The matter of leaving the city was finally resolved satisfactorily, and after the Chen family paid a lot of price, the officers and soldiers of the city gate finally worked overtime, and the matter of their lack of dozens of people disappeared silently and was no longer pursued.

There was no danger to walk out of Shengjing City, it seemed that because the biggest stone in his heart had been put down, etc., as soon as the breath that the head of the Chen caravan had held on before relaxed, his whole person fell, and he couldn't even walk around, and the rash on his body became more and more crazy, almost spreading his entire body.

At the same time, most of the guys in their caravan also showed various symptoms of discomfort, and the few guys who were sick with the caravan leader before and after also became seriously ill and collapsed.

Ma San and they took everything seriously, compared to these caravan guys who were unknowingly infected by them earlier, it would take some time for these actively infected team members to really get sick later, so they still had enough time to carry out the plan they had made before.

"Zla!!"

After a dull sound of a long knife entering the flesh, the temporary camp where the Chen caravan was originally located was now dark, and there were bloody corpses of the men lying on the ground everywhere.

Around the camp, more than 40 Hongtang soldiers went back and forth between the corpses, searching for survivors who might have even a trace of breath, and then mended the lucky man until they were no longer breathless.

"Platoon commander, none of the fifty-seven members of the Chen caravan survived."

After searching for more than half an hour, until it was confirmed that none of the survivors had appeared, Ma San took his teammates to meet Niu Si and report the results to him.

With the conditions of mental calculation and unintentional calculation, coupled with the existence of the strong personal strength of the Hongtang soldiers, how could the Chen caravan survive, in the dead of night when everyone was resting, Ma San and they almost didn't pay any price, so they cleaned up the guys of the caravan who worked overtime.

"Why?"

The only one who survived was the Chen principal, who was seriously ill and left to rest in his tent, even if Ma San and them did not do it, this caravan captain who had been infected with smallpox and was terminally ill was already dying.

"I'm sorry, Boss Chen, you are infected with smallpox plague, we must not let you bring this epidemic back to the Guannai!"

The other party was already a dead man's existence, so there was no need for Ma San and them to deceive this caravan captain who was actually very helpful to them, and truthfully informed the other party of the reason.

"God, smallpox!!"

The caravan's face was originally not good, but after hearing the other party's words at this time, he had no color, and his heart-like expression matched with the acne that had now spread to his face, but it was indescribably dark and terrifying, like a terrible ghost.

"Hehe, hehe!!"

The more time comes to death, the more the will and spirit of man seem to be more transparent, and in an instant he understands something: "It turns out that you already know what disease I have, aren't you afraid that I will infect you?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, with you as a companion, I can be regarded as avenging the guys, we are waiting for you on Huangquan Road!"

The other party has long known about his illness, and the other party is not a doctor or the like, I am afraid that the smallpox he suffers from is related to the other party, and then think about the so-called female dependents who they have been wrapped tightly before, the caravan principal suddenly thought of it, and looked at Ma San and them with resentful eyes, cursing them.

"Don't worry, if there is no accident, in addition to us, there will be many people who will come to your funeral, and you are worth dying."

Ma San didn't care about the other party's curse at all, but smiled kindly and said.

"Difficult, is it ......?"

A person who can be the captain of a caravan and deal with all the forces in the official face of the Qing Dynasty will not be stupid, and now that the brain of a person is dying, the head of the Chen family suddenly thought of something, and then looked at the group of people in front of him with a look of horror: "Devil!" You are all devils!! ”

"So what, if it's not my race, its heart will be different!!"

Niu Si looked at the dying Chen family leader contemptuously, and then raised the long knife in his hand: "Boss Chen, it's time to go on the road!" ”

"Poof!!"

Blood splattered, wetting the countryside and other lands, staining a piece of soil red.

"Pack up, bury all the corpses on the spot, and transport the rest of the goods to a hidden place to hide them first!!"

After solving the last live mouth, Niu Si wiped the blood on the long knife in his hand, sent the knife into the sheath and commanded.

"Yes!"

More than 40 team members took action.

From the very beginning, Ma San and the others had no intention of letting go of this group of Chen caravan buddies who were covering for them, because they themselves could not guarantee whether any of these guys who had been in contact with smallpox patients for such a long time were infected with the smallpox virus.

Although the Hongmen Health Bureau has a very in-depth understanding of the smallpox virus, and knows that as long as strict protective measures are taken, there is basically a seventy or eighty percent certainty that the epidemic will not be transmitted to the members of the Chen caravan by Ma San and his group of smallpox patients, but even if there is only a one-third chance of being infected, Ma San and the others do not dare to take this risk and let the Chen caravan appear in the Guannei.

Not to mention, now that the Chen caravan has shown signs of smallpox epidemic, and the Chen principal, who bears the brunt, can almost be diagnosed with smallpox, then Ma San and they are even more unlikely to be soft-hearted, after all, the people in the pass are all Chinese children, if they can reduce some of their possibility of epidemics, Ma San is willing to do anything, let alone just kill more than 50 people.

"Let's do what we agreed before!"

Pack up everything, the sky is just dawning, the place where the Chen caravan camped and rested last night is some distance from the avenue, presumably it will not be discovered for a while, Ma San and they will start to make the next plan.

"Take care, platoon commander!!"

"Take care!!"

Niu Si patted Ma San on the shoulder, their group of nearly 100 dead brothers and brothers, now there are only about 40 of them left, and whether the next action of these 40 or so people can survive the destruction of the smallpox virus and survive the risk of being chased and killed, it all depends on the will of God.

"But if any of us survive the death of smallpox, then please inform the brothers of the goods we buried here to the brothers in Dongjiang Town, so that they can dig up these goods and carry them forward, which can be regarded as the last dedication of our brothers!"

On the occasion of separation, Niu Si and Ma San did not forget to make a final contribution to Hongmen, making the final arrangements, and they chose death and sacrifice, but in their eyes, it was more of an indomitable courage, and against the backdrop of the rising sun, the figure of the group seemed to be radiant.
