Legend of Monsters: The Prince Saw a Ghost Alive

Chapter 13 Riot
Fortunately, he ran fast last night and stayed in the ancestral hall all night so he was safe and sound.

Bei Jiuyuan sat on the bluestone steps without moving, with a white shirt and black robe stretching across the floor, his description was clear and soft.He said, "Have you found anything?"

The doctor bowed to Bei Jiuyuan: "Your Excellency, you should listen to General Zhang and evacuate outside the village as soon as possible." Bei Jiuyuan remained silent, and he continued, "Last night, the officer checked a few patients to see if their symptoms were normal. It's like getting the plague, more like being poisoned."

"What poison?"

The doctor said: "This little official doesn't dare to jump to conclusions, but as the toxicity deepens, they will lose their minds and go crazy. It's like... just like..."

Bei Jiuyuan narrowed his eyes, and said neither happy nor angry: "It's like the orcs in the Southern Wilderness." Many years ago, someone transplanted animal blood into the human body, trying to cultivate a physique as strong as the orcs, but failed later up.

Speaking of this, the villagers were all driven to other places, so apart from Bei Jiuyuan and the doctor, with two officers and soldiers on duty, the only thing left was Qingchi.

She didn't know whether she should be lucky or unlucky, but she was not driven away and heard such a confidential matter.

She has never been to the Southern Wilderness, but she has heard about the orcs there from her master.It is said that he is eight feet tall and has a beast head and a human body. He is very strong and burly, and he is cruel and aggressive by nature.But for many years, there has been a strong barrier between Beiheng and Nanhuang, making it impossible for the orcs to break through. More importantly, Beiheng has a majestic King of War, and the orcs dare not invade.Therefore, there is no dispute between Beiheng and Nanhuang for the time being.

Could it be that the illness of these villagers has something to do with the orcs?Qingchi thought of their symptoms after getting sick, although he had never seen a beastman, he felt that they were almost the same.But the orcs were trapped in the Southern Wilderness, so how could they come to the land of Beiheng to make trouble?

Because of this, the matter is so important that the doctor dare not speak nonsense, everything is just suspicion.

Bei Jiuyuan asked: "Can you go and investigate carefully, what is the cause of the poisoning infection?"

The doctor said: "I haven't had time to figure this out yet, but the disease comes from the mouth, and it must be related to the daily diet of the villagers. It's just that the villagers with the disease are not specific, unless all the villagers with the disease touched or ate the same thing. Or...the villagers in the whole village have eaten it, and it's only a matter of time before they get sick...so adults should evacuate as soon as possible."

Later, the villagers made tea and served it to quench everyone's thirst.Qing Chi looked at the tea water thoughtfully.Bei Jiuyuan immediately ordered: "The order continues, and until the cause of the disease is clarified, everyone outside is not allowed to eat anything in the village."

When Bei Jiuyuan turned his head, he saw Qing Chi's face troubled like constipation.Qingchi met Shangbei Jiuyuan's suspicious gaze, and said melancholy: "Pindao suddenly remembered that he just had a meal here yesterday... Could it be that he is about to be poisoned?"

No, she can't do anything.She still has to go back to Qishan, and she still has to inherit her master's inheritance... No, there is still a master to retire from, and a lot of years to waste... The more she thinks about it, the more sad Qingchi becomes, "I only eat one meal a day , until now Pindao is still hungry... What a crime."

Bei Jiuyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "If you're really hungry, you can eat as much as you want. Even if the food is really poisonous, you won't become an orc. Well, at most, it's a little hard to digest."

She didn't know that her physique was the same as that of Bei Jiuyuan, invulnerable to all poisons.

Qing Chi still sensibly refused: "Let's forget it, Pindao still wants to live for a few more years." When he lowered his head, Qing Chi saw that Bei Jiuyuan's forehead was still wrapped around his palm, and there were faint traces of her blood on it , but the feel remains the same, still comfortable and smooth.The scar on Qingchi's palm was not deep, and the bleeding had stopped at this moment, so she took off the forehead guard reluctantly, stroked the gemstone on it twice, and then handed it back to Bei Jiuyuan, "By the way, this is for you."

Bei Jiuyuan only glanced at it lightly, and raised his eyebrows: "Just pay me back like this? Shouldn't it be washed clean?"

Qingchi was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face, and he tucked the forehead protector into the sleeve robe in a kind manner, "You are right, the poor should be washed clean before returning it to you."

If the epidemic was really caused by the poison of animal blood, then the incidence of the disease in the villagers is uncertain, and it is determined according to their own physique.The remaining villagers in the ancestral temple didn't even know if they were poisoned or not.

However, for some reason, after last night, villagers continued to suffer from poisoning, and the speed of poisoning was astonishingly fast.Just this morning, more than [-] people fell ill.

Later, Bei Jiuyuan and Qing Chi found an ancient well in the village, and found that the water in the ancient well was strange, but they didn't know that the villagers had just boiled tea with this well water this morning.However, before there was time to check it carefully, someone came to report in a hurry, saying that there was a riot in the ancestral hall.

It turned out that more and more villagers were sick, and the villagers didn't want their relatives to be disposed of like this, and the villagers who got sick didn't want to die like this, so the two sides scratched and wrestled. Quickly, fighting and roaring, even the officers and soldiers could no longer hold back.

Before arriving at the ancestral hall, Qing Chi felt that the top of his head was gloomy.She looked up, and although she didn't know how serious the situation was, she also felt that something was wrong.I saw that the last trace of righteousness lingering on the ridge of the ancestral hall was swallowed by the filth, and the atmosphere of the whole village was strange and chaotic. In this situation, monsters and chaos must appear.

But Qingchi could not be allowed to back down, and the riots in the ancestral hall soon spread.The villagers who were injured and bitten by the zombies finally got their injuries under control. They didn't want to be infected by the sinister and evil aura, and the spread of the corpse aura could not be contained.They were the first to attack the living, and the one who walked out the front of the ancestral hall was that Wu Xiaopang.

Their corpses have changed, even the most powerful Taoist priests are powerless to recover.

Bei Jiuyuan's reaction was much faster than Qingchi's. He moved forward, and before they turned into powerful zombies, he drew out a sword and wiped them out completely.

At this moment, Qing Chi found out with shock that the other villagers who were still awake were vomiting and diarrhea, all of which were symptoms of poisoning.They flocked to the officers and soldiers like crazy, scratching and biting, the virus multiplied and spread in new bodies through the wounds, and one by one the officers and soldiers became the same people as them.

Perhaps the doctor was right, the whole village was poisoned.It's just because of differences in physique, or because of some incentives, that the virus broke out like this.

Bei Jiuyuan took cover in front of Qingchi, repelled the surging villagers, and said coldly, "Why don't you run to the entrance of the village with all your strength?"

Qing Chi was completely pulled back to reality, seeing such a bloody and biting scene, he was so scared that he almost lost his heart on the spot.If I had known this, I shouldn't have returned to the village last night, and I wouldn't be able to save them if I came back.Or if they had withdrawn from the village earlier, such a thing would not have happened.
