Chapter 17: Sickness is rampant

The next day, the city gate, which was supposed to be opened three days later, was unexpectedly opened early.

The surrounding homeless people flocked to the past, and many people pulled their wives and daughters and sisters, eager to contribute them to Han Taishou.

The man who came out of the city gate was wearing a suit of armor and a long knife at his waist, and he heard from the people that he was Yang Xiong, the captain of the school.

He led hundreds of guards, all dressed in heavy armor, and watched the people outside the city vigilantly.

"Stand still! Don't mess around! ”

"Don't mess around!"

"Those who dare to be presumptuous will be killed!"

……

Zhou Yan and Wang Qiang forcibly squeezed through the crowd, and they held up their waist cards, "Captain Yang!" Captain Yang! ”

"We are waiting for the official government officials! Ordered to escort the criminals ......"

"Please let us go into the city and rest."

Captain Yang glanced at them, "The official government is poor? ”

They nodded their heads.

Captain Yang smiled mockingly, "I haven't heard of it, get out of here, delay our Han Taishou's matter, beware of the dog's life!" ”

Left and right immediately stepped forward and pushed them away, and they had no chance to resist at all, so they were forcibly twisted into a place full of corpses.

Captain Yang cursed a word of bad luck, and then began to ask the people to send the women to the front, he glanced at them one by one, but anyone who could see them would order his men to bring them back to the city, and at the same time leave a few bags of food for his family.

They would pick twenty or thirty beautiful women at a time.

Jiang Luo stood in the crowd, looking up and could only see the back of the black head, completely unaware of what was happening in front of him.

The crowd was restless, many people desperately pulled the woman in their hands forward, and the cries in the crowd and the cries of not stepping on them were endless.

Chen Xianyue was afraid that Jiang Luo would be injured by mistake, so she immediately pulled Jiang Luo and Jiang Ran against the crowd and walked behind. Jiang Cheng's eyes have been staring at his sister Jiang Luo's body, and he followed closely, afraid that there would be too many people and his sister would get separated.

The shackles on their feet severely restricted their movements.

For most of the hour, Chen Xianyue pulled Jiang Luo and Jiang Ran out of the crowd.

She turned around and wanted to look for the traces of the rest of the Jiang family, and when she looked around, her eyes were full of people, and she was no longer in sight of the yacha and the Jiang family.

"Mother...... I'm so scared ......" Jiang Ran shrank his head, the black crowd, and the smell of rotting corpses.

"Little lady...... I'm so scared, let's get out of here. Jiang Luo drooped his eyebrows, pursed his lips pitifully, and tears seemed to fall.

"But let's leave like this...... "Let's not talk about whether we can survive or not, if we are caught again, it will be terrible."

Besides, they don't have an identity document, and if they encounter a population check, they will go to jail.

Jiang Luo's heart was uneasy, this place was really unbearable. Not to mention the gathering of the people, there are robberies and fights from time to time. Just talking about these corpses and people who eat human flesh, this will definitely be infected, and such a dense crowd, once it spreads, will inevitably be full of corpses.

And Yangchuan is in chaos like this, Xu An and their yacha can't even enter the city, with a few of them, if they want to find them again in the chaotic world, it is simply a fool's dream.

The most important thing is that Han Taishou exchanged food for women, once the people's own women were exchanged, they would definitely find a way to rob other people's women......

"Woo woo, I'm so scared, if my sister and I are also snatched away...... Woo woo woo and never see each other again. ”

Jiang Luo "bar" shed tears.

Jiang Cheng pulled her, "Xiaoniang is waiting for her grandfather here, I'll take my sister away." ”

He raised his legs and walked away as he spoke, and Chen Xianyue almost trotted to keep up with them, "Nonsense, where are you going?" ”

"My sister is scared here, I'm going to take her away."

"Even if we are caught again, it will be a bad life for our brothers and sisters, take care of your little mother." Jiang Cheng calmly bowed to her, and his expression could not show joy or anger.

"Cheng'er!"

"Luo'er!"

……

It turned out that everyone in the Jiang family saw that there was a lot of danger in front of the city gate, and the Jiang Liu clan was almost pulled by others to change food, so they could only leave quickly.

Xu An looked gloomy, and said that he would not give his life to the court anymore, he planned to raise it for a few days, and if he wanted to get some food, he would go back to the capital.

It is better to die with a family than to die.

Zhou Yan is like a frosted eggplant, his family is not good, and there are old people and children at home waiting to survive on his monthly money, but now he really can't do it.

Jiang Luo frowned, what kind of luck is this, every time he wants to escape, he happens to be caught.

She walked up to Zhou Yan and asked innocently, "Uncle Zhou, can you help my brother open the shackles?" ”

Zhou Yan nodded irritably, took out the key from his waist and handed it to her.

The crowd untied their restraints and moved their hands and feet.

The bleak autumn wind blew by, and a chill poured out.

The sun was dusk and the sky was full of dark clouds.

The gates slammed shut again, and the crowd dispersed.

Suddenly, there was a chaotic exclamation from the front, followed by heart-rending cries.

"Xianggong! Messire! The woman, dressed in cloth and with messy hair, fell on the ground and wept bitterly.

A moment ago, the captain took a fancy to her, but her husband would rather starve to death than exchange her for food, but she didn't expect that after a while, her husband suddenly vomited and fainted on the ground and died.

"Must be hungry."

"Yes, what kind of hero is this man pretending to be, I see that his mother-in-law is quite beautiful, maybe he can exchange three bags of grain."

The onlookers talked a lot, and some people had bad intentions to hit her who had just died of her husband.

Jiang Luo couldn't see it really from a distance through the crowd, she vaguely heard that during this time, vomiting did not stop, and there were not a few people who fainted and died.

Everyone thought it was because of starvation, and no one cared about the inconsequential others.

A few men stepped forward and grabbed the crying woman, "Your husband is dead, it's useless for you to cry, why don't you follow us?" ”

"Let go! Let go! "The woman was holding the corpse to death, but she was the opponent of several men.

"This woman has changed her food, and it is enough for them to live for another month or two."

Jiang Luo leaned over to see the truth, Jiang Cheng thought she wanted to save people, and hurriedly stopped her, "Sister, don't be nosy." ”

"I'm not nosy, I want to see the man's ......" death.

She looked closely, and there were already people who had rushed over and tore at the corpse's arms and legs, they were like wild beasts, completely devoid of morality.

The eye sockets are deep, the face is dark and blue, the arms are swollen and pus-draining, vomiting does not stop, and the head is dizzy......

It's an epidemic!

Jiang Luo immediately covered his nose with his sleeve, "Let's go!" It's the plague! ”

Everyone in the Jiang family panicked.

Pestilence?

The scramble for the corpse stopped blankly, shook his hand in disgust, and dispersed in a hurry.

From time to time, someone in the crowd fell, and everyone panicked at the moment.

The epidemic was by no means sudden, and it must have been lurking among the population for a long time.

Jiang Luo shook her feet, she reached out and touched her slightly hot forehead, won't trumpet?
