"Have you ever been to that village?" asked Su Tang'an.

"No, I don't. Chenguang said, "This place is inseparable from manpower, and we will not let you leave here." ”

"It seems that if you want to know why these people are like this, you have to go to that village and find out. Su Juan said.

"But I can't get out right now. Chenguang thought for a moment and said.

"It's me again, do you still have to worry about these problems?" Su Ju'an raised his eyebrows slightly, "At night, let's go out, and only by understanding the cause of their poisoning can we really save them." ”

"Well, it's up to you. Chenguang said.

"But can your body hold on?" Su Juan asked worriedly, "Your head injury is quite serious. ”

"I don't care about that anymore. Chenguang said, "It's important to save these villagers, and seeing their current appearance makes me feel quite uncomfortable." ”

"Okay, let's act tonight, you take a rest, I'll arrange it." Su Juan said.

Then she went out and called Qin Yang and Ah Lan Ah Lu in, and told them about it.

When night fell, Su Cheng'an had a simple dinner with Chenguang, and Qin Yang went inside to report that everything was ready.

Su Tang'an gave Chenguang a look, Qin Yang led the way, there was a weakest defense place behind the quarantine area, the three of them left from here, Ah Lan and Ah Lu stayed to take care of the patient and other things.

The three of them took advantage of the moonlight to hurry to the village where the illness occurred.

After walking for a while, Su Juan said, "Don't you think it's strange that you were injured this time?"

"What do you mean?" asked Chenguang, puzzled.

"The quarantine area is quite well guarded, how did the thieves enter? The situation here is so grim that even the doctors dare not enter, and the thieves will come here to steal medicinal herbs, which is very suspicious when you think about it. Su Cheng'an said, "So I think there should be something else hidden in your injury." ”

"The biggest suspicion now is how the thieves got in. Qin Yang said, "I suspect that someone colluded with the guards outside and deliberately let the thief in." ”

"But why?" Dawn wondered, "Why did they do that?

"What the purpose is is not clear for the time being. Su Cheng'an said, "Ah Lan Ah Lu is already investigating this matter, and we will be able to know the details when we go back." Anyway, it's not easy. ”

The three of them walked briskly for two hours before they came to the village, which was small but almost unavoidable.

Because the people in the village have been moved, the village is now just an empty shell, black and ghostly.

"Let's go our separate ways, and if we find something, just call each other out. Su Cheng'an said, and then the three of them went into the village separately to check if there was anything suspicious.

The three of them searched in this village for a while, but this was just an ordinary village, there was nothing strange, and when they were about to go back, Su Tang'an suddenly noticed a small stream at the edge of the village, the water was very small, and there was a pond at the end to store the water left behind.

"This water must come down from the mountains, right?" said Su Tang'an, "There is no well in this village, so their water source must be here." I was just thinking about how to poison the people in the village at the same time, and no one was spared, could it be that there was a problem with this water, they had to use water for drinking and cooking, so everyone in the village had problems. ”

"Who would poison the water source?" Qin Yang wondered, "Will it be so vicious that all the people in a village will be removed?"

"If my judgment is correct, these villagers are indeed poisoned, then the poisoners are definitely not ordinary people. Chenguang said, "These suspected poisons of the epidemic, even I can't see the type, must have been developed by a master." ”

Chenguang said, walked to the creek, squatted down and sniffed it carefully, and suddenly turned around and said in surprise: "That's right, this is here! This is the source of poison! But maybe someone didn't put the poison into the reservoir, and there is a problem in this stream!"

"Since the problem is the stream that flows down from the mountain, we might as well follow the stream up and see if we can find any clues. Su Juan said.

Then Qin Yang made three torches, and the three of them walked towards the mountain in the direction of the small stream. They saw that the end of the stream was in a cave, and the three of them entered the cave immediately.

Not long after walking, the smell of decay came, very pungent, and the cave was very silent, and the sound of water dripping on the stone was clearly audible. Further inside, I saw several corpses lying on the ground, each of which seemed to be much larger than the normal proportions of a person, but none of the skin on the body was intact.

