Peerless Protégé [Rebirth]

Before they arrived at Hufeng Town, news came that Bai Zhiqiu and Huo Pingsheng had been arrested.

The masters of the six sects chased them for two days and one night, and finally caught them both. It was not easy, but it was a pity that Luo Jiening didn't see how they arrested them, it was just a waste of time. Da Jin killed many people, so he sighed for a while.Zhong Zhili could only comfort him and said: "It's okay, we can still see them when we finish our work quickly and go back."

Holding the sword, Luo Jiening ran in front of him and walked back facing him, "No, no, no, how long do you think you can keep such a big disaster? In my opinion, running away once is enough for them."

Nan Qingwen disagreed with his opinion, and retorted: "I think, with Wuchenxuan's heavenly net, plus some illusion or Gu skills on him, how could the two of them escape."

Luo Jiening really had never heard such a funny joke in two lifetimes, he couldn't breathe from laughing immediately, and pulled Zhong Zhili to death, Zhong Zhili hugged him and didn't let him roll on the ground, he straightened up Waist said: "Stop teasing me, Bai Zhiqiu and the Zhu family have broken off friendship, Huo Pingsheng is the No. 1 solution to Gu, tell me, who can mess with them?"

Nan Qingwen was surprised: "How do you know?"

Luo Jiening ignored his ignorance, and said: "However, if it's really the two of them, the entire rivers and lakes will be turbulent because of the two of them, and we'll just stir up the muddy water twice to get wet. If not, then That's all."

Duan Wan sneered and said, "Then what happened? What happened? Tell me."

Luo Jiening said: "If someone is pretending, Lanyue is useless in his hands first. Speaking of which, he is also a descendant of the Shen Yun faction, just bluffing. If Huo Pingsheng is a fake," he suddenly looked at him in the middle of speaking. Xiang Nan Qingwen teased, "As you said, Gu skills are enough."

Nan Qingwen blushed half of his face after being ridiculed by him. Yang Tianming asked strangely, "When did junior become so serious? I'm not used to it."

Luo Jiening stepped forward and pinched his legs twice, cursing: "Are you used to it now?"

Yang Tianming was pinched by him so much that he pinched him back. Nan Qingwen looked at the two pinching back and forth, and said coldly, "How old is it?"

Nan Wang: "That's right, how old is it?"

Zhong Zhili didn't intend to step forward to pull Luo Jiening over, nor did he realize how shameless their behavior was in the eyes of the disciples of the Qing Pavilion, so Duan Wan stepped forward and gave Luo Jie Ning kicked and scolded very badly: "Restrain me a little!"

Luo Jiening fell on Zhong Zhili and complained: "Why did you kick me. Zhong laughed at him for bullying me."

Duan Wan pulled him off Zhong Zhili's body, and scolded: "What do you guys look like! My old lady kicked you to death!"

Luo Jiening squatted down with his head in his arms and shouted, "Killer!"

The people around were amused by him, they didn't even know that they had entered Hufeng Town, they only vaguely saw a few people rushing towards this direction in the distance, Zhong Zhili was the first to react, and said: " who are they?"

Luo Jiening looked over, those people were running barefoot with disheveled hair, they were still shouting something, they opened their arms and waved, and ran straight towards the people here, Luo Jiening's sword had already been unsheathed, stepped forward and asked : "Who are you?!"

None of those people answered, they were just crazy and inhuman, Luo Jiening didn't dare to kill people casually, he just glanced at Duan Wan, and Duan Wan swung his hand out, several people were hit by bone powder and couldn't move.

Luo Jiening put away his sword and stepped forward to observe, only then did he see that there were strange purple spots on the faces of these people, one piece by one irregularly spread all over the whole face, it looked particularly terrifying and creepy, only these people had expressionless faces and eyes Their eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and their eyes were wide open, as if they were about to pop their eyeballs out. Luo Jiening patted their faces, and they were already stiff and cold, not like the faces of living people.

Nan Qingwen asked from the side: "Could it be a plague?"

Luo Jiening frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

The man didn't answer, but his eyes widened even wider, as if he wanted to eat him.Luo Jiening drew out the sword, slowly pointed at his heart, and smiled: "Who are you?"

The man still didn't answer, Luo Jiening's sword approached inch by inch, almost touching the lapel of his chest, Luo Jiening smiled: "Don't say it? If you don't say it, I will kill you."

As soon as the words fell, Fuguang had pierced into the man's skirt, and a trace of blood seeped from the skirt, staining it red. Seeing that he still had no intention of speaking, Luo Jiening just wanted to back out of Fuguang, but felt The wrist was squeezed hard, the sword was sent forward, only a muffled grunt was heard, and blood spurted out. Luo Jiening was still in a daze, but he had already been pulled a few steps away. He looked back and saw Zhong Zhili wrinkled His eyebrows were a little displeased, and he asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

The group had all retreated a few steps away, Duan Wan clicked her tongue and said, "It really is a plague."

Luo Jiening suddenly smelled a rancid smell, held his breath and said, "It looks like I've been poisoned, isn't the plague contagious?"

Duan Wan turned her head and said speechlessly: "Yes, otherwise why do you think Zhong Xiao is pulling you?"

Luo Jiening asked: "But why did you kill him?"

The person in front of him has already fallen to the ground, and the limbs of the rest of them have already started to move. Luo Jiening's heart is not good, and the bone powder can't stop them. This shows that there are not many living things in their bodies, at least the internal organs have begun to move. Rotten, belongs to the half-dead state with only the body left.

Luo Jiening said: "It's an illusion."

