Chapter 104: Nanyang City
Now that the situation on the frontier is still relatively stable, Meng Qi left his lieutenant in the city and went to Nanyang with a bunch of elite men.
Lan Zhenzhen was imprisoned in the prisoner car, and all the weapons on his body were searched by Chu Jinshi, his hands were tied, and the warlock who wanted to lure the snake couldn't do it, so he could only bite the humiliation into his stomach.
Because of the urgency of time, Chu Jinshi made a very difficult choice.
"General Meng, the situation in Nanyang is in crisis now, I'll hurry over first, and we'll meet in Nanyang."
Of course, Meng Qi knew that the situation was very crisis, and he didn't want to see the country he was guarding being played by a few Loulan remnants.
"Good! His Royal Highness King Xun can rest assured that the ministers and ironclad soldiers will arrive quickly! "He also has a team of men and horses, so naturally he can't ignore it.
Chu Jinshi nodded, glanced at the prisoner cart not far behind him, Lan Zhenzhen shrank into a small ball inside, even if it was so far away, Chu Jinshi could feel that Lan Zhenzhen's eyes were full of hatred when he looked at him.
"General Meng, the demon girl will be handed over to you first, don't let anyone get close to her or talk to her, and don't hurt her life, it's still very useful for her to keep it."
Meng Qi hugged his fists and said: "His Royal Highness King Xun can rest assured, the minister will keep it in mind, and he will definitely bring you safely." ”
With the guarantee of General Meng Qi, Chu Jinshi left with confidence, raised the dust all the way and rode away.
The border is not close to Nanyang.
Like Chu Jinshi, he rode his horse wildly, ran and killed three horses along the way, did not stop for three days and three nights, and finally saw the big city gate of Nanyang in the early morning of the fourth day.
The moment he saw the city gate, under the rising sun, Nanyang City was so peaceful, which made Chu Jinshi breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it's okay, Ji Junyao is fine.
The sudden relaxation of consciousness made Chu Jinshi's eyes darken, and the tireless rush for several days made Chu Jinshi exhaust all his experience, Junyi's face was full of exhaustion, and the person was also tanned, and the whole person was depressed a lot, as if he had grown several years old all of a sudden.
The horse under the crotch suddenly stumbled, and another horse ran to its death...
Even with Chu Jinshi, he also flipped down, fell the ground and rolled several times, this fall, Chu Jinshi did not get up, and the person had already fainted.
Shortly after he fainted, a person stood next to Chu Jinshi.
The person who came was Ji Rufei.
He was as flustered as Chu Jinshi, but he rushed back all the way by relying on his excellent light skills, but he didn't expect that he was one step later than Chu Jinshi.
When he saw Chu Jinshi lying on the ground, Ji Rufei stood beside him, looking at Chu Jinshi's embarrassed appearance, he couldn't figure it out, why was Chu Jinshi so flustered?
He just stopped for a while, and then rushed to the city, not planning to lend a helping hand at all.
At this time, the gates of Nanyang City were still tightly closed.
Normally, this time should have been opened, what's going on? Are those Loulan remnants moving so fast?
Ji Rufei's heart that had just been put down hung again, and the soldiers at the city gate saw that there were people below, but the sky was not completely bright, and they couldn't see who it was, and shouted: "Who is the person below, the idlers of Nanyang City are not allowed to enter, leave quickly!" ”
There must be something going on in the city, otherwise why would the whole city be under martial law.
Ji Rufei didn't have the heart to explain who he was, so he flew directly onto the city wall, and walked to the soldier who spoke just now with a gloomy face: "Say, what happened to Nanyang recently?!" ”
At such a close distance, the soldier finally saw clearly who the person in front of him was, he didn't know if he didn't look at it, he was startled when he saw it, it wasn't the cold-faced Hades King Ji Rufei, who was it!
Immediately frightened and almost peed his pants, the surrounding soldiers knelt on the ground together, and did not dare to raise their heads and said: "Lord spare your life!" It's so small that I don't know it's the prince! Otherwise, I would be a dog and dare not be disrespectful to the prince! ”
Ji Rufei roared impatiently: "I'll ask you!" Why martial law in the whole city! What happened! ”
The soldier replied: "Back to the prince, some unknown people suddenly appeared around Nanyangcheng a few days ago, no!" It should be said that it is a ghost! That day, he ran in and bit two people, but after being cured, the bitten person also became like that, and now the bitten person is isolated, and the doctor in the city said that it was a plague and was trying to find a way. ”
Sure enough, it's already shot!
Ji Rufei asked again: "Is it someone from outside Nanyang?" ”
"Yes, Lord Wang, General Cheng took his men and horses to explore outside, and said that the villages around Nanyang seem to have become like that, and this is why the whole city is under martial law."
"What a bullshit plague!" Ji Rufei burst into foul language for the first time in his life, and ordered: "Guard the city gate, if King Xun comes, open the city gate directly and let him in." ”
"Yes."
Ji Rufei returned to the mansion and didn't have time to rest at all, so he gathered all his soldiers.
Knowing that Ji Rufei was back, the people who got the order did not dare to delay for a moment, and in less than half a cup of tea, everyone gathered.
"Ren Chen, how many people in the city are being bitten now?"
Ren Chen is Ji Rufei's most powerful assistant.
"Returning to the prince, there are now more than 100 people in the city who have been quarantined."
