The call in his ears kept echoing, and Gong Lingxi frowned uncomfortably, unable to hear what the man's head was saying, and then woke up leisurely.

Seeing Gong Lingxi open his eyes, Jiang Yuchen's hanging heart let go, "Are you okay?" ”

"Ah Chen, why are you here?" Gong Lingxi got up, it was already dawn outside, she was lying on a bed, Jiang Yuchen was guarding her by the bed, everything that happened last night was still clearly imprinted in her mind.

Jiang Yuchen was stunned, and said lightly: "I passed by." ”

"How did you find me?" Gong Lingxi frowned slightly, obviously not believing this wording, she entered Wangyang City last night, and Wangyang City is like a dead city, how could Jiang Yuchen come here in a good manner?

"When I saw you faint on the ground, I brought you back."

Gong Lingxi touched his head and muttered, "I said some very strange things last night, those words didn't seem to come from me, and I don't know why, it seems that I can't control my body." ”

"You may have had a nightmare, didn't you say you often had nightmares before?" Jiang Yuchen stood up and said calmly, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all.

The moonlight outside the window shone in, Gong Lingxi nodded, and didn't pursue this matter anymore, maybe it was really a dream.

She glanced around, only to find that this room was the guest room of the inn, there was only one city in Wangyang City nearby, where did this inn come from?

"Where is this?"

Jiang Yuchen poured her a cup of tea and said slowly: "An inn in Wangyang City, I passed by here, and there is no other place to live. ”

He said it seriously, as if it was really a helpless move.

"Isn't Wangyang City already a dead city?" Gong Ling looked at him puzzled, full of doubts.

What she saw yesterday was obviously a dead city, could it be a dream?

But if she hadn't experienced those from yesterday, how could she faint and be picked up by Jiang Yuchen?

Gong Lingxi took the tea and took a sip slightly, Jiang Yuchen explained lightly: "It's almost, but there are still living people in Wangyang City, such as the owner of this inn is still alive." ”

Putting down the tea, Gong Lingxi lifted the quilt and found that the red clothes on her body had been taken off, leaving only a thin single coat, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Jiang Yuchen, "Where is my red clothes?" ”

Jiang Yuchen brought the red clothes, put them on the bed, and said warmly: "Don't worry, I didn't do anything to you." ”

Gong Lingxi put on her clothes, and Jiang Yuchen told her everything that had happened in Wangyang City.

It turned out that Wangyang City had been infected with the plague a year ago, when the government reported to the imperial court, the imperial city sent several famous doctors to die here, this plague came strangely, and the contagion was extremely high, how could it not be cured, the imperial court had to sacrifice Wangyang City in order to take care of the overall situation, and none of them survived.

Therefore, Wangyang City has become a dead city, and there are many lonely souls and wild ghosts, and the surrounding cities are called Wangyang City Ghost Town.

"Actually, not all the people in Wangyang City died." Jiang Yuchen said again, picked up a small steamed bun on the table and handed it to Gong Lingxi, "Only those who died with the plague at the beginning, and the rest of the people who didn't get sick hid in the mountains. ”

"Later, when they came out of the mountain, they learned that the imperial court killed innocents indiscriminately, harming a lot of innocent people, and no one dared to come to Wangyang City from then on, everyone thought that the people in Wangyang City were all dead, and the people of Wangyang City were also used to closing the city, just a group of people were alive, without disturbance from the outside world, although the plague killed many people last time, but those who stayed continued to multiply, and now Wangyang City has recovered a lot."

After listening to Jiang Yuchen's tirade, Gong Lingxi's xiaolongbao had already been eaten, and she nodded approvingly.

Jiang Yuchen was also accustomed to her indifference, "The people of Wangyang City are very hostile to the people of the Imperial City, I am afraid that they deliberately sent children to design that one because they knew that the army of the Imperial City passed by yesterday." ”

Gong Lingxi frowned slightly, "That's not a child." ”

At first, she also thought it was a human and didn't listen to Xiaoyu's words, but after the little boy made a strange sound, she believed that the little boy was indeed an evil spirit.

I can't see it on the surface, but in fact, I have been possessed.

Jiang Yuchen smiled lightly, "He's just a child, don't believe it, he will follow us on the road later." ”

Gong Lingxi looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw a little boy in the distance wiping the table with a rag, the little boy turned his head and smiled at Gong Lingxi.

It was the little boy from yesterday.

"Why did you take him?" Gong Lingxi said slightly displeased.

This little boy is not simple at first glance, more things are better than less things, isn't it cumbersome to carry?

Jiang Yuchen frowned slightly, and said with an embarrassed face: "I don't know, he has to follow us, saying that he will follow us as a cow and a horse, and he can't drive us away." ”

Gong Lingxi was silent.

The sky outside was a little brighter again, the sun had risen to the center of the sky, and Gong Lingxi silently finished the food in front of him.

It was noon when she woke up, and they were now eating on the first floor of the inn.

There is really an inn in Wangyang City, but there are very few people here, there are only three people here, Jiang Yuchen and the little boy.

When she saw Wangyang City yesterday, she really felt that Wangyang City was a dead city, lifeless, without the slightest breath of a living person, if it was really inhabited here, how could it be such a scene.

But she believed Jiang Yuchen's words.

"Smack."

The tightly closed door was suddenly kicked open, Gong Lingxi looked up suddenly, only to see a woman walking in with a baby in her arms, she looked at Jiang Yuchen, crying and crying: "Doctor, please save my child, save him, he hasn't opened his eyes for a long time." ”

Gong Lingxi was stunned for a moment, this tone and words actually made her feel a little familiar.

It's like one of the whispers I heard yesterday.

Jiang Yuchen stood up and was about to walk towards the woman, when Gong Lingxi grabbed his hand violently and said coldly, "Don't go." ”

"This girl, please be kind enough to save my child, my child is sick, he has not eaten for a long time, please have mercy on us." The woman's weeping grew louder.

The little boy put down the rag in his hand and walked over, glancing at Jiang Yuchen, "Childe, do you need to prepare anything?" ”

Jiang Yuchen glanced at Gong Lingxi and curled the corners of his lips, "It's okay, I'll be fine." ”

The worry in Gong Lingxi's eyes warmed his heart.

The woman sobbed a few times and walked towards Jiang Yuchen, although the clothes she was wearing were made of coarse cloth, simple and simple, but she looked clean, and there was nothing dirty except for the tears on her face.

Jiang Yuchen instructed the little boy, "Go and prepare some antipyretic herbs." ”

Gong Lingxi opened her mouth, some words stuck in her throat and couldn't be spoken, she sighed, and finally didn't say anything.

Maybe she was too careful, and the woman in front of her looked like an ordinary person, not like a bad person at all.
