Chapter Seventy-Five: The Huang Family's Civil Strife
Su Ling'er was sent back to the Su family to recuperate, and the sloppy Taoist priest took the children of the Su family to start treating the epidemic patients.
Although the sloppy Taoist priest has the belief of purifying all sentient beings, his strength does not allow it.
At present, nearly 10,000 people in Liyang County are infected with the epidemic, and the weaker the ordinary people, the faster the onset of the disease.
Many die before they can be treated.
The corpses that died of the epidemic will decompose quickly, and the pus mixed with blood will flow, and the stench can be smelled within a radius of hundreds of meters.
If these corpses are allowed to accumulate in large quantities, the Gu worms will grow rapidly, so once the corpses are found, they will be burned to ashes as soon as possible.
"No, even if we continue to burn like this, we won't be able to get rid of so many corpses."
The sloppy Taoist priest was sweating profusely.
Throughout the morning, they burned nearly 100 corpses.
On both sides of the river are piles of charred ashes.
If it was in the past, the relatives of these ashes would have come a long time ago, but now no one dares to approach these ashes at all.
Despite the sloppy Taoist priest's repeated assurances, there is absolutely no possibility of the ashes being transmitted to the epidemic.
But who is willing to gamble with their lives, losing the bet is a dead end.
"If it's dusk, the ashes are still unclaimed, so drag them out and bury them."
The sloppy Taoist priest sighed.
When people are dead, they naturally have to be buried in the earth.
Liyang County suffered from the epidemic, and Wugong County next door and Jianshui County were not much better.
In the past two days, there was a sudden and inexplicable death in the Huang family in Wugong County.
At first, he thought it was an assassination, and the county magistrate sent someone to investigate the matter.
But as a result, nothing was found after checking and checking, and it was not until this afternoon that the real culprit behind the scenes was found, and it turned out to be Keqing hired by the Huang family.
Rumble!
The gate of the Huang family exploded, and the blood-stained Keqing flew upside down and fell to the ground like a broken kite.
His chest was already sunken, his seven orifices were constantly spurting blood, and the sparkle in his eyes was gradually dissipating.
"In vain, my Huang family is so good to you, you actually secretly poisoned and murdered my Huang family's children, ink cartridges, you are so bold!"
Huang Baishou's face was gloomy as ink, and a group of Huang family disciples behind him rushed out angrily.
"Ahem."
The cartridge struggled to support his body, pointing at Huang Baishou and scolding angrily.
"Huang Baishou, am I vicious?"
"How did your Huang family get started back then, haven't you forgotten?"
As soon as these words came out, Huang Baishou's face suddenly changed.
The movement at the door of Huang's house attracted the attention of many people, and Huang Baishou wanted to clear the scene, but Wutong had already stood one step ahead, and the children of the Huang family were blocked aside.
"This county order is a little curious, how did the Huang family get started, your ink cartridge is a sinful, and you have poisoned many children of the Huang family."
"This account, this official will definitely play the Ming court and sentence you to death, come on, press him down for me!"
Seeing that the ink cartridge was about to be suppressed, Huang Baishou immediately stepped forward to stop it.
"Wuxian Ling, this is my Huang family's family matter, I'm afraid I don't need you to take care of it, right?"
If the ink cartridge is really taken down by Wu Tong, all the dirty things he has done for the Huang family over the years, both openly and secretly, will be shaken out.
At that time, Wutong will definitely use this as an excuse to embarrass the Huang family, and in this knotted eye, the Huang family does not want to make extraneous branches.
"Who said that, his cartridge is a citizen of the Great Yan Dynasty, and I am the county commander of Wugong County of the Great Yan Dynasty, according to the laws of the Great Yan Dynasty, I can naturally take care of him!"
Wu Tong's eyes froze, and the more Huang Baishou blocked him, the more likely it was that there was a secret hidden on the cartridge.
This is a rare opportunity, how could he let go of the opportunity to hit the Huang family.
"Wu County Order, this is going to fight against my Huang family to the end?!"
Seeing that the soft one was not good, Huang Baishou came directly to the hard one, and immediately opened his mouth to threaten.
As soon as these words came out, Wu Tong's face instantly became gloomy.
"Huang Baishou, you are so bold, you dare to threaten this official!!"
With Wutong's roar, all the people around him drew their swords and pointed directly at Huang Baishou.
The onlookers slowly stepped back.
Although the Huang family is strong, they should not be so reckless.
If you are so stubborn, not only will you not get any benefits, but you may also be punished by the county guard.
You must know that the county guard of Yizhou next door has already given a death order.
Anyone who commits adultery and criminals will be killed once he is caught.
From the promulgation of the order to today, in just three days, nearly 1,000 heads have been cut off, all of which he personally did.
A celestial realm is angry, but it is not a joke.
What's more, he is still a county guard who holds the power of life and death in a state.
Huang Baishou felt very aggrieved.
He kept roaring in his heart, hoping that the old ancestor would appear and make a move, cutting off the martial arts in front of him.
If this guy didn't rely on his mother's power, how could he sit firmly in the position of the county magistrate of Wugong County, and now he was scolding him Huang Baishou in person.
Seeing that Huang Baishou was furious, Wu Tong didn't dare to threaten too much.
After all, the ancestor of the Huang family, Xuancheng, is a righteous heavenly realm.
If you annoy him and slap him down, you will be gone, and even if the forces behind his wife are traced down, there will be no proof of it.
Besides, people die like lights going out, and if Wutong dies, there is little point in revenge.
Suddenly, Huang Baishou's voice came from Xuan Cheng's ears, and he nodded with a smile after listening.
Subsequently, Huang Baishou unexpectedly hugged his fist at Wutong.
"Wu County Order, Fang is Huang's is not, although this cartridge is my Huang family's guest, but after all, he is a citizen of the Great Yan Dynasty, and if he commits a crime, he will naturally be handed over to the imperial court for trial."
"But before leaving, I have a few words I want to say to the cartridge, and I hope the county magistrate will agree."
Huang Baishou's hand took retreat as advance, and directly stumped Wutong.
He has been an official for many years, and he is naturally familiar with all kinds of conspiracies and tricks, and he also understands what Huang Baishou means.
You can take someone, but I promise him that he won't be able to say anything useful.
Wu Tong subconsciously wanted to refuse, but a cold snort came from his ears.
"Ahem."
Wu Tong's figure trembled, and his face turned red before he could barely suppress the sweetness in his throat.
But even so, wisps of blood still oozed from the corners of his mouth.
"Okay, is the head of the Huang family so affectionate and righteous, then please, the county commander suddenly feels uncomfortable, and you will remember to bring people back later."
Wu Tong suppressed his anger and spoke, and quickly turned around and left.
Wu Tong opened his mouth, and the catchers who held the cartridge withdrew their hands one after another, and the cartridge was thrown to the ground again.
Huang Baishou walked to the ink cartridge with a smile and whispered: "Only the dead can keep secrets, but don't worry, you won't let you die so easily, your soul will gradually wither." ”
Huang Baishou patted the shoulder of the ink cartridge as he spoke, and the poisonous needle hidden between his fingers pierced into his body.
The poison needle is quenched with Soul Melting Scatter, which is a kind of poison that specializes in dissolving the soul.
This is Xuan's means to give Huang Baishou a trick that allows him to melt the soul of the cartridge.
In this way, even if Wu Tong grabbed the cartridge, it would be useless, and he couldn't ask anything at all.
