Yun Ting anecdotes

The atmosphere was silent for a moment.

Wu Siyue couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Old City Guard, why did Youyuan City change its name to Stone City?"

Qi Chengshou took a look at Wu Siyue, "Youyuan City is in a terrible disaster, and there are only some dilapidated houses and old city walls left. Besides, Youyuan City sounds more like a city of injustice, and people outside don't really call it 'you The name "Yuancheng" is called Stone City instead, and this name has spread."

Seeing that everyone had a clear look, Qi Chengshou asked: "This stone city has not been mentioned for many years, at least I haven't heard it here, did all the masters ask about this deserted city today? "

Chunyu Ye said back and forth: "I also heard some things, may I ask if Qi Chengshou saw many refugees appearing nearby three years ago?"

Qi Chengshou didn't recall too much, and immediately thought of saying: "Three years ago, there must have been none. At that time, the gates of our Cuizhu City were closed. If it wasn't for our city residents, they wouldn't be allowed in? "

Mu Ruyu was surprised and asked, "Three years ago, the situation was basically stable, and the new emperor was enthroned at that time, so how could this Green Bamboo City close its gates and not allow others to enter?"

Qi Chengshou, "The situation is stable, but there is an epidemic outside, and it spreads so fiercely that it seems that you will be infected if you say a word. The Qingya County above us ordered that all cities are not allowed to open the city gates to prevent the epidemic. Some people in our city have heard the rumors and have been afraid for a long time, and they can't wait for this order to be issued."

Therefore, the gates of each city have been closed, and the citizens of each city are naturally unaware that there are refugees outside. If it wasn't for the fact that the Liu family and the Zheng family happened to meet on the way back...

Mu Ruyu, "At that time, His Majesty had already sowed money to treat the sick. If the gates of the cities were closed, the sick refugees..."

In the middle of Mu Ruyu's speech, she suddenly understood that those refugees who were infected with the disease were driven to Stone City by the governor of Qingya County, and Stone City, which is obviously not far from Cuizhu City, people here still think it is a deserted city , then the people in Stone City...

Mu Ruyu, "May I ask Chengshou Qi, where is that stone city and how to get there?"

Qi Chengshou was startled when he heard the words, "Are you still going to the stone city? It's late at night, I don't know when, and some people went astray at night, and they heard crackling sounds outside the city, it's very scary..."

Chunyu Yelai said, "City Guard Qi, I think you know what happened to Liu's House. The Stone City is probably not a deserted city, and it has something to do with what happened to the Liu House. Please tell the City Guard the location of the Stone City."

Qi Chengshou listened, and now he understood why he was asked about Stone City when something happened to Liu's house last night.

Qi Chengshou, "Okay, the old man in Stone City will take you there. The Liu residence is too miserable, too miserable."

He waved his hand, unable to speak.

Wu Siyue asked people to prepare chariots and horses.With horses all the way, the group of them walked quickly, and they arrived near the legendary Stone City in more than half an hour.

It was too dark and the trees were full of shade.Chunyu Yelai and Mu Ruyu walked in front holding the lamp, Wu Siyue asked people to carefully support the elderly Qi Chengshou.

A stone road buried by weeds is exposed in front of you, pointing to a dilapidated and gloomy old city in front of you. The city gate is closed, and the city wall is not high, but it is still there.

Mu Ruyu looked at Chunyu Yelai, and Chunyu Yelai nodded. They all agreed that they didn't want to try to push the city gate, but—Mu Ruyu hugged Chunyu Yelai, flew up, and jumped onto the city wall.

At this time, the bright lights seemed dim, and this abyss-like stone city was filled with phosphorescent green.

Like silent, unfinished, faint, full of life.

The night wind was too cold, too biting, it was obviously summer.

Mu Ruyu still stopped Chunyu Yelai.Chunyu Yelai felt that he was being poured over his head by a basin of ice water, and the only heat on his body came from Mu Ruyu's arms and palms.

