Liu Rengui was quickly put into jail and waited for his defeat. From the time he was welcomed to the time he was dismissed, it took only one meal.

Zhou Mingli twitched his mouth, looking at Wei Lian's decisive and decisive efficiency.

According to the rules and procedures, after they arrested Liu Rengui, they had to interrogate and find evidence, ask someone to sign and write, then count the names one by one, and finally report to Yongping.

After a hard work, it will take a lot of time to waste. This is exactly what you lack the most at the moment.

Wei Lian held the golden order in his hand and had the right to take action first and then report. Even so, it would take courage to solve a problem so quickly.

Zhou Mingli accepted a little contempt and admitted that the young master was not useless in politics.

At least it is different from the blind fingers he imagined.

Wei Lian asked: "Where is the magistrate?"

The magistrate was the deputy of the prefect. They came from Yongping and were not familiar with Jiangzhou's place, so it took a lot of time to investigate it from scratch. If you want to grasp the situation in Jiangzhou as quickly as possible, you still need a local official.

The two guards quickly took an official. Judging from his disheveled appearance, he was probably pulled up from the Gentle Land.

"Young Master Qi, someone brought it."

Cao Wuliang was hanging out with his concubine in the morning, but he was pulled over by a group of vicious officers and soldiers. He didn't even have time to wear a shoe. He was holding back his anger and was about to curse.

I think he is inferior to tens of thousands of people in Jiangzhou. Who dares to arrest him if he is desperate?

As soon as he was pulled in and threw it on the ground, he looked up and saw a young and handsome young man in white with a folding fan on his waist, his eyebrows and eyes slightly drooping, as beautiful as a painting.

Cao Wuliang was immediately obsessed with it.

The magistrate loves money and is lustful. He is secretly scolded by local people for "two major disasters in Jiangzhou". Cao Wuliang is not afraid of men and women. As long as he is beautiful, he likes to snatch them and play. He often does bully men and women, and the thin horses and children who are played to death by him are even less familiar with each other.

Wei Lian is undoubtedly the most beautiful person Cao Wuliang has ever seen. The most likable child in his house is not as beautiful as he is.

Cao Wuliang forgot his current situation and whispered in dismay: "Beauty..."

The guard immediately drew his sword. How could His Majesty's people allow this thing to covet it!

Zhou Mingli looked disgusted. Looking at the magistrate's fat appearance, he knew that he was like the one named Liu. He was directly locked in prison. What is the need for interrogation?

Wei Lian walked over slowly, squatted halfway in front of Cao Wuliang, folded the fan and gently lifted the man's chin, staring at the man's turbid old eyes.

Cao Wuliang smiled covetly: "Beauty, do you like me too-" he paused.

Several sharp spikes extended out of the fan bone, pressed against his neck, slashed his skin, and oozed out a slight blood. One inch deeper could cause him to splatter three feet of blood.

Cao Wuliang's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"Liu Rengui is dead." Wei Lian lied without changing his face, "Are you going to atone for your sins or go and accompany him?"

Cao Wuliang: "..."

After one stick of incense, all the information about the recent epidemic in Jiangzhou was placed in front of Wei Lian.

-

About a month and a half ago, the first strange disease occurred in Qingping County, Jiangzhou. A widower living alone died in his home. His whole body was frustrated and unrecognizable. If it weren't for the clothes he often wore, he wouldn't be able to tell that he was a person.

Before, the widower would go up the mountain to chop wood every day and sell it in the county. He had never left for several days, and the smell of stinking came from the house, which finally attracted the attention of the neighbors. After pushing the door in and checking, he screamed at the uninhabited corpse.

At first, no one reported the official, just thinking that the widower had some illness. Out of neighborhood friendship, the neighbor buried him. Unexpectedly, a few days later, the neighbor's family of three died suddenly.

At the same time, strange symptoms appeared on the people in the county who had contacted the family of three.

