The carriage traveled for a long time, and it was almost evening, and when it came to a large town, the streets could be seen to be very prosperous, but now they looked depressed, and most of the shops were closed. Wu Jinbao got out of the car and found a big car shop, ordered to live in the store to rest, a group of people were busy calling the room to eat and drink horses, the shop guy saw a large group of people, very attentive, busy before and after waiting, the guest rooms in the store are all big rooms, Wu Jinbao wants the guy to open two big rooms, the guy chattered and said: "Okay, okay, but, in addition to the shop, we also have the upper room, like you, the master, plus a upper room, it will not cost a few more money." ”

Wu Jinbao said: "Don't be wordy, just open two." ”

After eating, the group went to bed early. Wu Jinbao and Hu Xuan and Shi Suo shared a room, and Hu Shi and the two were surrounded by several soldiers.

I don't know how long I slept, Hu Shuan was woken up by a strange noise, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that Wu Jinbao, who was sleeping next to him, had already gotten up, and the two people next to him were also asking each other: "There is movement." "What sound?" Then I saw Wu Jinbao walking out of the room in a cloak. After a while, I heard Wu Jinbao shouting outside, "Ah, get up, get up." ”

The people in the house woke up and got up in a mess, and Hu Bolt and Shi Suo also got up with everyone and rushed outside the house, and saw that the door of the other room next to them was wide open, and Wu Jinbao had already lit candles inside.

Looking in through the wide open door, the five or six people who were asleep inside were still asleep motionless, as if they were deaf to the noise outside, Wu Jinbao called one by one, but none of them woke up.

Hu Shuan was taken aback, he entered the house with several other people, and put his hand into the nostrils of a man lying in the shop, but he was not breathing, and he was already out of breath.

Several others also went to turn over the people who were lying still, and found that all of them were not breathing, and some of them were stiff. In less than a night, all of them have died.

Wu Jinbao instructed his subordinates to inspect inside and outside the store, and there was no suspicious figure in sight, and the shopkeeper and his men also came to find it, and went to the room where the accident occurred in their clothes, and found that so many people had died, and the boss was so frightened that he couldn't speak, and he trembled vigorously "this, this, ......and this".

After a period of commotion, the sky was already dark, Wu Jinbao discussed with a few other people, and said to the shopkeeper: "You have killed so many of our brothers here, we should report the case to the local police and garrison, but we still have urgent matters now, and we will deal with this matter when we come back. ”

The boss heard that they didn't report the case for the time being, so he nodded again and again, and didn't ask them for the money for the hotel. Wu Jinbao ordered to leave quickly after eating, and the remaining five or six people, Hu Bolt and Shi Suo, had breakfast early, then set up three carriages and set off in a hurry.

The number of people was reduced by half, and the carriage became empty, but Wu Jinbao always rode in the same car with Hu Shi and the others, and was quite polite to them along the way, saying "Mr. Hu, Mr. Shi", Hu Shi and the two were lukewarm to him, and accosted him without a word.

Seeing a large village in front of him, Wu Jinbao ordered to feed the horses, and walked to a well at the edge of the village, and his men stopped the carriage, some went to feed the horses, and some went to the village to buy food.

At this moment, a melon seller came over with a basket of yellow apricots and shouted: "Big sweet apricots, soft and sweet, cheap and delicious." ”

Wu Jinbao saw it, beckoned the dealer to stop, took out the money, and bought a few catties, those few people saw that the apricots were bright and bright, and they came over to grab the apricots to eat.

Hu Xuan saw it, and also walked over with Shi Suo to get the apricots, the two of them each grabbed a handful, went to the well to carry water to wash the apricots, and suddenly heard someone next to him "ouch ouch" screamed, someone shouted: "You can't eat it, this apricot is poisonous." ”

Hu Xuan and Shi Suo were taken aback, and when they got up, they saw that the two people who had eaten apricots just now were holding their stomachs and screaming, looking pained, and one of them was spitting yellow water "wow", and Wu Jinbao took out his gun and hurriedly shouted: "Catch the apricot seller." ”

Looking for the apricot seller again, he had already run away, and when he looked down the street, he only saw a figure for a moment, and he couldn't find it.

A car driver asked Wu Jinbao: "Do you want to chase it?" Wu Jinbao shook his head, "The situation ahead is unknown, rashly chasing after it, there is no benefit, hurry up and eat, finish eating and go on the road, find a doctor to prescribe some antidote and take it on the road." ”

Fortunately, among the people who were in a hurry to eat apricots just now, only two people were heavier, and the others were fine. Everyone threw away the apricots, hurriedly finished eating, fed the animals, and got up again on the road. The two who were more poisoned were lying in the car and kept screaming.

After some tossing, more than ten people at the time of departure, less than half of them were able to move, and the road ahead became more and more desolate, and sometimes there was not a village for half a day, and the eyes were full of drought and desolation.

After walking for a while, in the evening, I met a few dilapidated small villages, but there was no place to eat and stay in a carriage and horse shop, everyone was tired and hungry, and it was easy to come to a larger village, there was a small restaurant at the entrance of the village, but the door was open, Wu Jinbao said: "Have dinner here, if there is no place to stay in the village, we will camp in the carriage or on the floor." ”

The rice shop is not big, only the noodle soup meatloaf can be sold, these people have been running for a long time, they are all hungry and thirsty, they are urging to hurry up and serve the food, the guy in the rice shop nodded attentively: "Yes, yes, gentlemen, please, noodle soup meatloaf, white dry side dishes, it will be good immediately." ”

After a while, the hot noodle soup was served, and several people lowered their heads and snorted to drink the soup, and the man brought meat patties, side dishes, and brought out a jar of soju, Wu Jinbao said: "We don't drink." ”

The guy nodded and said, "Yes, yes, if you don't drink, you won't drink, but ......" His face was a little strange. With a hippie smiling expression, he stood next to him and looked at Wu Jinbao.

Wu Jinbao has lost troops in the past two days, and he has been more careful, seeing that the guy is standing next to him and not moving, he is a little strange, he raised his head, and asked while drinking soup: "But what?" ”

The guy laughed: "However, if you don't drink, you don't necessarily not get drunk." ”

"What did you say?" Wu Jinbao was taken aback, and suddenly felt that something was wrong with his body, so he hurriedly reached out to touch the gun in his arms, glared at the guy and said, "Who are you......" Before he finished speaking, his body was crooked, and he fell down.

The people who drank soup and ate cakes here were also the same as Wu Jinbao, one after another, and they all fell down.
