Outside Fugu City, there are hundreds of miles to the north deep in the mountains.
There are two villages with the Zhou surname located near here.
Those with high terrain are called "Shangzhou Village".
The low-lying ones are called "Next Week Village".
There were originally more than 130 households in the two villages.
The original site of the village is a hundred feet away.
The path leading to the village has been covered by overgrown weeds. The burly black man is dressed in coarse Gebu clothes and has a sharp hatchet stuck in his waist. The dense weeds half a man high are all covered by the attack of the hatchet.
Fall down and make a path.
The black man took the lead, followed by the man in Confucian shirt.
Not long after, a strange face set foot in this deserted village, two or three years after the epidemic.
There is no one inhabiting it, and there is no sound.
The original houses of the common people were not popular for a long time, and were eaten by insects and ants. They also collapsed under the erosion of wind and rain. Finally, they were covered by unbridled bushes and covered with greenery. This scene is inexplicable.
Gives birth to a chill.
The dark man wiped a handful of sweat casually.
Put the hatchet back on your waist.
"Sir, this is the former Zhouzhou Village."
An epidemic broke out in two villages and they were closed down. More than 130 families died in the end, leaving only a dozen families and about 20 people alive. The previous county guard was worried that the disease was still lurking in the village, so he sent people to forcibly remove the survivors.
The common people moved to other villages.
Zhouzhou Village and Zhouzhou Village were forcibly closed.
The young man frowned, looked around, and raised his hand to clear away the stale air on the tip of his nose: "Shou Sheng, you and I have a look around."
The burly black man who was called "Shou Sheng" nodded in agreement.
These two people were Gu Chi and Li Li who came to investigate the epidemic village. "Shou Sheng" was the name given to him by Li Li's wife. Li Li's family name was "Lu" and he did not have a formal name, so the wife named him
He took the word "Jue", which means "Shou Sheng".
From "Finally going over the edge is unexpected."
It also has the implication of finding a way out of desperate situations.
Lili is actually a nickname.
It was a little love affair between him and his wife.
Now that he has a serious name and nickname, the nickname "Li Li" is not suitable. Gu Chi and others directly call him by his nickname.
Li Li, that is, Lu Jue, did not dare to go too far away from Gu Chi, and the abandoned village was not big. It only took the two of them a quarter of an hour to walk around and found nothing out of the ordinary.
Gu Chi said with an indifferent look, "Go to Zhouzhou Village to have a look."
Lu Jue still took the lead.
After a while, the two figures gradually disappeared.
About half a quarter of an hour later, two figures appeared in the corner of the ruins of the previously empty shabby house. The two figures were haggard and haggard, their faces were covered with greasy dirt, and their long hair was stained with yellow and white dander. Although their clothes were old, they could be seen.
Exquisite workmanship.
There was lingering anger on one person's face.
Seeing Gu Chi and the others leaving, he scolded them angrily in a low voice.
"Why didn't you kill him just now?" He wanted to stab Gu Chi in the back several times with a knife. The two were only three steps away! As long as he moved quickly, Gu Chi would definitely die!
But the person next to him was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he stopped him.
"If I could kill, I would have killed him long ago!"
The problem is that Gu Chijin is very vigilant and always on guard! If he can't kill him with one blow, they will be the ones who die.
"Afraid of death!"
"Who do you think is greedy for life and afraid of death?"
However, what the two did not expect was——
"Is this epidemic caused by you?"
An unfamiliar and indifferent male voice quietly reached my ears.
The two of them were so frightened by the voice that they didn't follow the voice to see who the male voice was, and ran away in the opposite direction for their lives. One of them even used the spirit of speech to assist.
"Can you escape?"
Sure enough, before the two of them could escape far, they were thrown away by the entanglement of Wen Qi rising from their feet. Another strong black figure blocked their escape path. It was Gu Chi and Lu Jue who had just left. The two of them had not had time to come.
