"What else?" Ming Zhongxin frowned.

"Also, when we searched the city, we found that some people were eating dead bodies alive."

What the? Ming Zhongxin's eyes froze, and a terrifying look flashed in his eyes, "Why did such a terrifying thing happen?" ”

"After we restrained those people, we found that it was not their willingness, but only recently that we found out that for some reason when we saw those dead bodies would have the idea of sharing and eating them, and it was still an irrepressible urge to eat blood, and there was an irrepressible greed for raw meat." As he spoke, the student's face turned pale and shivered, and it was obvious that he was also shocked by this.

How many days did you find out? Ming Zhongxin's eyes were full of shock, there was still such a thing? Could it be that Maitreya would have developed such a terrible poison?

"Where are those people now?"

The students couldn't help but look at the house.

"Are there many people like this?" Ming Zhongxin asked with a frown.

"Not much! There are only a dozen people! And it's all under our control! ”

"Didn't find any other fish that slipped through the net?"

"Not really!"

"What else?" It seems that it is more serious than I imagined, Mingzhong sighed lightly in confidence.

"In addition to these things, there is also the fact that such a cruel thing happened among the people, and those squires and rich families turned a blind eye and did not come forward, and the door was still closed, and no one entered or exited."

Ming Zhongxin frowned, glanced at Mingyi, and wanted to hear some constructive advice.

Mingyi also smiled bitterly, what is the reason for such a situation, it is really elusive. I don't have a clue!

The only thing that is certain is that all of this must have something to do with the Maitreya scribes!

At present, the most important thing is to find out the root cause, solve the problem, and make a good future! Let the people regain their bodies and work in peace and contentment!

Obviously, Ming Zhongxin was also aware of this problem, and seeing that Mingyi just smiled bitterly, he stopped asking and moved forward.

"Let's go to a squire's house and ask!"

Ming Zhongxin took the lead and moved forward.

The students hurried to lead the way for Ming Zhongxin.

After saying nothing all the way, he came to the courtyard of a squire's house.

At the signal of Ming Zhongxin, the student stepped forward and knocked on the door of the courtyard.

For a long time, no one answered.

I couldn't help myself, the student increased the intensity of the knock, and in the rumbling knock, finally, with a squeak, the courtyard door opened a small crack, and a white-haired head stretched out, looked at the student, and then looked at Ming Zhongxin and Mingyi behind him, and said impatiently, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"This old man, my lord came to visit your master, please come back!" The student arched his hand.

"My master doesn't see any guests!"

The student frowned slightly, and then stepped forward.

"This old man, Yiliang is in a time of life and death at this time, why is he so rejecting people thousands of miles away?" Ming Zhongxin stepped forward and said in a low voice.

"Alas, it's the lord of the government again! Our master has already handed over the grain, so don't come to trouble again! The old butler looked Ming Zhongxin up and down, his face changed, and he pleaded.

When Ming Zhongxin heard the word "grain", his heart moved, "Uncle, did anyone come to ask for food?" Is it a government? ”

"Hey, aren't you from the government?" The old butler looked at Ming Zhongxin suspiciously.

"This is Master Ming, the staff member of the Great Throne of the Qincha!" Mingyi stepped forward and introduced, "If you have something, don't hesitate to say it!" ”

Ah, Lord Chincha? The old butler's eyes froze, and the light flashed, and then he regained his sincere fear, "I've seen my lord!" ”

Ming Zhongxin hugged the old housekeeper, "Uncle, I hope you will communicate to your master, Ming has something to ask!" ”

This? The old butler looked at Ming Zhongxin with an embarrassed expression.

"What? Your master is not there? There is still something unspeakable, please make it clear! Ming Zhongxin arched his hand.

"Alas, don't hide it, my master is injured and can't get up to meet the guests! Please find another time! The old housekeeper sighed.

Wounded? Mingzhong's confidence moved, and he glanced at Mingyi, "Uncle, in this way, I have to visit your master, after all, the good things in the future will have to depend on him." ”

"That's it, let's tell the truth!" The old housekeeper saw that Ming Zhongxin was unrelenting, so he had to stomp his feet and look open-minded.

Ming Zhongxin and Ming Yi glanced at each other, there is really a hidden secret!

"To tell you the truth, my master was injured by the government!"

Ming Zhongxin frowned slightly, but did not answer.

The old housekeeper peeked at it, and when he saw that Mingzhong's face did not change, he was disappointed for a while, and he slandered him, it was really an official to protect each other! It seems that this Chincha-sama can't count on it!

