The third child looked at his father and mother and his son and daughter-in-law who were pulling the cart away, and hurriedly turned around and told his villagers that someone in their village might have been infected with the plague, so every family should stay away.

Only then did the villagers know why the hungry people were rioting, and it turned out that some of them had died of the plague, which was terrible.

Everyone hurriedly packed up their things and left, and the villagers who were originally familiar with each other and rushed together consciously distanced themselves, and at this time everyone felt that something seemed to be missing.

"Hey, what about Uncle Hanlin's family."

"yes, the village chief is gone."

"A lot of people are gone, even Orion."

"They wouldn't have known the news and run away."

"Let's go and ask the lieutenant what's going on."

The third child saw that he couldn't hide it, so he could only bulge with the plate, and the villagers looked at the third child with wrong eyes, they felt exactly the same as the third child's mother, but the chief was afraid that the old man Xiang would take away his power.

Xiang Laosan was speechless in the face of many suspicious eyes, he suddenly didn't want to say anything, he just left if he wanted to, and whatever he didn't want to go, he didn't want to care about this mess.

The six princes have been discussing with Zhao's shopkeeper and them, although their secret guards and subordinates have prepared a decoction, it is definitely not enough to treat so many people, so it is urgent to distinguish between them.

Those with mild symptoms of infection should be fed medicine first, and one can be saved, while those with severe symptoms of infection can only be put together and their bodies will be burned after they die.

The hungry people dragged their families with their mouths, and the journey was not fast, so they simply took this opportunity to set up roadblocks one by one to separate people, and the more they walked in front, the milder the symptoms would definitely be.

The villagers of Xiangzhang Village were lucky, they walked in the front, and when they had walked almost 60 people, a group of people suddenly appeared, dragging heavy stones, piling them up on the road, and blocking the road in a blink of an eye.

The villagers were taken aback and hurriedly shouted, but those people simply ignored them, and when they found that one of the villagers wanted to pick up the barricades, they directly whipped them.

When the third child heard the shouting, he hurriedly looked back and saw the stones piled up higher than a person, and he already understood in his heart that if one of these villagers got the plague, those people would be doomed.

Xiang Laosan finally shed tears, and said that he regretted not listening to the old man, if he could listen to Uncle Han Lin, he would take the villagers away quietly, leaving those villagers who might be infected, and they would not have suffered such a serious loss.

After silently counting the number of people, there were nearly thirty-eight families in the whole village, excluding the ten families taken away by Uncle Han Lin, and now there are less than ten families left here, because the last family was separated by stones.

The crying from behind continued, Xiang Laosan turned around, pulled up the rope on the cart, lowered his head and hurried forward, but he didn't know when, there were also a lot of stones in front of him.

"Rest and rest, eat what you should eat, drink what you should drink."

Xiang Laosan didn't think much about it, let his daughter-in-law start the fire and cook, after working hard for so long, if he still couldn't escape the word "death", then he wouldn't escape.

The third daughter-in-law glanced at her man, and then at the little tree that she didn't know what she was thinking, silently took out the food from the cart, found a few stones to build a simple stove, and began to cook porridge.

"Mother, how much water do we have?" Xiaoshu asked.

"That's all there is to it, I have to drink porridge today at night, and I won't drink the water."

The third daughter-in-law sighed secretly, there was originally Uncle Hanlin's house, they seemed to have a bottom in their hearts, in case it was really time to eat or drink, Uncle Hanlin would definitely be willing to reach out and pull a hand.

"Dad, if we can get to the provincial capital, we won't leave, I'm going to stay there to take the Xiucai exam." Xiaoshu looked at the third child and said.

Xiang Laosan didn't know how to answer, he didn't know what the situation was in the provincial capital, in case there was no water or food like his hometown, what did they rely on to keep it there.

Although the other villagers didn't speak, Xiaoshu's words made them dissatisfied, and they originally followed the old man of the Xiang family, but you, Xiang Laosan, wanted to drive the family away.

And the Xiang family must not have been infected with the plague when they left, and these people, who stayed in the plague circle for most of the night, who knows if they were infected.

Xiaoshu actually wants to go to the provincial capital to take the Xiucai test, so what should they do as villagers, don't eat or drink to accompany you to take the Xiucai test, but now the future is uncertain, and there are no fools who come out to coax people.

The elder of the old man has long seen the looks of the villagers, especially the second child of his own family, who looks like he is gloating and calculating, which makes him feel tired.

"Shu'er, I can't say anything now, let's take a step at a time, if we can go to the provincial capital, then it's okay to say, otherwise we should sleep and eat." The old lieutenant spoke.

Everyone looked at the stones raised high on both sides, and they all lowered their heads, and for a while, the atmosphere was extremely sluggish, and even the temperature seemed to be a few degrees lower.

"Master, the person who threw the body has been caught." A secret guard ran out and said half-kneeling in front of the six princes.

"Lead the way, I will ask his master who he really is, and why he is so cruel to the people." The sixth prince clenched his little fists and walked out.

"Master, no, in case that secret guard also gets the plague, we ......"

The Dark Guard didn't continue, and there were a lot of Dark Guards who went to investigate.

Shopkeeper Zhao stood up, he was old, and if he died, he would die, but no matter what, he had to find out this harmful spirit.

Shopkeeper Zhao walked into a bright room, and a man with his hands up, tied together, was hung on the beams of the room, let people open all the doors, and let people take off all the clothes on the hanging man's body.

The secret guard was so embarrassed that his face was flushed, he could accept whipping, poisoning, and even more cruel torture, but he couldn't stand this, he was naked in broad daylight, and he didn't want to be a human anymore.

"Say, are you the person of the eldest prince, the third prince, the fourth prince, or the fifth prince, I guess, the eldest prince is unlikely, the time is not right, the third prince, is not brave enough.

As for the fifth prince, he is currently a good brother with the sixth prince, so he will not do this, and the rest are the people of the fourth prince. ”

The dark guard closed his eyes, and asked you to guess correctly and ask a question.

"But the fourth prince is not fond of the wind and snow, how can he do this, if you want the sixth prince to die of the plague, why don't you let him taste the plague first."

Shopkeeper Zhao said slowly, but his eyes were fixed on the face of the dark guard, not missing any clues.

"Where are the Four Princes now?"

Shopkeeper Zhao suddenly asked loudly, startling the secret guard.

But a secret guard is a secret guard, how can there be a reason to sell his master, even if he betrays his master and gets his life, it is temporary, and it is still a dead end after all.
