My vest is not human [comprehensive martial arts]
Chapter 58: The Plague Ghost
Qiutang talked about many things and briefly mentioned many places.Compared with the pure white Gu Anning, her growing environment is so unbearable. Even though she has a strong character and superb force, she is still trampled underfoot and allowed to be driven.
How many people in this world can have the heart of a child like the second son of her family?
Gu Anning fell asleep for a long time while doing the task, and now she feels sleepy again.
Even he himself doesn't know whether the sleep after leaving the body is real sleep or not.He didn't have the strength to resist the drowsiness, and Qiutang's voice became smaller and smaller. When he opened his eyes again, it was already dawn.
The mood fluctuated too much yesterday, I didn't sleep well all night, my dreams were full of weird things, and I couldn't remember anything after waking up.
Gu Anning was very tired from sleeping, but she was not in the mood to continue.
It was rare to get up on time, and after washing, he went to the front hall to have dinner with Mr. Gu.
"Not feeling well?"
Gu Anning hesitated, "I slept too much yesterday afternoon, so I didn't fall asleep at night."
He hardly lied, his unnatural expression and erratic eyes revealed his inner thoughts.Looking at it, Qiutang's heart trembled.
Young Master Gu glanced at the two of them and chuckled, "What's wrong with you?"
"The second young master woke up in the middle of the night last night. He was hungry, so the maid served a bowl of red bean soup. The second young master couldn't hold it steady and broke the bowl." Qiutang tried to hold back a smile.
Eldest Young Master Gu trusts them, and if it's really a big deal, Gu Anning will definitely take the initiative to speak out, not what he is doing now.He believed Qiutang's words, picked up a soup dumpling for Gu Anning, put it on a plate and pushed it over, "If it breaks, it's not a big deal, just don't hurt yourself."
"It's a pity that the porridge made by Qiutang was also spilled." Gu Anning sighed, and quickly changed the subject, "My cousin is getting married, can I go?"
"Of course it is possible." Mr. Gu said, "It's just that although the capital city is not far from Yanbei, the identities of Tang Shu and Tang Aunt are not ordinary. There will definitely be many dignitaries in the capital going to congratulate that day, which is quite exhausting. , will be very tiring."
Gu Anning picked up the bun with chopsticks and took a bite, sucked up the overflowing soup, and said after swallowing, "But what does it have to do with me?"
Young Master Gu: "It's true."
Uncle Tang knew that Gu Anning was not in good health, so he would definitely send someone to take care of him.If he is tired of people coming and going, he can find a place to sleep well.
Gu Anning has never been to anyone else's wedding since she was so old, so she must be very curious.
· After dinner, Gu Anning returned to the mission under the pretense of going back to the room to catch up on sleep.
Still torrential rain.
Gu Anning held a lantern and stood at the stone monument in front of the entrance of Yong'an County.
Yong'an County is not too big, and it has a population of more than 2000.It's less than a day since the virus was planted, but people with the virus have more severe symptoms than ordinary people.The symptoms of the Bandit Boss should have already appeared. The medicinal materials on the mountain were scattered and difficult to find when it rained.
Gu Anning turned the lantern into a red umbrella and lifted it above his head, making a show of his body not getting wet from the rain, so it wouldn't look so strange at least.
He walked on the sparse streets with only two or three pedestrians, and walked towards the pharmacy with a clear goal.
The business of the pharmacy was deserted, and few people braved the heavy rain to come.
If someone really did this, it must be an emergency that cannot be delayed.
Gu Anning appeared in front of the pharmacy, and the young doctor who was watching the rain with a fan quickly got up and asked Gu Anning to come in, "Are you here to buy medicine or see a doctor?"
Gu Anning originally wanted to stand and watch beside the pharmacy, but never thought of entering the store.Being invited like this by a young child was a little overwhelming.
"Passing by." There was no expression on his delicate face, he looked extremely indifferent, and his voice was also extremely indifferent.