"Which officer was injured by that?" Mingyi asked.

"Who else can it be, it is the steward of King Mu's Mansion!" The old butler didn't have a good airway.

Mu Wangfu steward? The two of them were speechless for a while, when will this Mu Wangfu be able to replace the official mansion?

No, is it the one? Mingzhong moved in confidence.

"Is that the bearded man?"

"Yes, it's that black-faced and black-hearted Lai Han!" The old butler nodded in response.

Black-faced and black-hearted Laihan! Ming Zhongxin laughed at it, it's really appropriate!

"Then why did he come to the door to find trouble?"

"Alas, it's not for the conscription, my master doesn't want the brothers to go to the government to suffer in vain, and they may be infected with the epidemic, so they have been pressed and no one has been released! I never thought that today's government actually sent the black-faced and black-hearted Lai Han to give an ultimatum, choosing the same between handing over grain and handing over people, otherwise we will not be able to eat and go around! As a last resort, our master wanted to reason with him, but he never thought that that guy would go directly to the door and smash our house. I also took some of our things away. These officials, this heart is really black! As he spoke, the old housekeeper looked at Ming Zhongxin from time to time, obviously, he meant something.

However, Ming Zhongxin still did not change his face and listened to his story quietly.

"And then, you handed over the grain?"

"Well, what can that be? We can't let them destroy our house! A hint of hatred flashed in the old butler's eyes.

"What about people?"

"My master would rather hand over the grain than go and suffer from the brothers, not to mention, if he goes, I don't know if he can get out of it!"

I see! Ming Zhongxin understood, no wonder the Wang scribe wanted to do this, presumably, he already wanted to abandon the city, so in the end, he also destroyed the reputation of the government by the way, and the most important thing was to raise military supplies for the thieves, and he counted them in one fell swoop. Awesome!

"Okay, since your master is sick in bed, let's not bother!" Since Ming Zhongxin has understood the situation, he will not bother anymore and give up.

The old housekeeper glanced at Ming Zhongxin stupidly, his eyes were full of resentment, and he knew that these people in the government were protecting each other.

At this moment, suddenly, there was a scream in the house, and then there was a lot of noise.

The old butler's face changed suddenly, and he waited to close the door to check.

Ming Zhongxin's eyes moved, he raised his hand to block the door, and said with a smile, "Uncle, there is something in the house, we may be able to help!" ”

"No, you can't help!" The old butler's face changed, his eyes flickered, and he waited to close the door.

"Okay, let's go in and have a look, and if we can't help, retreat immediately!" Ming Zhongxin's face sank, and as soon as he raised his hand, he pushed the door open and stepped into the courtyard.

You! The old housekeeper was anxious, however, he was powerless to resist, and could only watch the students and Mingyi step into the door.

Hey, Ming Zhongxin entered the door to take a look, but only to see that the house was in a mess, obviously too late to clean up, but the people in the house seemed to turn a blind eye, and rushed away in one direction one by one.

Ming Zhongxin frowned and walked in that direction.

"Your Excellency!" The old butler sighed helplessly and hurriedly stepped forward, "I'll lead the way for you!" ”

It's good to have an acquaintance to lead the way, which is not bad.

Ming Zhongxin nodded, without speaking, his divine consciousness instantly expanded, probing in that direction.

Yo, but I saw that the direction in which the people in the house gathered was a small courtyard, but when these people came to the outside of the small courtyard, they didn't dare to take half a step, but just stretched their necks and looked inward.

Several women looked at the courtyard with pale faces, their lips trembling, their fingers clenching the silk handkerchiefs, their eyes full of sadness, and a hint of death flashing in their eyes.

In the small courtyard, it was even more empty, and the door was closed.

Divine sense penetrated into the room, oh, there were a few strong men lying on the bunk in the room, oh, it can't be said to be a strong man, it can only be said to be a few skinny former strong men, only to see that their eyes are blank, coughing repeatedly, the most terrible thing is that on the ground in the room, there is a lying one, with deep eye sockets, pus in the mouth, only the breath out, no breath in, obviously, is on the verge of death.

And the strong men lying on the bunk are looking at the men on the ground with sad faces, and there is a kind of miserable color of rabbits and dead foxes.

And on the ground in the middle, there was an old man who looked like a doctor, guarding his mouth and nose, helpless in the face of the man on the ground, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

"Your Excellency!" The old butler's voice sounded, and in an instant, Ming Zhongxin was called back.

