153, goodbye Prince Charming
"Plague?" Gu Qianxue was surprised.
Gu Qianxue's reaction made the other people in the room startled. They all talked about the plague and their expressions changed. Why was Gu Qianxue so happy when she heard about the plague
"Yes, Miss Gu, who is this?" Pan's mother was puzzled.
Gu Qianxue became interested, "Pan Xiaopeng, quickly take me to the plague area in the south of the city."
Pan Xiaopeng turned pale with shock, "This is not possible. This plague is so fierce that it even alarmed the emperor. Even the imperial doctor was invited yesterday, but the plague could not be stopped. I heard that the last resort is to wipe out all the sick people. Get out of the capital."
When Pan's mother heard this, she lowered her head and wiped her tears.
"Everyone is cleared out of the city?" Yulian and Yucui were also taken aback, "Should we clear all the refugees out of the city, or clear the sick people from the capital?"
"Including the people in the capital," Pan Xiaopeng said.
Being cleared out is tantamount to letting these sick people wait to die outside the city. Even if a doctor is sent to treat him, it will not be a famous doctor such as an imperial doctor.
It sounds cruel, but it is the last move to protect the order of the capital. If nothing else is done, the disease will spread throughout the capital, and the problem will become serious.
"Since this is the case, you have to take me there even more, Pan Xiaopeng, let's leave immediately." Gu Qianxue ordered.
But Pan Xiaopeng knelt down, "No, I really can't take Ms. Gu with you. If the young master knows that Ms. Gu got sick because of you, it would be terrible." Then he added, "Even if it wasn't because of the young Lord, even a small one can't put Miss Gu in danger."
Gu Qianxue said with a smile, "Do you think that if you don't lead Miss Ben, I will have nothing to do? With a great reward, there must be brave men. If Miss Ben contributes ten taels of silver, someone will lead the way."
Pan Xiaopeng cried, "Miss Gu, why are you doing this?"
"There is indeed a risk of getting sick in this business, how about this, you stay and take care of Auntie, and I will take Yulian and Yucui to go." Saying that, she turned around and left.
Yulian and Yucui agreed without any hesitation, and followed Gu Qianxue out.
Pan's mother turned pale with shock, and Pan Xiaopeng also hurried to block the door of the room, "Miss Gu, it's really not that the little one is afraid of death, it's that the little one doesn't want you to go!"
Gu Qianxue raised her eyebrows, "No one in this world can stop me."
In the end, Pan Xiaopeng sighed, "Forget it, since Ms. Gu insists on going, the younger one must lead the way. The younger one's life is worthless. I just hope that Ms. Gu will not be infected with the plague."
Gu Qianxue chuckled, and reached out to pat Pan Xiaopeng's shoulder, "Don't worry, I can save your mother, and I can naturally protect my health."
Pan Xiaopeng bid farewell to Pan's mother, and Pan's mother also told her, "Miss Gu, you must pay attention. If you find that you have a headache, don't hold back and come back quickly."
"Okay, don't worry." Gu Qianxue said relaxedly.
Yulian and Yucui have never been afraid of getting sick, as long as they follow their young lady, they will go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of fire.
One-half of the entire capital is the living area where common people live, and it takes an hour to travel by horse-drawn carriage from Pan Xiaopeng's home to the south gate of the capital, where the epidemic is severe.
In just one cup of tea, going from a non-plague area to a plague area is like going from heaven to hell.
When she was about to enter the plague area, Gu Qianxue ordered the carriage to stop and jumped down by herself, "You guys, wait here."
Yulian, Yucui and Pan Xiaopeng were taken aback, "Miss, what are you going to do?"
Gu Qianxue smiled, "The meaning is very clear. I will enter the plague area by myself, and I will do things alone. I can't let you take risks."
Yulian and Yucui naturally refused, "No, let's go wherever Miss is going!"
Pan Xiaopeng also said, "Miss Gu, if my mother finds out, I'll let you go in by yourself and beat me up."
Gu Qianxue's complexion changed, her expression was no longer as easy-going and comfortable as usual, but majestic in her indifference, she stretched out her hand and pointed at the big rock in front of her. "Anyone of you who can break it open with bare hands can follow me."
The three of them were dumbfounded. Who could smash such a big rock with bare hands? The hands are meat and not iron!
Seeing the unbelievable expressions on the faces of the three of them, Gu Qianxue smiled, took two steps, gathered internal strength at the dantian, then held her breath, and swung her palm at the big stone.
There was only a loud noise, and the stone with a diameter of one foot cracked open.
The three of them were shocked, let alone Pan Xiaopeng, even Yulian and Yucui, they didn't know that their master knew martial arts.
Cleave the boulder with one palm, but Gu Qianxue looked calm, "Because of my martial arts, my physical fitness is worse than any of you. I am sure that I will not be infected, but you can't. Since the skills are not as good as others, don't try to follow, otherwise ..." The tone sank, full of threats, "The thing I dislike the most is people who are overwhelmed; and the thing I hate the most is people who don't cherish their lives. You should all know the consequences, right?"
Yulian and Yucui had seen Gu Qianxue persuade Su Lingxiao, and Pan Xiaopeng had seen Gu Qianxue persuade her mother, and the three of them knew how serious they were.
In the end, under Gu Qianxue's insistence, the three of them and Gu's coachman could only stay at the border of the plague area, waiting for Gu Qianxue's return with trepidation.
Gu Qianxue carried the medicine box and headed towards the plague area, going deeper and deeper.
After confirming that she was out of the sight of Yulian, Yucui, and Pan Xiaopeng, Gu Qianxue finally couldn't hold back, her dignified and wise face was distorted in pain, she threw the medicine box aside, and began to rub her hands.
"Oh my god, it hurts so much. Why does it hurt so much when you hit a stone with your internal strength! I thought it didn't hurt, but it hurts, it hurts, but luckily it didn't hurt a bone. It hurts, it hurts!" Gu Qianxue rubbed, One side was in pain and was about to cry.
In order to intimidate the three of them, she came up with the idea of chopping boulders with her bare hands. She saw those martial arts masters chopping as soon as they said it in TV dramas, and thought it wouldn't hurt.
Why are three people not allowed to follow? Naturally, it was because they were afraid that the three of them would be infected. And Gu Qianxue is sure that she is not infected? The answer was, no way.
But she did not allow innocent people to be implicated for her own reasons. After all, it would be very dangerous to go to the plague area alone without any protective measures.
Her hands were a little better, Gu Qianxue walked forward with the medicine box in her hands, her eyes were filled with desolation.
The slums, which were already simple and messy, were even more of a mess at this time. In the low mud house, most of the thatch of the roof has fallen off, and the wall made of gravel is gone, leaving only a bare wooden door standing, and there are gravel and mud all over the ground.
If she didn't know that this is the capital city, Gu Qianxue would never have imagined that this place is in the same city as the imperial palace.
Because of the intervention of the imperial court, although the pained groans of patients could be vaguely heard in the house, there were no patients or dead bodies on the road. It was fortunate that the plague would not spread too fast.
Suddenly, Gu Qianxue saw a person in front of him. That person was wearing dark blue clothes, tall and slender, holding a horse, and was also watching.
Gu Qianxue paid so much attention to him, not because he was handsome, but because he met once before. This person was the "Prince Charming" who rescued and sold his father and daughter on the street.
