Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 773 Yellow Turban Army?

  Although there are many diseases that can cause symptoms such as fatigue in the human body, if a rash on the forehead and cheeks occurs at the same time, it can be presumed to be smallpox.

   After all, the reason why smallpox is so named is because the rash appears on the patient's face in large numbers, so the rash will turn into pockmarks after the patient is lucky enough to recover.

Of course, this is also the first time Liu Xing has seen a smallpox patient, because with the development of the times, smallpox has been basically eliminated decades ago, and it is also the first infectious disease to be eliminated by human beings, so after studying medicine, Liu Xing For smallpox, I only heard its name, but never saw its body.

Although Liu Xing doesn't know much about smallpox, he also knows that smallpox, as one of the most terrifying infectious diseases in human history, has a severe fatality rate of about 25%, especially in those with backward health and medical conditions. In ancient times, as long as one person got sick, the whole village could not escape the disaster.

That is to say, if the old man of the royal family got smallpox this time, then the entire Taoyuan Village may cease to exist, because Taoyuan Village is originally a relatively closed environment, and the transmission of smallpox virus is mainly through droplet transmission and Direct contact transmission, the infection efficiency of these two transmission methods in a closed environment is very high.

   Therefore, Liu Xing knew that he had already had smallpox in all likelihood.

   Because people who have not been vaccinated against smallpox have a very high chance of contracting the smallpox virus.

As for where the smallpox of the royal family came from, Liu Xing can definitely be brought by Zhang Jingxu and the others, because only outsiders like Zhang Jingxu came to Taoyuan Village during this time, so it is only possible that Zhang Jingxu was able to bring the smallpox virus to Taoyuan. the village.

   After all, Taoyuan Village has not had a smallpox outbreak for so many years.

By the way, the reason why the colonists from Spain and other countries were able to gain a firm foothold in the New World in a short period of time was because those colonists brought the smallpox virus from the Old World to the New World, causing the Aztecs in the New World to be relatively powerful. The Inca civilization suffered a huge blow, and millions of people died because of the smallpox virus, so the battered Native Americans surrendered to the colonists so easily.

Back to the topic, Liu Xing can now be sure that if the mythical creature behind the old royal family does not take action, the entire Taoyuan Village will definitely suffer a devastating blow because of smallpox, because there is no exact and effective treatment for smallpox in modern times. Vaccines can be used to prevent.

   So in this Taoyuan Village where smallpox is about to break out, everyone's life and death can only be determined by their own destiny.

   But this is also the best chance for Zhang Jingxu to escape.

   Liu Xing returned to his seat, and gestured Zhang Jingxu and others to pay attention to the rash on the old face of the royal family with his eyes, but it may be that Zhang Jingxu and others did not have a deep understanding of smallpox, so they did not pay attention to Liu Xing's suggestion.

   It seems that only after the smallpox in Taoyuan Village completely broke out, Zhang Jingxu and others could realize the seriousness of all this.

  Because the old royal family was unwell, today's banquet ended early, so Liu Xing went home.

   On the way home, I don't know if it was because of psychological effects, Liu Xing suddenly felt that he also had some weakness in his limbs, his head was hot, and there was some discomfort on his face.

   After returning home, Liu Xing did not forget to take a look at Liu's mother, and found that Liu's mother is quite normal now.

   Liu Xing carefully calculated the time. If Zhang Jingxu and others brought the smallpox virus in when they first entered Taoyuan Village, then the smallpox virus with an incubation period of about 12 days would indeed occur in these two days.

time is limited.

   Although Liu Xing had already guessed that the smallpox virus was about to break out in Taoyuan Village, because at this time "Liu Xing" did not know the existence of smallpox at all, Liu Xing had no way to tell all this to others.

So at this time, the only people who can realize the seriousness of the problem are Zhang Jingxu who brought the smallpox virus, because the smallpox virus can survive outside the human body for a few months to more than a year, which means Zhang Jingxu The others have seen smallpox patients during this time, so Zhang Jingxu and others should be able to see that the royal family has smallpox.

But having said that, if Zhang Jingxu also got smallpox, then the problem would be a little bigger, because the smallpox virus will break out quickly after the incubation period, and various serious complications will occur within two or three days. will put people to death.

