That close call was so baffling,
Li Ang asked the members of the Supervisory Department in the city to stay vigilant on the grounds of maintaining law and order in the city.
He secretly dispatched a clone of Mosi to stay in Yuan'anfang and the surrounding cities all night, focusing on the big willow tree mentioned on the phone.
At the right moment, a beggar dressed in rags, holding a pancake wrapped in oil paper in one hand and a square package in the other, wandered to the foot of the big willow tree and threw the package into the hole of the willow tree.
‘.Was it delivered through ordinary people?’
Li Ang, who was in the Prefect's Mansion, frowned slightly and asked Mo Si, who had transformed into a human form, to go out, stopped the beggar, took out fifty coins, and asked him who ordered him to do this.
The answer he received did not surprise Li Ang.
Last night, the beggar lying underground under the bridge was suddenly awakened by two strong men wearing masks.
The two men gave the beggar a lot of money and a package, asking him to deliver the package to the big willow tree in Yuan'anfang at this time today.
If the beggar fails to do so, or opens the package in advance without permission,
Then they will come to settle accounts.
Li Ang thought for a moment, then controlled Mo Si's clone and asked, "What are the characteristics of those two strong men? For example, hair, tattoos, scars, etc."
"I didn't see clearly,"
The beggar shook his head, "It was too dark, so I thought those two people were talking strangely. They didn't look like people from Yu."
"That's it."
Li Ang was a little disappointed. There was too little information and he couldn't guess anything. He casually handed fifty coins to the beggar and waved to indicate that he could leave.
Unexpectedly, the beggar still stood there with a flattering face.
Mosi's clone frowned and said, "What else is there?"
The beggar said flatteringly: "Those two people said that if someone stops me after I deliver the package, I will ask him for another ten guan as the final payment."
"Ah."
Li Ang smiled, took out a gold nugget from his arms, pinched off a small piece while the beggar stared at him, and threw it to the beggar.
The beggar bit the oil cake, caught a small piece of gold in his hands, nodded with gratitude, and quickly threw it away.
Li Ang asked other Mosi to catch up with the beggar secretly and continue to monitor,
While controlling Mo Si's clone to walk towards the willow tree, he took out the package from the tree hole.
The package is quite heavy to hold, and you can hear the contents inside shaking when it is shaken.
Li Ang asked Mo Si to carry the package all the way to a secluded and uninhabited place. After opening it, he found a wooden box with a seal inside.
He tore off the seal and opened the wooden box. There was a book in the box.
""Illustrated Catalog of Plague Ghost Talismans"?"
Li Ang raised his eyebrows in surprise. The binding of this book was plain and there was no information about the author, year of publication, etc. It looked like it was printed privately.
The content of the book records in detail the ins and outs of the plague ghost talisman, the different plague ghost talismans corresponding to different diseases, and how to use the corresponding talismans to counteract it.
"."
The more he read through it, the more Mo Si's clone frowned.
He had previously contacted the Academy through the Nearby Insect and confirmed that even the Academy did not have such detailed information on the Plague Ghost Talisman.
Especially the part about the Plague Ghost Talisman in the book, it seems as if it was written by the inventor himself.
"People in the Wang clan claim that the Plague Ghost Talisman was invented by Zhaoming Situzhi before he was captured, and was sent by Yushi, now Situzhi's disciple.
The content of this book is so detailed that I am afraid it was not written by Situ Zhi himself.
Combined with the conversation in the close insect communication yesterday, could it be that this book was sent by the forces that stole Situ Zhi?
But, for what purpose?
With this book, the next time Zhao Ming uses the Plague Ghost Talisman to cause trouble, Yu State will at least have countermeasures."
Mo Si rubbed her chin separately, and couldn't figure out the reason, so she could only put away the book and hide underground.
————
Eighteen days later, as the second batch of plague patients cured by streptomycin left the isolation ward, Taiyuan Prefecture finally relaxed its lockdown and resumed transportation with other prefectures.
Hospitals in various places are diligently producing streptomycin based on the Streptomyces spores sent by Li Ang. I believe that this plague will soon be over.
After completing his mission, Li Ang took a motorcycle back to Chang'an with Li Leling, Qiu Feng and others to receive the award in front of the saint.
All those who contributed to the plague disaster were either knighted, rewarded, or promoted based on their contribution.
All medical staff, soldiers and government officials who unfortunately died or were injured, as well as their families and relatives, will receive subsidies from the government every year for the next seventy years.
A large part of this money comes from compensation from the Taiyuan Wang family.
Li Ang will keep an eye on this amount to ensure that it can be distributed to every family to prevent corruption and disappear out of thin air.
As for the Taiyuan Prefecture governor,
It is a fact that he worked hard, and it is also a fact that he was unable to do anything about the corruption in the Taiyuan government.
Considering that Li Leling almost died of the plague in the prefect's mansion, the furious Emperor demoted the prefect's official position and sent him to the lower county to be tortured.
As for how long it will take, it all depends on Emperor Yu's mood.
After the dust of rewards and punishments had settled, Li Ang also found an opportunity and handed the "Illustrated Book of Plague Ghost Talismans" to Chen Danqiu, the academy's sacrificial wine.
and expressed his guess.
Chen Danqiu was also puzzled by the sudden appearance of a third-party force. After thinking about it for a long time, he asked Li Ang to pretend that nothing happened.
He will ask Dr. Xuegong to secretly study the "Pattern of Plague Ghost Symbols" to guard against another attack by Zhao Ming in the future.
And asked the monks from the Supervision Department to investigate Situ Zhi's whereabouts.
As for Li Ang himself, he took the carriage back to Jinchengfang Mansion in a happy mood, pushed open the door with one hand, and shouted: "I'm back!"
"Master!"
Chai Chai, who was sitting in the hall writing something, jumped up excitedly, trotted over and jumped into Li Ang's arms, and then reached out to grab the package Li Ang was carrying.
"Don't do anything as soon as you come up, okay?"
Li Ang rolled his eyes, but still opened the package and took out the specialties he brought back from Taiyuan Prefecture, such as pasta, desserts, etc.
"There are also two bags of mutton frozen with Liliangfu in the package. They will be put in the refrigerator later."
Li Ang said casually, walked into the hall, and caught a glimpse of a stack of paper left by Chai Chai on the table, "Huh? What is this?"
He glanced at it and saw that it was actually a romance novel, and the heroine was named "Liying Shang".
"Whoa, ah, ah, ah, don't look!"
Chai Chai, who was picking desserts, noticed Li Ang's actions and didn't even bother to eat. He blushed and rushed forward with a scream, trying to cover Li Ang's eyes with his palms.
However, it was still too late. Li Ang could not help but read half of the contents of the paper at a glance.
This "Li Yingshang" was of noble birth and was a great influence on the country. Everyone who saw her could not help but fall under her pomegranate skirt.
And according to the half-written text on the paper, it turned out to be written by Chai Chai himself.
