In the face of Liu Zhou's flattery, Zhang Huairen habitually accepted.

But conceit is conceited, determination is determined, Zhang Huairen is not a completely brainless person, otherwise, it would not be possible to sit in the position of the capital guard of the north from a small county in just a few years.

Liu Zhou's thoughts were not completely unreasonable, so Zhang Huairen thought about it for a while and made a decision.

"Left and right, didn't those two people go to Liuzhuang? After a while, you go and pass on the letter, let the people over there pay attention to it, and if you see it, you will secretly clean it up.

Anyway, it is an epidemic area, and if someone is looking for it in the future, it is easy to say. ”

"Yes! Subordinates will do it! ”

After receiving the order, Liu Zhou immediately set about it.

Those two people left the city an hour ago now, and when they arrived in Liuzhuang, they were afraid that it would be tomorrow, so if they sent the message now, they would be able to arrive in about half a day.

Thinking so, Liu Zhou immediately repaired the book and used a carrier pigeon to send it to Liuzhuang.

The distance between Liuzhuang and Jinyang is not very far, if it is an ordinary horse, it can be reached in a day, and the horses of Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen are Jiang Tingbai's treasure horses that can travel thousands of miles a day, so it usually takes a day's journey, and they arrived in half a day.

On the way to Liuzhuang after leaving Jinyang, the two gradually began to notice that something was wrong.

Jinyang seems to be peaceful and prosperous, and under the bath of the emperor's grace, it seems that nothing has happened. But on the way here, the small towns and Zhuangzi that I passed through seemed to be ruined and withered, and the people were struggling to make a living.

Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen saw it in their eyes and remembered it in their hearts, this northern border was guarding Zhang Huairen, and there was really a problem.

Before arriving at the last village in front of Liuzhuang, Cold Moon stopped.

Although the two did not discuss, Ye Jiuchen and Leng Yue had the same idea, and Liuzhuang at this time might not be able to enter. Even if you go in, after all, it is the place where the epidemic first broke out, and I don't know if anyone is there.

So, the two of them just paused at the closest place to find out the news.

Thinking about it, the two of them did not walk towards the village.

At the entrance of the village there is an old locust tree that has withered, thicker than the sycamore in the courtyard of Chunjiang Tower and Luoyuxuan, it seems that the old man has survived for many years, but he doesn't know why he died, desolate and weird branches, like the tentacles of the devil, opening his teeth and dancing claws to shroud the whole village in a gloom.

There was a black crow standing on the branch, the crow's two equally black eyes, since Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen appeared, they had been staring at them directly, without blinking for a moment.

Leng Yue originally wanted to ignore it, but the moment she and Ye Jiuchen entered the village, the crow on the old locust tree suddenly chirped twice without warning.

"Quack-quack-quack-"

The rough and hoarse screams, coupled with the empty, dead-like village in front of you, actually have a sense of déjà vu of a horror movie.

Leng Yue turned her head slightly unpleasantly and glared at the crow in the tree.

Who told you to call it?

Did you get the consent of the old lady?

The crow stood on the tree, a little aggrieved: "......"

You're a bit unreasonable, aren't you?

Leng Yue: "I'm a woman, I don't need to be reasonable!" ”

Raven again: "......"

You're good-looking, you're right.

"Quack" a few more times, and the crow fluttered its wings and flew away.

Not like a woman.

Ye Jiuchen stood beside Leng Yue, but at this time, he didn't notice the wave of high-quality, silent spiritual exchanges that had just taken place between Leng Yue and the crow.

His dark eyes, as sharp as an eagle, watched carefully as far as he could see.

The village only looks like a dead city, but in fact it is still inhabited, and the green smoke rising from the chimneys of every house, as well as the doors and windows that have just been closed, and the peeping eyes that faintly peek through the cracks in the doors and windows, all show the oppression and fear of this city.

Seeing this, Ye Jiuchen couldn't help but twist his eyebrows slightly.

It seems that the epidemic has affected this village, but fortunately, it should not have spread here.

But this is the closest village to Liuzhuang, and if it doesn't spread here, then it proves that other places should be fine.

If it's okay, why riot?

Or is there actually some unknown engine in this whole thing.

While Ye Jiuchen was thinking, Leng Yue also quickly observed the situation in the entire village.

What Ye Jiuchen discovered, she naturally found out. It's just that her ideas are more modern.

In her opinion, because of the impact of the epidemic, the people in this village are afraid to go out at will and come into contact with people at will.

But they may not know that there are countless ways for the real epidemic to spread, and sometimes it is not that you can really ensure that you are safe without going out and not coming into contact with people.

This is especially true at a time when medical conditions and living conditions are extremely backward.

Thinking of this, Leng Yue took out a cloth towel and handed it to Ye Jiuchen.

"Blindfolded."