Desperate, Lu Jue picked up a person's neck with one hand like a chicken, gathered strength and threw him to the ground.
He rolled on the ground several times and rolled to Gu Chi's feet.
As for the other person?
Lu Jue kicked him directly in the knee.
Remove the opponent's chin.
He threatened in a cold voice: "If you dare to run away, I'll cut off your tongue!"
Gu Chi came up with his sword in hand and glanced at the man with disdain. The blade of the sword was pressed against his throat: "I thought he was some kind of person. He was just a half-hearted scribe. It is rare to be in such a state of poverty. Tell me how you spread the news.
Disease?"
"Pooh!"
He spat a mouthful of smelly saliva.
Obviously he refused to cooperate with Gu Chi.
"Hahaha, you want to know? I'll tell King Yama, not you, the thief's lackey!"
When he was about to die, he still wanted to disgust Gu Chi, but Lu Jue was not a good-tempered person. When he saw him humiliating Gu Chi, he raised his hand and slapped him. Bang! The slap made this man's head buzz, and his head was almost hit by this...
The force was slapped down from the neck.
The sky and the earth rotate, and the colors are reversed.
Snaking little red snakes flowed out of the ears, nostrils, and corners of the mouth. He instantly lost his hearing, and it took him a long time to regain his strength.
Gu Chi said: "Keep alive, don't beat him to death."
He is only good at plucking secrets from the mouths of living people.
It becomes difficult to operate when the person is dead.
"Don't worry, sir, you will never strike with caution."
Death will not die.
At least he won't die for a while.
It took little effort for Gu Chi to use his spirit of speech to extract the secrets from their mouths - as expected, the two of them were the "fish that slipped through the net" of several local gangsters in Fugu City.
They hold a grudge and always want to kill Shen Tang.
However, Shen Tang managed Fu Gu better and better, and the people came to support them. They tried several times without success. They could not instigate the people to live in chaos, but they almost exposed themselves. They were not willing to go far away, so they stayed nearby.
Lingering, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Zhoushou Village and Zhouzhou Village have been abandoned for many years.
Normally no common people would come near.
Very suitable for hiding.
Just when they were cursing the heaven and the earth, God seemed to answer them. After the beginning of summer, there was a heavy rain. The rain in the middle of the night washed away a certain tomb, revealing the pit of corpses buried under the tomb.
The corpses in the corpse pit were the common people who died of the last epidemic. Seeing this, the two of them came up with a vicious idea to spread the disease from the corpses to Fugu City! Even if they couldn't kill Shen Tang in one fell swoop, they could still take revenge on the heartless people. The righteous Fugu people.
These common people depend on their family for their survival, and they deserve to be punished after their family's defeat.
Relying on their ability to protect themselves, they collected the carrion bugs from the corpse pits, fed them to the captured rats, and threw the rats into the well water connected to the treatment center.
Then I sat back and waited for the good news.
So, the epidemic in Fugu City is caused by them?
After hearing these words, Lu Jue was so angry that he wanted to open a window in their heads with his fist. Do these bastards know how many people will be killed by the outbreak of the epidemic? How cruel and crazy! They can do such a thing! He was so angry that his cheeks were tense, Both eyes glared.
The anger is so strong that people dare not look directly at it.
Compared with him, Gu Chi is much calmer.
He is not surprised!
These people who once lost their glory and wealth and fell into the quagmire never put the lives of the common people in their eyes. They only vented their inner hatred and implicated everyone they thought deserved. Killing everyone in the house if they are displeased is inhumane. It can be said.
If a disease is released, only the common people and enemies will die.
They feel happy when their enemies die, but when common people die?
Can the lives of common people be counted as fate?

This month’s fan title event has started.
It's outrageous, I actually wrote about Lili's name and village. That's it for today. There are still two thousand words missing. I will make up for it on Sunday (I will definitely succeed this time)!
