Chapter 489 The rain stops

The whole body of the bug was scarlet. Although it was two inches long, its body was extremely thin. After emerging from the wound, it coiled itself into a circle, making it difficult to tell the circumference of its head.

Seeing that it didn't move, Wang Jingzhi was filled with curiosity, but seeing Yuan Bao next to him still staring closely at the insect, he wisely closed his mouth tightly, just waiting for the second master's next move.

The little black worm immediately broke away from Shen Wenchen's flesh and blood and headed straight towards the tiny worm.

In just one breath, the little black insect seemed to have discovered something delicious. He lowered his head and bit it in one bite, unwilling to let go.

The second master's frown finally relaxed. He extinguished the incense with one hand and placed the iron box on Shen Wenchen's calf again with the other hand.

As if understanding his intention, the little black bug stopped ink-marking and just bit his meal tightly, dragging it back into the iron box.

After closing the lid, the second master carefully placed the iron box and the remaining half of the incense, and then dusted off the non-existent dust on his body.

"Okay, just wait for him to wake up." After saying that, he seemed to have remembered something, and turned to look at Wang Jingzhi and continued.

"The poison has been removed, but he is too tired and has a cold, so the rest will be left to you."

"yes!"

Seeing the so-called Gu insect for the first time, Wang Jingzhi felt indescribably excited and quickly agreed.

Except for some of the more serious ones who are still resting, most of the people who came back have woken up. Those people can be taken care of by the aunt in the village. Now Brother Shen is safe and sound. He even saw the so-called Gu worm with his own eyes. He thought It's hard not to be excited.

After the second boss left, Yuan Bao let go of the corner of his clothes that had been wrinkled by him.

"Yuanbao, where is the second master from? How come he has so many things!"

Wang Jingzhi seemed to be asking about Yuan Bao, but also seemed to be amazed by his talent.

"Uncle Wang, I'm only five years old. How do I know?"

Yuan Bao curled his lips and said helplessly.

"Uncle said the wrong thing."

Wang Jingzhi looked at the little baby with an apology on his face and just smiled and rubbed her head.

"Yuan Bao, go back and play with Xiao Qi. There are many sick people in the courtyard, don't get sick."

"I……"

The little girl suddenly blushed and hesitated to say the next sentence.

Although she had reconciled with Brother Xiaoqi, she was a little embarrassed because she had been losing her temper for so long...

Everything outside the city is slowly getting better, but inside Yancheng there is a deathly silence.

Just as everyone was rushing into the medical center and pharmacy to grab medicine, countless rats had already poured into the dog holes under the city wall.

Under the collapsed ruins are holes dug by rats, and there are rat bite marks everywhere on the wood.

Those abandoned houses were filled with a stench, and rats were hiding in the dark, staring at the passers-by on the street.

After buying medicine, everyone hid in the house again, leaving only the echo of rain hitting the ground on the empty streets.

The black crows and rats wandered through the streets and alleys, and finally they all poured into the empty house in the north of the city.

The huge He Mansion was empty, the plaques were covered with cobwebs everywhere, rats were wandering around the courtyard, and the figures on the wall were so startled that they almost lost their balance and fell down.

The little boy was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him. He could only try his best to curl up and prevent them from discovering him.

The rain continued for another seven days.

Finally on the eighth day, a ray of sunshine penetrated the dark clouds and fell on the ground.

After the rain, frost formed around the house, and Yancheng returned to the world of ice and snow again.

Nanzhi has lost a lot of weight. Her originally fair and plump body now has skinny limbs. Only the bulge in her abdomen reminds everyone that she is still a pregnant woman.

"How was it today?"

Nanzhi's eyes were slightly green, but his movements did not stop.

Seven days ago, Xiaomi returned to the City Lord's Mansion soaked to the skin.

The young boy's face was full of fear and panic.

He said that he saw thousands of black rats in He Mansion and smelled the same stench as outside the city.

Face their doubts and confusion.

The young boy only said that he originally wanted to go outside the city in the rain to find herbs and bring them back to Wenwen's house.

Many children in the city suffered from high fevers. Some saved their lives by relying on decoctions, while others had high fevers and talked nonsense all day long. Perhaps because they had suffered a lot in the past, Xiaomi's body was actually stronger than the three children of the Lin family. Be better.

I have never been sick.

Xiaomi has been worried about Wenwen since the last time she saw an uneven road and drew her sword to help.

That little girl is so thin and has a weak mother-in-law. I don’t know what’s going on...

The idea of ​​taking a look came up in his mind, and the young boy tried to suppress it, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he would see the timid and helpless face of the little girl.

After struggling for a day, he finally couldn't hold it back and secretly left the house.

As expected, Xu Qiuju's family was living a miserable life. Wenwen had a high fever and she was already feeling a little confused.

Xiaomi knew that the decoction in the medical center and pharmacy might not be useful, so he planned to sneak out of the city along the dog hole.

After all, it's raining heavily now, so those mice probably won't come out.

Although the soil outside the city has deteriorated, as long as we find one herb, Wenwen will be saved. If we can find more, other people in the city will have more hope of survival.

But before he left the city, he saw a nerve-wracking scene on the wall of He Mansion.

The He Mansion was crowded with rats, and their squeaking sounds were masked by the sound, but the white figure among them was particularly conspicuous.

Those mice are listening to the command of the white mouse in the middle!

After discovering this truth, Xiaomi almost fell off the wall.

Fortunately, it was raining, and the sound of rain diluted the smell on his body, so he was not discovered.

He didn't have time to look for any herbal medicine, so he crawled back to the city lord's mansion and told Nanzhi about it.

Nanzhi was also confused when he knew that so many rats had come into the city.

But recalling that both Shen Zhiyu and Xiaomi could get out of the city through a dog hole, how could there be less such a big dog hole in Yancheng?

Moreover, the rain was falling in a strange way, maybe not unusual.

A few days ago, she asked Liu Jie to lead people to notify the people, and then brought out the remaining five-poison powder from the Dragon Boat Festival from the warehouse and distributed it.

Although this rat is not among the five poisons, it is guaranteed to have some effect.

I don’t know why, but there has been no big movement for seven days. The rain stopped today, and Ah-Dai flew back from outside this morning. She just happened to write a letter to the village outside the city to talk to Shen Wenchen about things in the city.

Dui gained weight, and when he saw that Nanzhi had written the letter, he obediently rubbed his head against her palm.

"Dumb, go and come back quickly."
