Chapter 031: Spider Silk
The corpses of the mosquitoes on the ground are not very obvious, but in addition to the small mosquitoes, there are many strange-looking moth butterflies, and most of them are white, and the translucent wings are covered with paper patterns, and they look very similar to the previous butterflies except for their different colors and sizes.
Bai Yan had already let go of An Lan, at this time he was holding a round incense box in his hand, the hollow lid had been opened, and a wisp of white cigarette rose from the incense box, the white smoke was thin and long, like a soft streamer, twisting and turning along the breeze, drawing a soft arc, floating up nearly a zhang long, before slowly dispersing between heaven and earth.
An Lan raised her eyes and looked at him silently.
His expression was calm and focused, his face was slightly up, his gentle and calm gaze fell on the wisp of white smoke, the snow shone from the other side of his face, outlining the perfect lines of his side face, the wind rolled up his cloak, showing his slender figure even more, this moment was so quiet, so quiet that people couldn't bear to disturb it.
She thought of Jing Yan Gongzi, and remembered his figure standing on the terrace of the Fengzhu Hall under the starry night.
However, this silence lasted for a few breaths, and there was a cry in the backyard, which was not loud, but it was very noisy and chaotic, and many people could hear crying. These days, Jingfu has been deserted, and there is an irrelevant corpse parked in the Li Garden, which is already extremely unlucky, and now such intermittent cries are coming from the backyard, which is simply adding another layer of frost.
Jing Sanye led a few calm stewards, and hurriedly turned around and went to the backyard, responsible for pacifying the women and children and cleaning up the mess.
Jing Zhong looked at the corpses of those moths and butterflies on the ground, with a blue face, glaring at Chuan Lian, Hua Mama and the others: "You have attracted these things for no reason, don't you think that Jingfu is a place where you can do whatever you want!" ”
Mama Hua was not ashamed of her face, and her eyes even showed a little happiness: "Second Master Jing, don't worry, there is a more important matter now, and I need Lord Lu and a few gentlemen to check it out and make an assessment." ”
"What else is there to do!" Uncle Jing burst out, "If you don't give an explanation of these messy things, don't even think about doing anything today!" ”
Mama Hua sneered and glanced at Bai Yan: "Zhenxiang has such great ability, are you still afraid of this little mosquito." After she finished speaking, she deliberately glanced at Chuan Lian, paused, her eyes fell on Chuan Wu and Chuan Gu, and she mocked with a little dissatisfaction, "A few people are also very capable, so they gave the incense box to others." ”
Chuan Wu frowned slightly, but Chuan Gu smiled slightly: "Mama should solve her own affairs first, our affairs are not caring about Mama." ”
Mama Hua glanced at them, then turned her head to look at Lu Yong, and suddenly asked: "It has been more than ten days since Lord Lu took over the murder of the county lord, but how did you find out how our county lord died?" ”
Lu Yong was stunned for a moment, and only said after a while: "The government is investigating this matter." ”
Mama Hua sneered: "There are no wounds and no symptoms, people just died in such an unknown way, didn't Lord Lu suspect something." ”
Lu Yong paused before saying: "The government will investigate the specific case, and it is inconvenient for the official to discuss it with you." ”
Mama Hua shouted: "Don't you know that the incense realm of the great incense master can kill people invisibly. ”
Uncle Jing said angrily: "I have already made it clear when I was identifying the incense just now, you still don't give up, you really should be such a big basin and you can deduct it as you want!" ”
Mama Hua glanced at Uncle Jing: "Put your mouth faster, so as not to die in the future." ”
Uncle Jing's eyes almost bulged: "You-"
Jing Zhong grabbed him and shook his head slightly.
Mama Hua raised her chin slightly and looked at Bai Yan: "The Zhenxiang envoy knows me so well about southern Xinjiang, he must have heard of Xiang Gu." ”
Bai Yan slowly covered the incense box and said lightly: "The eggs laid by the fragrant butterfly, after hatching, are also raised with incense in a secret method, and when they are the strongest, hundreds of strong larvae are put together and they kill each other, and the last one that survives is the incense Gu." ”
"Sure enough, I know a lot." Mama Hua stared at him and asked, "So have you seen the Xiang Gu?" ”
Bai Yan raised his eyes: "Not really, but I think I will be able to see it soon." ”
Mama Hua pursed her lips, her face was very gloomy, she couldn't see through this man. The other party obviously looks so gentle, and his eyes are calm, without the slightest coldness and haze, but it seems to be too calm, but it makes people unable to see what kind of love is hidden inside. Such an unknown, to be honest, made her feel a little afraid inexplicably.
After a while, Mama Hua retracted her gaze, glanced at An Lan and the others, and then looked at Lu Yong: "Incense Gu is a fragrance realm specially used to deal with the Great Incense Master. ”
Liu Xuanji leaned against the pillar, still looking like she didn't care about herself, watching this scene with interest. When Mama Hua said the Xiang Gu, she didn't have the slightest look of surprise on her face, but Cui Feifei's eyes showed a little surprise, and Xie Lanhe only frowned slightly.
Lu Yong was stunned after hearing Mama Hua's words, but before he could speak, Mama Hua took out a small cinnabar cylinder from her sleeve and carefully held it in her hand to signal: "This is the incense Gu worm that the county lord gave her when he left southern Xinjiang, and the county lord carried it with him along the way." For you people in Chang'an, the incense realm of the great incense master has no root, no source and no solution, it cannot be grasped, it cannot be touched, and it cannot be sought, but for the incense Gu, the incense realm is its best nutrient! ”
Lu Yong frowned: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"What do you mean?" Mama Hua sneered, "Before our county lord died that day, a great incense master used the incense realm in front of her, and the county lord died in the incense realm, so you can't find out the reason anyway!" It's a pity that he didn't expect that our county lord was carrying a fragrant Gu by his side, and part of his incense at that time was torn off by the incense Gu! ”
"What!?" Lu Yong was surprised and suspicious, "What did you say?"
"Coincidentally, a few gentlemen also had a incense scene just now, and some of them were also torn off by the incense Gu." As she spoke, Mama Hua looked at An Lan and Cui Feifei, and smiled suspiciously, "It's the two of you, is there anyone else?" ”
An Lan didn't speak, Cui Feifei frowned, and the incense master who came with Cui Feifei today showed an angry look on his face, that is, he blocked in front of Cui Feifei, looked at Lu Yong and said: "Lord Lu just let this old woman talk nonsense again, what is Mr. Cui's identity, let her be so arranged!" ”
"What's the hurry?" Mama Hua rubbed the cinnabar cylinder in her hand, "Is it nonsense, you can go to Liyuan to have a look." ”
Jing Zhong couldn't help but speak: "What are you going to see in Liyuan?!" ”
Mama Hua said coldly: "Naturally, I looked at the incense realm that killed our county lord that day, which great incense master was from. ”