Mu Ruyu was also shocked, but what she had to do now was not to continue standing on the city wall.He hugged Chunyu Yelai, without questioning him, he flew directly and took him down the city wall.

"How is it?" Wu Siyue stepped forward and asked.

Mu Ruyu shook her head.

Wu Siyue originally wanted to ask what happened to shaking his head, but seeing Chunyu Yelai's pale face, he suddenly understood something, and asked instead: "What should we do now?"

Mu Ruyu turned her head to the side, and asked Chunyu Yelai softly, "Do you suspect that the flowers of the past life were planted from them, do you have to check at night?"

Chunyu Yelai shook his head slightly, "No, it's too dark here. After the past life flowers have grown, there will still be some traces left. You can wait until dawn to see."

Wu Siyue became anxious when he heard it, "Chunyu Cha Lingshi, didn't you say that the flower of the past life grew on the corpse? Could it be that there is...all of it?"

Chunyu Yelai nodded, "I suspect that all 67 people in the Liu residence have been poisoned by the flowers of the past life. The flowers of the past life can make people immortal, so they can hide the fact that someone is going to die. But it needs to meet This kind of effect requires a lot of past life flowers, which also requires a lot of..."

Wu Siyue said angrily, "They are simply beasts! They..."

Mu Ruyu, "Yelai, do you already know that there are indeed flowers from the past planted in it, and coming back at dawn is just to confirm."

Chunyu Yelai, "Well, didn't Qi Chengshou just say that someone passed by at night and heard some noises? I guess that person passed by here more than three years ago. Those crackling sounds were the sound of flowers blooming, because too much Unique, so it is recorded in the book."

Qi Chengshou stood a little far away, saw them talking, but couldn't hear them clearly, stepped forward and asked, "My lord, how is it going inside, is there anyone else?"

Several people looked at him, not knowing what to say.

Chunyu came at night, "Thank you for guarding the city, please trouble General Wu to send some people to guard here, we might as well go back."

Night Breeze became more anxious and seemed to be colder again.When they returned to Green Bamboo City, it was almost dawn.

In a dimly lit room, Sun Cong was tied up.Chunyu Ye came and went in, he only asked one question, "How did you know about the flowers of the past life?"

Sun Zhui changed his mind and suddenly understood that they already knew what he had done.

Chunyu Yelai, "You don't regret your death, but do you think they will let your family go?"

A trace of panic flashed in Sun Cong's eyes, but he remained silent.

Chunyu Yelai, "You have given them a lot of benefits, but if something happens to your family after you have an accident, then the ones in your hand..."

What Chunyu Ye said was obvious enough, no matter whether Sun Cong obtained the funds from the imperial court or the money from Liu Zhai to buy medicines, it must have given the counselor some benefits.But if the counselor is not a simple counselor, what does the counselor want more?

Sun Cong panicked all of a sudden, he opened his mouth, and said falteringly: "Master... Master... He, it's him... I, nothing... nothing..."

Chunyu Yelai knew what he was going to say later, but she didn't want to hear it at all, so she turned around and left.

Wu Siyue immediately set off to capture the master of Qingya County's prime minister in person.But when he arrived, the master had already disappeared, and the bad news came soon after, that Sun Cong's wife and daughter had been found dead in the inner courtyard.

Wu Siyue's face was very dark, he asked other people in Qingya County's prime minister's mansion, "Then what is the master's appearance, height, age, and what is he usually like?"

Someone replied: "Master is very young, he looks a little ignorant, and sometimes he can't see people, but the master trusts him very much."...

It turned out that they were all deceived by the so-called young and naive master.

When Wu Siyue rushed back to Cuizhu City to join Mu Chun and the two of them, they had already returned from Stone City.

It is true that past life flowers were planted there, and the experiences of those refugees were engraved on the inner city wall by one person.The so-called weeping blood every word is nothing more than the case.

Wu Siyue, "Why did they become refugees, and how did they end up in Qingya County?"

