Daliang female chief assistant

Chapter 58 Lost
When she said this, Hongying's eyelashes flickered slightly, and the expression on her face was very guilty.

Zhou Shu was thinking with his head down, but he didn't notice anything wrong with her.

Hearing that there was no sound over there, he raised his eyelids and looked over.

"what happened?"

Hongying quickly lowered her head, in case she saw something was wrong.

Shaking his head, "No."

Hearing this, Zhou Shu said "oh" with half-belief and asked her to continue.

Hongying continued: "Later, the master saw that after you came to Xiangzhou City, you only cared about making a living for the people, so he asked us to make trouble secretly so that you could discover the conspiracy of Sun Yao and Zhang Mao'an."

It turned out to be the case.

But Zhou Shu was puzzled by one thing, "Hongying, you just said that it was your master who made you stumble in the dark, so that I could discover Sun Yao's conspiracy, and the plague that happened in Siyi County?"

Did it exist in the first place, or did that person intentionally infect the people for the sake of profit?

After she finished speaking, Hongying tightened her hands on her chest just now.

Fingernails dug into the palm of his hand, and he opened his mouth in embarrassment.

"My master ordered me to do it."

After she finished speaking, she immediately looked up at Zhou Shu, for fear of seeing disgust in her eyes.

Quickly explained, "My lord, I can explain."

"Okay, you explain." Zhou Shu was very generous and asked her to continue.

Hongying closed her eyes in pain, and explained in a few words that she developed a poison that caused a "plague" among the people of Siyi County.

As she had thought before, the so-called "plague" was just a poison similar to the symptoms of the plague.

Those people who were so-called infected with the "plague" were all poisoned.

including her.

Now that I have asked, I have to ask clearly.

Zhou Shu inquired clearly about the cause and effect, answered the doubts in his heart, and let Hongying go down.

While thinking about the master in her mouth, she slowly paced outside.

Before he knew it, he looked up and found that he had walked outside Wen Yu's courtyard.

Just in time to ask him how he went to check the situation in the forest.

Thinking of this, she lifted the corner of her robe and stepped in.

But the room was pitch black, and she knocked on the door three or four times, but no one responded.

She looked at the closed door and said to herself: "It's so late, haven't you come back yet?"

There is a little uneasiness in my heart.

But she didn't take it to heart, turned around and walked to her yard.

Halfway, I met Qiu Min who came from outside, and stopped him to ask.

"Qiu Min, you can see Master Xiaohou."

Qiu Min first saluted her respectfully, and then replied honestly, "Young Lord Hou went to Wushan to check alone during the day, and he hasn't come back yet."

"Alone?" Hearing this, Zhou Shu couldn't help but raise his voice.

Seeing Qiu Min nodding affirmatively.

The uneasiness in her heart gradually expanded.

Hastily said: "Qiu Min, you go and gather people immediately, and go to Wushan with me to meet the young master."

Wushan is the forest she pointed out to Wen Yuting and Wang Youxian earlier.

It is foggy all the year round and the terrain is dangerous.

Wen Yuting went alone, and she hadn't come back after so long, she had to worry if something happened to him.

After Qiu Min took the order, he went to gather the manpower.

When Wang Youxian heard that Wen Yuting went to Wushan alone, he was also anxious.

When Zhou Shu and his men were about to go to Wushan Mountain, they also chased after him on horseback.

Hearing the sound of galloping horseshoes, Zhou Shu opened the curtain and looked out.

Wang Youxian just rode his horse to her carriage, looked at her and said, "Lord Zhou, this general is also going."

One more person means more chances of winning.

Zhou Shu nodded and agreed.

A group of people came to the foot of the foggy mountain. The mountain was filled with fog, and the carriage could not go up the mountain.

Zhou Shu got down from the carriage and asked someone to find torches, each with a torch, lit it, and walked up the mountain.

After walking a hundred steps, the original one road diverged and became two.

"Master Zhou, what should we do?" Wang Youxian looked at the two different roads in front of him and asked.

Everyone looked at Zhou Shu.

Zhou Shu put one hand in front of him, thought for a moment, and then made a decision.

"General Wang, you and I will divide into two groups, and take people along these two roads to find the young master. If you find the young master, use the fireworks as a signal, and then we will return to this round at that time."

"This method is very good."

Wang Youxian took the fireworks signal from Qiu Min, waved to the soldiers behind him, and led a group of people to the fork on the right.

Not long after, their figures were covered by the thick fog, and they could no longer be seen clearly.

Zhou Shu looked away, "Let's go."

"Young Master, let Qiu Min go first." Qiu Min held a torch and walked to the front of the team, carefully going deeper.

Zhou Shu led the people and followed closely behind him.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Qiu Min suddenly stopped suspiciously.

Holding the torch, he walked to the nearest tree and looked around.

The fog filled the air, even if they held torches, they could only see three or four feet away, but it was enough to know the way.

Looking around, Qiu Min has made a decision in his heart.

He turned around and turned back with a serious face.

"Young Master, we may have entered the Misty Forest." While speaking, he looked back at the trees behind his eyes, "We have been to this place before."

After listening to him, Zhou Shu also walked to the big tree on the side, and looked left and right.

When the other soldiers heard that they had entered the Milin, they all panicked.

Zhou Shu scanned everyone's faces one by one, forcing himself to calm down.

Immediately, an idea came up.

"Everyone, don't panic. With my official here, I will definitely take you out unscathed."

Her words gave everyone confidence.

The chaotic team instantly quieted down.

After everyone was quiet, Zhou Shu said again: "In this way, everyone pulls a piece of cloth from your own clothes, and we tie a piece of cloth to the tree every ten steps we walk."

After she finished speaking, the rest followed suit.

Previously, it was going straight forward, but it returned to the original point.

This time, Zhou Shu asked Qiu Min to walk to the left.

According to her instructions, Qiumin tied a white cloth on the tree every ten steps.

About another hour passed.

Qiu Min was about to give the hand that tied the cloth strips to the tree a pause.

A strip of cloth has been tied to the tree.

They are back to square one.

Discovering this fact, Qiu Min turned around and asked Zhou Shu what to do next with his eyes.

Zhou Shu pointed in the opposite direction.

Qiu Min had no choice but to walk to the right.

Going around, the group returned to the very beginning.

After a whole night, everyone was exhausted, hungry, and terrified because they were trapped on the mountain.

Zhou Shu sat down slowly against a big tree, and Qiu Min came over with a kettle to quench her thirst.

At this moment, a small sob sounded from the crowd.

Then, the sound became louder and louder.

"I'm only 19 years old. I haven't seen the vast sky outside. I haven't followed the general to fight the enemy. I don't want to die yet. I'm still starved to death. It's so embarrassing. If my fellow villagers know about it, they will laugh at me to death." me."

After he finished crying, there was a burst of ridicule immediately.

Laughing and laughing, the voice gradually decreased.

In this situation, no one can laugh.

Not only will he die in such a shameful way, but the rest of them will be trapped and starved to death.

Maybe in the end, the hunger is unbearable, and you will start eating the flesh and drinking the blood of your companions.
