Ancient natural disasters, walking sideways in the maximum level space!

not good!

Jiang Yue was so frightened by this scene that she ran up the hillside.

Her action startled the crowd on the shore, and everyone turned around and ran south.

Jiang Yue was at the end, holding Xiao Zhu's hand and sprinting a hundred meters with all her might.

The master and servant ran after the crowd desperately, overtaking one old, weak, woman and child after another.

Everyone was carrying bags on their backs and did not have the strong bodies of farmers, so it was inevitable that they would feel breathless and have leg pain after running a few steps.

The officers did not forget their duties at this time. When they saw people dragging their feet and running slowly, they whipped them.

With a roar, the person who was lagging behind rushed forward like a dog.

The officer was so angry that he almost died. He was not in a hurry at all when his life was in danger.

Those people were actually very wronged. At this moment, they wished they could grow wings and fly away, but they really couldn't run.

The team ran two miles in one breath, and when they could no longer see the situation on the river behind them, they bent down and gasped for breath.

Even the police officers found it a bit too much to bear and had to lean against the trees and drink water with their heads tilted back.

It took a while for everyone to react. "What happened in the river just now? Why are there so many dead fish? It's midday and the river is still smoky. Why are those fish turning red?"

This is everyone's question, but no one has an answer.

Jiang Jinheng loves reading the most. He has read many great works, but has never seen a description of such a situation.

The officers have been escorting prisoners for many years and have walked this route countless times, but they have never encountered a situation like this.

At this moment, Jiang Yue and Xiao Zhu were bending over and gasping for breath. Their chests were burning and hurt as if they were being torn apart.

After finally calming down and just about to speak, he suddenly burst into earth-shaking coughing.

Not only her, but everyone smelled a bad and pungent odor.

Everyone covered their mouths and noses and looked around for the source of the smell.

Jiang Yue was shocked. They had already reached the plain today and there were no mountains nearby. It shouldn't be possible for a volcanic eruption to affect here, right?

But the pungent smell is as bad as sulfur.

Considering the dead fish in the river just now, Jiang Yue thought of a terrible possibility.

Could it be that a volcano erupted somewhere and affected this place?

The underground temperature is too high, causing the river water temperature to rise sharply.

Covering your mouth and nose with your hands will not stop the smoke

Fortunately, after half an hour, the smell of sulfur became lighter and lighter.

Everyone lowered their hands from covering their mouths and noses, and only a faint smell remained.

Some of the weak ones had already collapsed, and their families were fanning them and giving them water.

I don’t know what the situation is on the other side of the river, so it’s impossible to go back.

I can only continue to go south. Twenty miles away is Tan County. I can only go there to see if there is any news received in the city.

After resting for half an hour, the officers asked everyone to move forward faster.

Most of the people who fainted woke up, but they were still a little dizzy and wanted to vomit. There were still a dozen people who had not woken up yet and had to be carried around.

The convicts all knew the seriousness of the matter, and no one made trouble. They just covered their heads and continued on their way.

The exile team continued to walk south, with the river to the west.

When they fled, they ran two miles to the east in a panic and now need to turn back.

However, the officials were also afraid that the incident of dead fish in the river would happen again, so they did not turn back and walked south in a parallel route to the river.

We also encountered some small lakes on the way, but they were all steaming.

The exile team looked at the misty lake around them and became more eager to continue their journey.

When we passed by a village in the afternoon, the people were standing at the entrance of the village. When they saw a team passing by on the official road, a farmer immediately greeted them from afar and asked them to stop.

The officer raised his hand to signal the team to stop, and the old man, supported by his fellow villagers, stepped forward and saluted.

"Sir, at noon, the livestock in the village became restless. The temperature rose, and the river was swirling with dead fish. Could you tell me what's going on?"

The chief official was Liu Yu, whose ancestor was also a sixth-rank official. However, it seemed that the Liu family had no talent for education.

Generation after generation has been bad at liberal arts, and the highest level they can achieve is just a scholar.

When it came to Liu Yu's generation, he was more fond of martial arts.

He had some skills and asked someone to get him a job as a prisoner escort. He has been the leader of this team for many years.

Liu Yu looked at the village and shook his head in response. "We don't know about that either. We passed by the river at noon and it was full of dead fish. The water was also extremely hot and the fish were all steamed."

We even smelled a pungent smell at noon, and now we have to rush to Tan County to get the news."

The old man nodded and bowed as he went back.

Liu Yu's heart was pounding, and he called on other officials to hurry on their way.

The convicts and the officers were so exhausted that they were out of breath and thought they would have to spend the night in the wild.

Fortunately, we finally arrived in Tan County before six o'clock in the afternoon.

However, the situation at the gate of Tan County was not very good either. Everyone looked nervous, and many people were coming in and out.

The officer quickly handed over the documents and allowed the team to enter the city.

After entering the city, everyone felt a little relieved. Humans are social animals, and it is rare for them to encounter such terrible and terrifying things outside the city.

Humans tend to crowd into crowded places, as if having more people means they feel safer.

The Great Xia Dynasty supported the opening of night markets in various cities, so that a large amount of currency could be circulated.

But the sun hasn't set yet, and the shops on both sides of the street have already closed.

The owner of the shop, who didn't have time to close the shop, was also installing wooden boards on the door one by one.

When they saw the group of fugitives entering the city, they no longer had the heart to watch or point fingers. They were all busy with their hands, and in a flash, they disappeared.

Apart from their huge group of several hundred people, there were only a few people running hurriedly with their heads down on the street.

In this situation, the convicts and the police were a little frightened.

This county town looks like the enemy has reached the city gates, and everyone is busy running for their lives.

Everyone knows that under the governance of the current emperor, there has been no war in the Great Xia Dynasty in recent years.

The strangeness of these people is due to the inexplicable phenomena outside the city.

Tan County is not big, and the county government cannot accommodate so many people.

Therefore, all the officials were asked to stay in an inn in the city and pay money as per the old rules.

There were no large bunk beds in the inn, so Jiang Jinyun used the money he took from the official Heizi to ask for a single room.

She lives in a room alone today.

Jiang Yue still asked for a room and Xiao Zhu took out some delicious food and fruits.

The two discussed what they had seen today while eating.

"Miss, do you know what's going on in that river? It's horrible! The fish are all cooked!"

At first, Jiang Yue just suspected that the rising temperature of the river water was related to the volcanic eruption, but the sulfur she smelled later confirmed the reason.

But she couldn't figure it out. She had never written these things in her novel. Who wrote them?

Holding an iron spoon in his hand, he unconsciously scooped up half a watermelon on the table.

“I guess there must have been a volcanic eruption not far away, which affected the underground.

This causes the river water temperature to suddenly rise, causing the fish in the river to lack oxygen and die.”

Xiao Zhu blinked in confusion, "What is hypoxia?"

Jiang Yue was about to explain when she realized that this question was too profound for people of this era.

It’s hard to explain at the moment.

And now she wants to quickly enter the space to see if there are any prompts on the computer.

He quickly coaxed Xiaozhu to take a bath, and after Xiaozhu left, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