His face was beautiful, a beauty that blurred gender.But paired with the dazzling red dress, she looks more like a chic girl.
Few men can wear red so well.
After Gu Anning approached, the pharmacist at the pharmacy could see his face clearly. He had never seen such a beauty before, and he was quite flattered, "Then why don't you come in to shelter from the rain? I'm afraid the rain won't stop for a while. "
The man in red seemed a little moved.
The little doctor smiled awkwardly, "There is no business in the store. The shopkeeper has already gone home, leaving me here alone to look after the store. It's very boring. If you are not in a hurry to do other things... come in and say yes to me." Let's talk."
His purpose is to check the spread of the plague, and when it is confirmed that it has spread in Yong'an County, he can end the mission and leave.In the pharmacy, it is true that who has the disease can be known immediately, Gu Anning nodded, put away the umbrella and entered the store.
The little doctor showed a shy smile, he was not afraid of life, he boiled a pot of red dates and ginger tea in a casserole, and brought it out for Gu Anning to dispel the cold.
Gu Anning hesitated for a moment, took the cup, and thanked him.
The freshly brewed ginger tea is very hot, and the body temperature of the plague ghost is like the cold rain outside. When the two touch each other, Gu Anning almost feels like his hands are going to melt.
He is not afraid of being hot, and even somewhat enjoys the temperature.
"How many pharmacies and clinics are there in Yong'an County?" Gu Anning just held the cup and didn't drink.
"Let me think about it..." the little doctor scratched his fingers, "our family is the only serious pharmacy, the medical center is in the south of the city, and there is another medical center on the street of Yamen. If it doesn't rain, there will be small vendors on weekdays Bring herbs dug from the nearby mountains or other places to sell. Most of them are ordinary herbs that repel mosquitoes, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and dispel wind and heat. They are not expensive, but the price is very fair. Do you want to buy medicine?"
Gu Anning shook her head, "Just asking."
"That's it." The young doctor was very talkative. Hearing that Gu Anning was interested, he told him about several herbs sold in his pharmacy. Accompanied by the sound of rain outside, there was an illusion of tranquility.
Gu Anning couldn't help asking, "If a plague breaks out, is there a way to deal with it?"
"That depends on what kind of plague it is." Thinking of bad things, the young doctor frowned, "A few years ago, there was a plague in the neighboring county, and many people died. Medicinal materials for emergency use. If it is other uncommon plagues, it will be very troublesome to cure."
Gu Anning nodded.
Although he spreads the disease, he cannot guarantee the symptoms of the disease.
Just like this heavy rain, if any livestock dies, the corpses will be soaked in rainwater for many days, polluting the water source for eating and drinking, which is a kind of epidemic disease.If the people do not tidy their houses, starch their clothes, and clean their bodies regularly, another disease will spread.
The epidemic was placed on the bandit boss, and the disease spread out basically depends on the sources of the disease that can spread the disease in the life of the bandit.
Gu Anning sat in the pharmacy for a while, and finally someone came to the pharmacy in the rain.
This pharmacy is the closest to the entrance of the village. If anyone comes to Yong'an County to pick up medicine from outside, they will definitely go here first.
The little doctor greeted him with a smile on his face, "It's not easy on a heavy rainy day. Do you want to buy medicine or ask a doctor? Although he is young, ordinary symptoms can still be seen."
"Stop talking nonsense! My elder brother was caught in the rain and was frightened again, so he prescribed some medicines to dissipate heat and soothe the nerves! You can see the prescriptions yourself. If they don't work, beware that grandpa will blow up your shop!"
The smile on Xiao Langzhong's face couldn't hold back anymore, he curled his lips, and turned to get the paper to grab the medicine.He murmured, "What an evil! Doctors have a parental heart, is there such a thing for their parents? Unfilial son, hmph!"
Even though he was dissatisfied in his heart, the tall man with a beard was too fierce. He was afraid and didn't dare to amplify his voice, for fear of being beaten for nothing.
