Liaozhai Great Sage

Following his order, ghosts and ghost soldiers dared to come one after another soon.

They didn't have to wait for their companions to gather, they each picked a bag of dates and left quickly after receiving Li Xiuyuan's request, and went to various places to sow seeds.

Strange to say, the dates on the three jujube trees can't be picked no matter what.

As much as you take off, you will grow as much as you want, and there is no possibility of shortage at all.

"It's a good thing, apprentice, you didn't eat these three green dates, otherwise, even if you have fairy seeds, you wouldn't be able to bear so many fruits." The blind man said humanely.

"Why?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

The blind Taoist smiled and said, "The immortal energy of the jujube is all in the flesh. If you eat it, how can there be so much immortal energy to bear fruit?"

Li Xiuyuan pondered, recalling the scene at that time, when he was invited to sit by the God of Martial God, three fairy dates were placed in front of his eyes, and he wanted to eat them when he smelled them, constantly tempting himself, but because he was concerned about the plague situation, so After drinking a glass of wine, I didn't have time to eat.

After all, the Xianjia fruit is in front of you, and it is beneficial to eat, so how can you not be tempted.

But who would have thought that this green date was used to cure the plague.

Now that everything is connected in series, Li Xiuyuan can't help secretly feeling that it's very dangerous.

As long as I had a little selfish desire before and ate green dates, I am afraid that the epidemic will not be completely resolved.

Chapter 229 Thanksgiving

In Guobei City, although there is a lifeless look in the past few days.

But today, this city once again exploded with vigorous vitality.

On the streets in various parts of the city, huge iron pots were set up. The hot water in the iron pots was boiling, and someone nearby kept throwing handfuls of green jujube leaves into the iron pots.

The boiled soup was distributed to the plague-stricken people one by one.

The common people have been tortured by the plague for the past few days, their bodies are weak, their faces are sick, and their bodies are covered with pustules. Fortunately, the plague did not last long. In order to spread it, and at night Li Xiuyuan ruled out the Yin soldiers, the ghosts planted jujube trees everywhere, and told the prescription to cure the plague in a dream.

Now the epidemic everywhere has been quickly brought under control.

Li Xiuyuan, a few friends and the guards were walking on the street, looking at the people queuing up to receive the soup, the tense nerves in their hearts finally relaxed.

This time, the scourge was finally completely subsided.

"Brother Li, it's thanks to you this time. If you hadn't found the cure for the plague in time, the people in the whole city might not be spared this time." Wang Ping, a fellow scholar, said.

"It's not just the people in the whole city. Who knows how many places and how far the plague has spread this time. Even the imperial court has given up on disaster relief and rescue people, leaving the people in this area to fend for themselves."

Zhu Yu on the side shook his head helplessly and said, "I have read the books of sages and sages, but the imperial court is so fatuous and incompetent, I really don't know what is the use of what I have learned in this body?"

"You can't say that. It is because there are too many stupid officials in the imperial court that we want to gain fame and benefit the people." Ning Caichen said solemnly.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "This world has become bad. Some people can hide from the world, and some can not do anything, but we can't. Since we were born in this era and embarked on the road of imperial examinations to become officials, we have the responsibility to change this world. Don't you think so?" Do you also want to drift with the tide and do nothing for the rest of your life? A man should do something and not do something while he is alive, so he should not sigh and give up on himself. This is what a woman does, not a man.”

"Mr. Li's words are justified." The scholar who was walking next to him shouted.

"Yes, the world has become bad, and we have the responsibility to change it. The situation in this city is the best testimony. If you didn't work together, how could the people survive today?"

"Brother Li, based on these words, no matter where or when Brother Li is in the future, he is worth following. We can be missing in this world, but Brother Li is indispensable."

The other scholars were young, enthusiastic and vigorous, and were infected by Li Xiuyuan's words.

Li Xiuyuan smiled: "There is still a long way to go, so we should encourage you together."

His way does require a group of like-minded people to walk together.

Right now Zhu Yu, Wang Ping, Ning Caichen and other scholars gathered together by chance due to various things. This is the kindred spirit that God gave him. With them, Li Xiuyuan felt that he was not alone.

After walking around the city, seeing that everything was improving, Li Xiuyuan felt relieved.

The rest of the work can be handed over to the subordinates, let Zhu Yu, Wang Ping and the others take care of it, and then he can retire.

The major issues have been resolved, so I can't let myself worry about the remaining minor issues.

Returning to the mansion with the guards, they saw that there were all kinds of food piled up in front of the mansion.

Another basket of eggs, several fresh chickens and ducks, some fruits and vegetables, some ready-made steamed buns, steamed stuffed buns, and even some mountain products such as bacon and mushrooms.

Lu Bo is calling several guards in the mansion to move these things in.

"What's going on, why are there so many gifts piled up at the door?" Li Xiuyuan strode over and asked curiously.

Lu Bo gave a salute: "Young master, these things were sent by the people in the city. They thought of the young master's rescue and rescue of people, and quelled the plague. They were grateful, so they specially sent these gifts to repay the young master. For the grace of life, the old slaves have cleared a batch before, this is the second batch."

Not finished yet.

Then there was a woman who led her child to the courtyard wall of the Li Mansion, put down a basket of steamed buns, knelt down with the child, kowtowed a few times to the Li Mansion, and left in a hurry.

"The people in the city have suffered disasters and plagues, and they are not rich. Although these things are the people's wishes, they are too much a burden for the people now. It is enough to have this kind of intention, but they can't ask for things. "Li Xiuyuan said.

Lu Bo said: "The old slave said it, but he couldn't stop it. I think it's just the beginning and there will be more in a few days."

Li Xiuyuan pondered and said: "Then accept it, hold a banquet later, and invite the people in the city to have a meal. By the way, let's distribute the previous twelve taels of monthly money. After the catastrophe is over, there will be more places that need money, so the people have to let it go." I have some spare money in my hands."

"The old slave has written it down." Lu Bo said.

"Wu Fei, the batch of money in Wangchuan Mountain hasn't been used yet." Li Xiuyuan asked suddenly.

Wu Fei came out and said, "Young Master, you mean the 9 taels of silver that were transported to Wangchuan Mountain last time. Yes, the taels of silver were not used up."

"Go to Wangchuan Mountain, bring the silver here, and go now." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Yes, young master."

Wu Fei responded, and immediately prepared a fast horse, and left quickly.

After ordering some more things to go down, Li Xiuyuan finally relaxed.

It is said to be leisure, but it is not leisure.

In the past few days, Li Xiuyuan had to check the situation in the city every day. Seeing that the epidemic disease in the city was being cured rapidly, he felt more and more relaxed. A scholar, drinking party several times.

If it was before, he definitely didn't have this mood.

But there are also many things to do in the aftermath.

Within a few days, Wu Fei arrived with money.

And the epidemic of the common people has also improved a lot.

Li Xiuyuan then informed all the people in the audience that all the short-term workers hired by the Li family during the disaster relief period can come to the front of Li's house to receive their monthly money.
