Dakang Mansion is located in the east of Liangzhou, one of the nine states in the world, the central city of Dakang Mansion has experienced more than 400 years since its construction, during which the wind and rain are smooth, the people are rich and healthy, and have not been disturbed by the war.

However, today, the prosperity of the past has disappeared, and Dakang City is finally facing an unprecedented catastrophe.

The streets of the city, which were still busy half a year ago, are also sparsely populated at this time, and the occasional pedestrian passing through the street is also in a hurry, and the face is covered with gauze. Occasionally, the wind blew up a straw mat on the side of the street, and under the straw mat was a rotting and stinky corpse.

Two passers-by without gauze were a bit of a striking, one of them was a tall and thin man, while the other was an ordinary-looking teenager standing respectfully behind him.

"I didn't expect such a change to happen in this great city after a year of retreat. Xie Yun couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the grand scene that had just entered Dakang City.

"Don't you want to die?" An old man passed by Xie Yun's side, and seeing that Xie Yun and Yang Peng did not cover their mouths and noses with gauze, they couldn't help but say loudly: "There is an outbreak of plague here, and none of the people who have the plague can live, I think you look like a foreigner, why don't you hurry up and go to Langzhong to buy a piece of gauze soaked in medicinal juice to cover your mouth and nose!"

"More reminders!" Xie Yun thanked him, and then asked, "May I ask my uncle, when did the plague break out in this Dakang City? ”

The old man wept and sighed: "Just half a year ago, a black wind came inexplicably enveloped the city, and many people were inexplicably infected with the plague, I heard that the well-informed monks in the city said that the plague beast Yujiang caused trouble, and I don't know where the fierce beast came from, only the monks who have successfully practiced qi can be saved from being infected by the epidemic, and mortals are powerless in the face of this plague, and pity my son and daughter-in-law." Speaking of this, the old man was silent.

Xie Yun couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and was about to ask something, when suddenly there was a smashing sound from the town.

I saw that several men also did not have gauze on their faces, but their faces were already covered with rotten sores, and fishy red pus continued to flow from the rotten sores. The men went from house to house smashing open doors with stones, and then stormed into other people's homes and looted all kinds of belongings.

There are also two men who dragged out a young girl from a family and began to pick up the girl's clothes on the spot. The girl's parents rushed out of the house, but they were beaten with wooden sticks by several other men with rotten sores and the two old men broke their blood and fainted on the street. The girl cried and begged as she struggled, "Please, let me and my father and mother go." ”

A man smirked, rubbed his face full of sores on the girl's crystal white skin, and said while rubbing: "Does the little lady dislike me for suffering from the epidemic? It doesn't matter, I have seen a lot of women like you in the past few days, and at first I would rather die than obey, but when I infect them with the epidemic, the appearance of chaste martyrs will be completely gone, and they will all be sick, and no one will dislike anyone, and they will all become obedient and let our brothers enjoy them." ”

Xie Yun frowned at all this in front of him and asked, "What's going on?"

"Evil!" said the old man sadly, "Originally, they were all honest and ordinary people, but when they contracted the epidemic and learned that they would not live long, they formed groups to do some ** captive things, wishing that others would also be infected with the same disease as themselves." Before they notice us, let's get out of here. With that, the old man turned around and walked away quickly, and his figure quickly disappeared into the alley.

"It's really better than a beast!" Xie Yun approached the group of men, the killing machine surging in his chest, there are always these people who are doing nonsense in troubled times, they really should be killed!

A man who was robbing property saw Xie Yun who was slowly approaching, and said with a cruel smile: "Where did you come from, it seems that you haven't been infected yet, wait for the uncle to pass on the illness to you, join the uncle and we will be lawless together!"

Xie Yun sneered: "You yourself want to die, but you still have to pull others along, and your conscience is eaten by dogs?"

The man laughed as if he had heard some joke: "It is precisely because we want to die that we will understand that people cannot enjoy the use of birds in this life!" He went on to say: "In the past, I only knew about farming, and I was afraid of the landlords, the officials, and the king's law, but now they are all afraid of me!

"Then," Xie Yun said, "I don't think you have a chance to get away." After speaking, Xie Yun pointed at the sword trick, and before the man could even react, he saw a blue light flash around him, and the flesh and blood on his body were cut off by the blue light, and the flesh and blood flew for a while.

The man's incessant screams attracted the attention of his companions, who watched in horror only to see that the man's flesh and blood were constantly peeling off, and there were only bones left in many places, and he had been painfully killed before he was killed.

"It's a monk!" the men were so frightened that they couldn't stop stepping back.

