A few days later...
Although Xiongshan County was closed, people began to die on the streets, and blood-curdling screams were heard from time to time in the east, south, west and north of the city.
The Li family, who had completed preparations for closing the city and prepared for a protracted war, heard the news and immediately sent people to investigate.
Everyone was confused by this discovery.
The city was closed, but the plague spread in somehow.
And as soon as it was passed, it exploded directly. The speed was so fast that almost the front foot breathed a sigh of relief, and the hair on the whole body stood up on the back foot.
Almost all the Li family members already know: Soon, Xiongshan County will become another Baihua Mansion.
The lady held the rosary beads in her hand, kept twisting them, recited Buddhist sutras, and prayed for the blessings of the great and compassionate Bodhisattva.
The second lady looked frightened, holding Li Zhili's hand, and gathered in the master's study at a loss, not daring to go anywhere.
But Mr. Li didn’t know what to do.
Mr. Li has been to the front line, and on the front line, he has really seen the tragic death of those infected with the epidemic, and he also knows how terrifying this epidemic is.
"Master, what should we do? What should we do? Do we want to leave the city?" The second lady was crying and confused. She was not at all as domineering as when she beat Li Xuan's second brother violently.
On the contrary, Li Zhili said loudly: "Mother, you must not leave the city at this time!
Xiongshan County is not Baihua Mansion. Baihua Mansion was the first city where the plague broke out, so they could still escape.
But now that our Xiongshan County has fallen, let alone the surrounding counties that have not closed the city.
If you leave the city, there is only one way to die. "
Master Li glanced at his second son with relief.
This judgment is reasonable.
However, he was also scared and irritable at this time, so he shouted to the servant outside.
"Seal the door! Seal the door quickly!"
"Wait a minute, come back, is the grain in the granary still in the granary?"
The servant hurriedly responded: "Still."
"Still there?"
Master Li slapped his forehead and said painfully, "Why can't you move to my Li's house?"
Previously, the Li family's response was to "fight the epidemic throughout the city," so it was normal for the grain to be in the granary; but at this moment, Mr. Li has turned "the whole city" into "the whole family."
That's going to kill you.
The Li family has food that they can't eat for several years, but the food is not in the Li family's home, but in the granary.
But if you want to go to the granary, you need to go outside to get it.
If you go there once, you won't be able to get much food. It will take at least a day to transport it.
But the devil knows what’s going on with the plague outside.
But if we don’t take it today, what if this plague lasts for a year and a half? What do the Li family eat? Will you risk running out to get it then?
The servant waited and asked, "Master, what should we do?"
Mr. Li said irritably: "Close the door first, close the door well!"
The servant hurried down.
...
...
In Li Xuan's small courtyard, Tian Yuan, Wei Yao, Qiangwei and Qiao'er were also gathered.
Among the four girls, except Qiaoer, the other three are actually quite calm.
A thoughtful look appeared on Tian Yuan's pretty face, and she said for a long time: "We have actually sealed the city in time, and according to the rough outbreak time of the plague given by our husband, there should be no infected people sneaking into the city, so... there is only one explanation.
People die, but the epidemic does not.
Not only is it immortal, the disease can also be spread by wind and birds. "
Wei Yao blew a breath, blowing the bangs that hung in front of her forehead to fluffy and flying, and then suppressed her slightly unhappy mood and said: "It's not like the wind. If the wind could be contagious, I would have caught it a long time ago." On."
Tian Yuan said calmly: "The wind alone may not carry it far, but if there are people infected with the epidemic nearby, then it will be fine.
The gates of our Xiongshan County were closed early. It seems that birds and fishes brought the disease in. Now that it has infected people, it is very difficult to deal with it. "
Su Qiang's waist was hung with "scent sachets", "gourds" and "evil-proof jade pendants". Nuonuo said: "What Sister Yuan said makes sense. Master, Sister Yuan, what should we do?"
what to do?
What else to do?
After doing this, it actually spread to Xiongshan County.
What else are you doing?
Li Xuan knew that this matter was completely out of control.
If he doesn't do something, the Li family will definitely be doomed.
But to what extent can the disease be transmitted by the wind? No one knows this. But in theory, anyone who appears outside can be tricked.
And with this speed and intensity of infection... is this a wave of annihilation of humanity?
Li Xuan was completely unbelievable.
Things in the world are impermanent, and this is what happened! !
The plans, scripts, and preparations in his mind were suddenly overturned, and he had to turn to another path - survival.
Li Xuan's face was ashen, but he had already made a decision.
He said: "Wei Yao, you hold the quilt and lead my wife into the cellar, and don't go out after that."
There is ice in the cellar, as well as food stored by the Li family. Hiding inside and sealing off the outside, as long as the body can hold on, nothing else will happen.
Wei Yao stood up solemnly, without saying anything, and quickly tied the sheets and quilts into a small mountain, and then carried them behind her back.
Tian Yuan took Li Xuan's hand and said, "Ms. sir, you can come too."
Su Qiang was wiping her little pearls behind her and looking at Li Xuan with tears in her eyes from time to time.
Li Xuan smiled, wiped away Su Qiang's tears, then looked at Tian Yuan seriously and said, "I will meet you later."
