Chapter 28: Smallpox Infection

Zhang Fuquan turned around and returned to Gu Changgong's side, and said with some distress: "Second Highness, this girl is really a tendon, she doesn't listen to persuasion!" ”

Gu Changgong raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "It's okay!" I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, if she agrees so easily, I still think it's boring! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a man in black suddenly appeared, knelt on one knee, and reported to Gu Changgong: "Second Highness, the Holy Lord came to Xunzhou not long ago, and he is sending someone to find your whereabouts. ”

"Got it, I'll go back!" Hearing this, Gu Changgong bowed slightly, and after finally confirming the direction in which Xu Jingluo was traveling, he turned around and hurriedly left.

"Girl, do you know the boy you just talked to?"

Cui Ying had just returned with a change of hakama and happened to see Gu Changgong.

Although he didn't know anything about his life, he didn't seem to have any malicious intentions, maybe he came to ask the girl for directions, so she didn't pay much attention to it.

"If you don't know, you're just a self-righteous idiot." Xu Jingluo pursed his lips, looked at the rows of torches in front of him, and urged: "Let's hurry up and follow them, if we are alone, I'm afraid it won't be safe!" ”

Cui Ying even claimed that it was, and couldn't help but turn her neck and look behind her, only to find that the idiot in the girl's mouth and his entourage had left this place for a long time.

Everyone hurried for a while, the sky was just bright, but they still didn't come to the destination smoothly, Feng Yongsheng looked into the distance with a sad brow, his face looked very solemn.

He sighed and said faintly: "I guess I didn't arrive so soon, hey, don't let those soldiers in Beiliang be caught!"

"I don't think there's a need to worry, we turn a small road, there are few people, it's not so conspicuous!"

Qian Yulan pursed her lips, shook her head again and again, and said: "The fleeing people are basically on the main road, and they are not fools, how can they take a special path to arrest us!" ”

"I hope so!" Feng Yongsheng looked up at the night sky for a while, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and then ordered everyone to continue their journey and try to arrive before dawn.

......

When everyone was about to reach the foot of the mountain, they suddenly saw a group of Beiliang people wearing armor, who were beating horses and coming this way!

In an instant, everyone panicked, anxious like ants on the pot table.

"This is too bad, the Beiliang barbarians have really discovered our traces, what should we do?"

Feng Yongsheng ordered: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and escape, just flee to the mountains and hide! ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately fled to the deep mountains.

Zhang Shi panicked, and hurriedly pulled Xu Jingluo and Xu Jingling, and said, "Let's hide in the mountains, we will be caught by the Beiliang barbarians when it is too late!" ”

"No need to hide, blindly hiding is not a long-term solution." Xu Jingluo frowned, and then instructed Cui Ying: "Quickly gather all the girls and women together, I have come up with a clever plan to deal with those Northern Liang barbarians!" ”

Xu Jingluo whispered a few words to Cui Ying like this, and after explaining, she gathered all the women together and told them her plan.

Everyone felt that this plan was feasible, and they all nodded in agreement, and after making proper preparations, they immediately ran a short distance in the direction of the dense forest with a panicked demeanor.

After a while, a large number of Northern Liang barbarian soldiers came fiercely, stopped them with horses, and ordered everyone not to move, otherwise they would be killed!

Everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to run, so they had to stand there obediently with their heads in their hands.

When they ran over, they understood that sooner or later they would be caught by the Northern Liang barbarians, so why bother to run with that effort?

Soon, the soldiers of the Northern Liang gathered them together and ordered everyone to squat on the ground in four rows in an orderly manner, and they were not allowed to play tricks.

The scar-faced man at the head of the group rubbed his hands excitedly, grinned at the women in the first row, and then ordered them to raise their heads to show themselves, and the women did as they were told.

When he saw their faces clearly, the scar-faced man was suddenly terrified and retreated straight back again and again!

"Brothers! Remove! Evacuate now! The scar-faced man hurriedly waved his hand and shouted, "They look like they have smallpox, don't touch them!" ”

When the Beiliang barbarians present heard this, they scattered in shock, and their glowing eyes, which were green with excitement because they thought of having a "good meal" to enjoy, instantly widened at this moment, and they were as dead as ashes.

"What? How could a good person get infected with smallpox? I haven't had enough of it just now! ”

"What bad luck! I even ran into a sick person! ”

"What a sight to behold! It made us happy in vain, his grandmother's! ”

When the people, especially the women, heard this, the stone hanging in their throats finally fell to the ground, if it weren't for Miss Xu's cleverness to make them dress up as if they had been hit by smallpox, and bluff these villains, maybe everyone would have suffered this time!

Who knows, just when everyone thought that this group of Northern Liang soldiers would evacuate here soon, the scar-faced man suddenly clenched his fist in a vinegar bowl and said murderously: "Hmph! Anyway, they have been infected with smallpox, and they are of no use to us, so they will simply let them all die here, and then set fire to the corpses! ”

When everyone listened, they all looked at each other, and the women were even more discolored, unexpectedly that although they had a complete body, they still could not escape death, this soldier of Beiliang was really bad to the bone, outrageous!

Even if Zhou Quanru Xu Jingluo didn't consider that the Northern Liang soldiers were so inhuman, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and just about to come forward, the Zhang family next to him immediately stopped her, waved his hand vigorously, and signaled her not to act rashly!

At the moment when the situation is so tense, if she argues with reason, there is no doubt that she will definitely be hacked to death by that fierce scar-faced man, killing chickens and monkeys!

"Mother, don't worry!" Xu Jingluo turned his head, gently held Zhang's palm with his backhand, and said calmly: "The soldiers of the Northern Liang may not be arrogant and rude, let me try to see if I can persuade them with my three-inch incorruptible tongue!" ”

After the words fell, she separated from the crowd and walked out of the crowd, and then looked firmly at the scar-faced man, and said sonorously: "It is rumored that Emperor Jing'an of Northern Liang has worked hard to govern the country and loves the people like a son. ”

Xu Jingluo had only heard that the current ruler of Northern Liang was named Jing'an, and the rest was not clear, but she understood that the Southern Zhou Dynasty was rich in products and had a large population, and if Emperor Jing'an gave all the civilians of the Southern Zhou Dynasty to death, it would be equivalent to strangling free labor in the cradle, and since he was the king of a country, he should not be so ignorant and shallow!

Fortunately, Xu Jingluo won this bet, and the Northern Liang Imperial Court had really instructed the generals not to easily force the people of the Southern Zhou Dynasty to death!
