Several people looked at each other, then shook their heads: "We didn't know either. We went to the mountains last night, and symptoms started to appear on the way down, and then they became serious."
Someone answered like this, but they didn't dare to look at Zhuzhu. It was obvious that they were not telling the truth.
Zhuzhu suddenly became angry: "I am saving you now, and I am also saving the whole village. If you don't tell me, everyone will die. Are you going to become the sinners who kill the whole village?"
She was so loud that she scared a few people to death.
The few of them looked at each other again, hesitated for a long time, and then said: "We...we met a few corpses in the mountains. We were wondering if there was anything good in them, so we searched them, but found nothing, and even hurt ourselves. Got sick..."
Now that I think about it, I regret it. If they had not been greedy for money and had not taken care of the corpse, they would not have become like this and harmed the villagers.
Zhuzhu immediately grasped the key point and continued to ask: "What do those corpses look like, what kind of clothes are they wearing, and are their hair long or short?"
Seeing that Zhuzhu didn't get angry again, several people became more courageous and tried to remember:
"They're all men, with short hair."
"The clothes he is wearing are strange. They don't look like those from our country, but they are all white robes."
"It looks like he has been dead for several days and has body spots on his body."
"They seemed to be in pain and their expressions were ferocious."
One person and one sentence finally described the situation of those people.
Zhuzhu had basically determined who those people were, nodded and said, "Okay, just lie down peacefully. Someone will deliver it to you when the antidote is developed. Don't go out and cause trouble."
As she was about to leave, those people hurriedly called her: "Girl!"
Zhuzhu turned around and the others said sheepishly: "Can you give us something to eat? We have been hungry for two or three days..."
Zhuzhu was a little speechless. She thought of the villagers' comments about them. They were all lazy gangsters in the village. They usually didn't work hard, but now they knew they were anxious.
She still had some snacks she bought while shopping, but she hadn't eaten much of them. Now she took them out and was very reluctant to part with them, but she had no choice but to give them to them and left amidst the voices of many people expressing their gratitude.
After returning home, Zhuzhu truthfully told Jiang Jiuniang and Ruo Zheng the news she had found. As soon as she told them, Jiang Jiuniang knew what was going on.
The corpses on the mountain must be people from the Experimental Bureau. Originally, nothing would happen as long as they returned on time, but Jiang Jiuniang blew up the time machine. They could not go back, and they could not stay in this time and space forever, so they all died.
The reason why there are viruses is that after staying in that era for a long time, toxins accumulate in the body and dealing with zombies every day. It is not a big problem for the virus to break out after death.
These corpses would be fine if they were in the end of the world, because humans in that world have evolved a lot and will not be affected. However, humans in this era are still very fragile and extremely easy to be infected, which leads to these things happening.
Once you understand these reasons, things will become much simpler.
"Zhuzhu, follow what those people said and go to the mountains to burn the body to prevent secondary infection."
Jiang Jiuniang lowered her head and continued her experiment, not even looking at Zhuzhu when she spoke.
Zhuzhu didn't care either. On the contrary, knowing that she could help made her feel at ease. She was finally more than just a loser.
When the emperor knew about this, the Lu family had already arranged everything. He felt relieved and immediately ordered everyone to follow Lu Baichuan's instructions and make sure to get through the plague safely.
After all, this is the capital of the country. Once things get serious, it will affect the entire court. Dongting and the island country will definitely be in trouble. Nantai and Xiteng also have their own agendas, and they will be attacked from both sides.
"Thankfully this happened to Mrs. Lu, otherwise it would not have been so easy."
As he spoke, he exhaled a heavy breath, his back was covered with cold sweat, and he felt better now.
Some people just couldn't see his kindness. When they saw that the emperor didn't blame the Lu family at all for what they had done on their own, they suddenly said in a strange way: "General Lu and his wife are really following their heart more and more in doing things. They don't even ask the emperor." Doesn’t it mean that you don’t take the emperor seriously at all?”
Hearing this, the emperor immediately stared at the source of the voice. That person was a recently promoted eunuch. He had been in the palace for many years and had some connections and means. The emperor saw that he had performed well over the years and so he summoned the emperor to serve him. Unexpectedly, He was so sinister when he opened his mouth.
In the past, the emperor would have thought too much about this, but now, he only felt that he was blind to promote such a person.
But the man still had the courage to continue lighting the fire: "Don't be surprised, Your Majesty. This servant is just complaining about the Emperor. General Lu's approach of killing first and then reporting later is really wrong. Although he has solved the matter, the Emperor still wants to find an opportunity to strike." One or two, lest someone climbs on top of your head."
His tone was very humble and flattering, and he lowered his head without even daring to look at the emperor's face, as if he was really forced to speak out bravely.
The emperor snorted coldly: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Hearing this, the eunuch hurriedly knelt down and apologized: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have no other intentions. This is all for your Majesty's benefit!"
"Oh, is it for my own good?"
The emperor snorted coldly and almost squeezed out the words through his teeth: "People who are really good to me are placing patients outside the city gate and doing practical things to help me relieve my worries. People like you are eating the inside and outside and not doing anything practical at all. Those who only talk shit and sow discord dare to say that it is for my own good!"
"Come here, drag this rip-off thing out to do hard labor outside the city gate, and ask Mrs. Lu not to give him medicine. I want to see how much practical work he can do for me!"
The emperor gave a direct order and did not allow the man to beg for mercy. He had his mouth blocked and dragged away.
After that, he warned other eunuchs and maids in the palace: "If anyone dares to slander General Lu and his wife again in the future, they will all be executed!"
Everyone immediately knelt on the ground, saying they didn't dare, but actually they had thousands of thoughts in their hearts.
These people were in the palace, but many of them were bribed by officials from outside to deliver news to the outside world. When the emperor's words spread, it was not known how big of a commotion it would cause.
But at this time, no one said anything. Keep your eyes on your nose and your heart. Saving your life is the most important thing.
Lu Baichuan and Jiang Jiuniang were busy and had no idea that there was something going on in the palace. They didn't receive the news until the eunuch was brought to him.
Looking at the plump eunuch, Jiang Jiu Niang was very disgusted: "What can you do if you are so fat? Go, go, don't delay my aunt's work."
The eunuch now knew that he was afraid, so he knelt in front of Jiang Jiuniang and said, "Please give me medicine, madam!"
