Chapter 8 Plague, Poison

Li Linxiang stayed in Guanjia Town for nearly a month, just to wait for Xiao Yu to show her heart. Now that her heart is clear, she left Guanjia Town with Zhang Zhaozhong, Shen Li and others at dawn.

Although Xiao Yu took the agreement between him and Li Linxiang in mind, she would not do anything bold because of an agreement.

Three years is not a long time, but it is not short. Perhaps after three years, Li Linxiang has other attention in his heart, and Xiao Yu naturally does not have to abide by the agreement.

After Li Linxiang and others left, Xiao Yu stayed in the Blood Tiger Camp with the Blood Tiger Guards for seven days and then entered Hezui Mountain again.

This time, Xiao Yu is going to refine a batch of new blood tiger bows.

When Xiao Yu built a blood tiger bow in the ground fire, more than 30,000 people infected with the plague appeared overnight outside the Xifeng Pass, which was located in the north of Xiye City.

Xifeng Pass is just an ordinary pass. Xiao Yu's purpose is only to monitor the remnants of Fu Mingshan.

When Liu Qingshan was ordered to guard the Xifeng Pass, Xiao Yu once told him that if the remnants of Fu Mingshan attacked the Xifeng Pass, they would directly give up the Xifeng Pass.

This time, it was not the remnants of Fu Mingshan who brought the crisis to Xifeng Pass, but a group of ordinary people infected with the plague.

If Liu Qingshan gives up the Xifeng Pass at this time, these people infected with the plague will definitely spread the plague to the people in the Xifeng Pass.

Therefore, although Liu Qingshan was a little afraid of the plague, he did not dare to give up the West Wind Pass.

While ordering the soldiers to guard the gate, Liu Qingshan quickly sent someone to pass on the situation before the Xifeng Pass to Xiao Yu.

The people sent by Liu Qingshan have not yet arrived in Guanjia Town. Xia Yu, who secretly guarded Guanjia Town for Xiao Yu, has learned about what happened outside the Xifeng Pass from Hawkeye.

Although Xia Yu has never experienced the plague, he also knows the horror of the plague.

As soon as he got the news from Hawkeye, Xia Yu came out of the fire as quickly as possible.

Xiao Yu has a red lotus on the ground, and any change in the ground fire is very **. Although he focused most of his attention on the construction of the bow, as soon as Xia Yu appeared, he immediately noticed it.

"Has any change happened?"

Xiao Yu frowned gently and controlled the fire red lotus to separate a passage between him and Xia Yu.

Xia Yu did not enter the fire. As soon as he saw Xiao Yu, he told Xiao Yu what happened outside the Xifeng Pass.

"Plague?"

Hearing that more than 30,000 people infected with the plague appeared outside the Xifeng Pass, Xiao Yu's heart couldn't help sinking.

Xiao Yu didn't think much about it, so she directly put the unmade bow body together with the black jade anvil and black jade hammer into the Xumi pearl.

After coming outside with Xia Yu, Xiao Yu stared at the direction of Xifeng Pass and pondered for a moment. She said to Xia Yu in a low voice, "Since those people infected with the plague came from the west of Xifeng Pass, this plague is likely to be related to the remnants of Fu Mingshan. Please go to Liancheng to have a look."

"Uh-huh!"

Xia Yu answered and turned into a bloody crow and disappeared.

Since the people sent by Liu Qingshan had not yet arrived in Guanjia Town, there was no tense atmosphere in the general's mansion when Xiao Yu returned to the general's mansion.

As soon as she returned to the general's mansion, Xiao Yu sent people to call Tang Yuansong, Tang Qingyun, Cheng Qian and others to the council chamber of the general's mansion.

After sweeping around the crowd, Xiao Yu first asked Tang Yuansong, "How much does Elder Tang know about the plague?"

"Plague?"

Tang Yuansong looked at Xiao Yu with some surprise, thought for a while, and muttered, "Plague is a terrible disaster caused by the epidemic, which is usually accompanied by natural and man-made disasters. If the sting of the plague is too strong, a plague will cause more harm than the disaster of war.

"Can the plague be deliberately caused by people?"

"As long as the plague that can be transmitted by people can be refined, it is not impossible to cause a plague. However, few people have dared to do this kind of thing that has been punished by God since ancient times.

After replying to Xiao Yu, Tang Yuansong asked tentatively, "The general suddenly asked about the plague. Is there a plague somewhere now?"

Seeing Xiao Yu nodding, Tang Yuansong and others' faces changed.

"The most terrible thing about the plague is not the plague itself, but in those who have been infected with the plague. If they can't find a way to deal with the plague as soon as possible, many of those who have no hope of life will do some crazy things that they usually don't even think about."

"What Elder Tang said is right. We must find a solution to the plague as soon as possible."

Replying to Tang Yuansong, Xiao Yu stared at the people in front of Cheng and said in a low voice, "After Ben and Elder Tang and others left Guanjia Town, you must not relax the training of soldiers. This plague may be related to the remnants of Fu Mingshan, but you can rest assured that you will have your own way to deal with the changes.

