Chapter 215 The Great Disaster of the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 215 The Great Disaster of the Ming Dynasty
Su Chen's eyes blurred, and he came to a messy and dirty place. He looked up and found that it was a dilapidated village.
It seems that the place has been ravaged by heavy rain. There are many dilapidated gaps in the houses. There are many sundries washed out by the flood on the street. Daily necessities such as pots, pans and pans are piled up on the long street, and there are many large and small pits where water accumulates. Hole.
"What happened?"
Su Chen looked at the messy village and was a little confused.He is not an expert in history, and as a science student, he is a sleeper in history class. He has no idea what special things happened in the Ming Dynasty in 1494.
[Mission release: assist Li Shizhen to transfer the victims, and protect Li Shizhen to reach northern Hubei. 】
"Disaster victims? Li Shizhen?"
Su Chen froze for a moment, and then let out a surprise.
Li Shizhen!The famous genius doctor of the Ming Dynasty, the system does not deceive me.
Just as Su Chen wanted to find a way to rescue the old dean Chen Qing, he sent him a task to help the genius doctor Li Shizhen. When the task is completed, will Dr. Li Shizhen not give him some benefits?Maybe there is a life-saving magic medicine in it?
"No matter how bad it is, there are still mileage points that can be earned. At that time, you can go to the Wanjie business world to find suitable medicine."
Su Chen was as excited as chicken blood, at this moment, Su Chen heard someone talking.
He fixed his eyes and saw a ragged couple not far away. They were leading a scrawny boy into Su Chen's field of vision.
The woman lowered her head and encouraged the boy softly, "Zhenglang, if you persist for a while, we will be able to go to the Temple of the City God, and there will be a doctor there who can treat you."
doctor?
When Su Chen heard this keyword, he immediately thought of Li Shizhen, the task issuer.
He leaned over to inquire about the details, and when he saw the famine-like appearance of a few people, he felt pity.
"You should be hungry, I have here..." Su Chen said while operating the Chivalry Mall to exchange some food for them.
But when Su Chen entered the mall, he realized that his chivalrous points and mileage points were both cleared, and he couldn't exchange food at all.
Su Chen touched her head in embarrassment, then changed the subject and said, "Little brother, can't you walk anymore? Let me carry you on my back. You are also going to the Town God's Temple?"
Su Chen got close, the two parents hesitated a little, but the boy couldn't walk anymore, and they were too tired to take care of him, so they asked Su Chen to help carry the boy on his back.
"Thank you very much, we are going to the Town God's Temple." A man and a woman said gratefully.
[Brave for righteousness, chivalrous value +10. 】
Um?This will do.
Now that he has Chivalry Points, Su Chen entered the Chivalry Mall again.
At this time, there were two planes, Modern Earth and Ming Dynasty Earth, in the mall. Su Chen exchanged 10 points for some dry food in the Ming Dynasty Mall, then reached into his arms, pretending to take them out and hand them to the two.
"I still have some dry food here, you can eat some."
When they saw the bread that Su Chen handed over, their eyes lit up, and they almost knelt down for Su Chen.
They had been starving for four days, and for four days they had to drink dirty water and eat some weeds and tree bark to survive.
"Zhenglang, you eat!" The parents took the bread without touching it, and handed it to the boy behind Su Chen.
When the boy saw the bread, his sickly face glowed like a flash of light, and he took the bread excitedly and gnawed it.
"Don't be in a hurry!" Su Chen turned around and saw the boy eating, and grabbed the bread back with his hand.
The boy's family of three looked at Su Chen's actions, and suddenly there was a fierce look in their eyes.The man even clenched his fists, as if he wanted to attack Su Chen and snatch the bread.
If a person is so hungry, it is possible to change his son to eat, let alone attack an outsider in Su Chen.
Su Chen doesn't know the history of the Ming Dynasty, but he still understands the famine in ancient times.The backward agricultural system and uncontrollable natural disasters lead to periodic famines.Even in modern times, the history that everyone in China can have enough to eat started from the great man Yuan Nongping, and the total history does not exceed a hundred.
Su Chen's hostility towards this family of three is understandable, and he is not short of this piece of bread, so he explained: "If you've been hungry for a long time, eating too quickly will hurt yourself."
A man and a woman were stunned when they heard Su Chen's words. Naturally, they didn't understand this truth. How could they hurt themselves by eating when they were hungry?
