As soon as the team crossed the bridge, they saw Wang Dahei, and they all pulled the reins to stop, and a person who looked like a leader, facing Wang Dahei, shouted and asked: "Where is Huliucun Village?" ”

Wang Dahei has lived in a small village for a long time, and his knowledge is naturally small, and as soon as he saw the official errand, he was so frightened that he shrank back, and now he was still being questioned by the official, his legs trembled, and under excessive tension, his tongue was stiff and he couldn't speak.

"What do you ask?" The leading official frowned, urging unhappily.

"In ...... In ......," Wang Dahei tried his best to straighten out his tongue and pointed in the direction of the field, "working in the field." ”

The leading official shouted: "Quickly send him to the village office!" ”

"Yes...... Be! Wang Dahei stammered back, and galloped away like a dog.

A group of officials sent Wang Dahei away, rode towards the village, and two young officials couldn't help but hide their mouths and snicker when they saw the scene of Li Hao and the donkey tug-of-war.

With a "snap", the rope that tied the donkey was broken, the donkey's egg was free, and he spread his hooves and screamed happily, rushing to Hu Laohan's house, Li Hao threw the rope on the ground angrily, and chased after him with all his strength.

However, the speed of the donkey egg was too fast, and he rushed into the village in a blink of an eye, when Li Hao ran to Hu Laohan's house, he heard a rapid donkey cry from the donkey Pengli, and took a closer look, the donkey egg had already begun to do things, Li Hao slapped his head, and sighed helplessly.

The donkey's bark was too loud, and it reached the house, and a person came out of the house, a little boy about twelve years old, wearing an old black cloth coat, holding a broken book in his hand, this is Hu Laohan's eldest son, Hu Dashan, twelve years old this year, Hu Dashan saw Li Hao standing outside the donkey shed, walked over and took a look, and found that there was an extra donkey in the donkey shed, and immediately knew Li Hao's intention, "Li Daochang, thank you for coming to our family to breed cuihua." As he spoke, he bowed to Li Hao in a similar manner, but his movements were rusty and immature, and he had obviously just learned it for a short time.

"Don't!" Li Hao hurriedly jumped to the side, "Let's be rigorous, it's not me who came to breed your family's cuihua, I brought a donkey to breed your family's cuihua." ”

Hu Dashan blinked his eyes and thought for a while: "Is there a difference?" ”

"Of course there is a difference!" Li Hao glared and shouted excitedly, "It's my stupid donkey's business, don't put shit on my head!" As a reader, you have to be reasonable, right? ”

"......Forehead" Hu Dashan looked confused, Li Hao was so jumpy, he couldn't keep up with his rhythm at all, obviously he wanted to thank him, but he became a pot, and he felt that the chat could not continue, so he could only change the topic and ask, "Daochang Li, have you seen my father?" ”

Li Hao shook his head: "I didn't see it, but I met Wang Dahei at Jinshui Bridge, and he said that your father went to the ground, oh, by the way, your father seems to be the village leader." ”

"yes." Hu Dashan nodded.

"Then he should go to the village office now, a team of officials on horseback came just now, and as soon as he entered the village, he shouted to see the village official, isn't it your father."

"Official!" Hu Dashan was shocked when he heard this, "My father made a mistake?" ”

"Who knows." Li Hao raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly, "Maybe your father was found peeking at the little widow in the next village taking a bath......"

"Don't talk nonsense! My dad wouldn't do such a nasty thing. Hu Dashan was so angry that his cheeks bulged, and his two big eyes glared at Li Hao, "As a monk, how can you be so immoral!" ”

Li Hao saw that he was angry, and said with a hippie smile: "I'm not a monk, I'm just a layman in a Taoist robe, just kidding, it's so serious, it's too humorless." ”

Li Hao's harmless smile instantly made Hu Dashan's anger disappear most, and Li Hao did not forget to remind: "Don't you go to the village office to see your father?" ”

"Oh, yes." Hu Dashan pulled Li Hao and ran to the village office, Li Hao shouted depressedly all the way, "Hey, what are you pulling me to do, it's not my father who is in trouble." ”

The village office is actually a dilapidated house on the wasteland in the north of the village, which is mainly used for meeting and deliberating in the village, and is usually idle.

