Chapter 55: Jade Flute Spring Poison
"Where did you get this?" Nanfeng squatted down and looked at the old man Hanako. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Hanako, who was gobbling up at this time, heard Nanfeng's words, and grinned at him again.
"Where did you pick this thing up?" Nanfeng gave up his gentleness and changed his words.
Hanako understood this time, raised her left hand stained with dirt, and pointed to the northwest.
Nanfeng stood up straight, "Take me there." ”
The old name Hanako may be beaten often, and Nanfeng's actions startled him, grabbed the bun with both hands, and turned around in fear.
"Don't worry, you eat first, and we'll go after eating. Nanfeng looked down at the jade flute in his hand, and after looking at it, he grasped it with both hands, twisted it in reverse, and split the jade flute into two.
Fearing that the old man was called Hanako, Nanfeng turned his back to him and pulled out the narrow knife in the jade flute.
The flute body has a blowing pores, and it is always called to use the jade flute to dial the fire, and the grass ash enters the jade flute from the pores and is attached to the blade.
The south wind blows, and the grass ash on the blade falls off, but after the grass ash falls off, the tip of the knife is not as clean as the back, and if you look closely, there are extremely fine stains on it.
Wipe with your fingers and twist to distinguish, much like air-dried blood stains.
He was in the distance when the flower thief killed the little Daogu, and saw with his own eyes that the flower thief inserted the narrow knife into the left chest of the little Daogu, and the bloodstained part of the narrow knife was about three inches, which was very similar to the size and depth of the killing of the little Daogu that day.
Lest he remember it wrong, Nanfeng tried his best to recall the details of the time, and after thinking about it, he recalled a detail, when the flower thief killed Xiao Daogu and did not wipe the blood stains on the blade, he immediately put the knife back into its sheath, and turned to talk to Ling Yanzi.
At that time, the flower thief had no intention of wiping it, and he would take out a narrow knife to clean it afterwards, you must know that the narrow knife was hidden in the jade flute, and if it was not brushed and cleaned, it would be fishy when it was played.
At this time, the old Hanako had swallowed the bun and was trying to pick up the cassava in the ashes, and there were embers in the ashes, and he was scalded back when he reached out repeatedly.
Nanfeng inserted the narrow knife back into the body of the flute, frowned and closed his eyes, and pondered, this jade flute is the weapon of the flower thief, and it is also his vassal elegant artifact, the flute itself is still carved from white jade, it must be very valuable, for such an artifact, the flower thief will never abandon it easily.
Since it is not actively abandoned, it can only be a passive loss, the flower thief is also a thief, no one can steal his weapon, take a step back and say that even if someone can steal it, it will not be thrown away after stealing, and even picked up by this old flower child.
The most likely thing is that the flower thief had an accident, and the time of this person's accident was not long after he rescued Lingyanzi, so that he didn't have time to wipe the blood stains on the blade.
That's all he can think of at the moment, all of which is just his speculation, and the truth of the matter will have to be determined after letting Hanako take him to the place where he picked up the jade flute.
The cassava was half-baked, and she always told Hanako to chew on the grass ash from her clothes, but she was scalded by the cassava, blowing and baring her teeth, and eating embarrassed.
If you haven't eaten buns before, you can eat this cassava, but compared with buns, cassava is hard to swallow. Seeing this, Nanfeng promised to buy steamed buns to eat with him, and the old Hanako listened, stuffed the cassava into his arms, and led Nanfeng back.
When he arrived at the edge of the town, the old man called Hanako did not enter the town, but followed the path to the east of the town and went north into the mountains and forests.
Walking along the winding mountain road for two or three miles, the old Hanako left the mountain road and traveled west from the forest, at this time there was no road under his feet, and I don't know how the old Hanako judged the path.
Not far ahead, there is a ruined wall in front of you, ordinary houses and courtyards will not be due south and north, and the courtyards due south and north are usually imperial palaces or temples and Taoist temples. The remaining walls here are oriented due south and north, presumably an abandoned Taoist temple or temple.
Hanako came to the back of the house with the south wind and pointed to a sheltered place with traces of lying down, "Here." ”
This lying mark was obviously left by the old Hanako, and the south wind centered on the lying trace, pulling grass to search.