"I will obey your orders!"

"Hmm! You guys go down first!"

After Cheng Qian and others left, Xiao Yu looked at Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun and said in a low voice, "The disaster of the plague this time needs to be overcome by two people. If you need anything, you can say it now. If you can do it, Xiao will definitely not have any excuse."

"It's our honor to help the general. What are the requirements? When the general leaves, we can start with the general.

"If you don't have any preparation, let's go now."

Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun looked at each other and nodded together.

Xifeng Pass is 780 miles away from Guanjia Town. In Yunshan County, a place with complex terrain, even elites like Blood Tiger Guard will take six or seven days to complete this journey.

In order to get to Xifeng Pass as soon as possible, after leaving Guanjia Town, Xiao Yu separated with Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun and Sanqian Blood Tiger Guards.

With Tang Qingyun, Xiao Yu naturally can't show the fastest speed.

It took about nine hours for Xiao Yu to take Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun to Xifeng Pass.

Xiao Yu, Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun came to Xifeng Pass just after noon, but there was no pedestrian on the street of Xifeng Pass.

All stores are closed, as if there is something terrible on the street.

Before Xiao Yu, Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun reached the west gate, Liu Qingshan greeted them with 30 soldiers.

From the blood in Liu Qingshan's eyes and the unconcealable fatigue on his face, Xiao Yu can guess how much pressure Liu Qingshan's heart is.

"See you, General!"

"Don't be polite!"

After Xiao Yu helped Liu Qingshan up, Liu Qingshan led Xiao Yu and the others to the west gate and told the situation outside the west gate in short words.

As Tang Yuansong said, when those infected with the plague feel that there is no way to live, they will do something crazy.

Liu Qingshan did not allow those people infected with the plague to enter the city. Those unarmed people began to attack the gate after begging for a while.

With no command, those ordinary people certainly can't break through the gate in a short time.

Those people can't enrich the city gate, but they can spread the plague on their bodies to the Xifeng Pass.

At this time, the soldiers who first guarded the gate in front of the gate and some of the soldiers on the wall were infected with the plague.

People are afraid of the plague, and the soldiers under Liu Qingshan will naturally be no exception.

Now the military heart in the Xifeng Pass is unstable, and Liu Qingshan himself does not know when his soldiers will riot because of the plague.

"Qingshan couldn't take good care of the Xifeng Pass for the general. Please punish him!"

"You have done a good job!"

Xiao Yu patted Liu Qingshan on the shoulder and looked at Liu Qingshan and said in a low voice, "Since some of the soldiers have been infected with the plague, let's go to see those soldiers infected with the plague first!"

"Yes!"

After a while, Xiao Yu and others followed Liu Qingshan to a small military camp.

At this time, there are more than 120 soldiers infected with the plague in this barracks, while the soldiers guarding in front of the barracks are monitoring the soldiers with long guns, bows and arrows.

Although the soldiers under surveillance have not yet rioted, from their restless look, Xiao Yu knew that these things could not be tolerated for a long time.

As long as there is no mental problem, we all understand that when the plague appears, anxious riots are useless. However, once there is a plague, it will inevitably be accompanied by riots.

Everyone has a selfish side in their hearts. At the critical moment of life and death, the selfishness in many people's hearts often turns into madness.

Although these soldiers only saw Xiao Yu once, they all remembered Xiao Yu's appearance and knew that the young man in white who appeared in the barracks at this time was their main general.

As soon as they saw Xiao Yu, most of the anxiety on the faces of these soldiers disappeared in an instant.

Subconsciously, these soldiers felt that Xiao Yu could save them.

Xiao Yu first stared at each soldier's face for a moment, and then said in a low voice to these soldiers with a hopeful face, "I will guarantee with the flag of the general, and I will not give up any of you."

"I swear to be loyal to the general!"

Xiao Yu nodded and said in a low voice to the soldiers, "I will find a solution to the plague as soon as possible, and I hope you don't make any impulsive actions. Once the plague expands, even if it will find a solution to the plague, it may not be able to help everyone treat the plague.

These soldiers will not listen to Liu Qingshan's words without knowing whether they will live or die tomorrow, but they have some trust in Xiao Yu's words.

As soon as Xiao Yu's words fell, the soldiers spontaneously lined up in a neat line.

"Ep Elder Tang, Miss Tang, please come and help them have a look."

"Yes!"

With an answer, Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun came to the soldiers.

On the surface, compared with normal people, the faces of the soldiers infected with the plague are red and their lips are blue, and they have become very irritable.

In addition to the superficial characteristics, if you look carefully, you will find that the hands of these soldiers are constantly shaking slightly.

Tang Yuansong and Tang Qingyun checked the situation of more than a dozen soldiers in a row before returning to Xiao Yu with a solemn face.

"General, this plague is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster."

"A man-made disaster?"

Tang Qingyun nodded and said in a low voice, "This plague was definitely caused by poison."
