Chapter 129 Epidemic Ghosts(1/2)
Yizhou is located in the northwest of Chengdu Prefecture. It travels along the Minshui from Du'anyan to the Heishui River in Yizhou. The total distance is about 400 miles.
Wu Qi took the water-avoiding beast to snorkeleton and arrived at the Heishui River two afternoons later.
The sun is very strong, making the two sides steam hot and fishy.
At the mouth of the river, soldiers patrol, and official boats with flags were paraded on the river surface, forbidding ships to enter and exit the Heishui River. I also pulled iron cables and net ropes to the point inside, and the entire river surface was blocked.
Wu Qi landed on the bank of a hidden river.
Across a distance, he recognized Qing Qiang wearing a hat. Qing Qiang held a knife made of moshui shells and listened to the two soldiers saying something by the river with a gloomy face.
He cursed for a few words, and the two soldiers hurriedly jumped into the water and disappeared in an instant.
It turned out to be two water monsters.
Wu Qi took Chongyang and Li Mi over.
"The Demonic Handsome."
Qing Qiang turned around and saw that it was Wu Qi. His face turned worries and joy: "Master, you are here, come, come quickly, have a cup of tea under the shade of the tree."
Wu Qi was led by Qing Qiang to a tree by the river.
The accompanying soldiers poured Wu Qi and Li Mi a cup of cold tea, but they were a little hesitant to see the fire in Chongyang.
He asked carefully: "Does this guardian use a cup?"
"He doesn't need it."
Wu Qi declined: "No need to worry."
The soldier then left.
Qing Qiang took a sip of tea and complained to Wu Qi: "The Taoist priest doesn't know that the situation in Yizhou is really difficult. Eight days ago, I received an order from the Si Duwei and came to investigate the epidemic..."
Jianyouwei's insight into the epidemic in Yizhou was earlier than Wu Qi thought.
Long before Xu Shujing sent Cheng Sanyuan, the Dragon Girl of the Shui Shui sent another servant to the local area to investigate the secretly.
Shi Ming sent the news back in time, saying that there were indeed malignant epidemics in Yizhou and scattered in various villages.
People infected by the epidemic have a characteristic: they all saw strange duck-drivers in the middle of the night.
At the third update, two men in black drove hundreds of ducks to wander in the wild. They passed by the village, went up the mountains and into the water, and were circling around, and their behavior was strange.
Weishan County, where the Yizhou Prefecture Prefecture is located, sent a lot of servants and soldiers to the villages where the epidemic occurred to be blocked, but more and more people were suffering from the epidemic.
Duck-drivers appear more and more frequently.
One night, a group of soldiers happened to meet these two duck-drivers. They held spears and shouted to let them stop.
As a result, the two duck-drivers ignored them and continued to walk forward, hitting the spear in their chests.
After the collision, the black clothes torn apart. It turned out that the two of them had ducks inside their bodies, and they were sturdy in their human form.
Without the duck driving man, the ducks immediately fled.
The soldiers tried to surround them with fences, but found that the ducks could not be locked up at all. They could squeeze out from any gaps and stab them with swords and guns, like they were stuck in cotton.
The next day, all of this team of soldiers were infected with the epidemic.
So everyone realized that the duck-driver was transformed by the plague ghost.
The verification of Shi Ming and Cheng Sanyuan is generally consistent.
The Dragon Girl of the Shui River immediately sent Qing Qiang to lead the team and rushed to Yizhou from the water road to kill the epidemic ghost.
After Qingqiang arrived here, he first ordered local officers and soldiers to block the Heishui River, and every pass was forbidden to prevent the epidemic from being brought to other places through ships and travelers, causing a larger spread.
At the same time, he also sent demons to search for duck-ridden people around the river.
"After following them, I took action myself, and I killed the duck-drivers and ducks from a distance, sprinkled quicklime wherever they passed by, and forbidden to get close to them."
"But unexpectedly, they appeared again the next day. Their number became larger and they were divided into several teams and appeared in several villages in Yizhou. Two of them rushed to Weishan County, but fortunately they were killed by the servants in charge."
Speaking of this, Qing Qiang sighed: "So I realized that the duck-driver is not an illegitimate ghost, but an accomplice."
Wu Qi frowned when he heard this.