At the same time, at the end of the street, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly appeared, all of whom were wrapped in gauze and held crossbows in their hands. With the appearance of this group of officers and soldiers, those men who were suffering from the epidemic suddenly beckoned their companions to run away like mice seeing cats.

However, they did not have this opportunity, with the order of the leading officer, the crossbow was fired in unison, and the crossbow arrows were shot one after another, with a sharp sound of breaking the air through the bodies of those sick men, and those sick men fell to the ground like straws, and there was no longer life.

The young girl who had been bullied by those men before, seeing that the officers and soldiers had killed those men, she got up from the ground and stumbled towards the officers and soldiers, saying as she ran: "Please, save my father and mother, they are injured, please send them to Langzhong." ”

When those officers and soldiers saw the girl coming, their faces changed greatly. "Don't let her get close!" exclaimed the leading officer, "she has been in contact with people who have suffered from the epidemic, and it is inevitable that she will be infected and kill her!"

Several crossbow arrows were shot, all nailed to the girl's body, and the huge power even flew out of the girl upside down, and the girl slammed into the bluestone-paved street with a frightened expression, and died of anger.

The leading officer then ordered: "Kill all those who have come into contact with the sick, and leave not a single corpse behind!" ”

The officers and soldiers acted immediately, and the poor people, who had only been robbed by the sick men before, were now confronted with the crossbow arrows of these officers and soldiers, and they wept and begged, but in response to them were the crossbow arrows that kept coming in. Soon, the wailing gradually died down, and the people were almost dead.

Xie Yun, who was watching all this not far away, sighed secretly, in this world, human life is really cheaper than grass, although those officers and soldiers are too ruthless, but in this period when the epidemic is rampant, this is undoubtedly the best way to prevent the spread of the epidemic. He didn't want to look any further, and turned to leave.

"Stop!" The officer saw Xie Yun and Yang Peng, and shouted, "You didn't bring a face towel, could it be that you are also infected?" These officers and soldiers did not see Xie Yun's methods, so naturally Xie Yun was just an ordinary person.

Xie Yun didn't say much, the blue flying sword flashed, and the crossbow in the officer's hand suddenly turned into two, and the wound was smooth and neat, which made the officer shocked.

Xie Yun and Yang Peng walked away, and those soldiers also knew that the two were monks, so they didn't dare to stop them and let the two leave.

After leaving Dakang City, the depression in Xie Yun's chest was relieved. Yang Peng was already sad and indignant, he was a lowest-level peasant background, and when he saw the tragic situation of the people, he felt even more deeply sympathetic.

"Doesn't anyone care?, where are all those monks, why can't you see a single monk in the huge Dakang City!" Xie Yun said angrily.

"Let's go!" Xie Yun said, "Let's go find them and ask for clarification!"

Xie Yun didn't know where the Dakang Mansion sect was located, he only knew about a gathering place for monks in Luofeng Mountain, so he took Yang Peng and walked towards Luofeng Mountain.

The road was littered with decomposing corpses, and flocks of crows and wild dogs were biting at each other over the carrion on the corpses. When Xie Yun's master and apprentice walked through a village, the villagers rushed forward and asked Xie Yun, "Are you immortals?"

Before Xie Yun could answer, some villagers said in frustration: "How can they be immortals, you look at them like that, they don't have the demeanor of immortals at all." ”

Immediately, some villagers retorted: "That immortal was not a mortal at the beginning. ”

Xie Yun couldn't help but ask what was going on. A villager told him that not long ago, an immortal passed by this place, and when he saw the suffering of this place, he gave dozens of elixirs to save the village from the epidemic. However, the speed of the spread of the disease was beyond people's imagination, and although the elixir given by the gods cured the sick villagers, after the gods left, more villagers fell ill. From then on, whenever the villagers saw a stranger passing by, they would ask if it was another immortal passing by.

Xie Yun knew that the so-called immortals were naturally the cultivators of the Xiuzhen sect, and listening to what the villagers said, the immortals who gave medicine to help the world also had a righteous style. I don't know much about the cultivation realm of Dakang Mansion, what sects are nearby, and which sects are good at alchemy, and I don't know anything about it. It's just that I don't know why, since that cultivator can give the elixir to eliminate the epidemic, why is it only for one village, why not give the elixir to save more people, water and fire?

Xie Yun told the villagers that he was not an immortal, and those villagers left one by one dejectedly when they heard this, obviously they also knew in their hearts that immortals were not so easy to meet.

At this moment, a villager suddenly ran from afar, shouting loudly as he ran: "In front! In Fulu Town, there are immortals who appear to save people!"
