Chapter 66: Strange Poison Attacks the City

Xuan Shaoning rushed up and waved Junwu in his hand and repeatedly attacked according to the opponent's vital parts. Shi Mingyu took off his fur coat and wanted to wrap his sword body, but was torn apart by the sword's edge. However, he used the gap to pull out his sword and pulled out his two swords, holding one with his left and right hands. The handle that Shi Mingyu held was in the middle of the blades on both sides. The upper and lower blades showed a certain arc in a clockwise and counterclockwise direction. Shi Mingyu took action, and he made the two double-headed swords turn into a strong and powerful sword. Although the blade was not long, it attacked and defended each other, forcing Xuan Shaoning to find no flaws.

Xie Yi and Cao Tie here also fought with Du Mo in a difficult way. Du Mo's weapon was actually a layer of iron helmet wrapped in two gloves. It was invulnerable to swords and guns, and it was amazing. He held the short sword in Cao Tie's hand tightly, twisted the sword body and wrapped it in his hand, and couldn't help but stunned Cao Tie.

"Hey! Why are you standing stupid? Waiting to be slaughtered?" Xie Yi shot an arrow from a distance again. Although Du Mo avoided it again, he woke up Cao Tie. He threw away the deformed short sword and reached out to Du Mo's chest. This punch seemed to hit the wall. Cao Tie only heard the sound of the bones of his fingers being broken. Before he could scream, Du Mo's iron fist had already reached the door. Cao Tie returned to defense with both hands and heard the sound of the bones on his wrists again. Cao Tie flew out from afar.

"Old Tie!"

While running around Dumo, Xie Yi kept shooting arrows until the quiver was empty. The arrows shot were either dodged by Dumo or broken by him. Xie Yi reached out to touch the quiver again and found that the arrows had been used up. In just a gap, Dumo had already rushed to the front of him before Xie Yi took action, and the iron fist had already hit the chest and abdomen. Xie Yi squirted blood and fell to the ground.

"It's my turn after you've had enough fun!"

Du Mo jumped up and planned to hit him at a high place and directly demanded Xie Yi's life, but was forced back by the cluster of arrows flying towards him. After landing, he turned around and found that there were many Xuanjia troops rushing behind him. After one round of shooting, he immediately filled up his position, leaving no extra space for Du Mo. The other side of Shi Mingyu was in the same situation. He had no time to take care of Xuan Shaoning and was forced to retreat by the rain of arrows. Finally, after being shot on his shoulder, Shi Mingyu was rescued by the few Donghu soldiers left in the military camp. While retreating, he shouted loudly, "Let the army return to defense and protect me!"

Ling Feiyan and Siheng struggled to stand up, and the man was standing between the two of them. He said expressionlessly: "I've had enough fun, it's time to send you on the road!" After that, he rushed towards Ling Feiyan. Seeing Ling Feiyan in danger, Siheng tried his best to rush over to help. Faced with the enemy's fierce attack, Ling Feiyan tightened his clenched Zheque and was about to fight to the death, but found that the man suddenly turned around after rushing halfway.

Oops, Siheng is in danger! Ling Feiyan reacted very quickly but was still not as fast as the man's skills. The half-moon scimitar in his hand had already pierced Siheng's chest and stabbed it into each other.

Ah! Ling Feiyan rushed up angrily and ignored the determination to die. The man was about to draw the knife but Siheng held it tightly. After trying several times, he could not pull it out. At this moment, he saw the determination in Siheng's eyes. Just as Ling Feiyan's Zheque cracked the man's back, the man jumped over in the air and pulled out the scimitar at the same time. Siheng fell into Ling Feiyan's arms in pain, and the two fell to the ground. Blood flowed out from Siheng's chest. Seeing that Siheng's consciousness was blurred a little, but there was such a fierce opponent in front of him. Ling Feiyan held Siheng with one hand and held Jieque with the other hand, and threw it to the other party's equally cruel eyes without retreating at all.

Humph! Still showing off! When the man was about to end the fight, a shrill horn came from the direction of the Donghu camp, and one more and more horn was calling for the Donghu to retreat. All the Donghu soldiers never expected that at the moment of victory, their general would actually call the gold to withdraw the troops!

"Master Arrodo, Lord Yaba has an order, we must withdraw our troops quickly!" The Donghu soldiers retreated one after another and headed towards the camp. Arrodo looked at the two people who had lost their power of resistance, put away their swords, and said, "Liang Gou, I will take your dog's life in the future!"

Seeing the Donghu army gradually fading away, Ling Feiyan relaxed and checked Siheng's injuries as soon as possible. "Wake up, don't fall asleep, cheer up!" Soon, other Xuan Armored Warriors also came to help.

