Chapter 130: The Plague Ghost

So that's it...... Those officers and soldiers not only have the purpose of killing good people and taking meritorious deeds, but also have the intention of looting, the gentry are strong and they dare not rob, and those homeless people have nothing to rob, but there is no protection around the city, and they are unceremonious.

Shibangou Village is close to the mountains, the land is barren and difficult to cultivate, and the gentry and heroes do not look down on it, they thought it was safe, but they didn't think it would still be difficult to escape bad luck.

I don't know how many people have a similar fate.

In such a situation, will he continue to enter the city?

Chi Zheng hesitated for a while, but even if he didn't enter the city, it was impossible to bypass it, the entire official road was occupied by the court officers and soldiers below, and it was difficult to bypass the side of the official road at a glance of the endless plain.

"Old man......"

Standing in the cage, "Tail Grudge" said suddenly: "There seems to be a plague ghost in front." ”

"What did you say?"

Chi Zheng bowed his head in surprise.

"Plague Ghost...... I had smelled it before, and it was left behind by the passage of the plague ghosts. ”

"Tail grudge," he said firmly.

"Plague ghosts?"

Chi Zheng heard the "tail grudge" say that the plague ghost is a ghost naturally generated in the heaven and earth in the sneaky, born in the epidemic atmosphere, and likes to spread the plague.

"Why are there plague ghosts here?"

"Master, it should be that too many people have died, attracting the plague ghosts, hey, there are too many mortals who have died, if they are not properly handled, it is easy to have a plague, not to mention that the plague ghosts are attracted over, and it is even more fueling'fire', the small ones can't see ten days and a half months, and the mortals below will die, and they will implicate more mortals. ”

"Tail resentment" gloating, it turned out to be the resentment of mortals, and seeing mortals unlucky, they naturally became happy.

Pestilence......

Even if this thing is put in modern times, it is a terrible threat to some backward countries, let alone ancient times.

With so many displaced people gathered together, not to mention eating and drinking, it must be that the sanitary conditions are extremely poor, and with all kinds of pollution and dead people, it is too normal for the plague to break out.

Seeing Chi Zheng's silent appearance, the "tail grudge" was also a little worried: "Master, why don't you take a detour, don't be contaminated with the plague." ”

"Is there a way to kill that plague ghost?"

Chi Zheng asked rhetorically.

"Killed the plague ghost?"

"Tail Grudge" was stunned and said: "This plague ghost is extremely cunning, and has a magical power, which can distract thousands of people into the body of the patient, unless all the mortals below are killed, there will always be fish that escape from the net." ”

It seems that this plague ghost is almost the same as the "tail grudge", and it is difficult to kill.

"Won't that stop the plague?"

"The breath of this plague ghost is very strong...... It's been a long time to come here, sir, I'm afraid I can't do it. ”

"Tail grudge" shook his head.

"Always do something. ”

Chi Zheng thought of the slaughtered Shibangou Village, his face was a little unsightly, he suddenly turned over, untied the Qingfeng sword and package, and released the "tail grudge" and the white cat.

"Miss Tu, you and the grapes stay nearby for the time being, don't let people see it, and the poor road will come to look for you tomorrow. ”

The white cat landed on the back of "Grape", as if he understood Chi Zheng's words, and craned his neck in agreement.

Chi Zheng touched the head of the "grape" again, and the clever mule also understood the master's words, snorted, and walked back.

The lord is going to be nosy again.

"Tail Grudge" jumped into Chi Zheng's collar, but it didn't matter, but it was not good to worry that the plague would pass on to the master.

Chi Zheng put the package behind his back, and tied the Qingfeng sword to the inside of the package, and took out a black cloth towel to tie it on his face, which was used as a mask.

Only then did he stride down.

Originally, he did want to take a detour, although the difficulties were not impossible, but when he heard that tens of thousands of displaced people below, or even more people, might die because of the impending outbreak of the plague, he could really let it go?

Ren, the soldier harms himself and benefits what he does. Ren, for the evil of the body, to the urgency of adults.

He couldn't do these two points, but he also had a feeling that Hedao Jade chose him, was it just to make up for the defects of the jade plate?

A real immortal, you can't turn a blind eye to this when you encounter it, right?

Well, the above is all nonsense, purely after seeing the slaughtered village before, a breath of anger in his heart can not be dissipated for a long time, can the people only be slaughtered lambs, allowed to be bullied by bureaucrats and gentry, and then bullied by ghosts and gods? What a cruel thing this is.

Soon, the large camp in the distance became clearer and clearer.

In ancient times, if they were able, the imperial court and government could not let themselves go, but would set up a large camp to restrain the homeless, register their places of origin and names one by one, and never enter and leave at will, otherwise, once the homeless people rioted, it would be a great trouble.

Because of the civil unrest in this place, a lot of people died, and the government became more vigilant against the homeless, and many arrow towers were built around the whole camp, and horses were also set up, so it was generally difficult for the homeless people without weapons to get out.

Chi Zheng thought about it, and did not cast the "Leaping Rock" spell, otherwise it would be too wasteful, but took out a hidden true secret in advance, and then went around to the door, and passed by the officers and soldiers guarding the door.

After entering the camp of the homeless people, Chi Zheng suddenly frowned.

Looking from the gate of the camp, it was full of wooden tents and homeless people sitting on the ground, and the government was not without care, and some tents were made, but unfortunately the number was very small, and it was crowded with homeless people.

The ground is muddy and filthy, and it is obvious that there is no centralized latrine, and there is no good hygiene, and the stench is strong and visually impactful, making it difficult for people to take a step forward.

No wonder...... The officers and soldiers are only guarding outside, and not a single officer and soldier inside can be seen, where do you want to come in!

Chi Zheng still stepped in, looking around, every homeless person had a numb look on his face, sitting on the ground in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

As soon as he stopped, he found dozens of corpses lying in an open space in front of him, all of their clothes robbed, probably dead from hunger and cold, or disease, or even a precursor to the plague.

But what made Chi Zheng's scalp tingle were the corpses, some of which had obviously been scraped with knives, revealing bones.

Does the government really care?

It's almost like cannibalism!

He was in a trance for a while, when he was in Shibangou Village, he also felt that although the villagers looked quite poor, they would not be without food, but the distance of dozens of miles was very different.

Analyzing bones and cooking, changing children and eating, is a human tragedy that is unimaginable to modern people.

"Tail grudge, can you find traces of the plague ghost?"

Chi Zheng asked in a low voice.

"Sir, the smell is very mixed. ”

"Tail Resentment" sniffed his nose and said in embarrassment.

After Chi Zheng entered the camp, he also felt deeply troubled, and while thinking about it, he suddenly heard a woman crying and screaming, and immediately heard the sound and looked, and found that there was a woman holding a child crying on the straw mat, and the child vomited outward, shaking all over, and the surrounding homeless people avoided it.

"Master, don't go over, that kid and the people around him have epidemic ......"

"Tail Grievance" reminded Chi Zheng: "Master, get out of here quickly, this place is surrounded by epidemics, and it is irreparable." ”
