"Master Jun, you will die if you go back. There is a ghost inside."
When the guests refused to go back, the leader drew his sword and chopped one of them, cursing: "If you don't go back, you will die now!"
The guest had no choice but to turn around and go back.
"Lock this inn and don't let anyone out!"
After saying that, the leader hurried to the general's mansion.
Because Zhennancheng is located in an important border town, there is no prefect here. Instead, the guard general is concurrently responsible for the duties of the prefect. At the same time, there is a herdsman Sicheng who is responsible for government affairs.
Guard General He Mengqing was enjoying the cool air in the backyard, with a beautiful girl singing beside him and two maids fanning themselves. .??.
There was no war in Zhennan City, and He Mengqing was very free. He left the government affairs to Sicheng and enjoyed himself.
"General, Lieutenant Colonel Long is outside asking for a meeting, saying that he has urgent matters."
A maid came in to report.
He Mengqing felt upset and cursed impatiently: "It's dark, why don't you let me clean up?"
A servant came in with a pot of water to make tea. He Mengqing was irritated and said, "Give me the water."
The servant brought the kettle to him. He Mengqing took a few sips, threw the kettle aside, put on his shoes, and strode out.
The Hou Yamen are his family members, wives and concubines, and official affairs are handled by the Front Yamen.
When I arrived at Qianya, I saw the school captain Long Wei.
"General, it's bad, Zhaoren poison has been found in the city."
As soon as they met, the school captain Long Wei already talked about poison.
He Mengqing thought it was about arresting thieves, and was so frightened that her face turned green.
"What? Why is there poison? Aren't we strictly preventing Zhao people from entering the city? Where is it?"
Captain Long Wei had a big head and said: "Many people have died in Zhennan Inn, and the symptoms are like poison."
Just as he was talking, two catchers hurried in and shouted breathlessly: "Captain, it's not good, poison has appeared in many places in the city, it's everywhere, and many people have died."
He Mengqing grabbed the headman and shouted: "What? The whole city is here? If you dare to speak nonsense, I will kill you!"
Gongsun Mingqian urged Wan to be on guard against Zhaoren's poison, but unexpectedly something happened.
"That's right, that's right, little one. Pfft"
The catcher suddenly sprayed a mouthful of blood on He Mengqing's face, causing her body to fall down. He Mengqing was so frightened that he shouted: "Come here, strong wine, strong wine!"
School Captain Long Wei was so frightened that he backed away and did not dare to approach He Mengqing.
The head catcher who fell to the ground was bleeding and festering rapidly. His body was still struggling, and he was already dead.
"General He, you."
"I'm fine, I'm fine, give me strong alcohol to kill the virus, quickly."
He Mengqing walked towards Long Wei, who was so frightened that he ran away and shouted: "Don't come over, the general has been poisoned!"
He Mengqing wiped the black blood on his face, ran back to the back office in a hurry, and shouted: "Strong wine, strong wine."
Mrs. Xu hurriedly came out with her maid. Seeing He Mengqing's face covered in blood, she asked in shock: "What's wrong? Zhaoren is here to kill?"
The Xu family thought that the Zhao people were invading, but He Mengqing did not dare to say that she had been sprayed with poison.
"Strong liquor!"
Seeing that He Mengqing was angry, Mrs. Xu hurriedly ordered to bring strong wine.
He Mengqing grabbed him and fell head-on.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
A little boy came out and asked with concern.
Seeing her son, He Mengqing was suddenly stunned and shouted: "Don't come over, I'm infected with poison, stay away from me and take good care of Xiaoyu."
Xiaoyu is the nickname of He Mengqing's son.
"What? Poison? How could this happen?"
Mrs. Xu felt that the sky was falling. The maids and servants around her screamed in fright and moved away as if they had seen a ghost.
"Daddy."
The little boy started to cry. He didn't know what poison was, but he could feel the fear of the people around him, and he was frightened.
Mrs. Xu picked up the little boy and cried loudly: "What can we do? How can we do this?"
