Quan Xiangren's scalp went numb when he heard the sound of living corpses tearing at the corpses of the boatmen. It was not because of fear, but because cannibalism itself made people very uncomfortable.
"What are you waiting for?"
Lin Bai said: "How many monsters are there? Go in and kill them!"
Quan Xiangren didn't want to be looked down upon, and one or two living corpses were no problem for him at all. He didn't waste any time and strode into the cabin.
The roar of the living corpse sounded immediately, then disappeared again.
Lin Baici walked over and took a look. There were two corpses lying on the floor of the room. One of them was wearing a boatman's clothes and was completely unrecognizable. The other's head had been chopped off.
all
The dead boatman's limbs suddenly twisted, and then he opened his eyes suddenly. After turning irregularly, his eyeballs locked on Quan Xiangren who was closest to him.
Roar!
The boatman who turned into a living corpse rushed over. Whoops!
Quan Xiangren swung his knife and cut off the boatman's neck. Zhi!
Blood shot up into the sky and sprayed on the ceiling. "The infection is getting faster!"
Gu Qingqiu stood behind Lin Baici. After witnessing this scene, he compared it with the scene he saw in Woniu Village. "He was bitten badly. It is probably because the virus load in his body is higher!"
Analysis by Jin Yingzhen.
Everyone looked ugly. Such a fast infection rate meant that as long as they were bitten by a living corpse, there was basically no way to save themselves.
I can only wait to die.
Zhao Decheng came, followed by more than a dozen strong servants. When he saw the situation in the cabin, he gasped.
Hiss! Are there really living corpses?
Zhao Decheng took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat on his head: "Mr. Lin, thank you very much!"
If it weren't for this envoy from heaven, I would have escaped from Shangqing City alive and got on the ship. "My lord, I have prepared some gifts for you. It's not respectful!"
Zhao Decheng laughed along with him and prepared to give gifts."
-
Quan Xiangren is unhappy. I found the living corpse and I killed it, okay? Why did you thank Lin Bai? You didn’t even look at me?
Look down on people!
But when I think about my current relationship with Lin Baici, I feel that I am indeed inferior to others. Hey!
His skills are inferior to those of others!
Quan Xiangren felt aggrieved, like a man with weak kidneys who spent hundreds of dollars to find a hairdresser who spent a long time, but still couldn't get up.
"Captain, who do you think is behind this?"
Gu Qingqiu stepped over the corpse, stepped on the blood on the floor, walked to the box where the living corpse was hiding, and observed it. "I don't know!"
Lin Baici shook his head.
The living corpse was put in a box and sent to the official ship, and then it was triggered. This was obviously man-made. "Zhao Decheng, ask the boatman to turn the ship around and go to the north!"
Quan Xiangren ordered. Zhao Decheng ignored him.
"Nishiba, do you want to die?"
Jin Zhenzhu cursed loudly, feeling that the leader was being underestimated. "I listen to Mr. Lin!"
Zhao Decheng's words made Jin Zhenzhu speechless. What he meant was very simple. Is it worthy of you, Quan Xianren, to give orders?
"Go north!"
After Lin Baici gave the instructions, he directly occupied Zhao Decheng's cabin. He talked with Dae Jang Geum last night and didn't sleep well. Although he wasn't very sleepy, he had to prepare for the next war.
Zhao Decheng did not dare to complain, and even asked the cook to prepare exquisite food, and when Lin Baici woke up, he would personally deliver it to him.
The cold winter wind mixed with some snowflakes blew across the river. The boatmen shouted slogans and worked hard without a moment of leisure. Early the next morning, the official ship stopped at a small pier.
Boom!
Zhao Decheng knocked on Lin Baici's door. "Come in!"
Lin Baici's plain voice came out. Zhao Decheng pushed the door open and entered.
"Your Majesty, I have prepared food!"
Accompanied by Zhao Decheng
With a smile and a wave of his hand, several cooks behind him immediately brought the food over and put it on the table. In fact, this work should be done by the maid, but in the rush of Zhao Decheng coming out, the maid almost ran away, but even though
If they all follow me, I'm afraid it won't be of much use.
The maids receive distinguished guests. In addition to delivering meals, if the guests like them, they are also responsible for serving them. But this time, the girls around Lin Baici were so beautiful.
Zhao Decheng felt that it might not be unusual for others to have his most beautiful concubine come to bed with him. Unless Mr. Lin is good at it.
Zhao Decheng glanced at Jin Yingzhen and the others. He was surprised. Why were the clothes on his body so well? It didn't look like he had fought hard all night.
Is it possible that Mr. Lin has something to hide?
After all, if it were a normal man, if he had a wife as sexy as Kim Young-jin, he would definitely never come to court again. "This is the river fish caught this morning. It is very delicious. Next to it is a radish pickled with spring water from Gangnam Province, which is appetizing.
