I just hope those people are already dead.

County Magistrate Liu thought that he had sent the clothes of people infected with the plague to the imperial envoy's residence very early on. So much time had passed that the people inside must have died.

Even if this female doctor had a prescription to save lives, those people had already been infected with the plague so early that they would have died long ago.

Finally, the herbs prepared outside the county town were given to Shen Rong.

Shen Rong didn't expect that after everything was ready, Fa Cai would actually want to go in with her.

"Brother Wang...you don't have to go in." Shen Rong refused.

Fa Cai was anxious when he saw Shen Rong refused. "Doctor Shen, my life was saved by a real person. Since I am with you today, I have the responsibility to protect you! What's more, I believe you can definitely cure the people in the city."

Shen Rong thought about it and finally did not refuse Wang Facai.

The two waited for nearly an hour, and the herbs and food were ready.

Shen Rong and Wang Facai reappeared in front of the door, with herbs and several bags of grain prepared by County Magistrate Liu behind them.

Shen Rong looked at the door in front of her that was gradually being pushed open, like the big mouth of a man-eating monster.

Shen Rong put on a veil and walked into the door resolutely.

As soon as she entered the door, Shen Rong was shocked by the scene inside.

All you can see are broken walls and ruins. Even the houses that were not washed away are covered with a thick layer of yellow mud.

Dead bodies were everywhere on the roadside, but Shen Rong didn't see any living people.

Everything in front of us seemed to tell the people who entered how terrible and cruel the previous flood was.

Behind him, Fa Cai was pushing a cart loaded with medicinal herbs and grains. When he saw the situation inside, he was not as surprised as Shen Rong, because he had seen how cruel things were after a flood.

The door behind him slammed and closed again.

Shen Rong glanced at the sky and said to Fa Cai, "Brother Wang, let's find a house to stay first!" After a pause, "Let's go to the county government office. There should be no one there at the moment."

Shen Rong thought that maybe Changsheng was over there, and if she went there now, she might be able to see Changsheng. Thinking of this, Shen Rong quickened her pace.

Fa Cai was originally a yamen runner in another county, so he naturally knew the situation in the county yamen.

According to the current situation in Jinhu County, the county government office is indeed better than other houses.

I can't take it out. I think that place is better than other places.

Fa Cai was pulling the cart in front, and Shen Rong followed behind pushing the cart in order to go faster.

With this pulling and pushing, the medicinal materials were actually pulled to the outside of the government office gate.

The government office was very quiet, as if no one was there.

Shen Rong said anxiously.

When the two of them entered the door and came to the backyard, Shen Rong didn't see a single person.

Shen Rong suddenly panicked.

"Brother Wang, let's split up and look for that person!" Shen Rong didn't wait for Fa Cai to answer and immediately ran into the backyard.

After looking around, there was really no one there.

Changsheng, where has Changsheng gone?

Shen Rong felt dizzy.

No, she couldn't fall! Changsheng hadn't been found yet.

She must find immortality!

Fa Cai shrugged his head and walked to Shen Rong. "Doctor Shen, who are you looking for? There is no one here."

"Okay, got it." Shen Rong turned around and went to the room where medicinal herbs were kept. She took some medicine and then took out some other herbs from the space while no one was around.

Shen Rong prepared the herbs and went straight to the kitchen, where she began to boil the medicine in the pot on the stove.

There was a well in the government office. Shen Rong was worried that the water in the well was not clean as the flood had just passed, so she did not draw water from outside and directly used the water in the space to boil the medicine.

Fa Cai was not idle either. Just cleaning the house exhausted all his energy.

These houses that were washed away by water were covered with mud and sand, and it took a lot of effort to clean them up.

By the time the medicine was ready, it was already afternoon, with only a ray of setting sun remaining in the sky.

Shen Rong put the prepared medicine in a small wooden barrel and asked Fa Cai to load it onto a cart. Then the two of them started distributing the medicine along the street.

Shen Rong came to the street corner with a gong in her hand and started to beat the gong.

The sound of the gong was abrupt and loud in this quiet city.

"Clang!"

"Take the medicine! It will cure your disease!"

"Come and take the medicine! It will cure your disease!"

As Shen Rong shouted, there was finally some movement in the house next to the street.

Many people with numb eyes slowly came to the cart.

Shen Rong glanced at these people and saw that the person she was looking for was not among them, so she hurriedly gave them medicine.

After giving those people the medicine, Shen Rong held the gong and Wang Facai pushed the cart, and the two continued to the next street.

Just like that, after all the medicines on the cart were distributed, it was completely dark.

"Doctor Shen, it's getting dark, let's go back!" Fa Cai reminded.

Shen Rong nodded woodenly, "Go back!"

Shen Rong returned to the backyard and came to an inconspicuous room.

This is the house that Fa Cai cleans up and lives in during the day.

After Shen Rong locked the door, she stepped into the space.

When Shen Rong came to the space, she did nothing else but drying herbs or collecting and planting herbs. In short, she was very busy.

This busy work would take up most of the day. Shen Rong thought that she would have to apply the medicine all over the city tomorrow, so she could only force herself to sleep.

Shen Rong applied the medicine in the city for three consecutive days.

During these three days, Shen Rong did not find Changsheng.

During these three days, some people's bodies have gradually recovered.

Upon seeing this, Shen Rong hurriedly called on the recovered people to find the bodies in the city and burn them.

As time passed, Shen Rong became more and more anxious.

Where did Changsheng and the others go?

Can’t find it?

Could it be that I have been infected with the plague... Already...

The more Shen Rong thought about it, the sadder she felt. Jinhu County was not a big place, and Shen Rong had basically found places where people could live.

But there is still no news of Changsheng.

Shen Rong did not give up and decided to look for it more carefully.

That day, Shen Rong finished boiling the medicine and waited for people to come and help carry the medicine out and administer it.

After Shen Rong finished her work, she decided to visit some places she had never been to when she had some free time.

Shen Rong was walking in the opposite direction of the government office.

Before she knew it, she had come to a ruin.

The ruins looked like a small temple, and there were some broken Buddha statues on the ground.

The houses in this area collapsed badly. Shen Rong thought that no one lived here, so she didn't send medicine here for the past three days.

This is her first time here.

Shen Rong carefully observed the situation in the dilapidated temple and walked around the ruins without knowing it.

Where is Changsheng going?

Is he still alive?

Shen Rong was walking and thinking, and just as she stepped out of the collapsed door, a faint cough came from under her feet.
