Chapter 358 Angry God
But the source of the plague is always like a time bomb. If it is not found and dealt with, it will suddenly explode at some point.
After thinking about it for a long time, I can only put this matter aside for the time being.
If she had asked more people in the village and let them know that Mrs. Jiang was infected with the plague, Mrs. Jiang would definitely be targeted. Even if the villagers would not tell them for the sake of her and Chu Qingyun, they would definitely not feel at ease secretly or overtly. .
After worrying about this for a long time, Ye Qingran finally found the source outside the village.
There have been beggars coming from far away in the past few days. I don't know who heard that the village here has been distributing disaster relief food, and there are doctors who provide free medical treatment, so they rushed over hanging on to their lives.
When Ye Qingran was notified to come over to check, a group of people fell on the ground outside the village. They were dirty and skinny. They had not had enough to eat for an unknown period of time.
She stepped forward to investigate and found that all these people were infected with the plague, which was exactly the same as the disease Jiang suffered.
But none of these people were awake, so they couldn't ask about their origins, so they had to build a temporary shed to house them, and told the villagers not to come close to avoid contracting the plague.
The villagers had experienced the plague and naturally knew how terrible the plague was. Even though they listened to the advice, they never came near it.
Under Ye Qingran's diagnosis and treatment, some of those who were relatively mildly ill have woken up, but they are still too weak to get out of bed.
She asked: "Where are you from?"
"It's on the edge of the town in the southeast... We came here because we had no choice. Thank you girl for the rescue..."
Hearing this, Ye Qingran didn't ask any more questions, just frowned slightly, told them to take a good rest and left for now.
The town in the southeast was a place they often went to do shopping, just because it was the closest to the village and had all the items, but they didn't expect a plague to happen nearby.
I think the plague came to Jiang's because people who went out for shopping passed by the plague-infected area on the edge of the town and brought back some viruses.
Mrs. Jiang happened to come into contact with them, so she contracted the plague.
It's just that the others are good at martial arts, have deep internal strength, and have incomparable physiques. The virus cannot affect them, so only Jiang was affected.
Now Jiang's illness has improved and he will no longer be transmitted to other people. I think the effect of the medicine is pretty good.
Once the source of the plague is found, everything will be much easier to handle.
As long as you don't let other people come here or take precautions, you won't infect more people.
It is not a problem to let these beggars live outside at the moment. In such cold weather, even if they recover from illness, they will freeze to death outside.
The temporary shed could not block the wind, so Ye Qingran ordered people to start building a simple house not far away. He spent a lot of time making a thatched house and then placed them in it.
In addition, she also distributed food to them and asked them to settle down first and arrange their future affairs after their symptoms were completely gone.
After Ye Qingran's busy treatment, the situation in and outside the village has improved a lot, but she still separates those who have recovered from those who have not yet recovered to prevent secondary infection.
When she had free time, she also found alcohol from the space to disinfect them. When asked, she just said it was alcohol and didn't mention anything else.
After being so busy these days, Ye Qingran was getting a little anxious.
It is already so difficult to deal with the natural disaster before it comes. When the natural disaster comes, will she really be able to take care of so many people?
What if the next natural disaster no longer just lands in the northern region, but affects more people in other places, how should she deal with it?
But the weather didn't worry her for long. The next day after finishing her work, the temperature suddenly got much higher.
When the people in the village woke up, they found that the snow outside had turned into water and the ground was muddy. They felt hot under the thick quilts, and even the coats and robes they were wearing were a little hard to wear.
The weird temperature shocked everyone else, but they were also a little lucky.
After all, the continuous low temperature in the past few days is really scary. If it continues like this, it will be regarded as a frost disaster.
Before they could worry about it for long, it began to rain in the afternoon, and the originally muddy road was now soaked in water, making it difficult to walk.
By the evening, the temperature was even higher, as if we were suddenly in summer. Even the moisture on the road had evaporated a lot. After one night, it returned to normal.
Ye Qingran looked at the sunny weather outside, feeling the suitable temperature, and even felt a little dazed.
This is really weird, but fortunately, the current weather and temperature are normal and what they will be like in early spring. I just don’t know how long it will last, or whether it will suddenly change again after one night.
She didn't care about thinking about this, and went out again to check on the villagers and beggars outside, and then redistribute daily necessities to them.
While she was walking around the village for follow-up consultations, she heard someone discussing the temperature and weather changes. They said that they had done something wrong to anger God, so they issued a disaster warning. This time it would not last long. So it's just a small warning. If it is not corrected, natural disasters will happen like before, with countless casualties.
After experiencing so many disasters, they still believe in this, otherwise they would not have gone to the altar to worship the moon and pray for blessings when the conditions were so bad.
Ye Qingran was dismissive of these superstitious things, but that didn't stop them from thinking so.
After all, they think so. At most, they can just take out some food to do some worshiping and other things. It won't affect anything, and it can also make them feel at ease, which is barely a good thing.
After she left after the follow-up consultation, the villagers gathered together and said, "This has angered God. What are we going to do?"
"I don't know... this... if there is another natural disaster, how can we survive in our current situation?"
A group of people gathered together to worry. After a while of silence, a middle-aged man stood up.
"Don't panic, everyone. Our ancestors have known some magic techniques for generations. My great-grandfather once made sacrifices and left us some ways to communicate with God. When I go back to look for it and study it, I may be able to find a solution."
He had slender eyes and long eyebrows, a serious expression, and a somewhat mysterious tone. The villagers were dubious and watched him go home.
This man is a well-known old bachelor in the village. He was not from the north before. He was a refugee from someone unknown, so he lived here with them for three or four years.
