Chapter 390: Ancestors’ Heroic Spirits, Their Glory Will Not Fall
You County.
Black smoke billowed and the smell of corpses filled the city.
When Tie Tang returned here, the sky was already dark, but he saw a fire burning in the west direction of the city, and thick black smoke mixed with green mist shot straight into the sky.
Police officers are already gathering the dead bodies and burning them on the spot.
Only Li Qingwan was left guarding and treating people in You County, while He Changsheng and Qiu Zhengyang went to other cities.
After all, there are still many places infected with the plague.
Seeing Tie Tang return, Li Qingwan asked worriedly: "How?"
She has been the governor of Qingshui County for thirty years and knows that the officialdom is as deep as the sea and many things are not as beautiful as she imagined.
"It doesn't matter, I am also an inspector after all, and there are people above me watching."
Tie Tang briefly told Jiang Du and his party, and then asked about the specific situation in You County.
"Something is not good."
Li Qingwan soared through the air, stepped into the air of You County, pointed downward and said: "Preliminary statistics show that the number of corpses found in various places in the city is close to seven thousand.
Many people were sent out of the city and buried after they died of early infection.
Some people died silently at home, and no one knew about them.
I'm afraid at least tens of thousands of people died in You County alone.
That’s not all.
Today, the number of people infected with the plague is at least 200,000, and nearly every household in the city is infected.
If we drag this out any longer, a lot of these people will probably die."
Tie Tang was horrified when he heard this. He didn't expect that the situation in You County had become so difficult.
"Is there any cure?"
"If you and I take action, we can naturally drive away the plague."
"But"
"Why, what's the problem?"
Li Qingwan raised her eyebrows slightly and asked slowly: "How many people can you save? How many people can I save?"
Tie Tang was stunned.
He understands what Li Qingwan means.
There are currently as many as ten or two hundred thousand people in the city infected with the plague.
There are too many people!
This is a plague that even the ordinary soul witches are helpless to deal with. Li Qingwan, a witch and Taoist sect in the heavenly witch realm, naturally has the means to treat it.
A genius like Tie Tang is also not lacking in witchcraft and supernatural powers.
But the problem is that there are only two of them.
Two people facing 200,000 people are too insignificant.
Even if they continue to attack day and night, hundreds of thousands of people will die of the plague before they can wait for their treatment.
"We need to have a wide range of healing powers, or have the Clinic Department develop healing pills that can be produced in batches as soon as possible."
Li Qingwan gave her own opinion.
Tie Tang made a quick decision: "Go find Wang Andao first, and go back to Qingshui City with him to ask Mr. Liu to take action to see if you can develop a pharmacy.
Let me try it here!"
"Do you have any idea?"
“You’ll have to try it before you know, and I’m not sure either.”
"Okay!"
After Li Qingwan left, Tie Tang sat in the sky above You County. There were many policemen below, and the policemen were coming and going.
Suddenly.
There were sounds of fighting in the direction of the county jail.
Tie Tang took a closer look.
It turned out that imprisoned Yang Wan and other officials wanted to escape from prison.
They knew that they were guilty of serious crimes and could not escape death, so they wanted to escape You County.
"These grasshoppers dance so happily even when they are about to die."
With a thought in Tie Tang's mind, the four divine beasts surrounding him, the green dragon, the white tiger, the red bird, and the black basalt, jumped out of the sky and headed straight towards the prison.
When his strength reaches his level, he can absolutely crush Yang Wan and others who are still in the Wujin Secret Realm.
Dragons roar around the city and tigers roar.
The dozens of officials who made the revolt felt the pressure being pressed so hard that their ears could not hear, and their eyes were filled with a lake.
Bang bang bang
Officials collapsed to the ground one after another, with blood all over their bodies, and the ground soon became red.
Apart from the police officers, only one official could still stand.
Tang Xinde looked at the majestic and angry four spirits in the sky around him, and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
"Thank you, sir, for showing mercy."
Tie Tang's voice came from the sky: "You are the local county magistrate. You will handle and imprison these people. Don't let me down."
"Yes, I will do my best as a subordinate!" Tang Xinde knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.
Tie Tang held back on Tang Xinde because he had reminded him before.
In addition, You County also needs an official who is familiar with the local situation and can control the situation to handle affairs. Tang Xinde is an official who barely meets the requirements.
But these are all trivial matters. The real trouble in You County today is not these officials who are greedy for life and fear of death, but the common people who are infected with the problem.
If this follow-up matter is not handled well and many people die in vain again, then the Holy Capital Oversight Hall may not be able to save Tie Tang.
