"If you don't want to die, confess now. Talk now or die now, choose one," Zhu Chumo said impatiently in a low voice.
How could a greedy person like Jin Chang not be afraid of death? He is the kind of person who cherishes his life the most. He would not hesitate to exchange the life of his entire clan for his own. How could he possibly want to die?
Sure enough, a little scare and he revealed his true colors.
“There’s another small town, two days’ journey from Qingyang Prefecture. That town has a total of over two thousand people. I had someone throw the dead rats directly into their drinking wells, so that no one can escape,” Jin Chang said weakly, his eyes lowered.
"When did you make your move?" Zhu Lin narrowed her peach blossom eyes, her gaze filled with icy glints.
"Half, I went to a small village nearby half a month ago, and the attack was carried out in that town three days ago."

"Okay, I'm relieved to hear that." Zhu Chumo's expression relaxed.
The herbs in Zhu Lin's mustard seed space are not available outside. Many of Zhu Chumo's miraculous pills were actually made from herbs given to him by Zhu Lin.
The current situation is that there is nowhere to collect medicine, and the number of people infected with the plague is too large. If an effective antidote is not developed in time, Qingyang Prefecture will surely fall.
It will soon spread to surrounding prefectures and even more distant areas.
