Chapter 769
"After all, this plague has indeed ended. Previously, I also sent people to investigate, and based on our investigation, we know about this plague."
"Because of their centralized control, coupled with the mobilization of countless Ming physicians to provide treatment in that area, it led to a rapid improvement in their condition."
"Many of the local commoners have returned to normal, so I think it is unlikely that such a situation will occur again this time."
"Moreover, don't you think this is a trap? For example, it just so happens that our small team was captured, and then they claimed that the plague began to spread rampantly again."
"If that is the case, doesn't it mean that those of us who were captured might have already confessed, so they know of our existence?"
"They want to lure us out."
When this military advisor said this, the others agreed one after another.
Because they also felt that this could indeed be a conspiracy.
After hearing this, the Sect Master could not help but fall into deep thought.
If it were any other matter, he might have dismissed it as a conspiracy, but the current situation made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Because he had originally intended to infect the entire Huishan County with the plague, and then personally lead people to the plague-stricken area to exacerbate the spread of this epidemic.
This would threaten the entire dynasty, but now that he heard what his subordinate said, he also felt a hint of worry.
He knew that if this were a trap, then going there himself would be purely asking for a beating.
So when he thought of this, he could not help but fall into a state of conflict.
However, he really did not want to lose such a good opportunity; if this opportunity happened to be real, then once he failed to grasp it,
it would mean that all his previous efforts had vanished, so when he thought of this, he could not help but feel particularly helpless.
And at this moment, he heard another subordinate speak up.
"I know what you are thinking. This matter is indeed very special. If this intelligence is true, if we can control the opportunity well, we can pose a great threat to the other side."
"And this is also our goal, but if it is fake, then we will suffer heavy losses, so I think it is better to take a middle-ground approach."

"For example, we can send a portion of our people to conduct a detailed investigation first, a targeted investigation, to see if they have really implemented centralized control there."
"And whether they have implemented measures to manage the plague on a large scale. Wouldn't that solve the problem? We wouldn't have to be so timid."
After hearing this, the Blood Blade Sect Master felt it made a lot of sense, and it was exactly what he wanted. After all, asking him to withdraw directly at this time,
that would naturally be a very difficult thing to do, not to mention that it was still uncertain whether this matter could become an opportunity.
So as the Sect Master, he was naturally unwilling to give up.
After confirming this matter, the Sect Master directly gave the order: "Then since that is the case, send 50 people to Huishan County for me."
"I want to see exactly what the situation is like over there, whether it is the same as our intelligence, and see if there are really people still infected with the plague there!"
After hearing these words, the other military advisors also felt it made some sense.
Subsequently, they also decided that this could be done. At this moment, the Sect Master could no longer restrain the excitement in his heart, because he knew that if this plague could really spread rampantly,
then it would mean his plan had achieved a complete victory, and it would mean that Ying Mo was simply incompetent, and there would be no one left who could stop him.
Then he could personally go to Huishan County, and at that time, continuously expand the destruction.
He would be able to directly carve out his own territory. Thinking of this, the Blood Blade Sect Master was extremely excited.
The team he sent out could also be considered one of the core intelligence agencies in his hands.
So he was also particularly at ease. Previously, those he sent out were only intelligence personnel who already existed within the sect.
That same night, a 50-man team set out from the Blood Blade Sect.
At this moment, on the other side.
Ying Mo was always staying in a room with a group of people, starting to discuss the plan for the next day.
At this time, he heard Gao Jianli speak: "We have already arranged the situation in the entire Huishan County, and have arranged quite a few physicians to handle things there."
"And they are very cooperative with us. We have also isolated and locked up many people, and those commoners also trust us very much."
"Do they really think that the plague has returned, so everyone is particularly cooperative? It's just that I'm worried, if this goes on for a long time,"
"and the Blood Blade Sect still doesn't appear, our credibility will gradually decline. After all, this plague has no symptoms at all."
After hearing this, Ying Mo nodded slightly.
