Under Zhang Yijing's arrangement, the two entrances and exits of Shuoyang City have been sealed.

At the same time, at the request of Dr. Liang, Zhang Yijing sent officials to knock on the door of each house, and then gathered all the people in the city in front of the yamen.

As far as the eye can see, there are only a few people in the entire Shuoyang City, among which the elderly are the mainstay.

During the gathering of the people in Shuoyang, Dr. Liang had already boiled a large pot of tea, and then the official began to serve tea to the people.

After waiting for a while, Dr. Liang began to go down for a check-up and found that many people had been infected.

However, Dr. Liang also found that the infected people were only mildly infected.

And the pawnshop owner and Xiao Yao in the crowd also came, and Dr. Liang did not ask the official to give the two of them tea, after all, their bruises had appeared, that is, they had been infected for a long time.

Dr. Liang then told everyone about the plague, but to his surprise, no one was surprised.

Under Dr. Liang's orders, the officials kept all the infected people, and as for the other people who were not infected, Dr. Liang gave them free medicine to prevent infection, but they still couldn't let them out of the city.

However, the remaining people in Shuoyang never thought of leaving.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was not yet dark, Dr. Liang first helped the mildly infected people to treat, and by the way, he called Ni Tianqiao and Bai Jian to help.

As for the remaining Bai Xinfan, Zhu Qingqing and Chi Lian, the three of them decided to go to the pawnshop while Dr. Liang was now retaining the pawnshop owner and Xiao Yao.

When they came to the pawnshop, Bai Xinfan picked the lock of the pawnshop door in two clicks, and the three of them quickly slipped into the pawnshop.

After a brief investigation, the three of them found nothing and went under the counter.

At this time, the three of them found that the bricks under the counter were indeed different from others, the ground outside the counter was all ordinary bricks, but there were only three large-sized bricks under the counter.

Bai Xinfan knocked all three bricks and found that the brick in the middle was empty.

Then Bai Xinfan pulled out the Stygian Sword, and with a strong prie, he pried open the floor in the middle, and a secret room emitting a strange red light appeared in front of the three of them.

Just as Baixin wanted to jump down, Chi Lian grabbed his arm.

"Wait, there's a ladder in the next room. ”

Subsequently, Bai Xinfan set up a ladder, and then slowly climbed down, and after making sure that there was no danger in the secret room, Bai Xinfan asked Zhu Qingqing and Chi Lian to come down as well.

To be on the safe side, Chilian stayed on it to keep the wind.

After Zhu Qingqing also went down to the secret room, Chi Lian whispered, "Be careful!"

With that, Bai Xinfan and Zhu Qingqing began to investigate the secret room.

The secret room is not large, but there are two rooms, and the one that emits a strange red light is a red lantern, and Zhu Qingqing wiped it and found that the lantern was woven out of red thread.

The lantern was placed under a table, and a wooden plaque was placed in the middle of the table, and Zhu Qingqing took a closer look and found that it was a spiritual tablet.

"Heart, heart, heart...... Heart...... This one...... It's ......"

In fact, Bai Xinfan noticed it at the beginning, looking at the panic on Zhu Qingqing's face, Bai Xinfan just sighed and signaled her to be quiet.

Knock Knock –

At this time, Zhu Qingqing quieted down, and in the innermost secret room, there was a sudden sound of tapping on the wooden board.

The two cautiously walked to the door, looking at the dark room, Zhu Qingqing was reluctant to enter.

Knock Knock –

There was another sound of tapping on the wooden board, and looking at the spiritual tablet beside him, Zhu Qingqing began to retreat.

However, Bai Xinfan didn't seem to be afraid, and walked directly to the table and picked up the lantern.

As the strange red light slowly moved, the secret room inside also lit up, and Zhu Qingqing covered his eyes with his hands, leaving only a gap.

Zhu Qingqing was very afraid, but what she saw next directly frightened her whole body.

The inner chamber is not large, it is one side of the outer chamber, and there are not too many things inside, only a coffin placed in the middle of the room.

Before the trembling hearts of the two could calm down, there was another knocking sound in the coffin.

Zhu Qingqing walked behind Bai Xinfan, hugged himself and asked, "Xinfan, did you say that you cheated the corpse?"

"It's unlikely, the corpse doesn't have such a light movement. ”

At this time, a pair of hands suddenly appeared behind the two, and then gently patted the shoulders of the two.

Just as Zhu Qingqing was about to scream, a pair of hands covered her mouth, and when she turned around, it turned out to be Bai Xuan.

Bai Xinfan asked curiously, "Brother Bai, aren't you helping Brother Liang?"

Bai Jian waved his hand and said, "My fingers are almost swollen, and I have finally finished treating the mildly infected patients." ”

At this time, Bai Jian also noticed the coffin in the room, and he was also taken aback.

Soon, under the protection of the two macho men, Zhu Qingqing reluctantly walked in.

The three of them simply walked around the coffin, during which there was a sound in the coffin, and the three of them were frightened.

However, the three of them also confirmed that there was nothing in this room except this coffin.

Just as the three of them were discussing whether to pry open the coffin, Chi Lian suddenly told the three of them to hurry up.

After going up, before they could react, a sudden sound came from outside the door, and it sounded like a pawnshop owner.

The four of them quickly put the wooden ladder up, then closed the bricks and hid in the next room.

But it's not a way to hide like this, but at this time, Bai Jian found that there was light on the tile on his head, indicating that there was only one layer of tile.

The four escaped to the roof before the pawnshop owner returned, and then returned to the yamen.

Just as the four of them were returning, the pawnshop owner also went down to the secret room, only to see him bow twice to the spiritual tablet, and then prepare to pick up the lantern and enter the room inside.

However, at this moment, the pawnshop owner noticed that the lantern had been moved again, after all, the table was covered with a layer of dust.

Confused, the pawnshop owner walked into the room inside, and then knocked on the coffin, and there was a knocking sound from the coffin.

"Did someone just come in?" asked the pawnshop owner, touching the coffin.

Then a faint voice came from the coffin: "There seemed to be footsteps just now, I thought it was you, did something happen?"

"Nothing, you have a good rest. ”

After saying that, the pawnshop owner quickly returned to the top, and then found that the ladder also had traces of being moved.

At this time, the pawnshop owner was already suspicious of several people.

After a few people returned to the yamen, they told Dr. Liang and Ni Tianwan everything they had encountered.

Doctor Liang said suspiciously: "If I guess correctly, the coffin you found is the place used to cultivate corpse bacteria. ”

After that, Dr. Liang took out the silver needle from before and continued: "I studied it carefully, and what made the silver needle black was the corpse fungus, plus the pawnshop owner and the boy were the most infected, there is no doubt that the pawnshop is the source of the plague. ”

Pawnshop, cadaveric, plague.

Zhang Yijing, who was on the side, pondered for a moment, and finally decided to arrest the pawnshop owner, but was stopped by Dr. Liang.

Doctor Liang said with a serious face: "I don't know the method of exterminating corpse fungi, but the people who cultivate it must know, so let's wait and see what happens." ”