"Okay," he pushed a few medicine packs forward, "calming and calming medicine. I haven't seen any patients. If the symptoms that the customer dictates are wrong, I can't blame me for something happening!"
The tall man ignored him and wanted to leave with the medicine bag.
The little doctor hurriedly stopped, "Hey, hey, you haven't paid me yet!"
The man sneered, took down the shoulder knife on his waist, and slapped it on the table with a "bang", "Money or life, you choose!"
The little doctor shrank his head and hid behind the counter.
The man left contentedly, and the facial features of the child behind the cabinet were all wrinkled together, "The shopkeeper is going to deduct my monthly payment again..."
He sighed for a while before he remembered that there was another customer sitting in the store.Not wanting to lose face in front of the beautiful girl, the young man quickly crawled out, with a smile on his face again, pretending to be picking up something just now, straightened up, looked at the place where Gu Anning was sitting just now, the corners of his mouth immediately drooped.
——It was empty and there was no one there, only a cup of cool ginger tea on the table.
She didn't take a sip...
· Gu Anning disappeared after seeing the bandits approaching. Although the plague ghost didn't have much sympathy, at least he understood the truth that "good and evil are rewarded".
Cutting off the contact between the disease and the pharmacist, Gu Anning controlled the disease brought by the bandits, and quietly melted into the rainwater under his feet, and together with the water flow on the ground, spread all over the streets and alleys of Yong'an County.
Chu Liuxiang and Song Tian'er stayed on the mountain all night, followed the bandits down the mountain after dawn, and came to Yong'an County below.
They still share an umbrella and stand very close.The sound of breathing was covered in the pouring rain, Song Tian'er had a good impression of Chu Liuxiang, and wished that such days could last longer.
Chu Liuxiang said, "I don't know what happened to Rongrong and the others."
Song Tian'er said, "What else can I do? Sister Rongrong is thoughtful and has strong martial arts skills. She will definitely be able to handle things well! Instead of thinking about them, you should think about yourself. Why would someone chase you down?" ? This time it shouldn’t be from Bat Island, right?”
Chu Liuxiang smiled and shook her head, "I don't know."
He was actually very worried.
Chu Liuxiang is 30 years old. In the past 30 years, he has never seen a ghost once, and he only thinks that the theory of ghosts and ghosts only exists in story books.Fighting and killing are all too common in the Jianghu. If there are ghosts, how can there be a foothold in this world?There is only one life, and everyone should cherish it.
But in the past six months, he has seen ghosts twice.
Chu Liuxiang couldn't help thinking that maybe he had seen ghosts in the past 30 years, but he never discovered their true identities.
Yuan Suiyun had contacts with ghosts and gods before he was alive. If he really passed away...would he also become a wild ghost wandering in the world?
"When will the rain end?" Song Tian'er didn't know what Chu Liuxiang was thinking. She believed that no matter how difficult things were, Chu Liuxiang would always be able to solve them, so she wasn't worried at all.She complained about the continuous heavy rain, the muddy mountain road under her feet, and the lack of condiments used for cooking in the bandits' village, but her heart was very relaxed.
Chu Liuxiang said, "It's been a long time since it rained like this."
They all thought of the small trees broken by the wind that they saw along the way. The situation in the farmland should be more tragic than the trees.
"Brother Chu! Look!" Song Tian'er tugged on Chu Liuxiang's sleeve, pointed to the front and said, "Is that the girl in red that I met yesterday?"
At first she called Sister Hongyi, but after seeing Gu Anning's face, she suddenly didn't know who was older, so she changed her name to "Girl in Red".
"Really similar."
The bright red clothes add a touch of color to the hazy weather. This color is so conspicuous that it is difficult not to notice it.
"Let's go over and say hello to her!" Song Tian'er could tell that Chu Liuxiang had no ambiguous thoughts about him. In fact, Chu Liuxiang rarely had evil thoughts towards girls. Most of the time, it was women who liked Chu Liuxiang's temperament. With a face, he took the initiative to come over.
