Chapter 36 Incidents for a Reason
When the three of them heard this, their faces were heavy, and Doctor Fang said, "No wonder we started treating patients with a broken and improved condition, and then their condition worsened suddenly.
For so long, I have not been able to find the crux of the problem, it turns out that it is because someone has thrown medicine into the well in an attempt to kill the people of the whole city.
Luo Xue reminded, "You can slowly find out who administered the medicine, but the most important thing now is whether you have checked whether all the wells in the city have been drugged."
Physician Wei also said in a deep voice at this time, "When we went to the well in the west of the city to get water to extinguish the fire just now, Doctor Tan accidentally sprinkled water on the jade pendant on his waist.
The water from this well was sprinkled on the jade pendant and there was smoke, and the three of us immediately examined the water, but we couldn't detect anything abnormal, so I had to take the water to you to see.
Doctor Tan went to the other fifteen wells in the city to check the situation, and found that all the wells had an abnormality in contact with the jade pendant, and now it seems that there are no clean wells in the city."
Luo Xue frowned and said, "In this way, everyone is not without help, and the only way to survive is to find a clean water source as soon as possible." ”
"The difficulty is that the north and south gates of the city are sealed by the forbidden army, and it is impossible for them to let us out of the city. Doctor Tan also had a heavy face, and Luo Xue nodded and looked at them.
"I'll solve the problem of water sources, and you should inform the people as soon as possible not to drink water from the wells to see if the disease can be controlled. ”
"Miss Luo, you have really helped us a lot, the old man has thanked you here for the people of Yancheng. ”
Luo Xue waved her hand, "Thank you for not needing, teach me some real skills when the time comes."
Not wanting to hear them express their gratitude again, Luo Xue turned around and walked out of the city after speaking.
For her, in fact, these can only be regarded as a gesture of effort, and she is not a saint and mother, let alone a hero who sacrifices her small self to fulfill her big self.
For yourself, it's okay to help others within the scope of your ability. If it is beyond the scope of his ability, he will never come to any troubled waters, and his life will definitely come first.
Walking all the way to the city gate, it was a miserable sight all the way. Both the streets and the houses were left in ruins after a fire, and they were never seen again.
Some of the corpses parked on the side of the road, near the periphery, naturally there is no slag left, and some near the inner perimeter are burned like black charcoal, and they have long been unable to distinguish whether they are individual types.
At this time, the city gate was guarded by Chen Daoting, the commander of the forbidden army, and Ji Yuanshan, his subordinate deputy commander. Through the release of her divine sense, Luo Xue still had a slight understanding of their situation, walked through the streets and alleys, came to the north gate guarded by Chen Daoting, and shouted loudly
"The little girl Luo Xue, the daughter of Luo Guozhong, the prime minister of Zhao State, passed through Guidi, and never wanted to be trapped in the city, so she hereby asked to see General Chen. ”
shouted several times in a row, but there was no response, if he used his spiritual power to shout out, this General Chen must have heard it, as for not responding, it is estimated that he does not want to meddle in his affairs, since General Chen is not very enthusiastic, Luo Xue had to find the door.
Performing stealth techniques, she jumped up the city wall in a few grandiose ways, and when she found someone, this General Chen was turning clouds and rain in the tent with a beautiful woman in his arms.
Luo Xue, who listened to the movement, blushed and had to retreat, but after waiting in the distance for a while, he didn't see the two of them coming out of it.
These two people are too capable of doing it, Luo Xue was helpless, and waited patiently for a while, but she didn't see the two of them come out, she couldn't help it.
Luo Xue came to the door of Chen Daoting's room again, pushed open the door of the outer room and walked inside. The room was quiet, there was no sound, and when she walked to the bed, Luo Xue was startled.
I saw the clothes of the two scattered around the bed, and the air was filled with an obscene atmosphere, but in this picture. But on the bed lay a woman covered in blood, her eyes wide open, blank, and her body stiff, and she seemed to be dead.
I saw a small dagger stuck in her heart, and the blood stained the few clothes on her body, Chen Daoting was lying on the bed, his eyes were open as if he was in a daze, and he didn't notice that there was another person next to the bed.