"Words count. "I always called Hanako and muttered.
"This one will buy you buns to eat. Nanfeng took out a handful of copper coins from his bosom and handed it to the old man named Hanako.
The old man told Hanako to recognize the copper coin, reached out and grabbed it, and without saying much, he turned around and left.
The ruins are already overgrown with weeds, and there are only traces of stampede around it, so it can be seen that only Hanako herself has been here in recent times, how could this jade flute appear here?
Looking down with doubts, just when he wondered if the old name Hanako was leading the wrong way, another artifact appeared in the grass, a small porcelain bottle, and when he picked it up, it was the oblate porcelain bottle used by the flower thief to store spring poison.
Shaking it, I felt that there was still a lot of medicinal powder left in it, and I pulled out the cork and smelled it, a strong medicinal gas.
Since the porcelain vase appeared here, it means that the old name Hanako did not lie and did not lead the wrong way, but the subsequent search did not find anything, except for this small porcelain vase, and did not find anything else around.
Since there are not enough clues, it is impossible to make in-depth inferences, these two artifacts may just be the flower thief who was unintentionally lost when he fled, but this does not make sense, the porcelain vase may have fallen from its bosom when jumping and moving, but how can the jade flute explain.
Thinking hard to no avail, Nanfeng could only leave the ruins and turn back the way he came.
Due to the delay in finding clues for a short time, I couldn't go to Wanling County, Nanfeng bought some tea melons and fruits from the town, and took the road back to the mountain.
Halfway through, Nanfeng buried the jade flute on the side of the road, at this time Tianqizi and Tianchengzi were not in the mountains, he took the jade flute back, and it was bound to explain the ins and outs to the people of the Lichadian Temple, if this clue can find the flower thief, accept the interrogation, but this clue is not helpful to find the flower thief, more than one thing is better than one less thing, simply do not say.
In the afternoon, when the south wind returned to the mountain, at this time other new Taoists were listening to the scriptures and attending classes, and there was still an hour before eating, remembering that he had not gone to the secular hall to see the old people in recent days, the south wind took the path to the west slope.
Sending the tea to the ministry of Sun, Nanfeng went to the backyard and gave the dates to the busy sister-in-law and aunt under the stove.
The coachmen who had been driving with him were now in the backyard stables to watch the donkeys and horses breed, and Nanfeng walked over to talk to everyone, and when everyone saw him coming, they greeted him warmly.
After he entered the Tao, the crooked mouth of the same room took over from him as a coachman, this person's brain is not very bright, Nanfeng likes to tease him very much, "Crooked mouth, what are you looking at?"
"With a donkey. He tilted his mouth and smirked.
"Hahahaha, isn't it good-looking?" asked Nanfeng with a smile.
Crooked mouth shook his head again and again, "It's cold, and the female donkey can't have sex." ”
"You go up and help. "The south wind teased him.
"What the hell is this?" Crooked Mouth, knowing that Nanfeng was teasing him, tilted his head and pouted.
"Mules in autumn are easy to raise, and this is usually the time of year, but this year it was too cold. Another coachman said that the dung carts of Taiqingzong are all driving mules, and the mules have strength, and they are not in estrus, and they will not bark day and night like donkeys and horses.
"Why can't you get it yet?" the crooked mouth is more anxious than the stallion.
"I have a way, wait. Nanfeng turned and ran towards the kitchen, carried half a bucket of warm water, took out the porcelain bottle and was about to pour the medicinal powder into it, it was useless for him to keep this thing, it was still a disaster, so he simply helped the donkey for fun.
"Nanfeng, what are you holding in your hand?!" someone behind him snatched his porcelain vase.
When Nanfeng heard the sound and turned around, he saw that it was Sun Shishi who took away his porcelain vase.
"This, this ......" Nanfeng was very nervous, and Sun also knew rough pharmacology, if he found out that this was spring poison, he was afraid that he would not be able to wash it away even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Sun Ministry put the medicine bottle to his nose and sniffed it, then returned the porcelain bottle to him, "You want to drink the donkey with angelica powder?"
"Angelica powder?"