Xiang Ang, who was injured in multiple places, ordered: "Call the call! Get in touch with other teams!"

Not long after, the other three troops responsible for harassing quickly arrived at the Nanmen to meet. Geng Yan, who arrived, saw the tragic tragedy of the Nanmen battlefield, was shocked. While sending people to block the other three gates to ensure that the Donghu army retreated completely, he immediately checked the casualties of Xiang Ang's troops.

"Commander Geng, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time. We should hurry up and enter the city!" Xiang Ang said.

"I understand, but Fengju City has been silent. There must be problems inside. No one can open the door for us at this moment. We must rely on ourselves!" Geng Yan said: "Climb the reinforcements in place, climb up the city wall immediately and open the city gate!"

Several flying claws flew up to the female wall. The climbing soldiers pulled the rope hard and found that the position was fixed and the wall was still motionless. They immediately began to climb along the city wall. Soon a few people climbed up to the wall. Soon after, the south city gate slowly opened. At this time, Xuan Shaoning, who had already achieved his goal, also led a team to arrive.

Looking at the empty streets, Fang Qi said vigilantly: "I'm afraid there are ambushes in the city!"

"If there is an ambush, you should have taken action when you fight to the death, but there is definitely a problem with Fengju!" Geng Yan ordered: "Fang Qi, you lead people to stay, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the other hand, on the other hand, take care of the wounded, and the others come to the city with me."

Through the slightly chaotic street, the Xuanjia Army headed towards the Fengju General's Mansion. Looking at the familiar scenes, things and people changed, Xuan Shaoning felt very uncomfortable. The same question lingered in his mind. "What happened? General Yang was strict in his army. Although Guangyuan's army was not large, his combat power was absolutely not weak. If the Donghu had invaded Fengju, according to the Donghu people's nature, they would never stop if they didn't rob them. Judging from the street scene, it didn't seem to have been robbed."

"Are you wondering what happened to Fengju City?" Shi Gong Zhengyuan walked to Xuan Shaoning and asked softly.

"You still understand me, what do you think?"

"I can't figure it out. The General's Mansion is ahead. You'll know if you arrive."

"Hey, you're just a big heart!"

"Otherwise? You can't even think of it even if you want to break your head. Why can't you get along with yourself?"

"Your incredible truth is very clear!"

"Shhh, here."

Xuan Shaoning saw the familiar General's Mansion and finally saw people here, but they were not people in the traditional sense, but corpses, all over the eyes. The General's Mansion was surrounded, and they were covered with water, layer by layer, some of which had already shown signs of corruption, and the smell of corpses was filled with the air.

"Seven days ago, the medical halls in Fengju City had successively appeared in medical courts. The symptoms were that they were weak all over, and some of them had bleeding from the seven orifices. Not only the people, but similar patients also appeared in Guangyuan's army. The disease spread very quickly. In just a few days, half of the people in Fengju City were sick. It happened that Donghu began to invade. While we were fighting on the top of the city, we also had to find ways to control the epidemic in the city. As the Donghu attacked more and more

As the people were coming more and more violently, and the people died more and more. General Yang ordered all the dead bodies to be placed in the east of the city, and all the people tried to get close to the general's mansion as much as possible, and ordered the doctors in the city to do their best to treat them. However, until the doctors died, the epidemic was still uncontrollable and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. General Yang himself became ill. Before he fell into a coma, he ordered Gu Junyuan to lead the people who had no symptoms to escape to Tianqi Temple in the west of the city, and ordered me to continue to lead troops to guard Fengjucheng."

After saying a long sentence, An Haoran obviously lost his energy and started coughing. Xuan Shaoning hurriedly handed the water he carried with him, and Master Gong Zhengyuan also called Yang Jie's pulse. He shook his head slightly at Xuan Shaoning. At this moment, Xuan Shaoning really hoped that Bai Luoyao could be on the scene and that she would definitely find a way to treat it. Unfortunately, An Nan was too far away.

"For the sake of the present plan, we must report the situation of the war and the situation of Fengju City to the general, and ask him to try to mobilize troops to garrison and treat the patients!" Geng Yan ordered, "Shi Gong Zhengyuan, you go and meet Fang Qi immediately, pack up the venue to place the wounded soldiers and patients separately; Xuan Shaoning, you can take people to patrol Fengju and go to Gu Junyuan!"

"yes!"