Right now, Ying Mo was just making everyone in Huishan County perform a good act, just waiting for the Blood Blade Sect to take the bait. After all, if the Blood Blade Sect doesn't bring people over,
then it would be difficult for Ying Mo to find them. Plus, the Blood Blade Sect has always been hiding in the shadows, and no one has ever heard of their whereabouts.
So it is very difficult for Ying Mo to find the other party. This matter is also something Ying Mo has no way of dealing with for the time being.
Only by letting the other party take the initiative to come over,
can Ying Mo carry out the next step of the action.
And at this time, the two elders of the Mohist school beside him suddenly spoke up: "I actually think there is another behavior we can do. For example, we can also arrange for some soldiers to go in."
"Let these soldiers pretend to be infected with the plague. I suppose this way we can scare more people. What do you think of this matter?"
After hearing this, Ying Mo immediately indicated that there was no problem.
Since they were putting on a show, they must do it thoroughly. By the next morning, the residents in Huishan County were particularly helpless.
They had originally thought that they had finally escaped the plague, so they were all jumping for joy, but what they didn't expect was that they had been captured again.
However, this time they didn't have any impatient emotions, because they had witnessed the terrifying nature of the plague before.
So this time they were also relatively serious.
Several small team leaders stood at the front and said to them: "The resurgence of this plague means that we are in a very difficult situation."
"And the appearance of such a situation now means that a crisis has arrived. If this plague is not controlled well, then people will die."
"Of course, this plague is a bit different from the last one. As long as everyone can follow our requirements, then basically you will not get sick."
After the commoners below heard these words, they naturally believed them very much. Every day they would drink some soup medicine provided by the physicians."
"Although they didn't know that these soup medicines were actually just some ordinary water, plus a little bit of other tea leaves, and some ordinary medicine."
The overall effect was not non-existent, it just provided a slight effect of strengthening the body.

And the reason why Ying Mo did this was purely because he wanted to make these commoners feel that they were sick.
And it could also allow these commoners to drink these soup medicines after recovering from a serious illness to improve their health. As for all the expenses involved,
that was naturally covered by Ying Mo, so at this time, these commoners didn't have any rebellious emotions.
And at this time, on the other side.
Everything seemed so orderly. Similar situations had occurred in the entire Huishan County and the surrounding counties, and even in some of the surrounding villages.
Everyone attached great importance to this plague and did not want the previous tragedy to happen again.
Then, at night.
One could see a captain who was originally in charge of controlling the commoners acting sneakily outside.
He walked directly towards the outside, and immediately after, he saw a man in black. This man in black was the intelligence personnel sent by the Blood Blade Sect.
They knew that this captain was an insider, so they wanted to get some information from him, and they used a large amount of money.
And this captain who controlled the commoners on Ying Mo's side was naturally overjoyed and directly accepted this task.
After the two met, the man in black said:
"I will ask you a few questions, you just need to answer truthfully."
After hearing this, the captain nodded immediately, indicating no problem.
"First, I will ask you the first question: why are all the commoners inside locked up together?"
"They are locked up together purely because their illness has not yet healed and the plague is still spreading, so we don't want them to infect others."
"We will release them after the plague is mostly resolved."
After hearing this, the man in black recorded it down and then said: "But according to what we know,"
"shouldn't your plague have already ended? Why is it that such an illness is appearing now?"
To this, the captain could only say: "We also don't know why such a situation would occur, but after these villagers returned,"
"they indeed appeared to have diarrhea and loose stools again, and eventually it even spread directly. This is the real plague, there is no other way."
"We drink soup medicine every day, in order to better recover our bodies, but at the same time, this effect is not very great."
"Every day, several people still die, even with the care of so many physicians, everyone is still living very difficultly."
The captain had actually communicated with Ying Mo long ago, so when he said this at this time,
he appeared very calm and composed.
His eyes were even filled with frankness.
After the man in black heard this, he indicated that he understood, and then took out a set of money and handed it directly to the captain in front of him.
