"Go to Yujiang." Luo Xiyao snorted, "That old fox of Emperor Dongqi is still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai in the middle of the capital! Little did we know that we saw the problem from the number of soldiers and horses in the West Camp, so we were not fooled. When we arrived in Yujiang, we sent The horses and horses that Princess Ronghui hid in the belly of the mountain have been taken away, and the horses of Emperor Dongqi will be taken away to see if he can still hold on!"

After eating and drinking enough, the fat man put out the fire and disposed of the bones and furs they discarded before boarding the carriage to drive.

Now they only have one carriage left. Fortunately, there are enough horses, even if there are two horses, it is not bad.

After all, he is on the run, isn't he?

"that……"

"Huh?" Luo Xiyao flew on the horse. Although she couldn't fly over the roof and wall, after practicing martial arts these few days, she got on the horse with a lot of lightness, with an eye-catching chicness.Not knowing what Helan Linzhang was going to do, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "What are you talking about?"

What and what?How can he hesitate?He just thought of one thing and was worried that she might misunderstand.

Luo Xiyao rode to his side, "Is there any secret you want to tell me?"

He Lan Linzhang said helplessly: "I just remembered one thing. I haven't seen you delivering food to the carriage for two days..."

"Doctor Ding said it's best not to wake up Lao He." After the establishment of the palace, it's hard to call him Butler He, so Luo Xiyao followed Helan Linzhang to call him Lao He, "As long as I change out the Gu worms every day to use them." Feed Gu with blood mixed with nematode eggs, and when the Gu worms return to Lao He’s body, they can feed back to him. Because no matter how careful he is, he will always have to move twice after waking up, which is not very good for his recovery.”

"Did you forget that besides Lao He and Dr. Ding, there was another person in the carriage?"

Luo Xiyao parted her lips in surprise, "Oh, I forgot about Ning Xin."

When delivering food to Lao He, she would also give Ning Xin a sip, but now as long as she opens the window outside the carriage, she can attract the Gu worms on Lao He's body, so she forgot about delivering food to Ning Xin .

"Maybe, maybe... Doctor Ding will give Ning Xin a few needles. She hasn't woken up, so she shouldn't be very hungry."

Helan Linzhang looked at her quietly on the horse, "I don't care about Ning Xin's life or death. Even if she is dead, the Emperor Dongqi will not do anything to us. At most, he will issue an announcement to inform the world of the evil we have done. Let me remind you, all I care about is your thoughts, I don't know if Ning Xin is still useful to you."

"It's useful." Luo Xiyao said softly, "Ning Xin is very similar to Empress Dowager Yang. They are stupid people who don't know it. They think they are extremely smart but also ambitious. Such a person will succeed more than fail. With her one day , there is another idiot who is slowing down by Emperor Dongqi's side. This idiot is different from others, this is Emperor Dongqi's favorite daughter, Princess Ningxin of Dongqi."

Such a fool might surprise them at any time.

Of course, this surprise was for Helan Linzhang and Luo Xiyao.

For Dong Qi, it was probably frightened.

Since she didn't intend to starve her to death, Luo Xiyao had to give her food, but the pigeons and rabbits were all eaten, so Ning Xin didn't want to eat the candies from Helan Linzhang.

After thinking for a while, Luo Xiyao said: "It's too troublesome to always deliver food to her. Doctor Ding said that one corpse is not enough, now the lower floor of the carriage has at least Doctor Ding and his bottles and cans." The two corpses, Ning Xin was disgusted by Dr. Ding, tied up her gag and put her on top to lie side by side with Lao He. It is not easy to get up and down, and it will be bad if she touches Lao He. So I thought... how about I also planted Gu on Ning Xin, so that I don't have to wake her up to eat, and when I feed Lao He's Gu, I just feed another Gu."

"As long as you're happy."

Luo Xiyao nodded: "The sky is high and the mountains are far away, I have nothing to be unhappy about."

These days, they walked the mountain roads when they could. If they couldn't, they walked the mountain roads during the day and passed through villages or towns at night.

Occasionally, a small group of soldiers would encircle and suppress them, without Luo Xiyao and He Lan Linzhang taking action, Hong Baishui led his men to clean up the soldiers and horses.

After walking like this for another six days, they finally reached the territory of Yujiang.

Just in time for the rain, the vegetation is moist and verdant.

It's just that there is no fragrance of grass and trees in the rainwater of Yujiang River, but there is a disgusting fishy smell.

Worried about the disease in Yujiang, Luo Xiyao asked Dr. Ding to prepare a medicinal powder, wrapped it in a cotton cloth, and placed it between the mouth and nose.

Fortunately, it was raining, and they were not conspicuous in their coir raincoats and bamboo hats, and their masks covered with medicine bags.

"Master." Bai Shui frowned, "This place is much more desolate than when we came last time."

As far as the eye can see, there are dilapidated villages, not to mention people, there are no dogs barking, obviously there is no one around.

"Will there really be food in Yujiang?" Luo Xiyao looked at the barren fields with worried eyes and said, "Otherwise we don't enter Yujiang, but go directly to the mines in Wei County?"

Unlike the disasters in other towns, the drought in Yujiang did not exist, it was just an earthquake.Just one earthquake can be included in the history books of Dongqi, because this earthquake destroyed half of Yujiang, and the places that were not destroyed could not be inhabited by subsequent earthquakes.

And the people will leave only if they can't survive.

They didn't know if the Yujiang earthquake had stopped, but seeing that there were still standing houses in the village, they knew that there should be no more earthquakes recently.That being the case, why are people not there?
Luo Xiyao was worried that after the Yujiang earthquake stopped, there would be an epidemic.

Otherwise, how to explain ten rooms and ten empties?

Plague!Even if Ding Zhen is confident, she doesn't want to put everyone in danger.

Luo Xiyao withdrew her gaze, rode to the carriage and knocked on the window, Ding Zhen's impatient face was soon revealed.

"We passed a few villages and there were no one there, so we thought about whether to take a detour to Wei County."

"Where to go is something I can decide?" Ding Zhenxuan raised his eyebrows, "You want me to see if there is an epidemic in Yu Jiang?"

"The rainwater in Yujiang has a stench, which shows that there are many rotting corpses. But no matter how bad the Yujiang yamen is, they should not let the corpses be left alone on the side of the road, so I am worried that Yujiang concealed the epidemic." A gust of wind came out, and the rain The water dripped on her face, Luo Xiyao wiped it with her hand, and said: "There is another possibility, that the Emperor Dongqi hides the truth from the world, and presses Yu Jiang's disease to death here first."

After Ding Zhen understood the meaning of her words, his spine shivered, "Tucheng?"

Hearing the noise, Luo Xiyao didn't care about talking to Ding Zhen, and hurriedly stopped He Lan Linzhang who wanted to look around, "Don't move!"

Helan Linzhang raised his bamboo hat, revealing an ordinary face. He had no choice but to take care of his beard, so as soon as he came out of the mountain, he changed his face again, "Don't worry, there are no corpses around, I just want to go Look for clues in the house to see when and how the villagers left. Otherwise, even if we take a detour to Wei County, we will inevitably meet people who escaped from Yujiang. Slaughtering the city...how can it be so clean, snakes have snakes Road, rats have their own way!"
