The commotion in the camp awakened all the people in their dreams. Yu Wen Chengchao did not want to cause panic among the people, and ordered everyone not to walk in their tents, while the guards guarded the camp.

The veterinarian's clothes were disheveled, so he ran over and saw horses lying all over the floor, smelling the smell of dung, he was shocked.

He carried a small medicine box on his back and walked to the side of a horse. He raised the horse’s head, took the tools, pried open the horse’s mouth, and took a look inside. His face was solemn, and he saw mud-like horse dung. Is showing the color of horror.

"What's the situation?" Everyone on the side hasn't said anything. After the veterinarian's inspection, Yu Wen Chengchao asked immediately.

The veterinarian said: "Wait a minute." Asked: "Who is responsible for feeding the horses?"

Someone on the side raised his hand and said, "Here are the three of us." Two people stood beside.

"Come here." Yuwen Chengchao pointed at the person.

The man came up timidly and said, "The little man Dai Sheng is responsible for feeding the horses here."

"What did you eat for the horse?" The veterinarian frowned, "Bring me the horse feed."

Dai Sheng hurriedly turned around and said, "Hurry up and get the rest of the horse feed."

The two hurried away, and soon came over with two buckets of horse feed. There was only one and a half buckets left inside. Yu Wencheng frowned and asked the veterinarian: "Do you think there is a problem with the horse feed?"

"It must be the horse feed." The veterinarian didn't even think about it, and was quite sure: "If only one or two horses show symptoms, there are other possibilities, but so many horses all have diarrhea and diarrhea, it can only be the horse feed." The wooden spoon was scooped out from the toilet bowl. Someone on the side held a torch to light it. The veterinarian leaned forward and sniffed it. Then he took a small wooden stick and turned it over in the horse feed. With big eyes, Yu Wen Chengchao whispered: "What did you find?"

"Look at him, the grass roots here are not in the right color." The veterinarian looked up and said, "It's black in color. In theory, this is absolutely impossible."

"Then what do you mean?"

"Horse feed is poisonous." The veterinarian said with a solemn expression: "Horse diarrhea is caused by poisoning."

Everyone on the side changed their colors, and it was Qin Xiao who was surprised. He suddenly thought that when he was feeding the Black Overlord before, the Black Overlord had not eaten, but had an unusual reaction. Now it seems that the Black Overlord is more than his horse. Turkmenistan has a lot of spirituality, and I have found that there is a problem in the horse material.

At that time, the veterinarian obviously didn't think it was the horse feed problem, and didn't even check the horse feed, but only checked the black bully.

Thinking about it now, Qin Xiao was secretly grateful, but fortunately the Black Overlord was extremely spiritual, otherwise he would become like this after eating horse feed.

While they were speaking, another horse fell continuously.

The caravan's horses and the guards' mounts add up to a total of more than 70 horses, divided into two groups on the left and right sides of the camp. There are nearly forty horses here, and most of them have fallen down by this time.

At this time, I heard someone yelling from the other side, and I knew that the horse over there was in the same trouble.

"Sir, are these horses dangerous?" Someone next to him asked at this time. Qin Xiao looked over. Seeing that the two shopkeepers Tian Dou also ran over at some point, there were more than a dozen people gathered around. Qin Xiao didn't have it just now. Paying too much attention, it was the shopkeeper Tian who questioned.

The expressions of these two shopkeepers were extremely ugly, and the anxious look between their eyebrows could not hide.

The dozens of trucks of goods are all owned by the Tian Dou family. The value of these goods is naturally high. If there is any loss, even if it is not bankrupt, it will inevitably cause a heavy blow to these two families.

To transport goods, you can only rely on horses. If these horses have problems, the goods cannot be transported.

"Tian, ​​don't worry." The veterinarian knew Tian, ​​"Although these horses are poisoned with diarrhea, they are not dead. I brought some medicine, but there are too many poisoned horses, and the medicine is only enough for 13 or 4 horses. Take it."

Yuwen Chengchao said: "Mr. Hurry up to dispense the medicine and give it to the guards' horses first."

What he considers now is not whether the caravan can continue to move forward, but to ensure that the team can cope with the danger that comes at any time.

The combat effectiveness of the guards must be guaranteed. If you choose to rescue, of course you must save the horse first.

"Lord, even if you take the medicine, it will take five or six hours at the earliest to be effective." The veterinarian said: "As for other horses, drink more water. It will take a day at the earliest to recover." He looked up. The color of the sky: "I will definitely not be able to walk tomorrow, and I won't be able to leave until the morning after tomorrow."

"So from now on, we will be trapped here the next morning?" Yuwen Chengchao asked.

The veterinarian nodded: "Unless you can find the medicine, take it immediately, maybe you can leave tomorrow afternoon, but the amount of medicine for diarrhea is not enough, and there is no material for temporary dispensing near here. There is no way to do it." The eldest son forgive me."

"Mr. First take the medicine for the war horse." Yu Wencheng said: "Others quickly get water and let Maduo drink." Turning his head and looking at the groom named Dai Sheng, he said: "You come with me."

