Chapter 383: It's Greasy!

"Isn't the mysterious death of these officials in three years, Lord Castle Lord, not a cause for concern?" Su Yunfei looked at the city lord and asked in a deep voice.

According to the archives, after the plague ended, those officials had physical problems, because the treatment of the plague was too hard and harder, so no one would think much about it at that time, and only a person like Su Yunfei who was delicate would notice it.

The city lord was slightly stunned, hugged his fists and saluted, and said helplessly:

"Chief Su, I'm sorry, Xia Guan hasn't dealt with the plague, so he doesn't know much about this."

Su Yunfei held his hands and said:

"Don't blame the City Lord, I want to check the files of all the people who have contracted the plague in the south."

The city lord said respectfully:

"Chief Su can check it at will, and I will arrange for you to have another hundred officials to assist!"

Su Yunfei hugged his fist in return,

"There's Lord Lao!"

For the next seven days, Su Yunfei and the others searched in the archives for the archives of the people who died of the plague in Nanli City, and almost never stopped.

Xiao Yue'er felt that she had miscalculated this time, and she thought that she could travel with her Yunfei brother, but she didn't expect to soak in the archives to check the files.

Su Yunfei looked at Xiao Yue'er's annoyed little expression and rewarded her with an imperial sword, Xiao Yue'er instantly had the spirit and worked very hard.

Seven days later, all the files were finally checked, and in the plague of thirteen years, more than 300,000 people died of the plague in Nanli City, so after the inspection, those officials walked out of the archives with black circles under their eyes.

Su Yunfei and Wu Changqing, the six city lords sat together, and Su Yunfei said in a deep voice:

"Synthesizing the archives of these people who died of the plague, I found a common denominator, these people all have some abilities that are more or less different from ordinary people, either they are infinitely powerful, or they have amazing ears, eyes, and hearing, or they are the candidate disciples of some sects, and I don't believe that there is no conspiracy."

Everyone has been in the archives for the past few days, even Wu Changqing has helped for three days, hearing Su Yunfei's words, everyone agrees very much, and they are also very dignified, if it is really a conspiracy, then what is the mastermind behind the scenes, everyone is puzzled.

Immediately, Su Yunfei took out a talisman sword and wrote a letter to send it to the capital, he wanted to check whether the plague situation in various places in the Great Xia Kingdom for so many years was the same as that of Nanli City.

"Lord Castle, please arrange for some people to accompany me to visit the families of those who died of the plague." Su Yunfei clenched his fists and said.

The city lord did not hesitate at all, his execution was very strong, and he soon transferred more than a thousand soldiers and servants to assist Su Yunfei.

Su Yunfei, Xiao Yue'er and Liu Rusheng Cai'er went into two ways and visited the homes of each family member.

Su Yunfei led Xiao Yue'er to an old mansion in the south of the city, and it was a woman who was over half a hundred years old who opened the door.

"What's the matter with the two of you?"

Su Yunfei said:

"Hello, we are officials of the City Lord's Mansion, and we want to know about your son?"

When she heard that it was her son, her face was grief-stricken, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

"My miserable child, he was only fifteen years old when he left, what mistake did he make, God gave him the plague, God is not fair!"

"Auntie, we want to know if your son is anything out of the ordinary? And what happened to him before the plague?" Su Yunfei comforted his wife and asked softly.

"Come in and talk!" The woman stopped crying and led Su Yunfei and Xiao Yue'er into the courtyard, and the three of them sat at the stone table in the courtyard, and the woman said softly:

"My son's ears have been extremely sensitive since he was a child, and my son can hear it clearly when the neighbor next door hides in the house and whispers, thirteen years ago, he was favored by an immortal master of the Qingyun Sect, saying that my son has the potential to become an immortal master, who knows that it didn't take long for my son to get the plague, otherwise my son would definitely be able to become an immortal master, God, why take my son away!"

The more the woman spoke, the more excited she became, crying so much that she made Xiao Yue'er cry, and Su Yunfei felt a big head and comforted

It took a long time to appease the two.

Then, Su Yunfei and Xiao Yue'er visited the families of many people who died due to the plague, and without exception, those who died of the plague were people who were different from ordinary people.

At this point, Su Yunfei can already be sure that there is definitely a conspiracy, but he can't figure out who is behind the scenes and what the purpose is.

Liu Rusheng and Cai'er both visited the same result, Wu Changqing was not idle, and took a team of people to visit for a day, and the result was the same.

It was also in the evening when everyone was analyzing the results, a Great Xia royal family worshipper flew to the City Lord's Mansion, and after seeing Su Yunfei, he saluted respectfully and said:

"See Chief Su, this is what Master Li Kangda asked me to hand over to you."

After handing over the ring to Su Yunfei, the royal family worshiped and left, and Su Yunfei immediately opened the ring, which was a detailed record of the plagues of the Xia Kingdom for more than 5,000 years, filled with a whole ring.

Seeing so many files, Xiao Yue'er immediately cried and mourned, and wanted to check the files again.

It took them three days to consult all the files, and they found that for 5,000 years there had been an average of one plague every ten years, and that the location was irregular, but without exception all those infected with the plague died, and the officials who dealt with the plague also died one after another within three years.

Thirteen years ago was the largest and last outbreak of plague in history, half of the three thousand counties of Great Xia had an outbreak of plague, and the death toll reached more than 60 million.

After reading these files, Su Yunfei frowned and fell into deep thought, who is behind the scenes, and what is his purpose?

Suddenly, he remembered the time pool, and then led everyone to the Demon Suppression Palace, Su Yunfei recalled in his mind the cremation of those who died due to the plague, hoping to find where those corpses went.