Let’s eat again”
Zhao Decheng introduced them one by one with a show-off look: "There is also porridge made with rice from Jeollabuk. The beads are round and jade-like, and the texture is like a girl's skin!"
"Eating sashimi so early in the morning?"
Xia Hongyao frowned, sashimi would be fine, but the question is, given the sanitary conditions in ancient Goryeo, how many parasites would the fish have?
"No, you can take it and eat it!"
Lin Baici didn't dare to eat these things, what should he do if he had a stomachache? What's more, the color, smell, and taste were not related to each other, and they looked crude.
"Sir, I got up at midnight last night to supervise the chef who prepared the royal banquet for the king to prepare this breakfast!" Zhao Decheng was about to cry without tears, and he was a little scared, feeling that he was being slapped on the horse's hooves by flattering him.
The cook stood at the door. He originally planned to wait for the envoy to receive him and answer some questions about breakfast. If he was lucky, he could get some rewards. But who knew that the gentleman didn't eat it? He was really ignorant.
"Your Majesty, as long as it is the porridge I make, the king can eat and drink three bowls of it!! The chef couldn't hold it back, and interjected to show off and prove himself. "Shut up!"
Zhao Decheng scolded: "Who told you to speak? Get out of here!" The imperial chef shuddered and quickly lowered his head to retreat.
"what did he say?"
Hua Yueyu asked Gu Qingqiu, and after she translated it, she was shocked. "Is this what your Majesty eats in the morning?"
Hua Yueyu was speechless. She knew that Goryeo was very poor, but no one was as poor as this. "The emperor even ate pickled radishes, so wouldn't the poor have worse food?"
For rice that is worse than pickles, Xia Hongyao can't think of anything else except Guanyin soil and grass roots.
"It was like this in ancient times. They had two meals a day. They drank water during slack times and ate porridge during busy times. People were basically in a state of semi-starvation all year round." Gu Qingqiu was very interested in this food. She picked up a pickled radish and threw it in.
into the mouth.
Um!
It's quite crispy and has no taste other than sourness.
"I have seen some videos of Kyushu in the late Qing Dynasty. Ordinary people lived a miserable life. They were all sallow and thin, and there were no fat people at all. So the living conditions of Goryeo as a vassal state should be even worse."
In the past, Xia Hongyao had no choice but to eat this thing, but now that Lin Baici is here, there are a lot of delicious food in his black altar bowl.
"Take it away!"
As Lin Baici spoke, he took out a gas stove and prepared to cook instant noodles and eat them briefly. Seeing Zhao Decheng hesitate to speak, he felt unwilling and threw him two packs of instant noodles.
"Watch me do it!"
Wash the pot and pour water, cut some lunch meat, prepare a bag of quick-frozen dumplings, wait for the pot to boil, beat a few eggs, then add the dumplings, almost cooked, add instant noodles and add seasonings
Soon, the room was filled with the strong fragrance of Hex Technology. "What kind of fairy delicacy is this? It smells so good!"
Zhao Decheng was shocked, his eyes bulging angrily as he stared at the instant noodles churning in the pot. The imperial chef was swallowing saliva.
As an expert, he was staring at the pot, trying to remember every step of Lin Baici's cooking, and preparing to steal it. In just a few minutes, a pot of instant noodles was ready!
Lin Baici took out a pile of disposable lunch boxes and chopsticks. "Serve it yourself!"
Lin Bai resigned and asked the girls to prepare their own meals. He served two portions and gave them to Zhao Decheng and the cook.
Mr. Zhao was quite sensible, and Lin Baici didn't mind giving him a smile. As for giving food to the cook, people in Kyushu were very hospitable. Besides, a bag of instant noodles wasn't worth much.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"
After Zhao Decheng finished speaking, he took the instant noodles, put his nose to it first, and took a deep breath! It smells good!
So delicious!
And this bowl is actually transparent and very light. It must be a gift from the emperor, right? Zhao Decheng carefully picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks, took a sip, and ate it into his mouth.
A rich and fresh fragrance immediately exploded in the mouth, and then went straight to the forehead, making people's souls feel as if they ascended to heaven in an instant.
This noodle is chewy, chewy and tastes so good that even boiled noodles are delicious! Chef Yu took the bowl, took a bite and burst into tears.
Your Majesty’s ancestor must have been the Royal Chef of Kyushu! It’s incomparable! It’s incomparable!
Snort! Snort!
The two Shenxu natives began to eat noodles.
Xia Hongyao doesn't matter, it has already been taken. Jin Yingzhen is the youngest daughter of a chaebol family and never eats this kind of junk food. Hua Yueyu only eats it to lose weight and rarely eats it, but this is the noodles cooked by Lin Baici.
