Chapter 41

How did he know this?
Xiao Wu and his group were startled when they heard this. What he said was right, but it wasn't that the person was crazy, but that the person who got the disease was too extreme, intentionally biting others to spread the disease, But then it was controlled!
The few of them came here to carry out their missions, so they all knew a little about the epidemic, and now this young man from Xie's family knows all about it. It seems that the matter has already been spread, and the adults probably don't know about it!
Fortunately, this boy didn't know that the man had the disease, otherwise... the whole town would be in chaos!

"Small pillars?"

Xiao Zhuzi, who was crying, suddenly heard someone calling him, and couldn't help being stunned. The voice sounded familiar, but when he followed the sound and found that it was a little girl, his original guess was immediately dispelled, and he said in confusion instead: , "How do you know my name?"

Gu Xi also felt that this figure was like a small pillar, so he tentatively called out, but forgot that he was not the doctor 'Qin' now, so he couldn't help being a little embarrassed, seeing that the other party didn't see through him, he pretended not to know, and looked, "You Talking to me? Sorry I just called a kitten I have, it just ran away!"

Gu Xi pointed at the grass next to him in a serious manner, and told the other party very clearly that she was calling her cat!
"Little girl, I finally found you!" Xiao Wu felt very familiar when he heard the voice before, but when Gu Xi walked over, he realized that it was the person he was looking for. He walked over happily and invited him aside in a low voice .

"You adults have something to do with me?"

"It's like this, we are here to tell you, please help keep the words that your lord said in the government office earlier, after all, this epidemic..."

That's what happened!
"Go back and tell your lords to rest assured. I'm just here to pick up my mother. I won't care about other things or talk nonsense!" Gu Xi understands Master Xu's concerns. She doesn't hate this lord, so she cooperates It's okay to fall down.

As soon as Xiao Wu heard her full promise, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, the task was finally completed, but he did not forget to advise Gu Xi not to go in before returning to his command.

Gu Xi didn't explicitly refuse, and the other party thought she agreed to consider it, so she left in peace!

"They...why did they just leave like that? My young master is still inside, you wait!" Xiao Zhuzi, who was completely slow to react, waited for a long time for the yamen servant to leave before realizing that he had been ignored. Anxiety that she has the same name as someone else's cat, she hurried up to chase after it.

Gu Xi watched the group of people leave, and continued walking without stopping!Before Guxi could walk for a long time, a figure came trotting behind him, because he felt that someone was chasing Guxi and deliberately slowed down, so the other party was already tired and out of breath when he ran, "Little... little girl, you... you walked It's too fast, wait for me!"

The person who followed was Xiao Zhuzi. He had just caught up with the group of yamen servants and asked them to accompany him to Taogu Village, but just after he finished his request, a group of people looked at him like snakes and scorpions, and clearly rejected him. Please, he didn't know what to do for a while, but the group of people told him that the little girl just now also went to Taogu Village!

Originally, he didn't dare to go because he was afraid of the rumors of biting people, but now a little girl is going on the road alone, and I don't know where the courage came from. Xiao Zhuzi caught up with Gu Xi and decided to go with her!
Gu Xi didn't have any objections, this road was not hers, and if they said they were together, they would go their separate ways, unless he could keep up with her own footsteps!
As a result, on a bright and sunny day, a very strange scene appeared on this path. A short little girl was walking slowly, and behind her a man who was taller than her was running like a dog as tired as a trot.Xiao Zhuzi almost thought that his head was fainted by the sun, otherwise why would he feel that the little girl seemed to be flying?
When the two reached Taogu Village, it was already half an hour later!
There is no clear indicator in front of him, only a stone tablet is standing in the weed forest next to it, and the three big characters engraved on the stone tablet can be seen through the grass - Taogu Village!

Xiaozhuzi rubbed his sweat and looked at the village that seemed to be in front of him in the distance. He finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was exhausted from walking all the way. He looked at the people around him while thinking, but found that the other person was not blushing or heartbeating. , I don't look tired at all!
When she saw the destination, Gu Xi, she almost forgot that there was someone beside her, so she kept speeding up, so when she came to the first house in the village, Xiaozhu was still holding her stomach and stretching out her hands, as if she was calling Gu Xi to wait. Wait, it's a pity that he doesn't even have the strength to speak!
Gu Xi looked at this family and found that although the house was tidy, it seemed that no one lived there. She knocked on the door resolutely, but found that the door was not locked.
"Little girl, you... your legs are probably made of wood, I'm exhausted, you wait for me!" After finally following up, Xiao Zhu just bent down to rest for a while, and when he looked up, he saw that Gu Xi was about to leave The action, almost cried out.

Gu Xi only remembered him at this time, looked at him for a long time, and finally said, "Follow me closely!"

When he said this, Gu Xi's eyes were still looking around, his little face was not as casual as it was at the beginning, and it even showed some precautions.When Xiao Zhuzi heard her words, she always felt as if there was some danger here, and her body was exhausted with fear. The next moment, she ran behind Gu Xi, and looked around like Gu Xi.

When Gu Xi turned around, he happened to see his treacherous eyebrows, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows. Speaking of which, the posture of the two of them at this moment is the same as that day in the restaurant!

