For the next few days, there was no heavy rain, but the light rain never stopped. The flood gradually subsided, but it still lingered in and out of the city, refusing to leave.

Long Yiheng has also been working hard, saving people and giving porridge and distributing cotton clothes and quilts, but with little effect. The people complained, and overnight, the city was full of white flags.

Some places below the mountain have been hit by flash floods, and the dam has long been dilapidated, and even a shadow is no longer visible.

The plague has not yet broken out, but no one dares to relax. Although it's winter and corpses don't decompose as quickly as in summer, that doesn't mean the plague won't break out. And even before the plague broke out, the dead were still shocking.

Shi Yuqi looked at the list in his hand, which counted all the people who died in the flood. There are old people, there are children, there are women, and there are young men. Xizhou has a total population of more than 100,000 people, and many small counties and small mountain villages were affected by the floods this time. Several counties along the river have suffered heavy casualties, and many villages have survived.

"More than 10,000 people...... ......'re all dead" Shi Yuqi's eyes were a little sloppy, they had already rushed over, why were they still dead?

"The princess came just in time, and only more than 6,000 people died in the flood, and the rest ...... All of them froze or died of cold, and in addition to that, more than a thousand people are missing...... Princess, you ...... I've done my best......" Qingzhu lowered his head, and the atmosphere was inexplicably a little heavy.

More than 10,000 people, the bodies were found. The so-called disappearances are mostly the bones gone.

“…… Indeed, I should be glad that only more than 10,000 people died. Except for those who can't be found, are all the people together? Shi Yuqi pulled away a smile with difficulty.

"Yes."

"I see."

On the third watch, it is the time when people are asleep.

The night is as cool as water, and the rain on the leaves has a faint tendency to freeze. The moon in the sky was half round, and it was terrifyingly cold at this time.

Shi Yuqi lived in the courtyard arranged by the governor of Xizhou, his hands were cold, and he also felt a little cold.

Outside, the leaves of the evergreen trees swayed and rustled.

Shi Yuqi's heart was cold, he couldn't help but squint, lightly lifted the thin quilt, put the pillow in the quilt, and hid himself in the corner of the room, lying dormant without saying a word.

Suddenly, a light yellow smoke slowly drifted in. Shi Yuqi just sniffed a little, and couldn't help but feel dizzy.

Shi Yuqi held on to the wall, bit the tip of his tongue, and slowed down for a while before his thoughts returned, and tears came out of his eyes.

Damn it! Where the hell does this potency*?!

Shi Yuqi hurriedly held his breath and concentrated, completely blending into the air, dissipating the last traces.

The slightly narrowed peach blossom eyes reflected a cold light, and Shi Yuqi was like a cheetah lurking in the dark, calm and dangerous.

Suddenly there was a rustling sound in the air, and he climbed in along the edge of the window.

Listening to that voice, it seems that there are quite a few of them. As soon as I heard it, I knew that such a large formation could not be a person, and the target was too big.

Shi Yuqi probably had some guess in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp for a while.

Through the moonlight, Shi Yuqi saw a python as thick as an adult man's arm spitting scarlet letters and crawling towards her bed. Behind the python, all poisonous snakes densely occupy an entire wall by the window.

The python opened its mouth, its fangs glowing with cold light and slammed into the quilt.

Looking at this scene, Shi Yuqi only felt a surge in his stomach. Suddenly, a chill welled up in his heart, and Shi Yu suddenly pulled out the dagger from his boot and swung it backwards with his senses and intuition! The sound of the clothes being torn came to his ears, and Shi Yuqi took advantage of this gap to turn over and hide at the table.

The vipers spat out the letter and stared at Shi Yuqi with momentum, as if staring at delicious food.

"Truly...... Little princess, it's very fast! A figure wrapped in a black cloak stepped back three feet and looked at Shi Yuqi through the mask for a long time.

On the arm of the black-robed man, there was a slender red mark, and fine beads of blood were still oozing.

"I don't know what your Excellency is doing when you visit late at night?" Shi Yuqi wiped the blood on the dagger and smiled smartly.

The incense has long since dissipated, but the residual fragrance ingredients in Shi Yuqi's body still make Shi Yuqi a little drowsy.

"Entrusted by someone." The black-robed man's voice was also smiling, looking very friendly, but the vipers slowly surrounded Shi Yuqi in the middle.

"Oh? So you think you're planning to be loyal? Shi Yuqi was still smiling, looking around casually, and a cold light oozed from the bottom of his eyes, gradually occupying the entire pupil.

"Isn't that inevitable?" The black-robed man seemed to be fearless, "I've given the little princess a way to die." I was bitten to death by my little girls, leaving only a tattered and graceful body, and the loyal little girl lying next door was the mastermind of the princess's death. What do you think? Not bad, right? ”

As if sensing something, the poisonous snakes spat out the letter at Shi Yuqi, and the fishy smell in the room made Shi Yuqi almost turn his back on it.

Without waiting for Yu Qi to speak, the black-robed man said again: "But I don't want my little girls to eat you now." The corners of the black-robed man's mouth hooked up a strange arc, "What if you are bitten into a blur of flesh and blood, and others can't recognize you?" Isn't it possible to leave only one face for you? No, then the little princess won't be pretty......"

