Chapter 72: Who Made the Prescription?

Bai Wutong's team was not small to begin with. Now that they had the additional 30 Qinghe families led by the Cui family, the entire team instantly reached a few thousand people.

There were even more of them than the city guards.

With so many people, it was impossible not to attract attention.

However, none of the 200,000 troops sent by Duke Ping to Jiangyuan City and Fengming City stopped them from heading to Ling Kingdom.

Thick black smoke rose from where the 200,000-strong army camped. Bai Wutong's expression darkened. Qingfeng said, "The army is infected with the plague."

The 200,000-strong army had already been infected by the plague before they could even go to the battlefield to support the front line. No matter how powerful Lord Ning Yuan was, he would probably not be able to defend Fengming City for long without reinforcements.

Bai Wutong and the others planned to bypass Jiangyuan City. The Cui family's body immunity was not better than taking long-term medicine. Therefore, the matter of Yang Quanzi offering the prescription fell into the hands of Qingfeng and Lin Yue.

It just so happened that they were going to Jiangyuan City to settle some matters, so it was more suitable for them to present the prescription than the others.

When they separated, Bai Wutong specially gave them a protective mask with a hood and a pair of gloves. After dressing up, Bai Wutong laughed out loud, as they looked a little like a bandit in stockings.

Qingfeng was still calm, but Lin Yue's face was as red as a monkey's butt. He muttered, "Must you do this?"

Bai Wutong said, "Why not? This is called effective protection. We can't miss any of it. When you come back, remember to change your clothes under the ginkgo tree in front. Come back after you have sanitized with alcohol."

Since Bai Wutong had already said so, no matter how ugly Lin Yue felt he looked, he could only accept it.

Lin Yue and Qingfeng rode their horses and parted ways with Bai Wutong and the others. They quickly rushed towards Jiangyuan City.

The city gates of Jiangyuan City were tightly shut, and the city was filled with sick and pale commoners.

Lin Yue and Qingfeng looked at each other and shouted to the city guards, "We have a prescription for the plague. We request an audience with the magistrate!"

The city guards looked at each other on the city wall and shouted at them, "Wait, let's inform the Lord first."

...

With a creak, the door was pushed open by an old woman. She brought out a cauldron filled with thick phlegm and shook her head at Magistrate Shi from afar, indicating that it was better for the old man not to see.

Magistrate Shi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. His father had accidentally contracted the plague and had a divine doctor disciple who had been treating him for two days. Not only had his condition not improved, but it had even become worse.

If Gu Zhongxun had not emphasized that he could only give it a try and was not confident, Magistrate Shi would have dragged this divine doctor's disciple out and killed him.

Magistrate Shi could not wait any longer. Almost 80% of the people in the city were sick. If his father was sick, how soon would it be his turn?

If there was no other way to treat him, Magistrate Shi planned to move his father to the courtyard at the back first.

It was not that he was unfilial. If the old man felt sorry for his grandson, he would definitely ask to leave.

Magistrate Shi was about to look for Gu Zhongxun and ask him if there was any progress in the condition when a servant rushed in anxiously and shouted, "Master, it's bad. Eldest Young Master and Madam are having a fever!"