The two girls decided to make an exception.
"Sir, it's obviously such delicious food, but why do their expressions look so reluctant?" The chef didn't understand.
"Are you tired of eating?"
When Zhao Decheng thought that these people could even get tired of eating such delicious food, his whole body burst with envy. Hey!
Why didn’t I reincarnate in Kyushu?
Compared with other people's meals, what I brought was just swill. The pigs didn't eat it, and the dogs shook their heads. The two Korean natives finished eating and didn't leave, looking eagerly into the pot.
They didn't dare to ask for it, but they hoped there would be some bottom left for them to lick.
Quan Xiangren came over after smelling the smell. He was envious when he saw Lin Baici eating instant noodles again. Having space equipment is such a blessing!
It can increase the comfort of exploring Shenxu by more than ten times.
After everyone had breakfast, they disembarked and went ashore.
The space on the ship was limited, so they only brought two horses, which Zhao Decheng used when he fled. Lin Bai asked Quan Xiangren and Li Taixian to each ride one and go to nearby villages to gather information.
Based on Dae Jang Geum's narration, the great doctor came to the north a few years ago, and it was probably the first time he discovered a living corpse here.
Since there are living corpses, in order to cover up the truth about the dead, it will definitely be called a plague, and there is a high chance that many people will die. Therefore, if you look for a village with a dead population, you will most likely be able to find the place where the living corpses first broke out.
"Fortunately, Goryeo's land area is relatively small. If you go to Kyushu, which has a vast territory and abundant resources, you may not be able to find it even if you search for half a month!" Xia Hongyao breathed towards his hands.
"Yueyu, if you feel uncomfortable, go and rest!" Lin Baici was worried.
The female anchor drank Chinese medicine cooked by Dae Jang Geum. Although she felt better, her mental state was still poor. Bae Dou Moon, who also had a fever, was in even worse condition and started to have a fever again.
Three hours later, Li Taixian came back.
"I heard that three years ago, nine villages were all wiped out due to the plague. It was Divine Doctor Li who went to collect the corpses!"
Divine Doctor Li is very famous, and everyone is paying attention to such a terrible disease as the plague, so many people remember the places where Divine Doctor Li visited at that time.
"So many? It seems we can only find them one by one!" Xia Hongyao frowned, this would take a lot of time.
Everyone looked at Lin Baici, waiting for him to make a decision. "Is there a village over there?"
Lin Baici asked, looking northwest. His stomach didn't growl, but he felt a slight feeling of hunger, pointing straight to the northwest.
"have!"
Li Taixian reported: "But it is a straight woman's village. I suggest you start from other villages!" "Why?"
Xia Hongyao didn't understand.
"Over there is the border. There is a Pozhuwei tribe. Their soldiers often come here to hunt grass and valleys, especially in winter." Zhao Decheng explained.
The Bozhu Guard is powerful and has nothing to eat, so naturally it will come to rob it.
"Leave a note for Quan Xiangren. Let's go to the straight woman's village and ask him to come back as soon as possible!" Lin Baici urged everyone to set off.
"My lord, think twice!"
Zhao Decheng panicked: "Those straight women in Bozhuwei are too barbaric. They drink human blood, eat human flesh, and most importantly, they are too good at beating!"
"Can you beat my team leader?" Jin Yingzhen asked. "Uh."
Zhao Decheng was dumbfounded, but then he had the courage to dissuade him: "It's different. The soldiers of Pozhu Guard are very good at riding and shooting." "I'm from the Tiger Catching Army, and I have pretty good martial arts, but a soldier of Pozhu Guard is in the field.
You can kill ten like me!"
Li Taixian also felt that he should not take risks: "I really can't find it. It's not too late to go here again!" "Shut up!"
Lin Baici didn't want to hear it, he would definitely follow the hunger radar. The group leader made the decision, everyone had no choice but to follow.
In order to prevent the official ship from sailing away, Lin Baici took Zhao Decheng with him, which exhausted the pampered official. Two hours later, Quan Xiangren came back. After knowing the place Lin Baici chose, he
Didn't say anything.
Because Lin Baici has proven that he is right many times, so it is right to believe in him.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, everyone arrived at an abandoned and desolate village. It looked like no one had lived in it for many years.
Snowflakes were floating in the sky, and a layer of fingernails had accumulated on the ground, which was completely white, making the place look even more lifeless.
"Go into the village and look for clues!"
Lin Baici walked in and looked around.
boom!
Quan Xiangren kicked open the wooden door of a straw shed and took a look inside. "I seem to hear the sound of iron chains?"
Xia Hongyao suddenly spoke.
"Why is there the sound of chains?" Kim Jin-soo didn't understand.