Xiao Zhuzi is the person who Gu Xi revealed the most to another identity, but unfortunately he is also the most stupid one, otherwise Gu Xi would have discovered it a long time ago due to his carelessness a few times!
When Gu Xi walked forward following the voice of the people, Xiao Zhuzi followed her, completely unaware of how weird it was for him as an adult to hide behind a little girl!
The more you walk forward, the more movement there is, and the houses on both sides become more messy, and even the ground is dirty, with scattered vegetable leaves and other debris everywhere!
This time, Gu Xi saw quite a few people from the room next to him, but they all looked defensive. When they saw Gu Xi and the two of them, they closed the door vigorously. The moment they closed the door, they seemed to be able to see their eyes. The hatred bursting out of my heart!

Hate! ?
The villagers who saw her hated her before she even started looking for it. Gu Xi didn't think it was a good thing, maybe even the handwritten note in her hand would become a piece of paper by then!

However, after continuing to walk for a while, Gu Xi found that he couldn't move forward at all, because there were hundreds of people surrounded in front of him. From the clothes, it could be seen that they were all residents of the village, but he didn't know what happened. At this time, everyone was holding a murder weapon and looking at the crowd with full vigilance!

Because it was too far away to see inside, Gu Xi didn't notice when the people around her sneaked over to peek, and when she found out, the small pillar was already surrounded by several villagers!
"Who are you? What are you sneaking into our village for?" Xiao Zhuzi was easily restrained, and he stammered for a long time before explaining his intentions in the face of these very unkind residents, "Don't...don't get me wrong, I just came to see our young master Yes, he came here with the people from your village to pick up wood carvings, and I'm here to pick up our young master!"

"Oh, I should have met the man he said!" I was still doubting Xiao Zhuzi's words at first, but someone seemed to remember something, "He's at Old Tao's house, and I heard that he is indeed a rich young master. To make a wood carving of a birthday star, you need precious agarwood!"

"Since you are really looking for someone, take him there and let them leave after the wood carvings are finished!" The person who spoke seemed to be quite authoritative in the village. Walked over, "little girl, how about you?"

Obviously, the other party is much more magnanimous because Gu Xi is a child, at least his tone is not as sharp as before, and Gu Xi's original intention was to find someone, and he didn't want to have any impulsiveness with others, so he probably half-truthed how Gu Mu was taken away and how he came here Tell half falsely.

"Have you ever seen the person the little girl mentioned?" The person didn't expect someone in his village to do such a thing. Although he didn't know who it was, he immediately asked the people around him, but unfortunately everyone who asked him shook his head. !

Seeing everyone's confused eyes, Gu Xi couldn't help sinking down in a hopeful mood!
Seeing that he didn't get any news, the man looked at Gu Xi and sighed, "Little girl, we will pay attention to your mother's affairs, and you can leave with the master and servant later. In the past, it is inconvenient for me to say more..."

Gu Xi lowered her eyes to cover the cold light in her eyes, so naturally she won't leave easily!

Looking up at the small pillar that was about to pass through the crowd, she nodded towards the elder in front of her, and the next moment she quickly caught up with the few people who had left before, but when she passed by the crowd, she paused!
At this moment, Gu Xi is at an oblique angle. Originally, she could not see what was going on in the crowd due to her stature, but due to the fierce quarrels inside, she pushed and pushed her way through the crowd, and she just went in the direction of Gu Xi. Come!

It can be seen that the people who did it were a few refugees, because the clothes were so dirty that they couldn't see the color, and there were a lot of stains on their faces!The ones fighting with them were the villagers of Taogu Village, all of whom used hoes from the ground, and several times they even beat people out of blood, but those few refugees were obviously not as helpless as the other group of people in the crowd were looked at. Harmful, the fierceness on the injured face became even worse, and the next moment, someone suddenly rushed to one of the villagers and opened his mouth to bite him!
"Ah! Let go, you bastard, you've killed so many of us and you still want to kill me, evil!"

The man who was bitten screamed, and the next moment he dropped the things in his hands and opened the man's mouth with both hands. Unfortunately, the man tried hard, and when he really pulled the man away, the arm through the clothes was already stained with blood. Spotted!
The villagers carefully opened their sleeves, and accidentally saw the arm that had been bitten open, and immediately looked at the man who was smiling triumphantly in front of him, full of anger, "Are you still a human being? You eat and wear, is this how you repay me?"

"Repay?" The biter wiped away the blood left on his mouth, and smiled rarely when he saw the angry face of the other party, "Give me food and clothes? Why don't you say that you want to do whatever you want because you don't want to pay back my family's money?" Send me away if you give me something to eat? You also say that your relatives are doing it for my own good, and they want to drive me away when they hear that I am sick, and they even arrange others to burn me to death. I just want to bite you Let you experience it for yourself, if you still want to burn us to death, then burn it, at worst, we will die together with the people of your village!"

When the man said these words, he obviously put aside everything and planned for the worst!And after hearing his harsh words, many villagers showed fear on their faces!

The person who was bitten was accused face-to-face, although he couldn't see any fear, but there was a trace of panic in his eyes, and he took a step back at this moment!
Gu Xi happened to catch everyone's expressions in his eyes, and couldn't help but look at that unkempt man, who would be crazy enough to bite, obviously he was driven into a hurry, the man in front of him had a ferocious complexion and black eyes, it seems that the inner torture is not less than now!
She could probably guess that this person might be one of the plague sufferers!
Turning to look at the other people around him, they were not restrained honestly like those refugees on the other side, but rose up to resist, presumably they were already infected!It's just that they probably haven't fully understood the dangers of the epidemic. If they really knew, including those villagers, they should stay far away instead of arguing with each other!
