There is still half the way back to the capital.

Chi Jing dismounted, let the wild crane meditate on the side, and found a small stream, and took a leather pot to get some water to drink.

But this water...

Why is it so muddy?

She bowed a handful of water, the stream that should have been crystal clear and shining under the refraction of the sun in her palm was now floating with a lot of silt...

Yellow stream...

Not to mention drinking, you can't wash your face properly.

I had to look at the water helplessly and sigh, so let's drink it again at the next tea house.

"Brother Wild Crane, what kind of temperament do you have?" Chi Jing was really a little angry this time, because she wanted to save the girl in Niujia Village, she delayed her trip for half a day in vain, not to mention that she was hungry, and now she can't go to the village or the store, and she can't drink water if she wants to!

The wild crane is still temperamental at this time and refuses to move! She bought a horse to walk, isn't it okay to ask the ancestors to come back!

I saw it neigh, and the horse's hooves kicked back and forth restlessly, and its head slammed against the tree restlessly. Is this estrus?

She was about to yell at it in a fit of rage, when suddenly a thunderclap sounded in the sky for no apparent reason.

She was startled, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the thunder, and the annoyance in her heart strangely calmed down. Pressing down the dissatisfaction in her heart, she also sensed a trace of unease.

"Okay, I got it. Let's go. She stroked the crane's mane, and instead of getting angry at it, she began to reflect on herself.

Perhaps, her inexplicable grievances in the past two days, her early menopausal reaction, and sudden mania are not caused by the pressure of assassinating the emperor...

It's the day, it's going to change.

…

The scene she saw when she was about to travel to the capital confirmed this speculation.

Let's start with ants.

Ants, swarms of large numbers of ants, jumped over one after another from the middle of the road.

In her previous and present lives combined, she had never seen so many ants, densely packed, crawling all over the wide road...

Before seeing the ants, she was pretty sure she didn't have a phobia of density.

After seeing these ants, she was pretty sure she had a phobia of density.

The people who had been riding horses on the official road with her also stopped in horror at this time, watching this incredible scene together.

The ants seemed to be moving en masse, for a quarter of an hour, and no one dared to trample on them at all because they were so shocked.

Finally, the ant team passed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't know that a more terrifying scene appeared next.

Mouse! Thousands of rats!

They are more numerous than ants, crossing from the right side of the road to the left side of the road, and they are also jumping out one after another, with a hint of orderliness in the panic, and there is no gap for people to get their feet down... If they weren't rats, they would have a bit of a marching rank.

But they're rats, real rats! Swarms of rats under the blue sky and white sun!

Even though Chi Jing was standing with so many people, looking at the black black space in front of him, he still felt chills all over his body, and he was inexplicably frightened.

Before she saw the rats, she was sure she wasn't afraid of them.

After seeing the rats, she was sure she was afraid of them.

Because the people in front did not dare to advance, and those behind had to wait quietly. Unconsciously, there were more people on the official road, and there were several convoys behind them that did not know the situation ahead, and the people who were in a hurry were shouting and cursing at first, but when they squeezed to the front to take a look, they also couldn't say half a word.

Some of the women who had been waiting in the carriage for a long time got out of the carriage and walked around, and they also followed forward to take a lively look—

He shouted half an exclamation, and half drowned in his throat, and rolled his eyes and fainted.

The move lasted two quarters of an hour, until the last weak rat limped over with a cowering head.

Everyone put away the remaining panic in their hearts and continued on the road, after all, even if the sky fell, the road would still go down.

Everyone rushed forward to reach their destination as soon as possible and share with others the unforgettable scene they saw today.

Chi Jing originally thought that today's fright would end here.

…

It turned out that it didn't.

The next point is the capital. Night is about to fall, and she can only choose to stay in Guining Town, which is only two hours away from the capital.

She needs to rest and think about how to restrain today's new dense phobias in the future.

Tiredly stepping into the main street of Guining Town, looking up, there was an inn not far ahead, and the cloth signs and red lanterns in front of the inn exuded a seductive and soft light in the twilight.

She looked happy and strode forward.

But soon, she was overjoyed and stopped.

What's going on?

There was a musty smell in the air, and on top of that, there was a disgusting, strange smell that couldn't be explained...

She rubbed her eyes, the people on the street were walking in a hurry, and it was estimated that today was some specific festival in the town, so pedestrians were not rare.

On both sides of the street, there are many lanterns made of paper and bamboo strips, and the flowers are beautiful and green. Some of them are written "May you be safe and healthy", some are written "Toad Palace Zhegui", and some are written "Luanfeng and Ming", and other four-character words of good wishes.

It was a very lively night, happy and ordinary.

At least it seems to ordinary people, so warm that people yearn for the peace and tranquility of this town.

It's just that.

…

In Chi Jing's eyes, she only saw the city full of walking floating corpses.

The last time I met the death of the collective was the day Qin Yu and Tang Xi got married.

Chi Jing's lips, which were already chapped with thirst, moved, and he stood in the middle of the street alone, quietly digesting the fact that all this was not an illusion.

The uncle on the left had a huge stomach swollen with water, and his face was swollen, and a discerning person knew that he was drowning at a glance.

The lady on the right is not so swollen, but there is a big hole in her stomach, as if someone has taken out her internal organs, and if you look closely, you can see that it is a trace of being eaten by fish and shrimp.

The beautiful woman holding a lotus-shaped glass lantern was probably struggling fiercely before being washed into the water, and most of her outer shirt fell off, revealing the bandeau inside, and sewage continued to seep out of her mouth and nose.

And the three-year-old clever and cute boy who was held in his arms, his whole body was swollen and fat, and the foul-smelling sewage dripped from his body one by one, dripping onto his mother's body...

And his mother's death was not optimistic, the skin of her whole body was soaked blue-white, and the fingers of her hands were unknown for some reason.

It's getting dark.

Chi Jing stood in this lively night market, not knowing where to go.

It's a flood.

However, before a major natural disaster, animals with more or less spirituality will be given priority to sense the language of heaven and earth, and can read the dangerous signals sent by nature, so as to predict the impending disaster.

Ants and rats are only a small part of them, it turns out that they are not moving, they are fleeing en masse...
