The boy's name is Qi Peng, and he is from Huai Village in Wei County. Wei County is far away in Tianxi. Ji Mo has never heard of this place before, and only knows that it should be a place far, far away, as far away as Qi Peng came here. On the way, his family members were all dead, and he himself went from seven years old to 13 years old. It took him six years to walk here with his feet.

"It's so far away, why..."

Ji Mo was shocked.

How does it feel to be on the run for six whole years?

Qi Peng seemed to want to smile at this senior brother Ji Mo, but the muscles on his face were very stiff, and the corners of his lips that were already as thin as a skeleton's face only looked terrifying.

"Many times, I wanted to stop, but it didn't take long before I had to keep going."

Seriously speaking, Qi Peng may be named "the most unlucky guy in history", at least among the people Ji Mo has met, it is extremely rare, not to mention unique, to be as unlucky as him.

In the early years, Qi Peng's village was not bad, at least his family, grandparents, parents and uncles, aunts and aunts, brothers and sisters, there were about thirty people, and no one dared to provoke them.

How many people could there be in ancient villages? In some small villages, 50 people are considered too many. The Qi family has multiplied and lived in the local area for many years. With such a population, if it continues to develop, it is impossible to say that one day it will be possible to change the family. The heirloom family has since become a prominent local family. At least, in that small village, the Qi family is considered a large family, with a house and land, and life is relatively easy.

Qi Peng is also a male, and his birth is a happy event for his baby. The future will not be glorious, and he will not become a lonely refugee like the one in front of him.

Who would have thought that a plague would suddenly break out?

At the very beginning, there was a bum in the village who had a fever and was dizzy. He usually didn’t care about eating and drinking. He also liked to do some sneaky things at night. He just thought he was catching a cold and caught the wind, so he didn’t care. He was still drinking and playing in the nearby city. I ran out of money and looked around again.

His family has long since disappeared, and few people around him cared about him, so no one found out about it. When they found out, it was the corpse of this bastard.

At that time, the villagers felt sorry for him and went there when he was young, and they just thought it was okay if he was not good. They pooled money to build a thin coffin for him, and the whole village worked together to bury him.

Up to this point, this incident is nothing more than ordinary. Who would have thought that people in the village would die one after another, so everyone felt that something was wrong. After further investigation, these people were actually the first to have had contact with that bum and drank together. Died, the one who helped restrain himself died, the one who had spoken did not hold on, and in the end, the one who had said hello also died.

One-third of the population went away at once, and the people in the village were panic-stricken. Those people died suddenly, and they didn't have time to call a doctor. Later, the village chief found that these people had signs of fever before. Everyone is not allowed to spread it.

In ancient times, the prevention and control of various infectious diseases was very rough. The simplest one is to block wherever they appear, and wait until the people inside are all dead, and set a torch to burn them all, and it will be clean up.

The reason why they waited for the people to die before setting the fire was because they were afraid that they would resist violently because of the fire, and if the fire broke out, it would be difficult for the outside defenses to guard against it, so they had to wait.

The reason why this practice has not changed for thousands of years is also simple and effective!

The ancients did not see any microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, nor did they think about airborne transmission, saliva transmission, etc., but isolated and open fires, very few pathogenic bacteria can continue to survive at the temperature of the flames. If it is clean, it will naturally not get sick.

Seeing that no one gets the disease anymore, it is natural to think that the disease has been eradicated and cured.

Such an effective and low-cost approach, why not use it?

As for the people who died in it, either they were unlucky, or they deserved it. Who made them offend the God of Plague?

It is also right to use their lives to make atonement to the God of Plague.

To those who do not understand the principles of getting sick and curing a disease, these two things are very mysterious in themselves. How can a person suddenly get sick when he is eating and drinking normally?Is there a problem with eating or drinking? Why don’t others get sick with the same food and drink?

Conversely, why can people get better gradually when those medicinal materials are consumed by burning them into ashes or taking them orally?

From the very beginning, these methods seemed to be very mysterious, and it was difficult to explain to outsiders the medicinal properties of herbs. When it comes to medicinal properties, even Ji Mo had to think more about it. It is also grass, why does it grow on What’s here is masculine, but what’s there is feminine?

Oh, they have different varieties, but do different varieties have different attributes?Those with the same attributes are not the same kind of grass!

Things that even beginners may not be able to understand, those ordinary people who have never learned the relevant knowledge are even more difficult to understand the mystery. Therefore, the simple and effective method of burning with fire is excellent.

What is wrong is that this sterilization method is really effective.

The result can be imagined.

