Ruyue only stopped when the soldiers could no longer see her.
Not long after, a huge wolf appeared beside her, shaking its head and wagging its tail coquettishly, appearing extremely affectionate.
She took out a huge piece of raw meat from her space and threw it to the giant wolf. It immediately wolfed down the meat.
MO Ruyue took off the collar around its neck and took out a piece of paper from the box.
After reading them all, her expression became solemn.
“The matter of the Bai family is indeed a little troublesome.”
In MO Ruyue’s dictionary, there was nothing impossible. Of course, there was nothing she could do.
Even if she had offended the power of a country, she had done such a thing before.
In the past, subverting a country’s political power was no different from eating cabbage and drinking cold water to her.
Those who were disobedient could be killed. It was not difficult to choose an obedient person from the crowd who wanted to be promoted.
Although they were in a different time and space now, it was still the same old thing.
It was said that the old emperor sitting in the court did not have a particularly good reputation.
It would be best if she did not step on his thunder spot. Otherwise, it should not be difficult to change the dynasty.
After reading it, she brought the giant wolf back to her space and wrote a letter to Gu Ying.
Master Bai had gone to the south again, and there was a high chance that he would bump into the prince in charge of disaster relief. When that happened, enemies would meet on a narrow road, and it would be easy for something to happen.
It seemed that she still had to make this trip. She couldn’t just watch Old Master Bai die.
The impression she had of the little old man was that he was extremely righteous and a warm-hearted person. She was very confident that she would not be wrong about this..
