303. Into the city

When Zhou Ke heard this, he hurriedly apologized, "I'm really sorry, I haven't mentioned women before." ”

Lin Xi couldn't help but be curious: "Then what are you mentioning?" ”

Zhou Ke said honestly: "My sword, as well as the people who intended to assassinate my master, were almost all dead when they were taken away. ”

Lin Xi: "......"

Excuse me, she shouldn't have asked.

"It's not too early, Miss Lin, let's go first. I've got my horses ready. Zhou Ke led the way, and after a while, Lin Xi saw the horse they had ridden when they came.

Lin Xi didn't talk nonsense, turned over and got on his horse, and went to Jinling City with Zhou Ke.

In the end, the two stopped five miles outside the city, then walked over and stopped three hundred meters from the city gate.

Because there is no cover in front of it, there is a flat river at the door, and there are guards on the city wall.

Lin Xi's expression was a little indescribable, "That's it...... Are you sure you can get there?? ”

"Yes." Zhou Ke said firmly, he looked at the sky, and said: "In a while, it will be the time of the child, when the guards change duty, there will be no one there for half a cup of tea, so let's just rush over as soon as possible." ”

Lin Xi: "......"

Run your legs wild.

Lin Xi couldn't help but ask again: "Do you think that with half a cup of tea, we can run over, plus open the city gate and hang the city gate, and succeed without people finding out?" ”

Zhou Ke said: "Yes, I tried it last night, and it was very fast." ”

Lin Xi asked, "How did you try?" ”

Zhou Ke said: "Use light work. It's here in a moment. ”

Lin Xi: "...... Have you ever thought that I won't work lightly? "What is she going to do?!

Zhou Ke's expression was blank for a moment, then he slowly turned his head, and his gaze tentatively fell on the back of Lin Xi's neck.

Lin Xi: "......"

It is her fate to flip the table and go crazy.

At this moment, two whistles suddenly sounded in the distance.

Zhou Ke immediately said: "It's time!" ”

When the two looked over, they saw that the guards on the city wall had retreated to each side. The night was dark, and they rushed over at this time, with the cover of the night, so that they would not be seen.

Zhou Ke looked at Lin Xi tentatively again.

Lin Xi said convincingly: "Come on, come on, don't be merciful, it's important in the past - close to your mother!" ”

Halfway through the words, Lin Xi's whole person suddenly took off into the air, and was directly picked up by Zhou Ke, and the surrounding scenery quickly retreated.

This time, Zhou Ke didn't lift Lin Xi's back collar, he put Lin Xi on his shoulders!

Lin Xi felt that her abdomen was pressed against Zhou Ke's strong shoulder bones, and if she pushed her stomach out, the world would spin in front of her.

Just when Lin Xi was in a trance, Zhou Ke stopped, he put Lin Xi down like a cloud, and then pulled her by the sleeve and pulled her straight to the door, hiding in the corner against the city gate.

Zhou Ke's ears moved slightly, "Miss Lin, someone is here!" ”

didn't hear the sound, Zhou Ke turned his head to look at Lin Xi.

Lin Xi's expression was very indescribable.

"Miss Lin, what's wrong with you?"

"I-"

At the same time, with a heavy sound, the city gate slowly opened the cracks, and a head poked out, a man in his thirties, with a beard on his face.

"Lord Zhou, is that you?"

Zhou Ke turned his head and took a step back to reveal Lin Xi, "It's me." This is ......"

"-Gross!"

Lin Xi glanced at the person who came, and couldn't help it, so he spit out against the wall.

Fortunately, she was still a little sensible, and instead of spitting directly on the ground, she tore off a collar and continued.

Man: "......?" ”

Even if he doesn't look good, he won't vomit when he sees him.

"Miss Lin!" Zhou Ke looked at Lin Xi worriedly.

Lin Xi waved his hand and barely straightened his waist, "I can, let's go in quickly!" ”

Time was pressing, and Zhou Ke couldn't say anything more, so he entered the city gate with Lin Xi.

After entering, Lin Xi saw that it was a street, empty, and bleak.

The person who answered Xu paid attention to Lin Xi's gaze and said, "Most of the people here have been infected with the plague and have been dragged to the isolation camp in the west. ”

Lin Xi patted his face and sobered up, and asked, "Is the current plague still very serious?" ”

"It's not serious, the government posted a notice saying that a good solution has been found, and many people are indeed getting better. It's just that there are too many people, and it will take some time to heal. The man said as he led them into the alley.

As soon as he entered, there were people patrolling the street behind him.

Lin Xi and Zhou Ke carefully followed the man left and right, and finally they didn't know where they were, and the man led them into a small farmer's courtyard.

"Lord Zhou, this is my cousin's place, he has died of the plague, and he can't come back. If you don't dislike it, just live here. The man said.

Lin Xi and Zhou Ke both said a word of mourning.

Then Lin Xi immediately asked, "I want to ask, who is the official who usually manages you?" ”

The man looked at Zhou Ke, saw Zhou Ke nodded, and said, "Naturally, it is Lord Li who is guarding the city." ”

Lin Xi: "Isn't Master Yi from Yi Mansion here?" ”

The man snorted and said; "Of course not. The Yi family is a big family, the master of the family is in full swing, who of us officials doesn't know him? That Lord Yi is still patrolling Jiangyou, and it was supposed to be Jinling according to the time, but there is no plague to close the city, and he can't enter. ”

Lin Xi asked again: "Is there an adult surnamed Shen?" ”

The man shook his head, "No." ”

Lin Xi thought to himself, it seems that Shen Chen and Yi Hong still haven't exposed their whereabouts, is it just secretly planning the layout, and letting the city officials do the things on the surface, so not many people know?

Lin Xi finally asked: "In the quarantine camp for the plague in the west, there is a man surnamed Du who carries several carts of medicinal herbs?" ”

The man thought about it carefully and said, "I have never heard of someone surnamed Du." However, a few days ago, there was indeed an extra person around Lord Li, and he donated a lot of medicinal materials, and Lord Li was also quite polite to him. Many officials scolded him when he saw the situation, but he never said a word to them. ”

That's it!

Lin Xi said: "Since you are in charge of the city gate, I want to come to your official position is not too low, please find a way to help me bring a message to that person, just say that his sister-in-law is here." If he is really dumb, please bring him to me. ”

"But you two entered the city privately, and you ......," the man hesitated.

Zhou Ke immediately said: "You can do it." That is the friend of this Miss Lin, and when he sees Miss Lin, he will thank you. In addition, Miss Lin is a doctor who can cure the plague, and the officials above know about her, and they won't blame you. ”

"Yes!"

The man immediately departed.

Zhou Ke said: "Miss Lin, wait a minute, I'll go and see if it's convenient to rest in the back room." ”

"Let's go together, I can still clean up."

Lin Xi went in and saw that there were a total of two rooms in this small courtyard that could sleep, and she and Zhou Ke happened to be one room for each person. The beds are not very dirty, you can sleep directly, and the bedding or something is new, taking into account that the person knows what to do, and knows that they are going to prepare it specially.