There is a notice board in front of the door of the village office, and there is a notice posted on the notice board at this moment, and the official seal is also printed, and many villagers are talking about it in front of the notice board, in fact, most of them do not know how to read, and a few literate people in the village tell them the content of the notice.

Li Hao saw so many people from afar, and guessed in his heart that something was wrong, otherwise it would be impossible for an official notice to be sent to such a small village, so he rushed up in three or two steps, pushed aside the crowd and came to the billboard, there were not many words on the notice, and it took him a while to finish reading, and after reading it, he frowned and said to himself: "There is a plague in Henan Road!" ”

This notice was issued by the Linbei County Ya, and the notice said that there were already four prefectures and counties in Henan Province that were plagued, and Xuzhou, where they were located, was one of the plague prefectures and counties, and the most important thing was that there were plague patients in Linbei County.

This plague came very suddenly, why is it sudden, because it appeared at the same time in four states and counties, which has never happened before, if it is not controlled, it will be the most harmful plague since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

After the local officials found out about the plague, they immediately rushed to the imperial court for eight hundred miles, and Li Shimin, who had been frightened by the natural disaster, felt that his head hurt again, and personally issued an edict to send all the staff of the Tai Hospital, and spent a lot of money to gather famous doctors from all sides of the hospital to go to Henan Province to fight the plague.

Li Shimin attaches great importance to this plague, there is no way, Li Shimin killed his brother and killed his brother to take the throne, and he has been poked in the backbone, but unfortunately he has been poked in the backbone for many years after he took the throne, and the people complained, saying that God punished Li Shimin and caused the people to suffer.

Li Shimin wanted to cry without tears, the baby was bitter, but the baby didn't say, he could only be diligent and love the people, be a good emperor, Zhenguan defeated the Eastern Turks in four years, and finally let him counterattack, the whole country celebrated, and the people of the Tang Dynasty finally gave him a big thumbs up.

Li Shimin is not afraid of anything now, he is afraid of natural disasters.

The Linbei County government issued this notice with only two intentions: first, to tell all villages and towns that all villages and towns in Linbei County were temporarily blocked, restricting all animals from going out, and residents in the villages should not move around at will to prevent the spread of the plague.

Second, he told all the villages and towns that soon a doctor sent by the imperial court would come to each village to take up the town, and hoped that the villages of each village would actively cooperate with the work, and if anyone was found to be suffering from the epidemic, they would immediately notify the doctor and treat him, and if the treatment was useless, the body of the deceased would be burned to prevent infection.

Li Hao was stunned for a long time after reading the notice, and suddenly thought of a major problem, the village was blocked, how could Lao Tzu go back?

As soon as Li Hao thought of this, he hurriedly ran out of the village, not even caring about the donkey's eggs, but when he ran to the head of the village, he sadly found two samurai in military uniforms holding long soldiers guarding the Jinshui Bridge.

"Damn, it's moving so fast!" Li Hao shouted in despair, his eyes rolled, he thought of the idea of swimming across the river, quietly turned around, and ran north to the Jinshui River, the Jinshui River is not small, more than four zhang wide, the river flows very slowly, although his swimming skills are not high, but he thinks that there should be no problem in swimming past, he just wanted to go down the river, suddenly saw movement on the other side of the river, took a closer look, and instantly felt that the whole person was not good, I saw a warrior on the opposite side of the river riding a horse is slowly moving along the river, his eyes are sweeping around the river, if it is not for the willow trees by the river, I'm afraid that Li Hao would have been discovered a long time ago.

These warriors who blockaded the village looked like people in the army, and in order to control the plague, Li Shimin even dispatched the army, which shows how much he attached importance to this plague.

Now Li Hao was forced hard, drooped his head and returned to the village, and unconsciously returned to Hu Laohan's house.

Li Hao was angry when he saw this goods, but he couldn't control his lower body because of this goods, so he was now trapped in Huliu Village, and it was afternoon, where would he sleep at night.

"You perverted ass!" Li Hao picked up a wicker from the ground, and wanted to go up and slap him twice, when he suddenly heard someone calling from behind: "Little Li Daochang, when did you come?" ”

Li Hao turned his head when he heard this, and saw Hu Laohan and his eldest son Hu Dashan coming back through the fence yard, and the two of them walked into the yard in threes and twos, Li Hao threw away the wicker embarrassedly, and said: "I brought a donkey to find Cuihua to match that, haha, hehe...... "Alas, I feel ashamed to say this kind of thing."