Ji Rufei said: "Kill them all." ”
"This..."Ren Chen was very surprised by Ji Rufei's decision, although Ji Rufei is usually a little mean to lead people, and people are also cold, but he has never been stingy with the people, Ren Chen hesitated: "Lord Wang, this... No, if these people are killed, it will cause dissatisfaction among the people in the city, not to mention that we are now in the limelight, but we must not lose the hearts of the people. ”
Ji Rufei knows this much better than Ren Chen.
Ji Rufei frowned: "What I can tell you is that this is definitely not a plague, if this situation cannot be controlled at the moment, the people of the whole city will become like that in the future!" ”
He had never explained anything to the soldiers, but this time, Ji Rufei explained, Ren Chen unconditionally chose to believe in Ji Rufei's decision, and said: "My subordinates understand!" ”
Ji Rufei said again: "In addition, as long as you see a similar situation outside the city, kill them all." ”
"Yes!"
After arranging everything, Ji Rufei went back to the room to clean up the dust all over his body, changed into a new set of clothes, and went directly to visit Ji Junyao before he had time to rest.
Ji Junyao was well protected, and her complexion was much better, when Ji Rufei arrived, Ji Junyao saw it at a glance, and her worries for many days suddenly came to naught, and she rushed towards Ji Rufei happily, "Brother! You're back! ”
Ji Rufei took Ji Junyao into his arms accurately, picked it up and spun around twice, and scratched Ji Junyao's small and cute nose, "I haven't seen you for a few days, have you gained weight again?" ”
"How can you be fat?" Ji Junyao said unhappily, looked down at her figure, and didn't see where she was fat.
As soon as he looked up, he saw his brother looking at him with bent eyebrows, knowing that he had been deceived again, Ji Junyao stomped his feet angrily: "Brother! Did you know that girls can't be said to be fat! ”
Ji Rufei smiled dotingly: "It's fat, and it's also my brother's sister who is hurt." ”
"Hey, hey." Ji Junyao cracked a mouthful of little white teeth and smiled, and suddenly stepped forward to examine Ji Rufei carefully: "Brother, you look tired, the dark circles under your eyes are so heavy, did you just come back to see me." ”
Ji Junyao knows her brother's love for her son, so she can often see through Ji Rufei's mind at a glance.
Ji Rufei nodded helplessly: "Yes, because I'm worried about you, I'll come and see you." ”
"What do I have to worry about! Brother, you don't know, a few days ago, General Ren said that it was not safe outside, and he wouldn't even let me out of the gate! What if something happens! When you come back, you still have to chop up General Ren? As she spoke, Ji Junyao took Ji Rufei's arm and took it off into her room, and pressed her brother heavily on the bed, "Hurry up and lie down!" ”
Under Ji Junyao's order, Ji Rufei lay on the bed obediently, and said, "I'm not sleepy." ”
"Look at the dark circles under your eyes are so heavy!"
said that he was not sleepy, but Ji Rufei closed his eyes, and after a while, he entered the dark and sweet dream.
Ji Junyao carefully covered the quilt and stood aside quietly, but she felt that such a scene seemed familiar.
When Chu Jinshi woke up, he couldn't tell whether it was the Year of the Monkey and Ma Yue, rubbed his swollen head and looked around, remembering that he was obviously outside before he passed out, but now he was in a room.
"You're finally awake?"
A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and Chu Jinshi followed the voice and looked over, "Tang Tang?!" ”
It turned out to be Tang Tang! How could she be here.
Tang Tang held a bowl of soup medicine in his hand and handed it over: "If you don't wake up, I will doubt my medical skills." ”
When Chu Jinshi saw the bowl of black and thick medicinal juice, he couldn't help but want to vomit for a while, "You spare me, I really can't drink it." ”
"Okay, I saw that you haven't woken up, so I added some medicine, and since you're awake, forget it."
Chu Jinshi watched Tang Tang put the decoction in his hand aside, and then breathed a sigh of relief, you know, Tang Tang's medicine will be bitter to death: "Why are you here?" ”
"It was Cang who asked me to come over, but I really expected him to be right, it was Nanyang who had an accident first, and I picked you up halfway."
"I'm really not half as smart as my big brother." Chu Jinshi threw himself back on the bed, looking at the tattered roof and feeling sorry for himself.
Tang Tang smiled: "You are just a fan of the authorities." ”
"That's what I said..."Chu Jinshi said to himself, and sat up from the bed again with difficulty: "Let's hurry into the city." ”
"There's no hurry." Tang Tang looked at the weather outside, said two words slowly, and said: "It's night, it's not safe to go out now." ”
Tang Tang extinguished all the lights in the house, and barely illuminated the room with only a night pearl.
Chu Jinshi's heart chuckled, and he asked cautiously, "Is something happening in Nanyang?" ”
"Hmm." Tang Tang nodded, closed the doors and windows, only left a gap in the window, Tang Tang stood by the window and looked out: "I came a few days earlier than you, I wanted to enter the city gate but was stopped, I was trapped outside the city all night before I knew, at night, there will be something that is not human or ghostly to attack, there have been several people, I stayed outside, and I have been observing now." ”
"Corpses?!" Chu Jinshi exclaimed: "Is it a corpse who bites when he sees someone, is tireless, and doesn't know the pain!" ”
