But looking at the anxious look of the young man in front of him, could it be that those patients have not been treated
"Arrived, right here."
The young man pointed at Gu Hua inside the ruined temple and followed his finger. As expected, there were a lot of people inside the ruined temple. They all looked sick. They must have been infected. .
"Why don't you tell me what this is all about first, so that I can judge whether anyone has been able to make the people here suffer from this disease in recent times."
After all, it still makes people care a lot.
"A part of the army was stationed here some time ago, but I don't know if this disease is related to that army, and I don't know where that army came from, but those people seem to be quite honest."
"So the symptoms started after coming here from the army?"
"The time is not too different, but I'm not sure if it has something to do with them, but the army seems to have been living not far outside the city and I haven't heard any news from them."
"That's easy. I have a way to cure these people, but after I prescribe the medicine, how are you going to get these medicinal materials?"
The man who delivered medicine on the street just now told himself that pharmacies nowadays do not sell medicine to local people, which means that it is very likely that someone is trying to cover up the outbreak of the disease, so he You will think of ways to prevent pharmacies from selling medicines, or all the people who go to buy medicines will be locked up here.
"If there is no other way, I have no choice but to steal it. The people in the drugstore will sell the medicine to me at first, but then they don't want to. Maybe they know that I buy the medicine for the people in the temple. .”
"Okay then, I'll give you the prescription. The problem with the medicinal materials can be solved after tonight, then the two of us can solve it."
Gu Huai'an was at least the Minister of Rites. If it was really the local magistrate who behaved and behaved like this, he must get rid of this official. Otherwise, his job as an official would be in vain.
After the meeting, we briefly determined that the people here are just getting more and more serious because the disease has been delayed for too long. In fact, it is the same as the various conditions outside and even in the army. , there is no big problem, but if you want to get this medicinal material, you must at least meet the local officials.
After a lot of work, Gu Huaian had no real solution. He could only use the silver needles he carried to temporarily relieve their symptoms. But in fact, it was only treating the symptoms and not the root cause. If there were no medicinal materials, everything would be useless. In vain.
"So you've been taking care of them here? You probably don't live here either."
Gu Huaian could clearly see that the person in front of him had a Jianghu aura, so he must be passing by this place or looking for someone, right
"I knew you were a smart man. When we were on the road just now, I felt like you had been observing something."
"Then you came earlier than me, so you should know what the situation is here, right?"
"What other situation could there be? It's nothing more than deceiving the superiors and the inferiors, trying to cover up all the things here so that the court won't blame them. It's nothing more than the actions of some officials who are afraid of losing their reputation. It’s just some inhumane things.”
This young man seemed to know the situation here very well, but he was unwilling to say anything more. Gu Huaian became more and more interested. Could it be that the local officials here couldn't even afford to offend this person in the world
"Since this matter has something to do with the local magistrate, why don't we go to the county government office to have a look. We might not be there, and the officials will handle the matter here properly."
After hearing this, the young man felt a little disdainful, "If I didn't say that you are someone who only knows how to read, you have no idea how dark this officialdom is and how many people are plotting against those around you. You Don’t you think this situation is tacitly approved by the local magistrate?”
This matter is easy to say and difficult to say. At the very least, it seems that the local officials here are not only inactive, but also suspected of neglecting human lives, so Gu Huaian cannot let this matter go so easily. Son.
"Don't you really want to go with me? I think this might be a good opportunity to see the real situation here. I'm really just a nerd who can only read, but we should trust the court."
When Gu Huaian said this, he actually didn't believe it anymore, but he really wanted to see what kind of local official could do such a thing.
The young man felt that Gu Huaian was like a helpless person, so he followed Gu Huaian to see the specific situation no matter what. The two of them beat the drum in front of the county government office and put on a show of beating. It seemed like they were complaining about injustice, but the entire county government office was quiet, as if there was no one at all.
"Let me just say, the people here don't care about the people outside. As long as they are safe, it will be fine."
