57. Chapter 57
Bo Xiling resisted in her heart, and her face was hesitant. Wei Jin saw her hesitation, it was rare for Her Majesty the Empress to be so 'swallowing her anger' today, how could she not slaughter well.
The raised right leg twitched violently, Wei Jin staggered, and fell into Bo Xiling's arms in a daze, his brows furrowed and painful. "You left me alone in the woods that day, and I waited for you to turn back, but"
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it! I promised you that it would be"
Wei Jinyi smiled triumphantly in Bo Xiling's arms, Bo Xiling attached to her ear, and said faintly, "Wei Jinyi, your acting skills are ten times better than your uncle!" โ
Bo Xi's autumn came very early, summer just appeared, and autumn followed. Therefore, the short heat of summer did not bother Wei Jinyi, who is a modern person. After coming to Bo Xi for more than half a year, it seems that he has completely integrated into the life here, after all, the loved ones are here. It's just that gradually there is an estrangement between the two and there is a quarrel. Wei Jinyi felt a little tired, but this qiฤ was his own willing choice, wasn't it?
Wei Jinyi fell into his own contemplation, and was suddenly startled by Xuanyuan Tian's voice!
"Yo, Xiao Wei, you're in good spirits today!" As soon as Xuanyuan Tian was in the morning, he saw Wei Jinyi strolling in the garden. "I heard that Ling'er spent the night in your room last night! No wonder you recover so fast! Yesterday I looked like I had nothing to do, but today I can wander around! Love is wonderful, wonderful! โ
"Dr. Zhuge has always refused to tell me the truth, and I don't know if I'm crippled, I can only practice more every day, even if there are bad results, maybe there will be a turnaround!"
"Yes, if you are disabled, how can you take care of Ling'er? But why don't you go back to the palace with Ling'er? The doctor is more skilled."
"If I go back to the palace, I won't be able to find out about the assassination, I have a hunch that this assassination will definitely have nothing to do with Nan Keyyin!"
"You can't talk nonsense about this, Nan Keyyin is the queen of Nan Key, and it is a big crime to slander her! And it would also cause a war between the two countries. Bo Xi and Nan Key have been united for so long, and if there is an incident at this time, Che Fei will take advantage of the void! โ
"Of course I found enough evidence, it's just speculation now." Wei Jin was very hesitant on the side, but he was very sure of his thoughts in his heart, this matter was definitely related to Nan Keyyin! It's just that the Prime Minister and Her Majesty the Empress are so protective of Nan Keyyin, I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as I thought!
"By the way, Lao Xuan, where are the corpses of those assassins now?"
"Hehe, I got it for you, it's in this Xuanyuan Mansion, I'll ask Ling'er to hand over this matter to me."
"Righteous enough, Lao Xuan, next time I invite you to eat something delicious!"
"Okay!"
Bo Xiling, who had left the early dynasty, paced back and forth in the imperial garden, followed by Bo Ximo, who had fought with the assassins that day, "Bo Ximo, do you say that this assassination is related to Nan Keyyin?" Bo Xiling thought that there were many ways to chant in the south, but he would not be able to make such a heavy hand, but after yesterday's drugging, he faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart.
"Master, it's really strange that this Queen of the South Key suddenly appeared to save you! But his subordinates had fought with those assassins, and the kung fu they used was not Nankey's kung fu at all, it was indeed Bo Xi's martial arts! โ
"That's right, it's for this reason that I didn't take Nan Keyyin into account before, this group of assassins is definitely a native of Bo Xi!"
"Could it be that Queen Nankey bought them with money?"
"Do you know the rules of the way of assassins, they only obey the orders of those they respect, Nan Key is a woman, if you want to command this group of assassins with high martial arts, I'm afraid it's not so easy!"
"Who could that be?"
Bo Xiling frowned, his eyes were firmly fixed on the gravel on the rockery, the smoky thoughts suddenly penetrated a glimmer of light, and a name flashed through Bo Xiling's mind, and it was really his style, "Mu Yifeng, why didn't I think of it?" โ
"General Mu Yi? It's him? โ
"Yes, it's him, in Bo Xi, only he has such a great ability to recruit such a large group of assassins! Bo Ximo, you go check on him and see what he's been busy with lately! and sent a team of shadow guards to guard Wei Jinyi. He didn't succeed in killing Wei Jinyi last time, so he will definitely find a chance! โ
"Yes, master!"
"Fei'er, if you're afraid, don't follow me in!" Wei Jin pushed open the door of the corpse and looked worriedly at Ouyang Fei'er who was supporting him.