"Can it be done?"
Tie Tang raised his head and glanced at the sky. It was dark and dull, the stars and moon retreated, and the sun was not visible.
——
Jiangdu Prefecture.
After Tie Tang left, a group of officials headed by Feng Yi discussed for a long time.
Among them was an official familiar to Tie Tang.
General Zhenxi——Si Guangji!
Si Guangji looked around and said slowly: "Master, the plague should not be underestimated. I was afraid that Qingshui County was too weak to deal with it, so I dared to ask for orders to help the people."
As soon as he said this, officials immediately agreed.
"The general's words are true. If such a disaster breaks out in Qingshui County, it will be difficult for Qingshui County to take care of everything. I can't bear the suffering of the people, so I am willing to ask for orders to go."
"I am also willing to go!"
"I can also lead my troops there."
A moment.
Everyone in the palace was scrambling to be the first, as if they had become saints responsible for the lives of the people, and asked for orders to go to Qingshui County.
Feng Yi didn't say a word, just sat quietly in the main seat.
He naturally knows the true purpose of these officials.
It is true to save people, but the starting point may not be good intentions.
Now that a plague has broken out in Qingshui County, someone has taken the blame, so what is left?
If you have a fault, you will have merit.
Whether you pass it or not, the rest will naturally be credit.
Tie Tang and other Qingshui County officials took the blame, and these officials could take away the fruits of their achievements, and the name was very nice.
‘I’m here to help you save people, as a matter of course, it’s too late for you to thank me.’
Benefits.
It is always the eternal theme of officialdom.
Even if the current governor is not Tie Tang, if it were anyone else, they would do the same thing.
Seeing that many officials looked like they were "fist-hearted", Feng Yi glanced at Xu Jinghui, who was as calm as a mountain and did not say a word.
"I know your good intentions, but the affairs of a county are handled by local officials. Otherwise, what else would they do?
You are all so enthusiastic. Could it be that your job has been completed properly?
Do you want me to speak out and ask Mr. Xu to take action to check and accept it for you?"
As soon as these words came out, the scene instantly calmed down.
Even Si Guangji, who took the lead in making the suggestion, looked outside the door and did not dare to look directly at the elders in front of him.
Feng Yi did not agree to this matter because he had many considerations.
This era.
Every official attaches great importance to the jurisdiction of his own territory.
Even the most incorruptible and power-less supervisory envoy, if he goes to other cities to handle matters, must go to the local supervisory office to apply and report, and when he arrives there, he must verify his identity.
What does it take to be an official?
Power.
They are the officials if they have power. Without power, who knows who you are?
Qingshui County is an area governed by a group of officials headed by Tie Tang.
No matter what happens inside, whether it is good or bad, these officials are responsible.
Unless there is a rebellion like the one in Jiuyao City that threatens Chao Gang.
In general.
Other officials will not easily interfere in the affairs of other cities.
That may offend people.
It will violate some taboos.
Moreover, the county guards of Qingshui County are no better than ordinary people. If it were another county guard, Feng Yi might have sent someone with a wave of his hand, or even gone to deal with it himself.
But Tie Tang's qualifications, identity, and background made Feng Yi wary and did not dare to offend easily.
He has other means to help Tie Tang, and he can also get a share of the soup in this major event of the plague.
"Well, Sheriff Iron is very talented. I believe he has other means to deal with the plague. We don't need to worry.
It's just that the plague has caused many people to suffer. We also need to do our part in dealing with the aftermath.
This government has decided...
Use treasury funds to provide disaster relief, rebuild the homes of those affected by the disaster, and take care of the livelihood of the orphans and widows.
What do you think...?"
The hall fell into dead silence again.
Shaoqin.
Xu Jinghui laughed loudly and slapped his thigh: "The master of the palace is doing this a great kindness. This official is quite wealthy and is willing to donate millions of gold to the flood victims."
Feng Yi smiled happily and immediately answered: "Even so, I cannot fall behind Mr. Xu."
The second-in-command of Jiangdu Prefecture, Jiangdu Prefecture Cheng, also had joy on his face, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking in his heart.
"Two gentlemen go first, and the lower officials should follow suit."
The three giants of the first government have all spoken, and the only ones who can compete with them... are the chief captain who leads the inspection department of the first government, and the captain who commands the soldiers and horses of the first government.
All officials looked at these two people.
"This is a great act of kindness, how dare I disobey it?"
"This is a mere yellow and white thing, but I still have some money and don't hesitate to donate it."