The young man was a little disappointed and turned his head to look at Gu Huaian beside him, "By the way, my name is Yan Chuan. I haven't asked you what your name is yet?"
"Gu Huaian."
Gu Huaian just replied casually and then turned his attention to the ivory door. He always felt that this matter was not that simple. On the surface, everything in this place seemed in order. There could not be someone supporting him behind. But why is this thread tooth so quiet
Gu Huaian was still a little unwilling to give up, so he picked up the drumstick and banged it twice, and then slowly walked out of the two government officials. However, looking at the two of them, he didn't seem to think that there would really be anyone who could complain. things.
"You're screaming in broad daylight. Why are you knocking here and there? I didn't pay attention to you just now. Don't you know there's no one inside?"
"If there is no one, who are you two?"
Gu Huaian's speaking attitude was not good, which aroused the energy of the two government officials in front of him, "Hey, you brat, do you know how to speak? Do you believe I will arrest you?"
Gu Huaian, on the other hand, was not anxious at all. He looked at the two of them and said, "If you two have the ability to cut off ten heads, you can give it a try."
"Call your officials here to come out. I have something to ask."
If you hadn't walked into the county government office between the two government officials, you must know what happened today, otherwise, things here will not end.
When the young man saw Gu Huai'an swaggering in, he thought he was out of his mind, but after thinking about it, he felt that the man in front of him looked really impressive.
He simply followed Gu Huaian to protect him.
"What are you doing? You are making a lot of noise outside. Don't you know that I am taking a rest?"
Sure enough, there was someone inside, but they just didn't want to come forward. Gu Huaian made a lot of noise when he entered, so the officials here got up.
When the county magistrate saw someone breaking in from outside, he naturally looked at the two government officials with a lot of reluctance on his face, "Is it so difficult for you to guard a door inside on weekdays? I already said that no outsiders are allowed to enter. , why did you let people in anyway?"
"If idlers and others are not allowed to enter, I would like to know what the county government office is for?"
Gu Huaian's attitude obviously made the people in front of him not dare to do anything without permission, because the person who could say such words so confidently here was probably not someone they could afford to offend, unless he was a lunatic.
"Who are you? If nothing happens, don't make trouble here."
Gu Huai'an was suddenly glad that he came out this time by proctoring the imperial examination. He was carrying the token issued by Shen Zhongbai and the token on his body, which were enough to prove his identity.
"Who I am depends on whether you can read or not. Take a good look at who I am."
Gu Huaian took out the tokens from his arms. In order to prevent the people in front of him from disowning them, he deliberately took out two tokens, which were enough to prove his identity as the Minister of Rites.
After the county magistrate saw the token, he was frightened and almost knelt down on the spot in front of the person in front of him.
"Sir, how come you are here? There is nothing worthy of your visit in our small place."
"I was originally ordered by the emperor to go to the Jiangnan area to supervise the imperial examination, but I didn't expect that when I passed by this place, I found that the local county magistrate had no laws and disregarded human life. You said that in such a situation, as an official of the imperial court, it is Shouldn’t it be handled properly?”
When Gu Huaian said this, he still felt a little guilty, because logically speaking, it was not his turn to take care of this matter. It was just that the official level could suppress the people in front of him, no matter what he was in front of. People have to be polite to themselves and don't dare to do anything else.
But in the final analysis, this matter is actually out of his control.
"My lord, if you say this, you are going to disgrace me. How can I dare to disregard human life? Aren't the people in this city all well?"
"Yes, you send people to watch on the streets. As long as someone goes to the pharmacy to buy medicine, they will be arrested and locked up in a ruined temple. Naturally, there will be no patients on the streets."
"this… "
"I know how to solve the disease in the city, but I don't have any medicinal materials in hand right now. You should immediately order all hospitals and pharmacies to open their doors. I want to requisition all the medicinal materials here."
Gu Huaian was afraid that he would be discouraged, so he simply arranged everything in one go.
