Chapter 50: Anecdotes

Early the next morning, Ji Nuan went out with Yu Man, she still decided to go to Yueyang to have a look, and Jiang Yu had already prepared a carriage and waited outside the inn.

Tang Yanyan waited for a free time yesterday, and asked him about Cheng Xiaorou's situation again. Zima told him that there had been a recent outbreak of plague in Yueyang, and she had gone to Yueyang. If it weren't for the imminent matter of Qinzhou, Zijian would have gone to Yueyang a long time ago.

Tang Yanyan didn't hear anything about the plague at all, only knew that Cheng Xiaorou was in Yueyang, so he enthusiastically explained that Jiang Yu had prepared the carriage.

Seeing Ji Nuan and the others walking out, they immediately greeted them, and said with a smile: "Ji Nuan, I'm interested enough, right? The carriage is ready, let's go."

Ji Nuan didn't know his careful thoughts, nodded and smiled at him, and then a few people set off.

At the same time, Zhu Changqin and his entourage were still leisurely drinking tea and listening to stories in the Qinzhou teahouse. During this time, he always heard Mr. Storyteller tell about his glorious deeds of fighting the snake demon, and his vanity was greatly satisfied.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today I will explain to you the secret of this monk's disappearance! , this season, the warm girl braved the hardships and broke into the secret room alone. At this critical moment, it was Song Jue Song Immortal Master who saved her, and the two of them were called one Deng, right..."

Mr. Storyteller is telling the story of Song Wangchen vs. Mo Feng in a colorful voice. Below was filled with people who had come to listen attentively, and every now and then they would ask a question or two.

Suddenly, someone asked: "I heard that the people who killed the demons this time are all Zhufeng disciples Zhu Changqin, then Song Jue also broke into the Mo Mansion, which of the two of them do you say is more powerful?"

When the storyteller heard this, he gushed out again: "It is said that this Zhufeng disciple Zhu Changqin is also quite powerful, and he killed two snake demons with his own hands. It's just that, compared to this Song Juelai, it's still more than a star and a half, you said so many monks' lives, he..."

'Bang', Zhu Changqin slapped the table angrily when he heard this, and even the dishes and chopsticks on the table trembled.

The storyteller was so frightened that he retreated, and the other people looked at him and whispered something.

Li Qingyuan hurriedly tugged at his sleeve and shook his head, and then he picked up his sword and walked out of the teahouse angrily.

"Senior brother, don't be angry, just let him be proud for a while, and we'll think of other ways." Li Qingyuan caught up with him, and after being glared at by him, he immediately lowered his head.

How could he not be angry, a few days ago, all the people in the streets and alleys were preaching about his great achievements, and they all said that Duxi was full of talents, and his Changqin was more powerful than Song Jue or something. But in just a few days, the world only knows Song Jue, and has long forgotten his existence, as long as Song Wangchen is there, he can only be a foil forever.

"Damn". Zhu Changqin angrily smashed his fist on the stone wall, and the wall was smashed into a big hole.

The other disciples didn't dare to approach him when they saw him like this. Li Qingyuan showed an imperceptible smile and walked over slowly.

"Senior brother, don't be angry, I have a way...", he began to whisper in Zhu Changqin's ear, and Zhu Changqing's originally angry face slowly turned into an evil smile...

When Ji Nuan and his party passed through Zhangzhou, they rested in a simple tea shed on the side of the road. A middle-aged man drinking tea is spitting about a strange thing that happened in Yueyang recently.

The locust trees that were supposed to bloom in April and May on Yueyang Qilin Mountain actually bloomed overnight in the cold winter, and the rich and tangy aroma could be smelled throughout Yueyang City.

At the beginning, the people were excited to think that it was a godsend, and some of the people who backed the mountain went to pick locust flowers one after another, and used them to make wine or make acacia cakes, which produced sweet and delicious, fragrant and mellow. For a time, it attracted a lot of wine merchants to buy.

But it didn't take long for some people in Yueyang to start having sores on their mouths and tongues, and their limbs were weak. Even Qin Sang, the sect leader of Yueyang City, was not spared, and before, Qin Huai and Yueluo returned to Yueyang because of this matter.

The people of the Qin Mansion felt that there was something wrong with the bizarre blooming acacia flower. It's no wonder that those wine merchants shipped out of Yueyang's wine, and other people also bought and drank it, but they didn't feel sweet and fragrant, but they felt that the mouth was extremely bitter, and it was difficult to swallow, but fortunately, they did not have symptoms of mouth and tongue sores.

After Qin Huai returned to Yueyang, he found that Qin Sang was bedridden, his face and body were full of thick sores, and even his consciousness was blurred.

He knew that the situation was serious, and immediately repaired the book and returned to Duxi, hoping to invite the doctor Mu Xun to come to help, and soon Mu Xun took Mu Ran and a few little medicine boys to Yueyang. But even though Mu Xun was there, he could only temporarily suppress Qin Sang's illness, and did not find a way to eradicate it.

On the other hand, in Yueyang City, more and more people are suffering from this disease, and they cover their faces with veils all day long, for fear of being infected by others. But despite this, there are still people infected with evil diseases every day, and Yueluo took the disciples of the Qin Mansion to inspect Qilin Mountain every day, and they did not find any traces of demons and demons, so they thought of destroying the tree.

At first, they thought of fire, but it was so cold and snowy that the fire couldn't burn. Later, they began to cut down, but there were many locust trees in Qilin Mountain, because most of the people were infected with the epidemic, and there was not much labor available.