Although Gu An Ning was good-looking, she acted indifferently, not at all like plotting against Chu Liuxiang.Song Tian'er's intuition was very accurate, and she drew him into the safe zone.
Although she likes Chu Liuxiang and is unwilling to share this liking with more women, it doesn't mean she won't make friends again.
"Sweet..."
Song Tian'er turned her head in confusion, raised her face and looked up at him, "What's wrong, Brother Chu?"
Chu Liuxiang has never told the girls about the bizarre experience of encountering the evil ghost. It was going to be dark again yesterday. He was afraid of scaring Song Tian'er, so he didn't tell her the difference between the evil ghost.
The bandit boss kept talking, but he spoke incoherently, as if he had been frightened into a fool. Few people believed what he said. Everyone was more willing to believe Wang Shine's conjecture——Gu Anning was actually an unfathomable martial arts master. It is so strong that it can block the rain, which is not something bandits with three-legged cat kung fu like them can understand.So the abnormalities seen by the bandit boss are all because of his too high martial arts.
Where are ghosts in this world?
But they didn't stop seeing each other after they separated, the fate between the two of them and the plague ghost was deeper than imagined.
Song Tian'er wanted to take the initiative to run to the ghost in red, but Chu Liuxiang hesitated whether to tell her the truth.
"Did it ever occur to you that she might not need our help?"
"Brother Chu recognized her?"
Chu Liuxiang smiled wryly and touched her nose, "The bandits said her name is Yigui... Have you ever thought that these two words are not what the bandits thought they were?"
Song Tian'er thought for a while, "I've never heard of this name, no matter what two words it is, it seems to be a mouthful."
"With a fair face, carrying a lantern, and appearing in such a rainy day..." Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Plague ghost..."
Song Tian'er still didn't expect the meaning of his words.
No matter who does not believe in ghosts and gods, after hearing these words, he would never think that a living person is a ghost that can bring disasters.
It is difficult to tell the truth about ghosts and gods. Chu Liuxiang is not a talkative person. Ever since he saw a ghost, he can't help but think that maybe every move of mortals is indeed under the prying eyes of ghosts and gods.At this time in such a small county, the intermittent rain for half a month, the muddy puddles under the feet, and the not bright weather all brought a kind of ominous.
Chu Liuxiang even suspected that after the name was spoken from his mouth, the plague ghosts would feel something, and maybe they would focus on them to infect people with the plague.
"Oh!" Song Tian'er said, "Just talking, that girl has gone away. It seems that there will be no way to find her for a while, so let's forget it. Brother Chu, where are we going next?"
She could tell that Chu Liuxiang didn't want her to meet the woman in red, so she changed the subject.
Chu Liuxiang pondered for a moment, "Let's go to the medical clinic."
Gu Anning walked around Yong'an County, watching the diseased water flow into the river and into the wells where people in the county drink water.
Although the coverage of the epidemic in this way is wide, its power is much weaker.
However, for a mortal body, it is also a disease that is difficult to endure.
In two days, the epidemic will become prevalent in the county.The yamen and the pharmacy are still functioning. Although it is difficult to get through it safely, it is not impossible.
The time here has some deviations from the real world.
When Gu Anning left yesterday, it was evening in the mission, but it was late at night in reality.It was in the morning when he re-entered the mission, but it was evening during the mission.
It was dark and soon it was curfew time.
The rain stopped for a while, and then it seemed to catch a breath for a moment, and then it started to fall again immediately.
There was no one on the street, so Gu Anning turned the oil-paper umbrella into a lantern, and wandered the streets with it.
The plague ghost really likes his lantern.
Gu Anning looked at its faint light in the dark, and the more she looked at it, the more lovely she felt.He thought, it doesn't matter if he stays here for a while longer, even if he returns to his body, there is nothing to do, the most important thing is that he is troubled by Yin Qi, and it takes too much energy to make him do anything.
