The torrential rain has been pouring down for a long time, and there is still no sign of stopping. On the muddy loess road, a horse-drawn carriage is marching with difficulty. The two white horses pulling the cart have turned into yellow horses.

"This thief is leaking. Hu Wei scolded, turned around and asked Hua Lao with concern: "Hua Lao, you don't have anything, right?" ”

Hua Lao waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." This little bump, my old bones can still stand it. ”

"Hua Lao, this road is really not easy to walk, why don't we rest for a while and wait for the rain to stop before walking. ”

"No, no, if you get to the epidemic area one day earlier, you can understand the situation one day earlier, you don't have to worry about me, just hurry, time is life." ”

"Alright then, sit down. Hu Wei shook his head helplessly, when he went out this morning, he already felt that this day was not right, but he told Hua Lao that he did not agree to rest.

This old man is really stubborn sometimes.

Hu Wei sighed secretly in his heart, and his respect for Hua Lao was also a little more. Hua Lao, as the successor of Yao Wanglu, has already been famous all over the world, and this time he went to Chihe for the sake of the people there.

Coming out of the waves, today is the fifth day. This time, Hu Wei didn't bring anyone with him, Hua Lao brought a disciple, and there were only three people in the group. The disciple brought by Hua Lao was actually Hua Da, which Hu Wei did not expect.

At this time, Hua Da was driving outside, he didn't know Hu You's identity yet, and he was also very strange to Hua Lao Hui to bring Hu Wei. However, he was very happy to be able to go on the road with Hu Wei, and he took care of Hu Wei very much along the way. Busy and busy, hard-working.

It was a huge thunderbolt, and the whole carriage trembled, as if it would fall apart at any moment. Driving on such a rainy day is not a wise decision. However, Hua Lao insisted so much, Hu Wei followed him. When leading troops to fight, no matter how difficult the environment is, he has seen a lot of worries, which is a normal thing for him.

It was raining and getting dark quickly, but fortunately, the carriage had already entered a small town. This is Hu Wei secretly asked Huada to change the way, if it is according to the original plan, the current road is less than halfway. With such heavy rain, the taste of spending the night in the wilderness is not pleasant.

After entering the inn and settling Hua Lao, Hu Wei and Hua arrived in the lobby. Lao Hua was very tired, so he ate some casually and fell asleep. They hadn't eaten anything.

"It's cold, are you okay? Hu Wei said with concern. Today, all day long, Huada was driving, although he was wearing a coat, Huada's whole body was still soaked.

"It's nothing, I used to be in the mud for three days in the war, and I didn't have any. Huada said with a grin.

As soon as Hu Wei heard this, he knew that there was an element of bragging, no matter what kind of battle, there was no one who lay in the mud for three days, and it was possible to do it in a day and a half, and that was when he was reconnoitring, and he had to observe the enemy's situation motionlessly.

After a few days of getting along, Hu Wei also had a preliminary understanding of Huada. This Huada person is not bad, and his skills are not bad

, it's just a little bit not very good, I like to brag. However, no one is perfect, and bragging is not a big problem. Hu Wei didn't talk about him either.

"I want a hot pot to warm up. Hu Yuti said.

Huada waved his hand and said: "If you want cold wine, there is no point in scalding wine, it is so light that it is deathly." ”

"Whatever you want. Hu Wei didn't say much. The method of scalding wine in this area is very special, directly use the pot to cook the wine, wait for the wine to reach a certain temperature, and ignite it with fire, after the fire is extinguished, the hot wine will become.

This thing looks quite interesting, but Hu Wei doesn't like to drink it, for the same reason as Huada said, it's too light. The fire had already burned the alcohol in the wine, and it really didn't taste good when I drank it.

The wine and food were served, and the two chatted while eating. On the first day Hua Da joined in, Hu Wei already knew that he was a distant relative of Hua Lao. Although it is said to be a distant relative, Huada has a very good relationship with Hua Lao, and it is said that when he was a child, he lived in Hua Lao's house for several years.

