Chapter 683: This way of dying is not like getting sick
All the people who came up were shaken away.
The young lady blushed and shouted: "Even if it's the Immortal League, you can't bully people like this! Go and invite the people from the inn to come, I want to listen, what explanation does the Immortal League have!"
The person who went out to report the news, Zi Sang Muxi did not stop him.
There is something wrong with this Cai Mansion, which is similar to what she guessed before.
The hometown residents are seriously ill and dying, but there is no trace of sadness in the whole mansion.
If it's the problem of the old man himself......
But looking at the situation of this young lady, I'm afraid that there is some unfilial side quest activated.
With the idea that it would be a fool not to brush the task, Zi Sang Muxi decided to be nosy.
It was too boring to wait for someone to come on the spot, and Zisang Muxi began to break in. The big man's room is very recognizable, anyway, it is the largest, most extravagant and most nouveau riche one!
Pushing the door in, Cai Bo was lying on the bed alone, and there was no one watching beside him.
Zi Sang Muxi sighed twice: "In this situation, I said that your husband and wife are plotting against each other, is it wrong?"
The young lady who followed in, her face was red and white.
Cai Bo's condition is really not good, the thin body can't be seen, his face is gray, it is estimated that if it drags on for another two days, he will really be buried in the ground.
Zi Sang Muxi took out the pill given by Tang Nanzhi from her backpack, and she didn't know what to give Cai Bo at this time, so she casually took some qi-invigorating tonic for him to eat.
After taking the medicine, Cai Bo is much better.
When he opened his eyes, he saw two girls he had never seen, and he was not as panicked as outsiders.
"The two are ......"
"Hello Cai Bo, we are the staff of the Immortal Alliance who came to Phoenix Town to investigate. Zisang Muxi smiled slightly, "I want to ask you about the past things in Phoenix Town." ”
"Formerly ......"
Zi Sang Muxi gestured and asked Mu Ranran to push out the young lady who was shouting next to him.
The room was quiet, and Cai Bo seemed to have not spoken to anyone for a long time, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he began to talk endlessly.
"The girl wanted to ask about the epidemic thirty years ago, right? I came up with this, and there is nothing in Phoenix Town worthy of the attention of the Immortal Alliance. ”
Wow, on the road!
Mu Ranran moved a stool and asked Zisang Muxi to sit and chat, and after hearing Cai Bo's words, she asked: "What about the phoenix? They all said that there was a phoenix in Phoenix Town!"
"The legend of the phoenix, thousands of years away, seven or eight hundred years in the short term, whether it is true or false, who dares to say now. There is such a legend, if someone comes to our remote town, someone comes, we can live a good life, and I don't think they want to drown the legend and cut off the financial route. Cai Bo smiled, followed by a cough.
Zi Sang Muxi got up and poured a glass of water, then helped Cai Bo to drink it, then sat down and asked: "We are indeed here to ask about the epidemic thirty years ago, I heard that the Siming Academy came up with an elixir back then, and it was particularly useful, but later, why did the epidemic suddenly worsen and so many people died?"
"Hey......" Cai Bo sighed, "When people get old, they will remember those old things." Speaking of those days, it was really miserable. I remember that day, I gambled in the casino all night and left until dawn. I won a lot of money that day, paid off all the foreign debts I owed, and I still have a lot left. When I got home, I thought about going back to sleep for a while, and then get up to have a good meal, but I didn't expect to turn the corner and see a pair of ...... Something I'll never forget in my life. ”
According to Cai Bo, he came out of the casino that day to go home and saw an acquaintance near his home. He had won a lot of money and was ready to show it off. Before he could get closer, he suddenly saw the man kneeling on the ground in agony, with his mouth open and unable to cry out.
Cai Bo said: "The kneeling person slowly lies down, and his limbs begin to move uncontrollably, moving to the back, and his hands and feet become a kind of ...... A...... Posture that is simply impossible to achieve......"
"What position?"
"His hands were behind his back, as if someone was pulling hard until his shoulders were brought together!"
The shoulders are touched behind you, and generally speaking, there is no external force, and it is impossible to do it on your own.
Cai Bo continued: "And his legs...... After lifting it high, it was like someone had broken it, and it was put on the shoulder as if it had no bones......"
"......" Isn't that just a ball?
And this posture can't be done by yourself, right?
Zi Sang Muxi didn't believe that someone was practicing yoga in this era......
"I'm afraid I'm in a hurry like that...... I didn't know how long I stood there, but I finally had the courage to go over and take a look. But that man is dead...... Keeping this strange posture, keeping the look of horror on his face, and just dying like that......"
If someone passed by and saw it at that time, they would definitely think that Cai Bo killed that person.
Fortunately, it was just dawn at that time, and there was no one on the road.
"I was so scared that my legs went limp, and I almost crawled out of there," Cai Bo said. It was when I was far away that I suddenly heard some voices behind me and smelled a fragrance...... At the time, I didn't know why, I was obviously scared to death, but I still looked back. ”
The inexplicable person, who died inexplicably in an inexplicable posture, was inexplicably on fire again.
Zi Sang Muxi asked: "Was there something around that person at that time, lighting him?"
"Absolutely not. "He was walking down the street with nothing on either side, and he didn't take anything himself...... And that smell, I think it came from him when it was burning......"
Tianshu said at this time: "It can't be the aroma of roasting......"
Zi Sang Muxi: "......" is too heavy!
But I heard Cai Bo say that the fragrance was very special, and it could only be smelled in Phoenix Town, where the epidemic broke out at that time.
The first thing that Zi Sang Muxi thought of was the epidemic caused by fragrance.
"On that day, several people died in Phoenix Town, and rumors of an epidemic came out. I heard that the men were dead in the same way as the acquaintance I had met. The posture is weird, then death, followed by spontaneous combustion, and finally the fragrance comes out. For the next period of time, the fragrance lingered in Phoenix Town for a long time, until the elixir appeared and the epidemic was suppressed, and the fragrance slowly dissipated. ”
"Then Cai Bo, were you sick at that time, did you take medicine?"
"After having the elixir, the sick are eating, and the non-sick are also eating, and the people in Phoenix Town at that time have eaten the elixir. "I didn't get sick, but I never got sick until the epidemic worsened...... I didn't smell myself either, there was that fragrance......"
"What does that mean?"
"After the outbreak of the epidemic, I stumbled upon the smell of people who were dying. I grew up with a good nose and noticed the subtle smells more easily than others. ”
