When they returned to Fan's private house, Su Ling was still in a coma and did not wake up.Gu Huai, whose injury had improved a lot, wept loudly when he heard the news of Bai Qingyu's death.

From his mouth, they heard more about Bai Qingyu.

Being an eunuch was just one of his encounters. Long before becoming an eunuch, he had experienced more hardships when he was still a teenager.Perhaps without your own personal experience, you will never know how ugly some people's hearts are in this world. It is these ugly people's hearts that create the Bai Qingyu they see.

After hearing about these encounters, Rong Tan suddenly felt that Bai Qingyu's love for Meng Yuanjun might not be as simple as their broken sleeves, maybe it was just a poor man who was desperate for people's hearts and wanted to hold on to the last straw.It's just that he has been twisted and is no longer human.

But this man-eating monster was actually man-made.

Su Ling finally survived the hell, and after three days, the fever subsided.Gu Huai also improved a lot, and as soon as he was able to go to the field, he went to Bai's house.

Most of the walking corpses in Qingzhou City have already died, and most of the remaining half left Qingzhou City and went to the surrounding towns.The huge Qingzhou City has truly become a dead city.Rong Tan and Li Mu accompanied Gu Huai out, walking on the street, they saw dead bodies everywhere, and the smell was terrible.They covered their mouths and noses, and when they arrived at Bai's house, they found that Meng Yuanjun and Bai Qingyu were gone.

Don't know where they went.

Bai Qingyu probably also became a walking corpse, but I don't know if the walking corpse Bai Qingyu is with Meng Yuanjun, or has already parted ways with Meng Yuanjun.Even if there was brotherhood in life and a walking corpse after death, they are still strangers.

Gu Huai was unwilling to go back with them, saying that he wanted to stay in Bai's house.

Rong Tan didn't want to keep him either, and left Bai's house with Li Mu.

Seeing his serious expression, Li Mu said, "You have been depressed for the past few days, but because of their affairs?"

"When I was in the capital, I also loved to listen to operas and music. I don't know if any of the young men I met were also trafficked by human traffickers. Although I knew that those who sang were forced by life, but I never think about whether they are pitiful or not... You say why there are people like traffickers in this world. They are also parents and children themselves, and they can do such outrageous things. They are really inferior to animals. Compared with Bai Qingyu, these People are more hateful."

He spoke earnestly, clenched his fists.Li Mu patted his shoulder and didn't speak.The two of them walked along the side of the street. The stench in the street was overwhelming. Even if there were no walking corpses, Qingzhou City might not be able to stay any longer.

"Based on the situation, we have to leave Qingzhou City as soon as possible," Li Mu said, "The city is full of dead bodies, I'm afraid there will be a plague, and I'm afraid we won't even be able to hide at home."

Rong Tan nodded: "I think so too. The Fan family's house is so big that we can smell the stench of corpses even if we hide in the innermost part, let alone ordinary people's homes. I'm just worried that the current situation in Qingzhou City The number of corpses has just decreased, and once people come out, those walking corpses who are at the end of their lives may set off a new round of bloody storms."

I don't know how many of those who hid and escaped this catastrophe can successfully escape from Qingzhou City.

This plague came sooner than they expected.On the second day, one of Fan's house guards went out to look for food, and on the night of his return, he had vomiting and diarrhea. He took many medicines to no avail, and died three days later.

They discussed it all night, and in the morning of the second day, they opened the gate of Fan's private house, and continued to walk east, intending to leave the city.

There were not many walking corpses left on the street, and many people who had locked their doors opened their doors, but not many people left, probably looking around.On the way, they met Dr. Yang again.

"I'm afraid there will be a plague in the city, you should leave quickly." Doctor Yang said.

"Doctor Yang," Rong Tan said to him, "we have seen many people along the way who have no intention of leaving Qingzhou. If you feel that this plague is likely to be inevitable, you can persuade them when you see a doctor." .Once the plague breaks out, it cannot be avoided by hiding at home."

Doctor Yang said, "I know."

Because there were still walking corpses on the road, and there were old, weak, sick and disabled among them, they walked very slowly. When the evening approached, they finally left Qingzhou City and settled in the east of Qingzhou City.

In addition to them, many other people also settled there.When she was about to rest at night, Liu Huier, who was going to fetch water, unexpectedly met her parents in the crowd. When the family reunited, they couldn't help crying.Rong Tan was watching from the side, feeling very emotional in his heart. He turned his head and saw that Fan Xingzhi was standing beside him, looking at Liu Huier's family with a smile.

