Chapter 46 Cause of Death
In the tent, the lights are swaying, and it is already night. Lin Yun, a stupid scholar, has returned from Langya Mountain. Su Jing had to admire Lin Yun's ability to do things and brought a fairy and Taoist Langzhong here so quickly.
"Are you Su Jing, the legend of Jianye City? I heard from Lin Yun's introduction. The old man was energetic and looked at Su Jing.
Su Jing smiled modestly and bowed quickly, "The old man laughed. There are only some poor skills below. Listening to your tone, do you seem to know Lin Yun?
"Haha, it's more than knowing each other! Lin Yun is my god son. The old man smiled and said, and the afterglow of his eyes also looked at Lin Yun, "This boy suffered a serious illness when he was 16 years old. Fortunately, he met me and cured him. At that time, in order to repay me, he recognized me as a godfather.
Su Jing looked at Lin Yun with some deep meaning and came to his ear and said, "When did you become so capable? Dare to invite acquaintances! I gave you 500 taels of silver, and I'll give you back 300 taels later! One hundred taels of your running fee, one hundred taels of your godfather's fee, and all the rest of the money will be paid.
Lin Yun smiled awkwardly and said, "But all the money was collected by my godfather... I don't have any money on me."
"Don't you have any money? Then I will deduct it from your wages! Anyway, I'm your boss now." Su Jing looked like a vampire.
Li Zhang looked at the old man and said with doubts, "Su Jing, didn't you say that you have caught the spy among his own people? Why did you ask Lin Yun to invite a Langzhong at this moment?
Su Jing waved her hand, then took Sun Fei's hand and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. I'll catch the spy now. You, Sun Fei is the spy among us!"
Sun Fei was a little surprised at first when Su Jing held his hand, but after listening to his words, his face immediately became very ugly.
"What? Is she a spy? Lin Yun also didn't understand, "Sun Fei is a girl... Besides, the food he ate with the group of prisoners?"
"Yes, and Miss Sun doesn't seem to have any motive to kill." Li Zhang didn't think about it.
"The motive for killing never floats on the surface, and the person who often can't be a murderer is a murderer." Su Jing looked at Sun Fei with a fixed look in his eyes.
"Then will you explain?"
"Yeah," Su Jing answered and strode to the middle of the tent. "It's going to start with the change that happened in Jianye City. At first, I was also depressed. Why did those bodies suddenly mutate and produce so many insects in the body? Even a little exaggerated, I found several night pearls from the dead body of Sun Shi. And Sun Fei said that his brother's body was the corpse king!
I fell into endless speculation, but what surprised me that night was that ordinary people could barely escape from the tide of insects in Jianye City and were covered with wounds, and Sun Fei could escape unharmed. Speaking of this, Su Jing looked at Sun Fei coldly.
Until later, many posing 'ghosts in white' suddenly appeared in Jianye City, driving away countless insects. It wasn't long after we captured the group of people pretending to be white ghosts. According to Sun Fei, there is no problem with the food these people eat, otherwise they and the guard soldiers who eat the same meal as them will be dead. In this way, there may be nothing missing, but the piece of paper in the white ghost's hand makes me suspicious.
With that, Su Jing took out a piece of paper and wrote a word "saint" on the paper. He did not give the piece of paper to Li Zhang, but to Lin Yun's godfather Langzhong.
"Sir, please smell the faint smell of medicine on this piece of paper and make sure it is poison." Su Jing walked to the old man and said.
The old man took the piece of paper, smelled it by his nose, and immediately nodded and said, "Yes, this is the smell of calla lilies."
" Callalien? What is that?" Li Zhang asked curiously.
Su Jing took out a flower from nowhere and said, "This is the calla lily. It is the only dazzling flower that is not afraid of corpse poison and miasma that can bloom in the forest in the west of the city. It can also be said that it is exorcising corpse poison.
"Su Jing is right. With this calla lily, it is also easy to get rid of hatched corpses, and it can also prevent the invasion of corpses." Lao Lang nodded and then took out a porcelain bottle and said, "But Su Jing, where did you get what Linyun gave me? Why is it a white grass?"
"White grass? What is this again? Li Zhang was even more confused.
"Oh, these things are called Bai Zhancao... It seems that you are really ignorant, old gentleman, you are knowledgeable! This is the undigested substance from the stomach of the dead prisoner. So does the combination of calla lily and white chopping grass ginseng become highly poisonous? Su Jing said.
Lao Langzhong immediately widened his eyes: "You still say that you are ignorant, and you even know such secrets! Calla and white chopping ginseng can form highly toxic substances. Ordinary people take these two drugs alone, but if they are taken together, they will die in less than half an hour!"
"That's it. Prince Dongqi, you must have some clue now. I began to suspect Sun Fei because I smelled the strange smell of calla lilies on her body. If you take Callalian and then sweat, you will have that faint smell, and you will naturally not be afraid of those disgusting corpses. This is also the reason why she can retreat from Jianye City. Today, in the dense forest in the west of the city, her words made me more suspicious. In addition, with the loss of Yihan and Chen Zhan, I was even more suspicious that Sun Fei had made a ghost.
After listening to Su Jing's explanation, everyone also had a little eyebrows. In this way, Sun Fei really looked like a suspect.
"But this is not enough to doubt me?" Sun Fei still wants to defend.
"Well, you were the first to find out about the death of that group of prisoners, right? Because you already knew that these prisoners would die. And you deliberately ate the same meal as the guarded soldiers to get rid of the suspicion. In fact, you have taken the medicine in advance. Su Jing didn't give Sun Fei a chance. "Don't think I don't know. You and Sun Shi are accomplices!"
"What? Boss, what did you say? Is Sun Fei and the dead Sun Shi an accomplice? Lin Yun's clear thoughts were complicated by Su Jing.
Su Jing smiled coldly, "Lin Yun, do you think Sun Shi is really dead?! All this is just Sun Fei's one-sided words! Sun Shi's body rots like that. Are you so sure that it is Sun Shi himself? Sun Shi is Sun Fei's own brother. After her death, she, as a sister, was not too sad, nor did she perform strongly in helping her brother's funeral. Don't you think all this is strange?"
Sun Fei is speechless at this moment and can only let Su Jing hold it and stay where she is.
"At first, I was also cheated. Sun Shi was very powerful. He was very good at studying corpses, and the scapegoat he found was the same as his own figure. But his sister's poor acting skills betrayed him, and Sun Fei kept saying that his brother had died of the plague from beginning to end. What colorful corpse king, what corpse sanctification, these are all a cover! There must be a big conspiracy behind this! Sun Fei, do you think I guessed right?
Sun Fei's eyes looked at Su Jing and did not move.
"You are so smart, prince! I envy Sister Yihan so much. Why can she stay by your side and be very intimate with you, but I can't! That's right, prince, you guessed right. I killed which prisoners, and my brother didn't die..."
