Seeing Mu Ci's worried look, Mei Rong felt sweet in her heart, but she also felt distressed. She hurriedly hugged him and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I know that plagues will break out in places where there are many dead people. If I fell into dirty water, how could I die?" Hug you without washing? So it must be fine."

Even if Mei Rong didn't care about herself, she still had to take care of Mu Ci's body. Even if Mu Ci was a little healthier now, her previous foundation was poor, and it couldn't be adjusted in a year or two.

In Mu Ci's two lifetimes combined, only in her last life was she not calm at the moment of the death of the God of War.Now is the second time, because I lost my judgment because I was not calm.

Mu Ci stretched out his arms to hug Mei Rong, smelling the faint smell of the sea on his body, and judging from the half-dryness of his clothes, he came to the conclusion: "Did you fall into the sea?"

"Well, there are many ships in the port. I couldn't wait for the boat to retreat and let me enter the port, so I took a small boat. When I was on the gangplank, I was not stable. I even fell into the water with the gangplank, and I simply swam ashore. There is a lot of sand on the shore. Dirty clothes."

Only then did Mu Ci heave a sigh of relief, feeling the coolness on Mei Rong's body, she quickly withdrew from his embrace, and helped him put on the dry clothes: "It's winter even if it's warm here, you don't know how to change into a set of dry clothes first, you're running around wet Such a long journey, you will suffer from the wind and cold."

"I'm not that delicate. When I was at sea, I was shirtless in winter and summer. It's fine." Mei Rong put on her clothes, and held Mu Ci in her arms again, "If you don't worry, come and help me warm .”

The two of them hugged each other, talked for a while, and kissed a couple of times. They didn't do anything, and they already felt very sweet and warm.

In fact, no matter how vigorous the love is, it will be the happiest if it eventually becomes such mutual companionship, care, and support, and the warmth can be experienced in some trivial things in daily life.

……

That night Mei Rong fell ill, coughing and having a fever.Le Jing gave him a careful diagnosis and treatment, ruled out the plague, and concluded that it was just "wind evil entering the body and causing internal disturbance", which was actually a cold.But Le Jing asked Mei Rong and Mu Ci to stay in the other courtyard and not to go out, so as not to be in poor health and easily contract the plague in Rizhao Prefecture.

Mu Ci was still late. Plague had already spread in many areas of Rizhao Prefecture. The main reason was that many people died in the war and the corpses were not collected in time.Some corpses were directly soaked in the water, and the villagers took water directly from the river for drinking, which inevitably caused a large outbreak of plague.

After Mei Rong left, the Zhongyi and Zhongjie armies also did some daily patrol work, and there were no medical staff to do epidemic prevention.The sanitation conditions in Rizhao are poor, and the people don't even have the concept of drinking cooked water. Even the Zhongyi and Zhongjie soldiers were infected. Fortunately, Le Jing discovered it early and isolated the medicine in time to avoid the further spread of the plague in the two armies.

Mu Ci didn't care about the village in Rizhao. In the spirit of humanitarianism, he couldn't do anything like allowing the plague to spread and kill the people in Rizhao. So he ordered Le Jing to organize people to spread the knowledge of epidemic prevention everywhere under the banner of great luck. They also distributed medicine for free, and gave free porridge to villages that could not afford to eat.Due to the shortage of manpower, healthy people were selected in each village to learn nursing, so as to fight the plague together and save their loved ones.

The move is also a win-win.To be honest, it is also human nature that "if you have milk, you are a mother". If you are hungry, you will starve to death, and few people will talk about loyalty.Rizhao is a slave system, and the people did not have a good life under the former nobles, and it is common to buy and sell them as objects.They obey whoever feeds them and clothes them warmly.Therefore, the good deeds of Daxing people who gave free medicine to save people and gave them porridge naturally won the loyalty of many people, which is more conducive to the stability of the region.

Because of the plague, Mei Rong couldn't go back, Mu Ci helped him ask for seven days' leave in the Sea God Army, and kept him by his side to take care of him.

It's rare to be able to get along, but Mei Rong is afraid of contracting Mu Ci and getting sick, so she doesn't want to get close to him. When they sleep together at night, they have to use a quilt to separate them, three feet away, with their backs facing each other.No matter how much Mu Ci persuaded him, it was useless, so he didn't force him.

On Mu Ci's side, the division of Rizhao Prefecture couldn't be completed in a day or two, and Mei Rong didn't lie down all day to recuperate, so she helped Mu Ci share some work.

Jin Yiwei outside was also busy.We tidied up this villa well, invited some healthy local farmers, dug up a lot of characteristic plants and planted them in the surrounding fields.

After Mu Ci finished his business, he and Mei Rong went to inspect together hand in hand, Jin Yiwei guarded beside him, but Mei Rong kept covering his mouth and coughing with a handkerchief, while Mu Ci stroked his back, walking and stopping with him.

Suddenly a farmer rushed over with a pot of leaves in his hand, and was stopped by Jin Yiwei.

Mei Rong coughed a few times, Mu Ci patted him while looking over there, Jin Yiwei hurriedly asked what happened.

