I Just Won’t Play by the Book
Chapter 301: The emperor arrives?
After ten days, Jiang Beiran finally flew back to the territory of Shengguo. Feeling the pleasure of flying out of a thousand meters without system options, Jiang Beiran felt that his breathing became more relaxed.
‘Sure enough, this is for me. ’
Feeling the breath of freedom, Jiang Beiran slowly flew towards Guixinzong, and when he flew over the head of Lulin County, Jiang Beiran suddenly frowned, because he found that there were a large number of refugees gathered in the lower part of the city. They were not only ragged, but also Everyone was lifeless.
'plague? ’
Jiang Beiran, who had seen this scene many times, drove the clouds to the ground.
Before going down the clouds, Jiang Beiran said to Lin Yuyan: "You go back by yourself first."
Then, without waiting for Lin Yuyan's response, Jiang Beiran directed Xiangyun to fly into the air again, and continued to fly towards Guixinzong.
"Guard! Please wake up, please don't let me in, let my daughter go in! My daughter is only two years old! Only two years old!"
"Grant! I kowtow to you! Please let me in! You can survive this hundred miles, so please wake up and save us!"
"Mother! Mother! Wake up, mother, wake up, we will be able to go in immediately, mother!!!"
...
Walking among the refugee groups, Jiang Beiran, listening to heart-piercing shouts, was checking their symptoms.
‘It’s indeed a plague, but it’s not a common plague. ’
I have seen a lot of various plagues, but it is really the first time I have seen such a wicked one, because the general plagues refer to those mandatory infectious diseases, in the final analysis, they are still pathogenic.
However, these people not only have symptoms that can be explained scientifically, such as coughing up blood, high fever, and skin bruises, but also have a very metaphysical black qi.
‘Could it be the aftermath of the previous miasma? ’
After checking the symptoms of the refugees, Jiang Beiran raised his head towards the closed town of Heyi.
Heyi Town is the northernmost town in Lulin County, and there are quite a few people going from north to south.
Although the guards on the front of the city closed the gates tightly, they did not violently drive out the refugees, and even threw some food out of the town.
It can be seen that the parents here are not ruthlessly disregarding these refugees, but there is really no way.
"The emperor is here!"
Just when Jiang Beiran was thinking about where to find the source of the plague, he suddenly heard a loud shout from the spy.
"What the hell? Am I here? ’
Of course Jiang Beiran knew that the voice was not calling him, so he immediately poked his head out of curiosity to see which emperor was driving.
The refugees also heard this yelling. They saw their eyes gleaming as if they had seen a savior, and they struggled to get up from the ground and rush towards the emperor's guard of honor.
‘Puff... it turned out to be her! ? ’
Looking at Mu Yao, who was wearing an imperial robe, Jiang Beiran was immediately stunned.
It is not that it is strange that Mu Yao can ascend to the throne, because if Jiang Beiran is allowed to choose the new emperor, she will definitely be chosen.
It's just that Shengguo has the rule that only ordinary people can be emperor. Although this rule was broken by him, it only broke a little. After all, he was a training waste material who had stagnated in the Qi training realm for five years.
But Mu Yao's talent in cultivation is absolutely excellent, which is considered to completely break the rule that only ordinary people can be emperor.
Secondly, Mu Yao is Yin Jianghong's daughter, Guan Shian...No, Tai Yingzong would actually agree to this matter.
"It's really weird..."
"Retreat!" Seeing the victims rushing towards the sage, the guards in the back row immediately slammed their bows and arrows, while the guards in the front row speared long spears to form a circular formation to protect the emperor inside.
Seeing Han Guanglin's long-handled weapons, the refugees immediately slowed down, and some of them knelt down and kowtow desperately.
"Emperor, please help us! Help us!"
"All retreat, who made you use force."
Following Mu Yao's yelling, the guards immediately turned and knelt down towards Mu Yao: "Your subordinates are reckless, please come down."
At this moment, Kong Qianqian, who was standing next to Mu Yao, immediately jumped out and waved his hand and reprimanded: "I don't have any eyesight, don't hesitate to step back."
"Yes!" The guards agreed and immediately withdrew the circle formation.
Looking at the refugees who still dare not go forward and are still kowtow, Mu Yao took the initiative to walk into the refugee group and said: "Please rest assured, the court will do its best to heal you, please don't give up hope."