The patient's arms began to become bruised and itchy, and he kept scratching his arms, and then became more and more itchy. On the second day, the whole arm began to rot, and even a piece of flesh could be scratched. On the third day, the rot spread to his face and his appearance was completely ruined. On the fourth day, the person was already confused and even if he was not confused, he would be frightened and crazy when he saw his appearance. On the fifth day, most people could no longer hold on, and those who were not dead were like a corpse. The crow had already hovered in the sky, waiting to peck at the carrion. On the sixth day at the latest, the patient died.

No one has to last until the seventh day.

The disease first spread in a small area in Qingping County, causing panic. When I reported to the yamen, the yamen was not concerned about it and refused to say "If you get sick, find a doctor and find something to do in the yamen." Qingping County is poor, and there is only one old doctor in the county. He has always received very little medical treatment and is called a good friend and kind heart by the people.

During those days, the clinic was crowded, and those who were not sick were worried that they would get sick, so they had to go and see the doctor before they could feel relieved. But once a symptom appeared, the crowd quickly dispersed, as if they had seen a god.

Only the old doctor was not afraid and treated people as usual. But this strange disease was unheard of, and it was difficult for him to see the reputation. It was just that a few doses of medicine were convenient.

A few days later, a patient's son dragged his father's body to the door and said that the old doctor had prescribed medicine, but his father still had to blame him for his illness. The man sat on the ground and rolled around and spitted, saying that the old doctor had taken the medicine to death, and he earned bad money and asked someone to pay his life.

The old doctor replied helplessly: "I hope that people in the world will be free from illness, even if the medicine is on the pedestal. I practice medicine all my life, and I am competing with the King of Hell. If I win, I will naturally be happy, but I can't rob it... but I can't change my fate."

But the ignorant county people in remote areas could not understand it. They only knew that his father was dead and he had to find someone to take responsibility. The man wanted to beat the old doctor, but was stopped by other people, and they all accused the man of making unreasonable trouble.

Some of them really stand up for the old doctor, while others are selfish. If something happens to the old doctor, who will treat them?

The man was accused by everyone, his face turned red and he ran away in shame. A few days later, news came that the man was also sick and disappeared.

What's worse is that the old doctor also developed symptoms. I don't know which patient was infected during the consultation process.

People who had been watching the fun in the clinic before also got sick after returning.

Now people are angry.

They were extremely careful these days and kept their doors away. The only place they have been to is the clinic, which must have been passed down to them by the old doctor!

The news that the old doctor was infected even more confirmed this speculation.

Okay, they were useless to talk to the old guy, but the old guy passed on the disease to them! The angry people kicked open the door of the clinic, but found that the old doctor had already died of illness at home for many days.

The anger was not calmed down, and people smashed the clinic and burned it all. In the past, they praised his kindness, but once they touched their own interests, they scolded him for being extremely vicious.

The most terrible thing is the , the most terrifying thing is the human heart.

The poor old doctor has always felt guilty and ended up being so infamous after his death.

People smashed and burned the clinic, thinking that the god was burned to death, and they could rest assured from now on. However, there was no, and the strange disease was still spreading. The families of people who had previously been infected were also affected. When the disaster came, they all flew away. Some left their wives and children, while others were ruthless.

Then, a county citizen who traveled to and from the next Qingning County restaurant to deliver wine every day was infected on one day. Subsequently, a broke out in the Qingning County restaurant, and the entire kitchen was wiped out, and the diners who dined that day were not spared.

The disease spread to the next county, and the in Qingping County was finally unable to be hidden. The magistrate of Qingping County finally planned to report it to the magistrate. However, Liu Rengui was at the moment of promotion at that time, so he could not make any mistakes. After a conclusion with the magistrate, he decided to hide the matter.

One spread to ten thousand and a hundred. So far, s have occurred in six counties in the seven counties in Jiangzhou. Among them, Qingping County is the most serious, Qingning County is almost invaded, and the other four counties are relatively mild.

