Card Room

Chapter 503

Since Aunt Qing took Qin Feng and Han Ningshuang to leave Qingfeng Town, and the range of the bug was only 500 meters, it was impossible to continue to track the three aunts with a bug. The best way is to split up. Although the split operation is not safe, they are now only two people, and they can't leave a clue on.

Ye Qi proactively suggested, "I have a teleporter card and run fast. I will follow Aunt Qing and you will stay in Qingfeng Town and continue to monitor Ren Yuan and the two children. Do you think it's okay?"

Shao Qingge worried about the authenticity, "What do you do if you act alone?"

Ye Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a lot of control cards in my hand, and there is a worm king card that you gave me. I can't do it. I can turn into a worm king. The worm king is not afraid of being cut, even if he has been cut off. It can also be regenerated."

This unlucky word made Shao Qingge frown, and immediately interrupted him with a deep voice. "Don't talk nonsense. The insect king is not invincible. Fear of fire is its fatal weakness. If it is separated, I can't help you in time. ..."

Ye Qi looked up at Shao Qingge's eyes and said seriously, "But if we let the clue Aunt Qing go, we can't get the correct answer and can't leave this secret room. Rest assured, I can take care of myself." After a while, he said, "I'm more worried about you, Mr. Shao. Those rich and capricious cards in your hands are really inferior to my music cards."

Concerning the serious look of the boy, Shao Qingge softened his mind and gently pressed his shoulder and said, "You are right, we have no reason to let go of a clue. Well, we divided our actions and kept in touch with each other. In any case, your safety is your priority, you know?"

Ye Qi nodded cautiously, "You too."

The two looked at each other, and Ye Qi said to him with a lip, "Take care," and disappeared without a trace.

Aunt Qing's horse was obviously not full, and did not run fast. Ye Qi caught up with them in a moment.

Shao Qingge stayed where Ren Yuan lived and patiently observed. The two have always kept in touch with each other, on the one hand to confirm the safety of the other, and also to discuss countermeasures with each other.

I don’t know how long it took, and suddenly there was Ye Qi’s voice in Shao Qingge’s mind, “Aunt Qing has taken two children to Yuezhou, but the situation in Yuezhou is not much better than Qingfeng Town. The famine has killed a lot. People are corpses along the road. Aunt Qing did not enter the city and settled her two children in a broken temple outside the city. No one lives in this broken temple."

Shao Qingge wondered "broken temple?"

Ye Qidao "There is a dry well in the broken temple, inside which is the dry food she hid."

Shao Qingge knew "it turned out to be the case. Something happened on Ren Yuan's side, Qi Ran had a high fever, was unconscious, and began to have red spots on his body, and Xiao Yun had been taking care of him beside him."

"The fever doesn't go away?" Ye Qi was startled. "Is it because of his broken finger wound?"

"It is possible. There are still many red spots on his face, which should be infected with chickenpox, which is the same disease as Han Ningshuang." Shao Qingge had chickenpox when he was a child. I remember that the whole body was covered with red spots at the time, and it was very itchy. His parents ordered him not to go out. He was guilty of a week at home, and he soon became ill.

According to doctors, people who have had the disease will produce antibodies and gain lifelong immunity, and will not regenerate the same disease in the future. At that time, he was still young, and Shao Qingge didn't care about it after he got sick. Now that he sees the erythema on Qi Ran's body, he remembers this experience when he was young.

Ye Qi pondered for a moment and said, "That is to say, the mother-in-law told the group that the children got the highly contagious smallpox, and they lied to them, trying to let them send the children away. In fact, these children just got chickenpox? "

Shao Qingge nodded. "Well, I had chickenpox when I was young. I knew this disease. Both smallpox and chickenpox have spots on the skin, but the lethality varies greatly. Smallpox has been eliminated in our time, but in ancient times, smallpox was The most terrible severe infectious disease, will it be difficult to survive with smallpox?"

Ye Qi thought that if Professor Xiao was there, there should be a more professional explanation of these diseases. He and Shao Qingge are laymen, only knowing the fur. Shao Qingge's analysis is also very reasonable. Ye Qi thought about it and said, "Something else should happen next? The death of mother-in-law laid a seed of hatred in their hearts, but the murderer twenty years later, committing the crime When it comes to'hook spirits', how did several children learn these evils?"

