Along the way, wherever the disaster relief army led by him passed, the people cheered and jumped for joy. Why did the people in Liting Town avoid them like snakes and scorpions?
In one of the carriages, a slender hand lifted up the window curtain.
Young Master Li poked half of his head out, covered his mouth and nose with a black handkerchief, and looked around, his brows furrowing tighter and tighter.
Everywhere in Liting Town is empty. White soul-calling flags or white paper lanterns are hung in front of every door, and the black word "Dian" is very eye-catching.
The setting sun was setting, and the light orange light shone on everyone, but it could not penetrate the heavy 'dark clouds' that enveloped their hearts. The horse's hooves stepped on the bluestone filled with sewage, making a 'pattering' sound.
Gu Yunshu's nose was slightly itchy and he noticed something strange. He put his fingers together and crossed his eyes. The illusory silver light waves centered on him and rippled in all directions.
Opening his eyes, what he saw made his pupils shrink.
The empty streets and alleys were filled with thick blood-colored mist, and gray afterimages passed by from time to time.
When Shangyi Chenhao and a large group of people passed the corner of the street, they saw two figures, one big and one one small, nesting together under the cattail arbor on the left, setting up a bonfire and grilling meat.
There were two dark horses rushing outside the shed, one of which struck Shangyu Chen and others as oddly familiar.
Nowadays, the plague is rampant, let alone Jiangdu. Along the way, they have never seen the people so safe and comfortable.
"You two, eat quickly, we have to continue our journey."
The familiar voice entered everyone's eardrums, and their eyes widened.
As we got closer, we finally saw clearly the boy in white clothes, the girl in pink clothes and the young monk in light brown robes.
The rich fragrance reached the tip of their noses, and everyone involuntarily rolled their Adam's apples up and down, looking over there.
"Where did you guys come from? How dare you stay outside so blatantly? Are you not afraid of death? Go back quickly!"
A government official shouted loudly in the direction, but received no response.
Shang Yuchen turned to look at Gu Yunshu, who nodded, turned his horse and walked towards the shed.
The shed was made of straw and straw, with several large holes in it. Fortunately, the foundation was relatively high and water did not seep in, so the ground inside was relatively dry.
Those three people were quite courageous and quite capable of dealing with them.
"Is it delicious?"
The boy in white sat with his back to the outside, listening to the voice behind him, his eyes full of smiles. He picked up the roasted meat that was sizzling with oil from the campfire rack, put it in front of his nose and smelled it.
He turned to look at the man on the horse behind him.
There is no covering up on the three faces of them, and their clear faces are directly exposed to the public.
"Mr. Dongli, the freshly roasted pigeon meat is very fragrant! Would you like a bite to enjoy?"
Su Zhen's smile was the same as before, with a carefree and uninhibited look.
"..."
"Don't say anything? Are you planning to become a vegetarian in the future? Do you want to stop thinking about it and follow my little monk to eat fast and chant Buddha's name?"
Gu Yunshu ignored her remarks and just continued to sit on the horse condescendingly, looking back at her.
Tao Yongji didn't know Su Zhen's identity, but they seemed to know each other, and he was not in a hurry to drive Su Zhen and the others away. "This young master, I have never seen you before. You must have come from outside before the city was closed."
.Now that the plague is raging, it’s better for you to wear a scarf.”
"Well, sir, we are all here. If we could be infected easily, we would have been infected long ago. Since Mr. Dongli doesn't want to eat it, why don't you try it?" Su Zhen smiled mischievously on her lips.
"..." Tao Yongji looked at Shangyu Chen, wondering, "Your Highness, look at this..."
Shangyu Chen looked up at the sky and said to the young man in white under the shed, "Bring it to me to try."
"Tsk, our prince still has a good idea! Well, this is a good thing."
Su Zhen stood up and walked towards Shang Yuchen. When she stepped out of the shed, the sewage under her feet automatically dispersed to both sides. After she walked past, it returned to its original state.
Therefore, the lower hem of her clothes and white cloth boots were not stained at all.
This scene shocked most people, and Jin Lian was also convinced that the scene they saw in the restaurant a few days ago was indeed Su Zhen.
Gu Yunshu's eyes followed her, and when she passed by him, the pigeon meat in Su Zhen's hand was snatched away by Gu Yunshu.
Facing those cold eyes, only she could understand the suppressed meaning in his eyes.
"Mr. Dongli, there's only one left, and it's not enough for you to share!"
Gu Yunshu was silent and threw the pigeon meat back, and Shangyu Chen reached out to catch it tacitly. Seeing Gu Yunshu's thin lips pursed into a straight line, Shangyu Chen, who was well versed in habits, immediately guessed something, but he still stood in front of everyone
Pulled off the face towel.
In the plague-ridden Liting Town, such an action was tantamount to seeking death, and even Pei Lixin, the commander of the Taiyuan Hospital, was a little frightened.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince! No!"
"It's okay."
Shangyu Chen took a bite without caring... his expression suddenly changed!
No wonder Gu Yunshu disliked it, it was really hard to hide, and the bitter taste almost made him spit it out.
"Xiao Zhenzhen! You finally showed up. We thought you died on the road!" Young Master Qi opened the carriage curtain. Although his words contained a curse, it was not difficult to hear his joy.
"Mr. Qi, I haven't seen you for a few days. You are still as energetic as ever." Su Zhen said with a smile.
"..."
Young Master Li hated to hear anyone say he was old. Seeing his expression change, Shang Yuchen swallowed the extremely unpleasant pigeon meat and spoke up in time to prevent the two from fighting in the street and causing trouble again.
He did not throw away Su Zhen's pigeon meat, but said in a doting and helpless tone, "Okay, Zhen'er, calm down and stop making trouble. This is not a place suitable for small talk. Now that you are here, don't leave."
If I am alone, I might be able to come up with a cure for the plague sooner."
"That's okay! But... Your Highness, aren't you curious about where my pigeon meat comes from?"
"..."
Shangyu Chen's expression changed, but he saw Su Zhen grinning, "Don't worry, you won't die."
"..."
Most of the Xiao Jiajun knew what happened to Su Zhen and Xiao Chuhong, but the rest of the officers and soldiers and the government officials in Liting Town did not. After hearing this, they immediately drew their official swords and pointed them at Su Zhen.
Su Zhen touched her nose and raised her eyebrows at Gu Yunshu. The aggrieved voice made her scalp numb and gave rise to goosebumps.
"Jun Dongli, your people scared me..."
Yuzhu was originally thinking about the mechanical wooden ball in his hand. When he heard Su Zhen's numb voice, his hands trembled and the wooden ball almost rolled into the bonfire. He hurriedly kicked it out with his feet.
Mo Shen lowered his head and covered his face, trying to pretend that he didn't know her.
Young Master Li lowered the car curtain, and Jin Lian turned his head away silently. Even Tang Yinchen and Yang Huanzhi, who originally wanted to show up to meet Su Zhen, also hid themselves again.
For a moment, the situation was extremely embarrassing. This chapter has been completed!