There is no case in Qingqiu County, the farthest. It is said that the local magistrate ordered the county to be enshrined as soon as he heard the news. In the near future, he stopped buying and living on stock. The magistrate of Qingqiu County once sent a message to the top to wait for support. Unexpectedly, the letter of request for help was piled up by Liu Rengui. Later, he planned to bypass the magistrate and directly sent someone to Yongping to report, but the letter was intercepted halfway. The person was also warned to wear small shoes, and now he was almost out of ammunition and food.

Zhou Mingli's eyes were filled with bloodshot reading of the sealed letters, slapped the table hard, grabbed Cao Wuliang's collar, his eyes were scarlet, and he gritted his teeth: "...Is this how you do things for the people?"

"That's how you become officials?!"

Cao Wuliang shivered tremblingly: "Qin, please spare your life! The young man has sent all the letters. Can you give me atonement for your sins..."

Wei Lian raised his eyes, gently patted his shoulder with a fan, and said gently: "It's done well."

Cao Wuliang was about to laugh, but the next moment he opened his eyes wide and fell down with his eyes open.

The red blood flowed out of the neck, dyeing the ground red.

Wei Lian took back the fan, but it was still a clean white fan, and there was no way to tell that it was stained with blood.

"It's a pity that sin is unforgivable."

Zhou Mingli relaxed his hand, looked down at the corpse, and then looked back at the young man's back.

Young Master Lian...

He actually saw His Majesty's invisible shadow of killing people while talking and laughing.

-

By figuring out what happened in Jiangzhou recently, you will understand how severe the situation in Jiangzhou is now.

Wei Lian went to see Zhou Yushan. The man had been taken down to change into clean clothes, and he was still quite young and strong.

When Zhou Yushan saw Wei Lian, he stuttered: "Young Master, Young Master."

He heard that others call Wei Lian like this.

"How many days have your sister been sick?" Wei Lian asked.

As soon as he mentioned his sister, Zhou Yushan's eyes turned red and he choked and said, "...it's been two days."

This strange disease will die within seven days, and his sister doesn't have much time left.

Wei Lian asked again: "Who did your sister come into contact with these days?"

Zhou Yushan shook his head: "My little sister has leg problems and has never been able to go out to meet people. It's all Cao Min and her mother to take care of her. Eight days ago, her mother died... and she turned out to Cao Min to take care of her alone. She had never had any contact with anyone during this period. Now everyone is in danger and doesn't go out much."

Wei Lian thought about something.

According to previous information, people who contract strange diseases must have had contact with patients. As for the first person who contracted the disease, they died, no one knows what he had come into contact with.

Zhou Yushan's mother got sick half a month ago and died eight days ago, but her sister fell ill two days ago, and it was six days apart.

In the past six days, his sister had only contacted Zhou Yushan.

But Zhou Yushan is a healthy person.

If you have any contact, you will get sick. Zhou Yushan once went to seek medical treatment with his seriously ill mother. Why is Zhou Yushan okay?

Wei Lian reorganized all the clues, and looked at the number of patients presented in each county again but were piled up, and found a problem.

Not all people who have been exposed to patients will get sick. Among patients, most children and the elderly are children, followed by women and the young and middle-aged are the least.

Zhou Yushan is a young man.

In the medical books that Wei Lian has read, a concept was proposed: diseases will contain some toxins. Some people have strong resistance, so the virus cannot invade them, and some people have weak resistance, so they will get sick.

Young men have good physical constitutions and can withstand viruses and avoid diseases, but it does not mean that they have not carried viruses on them. They can also infect others.

This way, it is hard to be guarded.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, his sister was not infected by Zhou Yushan, but by her mother. This shows that the disease has an incubation period, and it lasts for six days or even longer.

Whether it is asymptomatic infection or long incubation period, it is quite a bad thing.

What's worse is that both can happen at the same time.
