Chapter 96 Arrival in Yunzhou City

Bai Hu Yaoyao looked at Ouyang Jingwo, who was still in a daze, and asked, "Are you alright?"

Did I scare the child?

Ouyang Jingwo finally came to his senses, and it took him a long time to react, "You...?"

He had a thousand words to say but couldn't bring himself to ask, nor did he know how to ask.

He knew the young lady was extraordinary, but he didn't expect her to be this extraordinary.

Was the power she just used even possible for a human?
Hundreds of drug addicts were killed without hesitation, leaving not even a trace.

Instant kill? This is an instant kill?
At that moment, my admiration for Ouyang Jing reached its peak.

My long-calm heart began to surge with emotion at this moment.

"Want to learn?" Bai Hu Yaoyao tilted her head to look at him.

Bai Hu Yaoyao still admires Ouyang Jingwo; there must be some secret about him.

She didn't want to delve into his secrets, nor did she want to control him.

It's simply curiosity about someone who has a secret.

It's like encountering your prey, teasing him while peeling back his disguise to see his innermost heart.

Bai Hu Yaoyao and Ouyang Jing are in the same situation.

Ouyang Jing: I can't believe it. "You're willing to teach me?"

The surprise came so quickly that his heart pounded like a drum.

This terrifying power is beyond human capabilities; perhaps his guess is correct.

Miss is a fairy.

"Of course I can teach you! It's just that with all these poisoned people suddenly appearing here, there are probably quite a few refugees from Yunzhou City."

These people have been poisoned, or rather, someone is using refugees as human subjects for some kind of experiment.

These people who were used for drugging all looked like ordinary civilians. Only refugees could be used to make such a large number of people for drugging.

These medicine-using people came from the direction of Yunzhou City, and their origin should be in Yunzhou City.

If someone is using refugees for experiments, they shouldn't be letting these people out in the first place.

How did these drug-impaired people manage to escape on their own?

The two returned to the carriage.

Ouyang Jingwo's expression became much more serious, and he told me what he knew.

"You mean someone wanted to refine an elixir of immortality and that's why they created so many medicinal humans?" White Fox Yaoyao finally understood.

Those fake sorcerers in the past all wanted to use alchemy to concoct elixirs of immortality.

The medicine contained a large amount of mercury and other substances; consuming it would only lead to death.

She wondered why all these patients showed signs of mercury poisoning.

The skin of those people who were treated with the medicine turned bluish-purple; it was the mercury that was causing the problem.

Those drug-treated people have lost all human senses, even their consciousness, and have become complete drug-treated puppets.

"That's right! Ten years ago, a group of people using this drug appeared on the battlefield. That battle was extremely fierce. I was too young to go to the battlefield at that time, and I didn't see the situation on the battlefield with my own eyes."

"But later I heard that all the medicine men had disappeared, and the imperial advisor who made them was also killed."

“I didn’t expect to see the same kind of drugged person here.” Ouyang Jingwo said with a solemn expression.

This situation is not a good sign.

Bai Hu Yaoyao thought of Aunt Xiao's appearance, which was similar to the situation of these medicine people.

However, Aunt Xiao's condition was much milder.

Aunt Xiao said that's why it looked like that while she was mining in a mine, and she believed that Aunt Xiao wasn't lying.

That mine belongs to the Lin family, which means the Lin family is just a small fry; there are others behind them.

The Lin family not only mined iron ore from the mines, but also extracted mercury-containing ore to supply the people behind them.

Thinking of this, Bai Hu Yaoyao felt a little annoyed. Now everyone in the Lin family had gone mad, and she couldn't get any information out of them.

"Let's take it one step at a time! These people can't do much harm to me, but it's the ordinary people who suffer."

“We are just ordinary people, these things should be handled by the imperial court.”

Bai Hu Yaoyao took out a communication stone and told Old Master Huo about the situation here.

No matter how much the emperor feared Huo Lao, he was still an old general of the Western Moon Kingdom, and it was best to have him tell the emperor.

Old Master Huo hadn't rested yet and was staring blankly at a letter when he heard the sound transmission stone move.

He took out the communication stone, and the virtual figure of the white fox Yaoyao appeared before him. "Yaoyao, why are you thinking of this old man in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

The communication stone that Yaoyao gave him is still the best!

We can talk face-to-face.

"Mr. Huo, I apologize for bothering you so late at night. The matter is urgent, so I can only contact you at night."

“It’s like this…”

The white fox Yaoyao recounted the situation she had encountered.

Old Master Huo's expression grew even more serious. "Girl, I know what you're saying. I just received a letter saying that some refugees have disappeared around Yunzhou City, and I've also encountered one or two of these drugged people. I didn't expect you to have encountered so many?"

"Are you injured? I'm also setting off for Yunzhou City tomorrow to investigate this matter."

I had planned to go back to Kyoto after the New Year, but it seems I won't be able to go back now.

Let's resolve things here first.

Bai Hu Yaoyao didn't expect that Elder Huo had already received the news about this matter, so she didn't need to worry about it.

"Mr. Huo, if you need anything while you're in Yunzhou City, please feel free to contact me."

After saying that, he hung up the communication stone.

The purple sound transmission stone on the table shimmered with a purple light.

I glanced at Ouyang Jingwo and said, "You should go and rest too! Someone else is handling this matter. We just need to focus on making money."

Then he went to his bedroom.

I sighed and returned to my room.

Nothing happened all night.

We set off once again.

The further the carriage went, the more refugees it saw.

Many people have frozen to death on the roadside in the dead of winter.

Those who were still alive were about to freeze to death.

The white fox Yaoyao looked on, her eyes devoid of any emotion.

The deaths of these people evoked no pity in her.

Ouyang Jing smiled slightly. It's good that Miss didn't go down to save people out of kindness.

It's not that they lack compassion, but rather that the refugees are beyond saving right now.

There were only two of them; it wouldn't be good if they were being watched.

These are all ordinary people, not those drug addicts; they can't do anything about it.

The carriage arrived in Yunzhou City at dusk.

Many soup kitchens have been set up outside the city, and many soldiers are patrolling to prevent riots.

Many refugees lived in thatched huts built outside the city.

It's the dead of winter now, and it's impossible to stay warm inside.

“No wonder there aren’t many refugees in Peach Blossom Town; they’ve all come here,” said the white fox, Yaoyao.

Peach Blossom Town is just a small town; even if there were relief supplies, they wouldn't be sent there.

That's why these refugees came to Yunzhou City.

“Miss, shall we go directly to Qibaozhai?” Ouyang Jingwo asked.

The location for Qibaozhai in Yunzhou City has been chosen by Dong Chen'an.

Everything was ready, and all that was left was for the white fox Yaoyao to deliver those treasures.

Dong Chen'an also arranged accommodations for them on the third floor of Qibaozhai.

"Yes, let's go straight to Qibaozhai." Baihu Yaoyao looked at the scene in the city and sighed silently.

Yunzhou City was already bustling, and even the dead of winter couldn't dampen people's enthusiasm.

The wide streets were bustling with traffic.

Small vendors roam the streets and alleys, their shouts never ceasing.

The area outside and inside the city is like two completely different worlds.

Outside the city, cries of agony filled the air; inside, however, songs and dances filled the air.

That concludes today's update.
