In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Xuanyi had already gotten up before dawn, and got up gently, for fear of waking Du Xinyu up, although this aunt and grandmother were precocious than ordinary girls, but after all, she was still young, and she was unwilling to leave herself, which made Zhao Xuanyi very moved, and at the same time very entangled!

After walking out of the room, I saw that Shen Wei and Jinglan were already standing in the courtyard, and the purple kite took a black leather coat from the side and put it on Zhao Xuanyi, "Uncle, be careful in everything!" ”

Zhao Xuanyi patted the purple kite's hand lightly, "Don't worry, I'll come back when I find Sun Yan and Wang Heming!" ”

Although Zhao Xuanyi's words were very light, everyone knew in their hearts that this matter was not simple, and it was weird everywhere, but as long as everyone understood, no one could rest assured!

Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei rode their horses, left the Marquis' Mansion in the night, and walked all the way out of the capital, the spring morning was still as cold as ever, and every breath turned into white smoke.

There is still snow hanging on the big trees on both sides of the pipe, although the beautiful snow hanging is beautiful, but it also makes people feel the chill of the cold winter, the horse's hooves squeak on the snow, this is a unique music in winter, two people in a white world gradually drifting apart!

The two of them were not too anxious along the way, after all, the road was too far! Four days later, the two came to the outside of Luohua City again, only to see that outside Luohua City, there were still thousands of officers and soldiers guarding the town, and most of them had white veils on their faces, as if they were afraid of infection!

When the soldier saw two men coming, he hurriedly walked over, "Who are you?" What's the matter here? ”

Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei also wore white veils, for fear that someone would recognize them! Turning over and dismounting, Zhao Xuanyi very politely took out the things that Zhu Yuejun had prepared for himself!

The soldier took it and saw that it was a medical hall document sent by the imperial court, and immediately paid attention to it, "It turned out to be Imperial Doctor Zhao sent by the imperial court?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! Call me Zhao Langzhong! Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.

"That's right, I'll take you to inform our chief, and then we'll do the next thing!"

"There is labor!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile, and then gave Shen Wei a look, the two led the horses, followed the soldier through layers of obstacles, and came to a military tent outside Luohua City, Zhao Xuanyi thought that he would meet Fang Dazhi who met last time, but looked left and right, didn't see it?

After walking into the military tent, I saw a big-bellied, about forty years old man sitting in the military tent, and when he saw Zhao Xuanyi, his eyes were full of disdain, "You are the medical officer sent by the imperial court?" ”

Zhao Xuanyi took a look at it, and said in his heart, who is this guy? There are only 1,000 households, and they actually put up such a big shelf, if they are in the capital, they won't even know your mother!

"Who is this?" Zhao Xuanyi asked deliberately.

The soldiers on the side hurriedly said, "This is our thousand households, Wang Li, Wang Qianhu!" ”

"Oh, Wang Qianhu, it's down there! I heard that there was a plague outbreak here in Henan, and the emperor was very worried, so he sent me to check, and then reported the matter to the imperial court, and then saw whether the emperor sent someone to send medicinal materials or silver taels! It's all the emperor's business! Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.

Wang Li looked at Zhao Xuanyi, his eyes full of impatience, "You don't have to go in!" ”

"Huh?" didn't say a word, Zhao Xuanyi made a mess on the spot, "Lord Qianhu, I am a medical officer sent by the imperial court, I won't go in...... Not suitable, right? ”

Wang Li smiled coldly: "I said, why do you know so much?" This is an important area for the plague to break out, have you survived enough? ”

When Zhao Xuanyi heard this Wang Li's words, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, and the medical officers of the imperial court dared to stop him? There must be something in this, "Wang Qianhu, please respect my profession, the heart of the doctor's parents, don't say that there is a plague in it, it is poison, I should go in, if I can't save the people from fire and water, what is the use of our group of doctors?" ”

Wang Liyi laughed when he heard it, "Hey? It's the first time I've seen such an unenlightened person, and it's not impossible for you to insist on going in, but I can tell you in advance that it's easy to get in, and it's hard to get out alive! ”

"Wang Qianhu rest assured, even if I can't cure this plague and die inside, I have no complaints!" Zhao Xuanyi's face was full of seriousness!

"Done! Since you want to go in so much, go for it! Take them in! Wang Li pointed to the soldiers on the side and said.

"Yes! Zhao Langzhong, please come with me! After the soldier finished speaking, he walked out of the military tent with Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei.

Zhao Xuanyi looked at this Wang Li, remembered his appearance, and asked him to settle accounts in the future, what is it, "Hey, brother, in this Henan garrison, I have a distant brother named Fang Dazhi, I don't know if I am here?" ”

"Who? Fang Dazhi? The soldier asked, surprised.

"Yes, it's him!" Zhao Xuanyi nodded and said.

After the soldier heard this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly looked left and right, and then looked at Zhao Xuanyi with a cautious expression, "Zhao Langzhong, I advise you not to mention this name in the future!" ”

"Why is that?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.

"You don't know yet, do you? Fang Dazhi is dead! ”

"Dead?" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Shen Wei, and both of them were very surprised in their eyes, "Could it be that he has attracted the plague?" ”

"This ......? I won't be able to say the specifics! The soldier seemed to be terrified of this and kept silent!

When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he hurriedly gave Shen Wei a look, Shen Wei walked over, holding a piece of broken silver in his hand, and stuffed it directly into the soldier's hand, "Brother, my family Langzhong is not very familiar with this distant brother, but since he knows it, he wants to see it, but how can he die in a good manner?" When we came two days ago, his mother asked us to come here to see him. Can you tell us about it? Let's go back and talk to his mother about what's going on. ”

When the soldier saw that there was silver, he hurriedly put it away: "I will tell you about it!" Don't go out and talk nonsense! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhao Xuanyi nodded hurriedly!

