There was another loud cough in the room, which seemed to cough up all the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.
Du Wenwen was so anxious that he stood up and was about to rush in.
"Stop!" the man shouted while coughing, "What did I say?"
Du Wenwen was so anxious that he almost burst into tears, "Master said I can't go in, but...but..."
"Just be obedient."
The coughing sound still doesn't stop.
Du Wenwen stamped his feet anxiously, "Master, I'm going to buy medicine for you. I'm going to buy medicine now..."
He hurriedly ran towards the door. He was a small man with a big head, and he bumped into the steel frame of the person he was wearing.
Du Wenwen couldn't help but fell out, "Ouch!" he said, touching his butt aggrievedly and looking at the person coming, "Who is it?"
The light fell on the other person's back, reflecting his rickety figure.
The visitor's clothes were soaked and his head was lowered. He was the shopkeeper of Kushui Shop. Behind him, Yu Tianqing and Bai Yunshen came in at the same time.
"Is it you?" Du Wenzhang suddenly shouted, "Old man Chang? Why did you bring them here?"
There was a suspicious voice in the room, "Chang Buyun? Who did you bring?"
The shopkeeper of Ku Shui Pu, Chang Bu Yun, still used his muddy and deep voice, "Two foreign guests happened to be outside, so they came in together."
"Old man Chang, you shouldn't have brought anyone here."
"Everyone has his own destiny, and there is nothing that should come or not come."
Chang Buyun said as he threw the jade pendant in Du Wenwen's hand to Yu Tianqing, "Take the things and leave."
"Huh?" The man in the room suddenly woke up and said loudly, "Du Wenwen, what exactly did you do?"
"I...I..." Du Wenwen wrung his fingers and hesitated to speak.
Chang Buyun sighed, "He just wants to buy you more medicine. Why do you care about him like this?"
The people in the room were silent for a while, and then they let out a long sigh, "I just thought that I should be stricter with him while I'm still alive, so that one day when I'm gone, he can still maintain his righteousness and follow the right path."
"Master..." After hearing this, Du Wenwen suddenly burst into tears.
Yu Tianqing has always been kind-hearted, but he couldn't help feeling sad. He asked softly, "I wonder what disease this friend has. Is there anything we can do to help?"
"Thank you for this girl's kindness." The man in the room said, "But my life is over, so there is no need to bother."
It is really surprising that a living person can be so calm when facing the end of his life.
Chang Buyun, who was standing aside, took two steps forward and seemed to murmur, "Sometimes, things that should be troublesome still have to be troublesome."
The man laughed and said, "Always replenish your luck. You are replenishing your luck, not your life."
Chang Buyun grinned and laughed hoarsely, "If you can mend your luck, you can mend your life."
Chang Buyun said to Yu Tianqing and Bai Yunshen, "If you two are willing to trouble, you might as well come with me."
On top of the high wall, the night wind was biting.
Under the city wall, there is a desert flat land. At this time, it is empty and deserted. Not long after, suddenly, there was a coughing sound in the distance, and several birds frightened the forest.
The atmosphere unexpectedly began to freeze.
Immediately afterwards, in the woods not far ahead, five ordinary people came. They supported each other, took two steps, coughed for a while, and staggered, making the journey difficult.
When you can't walk more than a hundred steps and are halfway to the city wall...
'Zixi...' A strange electric current suddenly shone unexpectedly under the dark curtain.
Yu Tianqing couldn't help but exclaimed, "This is..."
Under the high pressure, the bones of the five figures suddenly appeared, but in the blink of an eye, they all collapsed to the ground.
Bai Yunshen, who was holding his sword beside him, was also horrified.
"Why is there a huge power grid here?" Bai Yunshen couldn't help but ask.
Chang Buyun lamented and said, "This is to isolate the infected villagers."
Yu Tianqing asked in shock, "Infected villagers?"
"That's right." Chang Buyun said, "A few months ago, some villagers drank the water near Xifengdu and began to fall ill. At first, they were weak, then gradually began to have difficulty breathing, and finally they started to cough."
Yu Tianqing remembered the situation just now and couldn't help but said, "Just like the five people just now?"
"Yes." Chang Buyun continued, "At first it spread from person to person, and later even the livestock at home were not spared. By the time people were panicking, several surrounding villages had been infected. Large swaths of people died. "
When Chang Buyun said this, he couldn't help but sigh, "Human life is always not worth mentioning before natural or man-made disasters."
Bai Yunshen asked, "Is there any medicine to cure it?"
Chang Buyun shook his head, "There is no cure. Even doctors are infected."
"Isn't this a plague!" Yu Tianqing exclaimed.
Chang Buyun looked sad, "So, the city lord ordered a huge power grid to be opened in this desert place to warn the infected not to get close. Even so, it is always forbidden."
"Everyone has the desire to live." Bai Yun sighed deeply,
"Yes, but it shouldn't be built on the basis of endangering other people's lives." Yu Tianqing's eyes showed sadness, and she sighed with sadness on her face, "A wall of life and death, two extremes of yin and yang."
"That's not the most serious thing."
"Is there anything more serious?"
"It always rains all night if the house leaks." Chang Buyun added, "The sources of infection include not only water sources, air, living animals, but also land."
Bai Yunshen frowned immediately, "If even the land is infected, even defending this city wall will be useless."
"Yes, yes." Chang Buyun half-chanted, half-recited, "As the saying goes, all things have life and death, and the world has its destiny."
Bai Yun thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "What is the source of this infection?"
Chang Buyun replied, "I have to ask Master - I am absolutely clear."
Yu Tianqing reacted very quickly, "Yi Qingjue, is he the man in the room just now?"
Chang Buyun nodded, "In order to investigate the source of the disease, he went to Xifengdu alone. When he came back, he fell ill."
Yu Tianqing said, "His symptoms are very similar to what you said. Could it be that... he is also infected?"
Chang Buyun said, "You are right."
"Oops!" Yu Tianqing exclaimed, "What about Du Wenwen? Isn't it dangerous to be in the same room with him?" Yu Tianqing suddenly said, "So, Yi Qing will never let Du Wenwen get close to the back room. To isolate him from the disease."
Seeing her worry, Bai Yunshen comforted her, "Since Yi Qingjue has personally been to the infection site, he presumably has a certain understanding and grasp of the virus. Since Du Wenwen is not infected, there must be something wrong with it. You don't have to worry too much."
Yu Tianqing calmed down, pondered for a moment, and suddenly raised his eyes to meet Bai Yun's deep eyes, both seeing the association in the other person's pupils.
"I'm afraid this matter is not simple."
Bai Yunshen nodded in agreement, and then said to Chang Bu Yun, "It seems that I have to trouble you to take us to see Yi Qingjue."
Chang Bu Yun chuckled and said, "That's exactly what I meant. Those who supplement luck will never misjudge the person."
