They did not let their guard down. A dozen or so people continued to point long and guns at them, and two others were sent to check with torches.
I took a picture of the torch, and I saw dozens of carts hidden in the dark, with medicinal materials and food on them.
"It's a non-venomous black-headed snake. It won't kill you if you bite it. Stop howling."
Another person stepped forward with a torch, and by the light of the fire, the big guy found that the snake was still biting the pale servant.
The man recognized it carefully and knew that this was a non-venomous snake, which is very common in the wild. He lifted his hand and took it off, rolled it into a ball in his hand, and then threw it hard with his strong right arm, and the snake was killed. I lost it all the way, and after a while, I heard the movement of the grass and trees shaking.
The servant listened, and his body stopped shaking. He looked down at the wound on his wrist, the blood was bright red, and there was no sign of poisoning.
"But when you go back, you should rinse it with clean water and apply some anti-swelling medicine, so that the wound will heal faster."
The movement here also alerted the people in front of the team, so the team stopped.
At the front of the team, the man dressed as a scribe had gloomy eyes, like thick ink that couldn't be melted, "What happened?"
"I found a suspicious group of people who claimed to be helping the people of Shangjing transport food and medicine."
Hearing this, the man raised his eyebrows lightly, "Oh? Take me to see it. If you really want to benefit the people, why do you need to cover up?"
"Sir, Meng will come with you." There was another strong man with a thick beard next to the man. His muscles seemed to burst the dark brown on his body. His muscles were piece by piece. What an explosive power.
Huang Tan took a thousand imperial guards and five hundred stone grains and entered through another collapsed east gate in Shangjing.
The Imperial Army held hundreds of torches high, looking like a slow-moving fireball floating in the air from a distance.
Huang Tan half-squinted his eyes and saw the surrounding situation through the firelight, and couldn't help but sighed that natural disasters cannot be resisted by human beings.
Shangjing, which was bustling and lively two days ago, has now been turned into ruins, and the night wind carries an indescribable stench.
He took out the handkerchief from his arms in disgust, held it over the tip of his nose, and raised his hand.
"Walk-"
At this time, a feeble cry for help came from under the collapsed ruins.
"Help... help, help..."
Such a weak voice, coupled with today's night, is somewhat permeating.
The guards were in turmoil, and many people showed fear, but Huang Tan's face remained unchanged, and he waved his hand.
"The decree is important, don't delay."
Shangjing has become a dead city, even if Huang Tan is such a big eunuch who is used to seeing the world, he can't help but stand upright at the moment.
Jiang Pengji lived in the east of the city, and the camp was also set up in the east area of the city. Huang Tan and his party entered the city from the east gate. It would reduce Huang Tan's trouble finding someone.
"Is Liu's Erlang available?"
Huang Tan led people to announce the decree, and the movement caused by the journey was not small. Feng Jin saw it from a distance and was ready to receive the decree in advance.
Feng Jin said neither humble nor arrogant, "Erlang led people to search and rescue the people, but he won't be able to come back in a while, so he asked the angel to rest for a while."
Huang Tan didn't seem to be squinting, but in fact, he had already used his peripheral vision to scan the rough camp.
The ears were filled with the pain of Shen Yin, and there was a little medicinal fragrance in the air, more of which was a strong and choking bloody smell. The more I smelled it, I always felt that my stomach was tumbling and my throat had a sour taste, "This is all. What does it taste like?"
Huang Tan, as a great eunuch, was pampered and pampered, and Feng Jin, as the son of a noble family, did he grow up rolling in the mud
He couldn't stand it either. He just thought of the tragic situation of the people in the earthquake, and these discomforts were nothing.
Seeing his frowning, Feng Jin thought of a compromise, "Angel forgive me, the camp is rough and unclean, and many people are hurt. In order to prevent the filth on the people from colliding with the angel, Jin dared to ask the angel to stay in another place for a while. , Jin sent someone to call Erlang-Jun back."
He coaxed Huang Tan to the side and waited, where a small shed was built, a smoker was set up, and sandalwood was burning, but it diluted the peculiar smell in the air.
Huang Tan sat down on the Maza, his eyes sweeping openly.
Seeing a pile of shadows like hills in the distance, he pointed and asked, "What is that?"
It was downwind now, and the smell wafting over there was particularly foul. If there were two incense burners by his side, he would have vomited.
Feng Jin followed along, showing a wry smile, and responded, "Return to the angel, those people are all people who unfortunately lost their lives during the earthquake. Now the weather is hot, there are many flies, and the corpses are not easy to preserve, but they can rot in three to five days. Maggots are born. The corpses stink and rot. If they are not handled properly, it will easily lead to various diseases. So during the search and rescue, these corpses were dug up and buried later. "
At first, Huang Tan could still listen calmly, but as Feng Jin spoke, the blush on his face slowly faded, turned pale, and then turned to ashen... His eyesight is not bad, and he can see the piles clearly in the night. The outline of the "hill"...
Such a high "hill" pile is actually made of corpses...
Thinking of this, Huang Tan couldn't bear it any longer, his stomach tumbling, and a stream of yellow acid spit out from his mouth. Among the filth was undigested abalone, shark fins, fatty meat, etc... Feng Jin glanced secretly. , a faint sneer twitched at the corner of his mouth.
After waiting for a stick of incense, Huang Tan thought of the shadow of the "hill" not far away, and became more and more unable to sit still, feeling as uncomfortable as sitting on pins and needles.
Fortunately, at this time, the "Sound of Heaven" came from a distance, and the master's son Liu Xi arrived.
Huang Tan had seen Liu Xi before, a handsome, arrogant-looking young man from a noble clan, if he grew a year or two longer, he would be the lover of countless girls in the boudoir. Now that they meet again, Huang Tan almost suspects that he is dizzy, and the person in front of him is actually Liu Xi
Jiang Pengji saw Huang Tan's appearance, and then looked down at her own image, frowning inwardly.
She knew that she looked like a beggar who hadn't bathed in two or three years. Her sleeves were mutilated, her clothes were stained with blood and other filth, and her original color could not be seen at all. The gray stains were mixed with sweat, and she died. Sticking to his face, he almost couldn't see his original appearance.
Not to mention that Jiang Pengji's hands were bloody, and her feet were tied with thick coarse cloth, and she had worn away only a few fragments.
Not to mention beggars, even those who have escaped the famine for more than ten years, look cleaner than her.
"Liu Shi's Erlang accepts the order."
In view of Jiang Pengji's miserable appearance, Huang Tan couldn't help but look away, and felt a sense of emotion in his heart for no reason. He believed that Liu Xi really had a benevolent heart and was only for the common people, not those pretentious insects, who could say flowers with a good voice. Flowers, but the hands are motionless.
"Liu Xi, the grass-man, kneel to meet the divine will of the Son of Heaven."
Huang Tan took out a roll of delicate silk from his sleeve, unfolded it slowly, and read it out in a sharp voice.
another place—
"Yo - long time no see, how can Xiaoyu be so embarrassed?" The young literati rode on the horse, showing a slightly amused smile.
Xu Ke's eyes widened in astonishment, unable to believe it.
"Why are you here?"
