Chapter 74 Necromancer
"Lord, a group of children are looking for you at the door. They look like disaster victims." The old housekeeper said respectfully.
Flying electricity hesitated for a moment and asked, "The disaster victims? Children? A group? Looking for me?"
The old housekeeper nodded.
Feidian frowned and thought for a moment and ordered, "Please ask the cook to cook more food, and then call the children in. I want to see them."
The housekeeper agreed and turned to put the children in.
In the garden of the military division's mansion, a group of dirty children ate big cakes around the holy flying electricity like white lotus. They were a little timid and dared not approach him at all for fear of staining his snow-colored clothes.
Feidian thought for a moment, walked to a child who looked older, squatted down to look at him, and asked, "Who asked you to come to me?"
"It was Hongyin who told us that a man named Master took her to eat a lot of delicious food. We came here together today and asked many people to find the mansion of Lord Junshi." After saying that, the child took another bite of the big cake.
"Red tone?" Feidian thought for a moment. It should be the girl last night. "Why didn't she come today?"
"Her feet are rotten and can't walk. Can we bring her some food back later?" The child asked expectantly.
"Is your foot rotten?" Feidian frowned. Obviously, when she saw her last night, her body was not bad, so she couldn't leave today?
"Yes," the child lifted his tattered coat, revealing a large piece of his rotten abdomen and said, "I can still walk today. I guess I won't be able to walk like Hongyin tomorrow, and I will die in another day."
When it comes to death, his tone is still calm, and Feidian couldn't help asking, "Aren't you afraid?"
"My parents are dead, and their whole body is rotten when they die. Just this morning," the child's eyes finally turned red. "They all said that Xu Chang was too holy to accept the dirty us, so the disaster victims who came to Xuchang died in two days..."
"Don't do this..." Feidian wiped the child's tears with his sleeve, and his snow-white sleeves immediately turned black. He comforted softly, "Isn't your majesty afraid that the doctor will go to treat you? Why, is there still no one there?"
"A lot of doctors came today, but they don't seem to be able to find any disease..."
In this case... Feidian thought for a moment and felt that he still had to go to the disaster area to have a look in person. He ordered the maids in the house to take good care of the children and rushed to the disaster area immediately with two bodyguards.
As soon as he arrived there, before he asked, a doctor saw him and came to take the initiative to greet him, "Master, why are you here?"
"Is it a plague?" Feidian didn't have time to talk nonsense with him and asked.
"We can't find out..." The doctor replied with a sad face, "If it's not a plague, the disease will spread too fast, and it's extremely fierce. If it's a plague, most of the people who get sick are disaster victims. The people sent to deliver food come into contact with them every day, but not many people get it. Sick."
"Most of them are disaster victims, that is to say, Xuchang's original people also got this disease?"
"Yes, someone found the villain early this morning, saying that he hurt his finger while cutting vegetables yesterday, and his whole hand is rotten today."
Feidian was silent for a long time and asked again, "Have you cut their wounds to see what is in the middle of the black abscess? Will there be any living things?
"This..." As soon as the doctor imagined the scene, he wanted to vomit disgustingly and shook his head and said, "You can't do this for the time being..."
Feidian frowned, and then another doctor came over and said urgently, "Master, three more people died just now... One of them suddenly died even when the villain was replacing his pulse..."
"suddenly?" Feidian was surprised and said, "Tian, take me to have a look."
The doctor took him to the patient who had just died. Feidian resisted the unbearable sour smell and bent down to look at him carefully. The right half of the patient's face was rotten. Feidian pulled away his clothes and found that his whole body was ulcerated and did not have a piece of good skin.
He stood up and looked around the whole disaster area. The bodies on one side were even rotten, and their bodies could still move. So it seemed that the disease could be moved on the body? When it invades the human body from different parts and reaches the face, that is, when it is in the head, the person is completely dead?
Feidian suddenly remembered the corpses that came to life that night and couldn't help looking at the new corpses arranged in a row. Will they... come back to life at night?
"Lord Military..." Suddenly, someone grabbed the sleeves of Feidian and called him weakly.
Feidian lowered his head and saw the girl last night standing beside Feidian with a branch and looking up at him.
"Red tone?" Feidian squatted down and held her shaky body, "It's only been one night. How did you become like this?"
"Our disease, the death is very fast," Hongyin whispered, "Lord Military Master, you go back first, or it will be bad to be infected with such a disease..."
"Don't do this..." Feidian said, "Tell me, how did you get sick? Is it a wound?"
"Well, before Xuchang, I just scratched my arm. When I arrived at Xuchang, it began to rot, itchy and didn't hurt. Now it began to hurt."
"What about the others? Did they all come to Xuchang with their wounds?
After Feidian asked this sentence, he suddenly found that this was nonsense. The victims were naked and hungry. They traveled a long way to Xuchang, and injuries were inevitable... So, the key to this disease is the wound?
Just now, the doctor also said that a native of Xuchang also had the same symptoms, precisely because his hand was injured while cutting vegetables. Therefore, the disease should be transmitted through wounds on the human body. Naturally, the people in Xuchang City were also injured. Maybe they didn't care, or they lived a few more days because they were in better health than these disaster victims.
So...Yin Sheng just now...
Feidian thought of Yin Sheng's wound and suddenly wanted to go to the palace immediately to see how he was doing. He... No, don't!
"Yes, everyone has a wound. After arriving at Xuchang, the wound began to rot, full of black abscesses, spreading from a little to the whole body... I'm going to die..." The red sound interrupted the meditation of flying electricity.
"You won't die," Feidian interrupted the nasal statement and comforted, "Believe me, I will find a cure for another two days. You should also trust your monarch. He is a good emperor and won't watch you die.
Hongyin touched her tears and choked and said, "Thank you, military master..."
At this time, another doctor came over, bent down and saluted, saying, "Master, we have found something..."
Flying electricity said goodbye to the red tone and went outside the crowd with the doctor. The doctor said, "The physical diseases should be due to the wound. Just now, the military master reminded me to cut the abscess of a disaster victim and found this inside..."
The doctor took out a small ceramic jar containing four blood-red fat and large maggots, which should have been seen in the body yesterday.
"Do you know what kind of bug this is?" Feidian asked.
The doctor hesitated and replied for a long time, "The little man also dabbled in other books besides medical books, but it is not good... I feel that this insect is a little like the necromancer mentioned in the book. They can swim into the body from the flesh and blood exposed outside, causing death, and then controlling people's brains into Legendary zombies..."
Feidian listened carefully and felt that it was indeed like this worm, so he asked, "Is there any way to solve it?"
"I haven't seen this... However, as long as the bodies after death are burned or smashed, the heads of the bodies can prevent them from becoming zombies."
Feidian looked at the bodies lying there... Is it really going to burn them?