In two days, system protection will be turned back on.In two days, he will be able to complete this task, and go back happily to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with his eldest brother.
Gu Anning floated to the highest roof, looking at the darkness below.
The moon was covered by dark clouds, but there was no thunder or lightning.
Everyone knows that ghosts are afraid of Thunder Point, especially after they have karma, they will never appear on the night of Thunder Point.
But the plague ghost is exercising its own rights. It wanders around the world and should not be hindered.
Gu Anning looked at the lantern for a while, and then at the rain for a while.
A figure flew over from a distance and landed lightly beside him.
This time, there was only Mr. Jinyi alone, without the little girl he brought with him that day.
He didn't hold an umbrella, and his body was already drenched by rain, but he didn't care at all, his toes landed on the roof, and he gracefully brushed her hair behind her. He flicked his clothes and sat next to Gu Anning.
"Girl, do you remember me?"
"Don't call me a girl." The candlelight in the lantern flickered a few times because of Chu Liuxiang's arrival, and he looked down at the candle wick without giving him a look.
Chu Liuxiang could see clearly now.
There is indeed no shadow.
Chu Liuxiang was stunned for a moment because of his gender.However, he quickly calmed down. For ghosts like Plague, gender is no longer important.Whether he is a man or a woman, what he can do does not change.
Chu Liuxiang has a deep fear of the plague ghost, not because he is afraid of contracting the disease, but because of fear and confusion about the unknown.
Most ghosts will be reincarnated after fulfilling their obsessions. Even a vengeful ghost like a ghost only targets those who hurt him.But the plague ghost is different, just from the words, you can know his frightening features.
Chu Liuxiang looked down, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "The night on a rainy day is beautiful, but it's a pity that few people know about it."
Gu Anning didn't understand why he said that, and looked at him suspiciously.
It seems that plague ghosts are easier to communicate with than evil ghosts.
"There are many beautiful things in the world, but most people are so busy that they don't have time to stop and watch. It's a pity." He said, "Have you ever met the residents in the county?"
Gu Anning nodded.
Chu Liuxiang: "Are they much cuter than yesterday's bandits?"
Gu Anning thought of the little doctor in the pharmacy, and nodded again.
"I know you are a plague ghost, but I think that before you become a ghost, you should be an individual first, and you will also be affected by human affairs and make some decisions."
Gu Anning: "For example?"
Chu Liuxiang touched his nose, wiped off the rainwater on it, and turned to look at Gu Anning.
Gu Anning's body was still dry, his red clothes fluttered in the wind, unlike himself, which was all stuck to his body after being wet by water.
"You came here to spread the disease, right?" Chu Liuxiang asked gently.
Gu Anning nodded, "Not bad."
Chu Liuxiang said, "Is there any way to make you give up?"
Gu Anning was stunned for a moment, he pursed his lips, without any expression on his face, "I will not give up. But...you can prepare in advance to deal with the arrival of the epidemic. The life and death of human beings has nothing to do with me."
When he was taken away by the bandits, he smiled all the way, looking so gentle that he was fake.After putting the virus on the bandit boss, Gu Anning restrained his smile, but Chu Liuxiang couldn't deny that his non-smiling appearance was more reassuring than when he was smiling.
Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Thank you for letting me know."
His purpose has already been stated, so Gu Anning stopped focusing on the person beside him, but lifted the lamp and gently put it in his arms.
Gu Anning was easy to get along with, so Chu Liuxiang released her curiosity with confidence, "This lamp is really magical, it can burn as usual in the rain."
"All plague ghosts will have a lamp." Gu Anning said, "It is me, and I am it."
"Is the disease also spread by it?" Chu Liuxiang remembered that his lamp was thrown into the rain by bandits, and was touched by Song Tian'er and himself successively.But he was not in a hurry, because Gu Anning said just now that the disease can be cured.
And even if you really got the plague, it's useless to worry.
Gu Anning shook her head, "I am the plague, and the plague is me. Even if there is no light, the plague will still exist, unless there are no more people in this world."
