Chapter 40: The Scenery of the South of the Yangtze River

On October 1, the second day of the fourth month of the descent, the day of black eating black officially ended.

For a month, I took my brothers to rob and set fire at night, and I slept and hurried during the day, I was tired and didn't have any time to make records, Lin Luoluo was so bored that she began to take the initiative to read and endorse books, which was really embarrassing for her.

Originally, Qingcheng came to Jianyecheng to take a small road for 20 days, but in the end it was delayed for 10 days, and it took a whole month to reach Jiangnan.

Without him, the money went to work.

In addition to making money, we also saved many women and children, and also burned 18 cottages to eliminate harm for the people.

Along the way, we swept through eighteen small cottages. Count, I killed six village owners, cut down eight of them, and the remaining four were those who were afraid of death and would admit defeat if they couldn't fight.

There were also a few large cottages with hundreds of people along the way, and I didn't dare to do it, mainly because I was afraid that my brother would be killed or injured too much.

As for them, they didn't dare to take the initiative to provoke us, thinking that the news had already come out along the way.

Feng Xiyue of the Feng family in Qingcheng led a team of men and horses, black and black, killing people and setting fires, and destroying the foundation of thieves.

I believe that Feng Yangyue's name is definitely well-known on the road! When I go back, I must let him treat me to a big dinner.

In the end, eighteen cottages were snatched down, which was a lot of money, and everyone was smiling.

Feng Xiaoer and I each got more than 50,000 taels in the end, and the brothers who went to war also had 5 or 6,000 taels per person, and those who didn't fight also had a few hundred taels of silver.

Isn't that fragrant?

It's a pity, a one-time deal.

However, I haven't seen the similar-looking treasure map of [Qingniuzhai] in the future, which makes me more and more suspicious that this thing is a lie.

There is an unusually consistent news that eighteen small cottages have been charged protection fees, and I heard that the big cottages are the same, and it is said that all the money flows into Jiangnan!

There is also news that many strong men have also been sent to Jiangnan!

There are many mysteries ahead for me to solve.

Today, we have finally entered the Jiangnan Territory, and there are no more bandits ahead.

From now on, I revert to my identity.

I am a monk of the heart, Amitabha~

As soon as the convoy entered Jiangnan, Lin Luoluo was confined to the carriage by me, not allowed to come out, and the windows were not allowed to open, even if he took medicine, he couldn't do it.

We stinky men, strong and strong, are not afraid of things, but there is only a small child in the whole convoy, and we must not be infected by the plague.

You can already start to see homeless people on both sides of the official road... They coughed, their faces were yellow, they were tired, they were skinny...

I don't know where they're going, and maybe they don't know if it's heaven or hell ahead, where will they be able to save their lives? You may die just as much as you do, but what if you live? This is the only hope and motivation in their eyes.

They are not interested in the cargo of the convoy, food can no longer save them, weapons make them afraid, death makes them afraid.

And the herbs... We only have more than 2,000 copies in our convoy, and we can't save them!

From time to time, you can see someone suddenly fall on the road, followed by crying and swearing.

Many crows stood on the treetops of the dead branches and shouted, and a large flock of vultures hovered in the sky, patiently waiting for the fall of their prey.

The team they fled was longer than our convoy, many, much longer, and the entire official road was, maybe not only the official road, maybe the whole Jiangnan, maybe ...... They're just hard. As far as the eye can see, the lives are devastated, and the corpses are everywhere.

Since yesterday, before entering Jiangnan, Feng Xiaoer has already put the powder in the medicine powder in Hu Tu Pharmacist's prescription into water according to a certain dose, and let everyone drink it, twice a day, no matter what happens to the plague in Jiangnan, his own body should be protected first.

Lin Luoluo's question also deepened: "Master, tell me about this world..."

"Don't say it!" I shook my head.

The way of this world is indescribable, unclear, and unreasonable.

……

The convoy was mighty, and finally came to Jianye City in Jiangnan before dark.

The people of the Feng Family Chamber of Commerce were already waiting, and the workers of the Chamber of Commerce began to unload the goods nervously, and all of them were transported back to the Chamber of Commerce's granary.

The task of the brothers in the group was also successfully completed, and the brothers of the Feng family heard Feng Xiaoer's arrangement to leave dozens of people to help, and the rest had to go back to Qingcheng, after all, Qingcheng also had a big business and needed a lot of manpower.

"Brothers, when are you going back?" I asked them.

"We plan to leave for Qingcheng tomorrow, it's too late tonight, let's have a good night in the city first. Master, what are your plans? "Someone answered me.

"I'm not going back to Qingcheng, it's best for you to take the official road when you go back, don't take the trail, so as not to be found and retaliated." I remembered something, and I thought it would be better to remind everyone.

"Listen to the master, the master is not here, and we don't dare."

"Yes, master, there will be such good things in the future, remember to bring your brothers." Everyone, you say a word to me.

"Well said, well said."

As soon as Feng Xiaoer came to Jianye City, he directly became the leader of the Feng family in Jiangnan, and the order was forbidden. A group of people surrounded him, and they were also very busy.

"Feng Xiaoer, I'll take Luoluo to walk around the city, and I'll come back later, you're busy." Taking advantage of the gap, I said hello to him.

"Master, relax. Xiao Er will arrange it properly. "Feng Xiaoer is busy with me.

I led Lin Luoluo to walk on the streets of Jiangnan.

In the autumn of October, there is no harvest joy as mentioned in the book, there is no prosperity and liveliness that the world often says, the withered yellow leaves on the bluestone streets are swaying with the wind, and there is no root.

As far as the eye can see, there are patients leaning under trees and leaning against walls, coughing, moaning, emaciated, sick, mindless, hopeless, and miserable...

"Quick, throw it in the car, and transport it out of the city to burn it together." Everywhere, soldiers in the city carried cold corpses in horse-drawn carts, and no family members would come to claim those infected with the plague, and in the end they were all carried out of the city to be burned.

[People are like grass and mustard and no one is in the background,]

[Light as a feather and finally turning to ash.] 】

[The cycle of life and death turns empty,]

[Buddha Yin high hall crosses all beings. 】

The epidemic in Jiangnan is far more serious than we imagined, and the season has not yet entered winter, and if it does, the casualties will only be more severe.

Lin Luoluo and I stopped at the door of a lively pharmacy.

The pharmacy business has to queue up, and it should be in troubled times.

"Divine Doctor Zhu, help me, please save me."

"You're out of luck, go home and die."

"Doctor Zhu, please, I have money, give it to you, just please save me."

"Go back, there's nothing I can do, next."

"Please... Please... Help me..."

"Don't make trouble, violators will be beheaded." The soldier stepped forward and pointed his halberd at the healer.

Walking on the streets of Gangnam, I always felt a little strange, and I couldn't tell where it was. Only now did I realize that all the shops that were still in business were guarded by soldiers, with a cold expression. This is definitely not a normal thing.

【Zhujia Pharmacy】

Save the life and help the wounded, and rejuvenate the hand.

Jiangnan Zhu family, presumably this is also their industry.

Gold-lettered signboards, gold-lettered couplets, wonderful hands are naturally wonderful hands, young and beautiful goddess doctors, who can not rejuvenate after watching it?

Seeing me and Lin Luoluo standing at the door, the goddess doctor took the initiative to come over and ask.

"Master, are you sick?"

"Uh... Passing by, we just passed by! ”

"Do you want to see it? What if you get sick? ”

"Amitabha Buddha ~ If I will be uncomfortable, definitely, definitely."

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
