Chapter Twenty-Nine: Yunzhou
"Rest here tonight. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Yes. ”
Qing Yao listened to the sound of conversation coming from outside the carriage, and a dark glint flashed in her eyes.
"Girl, please get out of the car. ”
At this moment, a woman opened the carriage door and whispered to her.
"Hmm. ”
Qing Yao answered, and walked out slowly.
"Xing'er, we're going to spend the night in the suburbs today?"
She looked at the woman beside her and asked in a low voice.
Xing'er was the maid who was arranged to take care of Qing Yao, so there was naturally no need to hide this kind of small problem.
"Girl, because there is a famine in Yunzhou, in order to avoid trouble, we will not go into the city. ”
"I see. Qing Yao sighed, but her mind was already thinking about taking this opportunity to escape.
Xing'er naturally couldn't see her abnormality, and echoed in a low voice: "Yes, when encountering this kind of natural disaster, I am most afraid that there will be chaos." ”
"Hmm. ”
Qing Yao nodded, signaling understanding.
Apricot glanced her up and down, and slowly walked to the crowd to help.
Qing Yao moved her hands and feet, but her eyes looked at the surrounding environment without a trace.
The location she was in right now was a forest, but perhaps because of its proximity to the town, it wasn't very dense, so naturally there were no wild beasts.
"But maybe it's an opportunity. Qing Yao pondered secretly in her heart.
Because of her recent cooperation, these guards have gradually relaxed a lot, and the medicine that was originally going to be given to her has not been used on her anymore.
As the sun fades from the horizon, night sweeps over the land.
The steward had already instructed the guards to light the bonfire, and Apricot had begun to help prepare dinner.
When the food in the pot gradually emitted a burst of aroma, those victims who also slept out again subconsciously looked over here.
Seeing this, Qing Yao had a flash of inspiration.
"Looks like the opportunity has come. ”
Thinking so in her heart, she slowly came to the side of the pot, and when these people were not paying attention, her fingers flicked, and a little bit of medicinal powder quickly fell into the pot.
"Girl......"
Xing'er took the dishes and chopsticks and slowly came to her.
"Thank you. Qing Yao took the dishes and chopsticks with a calm expression.
"Crackling ......"
Qing Yao quietly looked at the bonfire in front of her, but she was silently counting the time in her heart.
At this time, Apricot walked over slowly. "Girl, it's time to rest. ”
"Good. ”
Qing Yao returned to the carriage again.
As the night deepened, there was silence outside the carriage.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, causing Qing Yao, who had already closed her eyes, to open her eyes suddenly.
"Finally poured. ”
She lowered her eyes and muttered, a chuckle slowly rising into her mouth.
In order not to let these people notice, she deliberately calculated the effect of the drug.
"It's time to go. ”
Qing Yao took out a royal blue shirt from the jade pendant space, and quickly changed out of the original white shirt.
"Click, click, click......"
She stepped on the leaves on the ground and looked around calmly.
The campfire was still burning quietly, but the original night watchman had long since fallen asleep.
Qing Yao nodded slightly and left here quickly.
The victim not far away rolled over and continued to sleep, and no one noticed that there was no one missing.
Next.
Qing Yao slowly opened her eyes and saw the bird that was stopping in front of her.
"Little one, come here. ”
She stretched out her palm and whispered softly.
The little colored sparrow tilted its head and fluttered its wings to the palm of her hand.
"Hehe......"
She looked at the little guy who lowered his head and pecked at her palm, and slightly hooked the corners of her mouth.
Last night, after she left those people, she was here without realizing it.
After finding a safe environment, she sprinkled medicinal powder around her and fell asleep peacefully.
Although she used to walk alone in the forest for a while, but at that time she was protected by Dabai, and ordinary beasts did not dare to come forward.
But now that I'm alone, it's a lot more dangerous.
Luckily, it wasn't far from town, and she was lucky not to encounter any wild beasts.
"Where are you going today?"
Qing Yao sighed lightly and lowered her eyes in contemplation.
"Click......
At this moment, the bird that rested in her palm jumped on her shoulder after tilting its head, and pecked at the embroidery on her dress with its small beak.
Qing Yao was brought back to her senses by this movement, and looked at the bird on her shoulder with a smile.
"Little one, are you hungry?"
She chuckled and slowly took out a handful of wheat and placed it in the palm of her hand.
The little bird, noticing the wheat in her palm, flapped its wings and flew hurriedly.
Qing Yao lowered her eyes and looked at the little guy in her palm, and suddenly heard the sound of birds calling from the front.
"Alright, let's all come here. ”
She looked at the birds hiding among the branches, smiled and beckoned, and then scattered the wheat on the ground.
As she moved, a large flock of birds flew out from between the leaves.
These wheats are an accidental income, so there are not much, and there are only two handfuls in total.
After scattering all the wheat in her hand, she clapped her hands and slowly turned to leave.
After walking for a long time, Qing Yao gradually encountered the crowd.
However, most of these people are fleeing victims, and only a few are passing teams.
Not sure where she was, she decided to visit the nearest town first.
After all, even if someone flees in Yunzhou, not everyone will be gone.
"Ah, dead man!"
A scream came from the front, startling her tired face.
As a healer, her first instinct was to run quickly.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" a middle-aged man called nervously as he hugged a gray-haired woman tightly.
Behind the Zi'an man, there stood a middle-aged woman with a panicked face, holding a chubby boy in her arms.
Qing Yao avoided the man in front of her and slowly walked to the front.
When she saw the woman's face clearly, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart.
"The plague?"
A bad thought flashed in her heart, and her brow furrowed slightly.
Seeing this, an old man sighed helplessly: "Another person died, what can we do in the future." ”
"It can't be the plague, right? Someone died of the plague in the town we passed by, it can't be a ......."
Before the man's words were finished, the people on the side quickly reacted and shouted.
"What?
"Quick, let's get out of here, don't get infected. ”
After hearing the word plague, the rest of the people's faces suddenly changed, and they hurriedly retreated.
Qing Yao was shaken by the moving crowd and subconsciously took two steps back.
When she stood on her feet again, there were only a few dozen people left on the scene.
Qing Yao glanced at the crowd and probably guessed that these should be people of the same clan or the same village.
"...... Now"
At this moment, she hesitated in her heart whether to step forward.
After all, the woman looked like she had the plague, but if she had stepped forward, those people would not have believed it.
