The hope that Lu Annian ignited was quickly extinguished. Ruan Xiaonuan understood what he was feeling now, and comforted, "Although I don't know how to cure it, I know some ways to suppress it, but it can't be completely cured."

The majority of the plague was caused by the unsanitary conditions after the disaster, so as long as she used some rodenticide or insecticide-killing drugs and disinfected every place once, the situation would definitely be much better.

After Lu Annian found out about her method, he was about to return to the Da Ze County, but was stopped by Gu Junxiu, and said to him, "Master Lu, today is the day of your, the matters in the Da Ze County will be arranged by the county. You must stay in the Ya Mansion for now."

When he remembered that he was already a kungfu, since Gu Junxiu had said it like that, then he must have his own reasons. Thus, after exiting the residence, he went straight to the magistrate court.

After Lu Annian left, Ruan Xiaonuan tried to slip away quietly. But just as she reached the door, Gu Junxiu said, "Ruan Ruan, where do you want to go?"

Ruan Xiaonuan laughed in embarrassment, her head spinning quickly as she said in a serious tone, "Aren't we heading back to the capital? I'll keep packing. "

"There's no need to clean up. Now that we have such a strange disease, we won't be able to recover for a while." With a single word, he had rendered her excuse completely useless.

"How do you know all this?" Gu Junxiu asked immediately.

"I just heard it from someone else." Ruan Xiaonuan also didn't know if he could get away with this, but he didn't have any better answers now.

"Who told you that?" he asked.

Gu Junxiu knew that she came from another place, but he was completely unfamiliar with that place, so he wanted to understand a little more, wanting her to take the initiative and tell him everything.

But Ruan Xiaonuan didn't know what he was thinking, and kept it a secret. "I forgot."

He sighed lightly. He knew that she wouldn't tell him, so he didn't continue asking.

Seeing that, Ruan Xiaonuan heaved a sigh of relief, and left the place.

The outbreak of the plague in Jiang Chuan was quickly known by the capital. The imperial physicians in the palace had also never heard of this illness, and the other ministers knew nothing of it. He said with a worried expression, "That love letter has seen this disease before?"

Suddenly, Hua Qingse stood out and said to him, "Reporting to Your Majesty, this subject has heard of this disease."

"You know how to cure it?" Gu Qingcheng continued to ask.

Hua Qingse nodded her head, and took the initiative to say, "This subject asks to go to the river."

Since someone took the initiative to say that they wanted to go, Gu Qingcheng would of course agree. He even brought an imperial physician along with him as well as countless of medicinal herbs.

At this time, although the situation was as Ruan Xiaonuan planned, they were temporarily able to control it. However, there would still be people who would get infected. For a moment, everyone was panicking, afraid that the next person to suffer would be themselves.

Because the outbreak did not spread to the river, there was no defense. However, early in the morning, someone ran to the yamen and panted, "Sir, it's bad. A person infected with the plague appeared on the street just now."

had said the word plague. Not long after, everyone knew that this strange disease was called plague.

Lu Annian heard that the epidemic situation had spread to this place, and immediately followed him there. For people who were infected by the plague, he did not know what problems his body had. But he ate a lot of ointment and it didn't look good, so he thought about it.

The people here had also heard of the matters in the Great Swamp County, so they were all far away from him in fear, as if they would die if they stuck to him.

Lu Annian covered his nose and mouth, walking closer to the patient, he observed him carefully, it was indeed a plague. He had wanted to ask him where he had been, but the man had lost consciousness.

He could only reply to the surrounding people, "Do any of you know this person?"

No one spoke. It seemed like they did not know each other. Lu Annian frowned, thinking about what he should do to lessen the situation.

If anyone knew that he had been to those places for the past few days, they only needed to isolate them. But now, no one knew. Those people might be infected, but they didn't know it themselves. They went to other places and infected others. This situation was exactly the same as in Dashi County, was he going to repeat the same mistake?

Ruan Xiaonuan, who was in the palace, also heard of this and scolded her on the inside. However, it was useless. They didn't even know that those people were infected. This was the most dangerous situation they were in.

"Have people be on high alert at all times. If they see any symptoms, immediately isolate her." Gu Junxiu instructed calmly.

The temporary isolation zone was built outside the city. It was quite a distance away. Although keeping them away from their loved ones was a bit cruel, it was the safest option right now.

Ruan Xiaonuan suddenly thought of the people that died from the plague in Da Ze county, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and immediately asked: "Ah Xiu, how are the dead patients dealt with?"

"They should all be searching for a place to be buried together." Gu Junxiu replied.

The people here had never heard of cremation, so they must have just buried them. She forcefully clapped his hands and said, "Right, just like that. Why didn't I think of that before?"

"What's wrong?" Gu Junxiu asked curiously.

"Although they are already dead, their corpses can still infect the plague, so the best way is to burn someone's body and eliminate all possibility of doing so." Ruan Xiaonuan's words were once again shocking the world.

Because what she said was an insult to the body, a disrespect to the ancestors, and perhaps no one would agree.

"What would have happened if the body hadn't been burned?" Gu Junxiu asked.

Ruan Xiaonuan rolled her eyes at him. She had said it so clearly just now, why didn't he understand? She had no choice but to say, "If we don't burn it, the epidemic will never end, because the source of infection is always here."

"What is the source of the infection?" he asked curiously.

"Don't worry about that. You only need to know that if you don't burn them down, the plague will erupt at any time and anywhere. Unless the corpses are rotten and only the bones are left, then there won't be any threat." Ruan Xiaonuan accidentally said the modern vocabulary, but she didn't have the heart to explain, she only wanted him to believe what she had to say.

She knew what would happen if she cremated the corpses and her family members who were still alive. However, she couldn't care less about that now. It was fine as long as the outbreak could be mitigated.
