Ye Hu's letter was very short. It was originally included in Shen He's official letter to Fang Zhijing. In the letter, Ye Hu briefly explained the location of Orion Village and the situation of Qingxuan and Ye Mu.
At the end of the letter, Ye Hu wrote this: Recently I have been shocked to hear that the plague is rampant in Qingzhou, with victims everywhere, and it will be hard to sleep and eat day and night. I am really worried about my mother and wife at home, and I wish I could go back to my hometown to share the same danger with my family, life and death, but The king's order cannot be violated. As a general guarding the border, Ye Hu dare not leave his post without permission. He can only pray to the sky to drop the curtain in the hope that Qingzhou can escape the difficulties as soon as possible. At this time, I also hope that Mr. Fang can take more care of my mother and wife Qingxuan. Ye Hu Thank you very much!
A few words, so sincere, Qingxuan couldn't help but burst into tears. She knew very well that Ye Hu was a human being, and if she didn't care about him so much, how could she ask for help so easily
"Master Ye, Qingxuan is rude, please come in!" Seeing that he did have Ye Hu's letter, Qingxuan could no longer block him at the entrance of the village, and hurriedly invited Ye Qingyun and others into the medicine furnace.
Ye Mu was already awake at this time, and Xiao Wu was giving her medicine.
"Auntie, there is a letter from Ye Hu. I will read it to you." Qingxuan happily read Ye Hu's letter to his mother.
After listening to it on the first day of the new year, Mother Ye burst into tears. She knew that her end was approaching and her life was not long. She might not be able to wait for her son to see her for the last time. Before she died, she knew that her son missed her so much. How could she not help her? Heartbroken.
"Auntie, don't be sad, Qingxuan will always be with you!" Seeing Ye's mother like this, Qingxuan couldn't help but feel sad.
"Qingxuan, that gentleman is here to invite you into the city, right?" Mother Ye was weak and pointed at Ye Qingyun at the door and asked.
Upon hearing this, Qingxuan immediately glared at Xiao Wu who was standing next to him. Xiao Wu knew that he was speaking unintentionally, so he quickly lowered his head.
"Yes, old lady, I, Ye Qingyun, have been entrusted by Mr. Fang to ask Qingxuan Medical Immortal to come out and work together to develop a cure for this plague." Ye Qingyun saw Ye Mu pointing at him and hurriedly approached Ye Mu's bed. He moved forward, and then naturally placed his hand on Ye Mu's veins. After a long time, he looked at Qingxuan with a solemn expression.
Seeing how skilled he was, Qingxuan knew that he was also a medical student. Thinking of his friendship with Boyan, Qingxuan couldn't help but feel hopeful, so he moved to the courtyard with him to talk.
"What can you see, sir?" Qingxuan asked.
"The old lady is already terminally ill, and the medicine has no effect." Ye Qingyun sighed and then affirmed.
Although Qingxuan knew that his mother-in-law was seriously ill and would never recover, he still refused to accept the reality and still held on to a glimmer of hope. Now that he saw what he said with such certainty, he couldn't help but feel sad and couldn't help but shed a few lines of tears. .
"Junior sister, you have to show your condolences! The old lady is getting old. This is a natural law and cannot be forced!" Ye Qingyun comforted her, quite like the Taoist style of inaction.
"Sir, now you know why I can't go with you to the capital to make medicine. On the one hand, my medical skills are really shallow. On the other hand, my mother is in this situation and Ye Hu is not around. I can never leave her." Qingxuan explained.
"Junior sister, you have to believe in yourself. You are a child raised by your mother and the God of Medicine Boyan. When it comes to medical skills, who else in the world can be better than you. The old lady has already exhausted her skills, so you just let her go. She has lasted for so long, who else in this world can do it." It is rare for Ye Qingyun to be so serious.
"But how can I leave my mother-in-law in this situation?" Qingxuan said helplessly.
"Otherwise, we will take the old lady to the capital and find a few suitable servants to serve her in the official post. In this way, you can take care of the old lady and help make medicine together." Ye Qingyun suggested after thinking for a while.
"But Aniang, she has lived in Orion Village all her life, how could she agree to leave here at this time." Qingxuan shook his head.
