Chapter 365: Tricky, Tricky

"If I remember correctly, when my father and emperor entered Shangjing, he once asked people to send food and medicinal herbs, what about those grains and medicinal herbs?"

"This ...... We have not seen medicinal herbs, let alone food. ”

Li Zheng wants to cry without tears, although he is a small Li Zheng, he is not a serious official position.

Since the plague broke out in Pingyang Town, it was as if he was being pressed by a mountain on his shoulders.

How could it not be reported as soon as possible.

But after the report, they waited for four or five months, and they didn't wait for anyone from the government, let alone food and herbs.

Li Zheng was embarrassed: "There are a lot of people, but they are not here to save us, they are ...... They came to burn those who had the pestilence. ”

"He also said that this was an order from the imperial court, in order to prevent the plague from spreading to Shangjing."

"These words were all said by people from the government?" Baozhu asked.

Li Zheng hurriedly sat up straight: "This matter is true, we ...... We don't dare to hide anything. ”

Seeing that Baozhu was not very old, but the aura around him was strong, and Li was scared into a cold sweat.

Where is there still a little bit of concealment.

Baozhu thought for a while, and then asked about the situation in the entire Pingyang Town.

"You said that the plague was first discovered in Luoxia Village, but I heard from the villagers of Gushan Village yesterday that all the villagers in Luoxia Village were burned to death, but there is such a thing."

The people of an entire village, hundreds of lives, said that they would be burned to death.

Why are you so anxious?

Is there some secret in it?

Baozhu didn't believe it, infected with the plague, not only the people of Luoxia Village, why did he only burn the villagers of Luoxia Village, and not burn the people of other villages?

"Not really, the first thing I found out was Dahe Village."

Rizheng shook his head.

"As for why the government wants to burn Luoxia Village, I ...... I don't know. ”

Li Zheng wants to cry without tears, he is just a little Li Zheng.

"On that day, more than 1,000 people came to the government, all on horseback and carrying knives, and before I could find out the situation, I found that the entire villagers of Luoxia Village had been killed, and then the whole village was burned."

When I think of that day, the tragic scene is like purgatory on earth.

From afar, you can hear the miserable cries of the villagers of Luoxia Village.

"I, I saw it too, those people are wearing black clothes, and the knives in their hands are so long, they look scary."

Huang Daring walked in from outside and described to Baozhu the appearance of those people in the government.

This made Baozhu even more puzzled, after his description, the clothes worn by these people were definitely not from the government.

But where did the food and herbs that her father had sent to the court?

Tell Baozhu directly that Luoxia Village has an ulterior secret, and I'm afraid this county order also has an ulterior secret.

"Jin Zishi, you go and call a few people to come over, and come with me to Luoxia Village to have a look."

"I can't go, I can't go!"

A crazy old man suddenly jumped out of the mountain village and stopped the jewels.

"Second master!"

Huang Daring ran over and hugged the crazy second uncle: "Son-in-law, this is the second uncle of my family, since that day, he has become crazy, and every night he stands at the entrance of the village and looks at Luoxia Village, saying...... said that the ghosts of Luoxia Village were asking him for help. ”

"He also said that because we didn't save them, the dead villagers in Luoxia Village are cursing us, so that our whole village will be infected with the plague, and we will be burned to death by the government like them."

That's outrageous.

Jin Zishi walked out from outside, followed by dozens of selected people.

"Take him with you, and we'll go to Luoxia Village." Baozhu pointed to the crazy second master, and got on the horse without saying a word.

"Son-in-law, you can't take my second uncle, the second uncle is really crazy and doesn't know anything." Huang dared to catch up, but was stopped.

Li Zheng's face was full of doubts, what was Baozhu doing with the crazy second master in Luoxia Village.

The mountain village is separated from Luoxia Village, and there is only a chain bridge in the middle, which crosses both sides of the riverbank, and the river on both sides is turbulent, and I don't know where it flows.

"In front of the son-in-law is a chain bridge, and we can't ride over it, we can only walk there."

Jin Zishi dismounted, walked to the edge of the chain bridge, checked the iron rope, and came back to tell Baozhu.

The orb glanced at the other side of the river from afar, and felt that something was missing.

The group of people were riding horses, killing all the villagers on the other side of the river, how did they ride over?

"Find out if there are any other bridges nearby."

Baozhu glanced around, suspicious.

Jin Zishi nodded, and immediately asked people to search around, and soon everyone who searched got an answer: "Son-in-law, I searched all around and didn't find a bridge that could cross the river on horseback, only this iron chain bridge." ”

"Alright, I got it. Leave a few people here to keep watch, and the rest will cross the river with me. ”

Baozhu walked to the edge of the chain bridge and looked down at the rusty chain bridge, and his doubts increased.

Such a chain bridge can only withstand the weight of two adults at a time.

"No, there must be other roads here, you continue to ask people to continue looking for the upper and lower reaches of the river."

Baozhu doesn't believe it, this chain bridge is clearly passive.

Maybe when you go to the middle of the river, it will break, and then people will fall into the river with the bridge.

Jin Zishi could only continue to lead the people along the river, and continued to walk up, and finally found an arched bridge a mile away.

Just now, because the terrain on the mountain is steep and the trees are thick, and the bridge is covered with moss and some vines, you can't imagine that this is a stone bridge if you don't look carefully.

"The son-in-law has found it, and there is indeed a bridge ahead."

Even Li Zheng was surprised at this time, but he didn't expect that there was really a bridge.

He looked at the jewel in surprise, wondering how the princess knew that there was a bridge ahead.

"Leave a few people to guard the bridge, and the rest will go to Luoxia Village with me."

Just in case, Baozhu asked people to stay on both sides of the bridge, and he took a dozen people and rode to Luoxia Village.

After the entire Luoxia Village was burned by the fire, the surrounding plants and houses turned into black charcoal, and it seems that this fire was not ordinary.

In Luoxia Village, there is not even a single figure to be seen, and the silence is terrible.

When I walked into the village, the houses were burned down, and I couldn't see the original appearance at all.

Baozhu took people and walked around the village, but found nothing suspicious.

I can only take people back to the entrance of the village, looking at the big clock hanging at the entrance of the village, and there is a well on the side.

Baozhu walked to the well and looked down, but didn't notice anything unusual: "You all search everywhere to see if there is anything suspicious, including any suspicious people." ”

Time passed little by little, and Baozhu stood at the entrance of the village, as it got dark.

The second uncle gradually became crazy: "Ghost, ghost." Listen, they are all weeping and begging for mercy. ”
