"Where did we find out?" At noon, Lin Xi took more than a dozen people and was enjoying the shade under an old tree.

"There are a total of ninety-six squares in the capital, and we have only checked more than half of them."

Tang Yao lay in his sister's arms and complained: "I've been checking all morning, not to mention the Han people surnamed Qin, there are few people with the surname Qin......"

"It's okay, let's write down everyone surnamed Qin, even if we can't find it today, once we have clues in the future, we don't need to check it again."

Tang Xiao looked at everyone and asked Lin Xi: "Lin Xi, are you hungry, at noon, everyone is very tired, why don't you eat first?" ”

Tang Yao sat up, saw that Lin Xi didn't react, and shouted a few more times: "Lin Xi!" Lin Xi! Sister, why did Lin Xi lie there and not react? ”

Tang Xiao also sat up and looked at Lin Xi suspiciously when he heard this, and when he saw that Lin Xi was really lying there motionless, he suddenly became vigilant.

"Sister, something may have happened, be careful, go over and take a look."

Tang Xiao walked over cautiously, swallowed his saliva nervously, and gently pressed it on Lin Xi's chest, stunned for a while, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, I'm alive and well, I'm asleep."

He ...... Why are you asleep here? Lin Xi, Lin Xi! ”

"Huh? Ah, what's wrong? Tang Yao shook Lin Xi, and Lin Xi woke up from his sleep.

"Lin Xi, didn't you sleep well, I see that you are not in good spirits all morning."

"I ...... I didn't sleep last night. ”

Tang Yao was very strange and asked, "Why don't you sleep?" ”

"I was in the courtyard last night and I seemed to hear some strange noise...... Not! Before Tang Xiao finished speaking, he was covered by Lin Xi, who was in a hurry.

"Sister, what did you say? How I didn't hear it. ”

"You slept early at night and died, how can you hear it."

"It's nothing, don't listen to your sister's nonsense, there was no sound last night, I didn't hear it."

Tang Xiao smiled knowingly, "I haven't slept all night, you're in good health." ”

"Thank you for the compliment......" Lin Xi replied with a smile, and then he closed his eyes and recuperated again.

"What about your ladies? They didn't sleep either? ”

"It's okay, they are more energetic than me, I asked a few of them to look at the household registration records of the Assassin's Mansion."

"You have to be careful, but don't get tired, ah."

"I won't need you to remind you of this! I have a sense of proportion, and I can't die of exhaustion. ”

"Sister, what do you two say? What is tired and not tired? ”

"Nothing, let him pay attention to his body. Don't ask more, sister. ”

Lin Xi shook his head helplessly, he also blamed himself for being a little loud yesterday.

Tang Xiao remembered what she had just said, patted Lin Xi and asked again, "Hey, don't you eat?" Everyone has been running all morning, and they are all hungry and tired, so why don't we go get something to eat first. ”

Lin Xi's eyes rolled around twice and thought for a moment: "It's okay, call everyone back, let's find a nearby restaurant to eat." ”

Na Cheng thought, when eating, he actually met a visit from an uninvited guest.

Lin Xi was eating, and suddenly a sword slapped on the table, Lin Xi and the Tang family sisters sitting opposite looked up together, and it turned out to be an extremely familiar face.

"Yuan Kui?!" Lin Xi was a little surprised, but Tang Xiao, who was sitting opposite, was a little nervous, and subconsciously looked at Lin Xi.

"There's still a wanted warrant for you at the gate of the city, I really didn't expect you to dare to come in."

"It's over."

"How did you get in? The sentry at the city gate didn't find you? ”

"It's a little easier."

"Well, what's the matter with me?"

"I heard you're looking for a Han man surnamed Qin?"

Lin Xi felt a little strange, "Your news is very well-informed, not bad." ”

"I heard from the merchant who left the city today."

"That'...... Did you come to me to bring me good news or bad news? ”

"Good news for you. Remember that girl? ”

"Remember, it's clear."

"Her name is Qin Ruoyan and she is from Shandong."

Lin Xi was surprised, glanced at Tang Xiao and Tang Yao, and asked Yuan Kui: "Why are you telling me this?" ”

"I'm sure you won't hurt her."

"No, there must be another reason." Yuan Kui's eyes wandered, his eyes wandered, obviously he had something to hide and his spirit was not very good.

Yuan Kui sighed and slowly said the reason: "You are from the Song Dynasty, you should know that the great plague in Shandong five years ago." ”

"Remember, thousands of people died."

As if he had made a big decision, Yuan Kui adjusted his breathing and said, "I'm still ...... Let's start with the plague of that year. ”

In Yuan Kui's mouth, Shandong five years ago ......

At this time, Yuan Kui was not the king of Yong, he fled to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty after the death of his father Yixin, but when he crossed the border, he was caught by the boss's men, and since then he has been doing things for the boss.

"What the hell does the Boss want us to do here?" At this time, Yuan Kui came to Shandong, for Yuan Kui, the boss is a very strange person, although Yuan Kui has experienced life and death at that time, he still can't see through what the boss did.

"What the boss wants us to do, just do it, don't have so many problems." This person is one of the boss's subordinates, and he only has a few sides to Yuan Kui, and he doesn't remember his name for a long time.

"Okay, so what are we going to do?"

"Plant flowers."

"Planting flowers? Did I hear me right? ”

The man took the sack in Yuan Kui's hand and said, "You heard it right, this sack is full of flower seeds. This is the iron begonia flower that the boss bought from the Westerners, and the south is humid and rainy, so it can't be planted at all, so we let us take it to Shandong. The valley east of Tanting Town is warm and dry, and it is a good place to plant this flower. ”

"But it takes time and effort to plant, but what is the role of this flower?"

I saw the corners of his mouth rise slightly, and he smiled weirdly: "If it's planted, you'll know." ”

"So what the hell does this flower do?" In the restaurant, Lin Xi asked Yuan Kui, who had just finished speaking.

"I don't remember the man's name, but I still remember his laughter, and now I think about it that makes my hair stand on end...... I didn't think I was doing evil, and I didn't know what the flower was for, but ......"

Just six months later, the valley of Tanting Town was full of begonias.

"I inquired at the bottom of the mountain that a lot of people have died in this neighborhood recently, and the people suspect that it is the plague, so it should be the problem of this flower."

"Hmph, you're not stupid, do you smell this flower?"

"Yes, I smell it."

"The begonia flower is highly poisonous, its fragrance can attract mosquitoes to suck, we will drive a large number of mosquitoes, mosquitoes suck the flower juice, it will also be highly toxic, and then put it in the nearby villages and towns, people bitten by mosquitoes will be poisoned and die, and the death is similar to the plague."

"Oh? But what can we do to drive them out? Yuan Kui didn't understand.

"Just in case. After the begonia flowers bloom, there is a strange fragrance, once the valley of the begonia is found, it will definitely arouse suspicion, although the boss has said hello to the nearby county order, but after all, it is necessary to ensure absolute safety. ”

"So what does the boss need?"

"The petals of the iron begonia."

"Aren't the petals poisonous? What's the use of asking for that. ”

"Okay, the rest is none of our business, just do your job."

"Yes."