Luo Xue was also a little shocked, this General Chen regarded women as playthings, and regarded human life as grass mustard, this is to kill people when they are done playing?
blamed himself for hiding farther away for a moment just now, and he didn't release his divine sense to observe the movements of the two of them, so that such a careless thing happened under his nose.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Chen Daoting was not a good dog, and it was okay to kill him! Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a sword hanging in the room, which must be Chen Daoting's sword, Luo Xue didn't want to pull it out, and stabbed at Chen Daoting with a sword.
This time, Chen Daoting sensed the danger, and he rolled over, avoiding a sword that stabbed him in the chest.
Luo Xue stabbed again, he grabbed the blade with his backhand, and grabbed the blade in his hand, blood flowed out of his fingers, he didn't frown, and said sharply, "Don't pretend to be a ghost, come out." ”
is a little timid, but Luo Xue is not the one who can forgive him with this bit of guts, and he uses his spiritual power to shoot away.
This force directly collapsed the bed, and the body of the woman on the bed also fell into a pile of sawdust, Chen Daoming sat in a pile of scattered wooden shelves, coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood.
The hand he had grabbed the blade of the sword had all his fingers severed from the force of the slap he had just slapped, and blood was dripping from the severance.
He wiped the blood from his mouth with his other hand and stood up, "Your Excellency has profound skills, why do you act so sneakily, don't you dare to see it when you come out?"
Luo Xue had no intention of talking nonsense with him, and stabbed again with his sword, although the person was invisible, the sword was exposed, and these swords couldn't stab him.
This person has good personal skills, and at first glance he is a battle-hardened person. Luo Xue threw away her sword and showed her figure, "What a General Chen, the people outside are in dire straits, but you are warm fragrant nephrite in your arms, even so, you are still careless about human life, it's damned!"
"The girl only knows that I killed someone, but who is this person?"
Chen Daoting pointed to the female corpse that fell to the ground, and said coldly, "Since you have the courage to come to my side to assassinate, you must be mentally prepared to bear the consequences." Why be merciful to the enemy?" he said, raising his bleeding left hand
"I want to ask you, girl, first peeping at me inappropriately, and then indiscriminately cutting off my five fingers, can you explain?"
It seems that he has wronged him, hey, this woman, I still can't get used to such a man, I went to Wushan with other girls one second, and I can put a dagger in the next second.
Luo Xue said angrily, "If it weren't for your liking of women, how could these assassins take advantage of it." Besides, you are in an important position in the imperial court, but you set fire to it without finding out the truth, do you know how many lives there are?
One yard to one yard, and now Luo Xue still needs his help. The tea table in front of him was cut off by the fight just now, and several of the teacups on the table were broken, Luo Xue picked up a teacup that was not yet affected, and poured herself a cup of tea.
The reason why Chen Daoting was patient was nothing more than seeing that this girl had a strange body and extraordinary strength, and he couldn't beat her, but now that he saw her sit down, he naturally understood that she had something to ask for.
So he made up his mind, and while taking out gauze from the bedside cabinet to bandage his wound, he spoke
"The girl said that she was from Zhao and was trapped in the city through here, but looking at the girl's ability, she didn't look like a person who could be trapped in the city, so let's say, what are you looking for me. ”
Luo Xue took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly, "General Chen, do you know the origin of this plague in Yancheng?"
Hearing this, Chen Daoting stopped bandaging his wound and turned his head to look at Luo Xue, "Where did it come from?" Do you mean that this plague happened for a reason?"
"Yes, today General Chen set fire to the city, and the people took water to fight the fire, only to find that all the sixteen wells in the city were drugged, which shows that this is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster. ”
Luo Xue said as she stood up, walked around Chen Daoting, carefully observed his expression and saw that he was not abnormal, and then continued.
"I don't want to know what contradictions and disputes there are between the magnates of your Yan Kingdom, and what is behind this Yancheng epidemic.
I have come today because the people are innocent, and I hope you will let them live."