This means that once the virus on Zhang Jingxu's body enters the outbreak period, the seriously ill Zhang Jingxu is likely to lose his ability to move. Nine times out of ten, he will be thrown into Taoyuan Village by "Ding Kun" and "Zhang Wenbing" to die. And "Yin En" has no reason to help Zhang Jingxu leave, because people in this era regard smallpox as a flood.

   As for Liu Xing himself, there is no reason to help a "Zhang Jingxu" who has only met a few times and is already in danger.

   I hope Zhang Jingxu can realize the problem in advance.

   Liu Xing sighed and went back to the room to sleep.

   After Liu's mother fell asleep, Liu Xing left the house, and this time Liu Xing did not hide next to his house, but hid directly in a field not far from the pond.

   After an unknown time, those with long bamboo poles reappeared near the pond, and Liu Xing also noticed that these people wrapped their heads in yellow cloth.

   Yellow Turbans? !

   Liu Xing frowned, and the figure of the Lord in Yellow appeared in his mind.

   In the context of the Cthulhu mythology, many players believe that Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, is actually the incarnation of the King of Yellow Clothes.

   As for the signature feature of the Yellow Turbans, that is the yellow cloth wrapped around their heads.

   But wasn't Taoyuan Village already established in the Qin Dynasty?

   Could it be that these people entered Taoyuan Village at the end of the Han Dynasty?

   Liu Xing recalled carefully and found that according to the elders of the clan, the last batch of immigrants in Taoyuan Village should have entered during the handover of Qin and Han Dynasties.

   What the **** is going on here?

   Are the clan elders lying?

Zhang Jiao's uprising was in AD 184, and "Jin Taiyuan" was from 376 to 396 AD, so the middle point of "Jin Taiyuanzhong" was 386 AD, and the difference between the two was 200 years. two years.

Because the average life expectancy of the ancients was very low, even in Taoyuan Village, which escaped the war, the average life expectancy was about 30 years old. Therefore, two hundred and two years were enough for the villagers of Taoyuan Village to renew six or seven times. In addition, everything in Taoyuan Village is in the hands of the clan elders, so even if Taoyuan Village was really established by the survivors of the Yellow Turban Army, as long as the clan elders insist on their own words, then the current Taoyuan villagers will believe it. He is actually a descendant of the Qin Dynasty.

Of course, Liu Xing also understands that the clan elders would do this. After all, the Yellow Turbans are rebels. If the Han Dynasty still exists and Taoyuan Village is discovered, then Taoyuan Village is likely to suffer a disaster. .

   But back to the topic, if the first generation of villagers in Taoyuan Village were really the Yellow Turbans, then Liu Xing felt that he seemed to know why Taoyuan Village was built in a dreamland.

  Obviously, it was Taoyuan Village that the King of Yellow Clothes asked the Yellow Turbans to build in the Dreamland.

   So, Liu Xing felt that he was very destined with the King of Yellow Clothes, how could every character card be related to the King of Yellow Clothes. . .

   At this moment, a person carrying a big cloth bag walked to the pond and threw the big cloth bag into the pond without hesitation.

   Liu Xing, who was hiding not far away, could hear a cry for help coming from the big cloth pocket.

   It was exactly what I thought.

   At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly heard the sound of "clicking, clicking" coming from the pond, and it sounded as if some mechanism at the bottom of the pond had been opened.

   No wonder he and his group didn't notice anything unusual about the pond during the day. It turned out that there was a mechanism in that pond.

  Unfortunately, Liu Xing doesn't dare to appear at will now, because Liu Xing knows that if he is discovered by those "Yellow Turbans", then he may have to go to the pond for a walk.

   So Liu Xing hid in the field honestly, not even daring to come out.

   Fortunately, these "Yellow Turbans" didn't work for long, and soon dispersed.

   After Liu Xing made sure that the "Yellow Turbans" were gone, he quietly came to the pond, and the pond at this time had returned to its original state.

   Liu Xing tried to find an organ near the pond, but kp Aier didn't even give Liu Xing the chance to judge. This shows that this organ is not something that Liu Xing can find, or that the key to opening this organ is in the hands of others.

   Liu Xing is more inclined to the latter.

   After Liu Xing returned home, he couldn't sleep for a long time, because Liu Xing had already been confused by the plot of this mod.