The black-robed man said disgustingly, and Shi Yuqi was also disgusted when he heard it, and he couldn't help frowning, with a look of disgust.

"You said that if Gong Shizi saw the little princess, you would become like that......"

Shi Yuqi's eyes froze, and a trace of coldness couldn't help but leak out, and the dagger in his hand glowed with a cold light.

The black-robed man was stunned for a moment, and suddenly took a deep breath As if he smelled some intoxicating fragrance, he suddenly let out a few strange laughs, "Cold poison...... Jie Ji ...... Little princess, do you know what cold poison is? ”

As soon as these words came out, the cold around Shi Yuqi was even worse. The whole house seemed to be shrouded in layers of snow and ice.

Shi Yuqi's eyes reflected the moonlight, and her whole person became more and more cold. The light of his eyes turned, and there was still a little bit of starlight flickering under Shi Yuqi's eyes, so bright that people didn't dare to look at it directly.

After settling down, Shi Yuqi hooked the corners of his mouth lightly, "Cold poison, one of the three poisons, you use this kind of thing to ask this princess, do you look down on this princess?" Shi Yuqi raised his chin arrogantly, "Don't tell me anything about cold and hot poison, what do those Laoshzi things have to do with me?" ”

The black-robed man was stunned, obviously not expecting Shi Yuqi to be so ...... Talking nonsense with your eyes open!

"Little princess, do you really not know, or do you not know? The cold poison is extraordinary, if you really don't know, I'm afraid ...... I can't live now. The black-robed man sneered, "I have a way to this poison!" How about it, do you want to ......?"

"Less nonsense!" Shi Yuqi interrupted the black-robed man in a cold voice, and a sneer overflowed from the corner of his delicate lips, extremely cold, "It's just that I said a few more words to you, and I really take it seriously!" A mere barbarian from southern Xinjiang dared to openly run to the land of Dahua to make a fortune, did he really think that our family was dead?! ”

Hearing this, the black-robed man's exposed eyebrows furrowed tightly, obviously angered by Shi Yuqi's remarks. "Barbarians" are an insult that their nation cannot shake off.

The black-robed man grinned, clasped his hands together, and muttered in his mouth. The snakes raised their bodies as if commanded to do so, and made an attacking gesture.

"Do you really think this little bug can hurt me?" Shi Yuqi raised his hand and cut off a bamboo leaf, "Your master really underestimates me!" ”

"Whether you hurt or not, it's not up to you to decide!" The black-robed man manipulated dense poisonous snakes to surround Shi Yuqi from all directions, and the tricky venom sprayed from all angles, which really made Shi Yuqi a little tired for a while.

The black-robed man suddenly raised his head and let out a long, high-pitched strange scream, as if calling for something.

Shi Yuqi's eyes froze, and he cut off the four poisonous snakes with a knife and wanted to pull out.

The black-robed man didn't stop him, but just smiled maliciously, "Little princess, I didn't want to kill you in the first place, if you want to blame it, you have too many things!" ”

As soon as Shi Yuqi jumped to the door, a gust of wind rolled up outside the door, and the sky was full of chaotic leaves.

A fierce murderous aura approached the front door, and a black shadow broke through the air with dust and sand. Shi Yuqi's slender waist twisted into an incredible arc, and he could dodge it.

The dark shadow stopped beside the black-robed man, revealing his true form.

Carve! Shi Yuqi looked at the huge blackbird, and a chill ran in his heart.

"In order to kill me, you are really scheming......" Shi Yuqi suppressed the chill in his heart and sneered.

The black-robed man didn't object, "That's all because you're too difficult to deal with, little princess!" It doesn't take much effort, but we have endless troubles! I didn't want to do it to you so early, after all, our strength is not enough, but you shouldn't do so much! ”

"Ang-" The eagle let out a sharp cry, flapping its huge wings, and whistling towards Shi Yuqi.

Shi Yuqi retreated quickly, but the group of snakes came up like shadows.

For a while, Shi Yuqi couldn't advance or retreat.

Shi Yuqi simply gave up and continued to retreat, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and a cold air gushed out, and the beams, doors and windows instantly froze, and they were corroded away at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The obscuration had disappeared, and Shi Yuqi ran farther away. There was ice all along the way, and there were black traces of corrosion along the way.

On the top of the mountain in the distance, Shi Yuqi stood in the wind, and the cold poison hit her internal organs, making her want that knife to pierce her heart!

The intense pain made her sober, but that proud body never retreated!

Suddenly, a slender long whip appeared in Shi Yuqi's hand, his whole body was cold, and he knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary thing!

"This is the first time I've used a long whip, so I'll use you to practice!" The corners of Shi Yuqi's mouth hooked up a cruel smile, and the long whip with barbs was thrown out, rubbing a spark on the eagle wings.

"Little princess, you are too naïve, my eagle, but King Kong iron bones!" The black-robed man watched Shi Yuqi fight with the black eagle for a long time.

The surrounding ruins were covered with a bluish glow of liquid left behind by the melting of the ice, and many poisonous snakes had been corroded by the ice water until only their skeletons remained.

The smell was overflowing, Shi Yuqi looked at the black eagle hovering in the sky, slammed the whip up and wrapped it around the black eagle's feet, and pulled it down fiercely, tearing out a large piece of flesh and skin.

"Ang-" The black eagle's howl of pain resounded through the night sky,
