Along the way, Xu Jingzhou and Lu Zhixu supported each other and walked slowly behind Yun Yao.

Although they are too exhausted to keep up, they would not dare to keep up even if they could.

Is the little woman in front holding a stone bed in one hand really Yun Yao?

The group walked for a while before Yun Yao found a rental carriage. She hired one and said to Xu Jingzhou and Lu Zhixu: "You go to my house first. My husband will be back in the evening."

They thanked each other politely, stumbled onto the carriage, and were pulled away by the driver.

Chi Xing also saw Yun Yao's serious expression and wondered, "Are these two beggars dangerous?"

Yun Yao rolled his eyes at him and said, "They are not beggars. I just doubt that something might have happened in my hometown."

Chi Xing also shrugged and said, "No, it's probably because you worry too much."

"I hope so." Yun Yao nodded slightly, then quickened his pace, performed Qing Gong, jumped up, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

After a while, she came back empty-handed, picked up two stone beds, and ran away on the roof.

Chi Xing was not convinced, carrying the last stone bed and struggling to catch up.

Dozens of boys behind: What on earth are they here for?

After the stone bed was moved over, the carriage was also late.

Xu Jingzhou and Lu Zhixu fainted in the carriage at some point. Yun Yao's face darkened and he hurried to call a doctor for them.

Fortunately, the problem is not serious. The two of them are just suffering from malnutrition and heat stroke.

Yun Yao made medicine for the two of them and went to prepare dinner. After about two hours, the two of them slowly woke up.

Yun Yao said: "You guys should drink the medicine first, and I'll go find two sets of clean clothes."

Xu Jingzhou said weakly: "I'm causing you trouble, I still want to take a bath."

He was quite embarrassed, but he couldn't stand the smell on his body, so he had no choice but to speak.

Yunyao took two clean bath towels, pointed in the direction of the bathroom and said, "Here, boil the water yourself."

The two of them quickly thanked each other, not shying away from such moments, and went to take a shower together.

After they were all cleaned up, they began to look like human beings. However, it was obvious that they had been wandering for many days, and even the eldest son of the county magistrate's family had become sallow and thin, and looked much rougher.

Yun Yao prepared two extra pairs of bowls and chopsticks. It felt like it was almost time, and sure enough, he heard noises coming from outside. Yu An and Xiao Aqing were back.

Little Aqing can already go to and from school on his own. It is a complete coincidence that we come back together today.

When Yu An saw Xu Jingzhou and Lu Zhixu, he was obviously stunned and asked, "What happened?"

Xu Jingzhou looked complicated and spoke with some difficulty: "Brother Yu, something happened in Ganyu Town. No, the whole Song County and even Ganzhou started to circulate that thing."

There was a buzzing sound in Yun Yao's head, and his scalp suddenly became numb.

That thing should be the red baby.

She said anxiously: "During the college examination, didn't Dr. Yang, who came to the provincial capital, say that he would report the matter to His Majesty? How could this be so?"

Lu Zhixu said: "We didn't know that after that, we didn't wait for the government to take any measures. Instead, the whole town fell into chaos."

"I quit smoking alone, but I don't know when thousands of people got infected."

Yu An frowned and said: "It's so serious but no one stopped it. I'm afraid it's because someone with intentions has blocked the news."

"Yes." Xu Jingzhou said: "I wrote many letters, but I never got a reply. That's when I realized it."

Yun Yao looked solemn and asked, "Tell me in detail what happened after we left."

Xu Jingzhou said: "When we returned to the town from the provincial capital, we learned that my brother had joined the army. Since then, Brother Lu has been recuperating at my house."

"It was probably calm for a while. There was a sudden increase in cases of burning, looting, and human trafficking in the town. At first, they could be punished. Later, more and more people came to the county government office to report the crime. My father noticed something was wrong and sent people to search as hard as possible. They actually did.

A group of people who smoked red babies arrived."

"They don't make tea, but grind the red baby into powder. Some put it in cigarettes, and some smoke it directly. But they are all very violent and aggressive."

"My father locked them all up, but he failed to prevent the situation from getting worse. During this period, my father wrote many times to the county and provincial capitals, but he received no reply. It didn't take long before even the police officers were exposed to this stuff. My father's

There simply weren’t enough manpower, and the town fell quickly.”

"My mother persuaded my father to move the family with him, but my father refused to move. Later, for some reason, this substance appeared in my father's soothing incense, and even he was infected."

"Dean Gu came to us alone. He gave me a letter and told us to take the letter and find Brother Yu no matter what. We knew there was no other way, so we tied up our father and took the whole family out. And

Dean Gu stayed in the town to help the people."

Xu Jingzhou took out a crumpled letter from his arms. Suddenly he became emotional and burst into tears. His face showed unspeakable sadness.

He clenched his sleeves and said painfully: "We were hunted down many times along the way. The policemen and servants were all dead. In order to save our lives, we disguised ourselves as beggars, but we still couldn't escape. My father, mother, and

My aunt is dead."

Xu Jingzhou was stammering and speechless. His family members left their bodies outside, but he couldn't even let them return to their roots.

Lu Zhixu said with a sad expression: "In order to keep us alive to spread the news, my aunt and the others separated from us and lured the people in the dark away. We also hid all the way to get here."

Little Aqing was affected by the emotion, frowned and said, "Did something bad happen?"

Yun Yao calmed down. He touched his head and said, "Yes, but we can solve it. You just need to grow up happily."

Little Aqing put down his bowl and chopsticks, shook his head and said, "I'm full. I'm going to study now and try to help you as soon as possible."

After saying that, he slid off the chair and ran back to the room.

Yun Yao felt sad and happy at the same time, feeling that little Aqing had passed the age where he needed to hide things from him.

However, the nature of this incident was too cruel, so it would be better to avoid him next time.

Yu An took the crumpled letter and without opening it, said: "I will give this letter to Your Majesty."

"No." Yun Yao said quickly: "The power behind it is too great, you will be in danger."

If such a big thing could happen and Your Majesty is completely unaware of it, I am afraid that person is not very powerful in Kyoto, or he is a spy from Xigan.

In short, no matter what, Yu An cannot be allowed to take this risk.

Yun Yao grabbed his hand and said with great determination: "Give me this letter, and I will let the emperor see it."

Yu An's face darkened, and he understood what Yun Yao meant almost instantly.

Lu Zhixu subconsciously said: "What do you want?"

"Break into the palace at night." Yun Yao said: "Don't worry, it will be familiar the second time."
