Chapter 343 Chapter 343: Chaos in the Northwest (6)
Outside Fugu City, one hundred miles north of the mountains.
There are two villages surnamed Zhou located near here.
The ones with high terrain are called "Shangzhou Village".
The low-lying village is called "Next Week Village".
There were originally more than 130 households in the two villages.
One hundred feet away from the original site of the village.
The path leading to the village has been covered by overgrown weeds. A burly black man dressed in coarse Gebu clothes has a sharp woodcutter stuck in his waist. Under the attack of the hatchet, all the dense weeds half as tall as a man fell down, creating a path.
The strong black man took the lead, followed by the man in Confucian shirt.
Not long after, a strange face set foot in this deserted village two or three years after the epidemic.
There is no one inhabiting it, and there is no sound.
Due to the lack of popularity for a long time, the original houses of the common people were occupied by insects and ants, and collapsed under the erosion of wind and rain. Finally, they were covered by unbridled bushes and covered with greenery. This situation makes people feel inexplicably chilly.
The strong black man wiped a handful of sweat casually.
Put the hatchet back on your waist.
“Sir, this is the former Zhouzhou Village.”
An epidemic broke out in two villages and they were sealed off. More than 130 families died, leaving only a dozen families with about 20 people alive. The previous county guard was worried that the disease was still lurking in the village, so he sent people to forcibly move the surviving common people to other villages.
Zhangzhou Village and Zhouzhou Village were forcibly sealed.
The young man frowned, looked around, raised his hand to clear away the stale air on the tip of his nose: "Shou Sheng, you and I will look around."
The strong black man who was called "Shou Sheng" nodded. Yes.
These two people are Gu Chi and Li Li who came to investigate the epidemic village. "Shou Sheng" was the name Li Li's wife gave him back then. Li Li's family name was "Lu" and he didn't have a proper name, so the lady gave him the character "Jue", which also means "Shou Sheng".
From "Finally going over the edge is unexpected."
It also has the meaning of surviving from desperate situations.
Li Li is actually a nickname.
It was a little love affair between him and his wife.
Now that he has a serious name and nickname, the nickname "Li Li" is not suitable. Gu Chi and others directly call him by his nickname.
Li Li, that is, Lu Jue, did not dare to stay too far away from Gu Chi, and the abandoned village was not big. It only took the two of them a quarter of an hour to walk around and found nothing out of the ordinary.
Gu Chi said with an indifferent look, "Go to Zhouzhou Village to have a look."
Lu Jue still took the lead.
After a while, the two figures gradually disappeared.
About half a quarter of an hour passed, and two figures appeared in the corner of the ruins of the previously empty house. The two men were haggard and haggard, their faces were covered with greasy dirt, and their long hair was stained with yellow and white dander. Although their clothes were old, they could be seen to be of exquisite workmanship.
There was still anger on one person's face.
Seeing Gu Chi and the others leaving, he scolded in a low voice.
“Why didn’t you kill him just now?” He wanted to stab Gu Chi in the back several times with a knife, but the two were only three steps away! As long as he moves quickly, Gu Chi will definitely die!
But the man next to him was greedy for life and fearful of death, so he stopped him.
“If I could kill, I would have killed already!”
The problem is that Gu Chijin is very vigilant and always on guard! If they can't kill with one blow, they will be the ones who die.
“Afraid of death!”
“Who do you think is greedy of life and afraid of death?”
However, what the two did not expect was——
"Is this epidemic caused by you?"
An unfamiliar and indifferent male voice quietly reached my ears.
The two of them were so frightened by the voice that they stopped following the voice to see who the male voice was and ran for their lives in the opposite direction. One person even used word spirit to assist.
"Can you escape?" Sure enough, before the two of them could escape far, they were thrown away by the wind rising from their feet. Another strong black figure blocked their escape path. It was the figure who had just left. Gu Chi and Lu Jue. Before the two of them could despair, Lu Jue picked up one person's neck with one hand like a chicken, and threw it to the ground with all his strength.
Rolled on the ground several times and rolled to Gu Chi's feet.
As for the other person?
Lu Jue kicked him directly in the knee.
Remove the opponent's chin.
He threatened in a cold voice: "If you dare to run away, I will cut out your tongue!"
Gu Chi came up with his sword and glanced at the man contemptuously. The blade of the sword was pressed against his throat: "I I thought he was just a half-hearted scribe. It’s rare to be in such a state of desolation. Tell me, how did you spread the epidemic?”
"Bah!"
spatted a mouthful of fishy saliva.
Obviously unwilling to cooperate with Gu Chi.
"Hahaha, you want to know? I told King Yama, and I won't tell you, this thief's lackey!"
I still want to disgust Gu Chi when I'm about to die, But Lu Jue didn't have a good temper. When he saw him humiliating Gu Chi, he raised his hand and slapped him. Snap! The slap made the man's head buzz, and his head was almost blown off his neck by the force.
The sky and the earth rotate, and the colors are reversed.
Snaky little red snakes flowed out from the ears, nostrils, and corners of the mouth. I lost my hearing instantly and it took a long time to regain my composure.
Gu Chi said: "Shou Sheng, don't beat him to death."
He is only good at digging out secrets from the mouths of living people.
It becomes difficult to operate when the person is dead.
"Don't worry, sir, you will never strike with caution."
You will not die if you die.
I won't die for at least a while.
Without much effort, Gu Chi used his spirit of speech to pull out the secrets from their mouths - as expected, the two of them were the "fish that slipped through the net" of several local gangsters in Fugu City.
They hold a grudge and always want to kill Shen Tang.
However, Shen Tang managed Fu Gu better and better, and the people came to support her wholeheartedly. They tried several times but failed, unable to instigate the people to live in chaos, and almost exposed themselves. Not willing to go far away, he kept wandering around, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Shangzhoucun and Zhouzhoucun have been abandoned for many years.
Normally no common people will come close.
Great for hiding.
Just when they were cursing the sky and the earth, God seemed to answer them. After the summer, there was a heavy rain. The rain in the middle of the night washed away a certain tomb, revealing the corpse pit buried under the tomb.
The corpses in the corpse pit are the common people who died of the last epidemic. Seeing this, the two of them came up with a vicious idea to spread the disease from the corpse to Fugu City! Even if Shen Tang can't be killed in one fell swoop, he can still take revenge on the heartless and unjust people of Fugu.
These common people depend on their family for their survival, and they deserve to be punished after their family's defeat.
Relying on their ability to protect themselves, they collected the carrion bugs from the corpse pit, fed them to the captured rats, and threw the rats into the well water connected to the treatment center.
Then I sat back and waited for the good news.
So, the epidemic in Fugu City is caused by them?
After hearing these words, Lu Jue was so angry that he wanted to punch a window in their heads. Do these bastards know how many people will be killed by the epidemic? How heart-rending! Can do such a thing! His cheeks tightened with anger and his eyes glared.
The anger is so strong that people dare not look directly at it.
Compared with him, Gu Chi is much calmer.
He is not surprised!
These people who once lost their glory and wealth and fell into the quagmire never put the lives of the common people in their eyes. They only vented their inner hatred and implicated everyone they thought deserved. Killing a whole family of people when someone is displeased is completely inhumane.
If a disease is released, only the common people and enemies will die.
They are happy when their enemies die, but when common people die?
Can the lives of common people be counted as lives?

This month’s fan title event has started.
Ridiculous, I actually wrote a letter on Lili’s name and village. That’s it for today, there are still two thousand words missing. I will make up for it on Sunday (I will definitely succeed this time)!
