Chapter 154: The Tower

A small crack opened in the gates.

The person who shouted just now was pushed out, and the people waiting by the city gate were powerless to pick up the door, only to be ruthlessly cut by the spear sticking out of the crack in the door. There were several corpses lying on the ground, and the people seemed to have gone numb, and they looked at the corpses on the ground in the dark. Meng Yining glanced at it, and it seemed that he had just died. She looked up at the castle tower, and finally knew what she was looking at on the mountain. It turned out that those who were sick and unwilling to voluntarily go out of the city would be thrown down by the officers and soldiers defending the city and fell to death.

She looked up, and the officers and soldiers above also waited expressionlessly.

In the face of mass deaths, people have lost their humanity and have begun to kill each other. And this method of assassinating history is indeed a good way, and the follow-up people all obediently went out of the city, and no one made noise on the city tower.

There was a little girl at Meng Yining's feet crying: "Mother...... When will I be able to go home? She snorted, and the lady next to her took her in her arms weakly, and it was evident that the woman had no strength to hug her dear child again.

Jing Chi pulled someone over and asked, "What's going on here?" ”

Although Jing Chi is dressed plainly, his momentum is difficult to hide his luxurious temperament. The man seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and shouted, "My lord...... Adults help us! We don't want to die! The middle-aged man pulling Jingchi knelt on the ground crying bitterly. There was a sudden uproar around, and looking at the out-of-place Jingchi, he suddenly knelt on the ground.

"Your Excellency...... Help us! ”

"Your Excellency!"

"We want to go home!"

Kneeling in a circle, Jingchi is like standing in the middle of a lotus flower. Chang Jin blows, and the spring lake behind him is far and wide. People's eyes were full of longing, staring, staring at the clean man in front of them who was like a god. Some people lying on the ground also got up in a panic, knelt on the ground and kowtowed. Men and women, young and old, look like dead branches in the wind and snow. Their eyes were cloudy because of the disease, and they didn't dare to touch the delicate man in front of them. Looking at it from afar, he lowered his head as if waiting for an order.

Meng Yining was stunned.

Jing Chi's heart moved.

"What the hell is going on?"

"We used to live in the city, but we were kicked out by the officers and soldiers because of illness. Originally, they said that if you go out of the city to heal the disease, you can go home. But there was nothing outside the city, they were locked up outside the city, and they couldn't go back to their homes inside. Look at the child......" he pointed to a little girl whimpering, with a flushed face and a swollen nose, "and her mother was infected with the plague, and she was thrown out with it...... We are helpless here, we don't even have anything to eat! He said angrily, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Meng Yining sighed and looked at the baby.

The infant was lying on his back, and at the end of his eyes was a lake.

She knew what he was thinking, and isolating the sick person might be the best thing to do. But these are the people of Great Xia, and they can't be allowed to destroy themselves just because they are infected with a small epidemic. The horse beside her was whimpering lowly, as if sensing the sadness of the people.

"The gates are open again, and open again......" suddenly one shouted.

The crowd rushed up to get through the crack in the door where the patient had been released, only to be blocked by the cold weapon. An officer and soldier were pushed out, his lips were white and trembling, and it turned out that he was also unfortunate to be ill. Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "It's him, it's him who threw Zhang Er down on the city tower!" Retribution is coming, hahahaha! Kill for your life! As he spoke, a group of people surrounded the poor officers and soldiers, and the anger of the people was vented on this young officer and soldier.

He opened his frightened eyes and fell to his knees with a thud.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me! I was also forced. Snot and tears flowed down his face, and blood came out of his forehead. But the group did not intend to let him go, and punched him in the back. People gritted their teeth and yelled at him.

Meng Yining roared when he saw this scene: "Enough! ”

She pulled the crowd away, "It's not what he wanted, what did he do when he was angry!" The little girl also blushed and said solemnly, "Now you should think about how to cure the disease!" How to enter the city, you will fight in the nest every day. ”

"I can't get in, I can't get in." There was a man next to him drinking wine and lamenting, "It's better to drink and die outside this city tower in a drunken dream." We did not die of sickness, but of this city! I can't go back to my home, so I'll kill us all...... Are we not the people of this Great Xia? Aren't they the people of this Great Xia? Why leave us alone! The man spoke with a peach accent, unkempt, and his clothes were tattered and stained with wine.

It turned out that the person who escaped from Xiantao originally wanted to hide from the limelight in other cities for a while, but now the city gate is closed, and he can't go back to his home, and the door in front of him is unwilling to be open for them. The man from Xiantao lamented and shook his head. Jing Chi stood in the crowd and said: "Folks, we came out of Xiantao just now, the epidemic in Xiantao has been controlled, if you are from Xiantao, you can go home and have a look." He thought about dispersing the crowd that had gathered here.

"Go see? It's already an empty city! Don't lie to me! The drinker shouted, "You rulers deceive with a tongue!" At the beginning, the history of Xiantao Thorn could not be said for three days, and the problem of the epidemic must be solved, and there is no need to tell the king. As a result, I went first...... Hahaha......" The man laughed maniacally.

Hearing the voice, the infant suddenly shook his whole body, and he looked back carefully at the bearded man leaning against the city wall, and was suddenly stunned and walked over. He said respectfully, "Sir, the epidemic is indeed under control. Listening to the man's familiar voice, he suddenly thought that this man was originally a doorman in the Assassin's Mansion, and he ran away because he had different views from the Assassin's Mansion, and he was penniless, so he set up a fortune-telling stall at the gate of Xiantaocheng to make ends meet.

The man looked up, brushed his messy hair, and snorted, "It's you." ”

"Exactly."

The man stood up lazily and looked at the well-groomed baby, "I know you. What did you just say that the epidemic has been brought under control? He didn't believe it, but he had seen infants, and he never lied to others.

"Yes, the corpse has been burned in the suburbs, and the new assassin is back to hunting rats and killing rats."

Someone's eyes lit up, "So, I can go home?" ”

"Back to Xiantao?"

"Can you go back to Xiantao?"

No one wanted to abandon their homeland, and those who were forced to leave their homeland began to riot. They looked at each other and asked Jingchi worriedly, "My lord, can we go home?" ”

"That's it."
