Chapter 15: Investigating the Plague
"Master, it's like a contagion, oh, a plague. Words * love * first * hair [Fengyun Novel Reading Network Baoly]"
"Oh? Then you know why they are sick. Wu Yue said meaningfully.
"Well, you need to go to Luoyi Town to investigate the source of the disease in person." Mi Tianyu thought for a while and replied.
"Meadow, what do you think about this?" Wu Yue looked at the six apprentices with his bluish eyes.
"Master Hui, listening to the descriptions of these people, it is indeed very much like a plague. But it is not yet possible to draw conclusions. Therefore, the disciple agreed with the little junior sister's mention that he should go to Luoyi Town to investigate in person. Mei Duo's answer was logical, and Wu Yue nodded with satisfaction.
"In this case, the two of you will go with your senior brother to have a look, firstly, with Mei Duo, there should be no big problem in terms of medicine, and secondly, Yuchi can also protect the two of you. When it rains, you can help your sister from the side. ā
"Yes, follow the teacher's orders." The two replied in unison.
The next day, the two simply packed their bags and called Shangjiang Yuchi to go to Luoyi Town at the foot of the mountain. Because they came down the mountain with the task of investigating the plague this time, the three of them didn't talk much along the way, but quickly walked down the mountain. When they were about to walk down the mountain, they suddenly heard someone calling them from behind.
"Hey, hey, wait, wait, wait The three of them looked behind them in unison, and saw a small black dot running towards them from far and near, holding a little silver-white fox in their arms, which was chased by Qi Jingshun.
"Psychic Illusion!" Mi Tianyu screamed. The little thing that was originally quietly staying in Qi Jingshun's arms immediately jumped down, and came to her side in two jumps, rubbing its hairy head against Mi Tianyu's calves.
Everyone was surprised to see Qi Jingshun who was panting and panting, and the fifth senior brother Jiang Yuchi asked out loud: "Jingshun, why are you here, didn't the master let you practice hard in the temple?" ā
Qi Jingshun calmed down her breathing and pouted angrily, "You are all gone, leaving me alone in the temple, how boring." ā
"Then did you tell the master?" Jiang Yuchi frowned.
"Uh...... This, as if I forgot to say it. Qi Jingshun looked at her toes.
Mi Tianyu probably guessed that this seventh senior sister must have secretly run out behind her master's back, so in order to help her little best friend prevent her from being scolded by her senior brother, Mi Tianyu said loudly, "Senior brother, you just let go of senior sister." It just so happened that she brought the spirit with her, and I told you that the spirit nose is smart! ā
"Yes, senior brother, you can let Jingshun follow." Mei Duo also helped them.
Jiang Yuchi hugged his arms, stared at the three of them quietly for a while, and said coldly to Jingshun, "Don't take it as an example!" ā
"Yo roar~~", Qi Shunjing opened his arms and cheered, excitedly surrounding Jiang Yuchi and complimenting him non-stop. Jiang Yuchi, who was annoyed, walked forward quickly, a foot away from the three of them.
The four of them arrived at Luoyi Town at the foot of the Forgotten Worry Peak. The lively town of Luoyi in the past no longer exists, and there is a desolate scene in front of you. There are few pedestrians on the wide streets, and the windows of the houses on both sides of the road are almost all closed, as if a pair of dark eyes are looking at them, strange and desolate.
Mi Tianyu turned his head to everyone and said, "Let's go, let's go in and have a look." ā
Everyone walked along this central street in Luoyi Town, and Jiang Yuchi, who was walking in front, came to a house and peeked through the peeling window paper. In only two or three seconds, I saw him suddenly turn around and wave to everyone, signaling for them to come over.
Through the window, the four of them saw a rare scene:
There was a family in the house, men and women, old and young, but they all stopped breathing and were stiff, and their skin was as black and dry as charcoal, as if they had been scorched by fire.
Qi Jingshun exclaimed directly in fear, but he was afraid that he would be heard by the pedestrians on the road, so he quickly covered his mouth with his hand.
Fortunately, Mi Tianyu was originally from a surgical background, whether it was when he was studying or when he went to work in the hospital later, he had never seen a corpse, and he still had a good heart. But it was the first time she had seen such a strange corpse today.
In order to get accurate information, everyone pushed open the door of this house and walked in, not afraid of the horror of the corpse. Mi Tianyu and Mei Duo studied the corpses, while Jiang Yuchi observed the other details of the house on the side, and only Qi Jingshun looked at them nervously with a spiritual illusion.
"Let's go, let's go look elsewhere." After the inspection, the rice day rain built yƬ road.
The four of them left the premises and checked the rest of the street along the street. They found that two-thirds of the people in Luoyi Town had turned into the terrifying corpses just now, and the remaining one-third were either suffering from illness, and some had not yet had any problems.
So they randomly called a local villager to chat, and asked him to tell the four of them about some of the eating habits and daily life of the people in the town, as well as whether there are some collective activities in the town recently.
The villager talked a lot, almost including their usual activities. For example, the people of Luoyi Town take grain as their staple food, like to drink the sweet well water in the town, and most of the activities on weekdays are in the town, and there are several merchants who sell goods from nearby villages. Speaking of this, the villager shook his head regretfully, as if he felt sorry for the merchants.
Mi Tianyu looked at his senior brother without a trace, and motioned for him to send the villager away first. Jiang Yuchi received the instructions from his junior sister, nodded knowingly, got up and came to the villager, gave him a small piece of broken silver and sent him away.
After sending the villager away, the four of them came to a very remote place surrounded by open space and talked about some of their opinions.
Senior Sister Mei Duo started first, "I think, judging from the changes in those corpses just now, the source of these people's disease should come from the inside, and then erode to the surface little by little, so they will have symptoms of headache and nausea in the early stage, and carbonization of the skin in the later stage." If you want to keep it all the time, it should be more troublesome, and you need a combination of witchcraft and witchcraft. I can configure the witch medicine, witchcraft, there will be little sister Lao. ā
"Well, I'm fine. But my spiritual power is limited now, and I'm afraid I can't treat it on a large scale, but what I need most now is to bring the plague under control this morning, otherwise not only Luoyi Town will suffer, but other surrounding villages and towns will also be in trouble. Mi Tianyu said seriously.
"Uh...... I, I was scared and didn't dare to look at it. Qi Shunjing lowered her head embarrassedly. But everyone knew that she was cowardly, and they didn't blame her. Psyche kindly licked her hand and comforted her.
Everyone turned their eyes to Senior Brother Jiang Yuchi's body again, only to see him holding his arms and thinking for a while, and said thoughtfully, "I suspect that this plague is man-made!" ā
