Qian Qianqian and Xue Yi are both dressed in men's clothes, with green silk crowns, although their bodies are much thinner than ordinary men, but their every move is heroic, and they have no intention of ordinary men, no one has seen it for so long, how can this peddler see it?

"Your eyesight is really good, what others can't see, you can see it so easily, it seems that you are really wronged by being just a small stall vendor."

Qian Qianqian looked at the vendor carefully, Xiao Mohan said that there are many spies from the central country in this Jin City, and most of those spies can be disguised, so even if they pretend to be a small vendor, it is normal.

The peddler also seemed to realize that he had lost his words, and immediately lowered his head and saluted Qian Qianqian, although his expression was still calm, but his attitude was very respectful.

"Childe, it's a small one who is too talkative, and the little one didn't mean to say it, and please don't blame Childe."

The peddler immediately changed his tune, and gave his hand to Qian Qianqian again and again, but he was a smart and clever person, but such a clever person should not be a hawker.

"You are very smart, with your eyesight and ingenuity, it is too condescending to be a small vendor, you go with me, I will not treat you badly."

Qian Qianqian didn't leave, her eyes were full of temptation, such a person must not be simple, if it is really a spy of the central country, he must get rid of it as soon as possible, if not, it is not a good thing to bring it back and introduce it to Xiao Mohan.

"Thank you for the kindness of the child, but the small one has no strengths except for the craftsmanship of making lanterns, and he has no ambitions since he was a child, and he just wants to live in peace, so don't drag down the son."

The peddler humbly refused, but the better his attitude, the more suspicious Qian Qianqian felt in her heart, it stands to reason that most of these small merchants and hawkers are not literate and ink, and they don't know what etiquette is, they have always only looked at their clothes to recognize people, she and Xue Yi are dressed in coarse linen clothes today, no different from ordinary people, this hawker should not be so deferential to them.

"This ordinary person would have laughed from ear to ear when he had such a good opportunity, but you have repeatedly refused, are you afraid that I will not be able to pay your salary? Let you go and do the work for me for nothing? ”

Qian Qianqian's face did not change, and as she spoke, she deliberately exposed the money bag on her waist, so that the vendor could take a look and have no worries.

The peddler also saw her purse, but instead of the joy she expected, he remained calm and did not change his mind.

Childe laughed, how could the little one think that? I'm just afraid that I can't bear the heavy responsibility, and I ate the rice of the son's family in vain, just now the small one is not good, it's better to do this, and the small one will send you a lantern, which will be regarded as an apology to you, and please don't have the same general knowledge as the small. ”

The peddler accompanied the smiling face, took a lantern, and stuffed it to Qian Qianqian, wanting to settle things as soon as possible, since this is the case, Qian Qianqian has nothing to say, this person comes and goes, she can't take the hawker away forcibly without evidence.

"Thank you very much." Qian Qianqian took the lantern, thanked her, and then walked to the side with Xue Yi.

"You go and keep an eye on the vendor, and when there are fewer people, you take him down, I always feel that he is not simple."

Qian Qianqian lowered her voice and commanded in Xue Yi's ear, her expression suddenly solemnized.

Xue Yi also thought the same as her, the hawker was unusual, she could see it, and Xue Yi could naturally see it, so she immediately did as she said, but the moment Xue Yi turned around, there was no one behind her.

"Where's the vendor?" Xue Yi frowned, asked nervously, Qian Qianqian also turned her head immediately, only to see that the stall selling lanterns was still there, but the person had long since disappeared.

Qian Qianqian looked around, except for those people, there was no suspicious figure at all, it seemed that the vendor knew that he was being targeted, so he ran away early in the morning.

"It's still a step slower, and it's so a thief, this peddler really has a problem." Qian Qianqian bit her lower lip tightly, and felt a lot of unwillingness in her heart, she obviously had that opportunity just now, but she didn't seize it well, which was a pity.

"A hawker must not be able to make any waves, Boss Qian, don't take it seriously, as long as he dares to come out, I will definitely be able to catch him."

Although Xue Yi also felt sorry, she didn't show it on the surface, and still said it a little lightly, feeling that even if the vendor had a problem, she couldn't do anything.

Qian Qianqian suddenly lost the mood to put the lanterns, walked straight to the river, and randomly put the two lanterns in her hand into the river, the lanterns floated, floating with the direction of the water, and I don't know where they would float.

On the second day, something was wrong in this Jincheng, many small merchants and vendors did not come out, but the pharmacy was full, and those folk Langzhong were busy all day long, after seeing this one, they had to rush to the next one, and the originally lively Jincheng was suddenly deserted.

"General, many people have been infected one after another, and the medicinal materials in this city are simply not enough, several pharmacies have closed, and even so, the condition of those people has not been alleviated, but more people have been infected, and many people have speculated that this is likely to be a plague."

Steward Li went to report to Xiao Mohan, he had been staring at the situation in Jincheng for the past few days, so he didn't dare to hide it.

"It was fine a few days ago, how can it suddenly be like this?" Xiao Mohan raised his eyes suddenly, his brows tightened, and his face became gloomy.

