Chapter 69 Epidemic
An hour later, Han Shi saw that it was already noon and said, "Let's take a rest!"

Zhu Zhu wiped the sweat from her forehead and sat down, took the gourd handed over by Han Shi, drank the water and sniffed her nose.

"Why is it so smelly?"

After hearing this, Han Shi stood up and looked into the distance.

"See what?"

Han Shi did not answer her question, but knelt down and looked at Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong looked into the distance and raised his eyebrows slightly after a while, then turned to look at them; "Brother Cao, what did you see?"

"I saw a lot of corpses and some people." Han Shi said slowly with a serious expression and a frown on his face.

"We see the same."

"Brother Wang, it looks like we're in trouble."

"What did Brother Cao think of?" Wang Zhong couldn't help but asked as he looked at Han Shixin with a serious expression.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Bai Chenglin stood up slowly, his eyes flickered slightly as he looked into the distance.

"Brother Wang, I'm worried that those people in front may have the disease."

Hearing this, Wang Zhong's face changed slightly, and he lowered his head and looked at his master.

"If it's as Brother Cao guessed, I'm afraid we will be in trouble."

"No wonder it smells so bad, but there has been no epidemic outbreak along the way before, so how could an epidemic suddenly break out here?" Zhu Zhu blocked her nose with her hands and looked into the distance with slightly raised eyebrows, puzzled.

"It's very simple. Those who were alive ate the corpses in the flood." Wang Zhong kindly explained to her.

Zhu Zhu hurriedly covered her mouth and retched.

Wang Zhong glanced at Zhu Zhu and then looked at Han Shi with some embarrassment. "Brother Han, what should we do now?"

Han Shi looked into the distance and pondered for a moment; "The best way is to avoid those people in front of you as much as possible."

"It may not be easy to avoid those people. There are hills all around here. If we are not good, we may hit the hills, and those people may not let us go easily."

"That's what I'm worried about, but it's the only way we can do it. Fortunately, the bamboo pole in my hand is long enough. It's not impossible for us to cross the river by feeling the stones, but..."

"I understand what Brother Han means. Only by working together can we escape and ascend to heaven. I will try my best to stop those people so that you have no worries."

"Those people probably haven't found us yet. The best way is to drive at night so that we have a better chance."

"You're right, then let's stay here until it gets dark before we go on our way." Wang Zhong said as he picked up a log and plunged it into the water forcefully. While blocking the door, he grabbed the bathtub.

Han Shi directly inserted the bamboo pole into the middle of the two door panels, so that the door panels were fixed.

Listening to their conversation, Wang Rouhua knew that there might be a plague breaking out ahead. Following the example of the two of them, she inserted a log into the water to block the door, and hugged her son tightly, her eyes slowly turning red.

Han Shi took out a steamed bun from his backpack and handed it to the woman; "Have a rest after eating, and let's go on our way in the evening."

"I can't eat it, you go ahead and eat it!" Zhu Zhu shook her head and took a few more sips of water to suppress the nausea in her heart.

Han Shi looked at the pale woman and put the bun into her hand.

"You'd better get used to all this earlier, eat, and you will have the strength to escape when you are full."

Zhu Zhu held the steamed bun and watched the man eat it slowly.

Han Shi looked at Zhu Zhu, who was eating steamed buns, and couldn't help but sigh.
