Chapter 301: Epidemic

Qin Feng, who couldnt ride a horse, naturally had to sit on someone elses horse.

He had initially hoped to ride with Miss Cang, but Master Si was too quick. With one move, he lifted Qin Feng onto the horse.

Riding on the Huarong Road was fine since the road was smooth.

However, to reach Shuliang City, they had to pass through continuous mountain ranges.

The mountain paths were steep and the journey was rough. As the horse moved up and down, the gourd on Master Sis back would occasionally hit Qin Fengs sensitive areas.

Qin Feng once again put on the mask of suffering, recalling the painful experience of going to Qiyuan City.

Fortunately, after a day of galloping, just before the sun set, the group finally arrived in Shuliang City without stopping.

Qin Feng eagerly got off the horse, feeling like he had come back to life.

After entering the city, Amu said, Theres no time to waste. You should go and meet the county magistrate with me as soon as possible.

Qin Feng was curious, Isnt the priority to visit the people affected by the epidemic first?

Amu shook his head, Physician Qin, you may not know. To prevent the spread of the epidemic, the county magistrate has isolated the infected people in one place, and no one is allowed to visit without his permission. Only after obtaining his permission can we go and see those infected with the epidemic.

Qin Feng frowned at the words. This approach seemed reasonable, but it also meant that the county magistrate had completely given up on those affected by the epidemic.

Following Amu, the group headed towards the Shuliang City magistrates office.

On the way, there were hardly any people to be seen.

Amu explained, To prevent the spread of the epidemic, the county magistrate has imposed a curfew. After sunset, almost everyone stays in their own homes.

Qin Feng nodded. It seemed that the county magistrate was not an incompetent person. At least, the methods to deal with the epidemic seemed reasonable.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt something unusual and used his special vision to look around.

At a glance, the dark green Yin Qi was extremely dense, far more than anywhere else.

Master Si. Qin Feng turned around, his face grim.

Generally speaking, a place with strong Yin Qi was likely due to the accumulation of a large number of dead bodies.

Perhaps the epidemic disaster in Shuliang City was even more serious than they had imagined.

Alright, here is my token. With it, you can move freely in Shuliang City. I will have someone take you to the place where the people are isolated. However, I want to make it clear in advance that if you are infected with the epidemic, in order to prevent the spread of the plague outside Shuliang City, I will certainly isolate you.

Wang Yis words seemed more like a threat than a reminder.

After Qin Feng and the others left, Wang Yi sat back in his chair, picked up a teacup from the nearby coffee table, his face dark as if it could drip water.

At this moment, in the silent hall, a figure wearing a ghost mask and dressed in a black and white robe suddenly appeared.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yi quickly stood up respectfully and said, Lord Qian Gui, youre here.

In the northernmost corner of Shuliang City, the streets had already been sealed off.

Fortunately, Wang Yi did not deceive Qin Feng and the others. Holding the token he gave them, they proceeded unimpeded.

The infected people are all isolated in these houses. The leading official pointed to a few dimly lit houses ahead, then retreated as if afraid.

Qin Feng took a deep breath. Even standing outside the wall, he could hear the painful moans of the people inside.

Turning to Miss Cang and the others, he said, The situation of this plague is not clear yet. I have Righteous Qi to protect myself, so the possibility of the epidemic affecting me is not great. But for safety, its better for you to stay outside.

Yes, yes! The official hastily agreed.

Si Zheng directly refused, How can I let you take the risk alone?

Zhang Tiannan and Cang Feilan remained silent, but their forward steps were enough to indicate everything.

Amu also said, I invited you all to come and solve the epidemic, so naturally, I will go with you.

Seeing everyone insist, Qin Feng no longer persuaded, In that case, after you go in, try to stay away from those people.

Entering the house, he could immediately see the people on the ground moaning in pain.

Upon seeing the situation, Qin Feng and the others had a sudden change in expression.

The symptoms of these people were even more horrifying than described by Amu in Jinyang City.

Their skin resembled charred flesh, presenting a black charcoal like appearance, with blood and flesh desiccated, almost reduced to skin and bones.

Despite their ghastly appearance, these people were still alive!

This plague was more severe than Qin Feng had originally thought!