Shao Qingge said, "Yes, this is the key, we continue to follow up."

Nothing happened for the next day. At night, Qi Ran finally woke up. Zhou Xiaoyun fed him water. Qi Ran couldn't bear itching all over his body. He kept scratching with his hands. Ren Yuan stopped him immediately. Of course, don't scratch it, it will leave scars if you scratch it."

Qi Ran's face was pale, and he looked up and asked, "Uncle Ren, can I survive?"

Ren Yuan gently touched his head, "It must work."

Qi Ran stared blankly at the sweet potatoes on the ground and murmured, "My parents died of illness when I was five years old. They didn't leave me any money or food. I carried a broken bowl around the street. Begging... I remember that it was winter. I was only wearing a ragged short gown and my hands and feet were numb. The heavy snow fell that night, and I thought, I should be frozen to death... "

Zhou Xiaoyun sobbed and said, "Did your mother-in-law save you?"

Qi Ran’s mouth gently raised, saying, “It’s mother-in-law and Ningshuang. When I woke up, I saw a little girl in a red dress wearing a cotton robe and stuffed me with a steaming hand. Steamed buns. I haven’t eaten in three days. I thought I dreamed of a fairy and ate my buns in two. My mother-in-law squatted down and looked at me and said, poor child, go back with me, you can’t let you eat. Drink spicy, at least without starving and freezing."

Ren Yuan sat aside and said nothing.

Zhou Xiaoyun burst into tears and Qi Ran told her mother-in-law's story intermittently.

Her mother-in-law, surnamed Sun, is a foreigner, came to Qingfeng Town with her husband to do business, and brought a five-year-old son. The family had a peaceful and beautiful life, but unexpectedly a disease caused her child to die, and her husband accidentally fell off the cliff when he went out. She survived on her own, survived on the craft of making toys, and adopted many orphans in the town.

Ren Yuan was her first adopted child, as old as her deceased child, she treated Ren Yuan as her biological son, and passed on the craft of rattles to Ren Yuan; the second adopted child was Aunt Qing; then then Han Ningshuang, Qin Feng, Qi Ran and the youngest Zhou Xiaoyun.

For these children, the mother-in-law is their savior and their only relative in the world.

Qi Ran took a rattle from his arms and choked with a sore voice, "This is a gift my mother-in-law gave me at her nine-year-old birthday. There was no famine at that time. My mother-in-law told me that she would teach me how to do a rattle, but I didn't expect..."

Ren Yuan sighed softly, holding his shoulder and saying, "Aran, don't be sad, your mother-in-law doesn't want you to be so sad in the sky. You are sick now, take care of your body first and say... mother-in-law, she will hope you can do well Live on."

Qi Ran wiped his tears indiscriminately, and nodded and said, "I will survive. I was not frozen to death when I was five years old, and now, I will not be starved to death." There was a trace of firmness in the boy's eyes, gritted his teeth. "When I grow up, I must seek revenge from these people!"

Zhou Xiaoyun seriously said, "Brother, let's avenge our mother-in-law together!"

The words of the children do not have to be taken seriously. Today, they were stimulated by the death of their mother-in-law, and their hearts were full of hatred, but after adulthood, who is the one to do it is still uncertain.

Ye Qi suddenly said in his mind, "Several children attach great importance to their mother-in-law. Will they work together to commit crimes?"

Shao Qingge thought carefully and thought that this possibility was very high. He said, "At present, Qi Ran, Zhou Xiaoyun and Qin Feng, and Han Ningshuang, one group is in Qingfeng Town and the other group is in Yuezhou. It’s not necessarily met. I remember Qin Feng returned to Qingfeng Town after many years, and became the mayor as soon as possible. Also, he has never been married?"

Ye Qidao said, "Yes! I also remember that at the time Xiaodian Er said that Qin Feng's threshold was about to be broken by the matchmaker, but all the matchmakers were rejected by him. He said he already had a marriage contract and would wait for his sweetheart... Would it? The sweetheart he said was Han Ningshuang who grew up with him?"

Shao Qingge nodded and said, "I think so too. If the person he was waiting for was Han Ningshuang, it means that the two of them were separated later, and Qin Feng has been waiting for her. Since it has been separated, Han Ningshuang may also learn the evil spirits of hooking? "

Ye Qi said with a headache. "We can't always follow them. We have been following them for more than ten years. Waiting for them to grow up?"