After finishing speaking, he raised his wrist, raised his sword, and several people fell to the ground. Then he asked, "Will the plague be spread after death?"

Duan Wan gave him a white look: "You don't know why you killed them?"

"Of course I'm afraid of getting infected with the plague." Luo Jiening held his breath and looked forward, the purple spots on the faces of those people became more and more obvious, as if the entire face was painted with thick paint, and it was quite funny, Zhong Zhi Li also came up to take a look, and said, "There's something wrong with their blood, it's too dark."

Luo Jiening had noticed before that the man's blood seemed to be darker in color than fresh blood, and it looked like clotted blood.There is no response to talking to him. If it is not caused by illusion, it must be manipulated by others.

Several women in the Qing Pavilion put on veils and stepped forward to observe the corpses carefully, then took out a large piece of stuff from the belly of the corpse, Luo Jiening hurriedly jumped forward to look, Duan Wan held the I don't know what the big bloody thing was, Luo Jiening took out the flagon at his waist, and then suddenly remembered that this flagon contained blood, so he stopped and stretched out his hand to look at his waist from the south. He took out the kettle in the middle of the day and poured all the water on the piece of dirt, and it was clean enough. Luo Jiening looked down and saw that it was a pack of herbs.

The fine burlap bag contained a large package of herbs. Although it had been soaked in blood so that the inside could not be seen clearly, when it was scattered, the finely divided leaves inside had not rotted and were very fresh, which meant that this package of herbs was not placed not long ago. , it was changed not long ago, and, based on this, these people should be under the control of this pack of herbs.

Duan Wan was surprised: "This bag of herbs is so useful? What is the method?"

Luo Jiening looked back, and there was no one behind, and they all walked far away, he said: "I don't know, but it's not impossible, we have already arrived in Hufeng Town?"

Duan Wan wrapped up one of the herbs, and all the group retreated.

Hufeng Town is located in the Linhai area of ​​Yangzhou. As the saying goes, relying on mountains to eat mountains depends on water to drink water. Hufeng Town is famous for its seafood. The villagers who live here all year round make a living from fishing. Going to the sea to catch fish and sell fish is what they do most of their lives. However, high returns are accompanied by high risks. If a tsunami occurs, the death will be horrific.

After passing the lunatics in front, I don't know what danger lies ahead. Luo Jiening felt that the plague came at the right time, just in the critical period, and if the Japanese invaded, it couldn't be said that it was impossible. Fishermen generally have some business dealings with the Japanese, and conflicts are inevitable. However, conflicts occur when the language barrier occurs, and it can be said that there is nowhere to vent. Violence.

It is not uncommon for foreigners to bring diseases and spread them locally, and it is not a new thing in the coastal area. It happens from time to time, because foreigners must go ashore to do business, so if they bring diseases, they will definitely die. infect the locals.The local government usually just piles up the infected people and disposes of them for the sake of peace.But this time the commotion seemed to be relatively large, and even the government couldn't handle it. It seemed that there was something else hidden.

A group of people entered Hufeng Town, and saw a group of people in front of the gate of the official mansion. The group of people were all tiger-headed and fierce. Those who didn't know it thought they were warding off evil spirits and suppressing ghosts in front of the door, but it was a pity that the curse came out of their mouths. The words seemed to be a bit too much, the gate of the government office was opened for a moment, and a few men dressed in official clothes came out, holding iron bars in their hands, they picked them up and started beating them.

Luo Jiening stood far away watching the show, looked south and was about to step forward, but Luo Jiening grabbed his belt and said: "Just watch, don't be impulsive."

Nan Qingwen said: "Looking at it like this, I'm afraid it won't be a day or two."

Yang Tianming smacked his lips and said, "What kind of consequences can they cause? These people really have no brains, and it's not a plague spread by the government."

Luo Jiening said: "The government is right, but these people are angry in their hearts, and they have to find a place to vent their anger, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to hold it in, don't you think?"

After all, he looked at Zhong Zhili and passed the question to him cleverly.Zhong Zhili was noncommittal, just looked at him and said nothing, Yang Tianming disagreed and said: "How can this be, don't do to others what you don't want, don't they know?"

Luo Jiening showed an innocent smile, stood next to Zhong Zhili without saying a word, Nan Wang was still being pulled by his belt, and said dissatisfiedly: "You let me go."

Luo Jiening let go obediently, Zhong Zhili took his hand cooperatively, and said, "You are obedient."

Nan Wang listened to Zhong Zhili's words very much, and when Zhong Zhili said it, he immediately fell silent.Duan Wan asked: "I said, we are going to enter the government, look at this, how long will we have to wait?"

Chang Fengsu said: "I don't think these people will be infected with the plague. I don't know how long it will take to ask the government to get justice here. Why don't we go elsewhere first?"

A group of people were about to leave, at this time only one person shouted suddenly: "If you don't complain about injustice, what is the government!"

Luo Jiening stopped abruptly when he heard this sentence, and quietly listened to what they had to say next.

Another person shouted: "Everyone in the town is sick, let me see how long you can last!"

Luo Jiening thought to himself, what does this mean?What does it mean not to appeal for grievances?Could it be that these people still have any grievances that have not been cleaned up?How can it be called injustice if he is infected with the plague?As soon as those people yelled like this, the people in the government cursed back: "I said that it has nothing to do with the government, and if you make trouble again, it will be the same!"

Seeing Luo Jiening not following, Duan Wan ran to his side and asked, "What's wrong?"

Luo Jiening said: "In my opinion, things are not that simple."
