Chapter 185
The first family that Lu Xiaoyun visited was in Shiban Lane, north of the city. The houses here were even older than those of Old Man Ding’s house.
The yamen runner who led the way whispered to Lu Xiaoyun: "Miss Lu, the people living in Shiban Lane are very complicated, and there are all kinds of people from all walks of life. Shiban Lane is also the most unsafe place in Daze City. Even if you pass by here in broad daylight, you may be stolen or stole things."
"So poor?"
"Yes, the person you are talking about should be Li San."
"You're very familiar with the people who live here?"
"Hehe, the young man is making a living in the yamen, so why don't he know the people in Shiban Lane?"
"That's right, you look smart."
"If you don't say anything else, it's not a little boast. There's no gossip I don't know about in Daze City. Anyway, I know who has a crush on anyone..." Speaking of this, I probably think it's not appropriate to tell Lu Xiaoyun about these things. He quickly spoke, "Well, this little mouth always likes to talk nonsense, Miss Lu forgives the guilt. By the way, the house with light in front is the Li San family."
When Lu Xiaoyun heard this, he walked forward quickly, as if he hadn't cared about what the yamen runners had said.
The yamen runner breathed a sigh of relief, afraid that Lu Xiaoyun would make a mistake.
Lu Xiaoyun walked to Li San's house and heard someone in the low voice talking.
"My grandma, you'd better leave. My disease looks like smallpox. If you stay here, you will be dragged down by me."
"Third brother, I won't leave. If you hadn't saved me, I would have died long ago. No matter whether you are smallpox or something, I will stay by your side to take care of you."
"As you please, leave now, otherwise when the government knows that someone in Shiban Lane has a ceiling, they will seal the Shiban Lane and prevent entry and exit. Then you have to wait for death!"
"I don't understand why the world is so unfair. You are obviously a good person, why are you infected with smallpox? Third brother, think about it carefully, have you ever met someone who has smallpox? If this is the case, even if you die, you have to report this matter to the government, otherwise it will affect the entire Daze City!"
When Lu Xiaoyun heard this, he was a little surprised. This woman named Jinniang was a wise man.
If it were someone else, I would probably run away quickly so that people would not know that they had smallpox.
"I work every day, so where would I meet any patient? I think it was because God didn't want to ask me to work, which made me suffer from this disease. You are still fine now, and leave as soon as possible. If I can't die, I will go to you again. Don't worry, I will stay in the house and never go anywhere, and I will not harm others."
The yamen runner whispered: "This Jinniang is a brothel woman. She was ruined because she offended Enke. Li San saved her and took the money to redeem her. The two of them depended on each other for their lives. By the way, Li San specialized in moving things for people and exchanging their strength for money."
As the yamen runners spoke, Lu Xiaoyun had already pushed open the door of Li San's family and strode in.
Li San and Jin Niang were both startled by Lu Xiaoyun.
When Lu Xiaoyun saw that Li San's face had a lot of rashes, densely packed and very terrifying.
"Who are you?" Jinniang quickly calmed down and stared at Lu Xiaoyun, "Why did she break into my house in the middle of the night?"
"I am Lu Xiaoyun, I know why your man gets infected with smallpox." Lu Xiaoyun walked straight to the bed.
Jinniang was stunned and forgot to stop Lu Xiaoyun for a moment.
Lu Xiaoyun had already grabbed Li San's hand to take the pulse.
"Miss, are you afraid of your life? This disease will be transmitted to people!" Li San came to his senses and subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back. He didn't want to implicate the little girl in front of him.
Lu Xiaoyun frowned slightly, Yuan Kun did not lie, Li San really got smallpox!
After careful inquiry, Li San really didn't know where he was infected with this disease.
"You mean, are you the Miss Lu Xiaoyun who has pacified the plague in the deserted village?" Jinniang finally came to her senses and looked at Lu Xiaoyun in disbelief.
Lu Xiaoyun nodded: "It's me, don't worry. Although smallpox is deadly, I can cure it. But now I'm going to another place, you can wait at home first. Remember, don't meet people anymore, I will come to you again tomorrow."
"Is Miss Lu's words true?" Jin Niang, who was already desperate, saw the light of hope again, "Can Miss Lu really cure my third brother?"
"Yes. Smallpox is a strong infectious disease. Li San's smallpox is no longer his own business. If he is not careful, it will cause the people of the entire Daze City to suffer."
"Thank you Miss Lu."
Jinniang was filled with tears in her eyes and knelt down to Lu Xiaoyun and kowtowed to thank her.
Lu Xiaoyun quickly avoided it. Lu Xiaoyun accepted the incompetence of their actions of kneeling down at any time, but this was normal in their perception. Lu Xiaoyun would not make a big fuss to criticize such a wrong thing.
Not accepted but respected!
"Okay, you guys rest first. Don't move any things at home. I'm going to find out where the problem is."
"Okay, Miss Lu, everything will be followed by your arrangements. Third brother, did you hear it? Miss Lu has a way to save you, so I said, good people will be rewarded."
Li San held Jinniang's hand and thanked Lu Xiaoyun with gratitude, "Miss Lu, thank you."
"You're welcome, good people should be rewarded."
Lu Xiaoyun was sure that Li San had smallpox, so he was not so anxious.
Those remaining people, unless they have had smallpox or are lucky enough to have strong immunity, are most likely to be the same as Li San.
The yamen runners who came with Lu Xiaoyun knew that Li San had smallpox, so they stood far away.
Now that he left Li San's home, he also kept a distance from Lu Xiaoyun, for fear of being infected with smallpox.
Lu Xiaoyun knew, but he didn't say anything about the yamen runners.
After all, smallpox is indeed a serious illness that is terrifying in this era.
Lu Xiaoyun visited six households, only one family was not infected with smallpox, the remaining five households had smallpox, and one household had just held a funeral.
Moreover, this family didn't know that the old man died because of smallpox, which made Lu Xiaoyun even know how to scold people.
There are so many people coming to help with the funeral. Who knows if there are still people who have been infected with smallpox because they touched the deceased's clothes or other things?
"Tell me all the people who came to help you mourn. Otherwise, if the old man knew that so many people were sick because of his funeral, he would probably not be at peace in the nine springs." Lu Xiaoyun patiently said, "If smallpox spreads in Daze City, many people will die. You don't know that the old man has smallpox. I will plead for you in front of the prefect."
"Is it really not a crime?"
"No, I promise."
The family would tell the people who would be mourning soon. Lu Xiaoyun recorded it and handed the list to the yamen runners. He turned around and asked the prefect to block the places where these people lived first.
After walking through these families, Lu Xiaoyun found that the situation in Daze City was worse than he thought.
After she returned to the government office, she sent everyone out.
At this time, Yuan Kun could no longer withstand the toxicity. Although he was not as strong as that doctor, he was on the verge of being worse than death.
Lu Xiaoyun hypnotized him and learned about Yuan Kun's life.