Judging from the current situation, although Taoyuan Village was established in name by immigrants from the Qin Dynasty, in fact it should have been built by a group of descendants of the Yellow Turbans, but this is actually not important, because this only makes Taoyuan The backer of the village has been directly promoted from a certain mythical creature race to the king in yellow.

The next step is the development of the plot of this module. If there is no accident, it should be the old man of the royal family who ordered "Yin En" to find some suitable people from outside to enter Taoyuan Village. As a result, "Yin En" found "Zhang Jingxu". "Ding Kun" and "Zhang Wenbing" pretended to follow "Zhang Jingxu" into Taoyuan Village for revenge.

As a result, when the royal family was planning "Zhang Jingxu", they didn't expect "Zhang Jingxu" and others to bring in the smallpox virus that was not available in Taoyuan Village. As a result, the entire Taoyuan Village was infected by the smallpox virus, and the meeting will be held in the past two days. A complete outbreak, when the entire Taoyuan Village is likely to be out of ten.

   But there is a question here, that is, will the king in yellow take action to solve the smallpox virus?

Liu Xing recalled his experience of communicating with the King in Yellow Clothes, and found that the King in Yellow Clothes only cares about his subordinates that he values ​​(Watanabe Meteor), and he doesn't care about those who are irrelevant (Bayaki). Lendl of the family).

   Obviously, these villagers in Taoyuan Village should be a group of insignificant subordinates to the King in Yellow Clothes, and even the King in Yellow Clothes should have forgotten them.

   After all, a group of ordinary humans who can only farm, for the King in Yellow Clothes, there is no use value at all.

   Liu Xing thought of this and found kp Aier to apply for a sleep package, because Liu Xing already knew what to do.

   The next morning, Liu Xing got up early, and after breakfast, he came to the intersection and began to observe the situation of the villagers.

   As a result, I don’t know if I don’t see it, but I’m startled when I see it.

  Liu Xing found that nearly 80% of Taoyuan villagers had symptoms similar to those of Wang Clan Lao, and even some villagers had obvious rashes on their faces, and they looked very tired.

   It seems that tomorrow at the latest, there will be an unprecedented smallpox outbreak in Taoyuan Village.

   But for Liu Xing, this day is enough.

   There is only one thing Liu Xing has to do now, and that is to make Zhang Jingxu realize that Taoyuan Village is not a paradise before the smallpox epidemic in Taoyuan Village begins.

After waiting for more than two hours, Liu Xing finally saw the figures of Zhang Jingxu and others - it still looked like Zhang Jingxu and Yin En were walking in front, while Ding Kun and Zhang Wenbing were following behind, blocking them with long sleeves. dagger in hand.

   After meeting with Zhang Jingxu and others, Liu Xing said, "Can you guys come over to chat with me first?"

  Ding Kun frowned, and said suspiciously: "Have you gone to complain to the clan elders and want to take us into a trap?"

Liu Xing hurriedly shook his head and said seriously, "No, no, no, I definitely didn't tell the elders that the two elder brothers were holding Zhang Jingxu hostage, but I went to monitor the pond yesterday, and there were two very important discoveries. "

  Although "Ding Kun" and "Zhang Wenbing" are enemies of "Zhang Jingxu", the goal of Ding Kun and Zhang Wenbing in this mod is to let Zhang Jingxu pass the mod, so of course they won't embarrass Liu Xing at this time.

  So, Liu Xing took Zhang Jingxu and others to a secluded corner and told everything he saw last night.

   "What, the head wrapped in yellow cloth? Are these people the Yellow Turbans?" Zhang Jingxu said with a frown.

  Ding Kun shook his head and said, "How could this possibly be the Yellow Turban Army? That was more than two hundred years ago. Besides, our Wuling side is not the main activity location of the Yellow Turban Army."

   Although the Yellow Turban Army swept the entire Han Dynasty, the main force of the Yellow Turban Army was still concentrated in the Yellow River Basin.

   At this moment, Yin En suddenly said, "Brothers, I don't know if you have found a problem, that is, the villagers in Taoyuan Village seem to be sick."

   Liu Xing saw that Yin En mentioned this matter, and immediately echoed: "Yes, when I was waiting for you, I found that many people are like the old royal family, with dense acne on their faces."

   After being silent for a while, Zhang Jingxu suddenly said in surprise, "It's smallpox!"