These five people stand on one side, and other officials combined cannot resist. How can anyone dare to oppose?
There was a moment of joy and laughter in the hall, and everyone became a great benefactor who helped the world.
It's just a bit of joy and a bit of pain, but only you know it.
Finally.
With donated materials raised by many officials in Jiangdu Prefecture, and treasury money allocated by Feng Yi, a huge amount of property was escorted to Qingshui City.
At the same time.
Tie Tang, who was sitting in the air in You County, finally decided to take action.
He sat cross-legged in the sky, listening to the pain and howling of the many people below.
"Mom, you don't want to die. Who will save my mother... woo woo!"
"Lin'er, dad will cure you, don't worry."
"Dad, if you keep persisting, everything will be fine. It will be fine. If you die, the child will not live either."
"Guan Guan, Guan Guan, why did the new county magistrate abandon us? If it hadn't been for him... grandpa wouldn't have died."
"The imperial court will save us, and someone will come."
"The court...can we still wait?"
……
Who caused the plague is completely unimportant to them.
They just want to know...when will things get better?
In any suffering, these common people without any cultivation are the first-line victims.
Tie Tang felt the hearts of all the people and couldn't help but feel sad. For the first time, he felt the responsibility of being an official of a party.
He sat upright in the void, the dragon's spine rumbled, and a totem pole rose from his back.
Shining in all directions, the sky is filled with patterns.
"The great sun of Haotian shines all over the world, the sun is blazing, the light is shining, it was created innately, and I am the only one who is supreme!"
The "Haotian Great Sun Picture" created by Suiren has the aura of an inner saint and an outer king, and is extremely domineering, but Tie Tang is not sure whether it can drive away the plague here.
He thought for a long time, and other methods were abandoned. Only this totem avenue, the first in the world, might be able to create miracles.
"If my ancestors are here, might they help me?"
Tie Tang meditates on the great sun and scans the sky, just like the bright sun in the sky, its power cannot be seen.
This moment.
He seemed to have seen the invincible emperor from ancient times.
That is the ancestor of the human race, inherited by blood.
The Suiren clan is too ancient, but powerful enough, and no one knows whether he is still alive in the world.
Wisps of light radiate from Tietang's body. The bright golden light is extremely dazzling, but also extremely warm, as if an innate fetus is about to be born.
It is obviously dark night at this time.
But many people who locked themselves in their houses found that the outside windows gradually became brighter.
"What's going on outside?"
"There were a large number of police officers moving around before. Could it be that they were from the imperial court?"
"Would you like to go out and take a look?"
"No!"
"Once you contract such a nasty disease, no one can cure it, so we can't take the risk."
……
Wisps of brilliance shine from the void to the world, scattering throughout You County, and even stretching for dozens of miles outside the city.
Where Tietang is, it has been covered by countless rays of light.
This moment.
He replaced the Great Sun.
The immeasurable golden light illuminates the night sky in Youxian, making everything look like daytime.
The brilliant light... attracted the attention of the policemen who were cleaning the streets.
Some people stopped carrying and looked up at the new sun in the sky.
Someone looked at his right hand. The wound that had been infected by the plague and had begun to fester gradually began to heal after being illuminated by the golden divine light.
Streams of blue-gray smoke floated out from the wound and slowly rose into the sky.
"My plague seems to be cured..."
"It was that ** day."
"I remember where..."
"I just saw Mr. Tie sitting cross-legged there, thinking for a long time."
"This kind of magical power... can be called a powerful force."
……
Countless brilliant rays of light are like the rising sun, illuminating everything in the world and bringing hope to everyone.
Wisps of golden light penetrated through the eaves and fell on the people of You County.
"Dad, your wound is healing."
"My child, your face...the pimple on your face has disappeared."
"It's light, it's these divine lights!"
"Get out, we want to get out."
"Do you really want to go out?"
"Get out!"
Crunch!
A door is opened.
The skinny young man staggered out of his home, carrying his father, who was covered in ulcers.
Crunch!
The second door opens.
A weak woman with a blue and black face walked out leading two young children with dull skin and dark spots.
Third tone!
The fourth tone!
……
One by one, the people walked out of their houses and went out to welcome the golden brilliance.
They raised their heads and opened their arms, as if embracing the sun.
And the new sun over Youxian lived up to expectations and did its best to shine on the earth.
Countless golden lights are born, and countless gray smoke rises.
After all, the power of the plague cannot withstand the power of the Haotian Sun.
The oldest totem avenue, spanning millions of years, will reappear in this distant future.
The ancestors of the human race who may have passed away long ago...
