Chapter 12

At dawn, the eastern sky was burning red like this fire.Unsurprisingly, today is a beautiful day.

Qing Chi originally thought that it would take only half a night to handle the matter properly.Unexpectedly, this move would lead to dawn, and now it seems that whether she can leave smoothly is still unknown.

After dealing with the matter here, Qing Chi and Bei Jiuyuan returned to the ancestral temple.Now that the officers and soldiers have fully controlled the village, the villagers dare not move rashly, and all gather in one place to wait for punishment.

In the ancestral hall, the villagers who had been bitten by zombies all lay down neatly on the ground.Those with minor injuries have improved, some with more serious injuries fell into a coma, and some woke up with vomiting and diarrhea.Among them, Wu Xiaopang's situation is the most serious. The corpse poison has spread all over his body, and he is now in a coma with his last breath left.

All the licorice and glutinous rice bags that Qingchi removed from his wound had turned black, and he had to keep replacing them with fresh ones.

When he was so busy, Qing Chi was taken aback by a sudden "Taoist!" from behind.A villager said anxiously: "Master Daoist, this lord is also injured! Come and have a look!"

When Qingchi turned his head, he saw Bei Jiuyuan sitting on the bluestone steps in front of the ancestral hall.The faint rays of sunlight brightened his figure, making him spotless.The two villagers around him didn't know Bei Jiuyuan's identity because they had been staying in the village. They were more anxious than him when they found out that Bei Jiuyuan was injured for fear of being infected with the corpse poison.Bei Jiuyuan's reaction was just too calm.

His hand had been covered under the toga before, but Qingchi didn't notice it, but now he looked carefully and found that there was a wound on the back of the hand, which looked like it was scratched by a zombie, and the wound was black.However, he still acted as if nothing had happened, allowing the black and red blood to flow from the wound on the back of his hand, and drip from his slender and slightly curved fingers onto the bluestone steps.

Qingchi hurriedly came over and sat beside him, grabbed the back of his hand with one hand, grabbed a bag of glutinous rice mixed with licorice and applied it on it, and said solemnly: "Why don't you say you're injured, don't underestimate this wound, even though the wound is It's small, but if it gets infected with corpse poison, the consequences will be serious, and it might turn into a zombie." The glutinous rice absorbs water very well, and soon it is covered with black and red blood.

Bei Jiuyuan didn't pay much attention to it, seeing that Qingchi was so strict, he let her go.Anyway, he won't turn into a zombie whether he sucks out the toxin or not.He didn't know how he was injured, maybe because there were too many opponents before and he couldn't take care of it for a while, that's why the zombie got close to him.

Qing Chi kept holding onto his hand.It was a cold hand, but it was very powerful. The veins on the back of the hand were somewhat prominent, the nails were round and neat, and the joints of the five fingers were distinct, very beautiful.

But Qingchi is different from Beijiuyuan.Each has a different physique, but Qingchi's hand is very warm.That warmth was very comfortable, as if it could penetrate into Bei Jiuyuan's heart.In this way, it seems that she can do whatever she wants.

Qing Chi seldom sees such beautiful hands, and they still grow on a man.It's just that if there is a scar on the back of this hand, it is simply a kind of desecration of beautiful things.

Qing Chi kept sucking until the color of the glutinous rice finally turned bright red, and she was relieved.

And Bei Jiuyuan also calmed down, the indifference and murderous aura of the murder faded away from his body, and he turned back to the approachable passerby in the first half of the night.It seems that his body has never been contaminated with blood, and has always been clean and clear.

Qingchi wrapped his hands with a cloth strip, looked at him, and then talked to him again: "So you are not a passerby, but the leader of that officer and soldier."

Bei Jiuyuan looked down at her, smiled calmly and said, "Do you still want to send me home now?"

Qingchi said desolately: "It's definitely not the turn of the poor to see you off. If you can let the officers and soldiers leave the poor, you will already be showing mercy."

Bei Jiuyuan said: "Don't worry, Taoist priest, once this matter is over, I will not only let you go, but also send you home."

Qing Chi blinked, thinking that this is not bad.

Bei Jiuyuan's gaze fell on Qingchi's shoulder again, and asked, "How about the injury on your shoulder?"

It's good that he didn't mention it, Qingchi had already forgotten the pain.Qing Chi lowered his head and looked over his shoulder, seeing that half of his shoulders were covered in blood, he suddenly felt unwell, and said: "Pundao suddenly felt a little dizzy again..."

While talking, the leader of the officers and soldiers was walking towards here with a half-old man.After receiving Bei Jiuyuan's signal, the people below respectfully addressed him as "Master", instead of calling him "His Royal Highness Zhan Wang" with great fanfare.Yue Mo didn't want to cause more panic and confusion among other villagers.

The leader saw the injury on Bei Jiuyuan's hand, and said quickly: "My lord, let the doctor examine it carefully for you, this injury cannot be careless."

Bei Jiuyuan said calmly: "No need, the Taoist priest has already taken care of it for me."

The leader was still worried, and said: "Your Excellency had contact with the plague patients last night, and my subordinates are worried about the health of the lord... According to my subordinates," he leaned forward and lowered his voice respectfully, "Please also transfer your lord to the hospital as soon as possible." Detailed diagnosis outside the village, the villagers here should deal with it immediately."

After hearing this, Bei Jiuyuan was noncommittal, and only asked, "In your opinion, is this just an ordinary plague?"

Hearing what Bei Jiuyuan said, a look of solemnity appeared on the face of the leader of the officers and soldiers, and he no longer agreed.

Qing Chi could hear clearly from the side, and she also knew that it was not as simple as the plague. If the villagers really got the plague, shouldn't they be weak and die of illness, but seeing what happened last night, it was not the case at all.It's just that she only reserved her opinion, but didn't interrupt.

It would be unreasonable to say that she just wanted to get out of here quickly, but that was the only thought in her heart.

But the leaders of the officers and soldiers should be worried. If Bei Jiuyuan is really infected with the plague, he will basically lose his head.Bei Jiuyuan said again: "I will leave the village later, how many villagers are there in the village right now?"

The leaders of the officers and soldiers truthfully reported the number, how many were killed and injured, and how many were left, it was very clear.

Later, another villager fell ill one after another, and Bei Jiuyuan stopped delaying, and immediately let the officers and soldiers drag away to deal with it.Whenever the sick villagers are handed over to the officers and soldiers, there is only one end.No matter how the villagers cried and begged for mercy at the time of life and death, Bei Jiuyuan was stern and unwavering.

Qingchi knew that he was thinking about the overall situation, otherwise there would be a few more zombies or beast-like patients, and he didn't know how many people would suffer.

If Bei Jiuyuan was really a ruthless person, he could have left immediately and set Wuji Village on fire.But he didn't do that.

The leader led people to do things, and Bei Jiuyuan left the doctor behind.The doctor is a close friend of Bei Jiuyuan, since he entered the village last night, he followed Bei Jiuyuan's instructions to investigate the condition here.Right now, the solemn look on his face surpassed everyone else.