The situation of the three gates in the east, west and north of the gate is similar to that of the South Gate. Except for the Guangyuan Army soldiers who died on the city wall, there are no people on the streets. The bodies of the people are concentrated in the area near the center of the city and a huge pit in the north of the city. It can be seen that Yang Jie must have buried the dead people, and at the same time, the living people are concentrated in one area and handed over the outer city to the Guangyuan Army to deal with the attack of the Donghu army.

"The original intention is to protect the people, but unfortunately it was a failure in the end..." Xuan Shaoning lamented.

"Captain, do you think the people living in the city are all suffering from plague?" Qing Cang asked quietly.

"I don't look like it, I still think it should be poisoned."

"If it is poisoned, how could all the people in the city be poisoned?" Meng Kebao continued to ask.

Standing on the street, Xuan Shaoning held his chin and thought, "In a short period of time, so many people were poisoned at the same time, the most likely thing was water!"

"You mean someone poisoned the water!" Qing Cangqing couldn't help but shouted, and was knocked back to his head by Meng Kebao. "You are a big mouth-written problem, right?"

"Cao Tie is still recovering from his injuries now. I am not sorry that our Captain Xuan is smart!"

"The facts have not been confirmed yet. Captain Xuan has always been low-key and steady in his work. You have been following him for so long but still don't understand?"

"You understand!"

"Okay! You two have the energy to quarrel and hurry up and find Wei Gu. I want to go to the city to find water sources."

"If something happens to you, it's not that there is no helper. Why don't you let me go with me?" Meng Kebao suggested. Qing Cang was not willing to be outdone, "and you have to bring me with you!"

"This is an order. If you can't find Gu Duwei, do you two understand the military law?"

"Yes, I understand!"

Xuan Shaoning shook his head helplessly and scattered with the two at the fork in the street. Fengjucheng was built on the wasteland outside the border, and the water source was the first consideration when building the city. However, there was no river passing by around Fengju, so it must be diverting water from the underground. When he came back to Fengju, he found that the wealthy families had their own wells, and the poor families also shared a well. Yes, finding the wells can verify their inferences!

Xuan Shaoning pushed the door and entered a house. He picked up a bucket of water from the well and placed it in the courtyard to examine it carefully. The water quality was clear. Because the swaying water surface was rippling back and forth, there was no difference at all. Xuan Shaoning put his nose close and smelled it, and could smell the slight smell of earth.

Could it be that I was wrong? No, the water in the desert border is the most precious resource, which can make everyone in a city poisoned in a short time, and there is nothing else except water source! Xuan Shaoning glanced at the reflection on the water surface and found a black shadow flashing behind him. Xuan Shaoning stood up and turned around and pulled out a flying knife from his waist and threw it out in the direction of the black shadow moving. A series of movements were completed in the flash. When Xuan Shaoning stood firm, the flying knife had been inserted into the wooden door frame. The black shadow fell to the ground with a "ah" sound. When the black shadow turned to look in the direction of the attacker, the sword edge was already on his throat.

"Who?"

"I...I am a commoner in the city!"

It turned out to be a female voice! Xuan Shaoning's sword-holding force suddenly dropped a little, but his vigilance remained unabated, and he ordered, "Come into the courtyard!"

The black shadow slowly stood up and left the eaves under Xuan Shaoning's forced force. Xuan Shaoning saw the black shadow's face clearly: his messy bun, slightly dirty face, and his clothes were extremely ordinary numb shirts.

"What are you doing here sneakily? All the people in Fengju City have been transferred, why don't you go?"

The woman also saw clearly the person in front of her. She identified from the other party's armor that it was not the Donghu army. The uneasiness that had been hanging on her face faded a little. She replied submissively: "The little woman is a pharmacist at the Bai Family Pharmacy. How dare you ask this military master, has the Donghu people been defeated?"

"You are from Baijia Pharmacy? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"Go back to Jun Ye, I just came to Baijia Pharmacy a month ago. Jun Ye has been in the future pharmacy. I have never seen a little girl..."

"I am the captain of the Xuanjia Army. You don't have to be so afraid of me. The Donghu army has been defeated by us." Xuan Shaoning looked at the woman's trembling all over and felt unbearable. Seeing that her answer was not wrong, her expression was natural, so she put down the sword in her hand. "Since you are the people of Fengju City, why did you come here alone?"

"Return to Jun Ye, I saw the people around me dying. Judging from their deaths, the little woman thought the poisoning was suspicious, but the pharmacy staff, including the little woman, had been fine. Therefore, they felt that there must be medicinal materials for treating this poison in the pharmacy. However, the war outside the city was in trouble, and several pharmacies were unwilling to take risks. The little woman had to come and come to see the medicine. Just now, looking for medicinal materials in the pharmacy. Hearing a sound in the courtyard, he came over to take a look."
