Early the next morning, Tian Yuan dragged her soft and numb long legs and wanted to stay, muttering in her mouth: "Ms. sir, the first batch of bird gold threads for bird gold embroidery has been twisted out. It is the time for embroidery in the past two days. When the weaving is critical, I have to watch over it and make sure nothing goes wrong."
She just stood up, but saw her husband running to the couch, putting his hands on her body, and pressing her back down with a gentle pressure.
Tian Yuan was stunned for a moment, feeling funny in her heart. She felt that her husband was acting like a naughty little kid, so she lay down on the cave and said, "Master, please stop fooling around."
Li Xuan said seriously: "It's not nonsense. You are at home today. If Buzhuang is delayed for two days, it will be delayed for two days."
Tian Yuan blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at Lang Jun, and asked doubtfully: "That epidemic..."
Li Xuan nodded and said: "It's very serious, and... I haven't even figured out how it can spread."
Tian Yuan said: "I also know something about it. In the past, plague was transmitted from person to person. As long as the patient was isolated, it would not affect others. If the patient died, it would be cleared by burning it."
Li Xuandao: "That's a normal plague."
Tian Yuan raised her lips and said with a smile: "Then there is nothing abnormal about it?"
Li Xuan thought of the terrifying coercion of the upper-level demon; of the demon that was as tall as a red python flying hundreds of feet across the sky, but couldn't see its true form at all; of the second-level secret martial artist who died on the spot like an ordinary person, he said in a deep voice Said: "This time is very abnormal."
Tian Yuan suddenly pursed her lips, looked at Li Xuan quietly with a pair of clean eyes, and said sternly: "My husband can tell me, you can trust me... I am my husband's pillow, so I wish your husband well than anyone else." .”
Li Xuandao: "This plague was brought by demons."
After thinking for a while, he emphasized again: "It's a big demon."
Tian Yuan raised her hand, took Li Xuan's hand that was resting on the edge of the cave, folded her hands gently, and said softly: "Mr.
Li Xuanqi asked: "What's wrong?"
Tian Yuan had small dimples on her cheeks and said, "I feel that my husband is like an immortal in the world. He knows everything, even about demons and gods."
Li Xuan smiled and said: "Then you have to give me, an immortal, two more fat boys."
Tian Yuan breathed rapidly and said: "I want to be good with my husband and raise a fat boy for him."
The air was quiet for a while.
Tian Yuan calmed down and said: "Since it is a plague brought by a big demon, my father-in-law went to Bantian Gorge to seal the road. Will something happen? Can the road be sealed?"
Li Xuan looked thoughtful.
He found that he still lacked the experience to deal with such emergencies.
Perhaps he can handle matters that only involve him alone, but he is not so good at matters that require the cooperation of others and involve the organization.
He asked his father to seal the road because he felt it needed to be sealed.
But what happens next?
He didn't think deeply.
Because, if he were to seal the road by himself, he would act by ear and there would be no problems at all.
But that's exactly the problem. He won't have any problems because he has hidden secrets and sorcery, but others may not be able to do so.
The demon is so terrifying that even if Wei Yao goes there, it won't be of any use.
This is like bargaining with him. His level of counter-offering was simply a "scumbag", but he believed that if he asked his fallen lady to counter-offer, he might not be able to get the real cost price out of the price.
Seeing his silence, Tian Yuan said softly: "If it is really the big demon who did it, sir... how about we just seal the city?"
I found a secret granary in the Tian family. If it were scattered, it would be enough to feed the whole county for half a year.
In the past six months, I have finally been able to see the situation clearly.
If it really doesn’t work, then..."
A look of determination appeared on her face, "Abandon the car to protect the commander, the county will not care, concentrate the food and protect my Li family, this will save me for more than a year."
If the husband decided, he would quickly call the father-in-law back.
I will take care of the matter of closing the city. "
Li Xuan settled his thoughts and said: "Just follow what the lady said."
With that said, he turned around and rushed out of the house, took a horse from the stable, jumped up, and walked away.
In the room, Tian Yuan watched his walking figure in ecstasy. After taking a few breaths, she hurriedly stood up.
The word "monster" is actually not unfamiliar to her. After all... Tianjia Chamber of Commerce has traveled far and wide, and has heard some rumors about monsters.
However, Xianggong actually knew that the plague was caused by demons, and even emphasized that it was a big demon. Xianggong... is really capable.
Tian Yuan thought and stood up quickly. Regardless of her sore legs and waist, she quickly put on her clothes and went out.
Today in Xiongshan County, the Li family covers the sky with one hand.
If the Li family wanted to seal this city, they would be able to seal it.
...
...
In the canyon, the number of people is getting more and more crowded, and they are walking one after another.
The southeast wind brings the hot sunshine, stirring up the leaves and dust...
