Origin Chapter 799: Poisoned people

After the silence, Wu Zhongyuan finally broke the deadlock, "What do you think of this?"

The old blind man did not answer, Wu Di said, "According to the opinion of the ministers and concubines, the most urgent task is to determine whether these alien beasts and poisonous insects were summoned by the Beast King, and if so, it is necessary to determine the purpose of the Beast King's actions."

Wu Zhongyuan nodded slightly, and turned to read the memorial of Da Kuang from many bamboo slips. "What do you think about the memorial of Da Kuang?"

"Ordinary patients will not cause the patient to go crazy and bite, it is not ruled out that it is corpse poison." Wu Di said.

"Probably not," the old blind man shook his head and said, "Wu Baiye is a mature, prudent and insightful person. If it is really a corpse poison, he should be able to see it, and there is no reason for delaying the report."

"This matter is no trivial matter. I have to go to Dakuang in person to meet Wu Baiye." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Seeing that there was no objection from the two, Wu Zhongyuan left his seat and stood up, "You all pay close attention to the memorials presented by the Dayuancheng, and if you find any abnormalities, screen them out immediately."

The two nodded yes.

Wu Zhongyuan did not delay, he teleported away after the explanation.

The place where he appeared was the square in front of the morning meeting hall. Near the morning meeting hall, a low-level warrior and craftsmen were repairing the roof of the morning meeting hall. This low-level warrior had seen Wu Zhongyuan near Shagu that day. , Seeing him coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

After asking the low-level warrior, Wu Zhongyuan knew that Wu Baiye was not in the city, but went out early yesterday. As for where Wu Baiye went, the low-level warrior did not know.

At this time, the city lords of Yuancheng possessed great power, combining military and political functions, but they were not allowed to act recklessly. They were not allowed to go to the capital without being summoned, and without the approval of the Yellow Emperor, the city lords of Yuancheng were not allowed to leave themselves. Yuancheng, contacting the memorial that he had seen before, Wu Zhongyuan guessed where Wu Baiye went, asked the specific location of the two besieged cities, and left Dakuang Lingkong westward.

There are two ways of teleportation, one is to go wherever you want to go, and the other is to go there when you see it. At this time, Wu Zhongyuan used the second one. He had never been there before. The two besieged fortresses could not go there in an instant, and could only teleport a short distance within the visual range.

After half a column of incense, Wu Zhongyuan rushed to the besieged city called Dongling. There were two villages, Xiling and Dongling, which were found to be strangely ill. There was only a mountain between the two besieged cities.

Wu Zhongyuan saw thick smoke from far away, and smelled the scorched stench again a few miles away.

Dense smoke appeared in the open space on the east side of Dongling Mountain, and a group of people stood beside the roaring bonfire, among them Wu Baiye, the owner of Dakuang City.

It was already early winter, and the north was cold. Wu Baiye stood in the upper wind with a big purple cloak with thorns on it. Around him stood more than a dozen red and blue warriors. Everyone stared at the burning fire. The expression is very solemn.

A large number of crumpled corpses were piled up on the fire, and there were more than two dozen of them by visual inspection.

Wu Zhongyuan did not deliberately hide his figure, and appeared directly in the open area where the fire was located.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan coming, Wu Baiye was a little surprised and hurriedly led the crowd to greet him.

Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand to everyone, motioned them to get up, then turned to Wu Baiye and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

"Your Highness, there must be a plague here," Wu Baiye said.

"Probably?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned.

Wu Baiye was slightly embarrassed, "My subordinates are ignorant and ignorant, and it is difficult to tell the details. This strange disease is very strange. It looks like a plague, and it looks like a corpse poison. It is called a plague, and the infected person is bloodthirsty and hurts people. It is said that it is a corpse. Poison, but not all poisoned people are caused by being bitten by others.”

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan frowning, Wu Baiye pointed to the fire and explained in detail, "Most of these clansmen who died suddenly fell ill, and they were not bitten by infected people before they became sick."

"How did these people die?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"These people have lost their minds. They don't recognize their six relatives. They go crazy and hurt people. They are sure that they can't be cured. They can only do everything they can to avoid harming the innocent." Wu Baiye sighed after finishing speaking.

Wu Zhongyuan glanced at Wu Baiye, then asked, "You arrived yesterday, can you find anything after investigation?"

"Yes," Wu Baiye answered in the affirmative, "the people who got sick in Dongling live on the west side of the besieged city, while those who get sick in Xiling live on the east side of the besieged city. I suspect the problem lies in two The mountain between the besieged cities."

Hearing Wu Baiye's words, Wu Zhongyuan turned his head to look at the mountain between the two besieged cities. Sparse.

A mountain like this is hard to hide, but since it is here, it is necessary to explore the mountain between the two besieged cities.

When Wu Zhongyuan turned his head to look west, Wu Baiye said again, "My subordinate once went into the mountain to explore the reason, and found that there is a deep pool in the mountain, with water eyes under it, the water overflows itself, and there is nowhere to vent, only to divert things. On both sides, the person with the disease in Dongling and the person with the disease in Xiling probably drank the water from the pool before they died."

While Wu Baiye was speaking, Wu Zhongyuan had already completed his perception of the aura of Xishan, and found that there was no abnormal aura in Xishan. Even the water pool Wu Baiye mentioned was not overlooked, but the water pool was very small, but three feet square. It was impossible for such a small pool to hide evil things, and the most important thing was that he did not perceive the water pool. There is an abnormal smell.

"Let's go, go to Xishan and see." Wu Zhongyuan lifted off the ground and swept towards Xishan.

Wu Baiye immediately followed, and several other blue-qi warriors followed.

"Are there any sick people in the two besieged cities?" Wu Zhongyuan asked Wu Baiye as he flew by.

Wu Baiye shook his head, "This strange disease is very domineering. The day before yesterday there were only two or three people, and today there are forty or fifty people. Even the doctor sent earlier has contracted the strange disease, lest the infection spread. A strong man can break his wrist and eradicate it by the root."

Wu Baiye kept peeking at Wu Zhongyuan out of the corner of his eye when he spoke, anxiously wanting to know what he thought of his move, but Wu Zhongyuan did not make a clear statement, neither saying that he did the right thing, nor to him Criticize.

Dongling is located on the east side of the mountain. After a while, Wu Zhongyuan came to the water pool Wu Baiye said. This is a deep pool, surrounded by bluestones. , which means that the Qingquan Stone is high.

Wu Zhongyuan was not afraid of a hundred poisons and tried to drink water. Seeing this, Wu Baiye hurriedly tried to stop it, but Wu Zhongyuan had already taken a sip.

"Don't put yourself in danger." Wu Baiye urged him to dissuade him.

Wu Zhongyuan spat out the spring water in his mouth and stood up, "There is something in the water..."
