[The first thousand and forty-six chapters of human face plague]

savior? Gu Ye blinked his big eyes and said to Ling Juechen, “It should be Kenkun and his son. I don’t know if they came to me, what’s the urgency…” The

Luna family are all sensible, and if it wasn’t for the real thing, they wouldn’t rush it. Interrupted at the door.

Gu Ye got up and walked towards the outer courtyard, not forgetting to pit Situyan: “Master Guo Shi, you can’t tell me, and you don’t need to trouble the servants. Butler, you are wronged for following such a master!”

“You What do you mean? It’s like I’m treating my servants harshly!” Situ Yan hummed and followed.

“You don’t abuse subordinates, but you have a bad temper and love to anger people. Do you dare to say that the housekeeper doesn’t feel wronged now? What did I say wrong?” Gu Ye turned back.

Situ Yan glanced back at the housekeeper who lowered his head and lowered his eyes, and then swallowed the scolding on his lips. Who is in charge of this National Teacher’s Mansion? Has he lost his power to teach a servant?

“Patriarch? Uncle Kenkun, why are you here?” Gu Ye didn’t expect the patriarch to come. It seems that the trouble they encountered is not small!

The old patriarch and Kenkun shrunk in their chairs restrainedly, not even daring to look around. This is the National Teacher’s Mansion, the National Teacher is one person under ten thousand people, and manages hundreds of officials for the emperor.

They, the common people, did not dare to say a word when they met the county magistrate. If they didn’t have something to ask for a little genius doctor, they would not dare to go to the gate of the national teacher’s mansion if they borrowed the courage to give them two more courage! However, thanks to the little genius doctor, they were actually allowed to enter the National Teacher’s Mansion, and they were still sitting in this living room…

Hearing Gu Ye’s voice, the two were obviously relieved. The old patriarch and Ken Kun stood up and took a few steps towards Gu Ye. The old patriarch rubbed his hands cautiously and said, “I know that the little genius doctor is busy, so I shouldn’t have disturbed it. But… I really can’t help it, please help the little genius doctor!”

“Oh? Who is sick?” Gu Ye took the old patriarch The family members have gone through it in their minds, and there is no hidden disease. Could it be that they are injured?

The old patriarch sighed, hesitated, hesitated for a long time, and then opened his mouth with determination: “I heard that the little genius doctor is very good at treating plague, I don’t know about you…”

Not patronizing Ye, even the national teacher Hearing it, he was shocked. Situ Yan took two steps forward, stared at the old patriarch closely, and asked, “Plague? Could there be a plague somewhere? No! The officials below should not dare to conceal such a big thing. There is no such thing in the court these days. Lei’s memorial…”

After all, Situ Yan had been a national teacher for more than ten years, and in a hurry, the official intimidation in his body made the old patriarch’s face change with fright, and he knelt on the ground and was speechless.

Gu Ye glared at him, picked up the old patriarch, and said: “Old patriarch, don’t be afraid. With me here, no one dares to do anything to you! There are many kinds of plagues, and most of them can be prevented. You Make it clearer.” The

old patriarch secretly glanced at the national teacher. Gu Ye turned his body around, blocking Situ Yan’s figure.

The old patriarch fell into a tangle again. Gu Ye didn’t rush him, but poured a cup of tea and handed it to him in person. The old patriarch drank a sip of tea unconsciously, bit his teeth hard, and squeezed out a few words: “Human-faced plague, I wonder if the little genius doctor has heard of it!”

“Human-faced plague?!” The dim sum for hospitality fell to the ground with a crisp cracking sound.

Gu Ye glanced at him, frowned, and asked, “Housekeeper, have you heard of ‘human face plague’?” Gu Ye said that this word is very new, and he has only seen it in a fantasy novel in his previous life. similar words. However, fantasy is fantasy after all, and it is impossible to appear in reality.

The housekeeper swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice: “It is said that the human-faced plague is the curse of the plague god. Those who are cursed will have an extra face, or a head. This face can eat everything, if food is not available. , will eat the flesh and blood of the master until death. The key point is that this kind of human-faced plague can be passed on from person to person. More than 30 years ago, a village in Xishan died from the human-faced plague…”

“Legend, after all, it is a legend That’s it! Human-faced plague… I have read so many medical books, but I have only heard of human-faced sores, an infectious disease like ‘human-faced plague’, but I have never heard of it!” Gu Ye was very concerned about this terrifying and novel disease. , aroused curiosity.

Situ Yan frowned and searched in his mind for a moment, and said, “When I was sorting out previous cases, I seemed to have seen records of ‘human face plague’. Those villagers who got sick did not die from the disease, but because local officials were afraid of spreading it to others. More people ordered the entire village to be slaughtered and set on fire!”

“The village slaughter? It’s too cruel, isn’t it? How did you become a national teacher? Allow such a vicious official to exist?” Gu Ye frowned tighter.

Situ Yan glanced at her as if looking at two fools, and said, “You are still a genius doctor, so treat your ears first! I didn’t listen to the housekeeper, is that a case from more than 30 years ago? The official, later received the punishment he deserved! When this happened, I was not born yet!”

Gu Ye sighed and said, “What’s the use of being punished? A village is dead! The old patriarch , what are you asking about Renmianwen? Could it be…” The

old patriarch secretly glanced at the national teacher, hesitated for a long time, and then cautiously said: “My married daughter just gave birth to a baby boy not long ago…”

“Then It’s a good thing! Congratulations to the old patriarch on his grandson!” Gu Ye congratulated him.

The old patriarch said with a mournful face: “What are you happy about? The child has two heads as soon as it is born! People in my daughter’s village all say that this is a human-faced plague, and they will burn my daughter and grandson alive to sacrifice to the god of plague. What!”

The smile on Gu Ye’s face faded, and she looked at Situ Yan and said, “Master Guo Shi, can you impose punishments privately in your forest country? Burning people to death doesn’t have to pay for their lives?”

Situ Yan slowly He sighed and said, “Senguo is multi-ethnic, and each ethnic tribe has its own laws and regulations. Those closer to the city have more contact with the Han people, and they are gradually assimilated, which is better to manage. Some are in the deep mountains, all year round. Even if you don’t go out to the mountain tribe once, the imperial court just wants to intervene, but it’s powerless!”

Gu Ye asked the old patriarch, “Where are your daughter and grandson now?” She was worried that the mother and daughter had already been murdered!

The old patriarch said: “I took the two sons, stole the mother and daughter out, and hid them in a cave. Alas! The rumors of the human face plague are too terrifying, and I don’t dare to take the risk and take them back to my own. The village. After all, I have to think about my people!”

Gu Ye’s heart was filled with anger. The patriarch’s daughter has only given birth for two days. The child is young and lives in a cold and damp cave. Isn’t this killing them? Ignorance harms people!