Chenguang walked in, frowned and examined it, and said: "The symptoms of these people are very similar to those in the village, maybe if the toxicity of the people in the village can't be controlled, they will end up like these people." You see the blood on these people merged with the stream that passed through the hole, and flowed down, and the villagers drank the infected water, and naturally they were poisoned. But what kind of poison is this?"

"Poison Immortal Mo asks for medicine?" Su Cheng'an remembered that when he was in the Yuguo Post House, Doctor Yu had guessed that everything was Mo Wenyao's work because of several horrible corpses, could everything today also be his doing?

"It's him!" Chenguang's face changed, and his eyes became angry, "He's doing evil again! I'm going to kill him!"

Judging from the situation here, his experiment failed again this time, and I am afraid that he is no longer here. Su Juan said, "I know you want to kill him, and so do I." But calm down and don't forget the purpose of our coming here today, and judging by the clues now, can you find a way to cure those villagers?"

Chenguang remembered the tragic situation of those villagers, but he still couldn't bear it, forced himself to calm down, and continued to investigate the few corpses on the ground, as well as some powder in the corner. He thought silently for a long time, got up and said, "I probably already have a clue in my heart, but I need time to sort it out, let's go back." ”

The three of them searched around the cave for a while, but found no other clues, and then rushed back to the quarantine area, where it was almost dawn.

The three of them returned to the quarantine area according to the same way, and entered the room where the morning light rested, only to see an unexpected figure sitting next to the bed, this person was none other than Gu Tingjun.

His face was anxious, his eyes were full of worry and irritability, he heard the sound of footsteps, hurriedly turned around, and saw that Su Tang'an and the three of them had come back safely, so he silently breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What the hell is going on?

"Why did you come here?" asked Su Tang'an, "Don't you know it's dangerous here?"

"You still know it's dangerous here!" Gu Tingjun said angrily, "Didn't you come here differently, and you didn't even say hello! Why are you so impulsive and don't even discuss with me?"

"Isn't that because Chenguang was injured and I had to come?" Su Ju'an said, "I didn't have time to talk to you because the matter was urgent. ”

"Then you can tell me, I can figure it out. Gu Tingjun said, "It's dangerous here, let's leave here first and leave with Chenguang." ”

"No need. Su Tang'an said, "It has been found out that the villagers here are not infected with the epidemic, but because they are poisoned, so they are not infectious." ”

Su Tang'an told Gu Tingjun what he had just found in the cave, "Don't worry about it now." ”

"It's that guy Mo Wenyao again!" Gu Tingjun thought of the guy wearing a black cloak when he was in Sun Mansion, his heart was cold, and he thought of the miserable situation of the villagers, "This kind of person is a scourge, and it should be eliminated as soon as possible!"

"But I couldn't find his whereabouts. "If he deliberately hides, how can we find his whereabouts?"

"We don't have to go to him, but we can let him come to us on his own initiative. Su Cheng'an thought for a while and said, "His experiments have failed repeatedly, and he must need the original prescription now, and we will use that to lure him out! ”

"That's right, Ah Lan Ah Lu. Su Tang paused and said, "What did you investigate, how did you investigate?"

"There is a reward. Ah Lan hugged his fists and said, "Young lady, please look!"

I saw a guard tied to a chair in the corner, his mouth covered and his eyes frightened.

"What's going on?" asked Su Tang'an.

"The slave found out that the so-called thief who stole medicine and injured Dr. Chenguang was pretended by this guy. We also found a silver ticket of 1,000 taels on his body, which I think should have been bought. Ah Lu said.

"Tell me who instructed you to disguise yourself as a thief and hurt Dr. Chenguang. Su Ju'an walked over and pulled out the strip of cloth from the man's mouth.

The man hesitated, a little reluctant to speak.

"Have you seen the people outside?" said Su Tang'an, "If you don't say anything, I can guarantee that you will end up worse than them." Decide for yourself, whether to carry it to the end, or say it now, so as not to suffer. ”

"I say!" said the man hurriedly, "it was the people of the Huainan Royal Mansion who gave me a thousand taels of silver to attack Dr. Chenguang, but don't kill him." ”

"Huainan Palace?" Su Juan's brows furrowed, "To be specific, who is in the Huainan Palace!"

"It's Gu Tingyao, the eldest prince of Huainan Palace. ”

"Why did he do that?" asked Su Tang'an.