"How's that guy you like? Chatting and chatting, the topic naturally turned to women, of course Hu Wei would not tell Huada about the women around him, other women, so he can talk about it.

"Well, not very well. This time I went to Chihe, back and forth for a few months, I couldn't watch it around, and I had to let my family run away. Huada said dejectedly.

Hu Yu smiled and said: "You, whether you are a little confident in yourself, it is yours sooner or later, you don't need to worry, and no one can grab it." ”,

Before leaving, Hu Wei sent someone to inquire. The girl that Huada likes is called Fang Fang, and she is a partial general of the former Red Fen Legion. The girl has a few skills, this time Chihe and his party, Huada is good if he is a good person. He didn't mind coming forward in person to help Huada. However, he will not sue Sù Huada about this for the time being. He is not a person who comes forward to talk about matchmaking, whether Huada can hold the beauty or not, it will depend on his own appearance.

As if he wanted to prove Hu Wei's words, this day really seemed to be leaked, and it didn't stop for a whole night. Hua Lao still wanted to brave the rain to hurry, but this time Hu Wei didn't listen to him, and half-forcibly persuaded him to go back to the room to rest.

After a day and a night of heavy rain, a lot of soil and rocks must have been loosened, and Hu Wei didn't want to experience another natural disaster.

The next night, the night finally stopped. On the third day, before dawn, Hua Lao called Hu Wei and Hua Da, and the old man was so anxious that he couldn't wait any longer.

Fifteen days later, the three of them finally arrived at the border city of the Chihe Empire. However, the shape is not optimistic, and Chihe actually transferred heavy troops to guard here. The people of Chihe are not allowed to go out, and people from other countries are not allowed to travel.

"If we can't get over, what should we do? Why don't we go over the mountain? Hua Dati yì said.

Hu Wei glanced at him, rolled his eyes, and acted as if he hadn't heard.

Huada smiled embarrassedly, he also knew that this was absolutely not feasible. If it's just him and Hu Wei, then it's easy to do, this is with a Hua Lao who is in his seventies, isn't it a joke to go over the mountain.

"I'll figure it out, you first

Take a break. Hu Wei observed from a distance for a while and got out of the car. The blockade of the Chihe Empire is not absolute, and he saw just now that a carriage came out. Obviously, it was the high-level family of the Chihe Empire. Since they can get out, they won't have a problem getting in.

Without revealing your identity, there is actually only one way to get through, and that is gold coins. Money is a good thing that can communicate with the mind, as long as you can afford it, most of the problems are not a problem.

Thinking that he came to Chihe thousands of miles to help them solve their predicament, not only did he not gain a penny, but he had to pay for the road, and Hu Wei couldn't help but feel angry. However, now is not the time to be angry, it can be seen from the grim expressions on the soldiers' faces that the epidemic situation in the Chihe Empire has reached a very strict point, and if it is not controlled, I am afraid that the entire Tianfeng Continent will be finished.

"Let's go, let's go. About an hour, Hu Wei returned to the car, patted Huada, and told him to continue on his way.

"Okay?" Hua Da looked at Hu Wei in surprise, looking disbelieving.

"Let's go. Hu Wei sat in the car and didn't talk much.

Da drove to the border, feeling quite apprehensive. But soon he was amazed to find that the soldiers, as if they could not see them, ignored Ben and let the carriage pass without questioning.

"Weird, what's going on, how did you do that?" said Wada, curious.

"It's just money. Hu Wei snorted.

"Just give money, the cars before just now, I also wanted to go over, but they didn't succeed. ”

"That's because they don't give enough money. After Hu Wei finished speaking, he didn't say anything, thinking of the 'blood' just now, and now he was still in pain. Sooner or later, these accounts will have to be calculated from Zult.

