Chapter 242: Dawn 8
There were four or five people stuffed in the room, Shi Hui and Sun Wei were in front, Li Yang also followed, and Shangguan Lu, who went and returned, walked at the end and closed the door without complaint.
"Lord Shangguan?" Ji Xiang held a grudge and said unceremoniously: "My father-in-law went to accompany his junior sister, what are you doing here." ”
Shangguan Lu couldn't help blushing, she was really immoral just now, but when she saw Xie Ke smoking deflated, she didn't want to be happy in her heart. "I'm not looking for him, but Mrs. Chen, you just let Brother Chen go to Miss Xie like this, isn't it ......?"
She also wanted to say a few more words, it was best to provoke Ji Xiang's jealousy and worry, so that Xie Keyan would not be able to pester Chen Jiean. However, apparently the person concerned didn't have much idea, she smiled lightly and said four words, let it be.
Ji Xiang said that she would not force it, and if Xianggong really had a mind, she would also quit. Just like what she said to Chen Xie An in Dawan Village, as long as she said a word, she would not hesitate to leave.
The people present were shocked when they said this, and Sun Wei pulled her sleeve. However, in a short period of time, she found out Ji Xiang's temperament, and these words were true. But what will happen to a woman who is separated from people.
Shi Hui was on the side, he had long seen that Chen Xie was unhappy, he had heard of this person's reputation before, what was the name of the cold king of the army. "Ji Xiang, don't worry, everything is with the eldest brother. If I really get married, I'm going to let that pair of dogs! Man! The woman is good-looking. ”
As he spoke, he took out the Xinxin pill, this thing was refined by Ge Yunzhang on the prescription given by Ji Xiang, and a burst of fragrance came out of his mouth. Ji Xiang helplessly grabbed the cheap brother who was about to rush out, he was not in good health, and he still wanted to fight. Besides, I don't know who said it, Chen Jie'an is an infatuated donkey who can't pull his head back.
Hurriedly shifting the attention of these people, she asked about the recent situation in Wushui Village.
I didn't expect such a big change to happen here in Wenjia Village these days.
Liu Sanniang committed suicide, Dan'er caught a cold, her condition worsened, and her days were numbered. There is more than one fine work in Wushui Village, and all the people caught are dead soldiers raised in Kyoto's noble gate. If this poisonous plague has nothing to do with them, then Ji Xiang doesn't believe a word. What's worse is that the medicinal materials are sold out, and no one in the nearby county seat of Ling'an dares to sell them.
There is also a good side, Yulongfang did its best to send all the spiritual spring water to Ling'an by boat with the medicinal materials that could be bought. Ye Su, Zhou Kang and Ying Chaotian all wrote to him, and Ji Xiang had an indescribable emotion after reading it roughly. It seems that the sadness and apprehension that have been blocked in recent days have been released, and she now has a little sense of reality, the poisonous plague in Ling'an is not a game, but a human life.
If you don't act, more people will die.
In addition, there are also the people of Ling'an. They each formed an anti-epidemic team, and each prime man patrolled the countryside with homemade weapons. Through the popularization of the county lord, almost everyone knows the habits of poisonous people, and it can also effectively avoid casualties. But just like that, the number of dead reached 500.
This is still a few of the larger counties in Ling'an, and in fact, there are almost no few dead villages such as Qian and Li.
"Lord Shangguan, how many people actually died?" Ji Xiang's left hand trembled slightly, and she didn't seem to be able to breathe.
Shangguan Lu couldn't bear to turn his head, "Three thousand six hundred." "This is only a rough estimate, and there are still many villages that have not yet been reached. There were a total of 10,000 people in Ling'an, and almost half of the people lost their lives.
She thought of Laneige, and her nose was sore, and tears welled up unconsciously. The people present did not laugh at Ji Xiang's gaffe. That's how they first learned about it.
After a long time, everyone calmed down, and Ji Xiang talked about the affairs of Wenjia Village in a very nasal voice.
She didn't say it was Chen Gubei, but called him Mr. Chen Jingrun along the title of Jinwa. Inform them that the old gentleman has some research on the poisonous plague, and in a little while, he will be able to succeed.
Sun Wei said: "That's good, I also wrote a letter to the master, he is here, and our chances will be greater." ”
Almost all of them rejoice, if the poisonous plague is solved, Ling'an will be able to come out of the fire and water,
Ji Xiang opened her mouth, and she stopped talking. I told Xianggong before that there is something wrong with this father-in-law, but if you keep getting along, you can only say that it is strange. Thinking about his tragic life, I feel that it is okay to be weird.
After discussing for another half an hour, Ji Xiang's stomach growled, and then she remembered that she had walked the mountain road for a long time and she hadn't eaten yet.
Shangguan Lu was courteous, and the cook prepared for Chen Xie An became Ji Xiang's again.
I don't know what kind of medicine she sells in her gourd, Ji Xiang happened to be hungry, so naturally she didn't have the heart to guess.
Sunhead oblique rod
Another acquaintance came to the courtyard, and Ji Xiang squinted his eyes, seeing that he was not dressed like Chen Jiean, nor as tall as Zhanbei, nor as obscene as Li Yang.
"Who's standing there? It's okay to have something. She has to help Sun Wei later, and Shi Hui also calls her there, and she is very busy.
When he saw that the man did not speak, he leaned against the door and smiled. The sun dizzy on him and took two steps. The light was gone, and the silhouette of the boy became clear little by little.
