In the end, only two people died in the Lou Mansion, Lou Xiaoyi who survived and Ping An, who was invulnerable to all poisons!
Lou Xiaoyi insists on going to the streets every day, telling everyone about his epidemic experience one by one along the street, telling everyone to ventilate frequently, wash hands frequently, and not to gather, even though in most cases he will be kicked out by the residents and thrown out. Bricks, stones and tiles were thrown all over the place.
The only thing they didn't dare to do was to get too close to him for fear of contracting this terrible epidemic. The most common words they left him were,
"Lou Fugen, why don't you die? You have killed so many people and you should not be living in this world for a long time! Shouldn't you give everyone an explanation? Shouldn't you go underground to accompany your mother? How can you Do you still have the nerve to talk nonsense on the street and continue to harm people?"
But these cannot stop Lou Xiaoyi. At night, he will go back to the tomb-like Lou Mansion to rest, and then come out during the day to continue explaining to everyone how to avoid contracting the epidemic.
Looking at the loyal Ping An, Lou Xiaoyi asked, "Do you also think I deserve to die?"
Ping An promised, "Master, it's not like this... I just feel too lonely and lifeless. Everyone has left... It's not you who deserve to die, but all of us deserve to die!"
Ping An’s family, including his mother, wife and several children... The reason why I still follow Lou Xiaoyi is because of the deep-rooted habits developed over decades, not because I think I should do so!
The Lou Mansion was empty, and soon after, Pucheng was almost empty! Because of the limited execution ability of this world dynasty and its indolence in the early stages of the epidemic, the epidemic was not able to be controlled in the end, and began to spread around Pucheng.
Maybe one day, it will spread to the entire Zhaoye Kingdom and the entire continent!
Ten rooms in Pucheng are empty, and the remaining people have nowhere to deal with it. There are no targeted drugs or effective methods, so they can only rely on their own bodies to survive!
Funerals were held every day, and no one cared about such things anymore. They were wrapped in straw mats and buried hastily.
There is no hope, no future in sight, and the belated ban prevents the people of Pucheng from leaving Pucheng even half a step. But in fact, the remaining people have acquired immunity and are the strong ones under the survival of the fittest nature.
There is no way to explain this to them, because no one listens to him even with the most basic knowledge on epidemic prevention!
The only thing these surviving people can do is to direct their anger at the first person infected - Lou Xiaoyi! Everyone unanimously asked him to commit suicide and apologize to express the anger of the people. The few remaining official figures probably had the same intention, and they even Not bothering to cover up, everyone looked at Lou Xiaoyi with the same look: Why don't you die?
In Lou Mansion, Lou Xiaoyi and Ping An were eating pancakes. Their food reserves were running low!
"Ping An, do you think I am a kind person, young master?" Lou Xiaoyi swallowed the pancake in small sips. This was the first experience for him as a second generation, and I am afraid he will not be able to avoid it in his future life.
Ping An cried sadly, "Of course you are, Master! Ever since you were a child! Always!"
Lou Xiaoyi asked: "Should kind people die?"
Ping An was speechless. He was now a walking corpse, showing no interest in anything, until one day he fell down like everyone else.
Lou Xiaoyi said to himself, “When the epidemic comes, no one wants to do this!
Everyone says that it was me, Lou Xiaoyi, who brought the disaster to this city! Maybe! But without me, wouldn’t the epidemic have appeared?
No, it will still happen! This has nothing to do with any individual! It is the choice of nature, which is telling us that it is time to make changes in some aspects!”
It doesn’t matter whether Ping An understands or not, the most important thing is for his own venting.
“My mother taught me to be kind since I was a child! I have always done the same and never give up any opportunity to prove my kindness!
But I want to tell you, God is watching what people do, and there needs to be a limit to doing evil!
Kindness also has limits!"
Lou Xiaoyi was almost roaring, "I will not shoulder responsibilities that should not be mine just to satisfy other people's wishes, even the wishes of the vast majority of people!
This is not a question of kindness or not! This is a question of principles of being a human being!
Just because I have a good heart cannot be an excuse for them to make groundless accusations!
Not to mention Lou Mansion, Pucheng, even if everyone in the world thinks that Young Master deserves to die, I will not die either!"
That’s what Lou Xiaoyi said, and he did the same!
At that time, when the epidemic spread in Zhaoye Kingdom, the closure of Pucheng was in vain. Lou Xiaoyi left the place where he was born and raised, carrying the thirteen secret books and his only loyal servant Ping An, and walked out of Pucheng.
city.
Everywhere he goes, he will spare no effort to spread his methods to others, and he will never hide his identity. Even though the legend that the former Sima Lou Mansion is the source of the epidemic has spread throughout Zhaoye Kingdom, he still goes his own way calmly.
.
Until he walked all the way to Zhaoye City, his efforts had little effect on the spread of the epidemic. In front of nature, human beings looked so insignificant, especially a person with no power or special powers!
The gates of Zhaoye City were closed tightly, refusing his entry!
A Taoist man stood at the top of the city and shouted sternly: "Junior of the Lou family! You are infected by the epidemic, but you still dare to walk around and pollute the four directions. Aren't you afraid of punishment from heaven and divine thunder?"
Lou Xiaoyi still calmly said, "Taoist Master, you are a cultivator, and you should understand the reasons for this better than ordinary people! This cannot be done by a single person, let alone a mere mortal, even a cultivator may not be able to do it! Since
If so, why do you have to follow others' opinions and be aggressive?"
The Taoist shouted: "Because I know, I am advising you here! People's hearts tend to follow the trend, regardless of right or wrong! If you commit suicide here, at least you can get rid of the inner demons of everyone in the world. If you have hope, you can
It will ignite their desire to survive, and there are countless people alive. This principle is not difficult to understand. You, a well-educated person, still can't figure it out?"
Lou Xiaoyi looked at him and said, "I can die! For example, Taoist Master, you can kill me now!"
But I will not commit suicide! This is not in line with my philosophy of life!"
The Taoist shouted angrily, "You don't want to die, but tens of thousands of people live, and you don't want to?"
Lou Xiaoyi shook his head, "This is a paradox! As heaven moves forward, people should strengthen themselves! If only my death can arouse some people's desire to survive, then it doesn't matter if they don't live!"
The Taoist's voice is like thunder, "I know you are good at Taoism and have the heart to practice. Then you should know the theory of reincarnation of my practitioners! If you do great good now, you will be able to stand out in the next reincarnation and achieve something! On the contrary, evil retribution will accrue to you.
Cause and effect are entangled, let alone reincarnation, even your Lou family bloodline may not be able to continue!
Wouldn’t you like this too?”
Lou Xiaoyi said seriously, "I don't want to!"
Behind him, Ping An cried out sadly. He could no longer bear such pressure. Maybe the young master could do it, but he couldn't!
A short dagger entered his heart, and he sat down slowly, "Master, you have gone to the underworld, and I will continue to serve you safely!"
The Taoist incarnates as a celestial phenomenon, "Everyone in the world has despised you, but you still persist in your stubbornness and survive in this world?"
Lou Xiaoyi looked at him coldly, "Don't say I didn't let the world down, then I really did. So what?"
In an instant, the world collapsed, Ping An turned into a clown struggling on the ground, and the plague factors in the sky disappeared without a trace...
