After dealing with Xu Tianlin and several other thieves, Song Yao and his men continued their journey towards Pingyang County.

After three days, they finally arrived in Pingyang County.

After arriving in Pingyang County, the old rules were followed. Most people followed the horse-drawn carriages and mule-drawn carts to the city gate, while Song Yao and the remaining ten or so people entered Pingyang County.

Nowadays, natural disasters and man-made disasters are constantly happening. For the sake of everyone's life safety, we listened to Old Man Xu's advice and bought fifteen kinds of detoxifying herbs from Baojitang in Pingyang County.

After buying these medicinal herbs, Song Yao and the others went to replenish supplies.

Suddenly, Song He's voice came to Song Yao's ears, "Sister, Song Jiaqi and the others are here."

Song Yao glanced at Song He, but didn't look back. She just said calmly, "Don't worry about them."

"Okay." Song He nodded.

They came to the market and bought a lot of vegetables and meat. Because there was still a lot of food in the space, they didn't buy any of it, but only bought various vegetables.

After buying the necessary supplies, Song Yao called everyone to go to the arms dealer and bought an additional sixty arrows.

After paying the silver, Song Yao and the others went directly to Fuyuan Inn.

There were already quite a few people staying in the inn, and only ten rooms were left. Song Yao took all of them, gave them some silver, and asked Song Zizhou to call other people to the inn.

After the rest of the people went upstairs, Song Yao asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I want to ask you something."

The shopkeeper said with a smile, "Sir, what do you want to know?"

Song Yao asked, "Are there no other cities on the way to Youyang?"

Song Yao had asked some passers-by before, and they said that to go from Pingyang County to Youyang, one would pass through Chunlin Town, Liuhe County, Qingfeng County, and Fengyang Town. In other words, one would have to pass through four places before reaching Youyang.

After listening to Song Yao's words, the shopkeeper nodded and said, "That's right. There are only a few counties and towns on the way to Youyang. There is only one small town to the west of Liuhe County, but there is a plague there right now. I advise you not to go to Liuhe County and that small town."

Hearing this, Song Yao frowned slightly, "Could it be that the plague in that small town has spread to Liuhe County?"

"Liuhe County is the closest to that city, but I think those infected with the plague have already gone to Liuhe County. Liuhe County is home to several villages, so it's difficult to choose. If you're going to Youyang, I suggest you take a detour."

After coming here from the capital, Song Yao and his companions only encountered refugees and did not encounter any plague.

If they had gone to Liuhe County, they would probably have been infected.

Fortunately, she asked a question, otherwise it would be a big trouble if she really encountered it.

"Boss, I understand. Thank you."

"You're welcome." The shopkeeper put the abacus aside and asked, "Sir, I see you've requested ten rooms. Can you occupy all of them?"

Song Yao smiled and said, "There are quite a lot of people traveling with us, so we can accommodate them all."

"All right then," said the shopkeeper, "Sir, please go back to your room. Dinner will be served shortly."

"Okay." Song Yao nodded and turned to go upstairs.

Because Song Yuanbo and the others had not arrived yet, Song Yao returned to her room.

Huaying had already made the bed for her. Seeing Song Yao coming, she went to her and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

Song Yao glanced at Huaying and said as she sat at the table, "Liuhe County has probably been occupied by people infected with the plague, so we have to take a detour. And if we go to Youyang this time, there's only a small town west of Liuhe County, but the people there are infected with the plague, so we definitely can't go there. So we have to go out and buy supplies later."

Huaying frowned and asked in confusion, "But Miss, didn't you just buy a lot of vegetables? And there's still so much food in the space. Even if we don't buy more, it's enough for us to eat."

"You don't understand. Natural disasters and man-made disasters are constantly happening. No one knows what will happen to us next, so it never hurts to be more prepared."

"Okay then, I'll go out with you to buy it later."

"Ah."

Song Yao took the teapot in front of her and poured a cup of tea.

Half an incense stick later, Song Zizhou and his men called Song Yuanbo and others.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Song Yao asked Huaying to call them to her room, and then told them that there was a plague in Liuhe County and a small town in the west.

After they heard this, their faces all turned ugly.

Song Zizhou said yesterday that if they wanted to go to Youyang, they would have to pass through Liuhe County, but now there was a plague in Liuhe County, so they definitely couldn't go together.

Song Yuanbai looked at Song Zizhou and said hurriedly, "Zizhou, quickly look at the map and see if there is any other way to bypass Liuhe County."

"Okay." Song Zizhou agreed and immediately took out the map he carried with him and opened it to look at it.

Just as he was about to speak, the shopkeeper came in.

He walked up to Song Yao and said, "Sir, I forgot to tell you that there used to be a small road leading to Liuhe County. This road could bypass Liuhe County, but a few days ago, this road was blocked by falling rocks and is impassable."

Before Song Yao could say anything, E Yu exclaimed in shock, "If that's the case, how are we going to get through Liuhe County?"

Song Yao said, "Shopkeeper, are you sure?"

"Sir, why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, you can send someone over to take a look." The shopkeeper said, "I have something else to do, so I'll be leaving first."

After the shopkeeper left, Song Zizhou looked at Song Yao and said, "We have no connection with him, yet he told us this. If he has ulterior motives, we will be in trouble. How about this, Yao, I will take Song Qing and Mingxuan to check it out."

"Okay." Song Yao nodded. "Brother, go ahead. Be careful on the road."

"Okay!" Song Zizhou turned around and looked at Song Qing and Song Mingxuan, "You two, come with me to check out the situation."

"Okay!" Song Mingxuan agreed, and immediately left the inn with Song Qing and Song Zizhou.

Song Yuanbai sighed and said worriedly, "If that road is really blocked, then we can only go through Liuhe County. But now Liuhe County is plagued by plague. What if we go through there and get infected?"

Song Shuirong said: "The best way is to find a new way."

Chen He said, "How do we find it? There's only one way to get there, but it's blocked. If there's really no other way, we can only go through Liuhe County."

Yang Fuwan said, "Don't we have Doctor Xu with us? He's a doctor, he must have a way to deal with the plague."

Old Man Xu was stunned for a moment. He looked at Yang Fuwan and said, "I don't know how the plague came about, but I can't develop an antidote. Besides, there are so many of us, there's always going to be two people who can get infected. If the plague comes quickly, I won't be able to do anything."