Hearing Leng Yue's voice, Ye Jiuchen eased his mind slightly, lowered his eyes, saw Leng Yueqing in front of him, and thought of what he had faintly seen before, those figures who closed doors and windows, and peeked through the cracks in the doors and windows, their faces were also covered with similar things.

Ye Jiuchen understood, Leng Yue didn't let herself be covered this time for the previous reason, so she took the cloth towel without saying a word.

See the results of Ye Jiuchen. Leng Yue herself was not ambiguous, took out another piece, and when she was covering her face, a soft and glutinous voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"Are you from outside?"

Well?

Where does the sound come from?

Who's talking?

Leng Yue listened to the voice and looked for it, only to find that she didn't know when, there was a little boy standing in front of her, although the little boy had a cloth towel tied to his face, but he couldn't hide his white and chubby face.

The little boy has a pair of big round eyes, and his appearance is extremely simple and cute, so it looks like a huge glutinous rice dumpling, which makes people can't help but want to step forward and rub two handfuls when they see it.

Thinking so in his heart, Leng Yue did indeed do so.

didn't answer the question, and rubbed it directly on the little fat man's face.

Ye Jiuchen: "......"

Little boy: "......"

The little boy was stunned at first, and then cried out with a "wow".

Cold Moon: "......"

So uncarried?

Ye Jiuchen was very surprised by this little boy who suddenly appeared, but before he could ask anything, he saw Leng Yue rubbing someone's face without saying a word, and after rubbing and crying, he took a step back with a disgusted face.

Ye Jiuchen shook his head helplessly, and hurriedly squatted down and squatted in front of the little boy.

"Children, what is there to say, is it okay not to cry?"

"Wow-"

The little boy cried even louder.

Ye Jiuchen: "......"

Ye Jiuchen was also dealing with a child for the first time, so naturally he had no experience, so when he saw this child crying so miserably, he was a little at a loss for a while.

Perhaps the little boy's cry was so loud that many people opened the doors and windows and looked in their direction through a gap, but none of them dared to come out to see what was going on.

Being looked at by so many people Leng Yue is naturally not afraid, but the fat boy in front of him cried endlessly, as if he had bullied him, this pot can't be carried casually.

Thinking of this, Leng Yue immediately lowered her face, and glared at the little boy viciously with a pair of frost-covered eyes.

"Don't cry, shut your mouth for me!"

Maybe Leng Yue's eyes and expression were too cold and scary, or maybe her tone was too fierce, in short, when the little chubby boy heard her say this, he really didn't cry.

It's just that with a pair of big tearful eyes, whipped and whipped, driving the chubby flesh on the face to tremble and tremble, and Leng Yue, who saw it, wanted to masturbate again.

Ye Jiuchen was a little speechless.

It turns out that even children are afraid of the cold moon?

Thinking like this, Ye Jiuchen couldn't help but smile, but fortunately, the child finally stopped crying.

Thinking of this, Ye Jiuchen couldn't help but gather his mind slightly, and said to the little fat boy in an extremely gentle, spring-like voice: "***, is your house here?" ”

The little boy first rolled his eyes, looked at Leng Yue, and after perceiving Leng Yue's ill-intentioned and eager eyes, he decisively chose to talk to Ye Jiuchen.

"That's right! My home isn't here, why am I here? ”

Ye Jiuchen: "......"

It makes sense, I can't argue with it.

Leng Yue watched from the sidelines, but he was a little happy.

Taking two steps forward, Leng Yue coldly raised her hand and slapped the little boy's head, and before the little boy howled again, the prophet said precautionarily:

"Don't cry, no matter how bitter it is, continue to rub your face."

When the little boy heard this, he really held back the tears that had just been brewing, covered his face, and looked at Leng Yue with a frightened face.

Woo woo, this sister is so scary, so scary, Mom, I want to go home.

Although Ye Jiuchen didn't agree with Leng Yue's way of scaring children, it was obvious that this little fat man really ate hard rather than soft, so he had no choice but to let Leng Yue come.

Seeing that the little fat man really didn't cry, Leng Yue raised her eyebrows proudly.

"I'll answer your questions well, do you hear me?"

"I hear you."

The little chubby boy was very obedient.

Leng Yue glanced at Ye Jiuchen, Ye Jiuchen was helpless, and continued to ask the little boy.

"Why did you get out alone? Why don't these people go out? ”

"There is a plague in Liuzhuang next door, and the village chief said that he was afraid that it would spread to our village, so let everyone stay at their own house and not go out."

"If you don't let you go out, you still go out, you're quite rebellious."

When Leng Yue heard this, she couldn't help but interject.

When the little boy heard this, he straightened his chest and glanced at Leng Yue with great smugness but contempt.

"I'm not called rebellious, this is called bravery, do you have any culture!"

Cold Moon: "......"

Ye Jiuchen: "......"