Su Chen didn't have time to explain the modern medicine of the contraction and expansion of the stomach to them, so he tore the bread in half, then tore the half into thirds, and handed a portion to the parents and the boys.
"I only have one piece of bread, you can't eat it all in one go."
This reason was easily accepted by the boy's family of three.They quickly took the bread that Su Chen divided into three, swallowed it in two big gulps, then took out a gourd and drank a few mouthfuls of water alternately.
"Thank... thank you." The man expressed his thanks to Su Chen again, with some embarrassment and shame on his face, he really had the idea of hurting Su Chen and grabbing the dough just now.
Su Chen could hear the man's shame, but he didn't say anything, and continued to ask, "What happened to you?"
From the mission, Su Chen only knew two key words: Li Shizhen and disaster victims, but she didn't know what kind of disaster it was.
famine?
"The Yellow River is flooded, don't you know? Which family are you a son or an official?"
The man was half full at this time, and only then did he have the strength to look at Su Chen.He found that Su Chen's skin was fairer and tenderer than his mother-in-law's, and she was in a strong body, with a look of eating, drinking and resting, which was obviously different from the yellow-faced and emaciated disaster victims like them.
In this calamity year, the only ones who can be as respectable as Su Chen, except for the top princes, are those officials who are greedy for disaster relief food.
Su Chen ignored the other party's inquiry, and focused on the disaster situation: "The Yellow River burst its embankment? Is it because of continuous torrential rain?"
"I don't know, the flood suddenly came from the northeast. This is already the second wave. My old man didn't escape, and the fields and houses were washed away. Our family of three followed the crowd and fled north. I can't hold it anymore. Hey, I don't know if there will be a third wave..."
The man looked at his wife and the boy behind Su Chen, his face was full of affection.Anyone can die in a disaster year, but he can't. He has to protect his wife and children.
"What's the matter with the child, you just said to go to the Chenghuang Temple to find a doctor?" Su Chen asked again, it was related to Li Shizhen's situation.
"I don't know. I have a fever. It must be a hunger illness. I haven't eaten for several days. It would be nice if I had a bowl of porridge."
The woman touched the child's head distressedly, took the words and said: "We heard that there is a doctor in the Town God's Temple in this town who treats people for free, so we brought Zhenglang over here."
After asking here, Su Chen probably knew the situation.
The Yellow River burst its embankment, and the flood destroyed fertile land, causing famine. If you don’t have enough to eat, you will naturally suffer from poor health, so you will easily get sick.
Li Shizhen is hanging the pot to save the world, I am his assistant role.
The next Lu Suchen didn't ask any more questions, his body was strengthened by the blood of his ancestors, carrying a five or six-year-old child on his back was like playing with him, and he came to the Town God's Temple with ease.
However, the Town God's Temple in front of him was not as harmonious as Su Chen imagined, and he heard fierce disputes as soon as he came.
"Li Shizhen, why don't you let us go out!"
"That's right, we're here to see you for treatment, not to go to jail!"
In front of the Town God's Temple, several thin-skinned people were trying to leave at the door, but a neatly dressed man and two young boys who looked like apprentices blocked him.
"Listen to me, listen to me!" The man shouted loudly, but no one paid any attention to him.
"Listen to what you said, don't you just say that we will infect others when we are sick, you want to lock us up and wait for death, we won't wait for death!"
The crowd started to charge again, but they were so hungry and weak that the man and two young apprentices unexpectedly blocked them.
"infectious disease?"
The three members of the boy's family heard Li Shizhen's words from a distance, and they dared not come any closer.
Su Chen also frowned. He put down the boy on his back and said, "I'll go ask about the situation."
At this moment, Su Chen suddenly caught a glimpse of a furious man rushing to the door and hitting the man on the head with a flat wooden stick in his hand.
Damn it, you dare to hit my benefactor's father?
Su Chen used his butt to figure out that the man in front of him was Dr. Li Shizhen. He immediately cut out the body of the ancestor, and flashed past in a blink of an eye.
clatter--
Su Chen reached out to block the shoulder pole that the man dropped, and then shouted: "Calm down!"
While Su Chen was speaking, the source of disaster was slightly revealed, and the people in the City God's Temple immediately felt the aura of the emperor's tour, trembling and almost knelt down.