Ming Zhongxin retracted his senses, looked at the old housekeeper, and said sharply, "Old man, there is an epidemic in the house, why don't you report it to the government?" ”

Yes! A hint of panic flashed in the old butler's eyes, and he denied it again and again, "No! Nope! How can there be such a thing! ”

"Alright, why don't we go to the small courtyard over there?" Ming Zhongxin stared at him closely, his eyes flashing fiercely.

The old housekeeper looked at Ming Zhongxin with flickering eyes, and smiled helplessly, "My lord, let's meet our master and talk about it!" This way, please! ”

Ming Zhongxin looked at him, his eyes froze, he nodded slowly, and walked in the direction pointed by the old housekeeper.

After a while, they came to a main house, and the old butler stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Master, the Master is here!" ”

There was silence in the room, and then there was an exclamation, and there was a rush in the room.

Then, with a creak, the door opened, and a woman came out, looking at the old butler with probing eyes, and the old butler frowned and shook his head.

"My lord is invited!" The woman turned her head to look at Ming Zhongxin, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, obviously, she was surprised by Ming Zhongxin's age. But then he restrained the surprise in his eyes and saluted.

Ming Zhongxin nodded lightly and stepped into the room.

Hey, a smell of medicine filled his nasal cavity, Ming Zhongxin frowned slightly, and looked at the main position on the front.

An old man with a pale face and a brocade robe sat on the throne and looked at him intently.

"This grandfather, Ming is polite." Ming Zhongxin took a step forward and arched his hand.

"Master Ming, you're polite, forgive Li for being injured and unable to get up to salute, please take a seat!" The old man smiled bitterly and stretched out his hand to please.

Ming Zhongxin nodded, sat down at the table next to him, and looked at the grandfather.

"I don't know what Master Ming came for?"

"Ming Mou went straight to say, this time, I originally wanted to visit the grandfather and understand some of the situation, but I never thought that I found that there was an epidemic in the house, so I came to ask, why didn't the grandfather report to the government, you know, this matter is related to the safety of the people of Yiliang, if you are not careful, I am afraid that it will cause irreparable disasters!" Ming Zhongxin looked at the old man with blazing eyes, seeking an explanation.

The old man smiled bitterly before he was speechless, "I don't know where Master Ming learned that there are infected people in our house, but Li dares to assert that you don't know the specific situation!" ”

Ming Zhongxin nodded, didn't interject, just looked at him.

"Actually, the people in the house are not infected with the epidemic, they are just poisoned!" The old man said firmly.

Yes! Ming Zhongxin's eyes shrank, this person actually knows? Thinking about the old man I saw with my divine sense just now, I was suddenly stunned, it seems that I really can't underestimate the doctor in the world!

"Oh, since you know it's poisoning, why are you still keeping the door closed and not looking for someone to help?"

Ming Zhongxin's indifferent expression stunned the old man, this person believed his words so easily? I believe that our house is poisoned, not infected?

"Grandpa, why don't you find a doctor to help?" Ming Zhongxin asked.

"Alas!" The old man sighed before he could say anything, "Actually, Li is now looking for the cause, the cause is unknown, Li does not dare to go out to cause trouble, after all, this kind of toxin is similar to the epidemic, if you rashly explain it to the government, I am afraid that these family members will be burned alive and treated with the epidemic, and even, the Li Mansion will be banned by the government, and even worse, the whole family will be wiped out by the government in the name of the epidemic, but this is the reason why Li is unwilling to spread it." What's more, these days, what the government has done has made Li deeply worried, and their purpose is not to relieve disasters and prevent epidemics at all, but to let our people in Yiliang go to a dead end! This made Li even more afraid, and he didn't dare to contact the government lightly! ”

"I'm afraid that it is the actions of the king's scribe that make you and others feel uneasy, and you dare not believe it!" Ming Zhongxin chuckled.

Yes! The old man's eyes widened, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes as he looked at Ming Zhongxin.

"Okay, let me tell you, that Wang scribe is a thief Neiying, and now he has been driven away by Lord Qincha, and Yiliang City has returned to the hands of the imperial court!"

This news was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and the old man's body trembled again and again, and he looked at Ming Zhongxin with an incredible expression.

"What? Don't believe Ming's words! Ming Zhongxin knocked lightly on the table and said slowly, "Actually, now the people in the city have basically been poisoned, including you." ”

These words shocked everyone here even more.
