The figure came to Su Ying silently, and after confirming that Su Ying had not responded, he took out a cloth bag from his body, and poured the contents of the cloth bag into the fire.

As soon as the powder in the cloth bag was poured into the fire, the fire boiled and burned even bigger.

A thick black smoke rolled out and quickly spread around.

The man turned around and wanted to run when he saw what was going on, but when he turned around, he met Su Ying's calm eyes.

The man was startled, and in the next moment, Su Ying grabbed his neck and threw his arms and legs to the ground.

"ah!"

As soon as Su Ying put his feet down, he threw the dry soil piled up on the side onto the fire. The fire in the fire was extinguished a lot in an instant, but it was completely extinguished after a while.

Su Yingbi held her breath and learned that the person on the ground was brought to the headwind, and after making sure that the thick smoke from the fire would not blow this way, she took out the lighting tool and opened it to the person's eyes.

"ah!"

The strong light made the other party almost blind, and Su Ying pinched his waist, almost crushing his mandible.

"What was thrown into the fire?"

"Mother, mother...forgive me, yes, the subordinates were worried that the fire would burn too hot, and after falling asleep at night, no one would notice that the mountain was burning, so they threw some sand to make the fire smaller."

In the darkness, Su Ying's eyebrows flashed with hostility, "I still have to sleep, don't waste my time, understand?"

"My lord, please forgive me, little one, I really threw away the little one... um!" Su Ying broke a rib directly before the official could finish speaking, and the pain made him almost faint.

Su Ying stood up slowly, still shining the strong light on his eyes, the officer felt that he was about to go blind.

"I'll ask you one last time, what did you throw into the fire? If you don't tell me, I'll let you feed the beasts in the mountains!"

The official didn't expect Su Ying to be a kung fu master, not only good at it, but also so powerful, he was really scared.

"My lord, forgive me. Well, someone gave me the medicine powder. I didn't know what it was. He just asked me to find a chance to throw it into the fire. He gave me a hundred taels of silver. Said, I will give the little one another one hundred taels after the work is done... Ah!" Before the official could finish speaking, Su Ying stepped on the palm of his hand.

"Who is the other party?"

"No, I don't know, yes, I found the little one when I came to the government to deliver water, and the little one saw him as a stranger."

"Before I catch you, I will spare your life!"

Su Ying directly threw the man into the space in a dizzy state and injected him with a hypnotic potion, making sure that he would not wake up within a few days before leaving the space.

Su Ying turned down the light of the flashlight, picked up the wooden sticks on the ground, and went to the fire to pull out the residue inside. She wanted to know what was poured into the fire just now.

She got the ashes out of the fire, judging by the smell and the reaction of inhalation, it should be a kind of poison.

This kind of poison is harmless for people to eat directly, but if it is thrown into the fire and burned, the thick smoke produced during the burning process will form a poisonous gas, and people will be poisoned after inhaling it for a quarter of an hour, similar to It is caused by carbon monoxide poisoning, but the concentration of this toxin is higher, even in the wilderness, as long as it is inhaled, there is a risk of poisoning.

When she woke up just now, the man had just emitted thick smoke, and they didn't inhale much, so it wouldn't have much impact on the body.

The news of her arrival in Los Angeles must have already been spread. Before my own people came, these ghosts and monsters would appear to seek death. I really can't wait.

Su Ying took the firewood and lit the fire again, and brought Zhou Qing and the others back to the fire.

When the sky turned pale, Zhou Qing woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Su Ying sitting cross-legged against her subordinate, she thought Su Ying hadn't woken up yet.

Zhou Qing wanted Su Ying to sleep longer, but Su Ying woke up as soon as she stood up.

"Your Majesty is awake."

Su Ying didn't go to sleep until midnight after waking up the guards. She stretched and stood up, "Wake up, get something to eat first, and continue on your way when you're full."

"Yes, the slave girl wants to cook some dried meat soup with dry food, and it will relieve my body after eating it." The conditions in the wilderness are limited, and Zhou Qing is already trying his best to make Su Ying eat comfortably.

Su Ying has no objections, she is not picky about these.

Zhou Qing put the pot he brought on the fire, put the water in the water bag into it, and waited for the water to boil before throwing the dried meat in to boil.

"It's strange, why didn't you see that kid Liu Qi?" The officer's doubtful voice sounded behind him.

Including Su Ying, there were ten people in total, and if one person was missing, they would be discovered soon.

"I have something to do in the palace, so he has to go back to the city." Su Ying explained without changing his expression.

Hearing what Su Ying said, the officials didn't ask any more questions. What the empress is going to do is beyond their control.

After the broth was ready, Zhou Qing sprinkled a handful of salt and served it to Su Ying in a bowl, "Young lady, eat it while it's hot, the night in the mountains is very cold, eating it can drive away the cold."

Su Ying took the bowl, "OK."

After eating, the group continued on their way, but the higher they went, the steeper the mountain road became, and the speed of the horses slowed down.

Su Ying and the others got off the horse and led the horse in front, only letting the horse carry supplies, but even this speed was not fast.

Su Ying is not in a hurry, she also wants to take a good look at the terrain on the mountain during the journey.

On the third day after Su Ying left Los Angeles, something happened to the victims outside the city.

The officer in charge galloped all the way back to the government, "My lord, it's not good, something happened outside the city."

Wei Zhongming was holding a bowl of braised pork rice when he heard that the bowl in his hand almost fell.

After he took two bites of the meal, he glared angrily at the officer who came into the room and said, "What's the matter, tell me quickly." For some reason, the first thing he thought of after hearing what the officer said was that he was afraid of being held accountable by Su Ying !

What the hell, Su Ying must have acted too much, he would think she was real!

"A plague has broken out outside the city!"

"Kangdang"

Wei Zhongming let go of his hand, and the porcelain bowl fell to the ground, and the braised pork with juices rolled all over the ground in an instant.

"What did you say? Where did the plague break out?"

The officer said with a look of horror: "Yes, it is the refugee resettlement area closest to Los Angeles. Last night, some victims started vomiting and diarrhea. At first we thought it was intestinal discomfort and didn't pay much attention. More and more people fell ill in the middle of the night, and several people died of foaming at the mouth. The little ones were afraid that things would be bad for adults, so they quickly disposed of those corpses, but in the morning, the sick people became more and more sick. There are more and more, and the little ones are afraid that they will not be able to hide it, so they will immediately report to the adults."

Every time the official sent a word, Wei Zhongming's face became ugly. Such a large-scale outbreak must be a plague!