The city of Lila is fine, although everyone's expressions are very nervous, but for the time being, the legendary plague has not been discovered, and when he enters the Landong area, Hu Wei's head is big. You can see people with dishes everywhere.

"This is it, I'll go down and have a look. Hua Lao saw at a glance that there was something wrong with those people, and he pulled the carriage and wanted to go down.

Hu Wei quickly grabbed him and said, "Hua Lao, don't be in a hurry at this time, find a place to live first, make the preparations, and then check slowly." ”

After finding an inn to live in and making all the preparations, Hu Wei asked Huada to find a person who was already in a mild condition.

"Remember, you must not tell anyone, you can be cured here, otherwise you have to blow up the nest. Hu Wei repeatedly confessed to Huada.

"I've saved it. Huada's face was also very solemn, before he came here, he didn't know that the development of the epidemic had reached a terrifying level. This really let those who already feel that there is no hope know that this side can save their lives, and I am afraid that this small inn will be demolished immediately.

Huada handled things very neatly, and it only took more than ten minutes to find a middle-aged man in his thirties. The man was in the prime of life, and his body was very strong, but his eyes were not bright, and his face was a little blue. ,

"Is there really money to take?" said the middle-aged man as soon as he entered the door

In a word, the question is money.

Hu Wei glanced at Huada, and said in his heart that this kid can learn very quickly. They already know how to use money to open the way. But it seems that this little hand has not given anyone money yet, alas, and it has to bleed again.

"Don't worry, you have the money to take it. As long as you cooperate with us to do something. Hu Wei wore a homemade mask on his mouth, and his speech was a little slurred. However, the gold coin he took out was very convincing, and when the man saw the money, he really wanted him to do whatever he wanted. As long as Hu worries about it, I'm afraid that there is no problem with tyranny.

"Alright, Huada, arrange for him to stay first. Waving his hand, let Hua Da take someone out first, Hu Wei brought to Hua Lao's side and asked, "Hua Lao, what do you think?" Just now, he and Hua Lao had already checked the bodies of the people who came.

Hua Lao's face was heavy and said: "I'm not optimistic, I've never encountered such a disease before." ”

"Yes, this man looks very strong, but he is nothing. I'm afraid I only have three days to live at most. Hu Wei also sighed. Based on simple observation, Dahua felt that the middle-aged man's condition was not serious, but he really didn't know that what he found was the most serious one.

This new type of disease is completely different from the previous epidemic, and it is not serious or not, and it is not something that can be seen on the surface. It is necessary to have a careful examination to know the true condition.

"You're right, this man, live for three days at most. Hua Lao's face darkened. After all, it is the disappearance of a life, and as a doctor, the last thing you want to see is that the patient is in front of you, but there is no medicine to save him.

"Elder Hua, Brother Ouyang, let's eat something first. When Huada returned to the meeting, he brought food by the way.

However, his move made Hu Wei scolded. A few more patients were examined here just now, and they were eating here, isn't that looking for death?

After observing Hua Da for a few days, he already knew that Hu Wei was a person who could be on an equal footing with Hua Lao, even if he was scolded by Hu Wei, he did not dare to refute it.

"Forget it, you are also well-intentioned, but this kind of thing will not be allowed in the future. We are now in the epidemic area, and every action must be careful and careful, otherwise we will all die here. Hu Wei scolded for a while, let out of his breath, and his tone softened back.

It's been three days, and I don't have the slightest understanding of this kind of service. The middle-aged man three days ago, despite trying to take the medicine, died this morning. This proves that the medicine prescribed by Hu Wei and Hua Lao did not help the condition at all. Not even a little relief. The pressure in my heart is great, and the anger of Hu Wei is naturally great.

"You're right, I did something wrong. I'll be more careful in the future. Huada confessed. He is a good person, as long as he does something wrong, he will not deny it and make excuses for himself.

Hu Wei nodded, ignored him anymore, and began to busy with the work in hand again.