Mu Ruyu, "They were originally villagers living at the foot of the mountain. Do you remember Madam Liu once said that the road they passed was cut off by a mountain torrent? That torrent also destroyed several villages at the foot of the mountain. Those villages were originally It is also within the jurisdiction of the Qingya County Prime Minister."

Wu Siyue, "Oh, they wanted to ask Sun Cong for help, but they didn't expect to be driven to Stone City by Sun Cong."

Mu Ruyu, "Not only that, in order to deceive people, Sun Cong exaggerated the horror of the epidemic, which made the people in the cities panic, and then ordered the city gates to be closed, so he obeyed the people's will."

Wu Siyue thought for a while and said, "When the refugees arrive in Stone City, if they haven't been treated, won't they leave the city to resist?"

Mu Ruyu, "After their homes were destroyed by mountain torrents, they walked a long way and were already exhausted. Some of them contracted diseases because they ate unclean food. It can be said that they were poor and sick. When they arrived at Stone City, Sun Cong should have distributed some congee and food to appease the disease. But the medicine for curing the disease is not sure to cure the disease, and there are so many people, it is quite expensive. According to the writing on the city wall, Sun Cong Some low-priced counterfeit medicines were hastily distributed.”

Wu Siyue already knew the situation in Stone City, but he was still shocked when he heard Mu Ruyu's description, "So, the people in Stone City got sick one by one... That Sun Cong was so mourned in order to embezzle the money for epidemic relief. All goodness!"

Chunyu Yelai, "I'm afraid it's not the only one. The owner of Liu's house that Mrs. Liu said is probably worried because he has seen those refugees and believed the rumors that those who are sick will be driven to Stone City. The matter was hastily covered up, but I didn't expect that everyone in the entire family would gradually get sick afterwards."

Hearing him turn the conversation back to Liu's house, Wu Siyue remembered that there was still something about Liu's house.

Wu Siyue, "By the way, Sun Cong sent someone to visit Liu's house, and he knew about the illness of the people in Liu's house."

Chunyu Yelai said, "But the circumstances of the people in Liu's house are different. Presumably, it's because Liu's house has a lot of family background. Then Sun Zhuang learned about the past life flowers from the master, so he said he would sell the medicine to Liu's house. Everyone in Liu's house took the past life flower system. The medicine that worked, and then what happened later.”

Wu Siyue, "My God, if I hadn't met you, the people in Liu's house would have been buried in the sea of ​​flames. There is no proof of death, and those refugees who died tragically would not have been discovered. Fortunately, the Skynet has been restored. By the way, Sun Cong, why did you rush at this time? How about setting fire to the Liu residence?"

Chunyu Ye looked at Mu Ruyu, "I went to check on this Sun Cong. If we hadn't found out about this, he would be transferred to Muhui Prefecture in a few days, and the new Qingya County Prime Minister hadn't arrived yet." come over."

When Wu Siyue heard this, he felt his hairs stand on end, "You mean, he wants to silence him! The people in Liu's house have been insane for so long, so it's not surprising that he's still in Qingya County, so he can be hastily exposed." , lest the Qingya County Prime Minister..."

"Yes," Mu Ruyu nodded.

"Oh my god!" Wu Siyue exclaimed again, naturally not because of surprise.

Mu Ruyu, "Have you finished asking?"

Wu Siyue, "Yeah, um, I don't have anything to ask."

Mu Ruyu, "Then why don't you leave?"

Wu Siyue, "Here, aren't you still here, Your Highness?"

Mu Ruyu, "Yes, you can go and interrogate that Sun Cong again, you don't need to stay with me."

Wu Siyue said again: "This, Chun Yu Cha Ling Shi..."

Mu Ruyu felt that he was simple, "Didn't you see that Chunyu Charing Shi is very tired, you should go."

Wu Siyue, "Okay, okay, I'm leaving now."

Chunyu Yelai smiled slightly and looked at them.He was really tired, the wound that seemed to have healed was bleeding faintly, Mu Ruyu must have noticed it too.
