Hundreds of miles away from Chang 'an, countless refugees, whether they were suffering from smalllessness or not, had been surrounded by armed soldiers.
They were all gathered in a huge mountain valley, surrounded by fully armed troops. Anyone who tried to resist would be killed on the spot.
More than 30,000 people were gathered here. There were only simple tents and a group of people squeezed together.
Even if they were not sick, they had to squeeze together with the sick. Unless the smalllessness was completely eliminated, these people would not be able to leave.
"The heavens want us dead!"
"Your Majesty, is Your Majesty giving up on us?”
"It's over. Just wait for death. We're all going to wait for death here.”
All the refugees were in despair. Some of them wanted to resist, but in the end, they were killed.
Although the imperial court's method was cruel, it was the only way now. In ancient times, medical facilities were limited. Smallflower was a demon, a terminal illness!
They had no way to prevent or detect it, so they could only treat everyone equally. Those who had come into contact with small-flower patients before had to be isolated.
In the valley, there were mournful cries.
Li Wudi and the others stood on a mountain peak and looked at the tragic scene below. They all had sorrowful expressions and clenched their fists tightly. Li Wudi's face was covered with tears as he thought of his parents who had died of small-flower.
Sun Simiao sighed and said," Children, that's how it is. It can't be killed or run away!"”
"Last year, there was an outbreak of smalllessness in Long Nan, and a total of 20,000 people died.”
"Two years ago, there was an outbreak of smalllessness in the Huainan area. A dozen villages were almost turned into ghost towns, and less than one out of ten thousand people survived.”
"Five years ago."
Sun Simiao's voice was like a yellow oriole crying for blood. Everyone present was moved. No one had thought that the flower would be so terrifying.
One had to know that there were only about ten million people in the country now. If so many people died every year because of smalllessness, how bad would it be?
"Priest Sun, I've brought him here!"
At this moment, a clear voice sounded. Everyone quickly turned their heads and saw a general wearing black armor and a silk scarf around his face walking out of the infected area. Behind him was a man in tattered clothes with pus all over his body.
The moment they saw the man, all the soldiers present took a step back as if they had seen a ferocious beast. This was a patient with smalllessness. If they came into contact with him, their lives would be in danger!
Sun Simiao's eyes lit up, and he quickly brought Li Wudi and the others to welcome him. He sized up the man and nodded in satisfaction. Then, he said to the black-armored general,"General Li, thank you for your hard work!"
Li Junxian hurriedly waved his hand."Priest Sun, is the method you mentioned useful? Can that cowacne really prevent smalllessness?”
Sun Simiao's expression was solemn." I'm only 80% sure. Medicine and medicine complement each other. Theoretically, the method should be feasible. As for the specific effect, I still have to do experiments!”
Li Junxian's heart began to pound violently. This was the old Immortal known as the King Pharmacist. If he could say that he was eighty percent confident, then he was at least ninety percent confident!
Li Junxian's breathing gradually grew heavy. Could it be that the plague that had plagued the world for thousands of years was about to be resolved today?
