Take this little lucky star home and the whole dynasty will be filled with prosperity!

Luo Luo moved closer to the old doctor step by step, scaring the old doctor so much that he stepped back step by step.

"Pap..."

The packages behind him fell to the ground and scattered.

A black, square little box made of sandalwood and engraved with pine needles and cypress leaves patterns appeared in front of everyone.

"My Lady, this... this is my lifeblood. If I go to the border town, I'm afraid it will be dangerous. I'm afraid that in the end, I'll die on the battlefield, and my wife and children won't be able to see my tattered body. They will live in endless sadness and longing for the rest of their lives."

"So, I will take the urn with me. If anything unexpected happens, please burn me and bring my ashes back. They will be relieved."

As the old doctor spoke, tears streamed down his face and he looked extremely sad.

Xiao Chenming was even more sad in his heart.

If there hadn't been an emergency at the border, the old doctor, who should have been enjoying his retirement with his children and grandchildren around him, would not have traveled so far to go to the rescue.

This unprovoked disaster on the border may be a premeditated plot by someone with ulterior motives.

Luo Luo picked up the old doctor's urn with a heavy heart, wrapped it in cloth, and stuffed it back into his arms, "Don't worry, you won't die, your blessing is coming!"

The little guy stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the old doctor with gentle eyes.

During this border epidemic, the imperial doctors and soldiers who went to rescue people will increase their own merits and fortune because of the cause and effect of saving lives.

Then Lolo will give them a few more years of life.

"Are we almost at the border town?"

The further we went, the more desolate the vegetation around us became, and the air became drier and thinner.

"Yes, if nothing goes wrong, we can enter the city early tomorrow morning." General Cui was riding on a horse. He was dusty and had a long beard. His face looked very shabby.

At this moment, he raised his eyes and looked into the distance with a serious expression.

A thick layer of black fog lingered above the border town.

"General, there is black smoke around the border town. Is there any accident in the city?"

"General, look, there is black smoke all over the sky, and this unpleasant smell..."

One of the subordinates waved his hand and there was scattered black smoke powder in his hand.

Everyone had some black ash on their bodies.

"This is the city, the bodies are being burned."

"More and more people are sick in the city. Haoxu has no choice but to burn the bodies of the dead to slowly block the source of pollution."

"But this corpse, burning day and night, still keeps burning..."

General Cui felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his heart, so heavy that it suffocated him.

Xiao Chenming also looked into the distance with a heavy face, and there was too much sadness in his eyes.

The imperial doctors following behind also got off the carriage and began to investigate the surroundings.

They first checked the surrounding geology, and seeing that there was no problem with the geology, they ran to the river to check the water source.

Then he checked the surrounding trees and grass.

After an examination, the doctors' faces became increasingly grim.

There is no problem with the water source or the vegetation, which means that the plague came from inside the city. The situation inside the city must be complicated.

"Your Majesty, judging from the outside, there is no problem here." Haoran reported to Xiao Chenming with a frown.

"Let's talk about it after we enter the city tomorrow!"

"Rest well outside the city tonight, make good preparations for protection, and enter the city early tomorrow morning."

Xiao Chenming ordered General Cui to distribute the prepared thick veils to each of the accompanying personnel.

"Your Majesty, it's getting dark and the dew is heavy. There happens to be a dilapidated temple near the city where we can stay for a night." General Cui sent someone to inquire and came back with the news that the city was closed. It was impossible for so many people, carriages, and various supplies to enter the city at once.

I decided to spend a night outside the city, make full preparations, and then go into the city.

This is a dilapidated temple that has been in disrepair for a long time. No one knows which deity is enshrined in this temple. The temple is leaky and full of holes, and spider webs cover the entire temple.

It looks like there are no signs of incense burning anymore.

General Cui ordered his men to clean the dilapidated temple thoroughly, laying out soft straw mats and exquisite bedding before allowing Xiao Chenming, Luo Luo, and the imperial doctors to move in.

The ruined temple was surrounded by layers of guards. They were divided into four groups and took turns on duty to ensure safety and do a tight job.

Night falls.

In the middle of the ruined temple, there was a pile of firewood, burning with a crackling sound.

"I heard that the people in the border town are all exiled criminals and their families. They are reformed again and settle down here." Haoran started chatting with General Cui.

General Cui nodded slightly. "Yes, the border environment is harsh and cold. Those exiled traitors have to experience the pain of a cold and bitter place here. They work every day and accept reform. There are also 100,000 troops stationed here. They dare not act rashly and can only live out their days here in peace and order."

When Lolo heard this, he was slightly stunned.

This means that Shen and Xu Ruoheng were all exiled here by the emperor.

It's really a narrow road.

Xiao Chenming seemed to sense Luo Luo's shock, walked forward, and took her hand, "Don't worry, they won't die, but they will live a life worse than death."

Lolo's eyes jumped forward, he took a deep look, and didn't say anything.

As the night deepened, the fog gradually approached.

The entire ruined temple was completely shrouded in fog.

They all cuddled together and fell asleep.

Outside the temple.

The guards who were on high alert inside and outside the city fell to the ground silently one by one.

Seeing that everyone had fallen into a deep sleep, Lolo slowly got up.

He tiptoed towards the center of the ruined temple.

At this time, black smoke was seen in the temple, surrounding the clay statue in the middle.

Sudden.

The broken clay statue slowly opened its eyes, with red light flashing in its eyes, and looked at Lolo with great majesty.

Luo Luo looked up and looked into his eyes, looking fearless.

A red light shone from the statue's eyes, and there was a chilling coldness in its eyes.

"Hey, I knew you would come here."

"Tell me, who are you, as long as you tell me your name, Luo Luo will leave your body intact!"

"No, your aura is not that of an ordinary little demon. Where does the aura around you come from?"

Luo Luo stared at the statue in front of him with burning eyes.

However, the statue's eyes were on the person behind Lolo.

At this time, Xiao Chenming was already standing quietly behind Luo Luo.