Qin Huai had no choice but to ask Duxi for help again, and later Cheng Jin sent someone to Yueyang, Cheng Xiaorou, as the only daughter of the head, took the brunt of the rush to Yueyang...

Later, most of the people in the city were infected with a vicious disease, and they were afraid that the epidemic would spread, and Yueyang would be blocked, and they could only enter but not leave. Of course, except for some immortal families, who would dare to enter?

When Tang Yanyan heard their conversation, he immediately thought of Cheng Xiaorou's safety. He stood up excitedly and said worriedly: "Let's go, go to Yueyang."

Jiang Yu had learned the lesson of the last time, and immediately pulled Tang Yanyan to sit down and said softly: "Don't worry, son, I'll ask."

Then he walked up to the middle-aged man who spoke, saluted respectfully and asked, "This little brother, as you said, Yueyang City has been blocked, how can you know these things in such detail?"

The man looked up at him and said with a smile: "Brother, you don't know, my mother's family lives outside Yueyang City, and they came to my house for refuge, I only know so clearly."

The men who had been chatting at the same table with him all stood up in fear and made a gesture to leave when they heard him say this. He immediately waved his hand again and said with a smile: "Brothers, don't worry, it's strange to say, although the epidemic is rampant in Yueyang City, no one outside the city is infected, and I will naturally not be infected."

A few people continued to sit down, but they all shook their heads in surprise. Jiang Yu said, "Thank you for informing" and walked back. A few people began to make small talk again.

"Let's go, just go and see anyway." Ji Nuan got up as he spoke, this time, Tang Yanyan was the most active and had taken the lead in walking out of the inn.

Two days later, several people had arrived outside the city of Yueyang, and the occasional fragrance of flowers was refreshing, but they guessed that this might be the key to the epidemic, and several people had to follow the example of others and wear veils.

When Zhang Yuheng saw Yu Man, he immediately waved excitedly and shouted, "Cousin." He was leading a white horse at this time, and his black and white costume made him full of spirit, completely different from the young man covered in blood and full of evil eyes before. It's just that as soon as he saw Ji Nuan, he immediately lowered his head weakly, not daring to say anything more.

Standing next to him was his eldest brother Zhang Yuning, who was staring at Yu Man with joy, only to feel that the little girl who was once arrogant was now becoming more and more smart. They were also followed by a group of Zhang disciples, Zhangzhou was the closest to Yueyang, and this trip was also to deliver medicine.

Yu Man didn't show any joy, but politely replied: "Cousin, Yuheng, you are also here."

This is the first time she has called Zhang Yuning's cousin after Yu Man's mother died, and she used to call him by her first name and surname, and even sometimes she didn't want to talk to him.

"Xiaoman, this Yueyang plague is raging, you shouldn't come." Zhang Yuning is honest and honest, and the words that should have been caring, were accused by him.

Yu Man understands his personality, so naturally he won't take it to heart. But if it had been before, he might have cried and begged for mercy by now.

When he was a child, he was beaten by Yu Man a lot, but he still secretly admired her. It's just that he never dared to show his heart, and always felt that he was not worthy of her.

"What about the plague rampant, it is man-made, and someone must solve these things." After Yu Man finished speaking, she turned her eyes to look at Ji Nuan, she knew that Ji Nuan would not leave, so she accompanied her.

Zhang Yuning only noticed Ji Nuan at this time, and nodded respectfully at her: "Presumably this is Miss Ji, last time her brother was killed, fortunately the girl rescued her, and Yuning is grateful."

Ji Nuan replied: "Zhang Gongzi doesn't need to be polite, these are just out of my instinct, Ji Nuan is also honored to be able to help Zhang Gongzi."

Zhang Yuning suddenly sighed when he heard this: "It's a pity that the other three disciples of my Zhang Mansion chose to kill themselves in order to protect Yuheng, it's really pitiful!"

Ji Nuan was stunned when she heard this, and then she understood again that Zhang Yuheng's cruel killing of his fellow disciples in order to survive was disgraceful after all, and he must have lied. Seeing Zhang Yuheng even more nervous and hiding behind Zhang Yuning, she was even more sure of her guess.

Tang Yanyan saw that everyone had their own concerns, and he was even more worried about Xiaorou's safety. Hurriedly asked: "This Yueyang city gate is closed, how can we get in?"

Zhang Yuning pointed to the city wall and replied: "There is an enchantment next to the city gate, although it looks no different from the ordinary city wall, it is the only road leading to the city now."

A few people followed his hand and looked at it, only to find that there was indeed something strange at the city wall, and that wall was relatively blurry, and it turned out to be an enchantment.

"Let's go, let's see." Yu Man smiled softly at Ji Nuan, this scene happened to be seen by Zhang Yuning, he only felt that Xiaoman had changed a lot, and his heart was even happier.

Then several people walked towards the enchantment together, and Zhang Yuheng walked to the end, separated from everyone by a long distance. The matter of Mofu will always be a knot in his heart, and his most unbearable side was discovered by Ji Nuan. He was afraid that one day she would shake it all out, and his reputation would be ruined.

Walking to the enchantment, Ji Nuan suddenly turned around and smiled at him: "Yuheng, this Yueyang is not much better than Qinzhou, you must be careful." She had already let go of her heart, and these words were actually heartfelt concern.

But to Zhang Yuheng's ears, these words clearly had a warning meaning. After Ji Nuan turned around, a trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes again.
