Chapter 67: Concealment

Wait, pick up someone else's clothes......

Could it be that the clothes they picked up were the clothes of those who died of the epidemic?!

didn't have time to explain more, Hu Changan hurriedly flew on his horse and ran towards the wasteland behind the village.

Coming to the wasteland, Hu Changan couldn't help but gasp.

Sure enough, the pits that had been dug up by the officers to bury the dead had been dug up, and all the robes on the corpses inside were gone.

Hu Chang'an's people are numb.

I didn't expect anyone to be so poor!

Even daring to take the clothes of a dead man is simply out of the question.

Hu Changan can persuade the villagers, but he can't persuade these called Huazi!

People have no clothes to wear and nothing to eat, and in order to survive, they can only take risks.

Hu Changan hurriedly rode back to his house, and urgently selected a group of people to watch on the wasteland outside the village.

At the moment, I can only send more people to watch, although talking is better than nothing, but it is better than nothing.

Hu Changan was distressed, and the errand who went to register cautiously stepped forward and said, "Master Hu, Lord Feng, I think there seems to be something wrong with the family at the end of the village, do you want to go and see?" ”

At the moment, it was not a way to meditate in the courtyard, so Hu Changan and Feng Qing followed the messenger towards the house.

After a while, Hu Changan and Feng Qing came to the door of the house.

The officer stepped forward and knocked on the door with a good look.

After a while, the door creaked open, and out came a man in his prime.

Although he is burly, this man's complexion is not very good.

When the messenger saw that someone was coming inside, he hurriedly shouted: "How many people in your family are sick, don't tell me quickly!" ”

The man was also surprised to see so many people coming from outside the door in one breath.

But after a while, he calmed down, and said in a rough voice, "Our whole family is ...... You're all healthy! ”

As he spoke, the man spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm.

This pale face looks like a terminally ill person at first glance.

With such obvious symptoms, if you want to say that he is not infected with the epidemic, the ghosts will not believe it.

Seeing that the man still looked hard-mouthed, the messenger was also helpless, and bowed down to Hu Changan and Feng Qing and said: "My lord, look at him, he obviously looks very sick, but he still says that he is not sick. ”

The villain asked again and again, and they all bit their mouths and did not let go. The villain also had no choice, so he had to report that he was not sick. ”

"It's okay a few days ago, there aren't many people like this, but you have more and more people like this in the past few days, and the villain really can't help it, so I invite you adults to come and have a look."

Hu Changan couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this.

Could it be that this is, a cover-up?!

If the villagers are secretly concealing the report, then the recent epidemic data will be useless.

The epidemic may not have been alleviated at all, but continues to spread in private!

If it weren't for today's errand officer who took them to see the truth with their own eyes, Hu Changan might have been kept in the dark!

Hu Changan couldn't help but be angry.

It seems that he is too young, has too little experience at the grassroots level, and does not understand the twists and turns in the grassroots level!

And Feng Qing was also shocked when he heard this.

However, Feng Qing has more experience than Hu Changan after all, and it is not uncommon for this kind of thing to be contrary to the yang and yin when he is the county commander.

After a while, Feng Qing calmed down and shouted to the guards behind him, "Quick, go in and search for me!" ”

Suddenly, a group of guards rushed into the house like vicious wolves.

The manly people all exploded and tried to stop it, but they were pressed to the ground by two guards and couldn't move.

After a while, the guards came to report: "Report to your lordship, we have also found a sick woman and a little boy in the inner courtyard. ”

From the wide open door, Hu Changan saw with sharp eyes that two people, one big and one small, were lying on the bed, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

Seeing this, the man was immediately very sad, and he didn't know where the strength came from, but he broke free from the clamps of the two guards, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "My lord, please raise your noble hand!" It's really not easy for our family! ”

"At first, my daughter-in-law was sick, then the child, and finally me, how good is this!"

"It is said that once the infection is reported, the back will be dragged to the valley of the side courtyard to fend for itself, we don't want this!"

"Even if you really want to die, it's better to die at home!"

Looking at the man's tearful eyes, Hu Changan was also silent.

It seems that it was someone from the county government who leaked Hu Changan's thoughts.

Originally, it was okay when I didn't register, but now that I have registered, the people naturally want to get into trouble, for fear that they will be accidentally dragged into a deserted valley.

Looking at the terminally ill man in front of him, Hu Changan had no choice but to put the person back.

After all, it is not only the Han family who concealed the report, and the more important thing now is to go back and discuss countermeasures, so as to catch all the people who concealed the report.

Returning to the Yamen of Dao County, Hu Changan and Feng Qing's eyes widened and they were speechless.

Even Hu Changan was at a loss, with his head down and thinking hard about countermeasures.

However, at this moment, an errand officer suddenly rushed in in surprise and said loudly: "My lords, the people who were transferred to other counties are here!" ”

Hu Changan and Feng Qing looked at each other, and they were both overjoyed.

The two walked out of the county office quickly, only to see a large group of people in errand uniforms standing at the gate of the county office, and it was estimated that there were hundreds of people at a cursory glance.

Seeing this, Hu Changan couldn't wait to pat his thigh happily.

It's just in time!

With so many people, the method of going to the valley to quarantine can be put on the agenda!

However, the surprises for Hu Changan are not limited to these.

Just as Feng Qing was arranging these errands in the past, there was another sound of horses' hooves on the dirt road at the entrance of the village.

Hu Changan followed the prestige and saw a pair of black-armored cavalrymen coming galloping on horseback.

It's the reinforcements of the Prince's Mansion!

Hu Changan was even more pleased.

With so many manpower, the force value is definitely full!

......

In the village, an oppressive atmosphere is permeating.

Without socializing, without mahjong and a series of entertainment, everyone can only stay in their own small rooms, waiting for the plague that will come at an unknown time.

The threat of death, like the sword of Damocles hanging overhead, will fall if you are not careful.

Suddenly, the silence in the village was broken by a shout from the servants: "Everyone assemble in the village square, the living gods have new instructions!" ”

Living immortals? It's that nonsense!

For Hu Changan, who made an accurate prediction, everyone was also respectful and afraid.

In this oppressive atmosphere, Hu Changan is tantamount to their last straw.