People in Rizhao spoke with a strong accent, but they spoke in a very lucky way, a bit similar to the accent of Ling'an Mansion in Jiangzhou.After inquiry, I learned that most of the population in the Rizhao King City are people who escaped the war hundreds of years ago, drifted to the sea, and then settled and multiplied in Rizhao. They have the same roots as the Daxing people.

Jin Yiwei found a few soldiers who could understand Jiangling's dialect, and they only understood after guessing, and replied to Mu Ci: "Your Highness, this farmer said that what he has in his hand is the magic medicine of King Jishan, which can cure all diseases."

"Oh? Let him come over." Mu Ci said, stroking Mei Rong's back who was coughing.

The dark and bow-backed middle-aged farmer came over with a humble and flattering smile on his face, said a few words, and asked Jin Yiwei to translate: "He said, this is a magic medicine in his hand, and King Jishan only planted six of them." , the king does not have it, it is a magic medicine that is going to be offered to the Shenchao." Shenchao said it was a great fortune.

Jin Yiwei took the baby-like plant that the farmer was holding.

When Mu Ci saw it, she raised her eyebrows.

Mei Rong keenly noticed his abnormality, and asked: "What is this?"

This should be tobacco leaves, Mu Ci waved his hand at him, did not speak for a while, twisted a little leaf and rubbed it in his hands, it was a bit sticky, then stuck out his tongue to taste it, but was stopped by Mei Rong: "Will it be poisonous?" ?”

"Then why don't you try it?" Mu Ci asked.

Mei Rong opened her mouth without hesitation and stuck out her tongue, Mu Ci wiped a little juice on the tip of his tongue.

Mei Rong tasted it, and her facial features were all wrinkled together: "What ghost smell?"

Mu Ci laughed out loud.

The farmer talked to Jin Yiwei excitedly again. After hearing this, Jin Yiwei was a little puzzled, so he could only reply: "Your Highness, he said that this should be dried in the sun, chopped, kneaded into balls, and used with a bong. There is nothing wrong with it." gone."

Tobacco is just some refreshing effect. To say that magic medicine is too exaggerated, it is easy to be addicted to damage the body, is not a good thing.But it can't be killed with a stick.Mu Ci instructed Jin Yiwei: "Ask where it came from, plant it, and then wait for Le Jing to come back and ask him to study its medicinal value."

After shopping around, I found a new sweet potato seed. Mu Ci also ordered people to plant it well and then introduced it to the country, and then returned with Mei Rong who was still coughing.

Mei Rong washed her face and hands after returning home, and asked Mu Ci from a distance: "What is that thing?"

"It should be called tobacco. It is dried and cut into shreds, and then lit to inhale the smoke. It can have a refreshing and stimulating effect. It can relieve colds and coughs like yours. It also has other medicinal values." Mu Ci said.

Mei Rong looked sideways at Mu Ci and said, "But you don't seem to like it very much."

Mu Ci made two general points: "Tobacco is addictive, but the short-term pleasure has ruined many people. If you smoke for a long time, you will suffer from various diseases. Smoke can also poison pregnant women. In short, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages."

"Oh, that's really not a good thing." Mei Rong said, and then she stopped suddenly when twisting the towel—it must be the first time for Mu Ci to see tobacco, how did he know so clearly?Mei Rong thought again, Mu Ci has a prophetic wisdom about many things.But Mei Rong didn't ask, and continued to wring out the towel, put the towel on the shelf and moved it to the side, so as not to touch Mu Ci's towel and get sick.

Mu Ci didn't say anything, just dealt with business, and the day passed quickly.

At night, Mu Ci and Mei Rong had dinner and went out for a walk.

Mu Ci looked up at the sky full of stars, two crescent moons, and the third moon hidden in the dark sky, and suddenly said to Mei Rong: "Actually, I'm not from here." He had keen senses and a clear mind, Knowing that Mei Rong has doubts for a long time, with the unknown comes a sense of insecurity.

The relationship between the two of them reached this level, and Mu Ci had nothing to hide.

Mei Rong was stunned for a moment, then held Mu Ci's hand tightly: "I don't care about this, I just ask you, will you leave?"

Mu Ci was also taken aback, he didn't expect that Mei Rong's doubts were not about his background, but worried that he would leave, so he couldn't help laughing: "Shouldn't normal people be afraid?"

"What are you afraid of? People like me, shouldn't normal people hate, or even hate?" Mei Rong said, but Mu Ci never discriminated against him, and even fell in love with him.

Mu Ci smiled and shook her head, leaning her head on Mei Rong's shoulder: "How can you be so cute."

Mei Rong was reluctant, but still reached out and moved Mu Ci's face away: "I'm sick, keep a distance."

Mu Ci didn't act too emotionally, stood up straight, and said, "I won't leave, and there should be no way to leave. I came from another planet. I am a kind of advanced civilized intelligent life in the universe. I used a special method to transfer my soul Brought here, became the Ninth Prince, and immediately got out of the limbo. The hardships that the Ninth Prince suffered before are not what I have endured." Although he has memories.