Because it was thirteen years ago, it didn't cost Su Yunfei much energy, but to his surprise, the picture had always been blurry, and it was a blurry picture after many attempts.

You don't have to think about it to know that you have been blinded by someone.

Everyone came out of the Demon Suppression Palace, looking depressed.

Su Yunfei smiled bitterly, originally wanted to accompany Liu Rusheng and Cai'er to find his father and mother who had disappeared for thirteen years, but he found out an eternal conspiracy, knowing that it was a conspiracy but he didn't even have a clue.

Everyone sat in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion and was silent and silent.

Xiao Yue'er's big eyes rolled slightly, looking at Su Yunfei for a while, looking at Liu Rusheng for a while, seeing that the adults didn't speak, she also sat obediently, very bored.

Just when everyone was worried, the previous Great Xia royal family worshipper came to the City Lord's Mansion again and told Su Yunfei something, which instantly made his brows stretch.

Thirteen years ago, when the great plague that affected half of the Xia Kingdom, there were two officials who dealt with the plague who did not die and were still alive, one in Luoxian City, Beihu County, and the other in Fengxian City, Nanhu County.

Su Yunfei was overjoyed to reward the royal family with 10,000 amethyst stones, and then divided into two ways with Liu Rusheng, he took Xiao Yue'er to Luoxian City, and Liu Rusheng and Cai'er went to Nanhu County.

Luoxian City is a famous city, because the remains of a great monk of the Immortal Mirror are buried here, and Luoxian City is also a famous hometown of longevity in the Xia Kingdom, and mortals who are over 100 years old abound.

Because the immortal mirror relics contain a powerful Taoist rhyme, it can be auspicious and avoid evil, get rid of evil spirits, and also make the wind and rain in this place smooth.

It took more than four hours for Su Yunfei and Xiao Yue'er to come to the gate of a two-entry courtyard in Luoxian City.

"Is Mr. Zhang at home?"

The surviving official of Luoxian City was surnamed Zhang, and soon heard Master Zhang's response,

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Su Yunfei saw that Master Zhang was in good spirits, his body was very tough, and he was kind like a kind old man.

"Young man, little girl, do you have anything to do with me? Let's go into the yard and talk, I just bought a melon this morning, let's talk while we eat."

Master Zhang enthusiastically led Su Yunfei and Xiao Yue'er into the courtyard, then cut the watermelon soaked in the water tank and handed it to Su Yunfei and Xiao Yue'er.

Su Yunfei could see that Master Zhang should not have his children around, he was very lonely and lonely, and he usually didn't even have anyone to talk to, so he saw someone visiting

Now it is extremely enthusiastic.

Su Yunfei and Xiao Yue'er were not polite, picked up the watermelon and began to nibble, enjoying the rare leisure time in the past few days.

Master Zhang watched the two little babies eat very happily and smiled kindly,

"My son is now a county magistrate in a county under the jurisdiction of the capital, and he is also a Beijing official."

"My daughter is married to a rich merchant, and my rich merchant's son-in-law is very good to my daughter, and he has not married a concubine."

"Oh yes, my daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy to our old Zhang family last year."

「...」

Master Zhang was very talkative, and he talked a lot, but he didn't care about eating melons, Su Yunfei and Xiao Yue'er were very sensible and didn't interject, and they listened carefully.

It was almost time before Master Zhang asked Su Yunfei what he was looking for.

"What are you two looking for from me?"

"Master Zhang, were you an official in Nanli City thirteen years ago?"

"That's right, I've been the lord of the City Lord's Mansion in Nanli City for seven years."

"You were responsible for the plague thirteen years ago, were you there when the bodies were cremated?"

Hearing the plague thirteen years ago, Master Zhang's face showed grief, his eyes became dim, and the person fell silent, his eyes moistened, and after a long time, he sighed and said:

"Alas~ The plague killed a lot of people back then, most of them were young people, hundreds of thousands of people, alas! I was in charge of the plague from beginning to end, and on the day of cremation, hundreds of thousands of corpses were piled up into a mountain, and it took seven days and seven nights to burn before it ended, and now I can't help but cry when I think of that scene, all of them are young people!"

"Are you sure those bodies are burned to ashes?"

"I'm pretty sure!"

Hearing that Master Zhang was so determined, Su Yunfei was even more sure that this matter was definitely a shocking conspiracy, because there were no ashes at the cremation site at all.

Immediately, Su Yunfei continued to ask:

"Master Zhang, after the plague ended, did you feel unwell or something, many officials who participated in the treatment of the plague died within three years, you..."

"Alas~ A month after the end of the plague, I felt very tired, my body was not as good as a day, I thought it might be because of the plague to be tired, after all, the plague lasted for more than half a year, so I resigned and returned to my hometown, it is strange to say, after returning to Luoxian City, the fatigue is gone, eat Ma Ma fragrant, and the body is great. But those who died are said to have passed peacefully."

Su Yunfei felt a pang in his heart, those officials were definitely assassinated by the mastermind behind the scenes with ulterior means, because there was a reason for the immortal relics in Luoxian City, so Master Zhang would quickly recover.

Finally, Su Yunfei asked:

"Didn't the Imperial Court find anything unusual?"

Master Zhang recalled for a moment and said:

"At first, no one noticed the abnormality, it was too hard to deal with the plague, and it was understandable that it would become a disease after hard work, but Lord Li Kangda, who was still the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion at the time, noticed the abnormality, but after checking it for a long time, there was no result."

Su Yunfei frowned, and decided to go to Li Kangda to ask, Li Kangda was delicate and determined the case like a god, he must have a clue.
