Qingqiu is difficult

Early that morning, it was raining heavily, so Lu Xinyi pushed the cart out. The cart was wrapped in a mat, and she was wearing a raincoat, looking very embarrassed.

Two bare feet were exposed outside the mat. The servant at the door saw them and immediately stepped forward to stop them.

"What can you dare to get out of the Duke's Mansion so easily?"

The rain was surprisingly heavy. Even if he was wearing a bamboo hat, it was inevitable that rainwater would splash in. Lu Xinyi said loudly: "Brother, the last horse in the stable is dead. Old Zhangtou told me that if the horse dies, he will be thrown into the chaos." In the burial mound, otherwise you will survive the epidemic!"

The doorman was about to check, but he was so frightened by her words that he retracted his hand. He saw that there were black spots on the two exposed feet, and he couldn't help but say:

"Well, I guess he won't live long, so just throw it away! Remember to come back and report it to the nobles!"

"Yes!"

Lu Xinyi pushed the cart hard. The white gauze on her cheeks played a good role in shaping the terrifying atmosphere. She pushed the cart to the mass grave. In order to prevent those people from reacting, she and the boy put on his coat. On a corpse, they were hastily buried and left in the mass grave one after another.

The young man jumped into the river. Although it was raining heavily, the rain in the sky and the river water on the ground seemed to wash away the evil in the world. The young man couldn't help but feel happy——

Years of prison life, torture worse than death, now let it go happily with the rain!

After he took a clean bath and walked ashore naked, Lu Xinyi was holding an umbrella with her back to him. There was a set of clean clothes beside him, with a pair of scissors and a razor on top.

Lu Xinyi said loudly: "It's getting late, I have to go back. If your hair can't be washed clean, just cut it off. When it grows back, it will be black and shiny hair! I'll leave the things and umbrella with you." Here we are, we are destined to meet again!"

After saying that, she dropped the umbrella and her raincoat was already wet, but she didn't care much, turned around and ran back to the Duke's Mansion.

On the shore, the young man got dressed. The weather had gradually cleared up. Under the sunshine, the young man shaved off his beard and tangled hair. He looked like a young monk who had just become a monk. Looking at himself on the water, the young man couldn't help but feel... A moment of sadness.

As soon as he returned to the Duke's Mansion, he saw a group of people waiting in the stable. The sky had cleared. Lu Xinyi took off his bamboo hat. Old Zhang came up and asked:

"Where's that sick horse at the end? Where did he go?!"

Lu Xinyi shook the water on his sleeves: "Sir, the horse was infected with the disease. The student was already dead when he found it. He was afraid that the horse would spread the disease to other horses, so he threw it in a mass grave."

Old Zhangtou said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, you damn girl! When did the old man become your husband? I think you are also infected with the epidemic and are going crazy!"

After saying that, he turned around and knelt down to the crowd, saying:

"The little old man is incompetent. The little old man will punish this girl severely. Go and carry the body back. I hope you nobles will not report it to the master!"

The leading old man said: "But the master needs to see the sick horse now. You'd better hurry up. If it's too late, we can't protect you!"

Lao Zhangtou promised again and again, got up, led a fast horse, hitched the carriage, pulled a young man with him, grabbed Lu Xinyi again, and said:

"You have caused this evil yourself. Come with me to find that body! Otherwise, I will break your legs and feed them to the wolves!"

Lu Xinyi reluctantly got into the car. It had been raining all night and the road was inevitably muddy. The three of them bumped along the way and finally arrived at the mass grave. From a distance, they saw the body still soaking in the mud. Xinyi screamed inwardly, but when he got closer, he saw that the corpse's face had been soaked beyond recognition. Old man Zhang was about to step forward and lift the corpse, but Lu Xinyi hurriedly stopped him and said:

"Sir, the corpse is infected with the epidemic. If you carry it back to the mansion rashly, and the Duke's mansion is infected with the epidemic, what should you do?" As soon as he heard about the epidemic, the young man jumped even further: "Yes, Mr. Zhang, just carry a corpse back." , he is also unlucky for the Duke’s government!”

Yes, whoever wants to come here is willing to come here. At this moment, Lu Xinyi stepped forward and said:

"Sir, you have also seen that the sick horse is indeed dead. You see, why don't we go back to the mansion to recover first? What the Duke's Mansion probably wants to know is just the news of whether the sick horse is dead, not the news. A corpse, isn’t it?”

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, let's go quickly. The mass graves are filled with people who died of illness. It's bad luck!"

Unable to withstand the rhetoric of the two people, the old Zhangtou had no choice but to say: "Okay! Report the truth when you go back. Xiao Wu, you can watch from this mass grave. I went back and asked the master if he still wanted this." I’ll come find you to carry the body back together!”

As he said that, he pinched Xin Yi hard again and cursed: "Go back and follow me to return your life to the master!"

After hearing this, Xiao Wu was so angry that he dared not say anything. He was complaining in his heart and could only watch helplessly as the two got into the car and drove away.

Lu Xinyi looked at the sky and hurriedly drove the carriage back.

Halfway through the walk, Lao Zhang patted his forehead and said, "Oh, I forgot to give Xiao Wu a raincoat! What if it rains again today?"

Xin Yi hurriedly said: "Sir, you are too soft-hearted! Brother Wu is still young, what happened if he got caught in the rain?! We should rush back to recover now. If the owner says he doesn't want the body, we should come back quickly to pick it up." Brother Wu!"

Seeing that he had gone a long way, Old Man Zhang had no choice but to agree to Xin Yi's suggestion. The two returned to the mansion, and Old Zhang hurriedly asked his master for instructions. Sure enough, after a while, a group of strong men came out of the Guogong Courtyard, followed Old Zhang and said:

"You're such a bold girl. He's a first-level criminal in the Duke's mansion. If you dare to let him go today, even ten of your heads can't stop him!"

Lu Xinyi hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said with a trembling body: "Sir, please calm down. The body is still in the mass grave. The adults can tell at a glance that this slave is also thinking about the house!"

Several people picked up Xin Yi, turned around and mounted their horses. They bumped all the way to the mass grave, only to see Xiao Wu trembling, holding his nose and using tree sticks to piece together the corpses on the pile of dead people.

Seeing everyone coming, Xiao Wu fell to his knees with a plop.

"Adults! A pack of wild dogs came from nowhere just now and chewed the dead man's bones into pieces. Now these are the only ones left! No matter how hard the villain chases him away, it's useless!"

The corpse gave off a stench that filled the sky. The officers went up to check it out and pulled it around with wooden sticks. They saw that the dead man's face was so rotten that he looked at Lao Zhangtou and heard him say:

"Sir, this sick horse was indeed wearing the same clothes he was wearing when he died. It is extremely filthy. In these famine years, there are too many wild dogs. It is normal for people to bite their faces to pieces! This sick horse has been sick for so long. Death is certain. Sir, it’s raining so hard, let’s go back quickly!”

While the officer and soldier was hesitating, he suddenly said to Xin Yi: "You! Go and put his body together!"
