Chapter 43: The Plague

Mu Caiwei pinched her palms, only feeling that she couldn't breathe.

Seeing that the thin man in black called Qi Er's two calves went down, Cai Wei's body couldn't help but tremble, feeling a little dizzy.

The courtyard is even quieter than a needle drop.

"Puff" "Puff".

Just when almost everyone stretched their necks to look at the mouth of the well, two people in the neighborhood, who were not far away, suddenly fell down without the slightest warning.

"Oh, auntie, what's wrong with you?" A woman's screaming voice rang out.

"Sister-in-law, take a look, why did Uncle Zhang fall too?"

For a moment, the neighbors gathered around and shouted at each other.

"Ahh Someone shouted.

The man in black who led the way unconsciously looked over there, and some people around him got off their horses to investigate.

"Ahhh It's the same as the Iron Bull's symptoms, huh? I don't know if it was the aunt or the uncle who vomited blood, which caused the people around to shout.

"It can't be, it can't be a plague, right?" Someone who is obviously in a good mind immediately thinks of this.

"Huh? Oh my God, the plague ......"

This voice exploded, like a thunderbolt in the flat ground, sparks flew over people's heads.

The onlookers retreated like the ebbed tide of the sea, so frightened that they didn't even look at the excitement of Caiwei's house, and those who closed their doors were faster than rabbits.

Aunt Wang and Uncle Zhang, who fell to the ground, are an old couple with no children and no daughters, and they will be foaming at the mouth and lying on the ground, and they don't know what to do.

When the young man in black who went to investigate saw this posture, he didn't ask anything, ran back, knelt in front of the leader in black, and reported, "Duke, it's the plague." ”

It wasn't loud, but it was too quiet in the courtyard for everyone to hear it.

Mu Caiwei's heart jumped: This person called the leader "Dugong", then this official is weird.

"What did you say?" The leading man in black obviously couldn't believe his eyes, but whether it was true or not, the two old men and old ladies who fell to the ground and were convulsing were indeed lying there, and they had to pay attention.

He turned around and looked at the person in the middle who was tightly wrapped in a black cloak, "Master, plague, look at ......"

"Withdraw!"

The man spat out a word that was very clear.

"Retreat!" The leader of the man in black waved his hand, and the man in black in the courtyard ran out of the yard with great speed, jumped on the horse, and galloped away.

Li Zheng Baixing was so frightened that his legs and stomachs were spinning, and when he saw that his daughter was still standing next to Cai Wei, he was so anxious that he came over and grabbed her, "Little ancestor, what else are you looking at, run away." ”

For a while, all the people in the courtyard were clean.

"Hey, and me." Qi Er, who was halfway down, shouted at the top of his voice when he saw that his companions were gone.

Cai Wei was shocked by this wave before she could calm down, and stared at the man in black who was climbing the pole and climbing up.

"Hey, you're going to come and pull me up, silly girl!" That Qi Er saw that she was stunned and didn't move, looking at her stupidly, and shouted angrily.

"Oh......" Cai Wei came back to her senses, and walked over with a deep and shallow foot, pulling him up.

Na Qi Er glanced at Cai Wei, who was dizzy, and suddenly bared his teeth and smiled, "Frightened, right?" Silly girl. ”

After saying that, he pedaled out, jumped on his horse and ran.

"Phew, you're a stupid girl, your whole family is a stupid girl!" Cai Wei, who came to her senses later, spat at the figure that was far away, stood there with her waist crossed and stomped her feet.

After being scared for a long time, her feet were sore.

Thankfully, the plague came at just in time.

When others regarded the plague as a flood beast, she couldn't wait to cheer and rejoice!

I was happy there for a long time, and suddenly remembered that there was a big living person at the bottom of the well.

After most of the day's work, I don't know if I'm still panting?

Cai Wei hurriedly hoisted the wooden barrel down, and shouted to the dark well that could not be seen at the end, "Hey, come up quickly." ”

There was no movement for the second half of the day.

Cai Wei's heart that had finally sunk was rushing up again, Mom, it won't suffocate to death, right?

Hey, if she dies in her well, it's really troublesome.

"Hey, are you still panting? Come on, huh? If you don't come up again, I'll be gone. ”

She tried her best to keep her composure, but the changed tone of voice had betrayed her mood at the moment.

After waiting for a while, there was still no one.

Cai Wei almost cried, "Hey, you're not really going to die in it, are you?" ”

What can I do?

If this person really dies in the well, in the middle of the night, she can't go down and pull it up?

Iron Bull is so sick again, otherwise he can still find him to think of ideas.

Cai Wei, who was rubbing his hands and stomping his feet, was as anxious as ants on a hot pot, when he heard a whirring sound at the bottom of the well, and the rope holding the wooden barrel trembled.

"Quick, quick, pull me up!" The man's voice, the low gnats, was almost inaudible.

But such a voice is heard in Cai Wei's ears at this time, just like the sound of natural Sanskrit.

She was overjoyed, and she didn't know how to express it for a while, so she wiped her face and pulled the rope in a hurry.

Lu Ying sat in the wooden barrel trembling and was pulled up by Cai Wei, and as soon as she landed, her tall body shook.

"You, you, why didn't you move?" Cai Wei asked, half aggrieved and half afraid.

"Scare you to play!" Lu Ying's miserable face, in the moonlight, was like scraped bones, exuding a faint light, but her expression was graceful.

"You, you, this can be played?" Mu Caiwei was so angry that she raised her fist and slapped it at Lu Ying.

Lu Ying's tall body shook and fell towards the wellhead, so frightened that Mu Caiwei grabbed it, and a layer of white sweat appeared on her back.

"You, if you don't do it, you will die!" She didn't care about his words, pulled him by one arm and put it on her shoulder, supported his body, and the two of them stumbled into the side room.

Lu Ying was soaked, and there were no clothes for him to change at this time, but Cai Wei was afraid that he would catch a cold and fever, so she had to grit her teeth and take off his tattered clothes, leaving only a pair of obscene pants.

He was lying in front of the stove, with no strength at all, and the wound on his chest was oozing blood, but he still smiled casually, "Your eyes are red and you're crying?" ”

Cai Wei snorted noncommittally and lowered her head to make a fire.

With the firelight, Lu Ying felt that her body was not so cold. When he saw Cai Wei ignoring him, he reached out and poked her, "Hey, what about you?" ”

Cai Wei didn't look back, only said "um".

"What are you crying about? Crying for me? Although the wound was very painful and she hid in the well and froze for most of the hour, Lu Ying was in a good mood at this time.

When he thought that this ugly girl would cry too, and cry for him, for some reason, he was just happy!

"Who cried for you? Am I scared of those people? Cai Wei wiped her sweaty and tear-stained face and grinded her teeth fiercely.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the action was made, he called out "ouch".

"What's wrong?" Lu Ying was behind her and asked anxiously, he obviously saw her left arm move and hesitated.

"No, nothing." Cai Wei didn't want him to know, and she couldn't tell why.

"Show me." Lu Ying knew too well what the reaction to the injury was, so he struggled to prop himself up, grabbed Cai Wei's left arm, and rolled up her sleeve.

"Hey, you, why don't you have any education at all, and the arms of the yellow flower girl can be seen if you want to?" Cai Wei was not angry, but she couldn't stop him.

On the white and tender arm like a lotus root, there is a bright red mark.