"His Majesty!!!"
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
"Your Majesty is as good as the previous one, as in the rumors!"
...
The refugees were so touched by Mu Yao's inspiring words, all of them were tears in their eyes, and some even broke their heads.
"The emperor! Save my daughter! Please save my daughter."
At this time, an almost unclothed mother knelt in front of Mu Yao and shouted, holding a young child.
"Okay, let me have a look."
Mu Yao said that she checked the little girl with profound knowledge, and then reached out and touched the little girl's forehead.
‘This lifelessness is getting harder and harder. "
Feeling the unexplained death in the little girl's body, Mu Yao frowned deeply.
Slowly injecting a profound energy into the little girl's body, Mu Yao made the little girl who was dying a bit angry.
"Mother... I'm hungry."
Hearing the way her daughter opened her eyes, the woman cried out with a "wow", murmured incessantly: "Thank you, the emperor, thank you, the emperor!"
Although Mu Yao knew that this was just a cure for the symptoms and not the root cause, the profound energy that she entered could only help her through it for a while. If she really wanted to save her, she had to find a cure for this plague.
‘If it were him...what would he do. ’
Just as more and more refugees around were vying to ask the emperor to save herself, Mu Yao suddenly widened her eyes when she felt weak.
"you!?"
Among the refugees who were kneeling, a figure she knew was looking at her with a smile.
Before Mu Yao shouted something, Jiang Beiran made a silent gesture to Mu Yao, and motioned her to go to the side to chat.
Although Mu Yao's thoughts were extremely confused for a while, she first greeted a few disciples from the sect to convey profound energy to the refugees, and encouraged the refugees for a few words before walking in the direction indicated by Jiang Beiran.
As the emperor's close servant, seeing Mu Yao suddenly leave, Kong Qianqian of course also chased him immediately.
Coming to a small slope, Mu Yao saw the person he was thinking of at a glance.
Mu Yao, who was very excited for a while, had many things to ask, but only one sentence remained.
"Huh, you still know how to come back."
As soon as Mu Yao finished speaking, she saw Kong Qianqian who had just followed him shouting.
"The emperor!? The emperor!!!"
With a face full of surprise and joy, Kong Qianqian rushed towards Jiang Beiran, but Jiang Beiran dodged easily.
Seeing Kong Qianqian who was rushing to the air, Jiang Beiran smiled and said, "Don't shout, I am not the emperor now."
"Yes." Kong Qianqian quickly covered her mouth, then looked at Mu Yao and said, "The emperor, do you call the wrong person to get the board?"
Shaking her head dumbfoundedly, Mu Yao said, "You didn't call it wrong, what's the punishment." After saying that, she looked at Jiang Beiran and said: "My big father said, as long as you come back, the position of the emperor is still yours, I I just helped you to be an emperor out of helplessness. I don't like being an emperor!"
Seeing that he was right, Kong Qianqian immediately ran to Jiang Beiran and shouted: "The emperor, where have you been missing for so long!? Everyone in Fengzhou is looking for you."
"I encountered something tricky and I was trapped." Jiang Beiran looked at Mu Yao and asked: "Mind you tell me what happened in the past year or so? For example, this strange plague."
"Cough!" Mu Yao coughed lightly, "This is a long story, but don't worry, everything is under my control."
After hearing this, Kong Qianqian blinked his eyes twice and looked at Mu Yao: "The emperor...oh no, sister, haven't you been so sad and can't sleep for the past few days? Why suddenly...Oh! It hurts, it hurts. !"
Before Kong Qianqian could finish speaking, Mu Yao had grabbed her by the back of her neck and threw her behind her.
Looking at the familiar farce, Jiang Beiran suddenly smiled, a feeling of going home spontaneously arises.
After cleaning up Kong Qianqian, Mu Yao looked at Jiang Beiran and said: "It's just a little trouble, I can handle it, but since you are back now, I will give it to you."
"Okay, but before talking about the plague, can you tell me that there have been no major incidents in Sheng Country in the past year?"
An hour later, Jiang Beiran nodded and smiled: "You, the emperor, did a good job. Maybe you can consider continuing to be."
Counting from Jiang Beiran to Qi Country, there are probably so few major events that happened in Sheng Country.
