Chapter 60

Unconsciously, Yun Sheng and Yun Canghai had entered the central region of the Great Zhou Kingdom. In the Dazhou region, the central part is a broad and soft sandstone plain.

This area lacks lush plants like Jiaoye Village. It is windy and rainy, and the weather is very dry. On windy days, the sand and stones patted the scaffolding of the carriage, making a creaking sound.

On this day, Yun Canghaile stopped the horse, stopped, looked up at the sky, and frowned.

Yun Sheng noticed that the carriages and horses had stopped, and lifted the curtain.

For some reason, the sunlight in this area seemed very dim and weak, and when I looked at the sky again, it was drowsy, like the smoggy city in the north where Ji Yunsheng lived in his previous life, and it was difficult to see the color of the sky clearly.

"Father?" Yun Sheng keenly noticed that Yun Canghai's expression was very solemn.

On the wasteland in front, there appeared a small team that snaked forward like a military centipede.

"Father, who are those people?" Yun Sheng's eyesight was excellent. She even saw the true face of the "centipede" earlier than Yun Canghai. It was a refugee team composed of a group of old and weak women and children. ragged.

"It's a refugee," Yun Canghai also saw the appearance of that team.

Yun Canghai had visited the central region of the Great Zhou Kingdom in his early years. In his memory, it was not such a desolate scene. Why did such a large group of refugees suddenly appear?

The group of refugees had reached the carriage.

"Sister, do you have any water?" A four or five-year-old child came over and pulled the tarpaulin of the carriage pitifully. His lips were split like old tree bark.

The water and dry food that Yun's father and daughter brought along the way were insufficient. If they took it out hastily, it would only lead to looting.

The few men in the team showed a fierce look and rushed out like a vicious dog, but their posture was to snatch the luggage of Yun Sheng and others.

Almost in an instant, a wall of fire rose up on the ground, and the wall of fire was indestructible, shooting violent flames one after another.

The men who intended to commit the murder were frightened, and they were all terrified, magicians, magicians.

"Master Mage!" The men thumped a few times and knelt to the ground, "Master Mage, save us!"

The magic scepter in Yun Canghai's hand was hidden under his clothes, and he had a vigilant look on his face. He was not a good man and a woman. For him, his daughter's safety was more important than anyone or anything.

Yun Canghai's wall of fire was scorching hot, causing the surrounding temperature to rise a lot in an instant.

Seeing that Yun Canghai was indifferent, those few men stood up in disappointment. They pulled the begging children, helped the dying old man, and slowly moved forward.

They have long been accustomed to the indifference of passers-by. On the way, they have begged countless passers-by, but when the other party heard the name, his face changed greatly.

"Wait a minute," Yun Canghai said suddenly. He caught a glimpse of a family crest embroidered on the luggage of an old man at the front of the queue. The family crest was an auspicious cloud-shaped sign.

Those villagers still had some scruples about Yun Canghai.

Yun Canghai removed the wall of fire.

At this time, at the end of the queue, a weak child couldn't bear the exhaustion all the way and passed out. No matter how the relatives next to him shouted, there was no response.

Seeing this, Yun Sheng stepped forward quickly, "Father, he has a heat stroke. If he is not treated in time, he will die," Yun Sheng said, ordering several men to carry the child to the carriage.

For a few miles, it was deserted, and only the carriage could temporarily serve as a shade.

Yun Sheng immediately undid the child's bag of water, sprinkled some salt in the water, and fed the child a few sips.

Heat stroke can be big or small. If there is no timely treatment, it will kill people, especially the frail children and the elderly.

Yun Sheng took out the bone needle again, and took a few needles on the child's forehead. After picking out some black blood, the child's complexion was slightly better.

During the time when Yun Sheng was treating the children, Yun Canghai had already chatted with an elder in the queue.

"Old man, if you read it correctly, this area is the territory of the General's Mansion. You should be the citizens of the General's Mansion. Leaving the territory without permission is a capital crime. Why did you leave the territory for no reason?" After making military exploits with the emperor, they will be rewarded.

Since the land given is a domain, those who have lived in the domain for generations are subject, and the subject is equivalent to the lord's private property. Without the lord's order, they cannot leave without permission, nor can they move with their families.

"Dear Master Mage, it's not that we are not afraid of death, but that we have no home to return to. There used to be more than 2,000 people in our village. Since the strange cloud came to our village, these are the only people left in front of us," Yu Yun The man who Cang Hai talked to was the head of the village.

He sighed and told Yun Canghai that he was indeed a civilian who belonged to General Wu Sheng's residence. Their village has been living well in this neighborhood. About half a month ago, a red cloud floated above the village.

The villagers didn't pay attention to it, they just thought it was a strangely colored cloud, but day by day, since the cloud appeared, strange things have happened in the village.

"First, the animals in the village died one after another, then the well water dried up, and finally even the crops planted in the village died. The most terrifying thing is that the cloud in the sky keeps getting bigger. The entire village was shrouded in that cloud. Every once in a while, a strange wind rolled up in that cloud, sucking all the dozens of villagers in.” When the villagers realized something was wrong, more than half of the villagers were already there. The villagers were sucked in by the strange cloud.

A strange cloud that can draw people into it?

Yun Canghai looked solemn: "What happened? You didn't report it to the General's Mansion?"

The territory is equivalent to the lord's personal property, so any incident must be reported to the lord first.

The lord will send the masters of the family to come and inspect.

"It was sent, it was sent ten days ago, and the villagers who sent the letter to the past have not come back. Seeing that the number of villagers is decreasing day by day, I can only risk the death penalty and move the villagers to the nearby village." The village chief couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Sheng'er, you stay here, stay with the villagers first, I'll go up and take a look," Yun Canghai told Yun Sheng to stay where he was.

He left the carriage for Yun Sheng, and went to the village in front of him to explore.

General Wu Sheng's mansion? Yun Sheng couldn't help but glance at the villagers.

Yun Sheng realized that these people were probably the people of the Yun family, so it was no wonder that his father would intervene in this matter uncharacteristically.

A strange cloud that can suck in people? Is it a monster or an unknown monster?

What kind of monster was that? She kept her father in mind and wanted to follow along to see it.

In my ears, there was a neighing sound of a horse, and there was a woman screaming.

When everyone looked back, a moon-white carriage was galloping like lightning. The carriage was pulled by two beautiful and unusual Gallic horses, with tall and dense necks and white scallops. From head to toe, there was not a single stray hair to be found.

The drivers were two twin boys. They were dressed in gorgeous short magic robes.

A village woman who was pregnant was frightened and fell in front of the carriage.
