Chapter 880 Turnaround (2)
The bell made a crisp sound, and after a while, a middle-aged man in his 40s came from the racecourse, stopped three or four feet away from the fence, and said to Team Hong, "I don't know Mr. Hong. What are your orders for Xiao Xiao?"
After Team Hong introduced the identities and intentions of Nangong Yue and the three of them, Steward Yao looked frightened and hurriedly saluted, "I have seen the prince, the princess, and the imperial physician Wu." There was a glimmer of hope in his originally cloudy and gloomy eyes. , Since the imperial physician is here, does it mean that they are saved?
Nangong Yue and the others put on masks to cover their mouths and noses, wrapped their hair, and put on a specially brought coat, they signaled that Team Hong was opening the gate of the fence and followed Manager Yao into the racecourse.
Nangong Yue said as she walked, "Steward Yao, where are all those patients now?"
"I was moved to the rear hood of the racecourse." Director Yao said respectfully.
"Then take us to see it first."
Guanshi Yao watched them hesitant to say anything, but finally shook his head and sighed, and took them away.
There are more than a dozen rooms in the back room of the racecourse, which was originally the residence of some servants of the racecourse, but now it has become a place of isolation.
The doors and windows of each room were tightly locked, and even through the mask, the stench that made people want to vomit still entered Nangong Yue's nose. How can people live in such an environment, not to mention that these people are still sick. No wonder the disease spreads so quickly here!
Perhaps he heard the sound and guessed that Steward Yao had brought people here, and some people in several rooms began to slap the door panels heavily, and cried out in horror:
"Steward Yao, save us!"
"Find us a doctor."
"I don't want to die!"
"..."
Yao Guanshi hurriedly explained: "Master Shizi, the county master, and the imperial physician Wu are not too young to find a doctor for them, it's really..." The Royal Forest Army blocked the racecourse, and they were not allowed to enter or leave, so how could they ask for a doctor! What's more, this epidemic is a terminal illness, which doctor is willing to come? Not to mention these patients, even Director Yao himself does not know when he will contract the epidemic.
"I understand." Imperial Physician Wu nodded heavily, "But their current environment is too bad, which will only accelerate the deterioration of the condition..." Following Imperial Physician Wu and Director Yao, he explained a series of precautions and precautions for the epidemic. Director Yao nodded again and again with sincerity and fear.
Afterwards, Imperial Physician Wu was about to let people open the door and check the condition of these patients in person, but was stopped by Xiao Yi, and he heard Xiao Yi sternly say: "...As soon as you open the door now, they will rush out from the inside. , no one can stop it, have you ever imagined what the consequences will be?"
The people imprisoned here are almost in desperation waiting for death to come. The arrival of Imperial Physician Wu can be said to be the only hope in the dark. Once the door is opened, these people who are suppressed to the extreme are crazy enough to survive, and under the madness, no one knows what they will do.
Doctor Wu took a long sigh and admitted that he was right, but he could only give up his mind.
In fact, from Guanshi Yao's description, it can be judged that the symptoms of these patients are no different from those in the Hunting Palace. The only clues left now are the horses!
Imperial Physician Wu ordered Steward Yao to take them to the stable, and asked Nangong Yue, "Steward Yao, do you remember when the first horse got sick?"
After thinking about it carefully, Director Yao replied, "That's been at least a month."
Nangong Yue followed and asked, "So before the horse got sick, did anything special happen at the racecourse?"