One is that the cultivators went to various counties and towns to set up large formations to prevent the miasma, and at the same time made new defensive arrangements for alien races that might strike again.
Second, he suddenly disappeared as the emperor, which was anxious to ruin the high-level officials of the two factions, and even the two big men in Lanzhou were alarmed.
As the saying goes, the country cannot be ruled for a day. Although Yin Jianghong doesn't think Jiang Beiran will encounter any disaster that will hurt his life, the court still needs someone to talk about.
After a while of discussion, Mu Yao was pushed up. Once she learned a lot from Jiang Beiran, she also mastered the ability to review memorials. It was no problem to temporarily replace her.
Secondly, Zhengmo Liangdao is now considered a honeymoon period, and Tai Yingzong does not think Jiang Beiran will really be gone forever, so he agreed to this proposal.
The third thing is that the vigorous development of Lulin County has had a very gratifying effect. This is especially true for Mu Yao, who likes micro-service private visits like Jiang Beiran, and almost all the people on the street are filled with happiness. Mu Yao's smile made Mu Yao feel very unreal.
Because her dream was to build such a country, but she knew it could only be a dream.
But now someone is realizing this dream for her, and it has begun to take shape.
Seeing magical buildings rising from the ground, Mu Yao wanted to open Jiang Beiran's head more than once to see what was inside.
If the report ends here, it is enough to be regarded as a year of Guotai Min'an. Shengguo, which has experienced several storms, has finally ushered in the cultivation period and is growing vigorously.
However, just last month, a terrible plague swept across Fengzhou.
Not only does it have an extremely high fatality rate like other plagues, but the most frightening thing is that it can even be contagious to practitioners.
Many sect disciples died young after being entangled by this plague, and even the high-level members of the sect could not be saved.
For this kind of plague that even the lives of cultivators can be deprived of, the cultivators in Fengzhou suddenly became panic.
Soon, wave after wave of proposals were put forward.
Some people think that under special circumstances, iron-and-blood methods must be used to gather all the sick people, and if the fire is reduced, the source will naturally be eliminated.
Judging from Mu Yao's description, many people at the meeting agreed to this proposal, and it was Mu Yao who stopped this proposal in the end.
Her reason is simple. The spread of the plague this time is too fast. Almost half of Fengzhou has been involved. According to rough statistics, 50% of the people have been infected with this plague. If all of them are burned out, then Feng The state will be greatly injured.
The quickest and most effective method was rejected, and the high-level staff of Zhengmo could only think of another countermeasure.
Some think that the source should be found first and are thinking of a solution. Some think that a team of pharmacists should be organized to speed up the research on the methods of this plague, and some think that they can try to fight poison with poison.
In the end, these methods have been adopted, but they have little effect.
Although many people have speculated that this plague was related to the previous miasma ~lightnovelpub.net~, they could not find the source.
The pharmacist team is formed, but they have never heard of such a plague that can be transmitted to cultivators, and so far they have not come up with an effective treatment plan.
As for the use of poison to fight poison, it is more like a nonsense that has been stranded.
"The plague that even cultivators can kill, those people didn't die immediately after getting it?" Jiang Beiran asked after hearing Mu Yao's description.
"Yes." Mu Yao nodded, "I am also very surprised about this. Although this plague has a high fatality rate, it lasts for a long time. Whether it is a civilian or a cultivator, it has been tortured for a long time. Died later."
After listening to Jiang Beiran and thinking for a while, he felt that if the plague was man-made, it would be extremely vicious and he wanted to put Shengguo to death.
If a plague has a very high fatality rate and a rapid onset, the result of the evolution is that a city becomes a dead city overnight, but anyway, the plague is over.
But this time the plague has a high fatality rate and slow onset. It is simply a weapon to destroy the country, because the slower the onset, the more infections will be, and it will eventually spread to all counties.
‘Fengzhou is really down with blood mold, how come you encounter these evil things. ’
With emotion in his heart, Jiang Beiran replied as if thinking of something: "I just heard those people say that Lulin County seems okay?"
"Yes!" Mu Yao nodded immediately, "While Fengzhou was almost completely paralyzed, Lulin County quickly contained the infection. Now it can be said that it is the only piece of pure land in Fengzhou."
"Hmm..." Jiang Beiran nodded, as if thinking of something.
