  Chapter 496 Romance

  The phone call from the worm is too inexplicable,

  Li Ang used the reason of maintaining law and order in the city to keep the members of the supervision department in the city on guard.

  I secretly dispatched Mosi's avatar, squatting in Yuan'an Square and surrounding markets all night, focusing on the big willow tree mentioned on the phone.

  At the hour of Chenzheng, a ragged beggar, holding a scone wrapped in oiled paper in one hand and a square package in the other, walked unsteadily to the big willow tree, and threw the package into the willow tree hole.

  ‘. Was it delivered by ordinary people? '

   Li Ang, who was located in the prefect's mansion, frowned slightly, and let Mosi's avatar that changed into a human form go out, stopped the beggar, took out fifty coins, and asked the other party who ordered him to do this.

  The answer he got did not surprise Li Ang.

  Last night, the beggar lying under the bridge was suddenly awakened by two strong men wearing masks.

  The two men gave the beggar a consistent amount of money, and gave him a package, asking him to deliver the package to the big willow tree in Yuan'an Square at this time today.

  If the beggar fails to do so, or opens the package in advance without permission,

   Then they will come to the door to settle accounts.

  Li Ang thought for a moment, then manipulated Mosi's clone and asked, "These two strong men, do you have any characteristics? Such as hair, tattoos, scars, etc."

   "I don't see clearly,"

  The beggar shook his head, "It's too dark, I just think those two people speak strangely, not like people from Yu country."

   "That's it."

  Li Ang was a little disappointed, there was too little information, and he couldn't guess anything. He casually handed fifty coins to the beggar, and waved his hand to indicate that the beggar could leave.

   Unexpectedly, the beggar was still standing where he was, with a flattering face.

  Mosi clone frowned and said, "What else?"

  The beggar flattered: "The two said that if someone stopped me after I delivered the package, I would ask him for another ten pennies as the final payment."

"Ah."

   Li Ang smiled, took out an ingot of gold from his arms, and under the staring gaze of the beggar, he picked off a small piece and threw it to the beggar.

  The beggar bit the pancake, caught a small piece of gold with both hands, bowed his head thankfully, and quickly threw it away.

   Li Ang asked other Mosi to secretly catch up with the beggar, and continued to monitor,

  While controlling Mosi's avatar to walk towards the willow tree, he took out the package from the tree hole.

  The package is quite heavy in the hand, and when you shake it, you can hear the sound of things shaking inside.

   Li Ang asked Mosi to carry the package all the way to a secluded place. After opening it, he found a wooden box with a seal inside.

  He tore off the seal and opened the wooden box, which contained a book.

   ""Plague Ghost Talisman Illustrated Record"?"

   Li Ang raised his eyebrows in surprise. This book is plainly bound, without any information about the author or the year it was written. It looks like it was printed privately.

  The content of the book records in detail the ins and outs of the plague ghost talisman, the different plague ghost talismans corresponding to different diseases, and how to use the corresponding talisman to counter it.

  “.”

   The more you read, the more Mosi's avatar frowned.

  He had previously contacted the school through the worm, and confirmed that even in the school, there was no such detailed information on the Plague Ghost Talisman.

  Especially the part about the Plague Plague Talisman in the book is almost as if the inventor wrote it himself.

   "The people of the Wang clan said that the Plague Ghost Talisman was invented by Zhao Ming Situ Zhi before he was arrested, and it was sent by Yu Shi, Situ Zhi's disciple.

  The content of this book is so detailed, I am afraid it was not written by Situ Zhi himself.

  Combined with the conversation in yesterday's worm newsletter, could it be that this book was sent by the forces that robbed Situ Zhi?

   But what purpose are they serving?

  With this book, next time Zhaoming uses the Plague Ghost Talisman to make trouble again, Yu State will at least have countermeasures.”

  Mosi's avatar rubbed her chin, but couldn't figure out the reason, so she could only put away her books and escape underground.

  ——

  Eighteen days later, as the second batch of plague patients cured by streptomycin left the isolation ward, Taiyuan Prefecture finally loosened the closure of the city and resumed communication with other state capitals.

  The wards in various places are diligently producing streptomycin according to the streptomyces spores sent by Li Ang. I believe that this plague will soon be completely over.

  Li Ang, who had completed his mission, returned to Chang'an by locomotive with Li Leling, Qiu Feng and others, and Mian Sheng accepted the award.

  All those who have contributed to the plague disaster, according to their contributions, were either knighted, rewarded, or promoted.

  All the medical staff, soldiers and servants who unfortunately died or were injured, and their families and relatives will receive government subsidies every year for the next seventy years.

  A large part of this money comes from the compensation of Taiyuan Wang,

   Li Ang will keep a close eye on this money, and ensure that it can be distributed to every family, so as to prevent corruption from being lost out of thin air.

  As for the Taiyuan prefect,

  It is a fact that he has worked hard, and it is also a fact that he is powerless against the corruption of the Taiyuan government.

  Considering that Li Leling almost died of the plague in the prefect's mansion, the angry Emperor Yu directly demoted the prefect's official and told him to go down to the county for milling.

   As for how long it will last, it all depends on Emperor Yu's mood.

   When the rewards and punishments were settled, Li Ang also found an opportunity to hand over the "Plague and Ghost Talisman Illustrated Record" to Chen Danqiu.

   And said his guess.

  Chen Danqiu was also puzzled by the sudden appearance of a third-party force. After thinking about it for a long time, he asked Li Ang to pretend that nothing happened.

  He will ask Dr. Xuegong to study the "Plague and Ghost Talisman Illustrated Record" secretly, so as to guard against another attack by Zhaoming in the future,

   And asked the monks of the Supervision Department to investigate Situ Zhi's whereabouts.

  As for Li Ang himself, he took the carriage happily and returned to the Jinchengfang mansion, opened the door with one palm, and shouted: "I'm back!"

   "Master!"

  Chai Chai, who was sitting in the hall writing something, jumped up excitedly, trotted over and jumped into Li Ang's arms, and then reached out to grab the package that Li Ang was carrying.

   "Don't touch your hands as soon as you come up?"

   Li Ang rolled his eyes, but still opened the package, and took out the special products he brought back from Taiyuan Mansion. Pasta, desserts and the like.

   "There are two bags of mutton frozen with Li Liang Talisman in the package, and they will be put in the refrigerator later."

   Li Ang said casually, walked into the hall, caught a glimpse of the stack of papers left by Chai Chai on the table, "Huh? What is this?"

  He glanced at it, and saw that it turned out to be a romance novel, and the heroine was named "Li Yingshang".

   "Wow, ah, ah, don't look!"

  Chai Chai, who was picking desserts, noticed Li Ang's movements, and didn't even bother to eat, blushing, screaming, and pounced on Li Ang, trying to cover Li Ang's eyes with his palms.

  However, it was still too late, Li Ang glanced at ten lines, and involuntarily read half of the content on the paper.

  This "Li Yingshang" comes from a noble background, and she is so powerful that everyone who sees her can't help but bow down under her pomegranate skirt.

   According to the half-written text on the paper, it turned out to be written by Chai Chai himself.
