The next morning, Jiang Qing and Yu sneaked into Baishui City at dawn.
As long as they entered, Imperial Physician Wei could not stop them even if he wanted to. He would kill them first and then show them off.
Entering along the path, the city is full of desolate scenes.
The streets were covered with a thick layer of leaves. There were ruins everywhere and overgrown weeds. Those houses that had been uninhabited for a long time were again occupied by vegetation.
There wasn't even a crow in the sky above the city. I knew they loved carrion the most.
Bodies wrapped in cotton mats could still be seen vaguely on both sides of the street, and the air was filled with a strong smell of sour rot mixed with the smell of weeds and mud.
Some of these corpses have turned into loess, and some can still show their pre-birth body shape from the bones.
Jiang Qingyu stopped in front of a relatively complete corpse. It had been dead for about four or five years. Some of the flesh on the body had rotted into mince and the stench was unpleasant.
Most of the time, this person accidentally entered the white water and became seriously ill and died there after being unable to get out.
After looking at the corpse, Jiang Qingyu took out a piece of white cloth and wrapped it around him. He sighed in his heart and said, "This city is really an empty city. There are not even birds or mice."
Onibuchi said humorously: "There are still cockroaches."
Jiang Qingyu: ..."What a cold joke."
The ghost messenger said that there was something strange about the City God's Temple in the southeast. The fallen leaves under their feet rustled, and a few people lifted their feet and walked toward the southeast of the city.
At the same time, at the inn outside Baishui City, Doctor Wei was holding on to the wall, furious and hysterical: "What a fool! You are such a fool! What kind of place is Baishui City, and you dare to sneak in?!"
Song Wu and Zhou Shuning lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything. Zhou Shuning was okay. Doctor Wei was an elder to her.
Song Wu, on the other hand, went from being angry and afraid to speak out to feeling aggrieved and numb.
Because of her successful cultivation, she had decided on her appearance early, and her face did not look like she was in her early twenties. In fact, she was the same age as Imperial Physician Wei.
After a while, Dr. Wei's words were all dry. Zhou Shuning saw the opportunity and comforted her: "Xiaoyu and the others will come out safely. Mr. Wei, you have to believe in their strength."
Dr. Wei said sincerely: "It's not that I don't believe them, it's just that there are countless diseases in Baishui. If they go in and get seriously infected, the Queen will never take them out for treatment!"
"Five years ago, a man accidentally broke in and contracted severe smallpox. He had to wait for death in the city. I——"
Zhou Shuning stared blankly at Imperial Physician Wei, who was leaning against the wall and slowly falling to the ground. Then she looked at Song Wu, who had made a crisp move, and silently gave a thumbs up.
Since their identities cannot be revealed, they have been listening to Dr. Wei's chatter all morning, with Zhou Shuning going in one ear and out the other, not to mention Song Wu, who is not very patient.
"Someone help me, Doctor Wei has fainted!" He yelled at the door, and two strong men immediately ran in and helped him back to the room to lie down.
Zhou Shuning made the diagnosis, "The doctor Wei is in a state of emergency, but he is fine for the time being. He needs to rest for two days. I have prescribed medicine for him. You go and get the medicine."
The prescription is naturally a tonic for calming the mind and nourishing the body. I hope that after this incident, Imperial Physician Wei can understand the reason why excessive qi damages the liver.
At this time, in Baishui City, Jiang Qing and Yu had arrived at the City God's Temple. There were wisps of demonic air floating outside the City God's Temple, which mortals could not see.
Guiyuan raised his hand to collect several different strands of disease energy and put them into jade bottles to seal them. This thing was the real source of the disease.
The Chenghuang Temple smells of decay everywhere, the smell of corpses accumulated in mass graves.
Jiang Qingyu called out the alarm and decided to fight quickly.
At this moment, the door of the City God's Temple was suddenly blown in, and the surrounding demonic energy rioted. It hit the three of them crazily, but was crushed by Jiang Qingyu's pure energy.
A hoarse voice came from the Chenghuang Temple: "I didn't expect that this poor and remote place could welcome distinguished guests. It's really strange..."
This sound is really unpleasant, just like the sound of the erhu beginners pulling the strings but unable to make out the syllables.
Yayin Powu was in hand, and he and Elder Guiyuan took a step forward at the same time, blocking Jiang Qingyu from behind.
Even though Jiang Qingyu has entered the intermediate stage of becoming a god after leaving the Sea of Mermaids, among her peers, she has long become an unattainable existence.
As her cultivation level increased, her physical body was also continuously refined, and the advantages of her demigod body were already revealed.
No matter how high her cultivation level is or how powerful she is, in their eyes, she is just a child who has just grown up and needs protection.
Within the seal, a person's whole body was wrapped in white bandages. The exposed half of his face was extremely old, as if his essence had been sucked out. The skin was wrinkled and attached to the bones, but the one eye exposed was extremely young, as if it were ten years old. Xiao Huo, who is seven or eight years old, has violet eyes that are exclusive to the demon clan, and is very charming.
Through the cracks in the sealed land, he could clearly see the situation outside, but he didn't intend to waste the strength he had finally accumulated for a moment of freedom, and he didn't intend to struggle to strengthen the seal?
Then reinforce it, it will break one day anyway.
Anyway, he can't be beaten if he goes out. He is probably the most miserable one among the twelve demon generals. Others are sealed in the world of spiritual cultivation. Only he is like an exile, trying to secretly absorb some spiritual power and convert it into demonic energy for cultivation. no.
What? Can demons only use demonic energy to practice?
Who said that? Don't be kidding, in ancient times when chaos was born, the gods and demons were the first races to be born, and chaos was a mixture of various qi. The gods and demons at that time had the same qi, but for the gods, the spiritual qi was better absorbed, and the demons could absorb it better. So is the clan.
For demons, abundant demonic energy is the best cultivation environment. If there is no spiritual energy, spiritual energy will do the trick.
But the plague demon is really unlucky. The seal is in the corner, and there is neither demonic energy nor spiritual energy. Fortunately, he can still use the spread of the plague to practice. Otherwise, even his beautiful eyes cannot be saved, and they will be muddy and vicissitudes of life.
So instead of doing useless work here, why not wait for the great Demon God to wake up and lead everyone to break through this abominable seal, now? He might as well save some energy and sleep.
Presumably after today, the seal has been strengthened and he can't even release the disease. When the source of power is gone, he will become an old man again. No, he has to conserve his power!
Jiang, Qing, and Yu looked at the half-opened and half-closed door, and for a moment they couldn't figure out what the plague demon was planning. The greeting just now was made by the plague demon, but he sounded very weak.
Yayin stopped Jiang Qingyu, "I'll go in and take a look first."
He walked slowly into the City God's Temple with his sword in hand. After a moment, he said, "There is no ambush, come in."
Jiang Qingyu and Elder Guiyuan looked at each other, and both saw doubts in each other's eyes.
After entering the City God's Temple, there were spider webs everywhere inside. Except for a golden statue of the City God lying on the ground, there was nothing else in the temple. The stools and tables were all eaten into dust by insects and ants.