"This subordinate didn't know that this disease seemed to come out overnight, which caught people off guard, and since the people went to the moat to put off the lanterns on the first day of the new year, the disease has gradually emerged."

Steward Li pondered for a moment in his heart, which made Xiao Mohan suspicious, this disease is menacing and strange, it must not be simple to make so many people infected at once.

The water source in the moat supplies the lives of all the people in the city, if there is a problem with the water, it is not surprising that so many people are sick, other than that, Xiao Mohan really can't think of any other reason.

"What are you doing here? Why are you bringing in so many medicinal herbs? ”

Qian Qianqian went out for a walk, and as soon as she walked to the backyard, she saw the family carrying bamboo baskets, which were full of herbs, and smelled bitter.

"This is all ordered by Steward Li, there is an epidemic outside, many people are infected, Steward Li is afraid that our general's mansion will also be infected, so he takes precautions and uses these medicinal materials to prevent it."

A family member stopped and explained in a fifteen-and-fifteen-ten manner that Qian Qianqian had never been out since the first day of the new year, so he didn't know that this kind of thing had happened outside.

"What? Does General Xiao know about this? Qian Qianqian was shocked, and then asked.

"Steward Li has already reported to the general, so the general should know."

The family Ding Bi responded respectfully, Qian Qianqian couldn't help but turn her head to look at Xue Yi, she had never heard anything from Xue Yi's mouth in the past few days.

"Did you already know about it, but you just deliberately didn't tell me?"

Qian Qianqian frowned, her face was a little gloomy, although Xue Yi followed her all day, but after all, she was Xiao Mohan's person, she didn't believe that Xue Yi didn't hear a little wind.

"Boss Qian, you have wronged me, I don't know anything, and I just heard about it now."

Xue Yi was a little aggrieved, lowered her head slightly, and said very sincerely, just when Qian Qianqian was suspicious, Xiao Mohan walked straight over.

"Xue Yi really didn't know about it, not long after this happened, the news hasn't spread yet."

Xiao Mohan stood behind Qian Qianqian, opened his mouth lightly, his eyes were not shocked, and there was no superfluous expression on his face, which made people wonder through.

Qian Qianqian calmed down a little, lowered her eyes slightly, worried and embarrassed in her heart, and after thinking for a while, she slowly spoke: "Then what are you going to do now?" ”

"I'm going out to check it out for myself, why don't you come with me?" Xiao Mohan lifted his thin lips lightly, as if he saw Qian Qianqian's thoughts, and his voice was low, revealing indescribable calmness.

"Hmm." Qian Qianqian nodded, and then followed in Xiao Mohan's footsteps, Xue Yi and Steward Li also followed behind, several of them were dressed in disguise, and there was no difference in their clothes.

It's just that Xiao Mohan has an extraordinary temperament, and he is not an ordinary person at first glance, but this can't be helped, after all, his bearing and appearance are here, even if he smears the ashes on his face, he can't hide his elegance.

Qian Qianqian looked at this road and looked a little familiar, and immediately guessed something in her heart, raised her head, looked at Xiao Mohan's face, and whispered: "Are you going to the moat?" ”

"Not bad." Xiao Mohan didn't hide it in the slightest, his eyes kept staring ahead, without the slightest flicker.

"I have to tell you something, I didn't think it mattered at first, but since you suspect the moat, I think it's a little strange."

Qian Qianqian thought of the previous vendor, she didn't plan to care about it at first, but now that Xiao Mohan went straight to the moat, she also felt that this matter was important.

"The vendor you met on the first day of the new year is indeed a spy of the central country, and the water in the moat should have also been manipulated, Steward Li knows some medical skills, take him there, just in time to test it."

Xiao Mohan seemed to know what Qian Qianqian wanted to say, and a few words pointed out the doubts in her heart, she subconsciously looked at Xue Yi, if she guessed correctly, Xue Yi should have told Xiao Mohan about this.

"The general asked his subordinates to protect your safety, so his subordinates naturally had to report to the general in every detail."

Xue Yi also saw Qian Qianqian's eyes, so she explained lightly, Xiao Mohan's face did not change, he was calm and calm, and it seemed to be taken for granted.

This is outside, Qian Qianqian naturally can't have a seizure, since Xue Yi reported this matter to Xiao Mohan, she must not just report such a thing, so it is conceivable that her whereabouts in the past few days are under Xiao Mohan's control.

"Be careful." While Qian Qianqian was pondering, Xiao Mohan suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the side of the street, when a carriage full of dead corpses passed by, almost rubbing Qian Qianqian.

I really didn't expect that after only a few days, so many people died in Jincheng, the whole city was deserted, the dead leaves were piled on the ground, and it was a lot of depression, and it was soft under the feet, but it was not comfortable at all.

Qian Qianqian's body stiffened, and she quietly pushed Xiao Mohan away, she is now dressed in men's clothes, and pulling and pulling on the street with Xiao Mohan is not very suitable, and it is inevitable that people will gossip when they see it.

"It seems that this epidemic is really bad, there are so many corpses in just a few days, if this is not controlled, I am afraid that Jincheng will become an empty city."
