Sun Gan and others put on their armor again and then went down the mountain.

After having a meal on the mountain, these officers and soldiers are now somewhat skeptical about their lives.

These damn bandits actually eat so well. I used to think that bandits were all poor, but now I know that these officers and soldiers are the ones who are poor.

If I hadn't experienced it myself, I wouldn't have believed it.

Sun Gan also got to know Zhang Zeshan. The person they rescued also became friends with the bandits and even came to drink with him. When he talked about Pei Yun, there was admiration and awe on his face.

This made Sun Gan a little confused. No, you, a hostage, eat well and dress well in the mountains. You don't look like you were kidnapped at all.

Why is Xue Wenju urging us to rescue you so anxiously?

Looking at your condition, I'm afraid even if I rescue you, you will run back.

Sun Gan felt his mind was in a mess. Everything seemed like a dream. Was he crazy, or was this world crazy?

But no matter what, they are on the pirate ship.

If they want to get the antidote for the Wuyun Heartbreak Pill, they have to listen to Pei Yun. But if they do this, they are really on the pirate ship and there is no way back.

There's nothing wrong with being a bandit.

This thought popped up in Sun Gan's mind: If I could really have meat to eat and wine to drink every day, I would be willing to be a bandit.

Although he had finally climbed to a position in the military, he still ate the same food as ordinary officers and soldiers, except that his salary was a little higher.

It’s better to be a bandit.

Today's braised beef was really delicious, and so was the big chicken drumstick. Just thinking about it now makes Sun Gan drool. Even if there was no famine, he seldom ate enough meat.

Moreover, the bandits said that Pei Yun was a god, which made him believe it a little, especially the electric baton, which was completely beyond his understanding.

He had only seen thunder and lightning in the sky. If someone had told him that he could hold thunder and lightning in his hands, he would never believe it even if he was beaten to death. But now he believes it.

Taking a deep breath, Sun Gan said, "Brothers, Yiyun Village is different from the villages we destroyed before. You have also seen that there is no shortage of food and drink in the mountains. Now that the boss has saved our lives, let's get this done."

Twenty officers and soldiers nodded.

Someone said: "We have become bandits, so we cannot tell our families. Otherwise, if people find out, it will implicate our families. But my wife and children..."

The others sighed as well.

Sun Gan patted the man on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. As long as this is done, the boss promised us that we can bring our family over. This way, they don't have to worry about food."

"real?"

"Of course it's true. The boss told me personally, so don't think too much about it. If you want to see your family alive, you have to do this well and don't reveal any flaws."

Everyone nodded.

…

Ruifeng County, suburban barracks.

Hundreds of officers and soldiers suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, severe coughing up blood, high fever, and red spots on their bodies. The entire military camp was filled with a strong smell of herbs.

Liu Xiao went to the city to ask a doctor to prescribe some medicine, which he then boiled, hoping to alleviate the symptoms a little.

Xue Wenju also learned about the situation here. He was terrified. He never thought that the plague in Taoyuan County would spread here.

Of course, he didn't know that it was Liu Xiao who did it, otherwise he would definitely report him.

Liu Xiao rarely came to the military camp for fear of being infected.

At this moment, he was writing an urgent letter and sending it to Qingyang County, falsely reporting that the bandit suppression he had failed to achieve was because the officers and soldiers had contracted the plague, so that his responsibility would be greatly reduced.

It’s not that I don’t want to fight the bandits, but there’s nothing I can do since they’ve all been infected with the plague.

"Sir, there is a military officer outside who calls himself Sun Gan and wants to see you."

The housekeeper of the Liu Mansion reported.

Liu Xiao was slightly stunned. Sun Gan was actually still alive. No one in the barracks had come into contact with the corpse. The symptoms left the doctors helpless. They could only do their best and leave the rest to fate. Liu Xiao knew that if he said this, he would definitely not survive.

I didn't expect that Sun Gan, who had come into contact with the corpse, was still alive.

"Does he have any symptoms? Does he have a cough? Does he have spots on his face?"

The butler shook his head.

Liu Xiao's eyes were somewhat cold. The barracks had been quarantined now. If nothing unexpected happened, everyone inside would die, including Cao Rui.

Then the only ones who knew about the plague plan were Sun Gan and others, and no information about this could leak out.

He stood up and walked outside. When he arrived outside the mansion, he saw Sun Gan and twenty soldiers standing outside.

From the outside, there are indeed no symptoms of plague.

"Sir, the bandits on the mountain have been infected with the plague. We can take the next step now."

When Sun Gan saw Liu Xiao, he clasped his fists and bowed before speaking.

Liu Xiao nodded and spoke with concern, "Are you okay? Since the bandits are infected with the plague, and you have also been in contact with corpses, if you feel any discomfort, please tell me immediately and I will find a doctor for you."

Sun Gan's mind was still very flexible. On the way here, he thought of tricking Liu Xiao and the others into going up the mountain to suppress the bandits. Once they found out they had been deceived, given Liu Xiao's temper, he would probably kill them if not the bandits. To be on the safe side, it would be better for them not to follow him up the mountain.

He said, "I do feel a little uncomfortable. I was coughing badly this morning."

Just as he finished speaking, a soldier behind him started coughing.

They are all people who have been infected with the plague. Although they have recovered after taking medicine, they still look very similar when they imitate coughing.

Liu Xiao said: "Then you can follow me to the barracks and rest in the barracks. If we succeed in suppressing the bandits this time, you will have made great contributions."

"Thank you for your understanding, Captain."

Sun Gan breathed a sigh of relief. All he wanted was to rest in the barracks so he wouldn't have to go up the mountain.

Soon, everyone arrived at the barracks and saw from afar some officers wearing masks guarding outside the barracks. Sun Gan was stunned, wondering why there were officers guarding outside the barracks.