And in the distance, to the east of Baihuafu City, on the road more than a day's journey from the East Gate.
Walking among the fleeing people,
A middle-aged man was walking drowsily.
Suddenly, the man's vision went dark and he threw himself forward and fell to the ground.
When he fell down, a kind person immediately came to help him.
"Are you okay?"
"A little... dizzy, it's okay..." the man who fell to the ground said, holding his forehead.
The two of them looked around, only to find that there was a large area of space around them.
They are isolated!
The man seemed to be someone who knew what was going on in the city, and he smiled and shouted: "Everyone, it's okay, the epidemic broke out very quickly, and the bodies had already been burned by the city officials.
We have been away from Fucheng for more than a day. If any of us had the disease, it would have struck long ago. As of now, no one has contracted the disease.
It's okay, don't worry...cough cough cough...cough cough cough! ! "
Before he finished speaking, a series of coughs suddenly came up.
He subconsciously covered his mouth with his hand, but suddenly he felt an extremely itchy feeling on his neck.
The man next to him looked at him in horror, then suddenly let out a scream and ran away like a plague.
The man touched his neck, but he only felt a fleshy, hot, deformed lump...
...
From Baihua Mansion to Xiongshan County, it actually takes three and a half days by normal travel.
And the same scene is happening everywhere on this road.
It is obvious that this epidemic strikes very quickly. It stands to reason that the faster the disease occurs and the higher the fatality rate, the less contagious it should be.
However, at this moment, this truth is being subverted.
Even those who successfully escaped from the city were still infected with the disease, contracted the disease inexplicably, and kept dying... It was as if evil spirits flew out of the dying city and were chased by the wind from afar. These people who try to escape will have their lives harvested wantonly.
...
...
When Li Xuan came to the front of Bantian Gorge, something seemed quite wrong behind the triple-rejection horse fence.
In the afternoon, various roars were heard in the canyon, as if evil spirits were grinning.
Master Li shivered, holding a sword, and almost ran away on horseback.
Seeing his son coming, Mr. Li hurriedly shouted: "Xuan'er!"
From a high place, Wei Yao also looked down at Li Xuan. She was holding a large bow in her hand, and placed several barrels of arrows on one side, two of which had been shot.
Obviously, the refugees on the opposite side had tried to attack, but were driven back by Wei Yao's arrows.
Li Xuan waved to her.
Like a flying kite, Wei Yao fluttered between several huge rocks and landed in front of Li Xuan. Before she could ask any questions, she saw Li Xuan hand over her.
She took over.
Li Xuan pulled her onto the horse and sat close to her, one behind the other.
As if being electrocuted, Wei Yao tightened her hips and wanted to move forward.
Li Xuan hooked her waist to prevent her from moving, and shouted to Father Li: "Dad, you go back to the city first, my son is here to watch."
Master Li was about to say something when Li Xuan winked at him.
Master Li understood instantly and stopped asking, saying, "Son, be careful."
Then he withdrew.
After Master Li withdrew for half a cup of tea, the movement on the other side of the canyon became more intense, and a group of refugees planned to attack the outermost horse fence again.
But the Li family's martial arts master and the government servant were facing each other with their bows.
Li Xuan summoned the leading martial artist here, He Du, and gave a few instructions in a low voice: "Get ready to retreat. Get on your horse quickly and retreat into the city."
The leading martial artist and Dutou nodded one after another.
After once again repelling the onslaught of refugees, everyone suddenly mounted their horses, then turned around and rode away without asking for any supplies.
The refugees immediately rushed across the horse-rejecting fence, but they were so huddled together that they couldn't keep up.
Everyone withdrew into the city in one fell swoop.
The four city gates were closed.
Xiongshan County is closed!
...
...
A few days later.
On forest trails, yellow sand roads, canyon gravel roads, everywhere... mummies are either dead or still struggling.
In the past, there were young gentlemen and young ladies going on an outing, and the roads with the jingling bells of oxcarts have now become a scene like hell on earth.
The refugees galloped towards Xiongshan County, but Xiongshan County closed its gates, so they turned north and headed towards Chiyue County.
Others crossed Xiongshan County and headed to many small villages in the suburbs...
The sky was clear, and crows were circling with strange cries.
The circle finally settled and stopped in front of a mummy that was beginning to rot. He pecked it down and down again with his pitch-black beak, eating this free feast...
Half a day later, the crow, which had already flown far away, suddenly twisted wildly in mid-air for some unknown reason.
In Xiongshan County, a baby pointed curiously in the air and shouted: "Mom, that bird seems to be dancing."
His mother went to see him.
Sure enough, the crow was like a black dancer in the air, "scratching its head and posing" as weirdly as possible, and then suddenly "popped", fell from the sky, and landed on the... street of the busy city.
When the wind blows, the undetectable aura of disease is lifted from the crows and spreads to the surrounding area...