"Leave it to me where the old lady is, and I will convince the old lady."
Ye Qingyun then said: "Junior sister, you may not know how serious the epidemic in Qingzhou is now. If the antidote is not available for a day, hundreds of people will die from the plague, and thousands of people will be infected, and so on. In less than half a year, Qingzhou will become a hell on earth, bringing disaster to all living beings in the world."
Qingxuan was slightly startled when she heard this. Lord Fang had mentioned such words last time, but she didn't pay attention at that time, thinking that Lord Fang was exaggerating. But now when she heard Ye Qingyun say it, she suddenly felt like she was actually there.
"Junior sister, look at this."
"What is this?" Qingxuan took the thick stack of things handed over by Ye Qingyun.
"Please read the memorials from various counties in Qingzhou!"
Qingxuan took it, then casually pulled out one and said silently.
"Quan'an County, Qingzhou, the county leader Feng Qing reported that he was sentenced to death. Since the beginning of the month, the number of infections in this county has continued to increase and has become out of control. The counties below are now littered with corpses and wailing, and the dead are lying next to each other. , the living are everywhere crying about profiting from the market, abandoning their homes and going bankrupt, and selling their wives and children, there are still some.”
"A report from Huangmei County in Qingzhou: Thirty-eight members of a family died, totaling more than 3,400 people, and an entire family was wiped out, totaling more than 800 households. Some parents died and their children fled. People are afraid of being infected, and beggars There is no way to eat, there is nothing to rest, and the ground is moved by weeping, it is really pitiful."
Qingxuan was shocked and turned pale. He quickly turned back the page and saw the tragic scenes in various places.
"Eighty or nine people in a household may die, six or seven may die, or three or four members may die on the same day, or the whole family may lie down with no one to support them. The infection will not stop and there will be many illnesses."
"How could it be, how could it be so serious? I thought it was just Mr. Fang who exaggerated." Qingxuan cried bitterly. He couldn't help but think of the tragic scenes in various places in his mind. His chest heaved violently, and he was in unbearable pain. I no longer dare to look at the memorial in my hand.
"These were all written three days ago, and I'm afraid it will be much worse now."
Ye Qingyun let out a long sigh, then suddenly straightened his clothes, with a solemn expression, facing Qingxuan with his hands crossed, raised above his head, and bowed: "Qingzhou Evidence Officer Ye Qingyun, on behalf of the entire people of Qingzhou, implores Qingxuan Medical Immortal to come out to make medicine. Save all peoples!”
"I sincerely ask Qingxuan Medical Immortal to come out and make medicine to save the people!" Dozens of followers saw that his family was already so generous and they did not dare to neglect. They all paid homage together, and their shouts continued to echo in the valley!
"Qingxuan, go with the adults, don't think about me. I know you are a filial child, but my body is now beyond recovery, so just let me spend the last time here! "I don't know when Aunt Ye has walked to the door tremblingly with Xiao Wu's support.
"No, Auntie, I promised Ye Hu to take good care of you, how can I leave you at this time!" Qingxuan couldn't help but hugged Auntie Ye and cried loudly.
"Go, child, Ah Hu fought bravely to kill the enemy at the border to save the people at the border. Now you can save the people in Qingzhou, but if you don't, Ah Hu will blame you. I understand my son. At this time, he will definitely I hope you go." After finishing speaking, Aunt Ye started coughing continuously, and her face was like gold foil for a moment.
"Aniang, Aniang!" Qingxuan shouted, and hurriedly helped Aunt Ye to lie down on the bed.
"Go, go, go..." Aunt Ye seemed to have exhausted all her strength, but still maintained the posture of pushing Qingxuan Wang outward, and kept muttering in her mouth.
"Sister Qing, please go, I will take good care of my aunt, don't worry!" Xiao Wu also started crying.
Qingxuan could only let out a long sigh. She had been with A Niang for so many years and knew very well A Niang's temper. Once a decision was made, there was no room for change. So she raised her head, pushed back all the tears in her eyes, and looked at the woman lying on the bed. After being extremely weak for a long time, Aniang finally nodded with difficulty towards Ye Qingyun!