He Mengqing gradually calmed down and shouted: "Everyone, listen up, seal off the backyard, spray it with strong alcohol immediately, and do as King Wu ordered."
"You are not allowed to eat raw or cold food, everything is cooked and boiled, and you are not allowed to have contact with people outside the house."
"I must go out and take a look and ask Jinling for help."
After saying that, He Mengqing glanced at his wife and son again, knowing that he didn't have much time.
Zhaoren's poison is so powerful.
Gritting his teeth, He Mengqing turned around and left the back office and walked to the front office. The body of the arrester was still there, and his clothes were soaked in blood.
"Someone is coming!"
He Mengqing shouted loudly. Someone stuck their head out, but no one dared to step forward.
He Mengqing was furious: "Come out here for me, I'll support you with the royal food, now you're all going to rush forward for me!"
Scolding and scolding, when it is a matter of life and death, no one dares to do it.
"Where's Captain Long!"
He Mengqing shouted loudly, and his men retreated one after another. No one came forward to answer.
He Mengqing had no choice but to ride out of the house on her own.
Not far away, I saw a fire on the east side, and people were wailing in the street.
"Help. My mother is vomiting blood. Poof."
"Save my son."
"Daddy."
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
His ears were filled with shouts for help, and He Mengqing felt like his head was buzzing.
It was fine during the day, but why did Zhenna City suddenly turn into hell at night?
what happened?
"General, general."
A group of patrolling soldiers ran over and stopped He Mengqing.
"How is the situation in the city?"
He Mengqing saw blood on the soldiers and knew that these people would not live long.
"We are all going to die, General."
The soldier was crying and laughing as if he were crazy.
"General, we don't want to die. We still have wives and children, and we still have parents."
"General, please ask the imperial court for help. Please ask the imperial court to save us."
"Let King Wu come over. King Wu knows how to save us."
As the begging continued, He Mengqing saw more and more flames and knew that things were out of control.
"Don't panic!"
He Mengqing shouted loudly and said: "Follow me to patrol the city!"
He Meng Qing rode in front, followed by soldiers.
There were constant cries and howls coming from the rooms on the street, and people kept rushing out of the rooms.
"Help, help me"
A woman rushed out, stumbled and fell to the ground, her body oozing blood, crawling on the street with her hands, and a little girl chased her out: "Mother, mother"
"Don't come over, flowers, don't come over, mother"
The little girl threw herself on the woman and cried.
He Mengqing looked at the little girl, his heart was twisting in a knife, the woman was dead, and the little girl could not be saved.
"General."
The soldier behind him finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Let's go back and see our family for the last time, and then we're leaving."
When they are about to die, they don't care whether they have generals or not, or whether they have a court or a court.
He Mengqing watched the soldiers leave and rode on for a few more streets. The roads were full of crazy people.
Some were infected and struggled desperately; some were not infected, but were frightened by their family members and ran for their lives crazily.
There was chaos in the city.
Zhenna City has completely lost order and has collapsed.
"It's impossible."
He Mengqing rode back to his house, but all the people inside had fled.
After lighting the candle, He Mengqing picked up the brush, her hands trembling.
He was also afraid, he was also afraid of death, but there was nothing he could do.
"A general is not afraid of danger and puts life and death at risk."
Taking a deep breath, He Mengqing unfolded a piece of paper and wrote:
The last general, He Mengqing, would like to report to Mr. Gongsun who is staying in Jinling. Tonight, Zhennan city suddenly broke out with the Zhao poison poison. The poison is very serious. Corpses are scattered all over the ground. The last general is incompetent and unable to control it. He begs the court for reinforcements. It's urgent! It's urgent! It's urgent! It's urgent!
After putting away the paper and inserting the reed pipe, He Mengqing walked to the Xin Ying in the General's Mansion.
Tied to the leg of an eagle, He Mengqing picked up the red paint, smeared it on the leg, untied the rope, and released the eagle overnight.
Watching the Xinying disappear into the darkness, He Mengqing returned to the front hall and sat down.
Leaning on the seat, He Mengqing already felt dizzy.
"As a general, you should die on duty and you must not leave without permission."
