From Jiu Shu's world

Chapter 71 Arriving at Xishan
In the middle of the night, Henry Zhang wanted to go back to the inn with the old man Wei Wu, but the old man Wei Wu refused.According to what he said, the inn suddenly lost a waiter and it was the past, but it would be difficult to deal with the sudden addition of babies.If he is misunderstood as a kidnapper, it will be difficult to escape if he sues the official.

Henry Zhang asked: "Are you still going to Xishan to visit relatives?"

Old man Wei Wu shook his head and said, "Where are there any relatives in Xishan? It's just a polite way of saying. I'll take the children and settle down in the village ahead. If I have some spare money, it shouldn't be difficult to buy a country house."

The profession of executioner is considered as a lowly profession that earns a lot of money. Although the income is high, and family members will send interest money every time a head is beheaded, it is disgusted by others, and it is extremely difficult to start a family.So this old man has some surplus money, and it is no problem to support two people.

Henry Zhang nodded and said: "That's fine."

Henry Zhang thought for a while, took out a Yang Yuanzhi from the black coffin space, handed it to the old man and said: "Take this thing, it will help this child, he stayed in this tomb since he was a child, malnourished, yin and yang are uneven, Take it to make up for him."

Old man Wei Wu took Yang Yuanzhi with a nod and thanked him, and then the two of them bid farewell. In the tomb this month, only Chen Er's body was left on the ground.

Early the next morning, everyone woke up and found that Chen Er and old man Wei Wu were gone, so they couldn't help but feel a little strange.

It's just that although everyone finds it strange, they don't want to sue the officials. One is that the old man Wei Wu is just a companion he met on the road, and he doesn't want to restrict his contacts.The second is that Chen Er just thought he couldn't stand the slap yesterday and ran away by himself.

Boss Qian just cursed and said that Chen Er was not a thing.

The group left the inn, and when Ji Mengyu asked about what happened last night, Henry Zhang didn’t hide anything, and told her everything.Mengyu heard this and said, "Your human hearts are really more sinister than ghosts."

Henry Zhang sneered: "There is something more sinister, do you think that restaurant owner is a good thing?"

Ji Mengyu glanced at Henry Zhang puzzledly. She went up early yesterday and was not too clear about what happened below, but she just felt a strange breath entering the inn.

Henry Zhangdao: "Have you ever seen a ring for a bowl of rice cereal?"

Henry Zhang threw out a question, which was exactly what he saw last night.That Boss Qian is not a good thing either. He saw that the female corpse communicated fluently at the beginning, and then gradually became sluggish, and did not counter-offer after the price was raised, so there was such an absurd thing like exchanging a ring for a bowl of rice cereal.

It depends on the means of the money shopkeeper. I am afraid that he wants to slowly force her to submit like a frog in warm water. Just imagine that if it is true that the lady does not have a source of income, I am afraid that it will only be the result of committing herself to others, just like the girl in the beautiful legend of Sicily. Like the main character.

Ji Mengyu smiled and said, "Why don't you clean up that inn owner?" She knew that Henry Zhang couldn't understand the boss, so she deliberately teased Henry Zhang.

Unexpectedly, Henry Zhang smiled and said, "I won't be able to deal with him this time."

Chen Er is a spy of the thieves, and he reported to the inn owner to inquire about the news. I haven't seen him for a while. When the thieves go down the mountain, the shopkeeper will look good.

As Henry Zhang expected, they had only been away for less than three days, and after a while, the thieves came down from the mountain, went straight to the inn, and used torture to ask the boss, where did Chen Er go?
The boss suffered a lot of torture because he really didn't know where the man had gone. Later, he didn't know that the violent thieves got angry and kicked on the pillar in the hall.The column was in disrepair for a long time, and it had been eaten away by moths for a long time, and it was kicked off with one foot. When the load-bearing column was broken, the inn collapsed, and a cloud of smoke and dust was blown up, burying everyone inside.This has become a story circulating in this place, and the locals call it a thieves in the inn.

After passing this inn, Henry Zhang and his party went smoothly and never encountered any weird things again.

But the scenery along the way is not very good. Although it is not a wilderness of corpses, it is extremely desolate. Some villages have already become empty shells, and there is no one left.

Arriving at the capital of Xishan Province, Henry Zhang felt the fear caused by the plague.Before entering the city, I saw a group of soldiers in blue uniforms checking pedestrians in front of the city gate.

They all wore white masks and held long guns made in Hanyang, checking passers-by who were about to enter the city one by one.

Although the provincial capital was not the main city where the outbreak occurred, these soldiers were still very careful in checking.

Henry Zhang and his party entered the city, and they were no longer with shopkeeper Su, and the two separated after saying goodbye.

After Shopkeeper Su left, Ji Mengyu said, "Okay, I'll go first too, and I'll look for you then."

Although Henry Zhang knew that the woman Ji Mengyu came for this soaring resentment, is it really okay to go directly without concealing it at all?
Henry Zhang said angrily: "Go, go, just don't cause trouble for me."

Henry Zhang was going to the isolation area, and what Ji Mengyu wanted was to find those corpse pits to absorb the grievances. The two places were going to different places.

Ji Mengyu left, but Henry Zhang found an inn, sat down, and prepared to inquire about the quarantine area.

Although the plague was rampant, there were still guests in twos and threes in the restaurant.Henry Zhang sat down, ordered some food and wine, and then called Xiaoer who came over to serve the food, and asked, "Xiaoer, I heard that there is a plague in Xishan, why do I see that there seems to be no change in this provincial capital?"

The second brother smiled and said, "Look at what you said, if the plague is rampant in the provincial capital, the world will be in chaos."

He boasted superficially, and then quietly approached him and said, "Guest officer, you don't know that the chiefs in this provincial city are so ruthless, but if someone gets sick and has a fever, the whole family is arrested and locked up. Liujia Town, twenty miles away, is the real hell."

As the saying goes, abandon the car to protect the handsome, let alone these civilians, the local warlords will not be merciful.It's just that this method looks very spicy, but it is indeed effective. The stability of the provincial capital is the result of this very spicy method.

Henry Zhang asked: "Is it the same in other cities?"

Xiaoer said: "That's not true. This officer is like this, let alone his subordinates. They are imitating the example. They are almost always isolated in a certain village and town. They are allowed to enter and not allowed to leave. Occasionally send them in for a while." Approving materials is considered as the best of humanity."

Henry Zhang wondered: “No doctor?”

Xiao Er smiled wryly and said: "Guest officer, if you are closer to those elders in Beijing, there will be doctors sent over. But the West Mountain is separated by thousands of miles, why would they care? They are all from the local area. Benevolent doctors and foreign doctors visit occasionally."

Henry Zhang waved his hand to let the little brother leave. It is clear where the quarantine area is, but this situation is worse than he imagined, almost in a state of self-destruction, I am afraid that there are already dead bodies everywhere.

The plague broke out quickly and killed people quickly. This quarantine area is probably just a virus concentration camp.

But this is also good, it will be of great help to Ah Bao's advancement.

Henry Zhang got up and walked out of the restaurant. He planned to visit Liujia Town without further ado.