"I see."
Plagues are born of people, and plague ghosts are also born of people.
Chu Liuxiang realized that what she said just now was wrong in one place.
The plague ghost may not have been a human being during his lifetime, but he was the embodiment of the disease from the very beginning.
How many people in this world can have the heart of a child like the second son of her family?
Gu Anning fell asleep for a long time while doing the task, and now she feels sleepy again.
Even he himself doesn't know whether the sleep after leaving the body is real sleep or not.He didn't have the strength to resist the drowsiness, and Qiutang's voice became smaller and smaller. When he opened his eyes again, it was already dawn.
The mood fluctuated too much yesterday, I didn't sleep well all night, my dreams were full of weird things, and I couldn't remember anything after waking up.
Gu Anning was very tired from sleeping, but she was not in the mood to continue.
It was rare to get up on time, and after washing, he went to the front hall to have dinner with Mr. Gu.
"Not feeling well?"
Gu Anning hesitated, "I slept too much yesterday afternoon, so I didn't fall asleep at night."
He hardly lied, his unnatural expression and erratic eyes revealed his inner thoughts.Looking at it, Qiutang's heart trembled.
Young Master Gu glanced at the two of them and chuckled, "What's wrong with you?"
"The second young master woke up in the middle of the night last night. He was hungry, so the maid served a bowl of red bean soup. The second young master couldn't hold it steady and broke the bowl." Qiutang tried to hold back a smile.

Song Tian'er said, "What else can I do? Sister Rongrong is thoughtful and has strong martial arts skills. She will definitely be able to handle things well! Instead of thinking about them, you should think about yourself. Why would someone chase you down?" ? This time it shouldn’t be from Bat Island, right?”
Chu Liuxiang smiled and shook her head, "I don't know."
He was actually very worried.
Chu Liuxiang is 30 years old. In the past 30 years, he has never seen a ghost once, and he only thinks that the theory of ghosts and ghosts only exists in story books.Fighting and killing are all too common in the Jianghu. If there are ghosts, how can there be a foothold in this world?There is only one life, and everyone should cherish it.
But in the past six months, he has seen ghosts twice.
Chu Liuxiang couldn't help thinking that maybe he had seen ghosts in the past 30 years, but he never discovered their true identities.
Yuan Suiyun had contacts with ghosts and gods before he was alive. If he really passed away...would he also become a wild ghost wandering in the world?
"When will the rain end?" Song Tian'er didn't know what Chu Liuxiang was thinking. She believed that no matter how difficult things were, Chu Liuxiang would always be able to solve them, so she wasn't worried at all.She complained about the continuous heavy rain, the muddy mountain road under her feet, and the lack of condiments used for cooking in the bandits' village, but her heart was very relaxed.
Chu Liuxiang said, "It's been a long time since it rained like this."
They all thought of the small trees broken by the wind that they saw along the way. The situation in the farmland should be more tragic than the trees.
"Brother Chu! Look!" Song Tian'er tugged on Chu Liuxiang's sleeve, pointed to the front and said, "Is that the girl in red that I met yesterday?"
At first she called Sister Hongyi, but after seeing Gu Anning's face, she suddenly didn't know who was older, so she changed her name to "Girl in Red".
"Really similar."
The bright red clothes add a touch of color to the hazy weather. This color is so conspicuous that it is difficult not to notice it.
"Let's go over and say hello to her!" Song Tian'er could tell that Chu Liuxiang had no ambiguous thoughts about him. In fact, Chu Liuxiang rarely had evil thoughts towards girls. Most of the time, it was women who liked Chu Liuxiang's temperament. With a face, he took the initiative to come over.
Although Gu An Ning was good-looking, she acted indifferently, not at all like plotting against Chu Liuxiang.Song Tian'er's intuition was very accurate, and she drew him into the safe zone.
Although she likes Chu Liuxiang and is unwilling to share this liking with more women, it doesn't mean she won't make friends again.