The so-called accomplice is a ghost born after being killed by a ghost. He is enslaved by a ghost, also called a ghost servant.
The accomplice drives away the epidemic, but the plague ghosts behind it are still missing. As long as the plague ghosts are not removed, the accomplice will be born continuously and the plague will not be eliminated.
Nowadays, the number of gang members in Yizhou continues to increase, which shows that there are still many unidentified deaths from the epidemic.
"The endless killing may also make the plague ghosts behind me more alert. I really have no clue about this."
Qing Qiang looked annoyed and slapped the knife in his hand hard: "It's really annoying to be powerful."
Wu Qi thought about it briefly and had a plan.
"Demon Soldier, when was the latest infection infected person discovered?"
"This... Last night, a woodcutter came home with firewood. When he arrived home, he found a duck on his back. The doctor checked and confirmed that he was infected with the epidemic. This should be the latest patient."
"Take me to see this woodcutter. There is a way to try it out and maybe find clues."
Patients with mortality were placed in a village, with fences in front, back and left and right of the village, with horses resisting horses outside, and soldiers guarding every import and exit to prevent anyone from entering and leaving at will.
The soldiers all covered their faces with a bath washed with potion, and their expressions were serious.
Qing Qiang showed his identity card, and then they lifted the horse and gave way out.
When Wu Qi walked into the village, he heard coughs one after another, all of which came from the small wooden houses and mud houses in the village. The soldiers came and went in the village. They forbid patients from leaving the cabins, and the village was filled with a heavy sense of tension.
"here."
Qing Qiang pushed open a door and signaled Wu Qi to come in.
The woodcutter was a man in his fifties named Xu Han. He had a strong body, strong shoulder blades, and a beard on his face. But at this time he was lying on the bed, coughing and looking extremely tired.
"This is Master Wu, the clerk of Jianyouwei."
Qing Qiang briefly introduced to Xu Han: "This time Master Wu came to find out the epidemic ghost and completely eradicate the epidemic. You need your cooperation."
Xu Han swallowed his saliva and wanted to sit up, and said hoarsely: "Master, I don't know what I can do..."
"Please have a good rest."
Wu Qi said in a gentle voice: "No need to move, just close your eyes, and there will be nothing wrong in a while."
"Okay, OK."
Xu Han closed his eyes.
Wu Qi took out the Taoist talisman: "Superman Yao, please do not let others come in, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."
"Don't worry."
The Taoist talisman turned into a ray of white smoke, and the green-faced judge held a brush in his hand, showing his true body.
He was originally transformed into ghosts and gods by Chongyang and Bi Qianyan. As soon as he appeared, his demon general's later cultivation level made Qing Qiang's face slightly change.
Wu Qi asked: "Can the opening method detect the traces of the epidemic ghost from the patient?"
"able."
Judge Hongxu replied decisively: "Any magic has traces."
"Let's start."
Judge Hongxu walked to Xu Han's side, and his fingers slashed his chest. A neat hole broke out in the woodcutter's chest, revealing the beating heart in the chest, which was moving intestines and intestines.
The judge reached into it, fumbled in the ribs of the chest cavity, and took out a piece of lungs skillfully, brushed it with a brush for a while before putting it back into the chest cavity.
Qing Qiang's eyelids twitched when he saw it.
I don't know if this woodcutter can survive...
The judge scratched his fingers, cut Xu Han's neck, took out a pale white trachea with blood from it, waved his brush and gently applied it on it.
He put the trachea back into his throat and checked Xu Han's ears, nose and eyes.
The red bearded judge brushed across the skin, and the wounds disappeared immediately, as if they had never appeared.
Then he puffed up his chest and spit out a ball of white mist. The white mist lingered in Xu Han, and suddenly formed dark spots in the air. These dark spots were slender and flocs, slowly floating in the air.
The judge of the Red Beard raised his pen and dipped it in the air, and shouted.
A cluster of ink suddenly condensed from the tip of the pen.
The ink seeps into the dark spots, forming a roundabout and swim-splashing line that spreads far outside the house.
"Honor, follow me."
The judge went out all the way and tracked the black lines in the air.
He strided hard, and Wu Qi followed closely.
Qing Qiang turned around and looked at the hut behind him: "Master, then Xu Han will not be in trouble, right?"
"No worries, don't worry."
Wu Qi said casually.