On this day, after dinner, Hu Wei and Hua Lao were talking about their condition again, and they were talking about the medication of one of the patients, when Hu Wei suddenly said in a ghostly manner: "Hua Lao, do you think this epidemic will be caused by man-made." ”

When Hu Wei came out of his words, he remembered that he had seen a movie called 'Black Sun' before, so he thought of this possibility.

"Artificial?" Hua Lao was shocked and said, "Why do you think so." ”

Of course, Hu Wei said that he had seen it in the movie, and brought it over vaguely. However, Hua Lao's reaction made his heart suddenly, could it be that Hua Lao knew something?

Hua Lao hesitated for a while before he said under Hu Wei's gaze: "I remember that many years ago, I once studied the problem of man-made epidemics with a friend. But at the time, we only discussed it, and there were no similar experiments. ”

Hu worriedly said that no wonder this old man was in such a hurry this time, I was afraid that he was in his heart, and he had already doubted it.

"Then why didn't you do the experiment?" asked Hu You.

Hua Lao shook his head and said, "To be precise, it has been tested. We've experimented with monkeys and horses, but they haven't been successful. My friend proposed to hire people, but I didn't agree, and then the gang was dismantled. ”

Hu Weixin said that it is really in any world, you can see crazy people, it seems that in human nature, there are genes that kill the same kind, no matter whether there is mutual influence between them, they will do the same ruthless things. For example, war, such as using the same kind to make real yàn, etc.

"Then that friend of yours, did you do it again after that?" Hu Wei asked. ,

Hua Lao shook his head and said, "I don't know, this was more than thirty years ago. At that time, everyone was young and vigorous, and they all wanted to make their own achievements in medicine. The road is also very urgent. ”

Hu Wei shook his head and said, "When you dismantled the gang, you didn't destroy those numbers. ”

Hua Lao nodded and said no more. It seems that he already has his own answer in his heart.

Hu Wei Ren Hua calmed down for a while, and then said: "Can you tell me all the information you know about this friend's detailed name, residence, identity, etc." I'll send someone to find out about it. ”

Hua Lao looked at Hu for a long time with a pair of old eyes, and then said: "It's useless, of course I haven't asked his name with Ben, I only know that he calls himself thirteen, and I don't know anything else." ”

Hu Wei scratched his head and said, "This is okay?"

"There's nothing that can't be done. At that time, there were wars everywhere in the Tianfeng Continent, and I don't know what will happen tomorrow today, whether it has a name or not, and what does it matter. ”

Only then did Hu Wei remember that more than thirty years ago, it was the time when Rijkaard and the Bauhinia Dynasty fought the most fiercely, and at that time, there was no place in the entire Tianfeng Continent where there was no war, and the name was indeed not so important.

"You always remember what he looks like. In particular, there is nothing more characteristic about him. ”

"He looks very ordinary, he doesn't have any features. After all these years, I don't remember much anymore. By the way, he has a word on his chest, the size of a finger, and he has hair. ”

"Okay, it's called Thirteen, there's big letters on my chest, I'll try to have someone look it up. ”

Hu Wei is also doing his best to obey the fate of heaven, more than 30 years have passed, and young people have become old men.

It's not all the same. has no name and no surname and doesn't know what he looks like, and he doesn't even know if he is alive or not.

Although Hu Wei was on the surface this time, he was just a person who followed Hua Lao to the Chihe Empire, but in the Chihe Empire, he still had his own intelligence group. After spreading the news of finding someone, Hu Wei didn't go back to the inn and walked around alone.

In my opinion, if this epidemic is really man-made, then there must be a source of transmission, otherwise it would not have developed so terrible in a short period of time.

He wanted to look for it, focusing on the river, food, etc., to see if there was anything he could find.

Sometimes when I think about it, Hu Wei really doesn't know what to say. If this epidemic is really man-made, then the medical research of this era is too advanced, and the level of medicine here is not at the same level at all.

Alas, the Tianfeng Continent is really stormy.