"Sweet..."
Song Tian'er turned her head in confusion, raised her face and looked up at him, "What's wrong, Brother Chu?"
Chu Liuxiang has never told the girls about the bizarre experience of encountering the evil ghost. It was going to be dark again yesterday. He was afraid of scaring Song Tian'er, so he didn't tell her the difference between the evil ghost.
The bandit boss kept talking, but he spoke incoherently, as if he had been frightened into a fool. Few people believed what he said. Everyone was more willing to believe Wang Shine's conjecture——Gu Anning was actually an unfathomable martial arts master. It is so strong that it can block the rain, which is not something bandits with three-legged cat kung fu like them can understand.So the abnormalities seen by the bandit boss are all because of his too high martial arts.
Where are ghosts in this world?
But they didn't stop seeing each other after they separated, the fate between the two of them and the plague ghost was deeper than imagined.
Song Tian'er wanted to take the initiative to run to the ghost in red, but Chu Liuxiang hesitated whether to tell her the truth.
"Did it ever occur to you that she might not need our help?"
"Brother Chu recognized her?"
Chu Liuxiang smiled wryly and touched her nose, "The bandits said her name is Yigui... Have you ever thought that these two words are not what the bandits thought they were?"
Song Tian'er thought for a while, "I've never heard of this name, no matter what two words it is, it seems to be a mouthful."
"With a fair face, carrying a lantern, and appearing in such a rainy day..." Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Plague ghost..."
Song Tian'er still didn't expect the meaning of his words.
No matter who does not believe in ghosts and gods, after hearing these words, he would never think that a living person is a ghost that can bring disasters.
It is difficult to tell the truth about ghosts and gods. Chu Liuxiang is not a talkative person. Ever since he saw a ghost, he can't help but think that maybe every move of mortals is indeed under the prying eyes of ghosts and gods.At this time in such a small county, the intermittent rain for half a month, the muddy puddles under the feet, and the not bright weather all brought a kind of ominous.
Chu Liuxiang even suspected that after the name was spoken from his mouth, the plague ghosts would feel something, and maybe they would focus on them to infect people with the plague.
"Oh!" Song Tian'er said, "Just talking, that girl has gone away. It seems that there will be no way to find her for a while, so let's forget it. Brother Chu, where are we going next?"
She could tell that Chu Liuxiang didn't want her to meet the woman in red, so she changed the subject.
Chu Liuxiang pondered for a moment, "Let's go to the medical clinic."
Gu Anning walked around Yong'an County, watching the diseased water flow into the river and into the wells where people in the county drink water.
Although the coverage of the epidemic in this way is wide, its power is much weaker.
However, for a mortal body, it is also a disease that is difficult to endure.
In two days, the epidemic will become prevalent in the county.The yamen and the pharmacy are still functioning. Although it is difficult to get through it safely, it is not impossible.
The time here has some deviations from the real world.
When Gu Anning left yesterday, it was evening in the mission, but it was late at night in reality.It was in the morning when he re-entered the mission, but it was evening during the mission.
It was dark and soon it was curfew time.
The rain stopped for a while, and then it seemed to catch a breath for a moment, and then it started to fall again immediately.
There was no one on the street, so Gu Anning turned the oil-paper umbrella into a lantern, and wandered the streets with it.
The plague ghost really likes his lantern.
Gu Anning looked at its faint light in the dark, and the more she looked at it, the more lovely she felt.He thought, it doesn't matter if he stays here for a while longer, even if he returns to his body, there is nothing to do, the most important thing is that he is troubled by Yin Qi, and it takes too much energy to make him do anything.
In two days, system protection will be turned back on.In two days, he will be able to complete this task, and go back happily to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with his eldest brother.
Gu Anning floated to the highest roof, looking at the darkness below.
The moon was covered by dark clouds, but there was no thunder or lightning.
Everyone knows that ghosts are afraid of Thunder Point, especially after they have karma, they will never appear on the night of Thunder Point.
