Pseudo master, she just wants to live

Chapter 72 You Can Make Money Again

The group walked slowly for three days, and finally arrived at the border of Zhenyang County on the first evening of October.

In addition to the pedestrian they met last time, Fang Yao and the others also encountered many refugees along the way.

Most likely because of the sympathy for each other, the villagers would enthusiastically tell the refugees to go outside Liyang County, where there is a relief point that specializes in porridge.

But most of the time, the refugees will stay away when they see them...

The sun is still half hanging on the top of the mountain, and beside the official road halfway up the mountain, some rays of light are shining on the stele engraved with the three characters "Zhenyang County".

Two miles away is the post station in Zhenyang County, and on both sides of this road, there are quite a few dense grasses.

Fang Yao decided to rest near here.

The horses and cows walked for a day, Li Fugui unloaded the shafts and luggage behind them, and took them aside to graze.

Those who collect firewood gather firewood, and those who build the stove build the stove.

With the lessons learned from the past, Fang Yao will put on a mask to observe the surroundings when it gets dark now, in case someone is ambushing and attacking secretly.

Even on the official road, she is very vigilant.

"what……"

Different from the calmness of the previous few days, as soon as Fang Yao put on the mask this day, Fang Yao heard a faint buzzing sound coming from the sky.

She looked around quickly, and found that the landform here was similar to that of Liyang County. There were also few dense living trees on the mountainside, and it was almost bare, and she didn't see anything wrong.

The brilliant sunlight above his head was partially covered by a layer of gray mist in the mask.

Fang Yao took a closer look and found that the black mist was slowly gathering in a certain direction.

Her heart skipped a beat. In the past, all she saw was black mist spilling out, but this time she encountered a black mist gathering somewhere...

After Mrs. Jiang got out of the carriage with her children, Fang Yao put down the curtain and went back into the carriage, taking out the brochure.

There was no change, the extra ball of black ink after subduing the fish monster stayed on the third blank side, quietly and motionless.

She thought to herself, isn't there enough space?

But the buzzing around his ears was really noticeable.

"Master, it's time to eat."

"Hey, come right away."

Fang Yao put away the booklet and temporarily took off the mask after confirming that there was no danger nearby.

The buzzing sounds that seem to be far away, like countless mosquitoes, disappear in an instant.

Jiang lifted the curtain and shook the ignited wormwood at the door of the carriage, spreading the pungent smoke of plant-specific incense, Fang Yao tilted her neck back.

"Sister, have you been to Zhenyang County before?" Fang Yao helped Mrs. Jiang jump out of the car.

Jiang said softly: "It's just passing by."

Fang Yao is a little entangled. Recently, she has spent too much money, her pockets are flat, and her heart is occasionally not at ease.

If there is a plague demon in Zhenyang County, she wants to take the opportunity to make some more money.

But I was worried that there would be danger.

"Master, come, come quickly." Li Fugui patted A Wu Niang's hand, "Go aside, Master hasn't served the meal yet."

Fang Yao took out her bowl and chopsticks from the car and walked to the cauldron.

Today is stir-fried pickle lumps with lard, boiled noodles with minced lean meat, it is hot and smells delicious.

After these days of nourishment, the villagers of Lijia Village have some flesh on their bodies and faces. Although the remaining money can barely cover the expenses on the road, life will be relatively poor.

Fang Yao looked at the happy faces of the villagers holding the bowls, and her heart moved, "Patriarch, I have something to talk to you after dinner."

Seeing Fang Yao's serious expression, Li Fugui immediately became a little nervous. He was absent-minded after eating, and frequently went to peep at her face.

Finally, after Fang Yao had finished eating, she waved to him, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and ran over.

"Patriarch, why haven't you eaten anything? You don't feel any discomfort, do you?"

Fang Yao asked worriedly, in this way, even if she catches a cold, she should take it easy so as not to infect her.

Li Fugui felt a little better in an instant with a heart that was up and down, and was moved: "Master, I'm fine, I have fish and meat every day, and my health is good, but you, don't be too tired... ..."

Fang Yao: "..."

Seeing Fang Yao's strange expression, Li Fugui felt uneasy again, "Master, why are you looking for me?"

Fang Yao coughed: "Patriarch, how do you think we are going these few days?"

"Had a great time!"

Li Fugui blurted out without thinking for a long time, "There are new clothes and new shoes, and a lot of meat to eat. It is said that we are fleeing famine, but there are horses and ox carts to carry us, just like the official who travels around the mountains and rivers." Yes! We never even thought about it before, but there can be such a..."

As he was talking, he suddenly thought of something, his voice suddenly lowered, and he said nervously: "Master, is it because we eat too much these days... You have no money?"

Fang Yao: "...how do you know?"

Li Fugui became annoyed, sure enough, they lived so comfortably these days, they spent all the money the master had saved with great difficulty!

It's a pity that the little money he saved has already been used up.

At the beginning, they clearly said that they were responsible for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the master, but now they have turned around. Does the master dislike bringing them a bunch of people, it is too expensive...

Li Fugui was anxious and flustered, just about to say something, Fang Yao frowned again, and said: "This Zhenyang County may not be very peaceful, I thought if you would like to come with me to see..."

Li Fugui quickly asked: "Master, do you mean that there is a plague demon in Zhenyang County?"

Fang Yao decided to be more serious: "It is possible."

"Hey, master, you should have said this earlier..." Li Fugui breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense body collapsed.

"..."

Fang Yao was speechless for a while.

The old man Li Fugui was so frightened when he saw the rat plague monster that was bigger than the kitten, but now he said what he said just now in such a nonchalant tone, and he was also tortured by her.

What's more, after Li Fugui breathed a sigh of relief, he straightened his back suddenly and said happily: "Master, there is a plague monster in Zhenyang County, so we can make money again?! These Tianwu They're all talking about it."

Fang Yao was dumbfounded, so these people were looking forward to it so much? !

She frowned slightly: "Aren't you afraid? This is dangerous, and you may die."

Li Fugui smiled: "It's natural to be afraid, but everyone is more afraid of poverty and hunger. Master, you don't know what it's like to tighten your belt every day and pour water into your stomach. This is more terrifying than that plague monster. "

Fang Yao fell silent.

Li Fugui continued: "Master, we can follow you to fight against the epidemic monster. Not only can we earn money, but we can also help ordinary people like us. Why don't you like this good thing?"

Fang Yao's heart was full of hot and complicated emotions, and with Li Fugui's words, the entanglement in her heart gradually disappeared.

"Okay, let's go to Zhenyang County tomorrow to have a look."