He put on a light smile and tilted his head like a big curly-haired dog.
"Long time no see, Mrs. Chen."
It was this familiar beginning again, and it was also such a harmless appearance in Hangzhou at that time.
"Lin Xujin? Didn't you study in Hangzhou? "Why did you come to Ling'an? Ji Xiang laughed out loud, reunited after a long absence, meeting old acquaintances in a foreign country, not to mention how happy he was.
She almost ran over, "You come here, does Sister-in-law Lin know?" Also, what are you doing here as a weak scholar, you don't know how dangerous Ling'an is. ”
Thinking of what Shangguan Lu said, she was even more uneasy in her heart. Lin Xujin is still young, if something happens in Ling'an, she will definitely blame herself.
Just as there were excuses in Hangzhou, he has them now.
"Mrs. Chen, you are more imposing than your sister." He laughed, his lips red and his teeth white. "It's actually a coincidence that I'm here, my sister wrote that she was seriously ill, but when she returned to Dawan, she asked me to meet a group of women. In a fit of rage, I sneaked out. When they reached the middle of the road, they left me behind, but fortunately they met Lord Qincha, and then they arrived in Ling'an. ”
This encounter, Ji Xiang is amazing.
Lin Xujin happened to be literate, so he stayed in Wushui Village to do some regular work. overheard Chen Jiean's name, so he hurriedly ran over.
"But it's impossible to send you out now, so stay here with peace of mind." She patted Lin Xujin seriously, "Sister is here, I can cover you." But don't speak ill of me behind my back like you did last time. ”
The boy opened his eyes, and there was only one delicate girl in his eyes. "No, I know Yuhuai is doing well." Changed the name, that's the truth. Ji Xiang and he looked at each other and smiled, and the sadness and helplessness brought by Chen Jie'an were all melted away.
At this time, Chen Jie'an had already left Wushui Village.
After he was pushed away, he did not go to Xie Keyan, but went to the inner city to find the county lord.
learned about Liu Sanniang from Zhanbei, which shows that Ling'an has hidden details in addition to the black boss.
Seeing Yin Ziyue, he went straight to the point and told him what he intended to do.
"You don't have to worry about this matter," Yin Ziyue put down the teacup, and it was a grandmother who was waiting for her. After Yao'er's incident, her suspicions increased, so she found the old man and appointed him. "I'll settle the matter in the county lord's mansion."
Looking at her determined look, she should have found it,
Chen Xie An snorted, there was one more thing, he wanted to send Xie Ke cigarettes back.
"Oh?" She knew that Xie Keyan came specifically for Chen Jiean, and she knew that the woman was not easy to shake off. "What, Gentle Township is not good?"
It's hard to shake off the smoke, and Ji Xiang is not a bully.
I'm really curious what the situation will be when these two people meet.
Or perhaps, Chen Jie'an came to beg him to send away Xie Ke cigarettes at this time, which was a sign of Ji Xiang's victory.
The man didn't speak. Yin Ziyue smiled, "I don't do things that are difficult for strong people, if people are willing, they will naturally escort her back to Kyoto." ”
Seeing that he turned around and was about to leave, the county lord suddenly kept Chen Xie in a serious manner.
"There are two people, I think you should meet."
"Who?"
The county lord made a look, and Mama immediately nodded and walked out first.
"When I see you, I know that I can't help you, and when the plague is over, I will give you an explanation."
Chen Xie An still had something to say, and Mama had already asked him to leave in a regular manner.
Skirting a few verandahs, Mama stopped in front of a courtyard.
"The old slave waits here, and he won't go in."
He hummed and stepped in.
This courtyard is somewhat similar to the Jiangnan courtyard, except that the mellow smell of loess is revealed in the corners.
Quiet, very quiet.
If he didn't know that Yin Ziyue couldn't attack himself at this time, he even thought that she had set a trap and waited for him to enter.
The door was not opened, and there was a gap. Only then did he hear two faint breaths, and when he looked around, there was no one under him. He pushed the door open, and with a creak, startled the fumbling man.
"Huh?" The man was covered in white silk and his voice was hoarse. He only seems to be able to hum twice, and he is mute?
Chen Xie An looked at the man restless and cramped, still groping to stay by the bedside. He looked over, it was a blood-pale woman, "Mo Ning? ”
What the hell is going on!
"Uh-huh? Yes? Ying Yi pricked up his ears, and his head kept turning, as if by this he saw the uninvited guest.
Master, it's a master!
"Ahh Ahhh He kept pointing at himself and Mo Ning in a hoarse voice, as if he could explain the grievances of the past few days.
Ying Yi stumbled to his feet, and he reached out to touch it. Suddenly touched a pair of arms, and he was as happy as a child, and screamed for a long time.
"Don't move. Sit tight. ”
The man's voice was exceptionally steady, and Ying Yi quieted down, "Next, I say, you nod." ”
Uh-huh. Ying Yi nodded.
"Did you come to Ling'an to find us?"
Ying Yi thought for a moment and nodded.
"There's something important to tell us."
Ying Yi nodded excitedly, remembering Yin Ziyue's words, he said in a deep voice, as if he was full of monstrous anger.
"Your injuries are related to the people of the county lord's mansion?"
After a long while, Ying Yi hung his head...... He finally nodded.
Well, that's good. Chen Xie An sneered twice. Yin Ziyue must know something.