But the plague ghost is exercising its own rights. It wanders around the world and should not be hindered.
Gu Anning looked at the lantern for a while, and then at the rain for a while.
A figure flew over from a distance and landed lightly beside him.
This time, there was only Mr. Jinyi alone, without the little girl he brought with him that day.
He didn't hold an umbrella, and his body was already drenched by rain, but he didn't care at all, his toes landed on the roof, and he gracefully brushed her hair behind her. He flicked his clothes and sat next to Gu Anning.
"Girl, do you remember me?"
"Don't call me a girl." The candlelight in the lantern flickered a few times because of Chu Liuxiang's arrival, and he looked down at the candle wick without giving him a look.
Chu Liuxiang could see clearly now.
There is indeed no shadow.
Chu Liuxiang was stunned for a moment because of his gender.However, he quickly calmed down. For ghosts like Plague, gender is no longer important.Whether he is a man or a woman, what he can do does not change.
Chu Liuxiang has a deep fear of the plague ghost, not because he is afraid of contracting the disease, but because of fear and confusion about the unknown.
Most ghosts will be reincarnated after fulfilling their obsessions. Even a vengeful ghost like a ghost only targets those who hurt him.But the plague ghost is different, just from the words, you can know his frightening features.
Chu Liuxiang looked down, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "The night on a rainy day is beautiful, but it's a pity that few people know about it."
Gu Anning didn't understand why he said that, and looked at him suspiciously.
It seems that plague ghosts are easier to communicate with than evil ghosts.
"There are many beautiful things in the world, but most people are so busy that they don't have time to stop and watch. It's a pity." He said, "Have you ever met the residents in the county?"
Gu Anning nodded.
Chu Liuxiang: "Are they much cuter than yesterday's bandits?"
Gu Anning thought of the little doctor in the pharmacy, and nodded again.
"I know you are a plague ghost, but I think that before you become a ghost, you should be an individual first, and you will also be affected by human affairs and make some decisions."
Gu Anning: "For example?"
Chu Liuxiang touched his nose, wiped off the rainwater on it, and turned to look at Gu Anning.
Gu Anning's body was still dry, his red clothes fluttered in the wind, unlike himself, which was all stuck to his body after being wet by water.
"You came here to spread the disease, right?" Chu Liuxiang asked gently.
Gu Anning nodded, "Not bad."
Chu Liuxiang said, "Is there any way to make you give up?"
Gu Anning was stunned for a moment, he pursed his lips, without any expression on his face, "I will not give up. But...you can prepare in advance to deal with the arrival of the epidemic. The life and death of human beings has nothing to do with me."
When he was taken away by the bandits, he smiled all the way, looking so gentle that he was fake.After putting the virus on the bandit boss, Gu Anning restrained his smile, but Chu Liuxiang couldn't deny that his non-smiling appearance was more reassuring than when he was smiling.
Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Thank you for letting me know."
His purpose has already been stated, so Gu Anning stopped focusing on the person beside him, but lifted the lamp and gently put it in his arms.
Gu Anning was easy to get along with, so Chu Liuxiang released her curiosity with confidence, "This lamp is really magical, it can burn as usual in the rain."
"All plague ghosts will have a lamp." Gu Anning said, "It is me, and I am it."
"Is the disease also spread by it?" Chu Liuxiang remembered that his lamp was thrown into the rain by bandits, and was touched by Song Tian'er and himself successively.But he was not in a hurry, because Gu Anning said just now that the disease can be cured.
And even if you really got the plague, it's useless to worry.
Gu Anning shook her head, "I am the plague, and the plague is me. Even if there is no light, the plague will still exist, unless there are no more people in this world."
"I see."
Plagues are born of people, and plague ghosts are also born of people.
Chu Liuxiang realized that what she said just now was wrong in one place.
The plague ghost may not have been a human being during his lifetime, but he was the embodiment of the disease from the very beginning.
