"Found it?!" Huo Yingwei was very excited, "Where is it?!"
The county magistrate said: "She was found in a small house in the south of the city. We originally wanted to bring her to you, but she said she couldn't follow you because she didn't know you."
"Yes, yes..."
Huo Yingwei murmured.
Le Fan must have lost his memory, otherwise why wouldn't he go home?
This is the only explanation that is the most reasonable.
Little Baozhu used her hands and feet to climb onto Huo Yingwei's knees, "Dad, let's go find mother!"
"Take us there quickly!" Huo Yingwei stood up immediately.
"Okay! The carriage is ready outside, waiting for you to go!"
The magistrate's carriage is already waiting downstairs.
Before getting on the carriage, Huo Yingwei hesitated a little.
Although, the direction in which they came was measured by the little orb.
But it only took one day to find the person, which was a bit...
"Daddy, hurry up!" Xiao Baozhu hugged Qiqi, extremely excited.
Facing Xiao Baozhu's eager look, Huo Yingwei calmed down and got into the carriage.
Whether it is true or false, you will know after just taking a look.
Moreover, he was confident that the county magistrate alone would not do anything to him.
As the carriage moved forward, the number of people in front of them gradually became fewer and fewer.
This is very strange.
Although he was still in the city, another city gate appeared in front of him.
There are guards guarding both sides.
"What's going on?" Huo Yingwei asked.
"Your Majesty, you don't know. There is a city within a city. This is the characteristic of our Hongcheng."
The magistrate got off the carriage and said, "Open the city gate!"
Just after giving the order, he turned back and said with a smile: "My lord, the woman you are looking for does not have a good opinion of me. In case... you should go in by yourself."
Along the way, Huo Yingwei had heard enough of his nonsense.
It’s good to hear a few less sentences now.
He waved his hand, indicating that the county magistrate did not need to follow.
He held the little orb and walked in.
Before he could see what he saw clearly, the city gate closed behind him.
A gust of wind blew.
Xiao Baozhu subconsciously hugged Huo Yingwei tightly.
Although they are in the same place, why is this city within a city so deserted?
There was no one in sight.
Even if the people here like to be quiet, isn't it too quiet?
Little Baozhu was a little worried, "Daddy."
"Don't be afraid of Baozhu." Huo Yingwei squeezed her little hand gently.
There is nothing in this world that he cannot handle.
He wanted to see what the hell he was up to.
"Ouch... Ouch..."
He took a few steps forward.
Huo Yingwei heard someone groaning.
He looked towards the place.
A man is falling to the ground.
It was that person who made the moaning and groaning sounds.
"Dad, he seems to be uncomfortable." Little Baozhu said kindly, "Let's go over and take a look."
Just as Huo Yingwei was about to go over, he saw someone holding a rope and trying to put it around the man's neck.
Blue sky and white sun, are you planning to kill people? !
"Stop!" Huo Yingwei shouted, "What are you going to do?!"
The man who was tying the rope raised his head and said, "Where did this rude man come from? Of course I dealt with him, otherwise what would he be doing?"
deal with?
This word is used...
The person tying the rope seemed to have noticed something, "You're not new here? How did you get into this damn place?"
"Isn't this a city within a city in Hongcheng?"
The man smiled bitterly, "A city within a city is a place where people who have been infected by the plague are blocked off and left to die."
Huo Yingwei captured the word plague.
"What plague?"
"You really don't know?"
Only then did Huo Yingwei notice that the man had a thick mask on his face.
And the man on the ground... was simply too miserable to look at.
His eyes rolled white, his whole body twitched, and his exposed skin was covered with black spots.
While they were talking, the man on the ground was no longer breathing.
"Oh, another one dies."
The people who set up ropes seemed to be used to this kind of thing.
Huo Yingwei sensed a hint of danger, "What's going on?!"
"What's going on? It's the plague!"
The man began to speak.
After the flood in Hongcheng, a plague broke out.
People infected by the plague will have red eyes, black spots on their bodies, and severe pain all over their body. Within three to five days, they will convulse and die.
If you are lucky enough, you can survive for ten or twenty days.
As soon as the plague was discovered, the county magistrate of Hongcheng ordered the construction of this city-within-a-city.
It was said to be a city within a city, but in fact, it was nothing more than driving people infected with the plague in and letting them fend for themselves.
And he was the unlucky person who was sent to bury the bodies to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
There were only a few words, but Huo Yingwei's hair stood on end.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that there were such bastards in the world!
Without even giving a chance for treatment, these people are left here waiting to die!
"You two, father and daughter, don't look sick to me. Why did you come in?"
After the man finished speaking, he sighed again.
"I'm coming in. I'm afraid I won't be able to get out for a while. Please wear a mask. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you wear it or not. I am the only brother who came in with me."
There was numbness in his eyes.
Huo Yingwei gritted his teeth.
He was indeed deceived.
There is no Le Fan at all in this place.
He just wants him to die here so that he has no worries!
but……
Huo Yingwei's eyes turned cold.
This alone is enough to trap him.
It's a bit too contemptuous of him.
Huo Yingwei thanked the man and left with the little orb.
Realizing that he was going back, Xiao Baozhu refused to follow him.
"Baby girl, it's dangerous here, we have to leave." Huo Yingwei coaxed her patiently.
Xiao Baozhu said anxiously: "But we haven't found our mother yet!"
Seeing her eager look, Huo Yingwei couldn't bear to tell her that there was only death here and there was no mother at all.
Xiao Baozhu doesn't think so.
She raised her gaze and said, "Dad, we finally found it all the way here. What if my mother is here?"
Little Baozhu's tears fell down.
As long as there was a glimmer of hope of finding her mother, she didn't want to give up.
Huo Yingwei couldn't resist her, so he agreed to go to the place mentioned by the county magistrate.
"If not, go back to dad immediately. Don't be willful, do you know?"
"Okay!" Xiao Baozhu promised, "I will be good!"
Huo Yingwei walked forward holding the little treasure.
Along the way, apart from the two people just now, I saw no one.
This is simply like a dead city.
The address the county magistrate gave them was in the far south.
Huo Yingwei couldn't describe his feelings for a moment. He didn't know whether he hoped to find it or not in this place.
The goal is getting closer.
When approaching the small courtyard, Huo Yingwei heard some sounds.
