Uncle Fu had already asked the strong young men to go to several nearby villages to say hello, and asked the villagers to come out to clean the roads together, which saved a lot of time.
The Bai sisters all have some medical skills, and there are some good medical skills among the servants. Plus with Zhao Qiang here, they can handle ordinary typhoid fever or minor injuries on their own, but there is no need for Bai Ling to diagnose and treat everyone.
"Sister, I'll leave this to you. I'll go to the next village first. Just keep enough medicinal materials for two or three days, and try to send the rest to other villages."
Bai Ling looked a little tired after undergoing two operations in a row. Fortunately, they were both successful.
"You can take a nap on the road for a while, keep the charcoal fire burning brighter, and don't catch the wind and cold anymore." Baicao nodded in understanding, "We will discuss other things with my parents. The most unavailable thing during this time is
is you."
In every village, there were villagers who were seriously injured after being crushed by houses, and they had to rely on Bai Ling to treat them.
But a person's energy is limited, and the earlier the treatment is provided, the better. Bai Ling will have to suffer a lot more.
"Sister, you have to take care of yourself too." Bai Ling nodded and got into the carriage.
The distance between each village is not too far, and even if it takes some time on the way, Bai Ling doesn't have much time to rest.
Even if he didn't rest for one night, he could only drive through two villages and treat a few seriously injured villagers.
If Bai Ling hadn't taken Lingquan water for a long time and exercised regularly, he wouldn't have been able to endure such fatigue.
"Master, my subordinates have sent people to investigate. Almost all villages in Wufu Town have seriously injured people. The most serious village has more than ten or twenty people. At present, the number of villagers who have lost their houses exceeds 200, and the death toll
Over a hundred.”
Haitang reported back after getting on the carriage.
When he asked the secret guard to deliver a letter to Shangguan Yu, Bai Ling asked him to go to the town to find Haitang to find out the disaster situation so that he could provide more effective disaster relief.
Leaning against the car wall, closing his eyes and concentrating, Bai Ling nodded to express his understanding, and after a long time he spoke:
"In terms of disaster relief, just give instructions and don't skimp, but you must also verify clearly to avoid anyone taking advantage of troubled waters."
In any case, there are people who seek their own interests regardless of the difficulties of the general environment. Bai Ling does not seek to completely avoid it, but he must try his best to avoid such a situation.
"Yes." Haitang accepted the order.
"Take my post to Magistrate Ouyang and the county magistrate of Baifu County, and tell them not to worry about Wufu Town. You can take care of other places and do your best. Don't waste rescue time." Bai Ling
And he ordered.
Seeing that Bai Ling had no other instructions, Haitang left in a flash. No one except the coachman noticed that she had been there.
The little girl who had her acupuncture points pulled her cloak, and Bai Ling quickly fell asleep.
For ten days in a row, Bai Ling wandered around the villages, treating villagers who were in serious condition, and unknowingly left the boundaries of Wufu Town.
"The people from the government haven't come, and our people haven't come here either?" After Bai Ling entered the village, he felt an unprecedented low pressure, and his chest felt tight and painful.
Many collapsed houses, with homeless people scratching at the ruins, and corpses lying at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Do you want me to find someone to help?" The girl has lost weight these days, and her face is a little sallow.
"That's all, let's go to the village chief first, and we'll wait and see about other things." Bai Ling sighed softly, and the little girl cleverly asked for directions, while the coachman led the carriage and followed Bai Ling to protect her.
Some villagers who still had a chance to survive learned that Bai Ling and his party were looking for the village chief. Seeing that they were dressed like ordinary people and that they had carriages to transport them, they went to inform the village chief first.
However, the village chief and his son took the initiative to greet her. After seeing Bai Ling, they asked uncertainly: "I wonder who the girl is?"
"My master is the auspicious princess of the royal family. He has been out to provide disaster relief since New Year's Eve. He just happened to come to your village today." The girl replied happily.
"Princess Jixiang? But the Princess Jixiang who cured the plague?" the village chief shouted excitedly, causing a commotion among the villagers.
"Our village can be saved!"
"Yes, Princess Jixiang has good medical skills and is a kind person. We don't have to worry about not being able to survive."
The villagers kowtowed to Bai Ling and begged her to save the people in the village.
This was not the first time Bai Ling had been exposed to such a scene, but he was still worried.
It is not easy for poor people to support their families. Once they encounter natural or man-made disasters, they will have no way of survival.
But there are many people with good reputations in the world, but most of them are just trying to gain fame, and there are a few who can unconditionally save these ordinary people.
"Everyone, get up quickly. It's very cold on the ground, so don't get sick."
Bai Ling took a few steps forward, helped an old lady up, turned to the village chief and said:
"There are too many villages seriously affected by this snowstorm. I cannot treat every villager. I also asked the village chief to make arrangements to send the villagers with the most serious conditions to me for diagnosis and treatment. My father and my siblings are on the way to provide assistance.
The medicine and medicinal materials will be delivered later, and I ask the village chief to make arrangements first so that the villagers can survive for a few more days."
"Thank you, Princess. The Bai family is indeed a philanthropic family. I will call the villagers together to discuss what to do. Princess, you have had a hard journey along the way. Let's go to my house to rest first and see a doctor at my house. It's warm anyway.
If so, I will ask my mother-in-law to cook for the princess."
The village chief was so happy that he couldn't tell the priorities, so he could only say everything that came to his mind.
"Thank you very much, village chief." Bai Ling nodded.
The village chief immediately called on the two of them to lead Bai Ling, while he went to arrange other matters.
Originally Ben Tou was gone, but now Bai Ling's words made the whole village see the light of day.
The village chief's house is just a mud house with tiles on the roof, which shows how poor this village is.
Compared with the villages he passed before, there were more injuries here. Bai Ling could only treat those whose lives were in danger first, and then treat those with broken arms, legs or feet.
As for the other villagers, the little girl can see the doctor, and the situation is similar to the villagers I met before.
"I don't know when my family will be able to take care of this. The situation of these villagers will only become serious if it is delayed any longer. If treatment is not received in time, it will turn into... maybe a plague."
Bai Ling was afraid that talking about influenza would require too much explanation, so he explained it according to the sayings of this era.
The face of the village chief sitting at the bottom changed drastically, and he was obviously frightened.
"Please, Princess, please save the lives of the hundreds of people in our village!" The village chief stood up tremblingly and wanted to kowtow to Bai Ling.
Once there is a plague in a certain village, it will be controlled by the court. If it cannot be cured, the consequences will be to burn the village. How can the village chief not be afraid?
The coachman received Bai Ling's understanding and supported the village chief.
"I will try my best. The prescription has been written. The village chief will ask people to go to nearby towns to get the medicine." Bai Ling said.
"This..." the village chief asked awkwardly: "How much does the medicine cost?"
The village chief was ashamed, but his family only had a few taels of silver. Even if the villagers scraped together all the money, it might not be enough.
"The village chief only needs to send someone there, and I will leave the rest to Lao Wu."
After Bai Ling finished speaking, he said to Old Wu:
"After you go out, buy all the medicines that can treat wind and cold in all medical centers. I don't care what method you use, but you must send these medicines to nearby villages to try not to let the wind and cold turn into a plague. Take my post with you.
Visit the biggest local official and you can decide for yourself what to do.” (To be continued)