The village chief was afraid that it was a plague, so he didn't dare let people know about it. He was afraid that the court would close the village immediately after hearing the news, and then let them wait to die inside. He would go to the city to find a doctor to come to the village to have a look, and he was thinking about how to deceive the doctor, don't Let the other party see through that the plague is not coming, so that the people in the village have no way out.

Unexpectedly, when he finally arrived at a nearby city, he discovered that the source of the plague turned out to be the city. The city had been sealed off and guarded by officers and soldiers outside. Anyone who dared to come out of the city would be shot and killed. The corpses will also be burned.

This is the real dead body!

The village chief fell ill from fright, and came back to deliver the news, and he died not long after.

At this time, all those who had some thoughts in their hearts, thinking that this might be a plague, did not dare to stay here anymore. Who knows how many viruses the plague god has thrown here, they have to leave quickly, just leave here as soon as possible.

All those who felt unwell were thrown away, and some were reluctant to throw them away, and did not dare to kill others, including their own lives, so they left them crying regardless of whether the other party was infected with the plague or not.

Those who were alive, those who had no symptoms, and those who thought they were still healthy left one after another, and soon, the people in a village fell apart.

The Qi family walked together as a whole family. When they left, the youngest child had already died. On the way, the old man found himself sick and left their team quietly. He didn't know where to wait for his death, and then...

The scope of the plague is very large, and several nearby cities have been sealed off. They can’t enter, and they dare not enter. If they want to enter other villages, some villages are not as good as them. They are already dying of illness, and some villages are already on guard. Do not let outsiders in.

Those who tried to force their way into the village were killed. One of Qi Peng's uncles, who had a hot temper, died like this.

They had no food to eat at that time, and his uncle just wanted to stutter for the children. Unexpectedly, he was killed by the other party outside the village before he went in.

The blood and human life scared the Qi family who didn't realize how serious the situation was at the time.

One of Qi Peng's younger sisters fell ill because of this, and when her forehead became hot, the family couldn't help panicking, and refused to take her away, leaving her on the road.

They were unable to distinguish whether the disease was a common frightened fever or a harbinger of the plague, so they treated it as the plague.

Qi Peng was not very old, he didn't want to give up his sister, but he didn't dare to disobey the adults, and he didn't dare to leave the team of their family, so he could only follow.

"Later, I thought, maybe she didn't have the disease. At that time, we had been out for a long time, it was impossible..."

It is so pathetic to have no medical knowledge at all. If you can't tell the difference, you can only follow the worst expectation. Otherwise, everyone will be infected, and then they will all die.

In the first two years, in Qi Peng's memory, it was a process of constant downsizing. At the beginning, they would admit to others where they came from, and when they found out that they would not be taken in, they learned to lie, saying that they were ordinary refugees and lost their land. , There are too many taxes, and they come out because they can't survive. Unfortunately, there are too many family members, and they can't unify their caliber. After the lies are seen through, some people are beaten to death.

How long did the great plague last and how many places were affected? Qi Peng didn't know. He only knew that there was no stable life at that time. He went to a place, as if he was about to leave soon. And always hungry.

Then he was left alone, like a beggar, who seemed to be less noticed, but maybe it was really bad luck. Whenever he wanted to stay in a place, something would always happen and scare him. escape.

Among them, the most absurd thing that Ji Mo heard was that Qi Peng ran away as if a passerby passed out when he saw a passerby passing by him.

Beggars can be regarded as the bottom of the society. Qi Peng sees such an identity as the "evil" of human nature and the "ugliness" of the world. A small wound can make people bleed, skin ulcers, and fever And death, in Qi Peng's view, was terrifying enough.

It was so terrifying that he didn't dare to stay in such a place, even the city or village where the dead man was, he didn't dare to stay.

He must have been frightened by the first plague.

Qi Peng, who was still a child, was like a frightened bird. He was always on the run. I don’t know how long it took. He finally grew up and calmed down. When he wanted to look at this matter rationally, it was time for him to settle down for a short time. Yes, the people in that family know some simple medicinal herbs. They are the herb growers raised by a certain big family. The little knowledge of medicinal materials that Qi Peng knows now is all learned from that family.

Their family was also Qi Peng's savior. They rescued Qi Peng who was in a coma, gave him food, a place to live, and work for him.

If nothing changes, maybe Qi Peng will be a drug farmer in the future.

However, the family died, bleeding from the seven orifices, and died of poisoning.

Qi Peng, who was lucky enough not to drink the pot of chicken soup, found that he almost died too. He didn't dare to stay any longer, and ran away. Later, he came to this city and knelt down in front of Ji's Medical Center to beg to be an apprentice.

Before that, he had not dared to eat for two days, fearing that he would also be poisoned to death.
