Chapter 506: Infectious (1st Update)
The vitality of Wucheng seems to be withdrawn in an instant. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Ever since that day the people knelt down at the gates of the city, the city seemed to be very quiet.
Often there is no sound at all. He sat quietly and looked at the sky outside the city gate.
The soldiers who had stopped at the city gate also withdrew and returned to the city.
The army outside has long been surrounded, and there is no difference between them and their absence.
"Is there any food from yesterday?" asked someone on the street.
The smell of herbs was everywhere in the city, but it didn't stop the people who kept falling.
"It's almost gone, I'm afraid I can hold on for three days. The herbs are also running out. The speaker's voice trembled a little.
The two were silent for a moment, and looked at each other for a long time.
"I knew that they had given up Wucheng, but I didn't want to make a decision. If you refuse to support food or herbs, will you be able to do anything to us, and you will slowly survive us?" someone said with a wry smile.
However, in just a few days, almost most people in the city contracted the angina. I'm afraid that it will be like an unknown epidemic, and it will fall when it gets sick.
Because the people in the city refused to give up, fewer and fewer people died of the plague. I think it is also to leave a way for future generations to live.
However, their speculation was not false, and the urgent discussion of the Tosan court was to deal with it in the fastest way. There must be no delay in revealing the source of the disease.
The emperor gave up them for the sake of Dosan, and they didn't need such a righteous act on their heads.
"Oh no, no..... there are a lot of people on the hot street, and I want to see the last moment, and I want to take a look at Wucheng, where I have lived for a long time.
The heart-rending cry broke the heat of this hot summer. My heart slowly cooled.
"It's going to burn the city!" I heard it said outside!" The sweat on the face of the speaker was like water.
"There is a plague spreading outside, and some people in Sangcheng have died violently! They all say that it was passed by Wucheng, and they all say that it is passed from Wucheng!" The man who said the word twitched all over, and goosebumps fell all over his body.
Wucheng is coming to an end, Wucheng is coming to an end!
There was an uproar, and almost everyone was stunned. looked stupidly at the man who was drenched in sweat.
I saw that he was trembling all over, trembling all over, and his voice was still trembling.
"A soldier who defended the city received the letter, and tried to sneak out yesterday, but was beheaded on the spot. Only then did I hear that several people had died in Sangcheng, and the people there were panicking, and the imperial doctor said that it was an unknown epidemic here. As long as it is infected, it will die. The man snapped and sat down on the ground in despair.
There was no sparkle in his eyes.
Wucheng is really coming to an end.
"So.... Is Wucheng's last chance gone?" someone was confused and determined the answer, and then went back with a deep and shallow foot.
There was hardly any emotion on their faces, and the last hope was no longer in their hands.
No matter how hard they try to control the disease, it is useless.
It's infected, it's expanded, Sangcheng is an imperial city, I'm afraid the last chance is gone.
When Ye Shizhou heard the news, it was already evening.
The sun went down, and the ground of the entire Wucheng was still emitting bursts of heat. Sitting naked on the ground can be burned. The ground had long since dried up and cracked.
Ye Shizhou walked on the street, a white ball ball on the left and a Fan Fan on the right. The two were surprisingly quiet and silent.
"Kid, how old are you?" An old man came over, squatted down and looked at Qiuqiu and Fan Fan.
Seeing that the two children looked surprisingly exquisite, the old man with cloudy eyes couldn't hold back his tears.
It's a pity for such a small child.
"Grandpa Qiuqiu is five years old..."The chubby little Qiuqiu compared his fingers to a four. There are two dimples on that innocent little face, which is very cute.
"Seven years old. Fan Fan nodded and pursed his lips. He was always a little defensive against strangers.
When the people around saw the old man wiping his tears, they also looked away, but they didn't say a word.
Ye Shizhou stood aside and didn't speak, looking at him quietly.
The old man's hands were full of calluses, and he touched Fan Fan and Qiuqiu. Only then did he sigh softly.
"In the city.... I dug a tunnel for the children, and now I have time to do that. Come and hide yourselves in the evening. Don't make a sound when anything happens, you know?" the old man patted the two children on the shoulders with trembling hands.
gave Ye Shizhou a name, it was on the outskirts of the city. So he walked away, thinking that he would go to the children of the city.
I could faintly hear the old man muttering softly: "You have to leave a way for the children, Wucheng can't be broken." The voice was full of vicissitudes.
The distracted people around heard it, but they seemed to know it.
"It turns out that I have been quietly digging tunnels for the past few days..."Fan Fan lowered his little head and suddenly wanted to cry.
When he first came to Wucheng, he had a bad impression of Wucheng.
The people outside the city wanted to grab food and water, and they wanted to break through the Wufu Inn at night to rob them, all of which did not have a good impression on him.
But now, these people have all left their only chance of survival to the children in the city. And there are no objections, not the slightest opinion.
The silent look seemed to have resigned himself to his fate.
It's not hot during the day, but the temperature is a little cooler at night, so you can see the city where you have lived for generations during the day. At night, they quietly went to dig a hole.
"You children must not come out, no matter how much trouble is outside, you are not allowed to go out, you know? Along the way, there were people who asked the children to say a few words.
"In the future, you have to rely on yourself, such a beautiful child, you have to protect yourself. "There are no hysterical people, and they have returned to their former simplicity.
Sure enough, the whole city knew.
Qiuqiu bit her lower lip, her long, thick eyelashes fluttered and blinked several times. With his head down, tears fell from his eyes.
"It's all Qiuqiu's fault, Qiuqiu should learn hard. "If she learns the rituals well, she might be as powerful as the high priest.
Ye Shizhou patted her head, and her fluffy hair was very warm in the palm of her hand.
The two had not gone far into the street when they heard a heart-rending cry of despair at the city gate.
"It's going to burn the city! it's going to burn the city!!" the screams made people shudder.
Everyone got up from the streets, ran out of their houses, and climbed the walls like crazy.
One by one, almost all of them ran out. The entire people of Wucheng stared at the scorching sun and climbed the city wall. If you can't go up, you will look at it anxiously, and at this moment, everyone's hearts are cold.
Ye Shizhou stood at the head of the wall, and the two children could only see half of it.
I saw that under the city wall, there were already soldiers piling firewood one after another, all wearing veils. Extremely well prepared.
On the opposite hill, Feng Shao's eyes were red. The triple emergency call under the sleeve was pinched by him.
