Chapter 124: The Conspiracy Behind It

The guards who were palpitating were already a little frightened, and the expressions on their faces were unusually solemn.

Pu Yangyu quickly made the decision, and let dozens of well-skilled guards, including Cheng Shu, follow him to check on him, while the others were injured on the spot, while preventing the poisonous rats trapped in the fire ring from escaping.

Xing Ruoyou gave the only three packs of realgar powder and white phosphorus powder on his body to the leading guards, and after telling him how to use it, he followed Pu Yangyu to check it with a smile.

Pu Yangyu found that Xing Ruoyou was holding Xing Ruoyou's hand with a smile wherever he went, and he was very dissatisfied, so he deliberately inserted it between the two of them and talked to Xing Ruoyou.

Xiaoxiao was squeezed aside, but she didn't dare to squeeze Pu Yangyu away, so she had to go around and around to the other side of Xing Ruoyou, and whispered: "Childe, why does this sixth master feel weird?" ”

In fact, Xiaoxiao felt that Pu Yangyu seemed to be interesting to Xing Ruoyou, but Xing Ruoyou said that Pu Yangyu didn't know that she was a woman, so Xiaoxiao denied that speculation, and just said that he was "weird".

Xing Ruoyou nodded sympathetically, lowered his voice and replied: "He's not a little weird, he's always weird!" ”

Pu Yangyu, who was being discussed, thought that he had finally cut off the skin-to-skin contact between Xing Ruoyou and Xiaoxiao, but he didn't know that the two of them were squeezing their eyebrows and whispering about him all the way.

It didn't take long for them to spot the screaming woman.

The woman seemed to have accidentally strayed into this village, and got lost, and found that there was an old woman with white hair in front of her, and when she was about to go up to ask for directions, the other party suddenly fell to the ground and convulsed, foaming at the mouth, and grabbed the corner of her clothes, and the woman was so frightened that she screamed loudly.

The old woman was unconscious at this time, Xing Ruoyou was about to step forward to check the old woman's condition, but Xiaoxiao unusually pounced first, her eyes instantly turned red, she looked at Xing Ruoyou with tears, and said excitedly: "It's the nurse!" ”

Saying that, Xiaoxiao first stretched out his hand to check the pulse of the nurse, and found that her pulse was like a gossamer, her breath was weak, and her tears came down, and she looked at Xing Ruoyou again: "Son, please save the nurse, please!" ”

After Xing Ruoyou went over to check the nurse's body, he took water from the guards, fed her a reassuring pill, and helped her back to the vicinity of the ruined temple with Xiaoxiao.

And the frightened woman followed them to the ruined temple.

After settling down, Pu Yangyu pulled Xing Ruoyou aside and spoke: "Stop worrying, is that old woman really your nurse?" ”

"No, it's the nurse of 'Xiao Xiao'." If Xing Ruoyou didn't say that, he wouldn't be able to pass Puyang Yu's level at all.

You must know that the nurse was sent to this village when she turned one year old, and judging by the state of the nurse at this time, she must have lived here for more than ten years.

And Xing Ruoyou said to Puyang Yu Xiaoxiao is a subordinate who has just been bought and served for a short time, if Xiaoxiao knows Xing Ruoyou The nurse who was sent here more than ten years ago, doesn't that mean that he has been helping himself.

Moreover, Xing Ruoyou discovered a more serious problem, the nurse had a variety of toxins left in her body, one of which was the same as the poison rat that attacked them before!

She suspected that a few years ago, the people in this village had not contracted the plague at all, but probably died of poisoning, but the symptoms of poisoning were similar to the plague, so everyone thought that they had the plague.

And those crazy rats were either poisoned at the same time, or they ate the carrion of those poisoned corpses, and after several generations of reproduction, they mutated and evolved into today's poisonous rats.

Mice are extremely reproductive, and in a few years, they can reproduce for at least a few dozen generations!

After listening to Xing Ruoyou's analysis, Pu Yangyu's eyebrows became tighter and tighter, this is only fifty kilometers away from the capital, and there is such a thing in the whole village, and the officials actually treat it as a plague, and it is too hasty, which is equivalent to disregarding human life.

And actually allowing these incompetent lonely old men to fend for themselves is even more of a crime.

Seeing that Pu Yangyu's face was getting darker and darker, Xing Ruoyou persuaded: "Sixth Master, this is just my speculation, whether this is really the case or not, it needs to be further verified." ”

Pu Yangyu retracted his thoughts: "How do you want to check?" ”

"First of all, I need to gather all the old people living in this village, and I have to check whether they have residual poison in their bodies; Then it is necessary to completely eradicate these poisonous rats, and never let them escape. At the same time, it is also necessary to send someone back to Beijing to report the matter to the emperor, and strictly investigate the officials who dealt with the plague incident in this village in the first place. As he spoke, Xing Ruoyou's eyes locked on the direction of the broken temple, "I suspect that there may be a cellar under the broken temple, and there should be more information inside." ”

Pu Yangyu and Xing Ruoyou thought of going together, and immediately let the uninjured guards act in batches.

Some went to gather the last remaining jobs in the village, some went to the nearest market to buy large quantities of realgar powder and phosphorus powder, and the best ones were sent back to the palace to report the situation.

Cheng Shu watched anxiously from the sidelines, and after the guards split up, he came to Pu Yangyu's side and whispered: "Sixth master, the emperor only gave us half a month to deal with the affairs of Luoyang・・・・・・

You have to run back and forth for seven or eight days right away, and the time to really do things is only seven or eight days at most, if you delay in this village, Cheng Shu is worried that his master will not be able to complete the task.

The emperor was not too worried, but he could not resist the impeachment of the ministers sent by the King of Yan.

Pu Yangyu stared at Cheng Shu: "This matter is related to the lives of hundreds of people in this village, even if the trip is delayed, the young master has to find out it before setting off." If it is really poisoning as Zhi Wu said, why is this village poisoned within a radius of dozens of miles, is it man-made or a natural disaster, if these are not understood, wouldn't it be a vain death for the people in this village? ”

Cheng Shu was counted, but his face became more and more positive, and finally the words were round: "The sixth master's lesson is right, it is the short-sightedness of his subordinates!" ”

Pu Yangyu nodded.

Xing Ruoyou on the side listened to it clearly, and found that the longer he came into contact with Pu Yangyu, the more he could find that his justice that cares about the common people is actually hidden in his bones.

On weekdays, he may be a little casual in the capital, but at every critical moment, Pu Yangyu can always make a decision that satisfies Xing Ruoyou.

If Pu Yangche was to help Pu Yangyu board the plane, she would do her best to help Pu Yangche now, and she would not be wronged.

At least Xing Ruoyou thinks that Pu Yangyu will be Mingjun.

As for Pu Yang Che, although he hid deeply, Xing Ruoyou knew that if he was the emperor, he might not be worse than Pu Yang Yu.

But subconsciously, Xing Ruoyou actually found that he didn't seem to want Pu Yangche to be the emperor.

There are so many reasons that she doesn't want to bother with at the moment.

At this time, the first group of guards to set off came to gather with the only six old people left in the village.

But the woman who was rescued by them suddenly rushed towards Xing Ruoyou, her body like lightning・・・・・・
