Chapter 573: Chapter 281: Xiba, this Divine Grace is really strong!_1

"Cough, cough!"

Hua Yue Yu was coughing lightly; when she heard these words, she became so frightened that her coughing stopped, not daring to breathe. However, after pausing for a few seconds, she started coughing again, and it was even more severe.

"Little White, cough!"

Hua Yue Yu was very nervous, her little face flushed red.

Having followed Lin Baici into God’s ruins, she had prepared herself mentally to experience the horrors of rule contamination, severe injuries, and even death, but to die from a plague?

What a damned unlucky day!

Hua Yue Yu felt this was so unfair.

"Don’t panic!"

Lin Baici patted Hua Yue Yu’s head and looked at the big bearded man, "Since you guys can’t do anything anyway, why not let me give it a try?"

The officials and soldiers covered their mouths with a piece of cloth that emitted a sour smell, which was probably boiled with vinegar to prevent the plague.

The big bearded man hesitated.

The epidemic began seven days ago; although it hadn’t been long, many people had died. It was said that some villages had been wiped out entirely.

The Big Doctor’s hometown had also been hit by the plague the day before yesterday. He had rushed back overnight and had not been heard from since; the situation was presumably grim.

"Do you really have a solution?"

The big bearded man was preparing to grasp at straws.

"Yes!"

The answer from Lin Baici was decisive.

"Come, follow me to see the Prefectural Governor!"

The big bearded man led the way, and the officials and soldiers put away their weapons, but they stayed in front and behind to ensure they could intercept these people instantly if they attempted to escape.

The Prefectural Governor, Zhao Decheng, was the highest official in Shangqing Mansion.

When the big bearded man came to report, Governor Zhao was commanding his servants to pack his bags, which caused the big bearded man’s expression to change, "Governor, you are..."

"Ahem, my mother is seriously ill, and I must go back to check on her!"

Governor Zhao made an attempt to sound calm with his explanation, but in reality, he wanted to flee. The plague in Shangqing Mansion was too severe, and he feared he would die if he didn’t leave.

"Governor, if you go, what will become of the common people of Shangqing Mansion?"

Anger tinged the big bearded man’s voice.

"How dare you! Are you teaching me how to conduct my business?"

Governor Zhao scolded, "Would you have me, a son, not even see my dying mother for the last time? That would be gravely unfilial!"

The big bearded man knew he couldn’t persuade Governor Zhao and sighed inwardly, quickly informing him of Lin Baici’s group.

"What? Someone says they can cure this epidemic?"

Governor Zhao was excited, "Quick, go find... invite them here!"

If the epidemic could be eliminated, Governor Zhao wouldn’t need to flee, and it would be a great achievement for him.

Shortly after, Lin Baici, Xia Hongyao, and Gu Qingqiu entered the hall. Quan Sangin brought along Kim Jinsoo, while the others waited outside.

Zhao Decheng changed into his official uniform and was pondering whether to treat his guests with respectful humility or to show his authority and teach them a lesson, when he saw the tall and well-built man and two women walk in.

The man at the front had a handsome face, broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and despite his obviously strange clothing, it complemented his demeanor.

This man is too tall, isn’t he?

When the man looked over, Zhao Decheng felt a tremendous sense of oppression, as if facing heavenly soldiers!

The next second, Zhao Decheng’s gaze shifted to Xia Hongyao and Jin Yingzhen by Lin Baici’s side, then he wasn’t sure where to look next!

Because he wanted to look at both, not even willing to waste the time blinking.

So beautiful!

In the end, Governor Zhao chose Jin Yingzhen.

Xia Hongyao wore loose sportswear, with a large chest that didn’t meet Governor Zhao’s aesthetic; Jin Yingzhen was more attractive to him.

Her tight jeans wrapped snugly around her long legs, showcasing every curve, and she wore high boots on her feet, with a blue off-the-shoulder sweater on top.

"This is absolutely corrupting to morals!"

Governor Zhao inwardly cursed, but he could not take his eyes off her, and he immediately decided to have the dancing girls all dressed in such clothing.

"From which heavenly realm do the three of you hail?"

Governor Zhao couldn’t help but stand up; the visitors’ appearances were too astonishing. Although they didn’t look like hermits of high virtue, they were not to be underestimated.

"I come from the heavens!"

Lin Baici said with a slight smile.

Governor Zhao didn’t believe it. Judging by the man’s facial features, he looked like a citizen of the Ming country, but his stature was too tall. And as for the Japanese, there was no way such a valiant man and beautiful women could come from that land of small people.

"Please, take a seat!"

Zhao Decheng invited, "Servants, bring tea!"

"..."

Quan Sangin was displeased because he and Kim Jinsoo had been ignored.

However, he admitted that in terms of personal appearance, the members of Lin Baici’s group were indeed highly impressive.

Forget it, just endure it!

Both parties took their seats and exchanged names.

Upon hearing the names of the three, including Jin Yingzhen, Zhao Decheng was somewhat shocked, "Natives of this country?"

Jin Yingzhen nodded indifferently; she didn’t like the Prefectural Governor.

She had observed earlier that apart from the epidemic, the entire city was falling apart, impoverished, and the people on the streets were all emaciated. Even the officials and soldiers lacked vitality and obviously suffered from malnutrition, yet this Prefectural Governor was a fat man, and from the looks of it, he was very likely incompetent and foolish.

"Can you indeed eradicate this plague?"

Governor Zhao stared into Lin Baici’s eyes and asked. This man was clearly the leader of the group.

"I’m seventy percent sure!"

Lin Baici didn’t make any guarantees.

"How long will it take?"

Zhao Decheng glanced at Jin Yingzhen and thought, if they can’t do it, I’ll throw them in prison and accuse them of crimes. I’ll keep this woman for myself, and the other, I’ll offer to the King.

Thinking this, Zhao Decheng felt somewhat upset because, at around 1.60 meters tall, even on tiptoes, he couldn’t kiss Jin Yingzhen.

"We need to conduct research first to know for sure. The immediate goal is to find Li God Doctor; I need his current knowledge on the situation!"