Mei Rong turned her head around, comprehended a few words that she didn't understand, and then she was so happy that she hugged Mu Ci and circled around: "That's great, it would be great if it wasn't you..."

God knows how much he loves Mu Ci, and regrets that he was unable to rescue him from the cold palace.

Mu Ci hugged Mei Rong, and when he was happy enough, she put herself down.Looking at the lover who was further away, only helpless tenderness remained: "Aren't you even curious about where I come from?"

"Curiosity, just say what you want."

Mu Ci said: "The planet I was originally on was called Earth, and it should be far away from here." He pointed to the sky, "Actually, this sky is called the universe. It is boundless and very vast. The stars you see are far away from here." We are far away, and if we sail towards it at the fastest speed of a ship, we will not be able to get close to the nearest one in 1 years."

"It's really far away." Mei Rong also looked up.

Mu Ci pointed to the constellations that Mei Rong had told him: "The star map is also different. I will draw the earth's star map when I have a chance in the future. Moreover, there is only one moon on the earth, not three. The moon directly affects the tide of the sea. Every day There is only one ebb and flow, unlike here where there are two or three tides, and the ocean currents are very chaotic. So the achievements you can achieve are a thousand times more difficult than those on Earth... This is what I admire most about you."

Being affirmed by her lover, Mei Rong was very happy: "Well, is your country the same as here?"

"The traditional civilization of the country I live in is similar to that of Daxing, but the sea was banned in ancient times, which led to the country's backwardness, and the country was almost subjugated by the enemy's invasion. Fortunately, after defeating the enemy, it was aggressive and developed quickly, becoming the top three countries in the world. " Mu Ci said, he didn't talk about his contribution in China, the rise of a country cannot be achieved by one person, even if he did promote a lot.

"Then how did they go to sea?" Mei Rong was curious.

"The technology over there is 500 years ahead of that here." Mu Ci didn't say it was more than 1000 years, because according to Daxing's development, 500 years is more than enough to modernize.He continued, "Boats are all made of steel. The medium-sized boats are as big as fifty Fuchuan connected together. The largest boat is 400 meters long. It is powered by burning oil and can reach a speed of 300 kilometers per hour." An hour here is slightly longer than on Earth, so the numerical value of the speed increases accordingly.

Mei Rong, who has sailed on the sea for more than ten years, has grown her mouth and winked at Mu Ci: "In my lifetime, can I see that kind of ship?"

"I should be able to see the iron boat, but I don't know how fast it can go." Mu Ci was not sure, he didn't use all the knowledge he knew in his mind to interfere, fortunately, how fast the technological development in certain aspects was. It's not something he can accurately predict.He just controlled the general direction and created the soil and atmosphere suitable for development.

"I hope to see it." Mei Rong held Mu Ci, "You must watch it with me."

"it is good."

"Any other interesting things?" Mei Rong asked.

Mu Ci told him about some modern products, Mei Rong was so startled that he even forgot to cough.At the end, Mu Ci said: "Actually, just listen to these things, don't tell others, even if you encounter related technologies, don't tell them a certain possibility, let them try it themselves, even if they fail, take a detour, They are all necessary for growth. The future of this planet is not a copy of the future of the earth, it is a brand new intelligent civilization, and it should follow its own path."

This is why Mu Ci always just formulates reasonable rules and optimizes the development system, but never brings out the abundant ready-made technology in his mind—even if he can avoid detours and let the technology develop ahead of schedule.He also never allowed Wang Ziguang to go to "Su" or something easily. That guy reminded people to make movable type printing and make a telescope by himself.

It is not only a person's wisdom is limited.

What's more, an intelligent civilization should have its own characteristics and should not become the same product under human intervention. If it loses the process of natural competition and evolution, it will eventually lose the vitality of development.Just like a child who has been waiting for others to feed and grow up, he will eventually lose his independence and creativity.

Mei Rong couldn't understand so deeply, but he knew that what Mu Ci did was justified, so he nodded in response.

Deeper and heavier, the two went back to rest.

At dawn, Le Jing came back, and brought two unexpected people at the same time—the eldest prince Mu Qi, and the second prince Mu Yu.

The people had already arrived, and Mu Ci didn't feel very angry. She was only glad that they came with Le Jing and avoided the epidemic area, but she still told them to take a bath and thoroughly boil their clothes.

While eating breakfast, Mu Ci asked, "Why are you here? A plague is breaking out here."

Mu Qi was already 11 years old, and he said: "Uncle Wang, don't be angry, we didn't sneak out, we came here on the order of the father, the doctor, the medicine and a few officials who are good at internal affairs came to assist you."

Mu Yu still escaped as usual, looked at Mei Rong with a smile, and betrayed his father: "Actually, to put it bluntly, it was because the father was afraid that you would run off with Aunt Wang to the sea, so he asked us to come and watch you. "The brat smiled and blinked, and gave Mu Ci a knowing look, "However, if you 'forcibly' take us out to sea, we won't be able to say anything!"

Mu Ci: "..."

Mei Rong: "..."