"About ...... Ten days ago, a big official came from the capital. We don't know who it is! The result was that this Fang Dazhi stepped forward to receive him, but he didn't know what this Fang Dazhi said to this person, and he was killed that night! Externally, he died because of the plague! The soldier whispered.

When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he was angry, who is this for? Me? Kill me if you receive me? This group of people is so lawless! When Shen Wei on the side heard this, he hurriedly patted Zhao Xuanyi's shoulder, "Young master, it may be that Fang Dazhi has provoked some big shot, let's talk lightly, don't mix, let's go into Luohua City and see a patient!" ”

"Yes, see a doctor, see a doctor!" Zhao Xuanyi forcibly suppressed his anger, and now anyone with a discerning eye can see what is going on, there must be something else hidden here, and the person who has been in contact with him is killed directly? It's simply unbearable! Wang Li, right? You're waiting for me!

Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei followed the soldiers to the city gate, only to see the soldiers and the soldiers guarding the gate said hello, the gate slowly opened, and the soldiers looked at Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei, "The two, I won't go in, you go in!" ”

"Thank you!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he and Shen Wei walked in with the medicine box prepared in advance, just walked into Luohua City, Zhao Xuanyi looked left and right, and saw that the city was completely different from the outside, the street was very desolate, not a single figure could be seen, not even the officers and soldiers patrolling!

Something is wrong! It's illogical! If it was a plague outbreak, the city gates would be overcrowded by now! They must have cried and shouted to the soldiers for Chinese medicine and life-saving items, but how could the streets be deserted?

Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei glanced at each other, the two of them continued to walk inside, walked half the street, and saw people at the door of a family, Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei walked over, only to see a mother sitting at the door with a five or six-year-old child in her arms, the two of them were skinny, their faces were dark, and they looked like people doing farm work!

But the strange thing is that there are no poisonous sores or rotten places on the faces of these two people, looking at this body, it seems that there is no disease? But it's true that this mother and son look hungry!

"Sister, let me ask you, isn't there a plague in your city? Why are you sitting here? What about the others? Zhao Xuanyi asked.

"What? Pestilence? This Falling Flower City just had a natural disaster last year, and there are not a few people left, where did the plague come from? The woman said weakly.

When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, his eyes widened instantly, although he had already guessed it, but when he heard it with his own ears, he was still very shocked, thousands of officers and soldiers outside were guarding, and the matter of the plague had spread to the capital, but there was no plague here at all?

"Brother Shen, let's go!" Zhao Xuanyi said.

"Yes!"

"Let's go? Where to go? Now the falling float is a huge cage, and you can't get in and out! The woman said with a look of lovelessness.

Zhao Xuanyi then remembered that Wang Li's words just now could come in alive, but it was unknown whether he could get out alive! Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly opened the medicine box, took out two baked cakes from it, and stuffed them directly into the woman's hands!

As soon as the woman saw the food, she instantly came to her senses, and immediately put the two baked cakes in the child's hands, "Baby, eat quickly, there is something to eat!" The woman said happily.

"Baked cakes?" The child couldn't seem to believe the food he saw, and hurriedly opened his mouth and bit down!

The woman looked at Zhao Xuanyi and nodded with a smile, "Thank you so much, thank you so much, thank you!" ”

"Eldest sister, you don't have to be polite, can you tell me, since there is no plague in your Falling Flower City, why are they besieging you?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.

"How do we know? About half a month ago, the north and south gates were suddenly blocked, saying that there was a major murderer in the city, and he must be found, and then the city was closed and no food was given, so that these people who had just passed the year of the catastrophe were starved to death again, and now there are not many people alive in the city, and there is nothing else to eat every day except well water! The woman said, tears falling at the same time!

When Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei heard it, although they were a little chaotic, they seemed to be able to guess something! "Eldest sister, I have a friend who came here a month ago and hasn't left, do you know where it is?"

"Hey, I don't know, this group of officers and soldiers come to look for it once a day in the morning and once in the evening, but they have been looking for it for almost a month, and they haven't found it, so this city gate has never been opened!"

When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he seemed to have a clue in his heart, was it Wang Heming who this group of officers and soldiers wanted to arrest? And the Falling Flower City is so big, they can't find it at all, so they use the excuse of the plague to seal the city, and even if they can't find them, they will starve to death!

But this is just a hypothesis, what did Wang Heming do? How can they be hunted down? And who assigned the soldiers outside? All of this made Zhao Xuanyi have no clue!

Zhao Xuanyi slowly stood up, looking at the empty Falling Flower City, his heart was very entangled, and he didn't know where to start! I'm afraid it's impossible to get out now, that Wang Li is obviously under order, and his best result is to starve to death here!

Since he can't get out for the time being, Zhao Xuanyi has to find Wang Heming and Sun Yan first, otherwise he will be in vain! Zhao Xuanyi looked at Shen Wei, "Let's look for Wang Heming and Sun Yan in the city first, and then figure out a way after the rest!" ”

"Yes!" Shen Wei doesn't worry about these at all, the key is to find someone first! Nothing else matters!

After the two of them said goodbye to the woman, they began to look for it in this strange city, but this city was also too big, and the two of them walked for a short day, and it seemed that they had found the tip of the iceberg!

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Zhao Xuanyi waved his hand, "Don't look for it, let's talk about it tomorrow, I'm tired!" Zhao Xuanyi sat on the ground, usually riding a horse, but now relying on these legs, walking for a day made Zhao Xuanyi miserable!

"Then Cheng, let's look for it tomorrow! Let's find a place to rest first! Shen Wei said.