Dai Sheng was uneasy, Yu Wencheng led Qin Xiao and others to the lake, and then asked Dai Sheng, "The horse material is poisonous, what do you say?"

Dai Sheng knelt down on the ground, and said: "Grandpa, the little man really doesn't know that horse feed is poisonous. Even if the little man eats the bear heart and leopard gall, he dare not feed the horse with poisonous horse feed."

"Lord, Dai Sheng has been in the trading house for five or six years." Shopkeeper Tian, ​​who came with Yu Wenchengchao, said: "He says he will leave the customs twice a year, and each time he leads someone to feed the horses. For many years, there has been no mistake."

"You guys think too much." Yuwen Chengchao said, "I didn't say that Dai Sheng poisoned him. I was asking him what was unusual about the ingredients today."

Dai Sheng was relieved when he heard Yuwen Chengchao say this. He raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve. After thinking about it, he said: "As before, we took the horse feed from the car and put it in buckets. Inside, use a wooden pestle to pound the ingredients, then add some water and salt, from beginning to end, nothing is wrong."

"The cargo on the car has always been guarded." Ning Zhifeng frowned and said, "You are responsible for the horse material and salt, shouldn't it be wrong?"

"Yes." Dai Sheng said immediately: "There are five people in charge of feeding the horses. We will send people on duty day and night without any problems."

In fact, everyone at the scene understood that when caravans travel, in addition to goods, the most important thing is the food along the way. Whether it is people or horses, three meals a day are indispensable.

Food is the most important thing, just in case, I’m really afraid that other people who want to do things on food, so there will be people watching day and night.

On the side.

"Dapeng, you and Dai Sheng will check the horse material and salt in the car to see if there are any problems." Yuwen Chengchao ordered, Dai Sheng hurriedly led the Dapeng over, and when Dai Sheng left, Ning Zhifeng said: "Lord, someone poisoned the horse feed. Naturally, the purpose is to trap us here."

Yuwen Chengchao nodded and said: "Yes. Although there is Zhuma Lake here, it is suitable for camping, but the terrain is very sinister, in fact the most suitable for ambush."

The two shopkeepers Tian Dou glanced at each other, their faces were very ugly, and they couldn't help but glance at Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao was thoughtful at this moment.

"Wang Xiao, what are you thinking about?" Yu Wencheng looked at Qin Xiao and asked.

Qin Xiao said: "Lord, I wonder who is trying to trap us here? Are Wutuo people? We have only been out for two days. Although it is nominally Wutuo's territory, it is deserted and remote. I don’t see a single figure, and there is no tribe of Wutuo people.” After a pause, he continued: “Although the White Wolf King burned Tangren City, he did not kill the merchants in the pass, and allowed them to do business in West Wind Fort. Therefore, the White Wolf King still has room for this, the Grand Prince has already said before."

Yuwen Chengchao nodded and said: "Exactly. The performance of the White Wolf King does prove that he does not want trade to be interrupted."

"We are now a caravan." Qin Xiao said: "Since the White Wolf King allows merchants to stay in West Wind Fort, it is reasonable to say that they will not easily send troops to attack the caravan. This is the jurisdiction of the White Wolf King. Even if there are Wutuo cavalry, they are also the people of the White Wolf King. For many years, the Wutuo Cavalry has not attacked the caravan. Since the White Wolf King does not want trade to be affected, the Wutuo cavalry certainly dare not attack the caravan easily." Zhu Yuwen Chengchao: "So even if someone wants to attack the caravan, it can't be Wutuo."

"The words of Deputy Commander Wang are not wrong." Ning Zhifeng said immediately: "I don't think it can be a Wutuo. Even if the Wutuo has this idea, there is no need to ambush here. We are now going to their side. In the hinterland of the White Wolf tribe, they are better off."

"Is it a horse thief?" Shopkeeper Tian couldn't help asking.

"This area used to be rampant horse thieves, but in recent years it has been beaten by the Wutuo people and disappeared." Yu Wencheng said: "Zhuma Lake is named because the caravans going back and forth will be camped here. If There are really horse thieves here, so how can the caravan dare to stay here, even leaving a big name like Zhuma Lake?"

Everyone felt that Yuwen's words were justified.

"It's not a Wutuo or a horse thief, so who would it be?" The shopkeeper Dou was also puzzled: "If someone doesn't want to be disadvantageous to us, why should they poison the horse feed and trap us here?"

Shopkeeper Tian smiled bitterly and said: "If you know what the other party is from, it would be easier to do. But we don't know anything, this...this is really worrying."

"If anyone really wants to attack the caravan, it will be within this day." Qin Xiaodao said: "The veterinarian said that although these horses have diarrhea, but they drink a lot of water, they can set off the next morning. I just want to trap us here for one day." His eyes became sharp: "Now we must find out who is poisoning? We have guards day and night. People outside of the caravan cannot have the opportunity to attack. It can only be that there is an insider in the caravan. Before the enemy attacks, we must first find out the insider, otherwise the enemy should unite inside and outside, and our trouble will be even greater."
