Chapter VIII Epidemics


Fan Qing snorted: "When will you be able to make a little difference and take money from me all day long."

Although he won't do anything to me, it's not interesting to accompany a cripple to enjoy flowers and drink tea every day. ” "Oh, my aunt, don't say yourself so innocently, look, this bracelet on my hand flashes so much that I can't open my eyes, he bought it for you, don't ask for it."

"I'm not here for the two of us, if I don't save some private money, I will rely on your father to kill pigs to earn that money, when will you save enough money to marry me?

It's good that you not only don't appreciate it, but you also block me with words, it's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin. ” "Okay, okay, good Qing'er, I know it's wrong, Xiang Yi, don't be angry."

Jiang Xixi poked out half of her head slightly towards the door, as she expected, it was Wang Yuchen who was talking to Fan Qing, and now, the two were like two strands of rope twisted together, entangled and inseparable.

Her heart seemed to be grabbed and thrown from a high place, hanging lightly in the air, unable to touch the ground.

Suddenly, she remembered the eyes of Yu Wuxian in front of the Silkworm Temple when he looked at Wang Yuchen, he should also have doubts about the relationship between Fan Qing and Wang Yuchen, but why did he still look unmoved?

Could it be that he feels that he is not worthy of Fan Qing, so he doesn't even deserve the right to question?

A gust of night wind blew, the white cat in his arms raised his neck, sniffed a few times in the air, suddenly, it broke free from Jiang Xixi's arms, and its body fell lightly on the stone road, rushing towards the dark night, and the white body was quickly hidden in the night.

Fortunately, the two people outside the door were fighting hotly, and they didn't notice that a cat was running past them, Jiang Xixi put down his breath, and was just about to return to the courtyard, but there was a sudden sound of broken footsteps in his ears, the steps were very light, but they were very fast, densely stepping on the waterlogged stone road, and rushing over from not far away.

What is it?

It's definitely not the sound of human footsteps, but more like some kind of athletic animal.

Jiang Xixi looked at the other end of the alley, it was very dark over there, and those little things were hidden in the darkness, making a rustling sound, and they ran along the main street in groups.

She squinted her eyes and looked into the darkness with bated breath, and suddenly, a few bits of green light floated from inside, especially dazzling in the darkness, and her heart tingled.

"Scared, Wang Yuchen, there seems to be something over there."

Fan Qing finally sensed that something was wrong, and she pushed away the man wrapped around her, her onion-like fingers pointing in the direction of the main street.

However, at the moment when Wang Yuchen turned around, those small footsteps had gradually moved away, and disappeared into the long night that could not be dissolved in Tamsui Town.

"What?

I didn't see anything.

Wang Yuchen's voice still had an unfinished taste, he just wanted to hug Fan Qing into his arms again, but she pushed him away.

"Forget it, my heart is suddenly chaotic, you go quickly, it's not good to be found by my mother in a while."

Wang Yuchen couldn't resist her, so he could only leave stupidly, seeing him leave alone, Jiang Xixi suddenly reacted, and hurriedly walked towards his house, but she left too late, there was a "creak" behind her, Fan Qing had already pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, Jiang Xixi said in her heart that it was not good, and she turned around in a hurry, pretending to have just come out of her house.

"Yo," Fan Qing was startled by her, "I was here like a wooden pestle in the middle of the night, who do you want to scare to death?"

” "I heard something, so I came out and had a look."

"Did you hear that, too?"

Fan Qing's face loomed in the dark, the makeup on her face was a little mushy, two blacks blurred next to her eyes, a pair of peach blossom eyes were scary, but her chin was very pointed, and a warped hook was bent forward, like, like a mouse.

Jiang Xixi shuddered, "Maybe I heard it wrong, I'll go back to the room first." ” "Miss Jiang," Fan Qing stood in front of her, her eyes stared straight at her, and the next moment, Jiang Xixi almost thought that there was going to be a fluorescent flash in her eyes, but she only smiled, reached out and patted Jiang Xixi on the shoulder twice, "The wind is strong, you should rest early." ” Jiang Xixi didn't understand the meaning of her smile, and was about to turn around, but heard a burst of hurried footsteps from the alley, and then, a few yellow lights flashed in front of the door.

Fan Qing ran to the door and shouted into the alley, "Is something wrong?"

” The few people who ran over had already walked away, but their voices were brought to Jiang Xixi's ears by the night wind, "Silkworms, silkworms have appeared." ” The door of Yu's house was surrounded by the townspeople layer after layer, and Jiang Xixi followed the Fan sisters to turn left and right in the outer circle, but he didn't find a chance to squeeze in.

Fortunately, Fan Qing saw an old slave of the Yu family coming out of it, and hurriedly grabbed him, "Uncle Qi, what's going on?"

” Seeing that it was Fan Qing, Uncle Qi frowned and sighed a few times, rubbed his hands and shook his head, "All dead, just like sixteen years ago." ” "What's all dead?"

Jiang Xixi saw the solemn expressions of several people, and couldn't help but interject.

Fan Yin pulled her aside, and his voice was very low, "You are a foreigner, so I don't know, sixteen years ago, there was an epidemic in Tamsui Town, and the beginning of the epidemic began with the death of silkworms, first silkworms, and then people, at that time, no family escaped this disaster, every family had white things, there were no children playing on the streets, and the city gates were blocked by coffins transported out."

At that time, there were rumors in Tamsui Town that the white-clothed man hooked the soul, and at night, the townspeople knocked on the copper and iron tools to exorcise ghosts, and the sound reached nine times, but after all, the rumor was a rumor, although it was spread evilly, but no one had ever seen the white-clothed man, everyone only said that he was a silkworm, but what the silkworm was, whether it was a disease, a rat, or something else, we didn't know anything. ” "But you also said that rats will eat silkworms, which is a normal thing, why are you so nervous tonight?"

Fan Yin shook his head silently, "That's because this is the Yu family, the Yu family is a big silkworm breeder, there are more than a dozen silkworm rooms alone, if all the silkworms in his family die, do you think a few mice can do it?"

” Jiang Xixi was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of the thin footsteps he had just heard: Could it be that those sounds just now were actually made by mice?

However, the movement of the rats is so small, even if they step on the road with stagnant water, there will not be such a loud sound, unless they are surprisingly numerous and a large flock, it is possible to make such a sound, and it is possible to bite all the silkworms of the Yu family to death.
