Chapter 201 Departure from Yanzhou
Shen Jintang also walked out of the room when he heard the voices of Shen Mu and others.
"Tang'er, why is your room so bright?"
Shen Jintang smiled, pointed to the luminous pearl in the box on the table and said, "The light emitted by the luminous pearl."
"Night Pearl?" Shen Yunxuan's eyes lit up and he looked towards the Night Pearl.
He had only heard of this luminous pearl from his classmates in the private school. At that time, he thought it was quite magical, but he never expected to see it in real life with his sister.
Shen Mu and Wu Qiuniang also found it quite magical.
Such a small bead can emit such a bright light.
Several people observed and marveled around Ye Mingzhu for a while, then Shen Mu looked at Shen Jintang and asked, "Have everything been packed away?"
Shen Jintang nodded, Qingdai had almost finished cleaning up for her just now.
She went on horseback and packed lightly. There was really no need to bring too many things, she could simply pack a few things.
Moreover, there is no shortage of food and drink in her space, so there is no need to worry even if you don’t bring anything.
Wu Qiuniang stepped forward and took her hand, and said caringly: "Tang'er, you must take good care of yourself so that you can have the energy to help others."
Shen Jintang smiled and nodded: "I know, mother."
At this moment, Fuling came over carrying a large bag of sewn masks.
"Girl, this is a sewn mask!"
Shen Jintang took out a few and checked them, and found that the stitches were delicate and well done.
Shen Yunbin looked at these strange pieces of cloth with two small ropes hanging on them, and asked curiously: "Tang'er, what is this for?"
Shen Jintang picked up one and put it on, revealing only a pair of beautiful almond eyes.
"This is called a mask, which can effectively isolate viruses and bacteria." Shen Jintang slowly explained: "If there is really an epidemic, everyone wearing a mask can play a certain protective role."
When Shen Mu heard this, he also curiously took one and looked at it.
"This thing is indeed good. Is this the method you came up with, Tang'er?"
Shen Jintang took off his mask, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I saw this in a book once."
Everyone in the Shen family knows that Shen Jintang loves reading, so she knows many things that they don't know.
After putting all the sewn masks into the bag, Fu Ling held the bag in her hands.
"Father, mother, eldest brother and second brother, I'm leaving."
Shen Jintang saw that Bai Ji had already led the horse out for her.
He said hello to Shen Mu and others.
Seeing this, Wu Qiuniang asked in surprise: "Tang'er, are you going by yourself?"
Shen Jintang pointed to Fu Ling who was carrying the bundle beside him and said, "I'll take Fu Ling with me."
Brothers Wu Qiuniang and Shen Yunban both knew Poria's abilities, so they felt relieved after hearing this.
But Shen Mu was busy with official duties all day long, so he naturally didn't pay attention to Fuling, and he didn't know much about Fuling's abilities.
Seeing that Fuling was the youngest among Shen Jintang's group of maids, he couldn't help but said, "Tang'er, is Fuling too young?"
When the time comes, let alone serve you, you may be asked to take care of her in turn.
Shen Jintang smiled and shook his head when he heard this, and said: "Dad, Poria has martial arts skills. It is best to take her with you when you are away from home."
Shen Mu had heard that Poria cocos was very powerful, but this was the first time he knew about her martial arts skills.
Hearing this, he didn't say much more, but just told Shen Jintang to take good care of himself and pay attention to his own safety.
Shen Jintang nodded, watched Fuling get on the horse, and then got on the horse himself.
"Mom, dad, eldest and second brother, I'm leaving. You should also take care of yourselves and pay attention to your health."
Shen Jintang waved at Shen Mu and others and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Until Shen Jintang could no longer be seen, Shen Mu and Wu Qiuniang reluctantly returned home.
After thinking about it, Shen Mu asked someone to bring over the drawings of masks drawn by Shen Jintang.
Then he took this drawing to the government office.
"Master Dong, find someone to draw a few more pictures according to the drawings above, find a woman who is good at needlework, sew this mask, and send it to Yanzhou."
Shen Mu handed the drawing to Mr. Dong.
Master Dong took the drawing and was stunned for a moment: "Sir, I wonder what this is?"
Shen Mu smiled and explained the function of the mask to Master Dong according to what Shen Jintang said.
After hearing this, Mr. Dong's face was very surprised: "Then I will find someone to draw and sew this mask."
Shen Mu nodded.
Master Dong gave Shen Mu a gift and left.
Shen Jintang and Fuling rode a horse together and rushed to Yanzhou non-stop.
When the horses got tired, they rested for the night, changed horses, and continued running.
The journey that originally took three or four days was shortened to three days.
Shen Jintang rode on his horse and saw from a distance that Yanzhou was in ruins due to the violent destruction of the flood.
Poria has never seen a flood in her entire life, let alone such a tragic scene after the flood subsided.
"Oh my God!" Fu Ling covered her mouth and exclaimed, "This place is in ruins. Where have all those people gone?"
When Shen Jintang saw this scene, his heart sank.
The floods in Yanzhou were more serious than she imagined.
She took out a porcelain bottle from her purse. The porcelain bottle contained pills that could improve the body's resistance.
She poured out two, handed one to Poria, and ate the other herself.
"Take it." When Poria heard this, she raised her head and swallowed the pill without any hesitation.
Shen Jintang took out a mask and put it on again, and Fuling quickly followed suit and put on one too.
Shen Jintang then galloped towards Yanzhou Mansion.
Entering the gate of Yanzhou Mansion, the devastated scene is more clearly visible.
"Girl, where have all the people here gone?" After walking for a while, but not seeing a single person, Fuling turned back and looked at Shen Jintang and said.
Shen Jintang was speechless.
They are walking on a street in Yanzhou now.
The surrounding area is deserted and full of ruins.
As they walked further inside, Shen Jintang's heart sank deeper and deeper.
This place is much more serious than she imagined.
I don’t know if the people here have been transferred out or have encountered something unexpected.
Fuling keenly felt that Shen Jintang was in a heavy mood, so she closed her mouth and watched all of this silently, and stopped talking.
On the tallest tower in Yanzhou.
Gu Baiyi felt extremely depressed as he watched the soldiers busy arranging the affected people.
Fortunately, he had already sent someone to deliver the letter to the emperor's grandfather when he came to Yanzhou. Counting the time, it should be in the hands of the emperor's grandfather now.
At this time, a busy and sweaty man trotted up to Gu Baiyi, first saluted him, and then said respectfully: "Your Highness, you have not rested since you have been here for the past two days. The official ordered me to prepare some simple food for you. You can use some and have a good rest."
If this ancestor were to suffer a physical breakdown here, not to mention the black gauze hat on his head, he might not even be able to protect his head!
