Chapter 15 The famous wandering doctor

Next, Zhao Qiankun spent a few days in continuous improvement and experiments. After poisoning more than 20 infected villagers, he brought them back to life, and finally gave birth to herbs that were just as toxic and made a perfect anti-plague potion!

Zhao Qiankun asked the villagers for a big pot, steamed herbs at the entrance of the village, boiled a large pot of medicinal soup, and added a red fruit to replenish people's vitality.

The villagers drank the medicine soup and felt numb and itchy all over, but the pain caused by the plague was greatly reduced.

According to this progress, as long as you take it every day, you will be cured in a few days... Zhao Qiankun left them enough herbs and red fruits, taught them how to cook the medicinal soup, and left with confidence.

Next, Zhao Qiankun rode his horse and began wandering around the Aoun Empire. While inquiring about news about Joan of Arc and Heerro, he also treated the affected refugees. The treatment method was simple and crude. He directly gave birth to a large number of improved herbs, and then left a few red fruits, taught the villagers how to boil medicine, and left for the next place. If he encountered a town with a large population, the weight would be increased. In short, the patients improved wherever Zhao Qiankun passed. The reputation of a wandering doctor who eliminated the plague was also spread in the Aoun Empire.

To be honest, Zhao Qiankun himself knew that the plague had lost its contagion and would soon be calmed without his actions. What he did was just to save the victims who had been infected and were waiting to die. But the people did not understand the truth, and they only thought that his herbs defeated the plague and praised his reputation one after another. Sometimes, his reputation even surpassed the brave and Joan of Arc. After all, although the latter also helped the civilians, they were helpless against the plague. They were more helpless to help the civilians fight against the tyranny of the Aoun nobles.

Needless to say which one is more terrifying, harsh, is more terrifying...

Just as Zhao Qiankun was hanging everywhere to save the world, Haierro and Joan of Arc were stationed in the Acropolis fifteen kilometers northeast of Orn City, the capital of Orn Empire.

They had already ended their days of being chased by Orn's army and hiding from all over the world. After the Lion Heart Empire's army invaded, they quickly joined the army. They obtained supplies and the wounded were treated.

However, Haierro and Joan of Arc did not return to the country to cultivate themselves, nor did they participate in the war to conquer Aoun. On the contrary, although they followed the army, they played a counter-effect.

They did not resist the Lionheart army head-on, but they restricted them from harassing civilians, torture and killing prisoners of war, and restricted the mages from using large-scale spells to avoid destroying mountains, forests and fields. When encountering battles, they also worked to mediate and persuade the Orn Emperor team to surrender. After all, there was a gap in national strength between the two countries. Now that the Orn Plague is raging, facing the overwhelming Lionheart Empire, there is no power to fight back. This is not a war at all, but a unilateral massacre.

As a Paladin, Joan of Arc was deeply opposed to war, but what the Aunn nobles did was really unforgivable.

Although war is against morality, she would not mind using force if innocent civilians could be rescued from tyranny.

The Lionheart army had surrounded Ornn a few days ago. According to the aristocrats, they should have prepared to siege battle immediately to completely end the war. However, Heilro and Joan of Arc disagreed.

As the capital of the Orn Empire, one of the six empires, although Orn City is not as large as Karentis, it is still a city with complete city defense and towering walls. To conquer this place, it will inevitably cost a heavy price. Not only the soldiers guarding the city, but even the Lionheart army that attacks the city will suffer heavy losses.

Therefore, as contemporary brave men and members of the Lionheart royal family, Haierro and Joan of Arc represented the Lionheart army and negotiated with the Aon royal family.

Of course, the old king of Aon did not dare to negotiate face to face with the two super strong men. Under the escort of Paladin Earl Ford and King Warrior Glass, Emperor Aon stood at the top of the city and shouted to Yaoyao, the two strong men under the city.

As a result, King Orn denounced the Lion Heart Empire for being treasonous and stabbed the knife in the back while the Orn Empire was weak, and was a despicable invader.

When talking about the word invasion, Joan of Delton felt dull. At least on this level, the old king did not scold him wrong. However, the brave Heilro, who was standing beside him, argued, and listed the various evil deeds of the nobles and army of the Orn Empire to exploit the people: "We come here not to seize the country, but to save innocent people!"

"Nonsense!" The old king was so angry that his face turned red: "My Orn Empire has always been rigorous in governing the army and punished the bullying of the people very heavily. How could there be such a team of corrupt disciplines!"

Speaking of this, Joan of Arc also became angry: "This is what we have seen with our own eyes. Aoun's grain collection army forced the grain and grass, regardless of the lives of the people!"

"All nonsense!" King Orn frowned: "We Orn, like you, Lionheart, are all nobles and vassals. The lords requisition themselves for the grain taxes in various places. How can there be any special grain collector army?"

Joan of Arc frowned when she heard this. She thought that the grain collection army was a temporary organization formed by the plague. According to this, even the king did not know the existence of the grain collection army. Is there something else in it?

She was about to ask in detail, but Heerro shouted first: "Don't make unnecessary excuses anymore. Half of the nobles in your territory have surrendered, just because we promised to retain their territory and titles after capturing Aoun. The nobles are still nobles, but they have gone from being loyal to you to being loyal to the great Reinhardt! You have no chance, surrender quickly!"

"This group of ungrateful bastards!" Hearing this news, Emperor Aoun cursed angrily: "Even if only our royal army is left, we will defend this city until you damn northerners are punished by God!"

After saying that, King Orn refused to continue negotiations with them, and showed off his crossbows to threaten Joan of Arc and Heilro away from the city walls.

After returning from Orn City, Joan of Arc always felt something was wrong. She felt that the old king did not seem to be lying. Is there really a problem with the corrupt grain collection army?

Just when she was confused, Heerro found her and comforted her: "Don't worry. In this situation, people will find words that are beneficial to themselves. Naturally, the old king will not admit that it was his own cruelty that caused the destruction of the country. When we conquered the city of Orn, rescued millions of suffering civilians, and were fair and free in the hearts of the people."
