Chapter 681 Catching a turtle in a urn

 Xia Qianqian makes quick moves.

After catching all the poisonous insects in the corpses, as a precaution, they sprayed enough egg-killing powder on each corpse.

After everything was processed, half an hour passed.

Geng Zhong ordered people to seal the place. Seeing the girl's face looking tired, he hurriedly led her to the Qing tent carriage, "It's late at night, girl. I'll take you home to rest first."

Plague, poisonous insects, Feng Wei who is absconding, Xia Chi whose life and death are unknown...

Everything is as heavy as a mountain, weighing on Xia Qianqian's heart. How can she sleep when she returns home?

"Geng Zhong, let's go to Xicheng District."

"But girl..." Geng Zhong was embarrassed, "His Royal Highness asked his subordinates to take you back home."

Xia Qianqian shook her head, "Over there in Xicheng District, there are more patients and the spread of the epidemic is unknown. Mr. Liu is getting old and it is inevitable that he will be overwhelmed. I will go and help him."

Geng Zhongchu was there and did not move.

"Hurry!" Xia Qianqian got into the car and urged: "If you don't sleep one night, no one will die. If you sleep one night, many people may die."

Which one is more important, everyone knows clearly.

Geng Zhong no longer persisted, turned around, jumped on the cab, waved his whip and drove towards Xicheng District.

Behind the carriage, there was the sound of horse hooves.

Xia Qianqian lifted the car curtain and looked back. Xia Chengan was following closely on a tall horse.

She lowered the car curtain, leaned on the soft couch, closed her eyes and meditated.

In the Ruyi Bracelet, various modern and advanced machines are analyzing the cellular components and DNA sequencing of the Gu worms at hundreds of thousands of calculations per second, trying to find out where the eggs of these adult worms are.

Cultivated in seed culture medium.

The amount of investigation work is huge, and she must think of ways in advance to narrow the scope of the search as much as possible.

Thousands of thoughts came to her mind, and she peeled them off one by one, making various assumptions, overturning them, and presenting them in new ways. Repeatedly, the thoughts in her mind gradually became confused.

Today, she is really too tired.

The carriage was swaying along the gravel road. She tilted her head, unable to resist, and fell asleep.

……

Ding ding ding......

Suddenly an alarm bell rang in my head, and an unbearable burning sensation came from my wrist.

She woke up from her sleep, exclaimed, raised her sleeves reflexively, and blew heavily into the hot spot on her right wrist.

"Girl, what's wrong?"

Geng Zhong, who was at the cabin of the car, heard the noise, raised the curtain, and looked at her worriedly.

My heart was beating wildly, not only because of the pain in my wrist, but also because of the message conveyed by the Ruyi Bracelet.

Those Gu insects are actually related to the plague...

Xia Qianqian turned her head and said with a pale face, "Geng Zhong, hurry up, let's go find His Highness."

"Yes!" Geng Zhong has been with the girl for a long time and knows her temperament well.

She can remain calm and composed when encountering big things.

If you lose your composure at this moment, I'm afraid something big has happened.

……

In a certain courtyard in Xicheng District, the sound of swords clashing and the sound of fighting resounded throughout the sky.

In the courtyards everywhere, people in every household closed their doors and windows.

Some people are wrapped in quilts during the dog days of summer, some are hiding in boxes and wardrobes, and some are hiding in cellars with their old and young children...

Everyone looked horrified, trembling all over, and too frightened to speak out.

Public security in Xicheng District has always been poor. Swearing and beatings occur frequently day and night.

Chaos is the most appropriate word to describe Xicheng District.

It is common for people to see people, but they have never been so panicked and on tenterhooks like today.

In the afternoon, officers and soldiers wearing armor, carrying swords on their waists, and holding long contradiction signs swarmed in and surrounded Xicheng District.

On every street, there are people from the government.

At every street corner, there are soldiers standing guard, with solemn expressions and bright eyes.

No one knows what happened.

As the sun was about to set, unusual news came out from among the beggars.

There is plague, spreading, in Xicheng District, among everyone who may have a high fever.

The crowd was panicked.

People wanted to escape, but found that officers and soldiers guarded every entrance and exit, and they had nowhere to escape.

When people are in panic, everyone can only run back in panic, shrink back to their own territory, and wait for the development of things.

Who would have thought that after dark, the sound of fighting would come from nowhere.

The sharp screams cut through the night sky and hit everyone's heart hard.

Those who attempted to abscond were deterred.

Some brave people bent over and lay in the cracks of doors and windows, peeking out secretly.

Wherever you look, you can see the dark night, the stars in the sky, the shadows of trees turning into strange beasts in the wind, and the dancing demons.

Tonight, countless people are shocked and unable to sleep.

"Pa!" A group of golden-armored guards kicked open the dull door and rushed into the courtyard.

From the hidden corner, several black figures rushed out, and the swords flashed and pierced straight towards them.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The blade struck the golden armor, sparks erupted from the impact, and in an instant, it fell apart, split into two halves, and fell to the bluestone floor with a crisp sound.

Feng Wei, surrounded by a group of strong men in black, looked at the intruding gold-armored guards with red eyes. He picked up the sword in his hand and roared, "Go to hell."

In an instant, the room fell into a chaotic fight.

The golden-armored guards beside the wise king were famous and their strength should not be underestimated. In just one stick of incense, most of the strong men in black in the room were cut down.

The fighting between the two sides was in full swing, from inside to outside the house.

It's late at night, and red torches surround the small courtyard, and the firelight shines like daylight.

Feng Wei's eyes turned red, and when he turned around, he saw a young man in a navy blue brocade robe standing at the door. Under the firelight, his eyes were cold and his expression was calm.

Although he was clearly facing a fighting scene, he seemed to be watching a play, with a calm composure and a noble appearance.

In this way, it highlights his embarrassment even more.

"Ji Zimo!" He called out through gritted teeth.

Ji Zimo's eyes were indifferent, "In the battle at Fanshan, I spared your life as a last act of kindness to our childhood friendship. It won't happen this time."

"Childhood friendship?" Feng Wei stared at him as if he had heard a big joke: "How can we have any childhood friendship?"

"You are the son of the emperor, the proud son of heaven, and I am the son of a subject. From the moment we were born, our status was destined."

"Between kings and ministers, there has always been only utilization and submission."

"I..." he gritted his teeth and said: "From the beginning to the end, I am just an accompanying student, a minister, and a traitor."

Mentioning the past, he was filled with sadness and asked, "What is a study companion?"

He laughed dumbly and said: "Keep your preferences in mind."

"We had a close friendship when we were children. It was the result of my careful flattery and flattery. Now I am the son of a traitor and a rebellious minister. It's really... funny that you want to have friendship with me."

He emphasized the last two words.

When he said this, his eyes flashed with determination.

He suddenly reached out and took out a signal bomb from his waist, raised it above his head, and said with a ferocious smile: "Ji Zimo, do you think you have won?"