Shao Qingge was silent for a moment and said, "We must find out the murderer as soon as possible, otherwise, we will be starved to death in this famine world. Because this time we did not put in any food in advance, and only had a material supply card in hand."

Milk, instant noodles, mineral water, chocolate, and supplies in the material replenishment package are only these, and it can only be used once in each secret room world. Two adults, how long can you eat this kind of food?

Ye Qi smiled bitterly and said, "The world of famine really does not allow us to stay too long, unless we go to grab other people's food, but in that case, it will cut off other people's lives. For these things in the material card, I drink milk and eat chocolate every day. With mineral water and instant noodles for one day, we can stick to three days. Can we solve the case within three days? If not, we have to eat leaves..."

Shao Qingge pressed the temple and said, "Try your best, I hope new clues can appear within three days."

The following day, Shao Qingge and Ye Qi only drank a bottle of milk. At night, a strong sense of hunger struck. The food in the town had already been ransacked. Shao Qingge did not want to grab any distant sweet potatoes, which affected the potential murderer and could only hold on.

Ye Qi is familiar with the road, and has gone to the surrounding temple to scavenge for some grass to prepare for hunger.

The next day, Ren Yuan, Aunt Qing and the children did not behave abnormally.

Shao Ye and the two ate the chocolate in the material supply package and drank half a bottle of mineral water.

The hunger is so strong that people can't ignore it, the stomach is empty, the motility of the gastrointestinal tract seems to be clamoring for the owner to feed food, and the stomach keeps grunting. Shao Qingge is a wealthy second generation, who grew up with respect for his superiors, and can’t afford anything he wants to eat. This is the first time he has experienced the feeling of hunger.

He finally understood how many sins people suffered in the famine. Under extreme hunger, human nature began to distort, and the phenomenon of cannibalism sounded terrible, but it was also a real disorder at the time.

It was so uncomfortable that he had been hungry for only two days. How hard should those poor people without food be? I'm afraid I really want to eat dirt and leaves.

Thinking of the corpses scattered on the roadside, Shao Qingge was in a mixed mood.

On the third day, Shao Qingge finished the last package of instant noodles in the supply package. There is no hot water to cook noodles, so you can only eat dry.

However, nothing happened on this day. Ren Yuan and Zhou Xiaoyun were taking care of Qi Ran. Ye Qi's side, Aunt Qing was also trying to find a way for the two children to eat.

On the fourth day, the supplies had been eaten up, and we had to find a way to find it.

Shao Qingge twirled around. There were no leaves or wild grass near Qingfeng Town. He was so hungry that he could hardly walk. Ye Qi felt his thoughts through his heart, and suddenly he felt a tremendous move, saying, "It’s better to go to Taohuayuan, There are peach trees and there is a river where you can eat something to hunger."

Shao Qingge gave him a piece of Tao Yuanming before Ye Qi left, and left one for himself.

Hearing this, both of them opened Peach Blossom Source and entered the independent Peach Blossom Source space.

Drink river water and eat peach blossoms.

Xiaolou’s Taohuayuan has always been used by the team to send it. It was never expected that one day, Shao Qingge and Ye Qi would actually go to Taohuayuan and eat peach blossom petals to feed their hunger...

Ye Qi smiled bitterly, "If Professor Xiao knew, what would we do if we used his peach blossom like this?"

Shao Qingge said, "If you can survive, don't care about these details. You know this and it's our secret."

Ye Qi nodded. "Well, I won't tell people that we have eaten a lot of peach blossoms."

Shao Qingge; "..."

The two separated from each other far away, chatting carefully. Although Ye Qi is also very hungry this time, Shao Qingge is with him much better than the nightmare secret room that Spades 3 is facing alone.

Thinking about it, I suddenly heard Shao Qingge's voice "There is movement."

Ye Qi immediately cheered up "What's wrong?"

Shao Qingge said, "Qi Ran's fever has retreated, and he is mostly cured. He took advantage of the deep sleep of Ren Yuan and Zhou Xiaoyun. He sneaked out and sat alone in the corner of the wall, reading a very strange book under the moonlight."

Ye Qi froze for a while. "Book? Is it something related to evil art?"

Shao Qingge said, "There are some strange spells drawn on it, which I can't understand, but this book is definitely not simple."

Ye Qi nodded. "This kid is not easy."