Hu Laohan also smiled, spread his hands and said, "Let's go into the house and drink saliva." Li Hao nodded with a dry smile and followed him into the house.

After Hu Laohan entered the house, he pushed open the back door and shouted: "Child, little Li Daochang is here, boil some water for the guests." ”

"Okay!" A woman's voice came from the back of the house, it was Hu Laohan's wife Liu.

Hu Laohan searched in the three rooms, but there was no trace of his youngest son, so he turned his head and asked Hu Dashan: "Dashan, what is your brother?" ”

"Let's go out and have fun." Hu Dashan replied, "You just went out for a while, and he went out." ”

"This bastard." Hu Laohan snorted coldly and sighed, "I know how to play all day long, and Lao Tzu finally handed over the bundle for him to go to the neighboring village to study, but he didn't have to work." ”

Li Hao persuaded on the side: "Children, they are all greedy for fun, and I was like this when I was a child." ”

"How can that be the same." Hu Laohan's eyes squeezed, and his mustache trembled and said, "The emperor has just opened the scientific examination to select officials, and Lao Tzu still expects them to study and become a master, you are a Taoist priest, and you don't expect to be an official." ”

Li Hao: ......

Li Hao really wanted to explain to him again, he was not a Taoist priest, but he knew that it was in vain, because he didn't know that he had told these people hundreds of times, they were goldfish, and he forgot about it after blinking his eyes a few times, Li Hao was so tired, he turned his head around in embarrassment, and said indifferently: "Ah, Uncle Hu, your family is so big." ”

"What's the big deal?" Hu Laohan shook his head and sighed lightly, "There are only three rooms in total, this hall is one, I and the child are one room, and these two bastards are one, just enough to live, alas, if these two bastards are not promising, our family has no vacant room for them to marry a daughter-in-law, and we have to build another house, which is sad." ”

Li Hao blinked and said flatteringly: "Uncle Hu, I heard that the village is blocked. ”

Hu Laohan nodded: "Well, it's blocked, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court are guarding it, and not a single chicken feather can fly out." ”

Li Hao pretended to be surprised and asked, "Then I can't go back?" ”

"Well, I can't go back." Hu Laohan nodded again.

"Hey...... Hehe......" Li Hao smiled even more, "Daddy Hu......"

"Don't, don't, don't call me Daddy." Hu Laohan found that he suddenly changed his name, and felt that it was no good thing, so he shook his hands continuously, "I am only thirty-five, they call me Lao Han has already called me old, you call me Daddy again, I feel that I don't have a few years to live." ”

"Yes, yes......" Li Hao nodded with a smile, "Uncle Hu, you said that you are the village leader of Huliu Village, such a big official, can you help me solve my accommodation problem?" After he finished speaking, he looked at Hu Laohan with affection, and the speed of his blink of an eye was comparable to that of a sewing machine.

"Uh...... This ......" Hu Laohan pondered for a while, and said with an embarrassed face, "Now that there is a plague in our Henan Province, I'm afraid that no one will dare to take you in, and there will be no vacancy in our house." ”

Li Hao thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Then can I live in the village office?" ”

Hu Laohan looked at him in surprise: "There is nothing in that place, how can people live?" ”

"At least there are walls and roofs to keep out the wind and rain." Li Hao looked at him pleadingly.

Hu Laohan sighed helplessly, lowered his head and thought about it, nodded and said: "Okay, you and the little doctor have kindness to our villagers, and we can't be kind and not repay, you just live there, and I will let the child send you some hay and bedding over when I go back, but don't give it a cold, I heard that people who are sick are more likely to contract the plague." ”

Li Hao's eyebrows twitched, can you say something auspicious, can you chat, can you chat!

Although he was unhappy, he still had to thank Hu Laohan, after all, he had already done a very particular job.

That night, Li Hao lived in the village office, the place is very spacious, but a little leaky, fortunately it has entered the late spring, the weather is not too cold, spread a thick layer of hay, and then put on the mattress, soft, very comfortable, I just don't know if there will be grass lice, although Li Hao has no cleanliness, but for lice This kind of thing is still afraid, but now is not the time to pay attention to it, it is very good to have such a place to sleep.