Tian Yuan said: "I will always wait for you."
After the four girls left, Li Xuan immediately went to the study and informed his parents, mother and brother, telling them not to wait and to go to the cellar quickly.
...
After doing this, Li Xuanfei got on the roof of Li's house, looking into the distance with a pair of eyes full of thought.
Outside the Li family, there was chaos.
And soon, the Li family is likely to be in chaos.
Even the most loyal servants and maids will be crazy at the moment of life and death. Even if they are not crazy, they will never be able to bear the pain of the epidemic. After all, Li Xuan has witnessed the pain with his own eyes, and even Liu Yingyi cannot bear it at all.
Nowadays, the daily laws are failing, and it looks like the beginning of the end of hell...
Who dares to believe that it was all because of the red shadow monster at Luoshi Gate that bit a few people? ?
What the hell!
Li Xuan calmed down.
Now, there is actually only one thing he can do, and that is... [raise ghosts].
He remembered that all ghosts followed the will of the previous demon named "Tiger Demon Tai Sui".
In other words, the ghosts he raises will naturally obey his will.
Living people cannot move around in diseased areas, but what about ghosts?
Can ghosts be allowed?
If ghosts could.
Then... ghosts will replace living people, protect the Li family, and at the same time bring food and water to the people hiding in the Li family's cellar.
However, Li Xuan couldn't make up his mind.
He didn't hesitate much when killing people because of conflicts or eliminating risks.
But he really has a big psychological barrier when it comes to attacking innocent people.
The Tian family had planned to harm the Li family before, and he only singled out those who knew about the Tian family and killed them. If they were unaware, he never touched them. Therefore, the head of the Tian family died, but the eldest wife of the Tian family sold her family property and escaped alive.
At this time, his cold reason was telling him that it was better to turn the maids and guards of the Li family, and even the ordinary people around the Li family, into evil spirits.
In this way, no one can break into Li's house as the evil spirits guard him. And he can also hide in the cellar safely, and then the evil ghost he raises will bring him tea and water. If he wants, he can just order "takeaway".
However, his feelings told him that doing this... was different from that of a real demon?
What's more, the Li family has many servants, maids, and guards, all of whom he knows. How could he possibly succeed?
Li Xuan sat on the ridge of the roof, clenched his fists and patted his forehead. He decided to give himself a stick of incense and time to think.
When the time comes, if he doesn't convince himself and doesn't think of other reliable ways, then...that's all he can do.
Monsters will be monsters, cruelty will be cruelty, it is better than the tragic death of a family member! !
...
...
"Ah sneeze!"
Mr. Li sneezed and muttered, "It's so cold here! Madam, why do you think Xiaoxuan's kid has to be moved here?"
In the candlelight, ice cubes were piled up, strips of frozen meat were hung on hooks in the distance, and there were piles of old wine in the corner.
Tian Yuan, wrapped in cotton clothes and sitting on a big wicker chair, stood up in a hurry and explained her previous judgment.
"Spread by the wind? And it's so deadly... I'm going to die!" Mr. Li was frightened, and then said, "Then why doesn't Xiao Xuan come in? What can he do outside alone?"
With that said, Mr. Li suddenly looked at Wei Yao and shouted: "Yaohua, go and help your young master."
Wei Yao said: "Following his arrangements and staying here will be the greatest help to him."
Master Li said: "The young master of the Qin family can't beat you, why can't you help him?"
Wei Yao remained silent and did not speak.
Master Li was stunned by this silence.
The eldest lady was also stunned.
The eldest lady looked at Qiangwei.
Qiangwei blinked and said, "Yao Yao, do you know something?"
Wei Yao said no more.
The eldest lady pulled Master Li and ran away, reminding her softly: "Master, how can Xuaner He De make Miss Wei listen to him so much?"
Mr. Li was somewhat enlightened and said the unfamiliar word: "Secret Martial Warrior."
He rolled his eyes and lowered his voice: "Madam, you said that Xuan'er is also a secret martial artist, and is more powerful than Yaohua..."
The eldest lady covered his mouth and said, "It's better to listen to the children's arrangements."
Mr. Li nodded, then bared his teeth and rubbed his hands together, saying, "It's too cold."
...
...
The time for burning incense is coming soon.
Li Xuan stood up coldly.
This time, he deliberately stored the demonic blood of the "Deformed Monkey" in the second grid.
Then, when he puts the demon blood of "Tiger Demon Tai Sui" into the first grid, the magic of "Ghost Raising" will become stronger.
He had done a test before. If "Strange Monkey" was placed in the first grid and "Tai Sui" was placed in the second grid, then... the illusion dummy he created would be born with a copper head and iron arms. It would look normal, but if I used swords and guns to chop it down, but it was invulnerable.
Now, it's [Raising Ghost]'s turn.
Li Xuan was about to inject the demon blood of "Tiger Demon Tai Sui" into the first square, when his expression suddenly changed because he saw someone knocking on the door of Li's house.
No!
Not one person, but a group of people!
He looked carefully and saw the leader clearly. Who was that person if he wasn't Liu Yingyi?