"Do you want to go home?" Rong Tan said.

He actually wanted to say this a long time ago.Fan Xingzhi was ordered to escort them back to Donghe, but at that time they didn't know that the road was so dangerous.Now that walking corpses are rampant, it is human nature for Fan Xingzhi to return to the capital.

It's just that he guessed that the capital may not be spared, and Fan Xingyi may not be safe with them when he goes back alone.

Fan Xingzhi said: "Since I promised my father that I will send you to Donghe safely, I will not break my promise."

"Don't worry too much," Rong Tan said, "The only place in the world that is safest is the capital. If the safest place in the capital is your Fan family."

Fan Xingzhi smiled slightly, but his expression was haggard and heavy.

They slept in the suburbs overnight, and when they got up early the next morning, Liu Huier brought over a pot of porridge, which was cooked by her parents.

"Young master, I heard from my parents that horses are being sold in front of the Songjiazhuangzi not far ahead, and you still have a long way to go back to Donghe. It can also be faster.”

"What about you, where are your parents going?"

"We are going to join my uncle. His family is in Yulong Town. I heard that it is safe there for the time being. These people are going to flee there."

Rong Tan nodded, and gave her the sword in his hand: "Keep it for self-defense."

Liu Hui'er took it in her hand, and Rong Tan took out another bag of silver and gave it to her: "I don't know if you need it or not, take it with you."

"Thank you sir."

"Wait a little longer, we'll buy a horse, and I'll give you one too, it's useful."

Liu Huier shook her head with a smile: "I appreciate your kindness, but no one in our family knows how to ride a horse, and carrying it is a burden. My family has a mule, which is enough." Liu Huier pointed to a mule tied beside him : "We're leaving now."

Rong Tan went to see Liu Huier off in person, before Liu Huier left, he suddenly whispered, "My lord, do you know who the family in front is?"

Rong Tan heard that when he looked up, he saw a carriage in front, followed by more than a dozen entourages, obviously a wealthy family.

Liu Hui'er said: "That's from the Meng family. Master Meng and Mrs. Meng are both in the carriage."

When the Meng family was mentioned suddenly, Rong Tan's heart skipped a beat.Through the curtain of the car, he saw the middle-aged man sitting inside. Sure enough, his facial features were somewhat similar to Meng Yuanjun's, and he was also a handsome man.Mrs. Meng seemed to be ill, lying there, unable to read her description clearly.But Rong Tan was attracted by a person outside the carriage.

It was a young man in his 20s, with a very beautiful face, squatting on the ground, holding a branch in his hand, and he didn't know what he was doing, but he looked a little stupid, with loose clothes and most of his chest exposed, A red birthmark was faintly visible on the chest.

Rong Tan was stunned for a moment, and saw Master Meng sticking his head out of the window, and shouted: "Xiaotang, we should go, get in the car quickly."

Hearing this, Xiaotang threw away the branch in his hand, patted the soil on his body, and climbed into the car.

Rong Tan stood there blankly, watching the Meng family's carriage go away.

The Liu family will also follow along, they are all going to Yulong Town.

Tan Rong even forgot to see Liu Huier's family off, and stared blankly at the Meng family's carriage going away.I don't know how long it took, but when I turned around and saw Zhu Yan crying, I said, "There is always a banquet in the world."

He went to buy horses with Fan Xingzhi, and saw a dozen tall horses tied outside a village from a distance.

"My master loves raising horses the most. It's just that the corpses are rampant right now. Our master is leaving, so we can't keep these horses anymore, so we have to sell them. It will also give you a convenience when you go out."

The words are nice, but the price is extremely high, and ordinary people will leave after asking a few questions.Now that he was fleeing for his life, no one wanted to buy a horse, but the horse seller obviously felt that it was a rare commodity and refused to lower the price.

Fortunately, when Fan Xingzhi came out, he recited all the money in Fan's house and bought six horses.

Su Ling was still in poor health and couldn't ride alone, so Fan Xingzhi rode with him.The master's health was not good, so Li Mu took a ride with him.Lu Guangye brought Li Wei, Rong Tan took Zhu Jian, and another horse carried the luggage. , a group of people headed for the East River mightily.

Donghe is forty miles away from Qingzhou City, and my hometown is close at hand.