"Sister Wei, you healed my face and saved my life, Fei'er has to do something to repay you, let Fei'er accompany you in!"
"Okay, but if you can't take it anymore, be sure to tell me!"
"Hmm!" Ouyang Fei'er carefully helped Wei Jinyi, her nose was full of the stench of the corpse's decay, and she was sick to her stomach, although these corpses had been treated and retained as much as possible, but this ancient technology was definitely not as good as the modern one, and it was stored for more than a month, and it was still rotten and smelly.
Wei Jinyi looked at these corpses whose faces were no longer distinguishable, calmed down, and began his journey to find clues.
I heard Lao Xuan say that some assassins committed suicide by taking poison, so start here. Wei Jinyi carefully examined the assassins who had no knife wounds on their bodies. They were found with their teeth closed and their fists clenched, apparently poisoned. Then in ancient times, the commonly used poison was crane top red, see blood to seal the throat.
They also have a characteristic, the palms of their hands are around the abdomen, if it is unbearable after taking poison, it is very likely to make this action, then the scope of this โกโก is reduced! And their lips are not blackened, and their nails are the same, so there is only one truth! That's the Broken Intestine Grass!
"Broken intestine grass? How could Sister Wei be so sure of the Broken Intestine Grass? โ
"When I was in the organization before, I studied this broken gut grass. At that time, I didn't know where the big boss got a few criminals who had committed the death penalty, so I tested them for poison, and I also wrote a summary of their posthumous reports! So, it's definitely the broken intestine grass! โ
"Broken intestine grass? I've only seen it in ancient books, but I've never heard of it in reality! โ
"So, in Boxi, it's not common to break the intestines?"
"Yes."
"That's good, this clue is still useful!" The person who administers poison must have outstanding talents in some field, such as botany!
"Huh? This person seems to have something on his body, Fei'er, you don't need to help me, I can just use crutches! As soon as Wei Jin leaned down, a small thorn that was almost integrated with the black clothes was pulled out by her. In front of him, he looked intently for a while, and found other thorns on him one after another.
Ghost needle grass! This is the seed of the ghost needle!
Wei Jinyi seemed to have found some ideas, his eyebrows were overjoyed, and his eyes were more confident. "Fei'er, you help me find out if there are small thorns and leaves stuck to the clothes and soles of these assassins!"
"Good!"
For the first time, Wei Jinyi was thrilled to discover that his botanical talents were actually at work on such an occasion.
Listening to Wei Jinyi's instructions, Ouyang Fei'er began to search carefully. Although she was dizzy from being smoked by these corpses, Ouyang Fei'er still endured it. "Sister Wei, you see that the soles of this person's shoes seem to be stained with some plants, and they are still green.
"It's still green, let me see!" Wei Jinyi endured the pain in his leg, leaned on crutches, came to Ouyang Fei'er's side, leaned down, and stared intently at the plant that was stuck to the side of the assassin's shoe. Reaching out and gently removing it, he looked at the air roots on the small leaf. Propagating with leaves, no soil required, isn't this little monster a type of succulent!
"Fei'er, this is the leaf of the immortal bird, we are one step closer to the truth!"
Wei Jinyi and Ouyang Fei'er stayed in this morgue for a day, without a drop of water, and gradually became familiar with the smell of corpses, perhaps they had already lost their sense of taste from this corpse. In the confined space, both of them were soaked with sweat, and the long-term use of their eyes also made their eyes very dry. Wei Jinyi didn't know why he was working so hard, Bo Xiling didn't care about it, even if he found out the truth, what was the point! Nan Keyyin is the king of Nan Key, and Bo Xi's ally, even if he confirms that she did it, he can't punish her!
Such a thought stayed in Wei Jinyi's mind for only three seconds before being thrown out of her mind, when she was a child in an orphanage, the dean taught her to be bullied once, and she endured it. If she is bullied for the second time, she will return a tooth for a tooth and let her look for teeth all over the ground! Yes, you can't sit still, you have to take the initiative!
"Fei'er, I'll collect the mud from the soles of this man's shoes, and let's go out."
"Okay, Sister Wei, with these mud and these plants, can you really find the mastermind behind the scenes?"
"Actually, I don't know, but I have to give it a try anyway, and I can't let this mastermind live too freely!"
Ghost needle grass, dogtooth root, immortal birds, coriander, centella asiatica, red soil, and river sand Wei Jin pursed his lips and racked his brains to connect these hard-won clues. If you want to get more accurate clues, you have to go back to the scene of the crime, and maybe the whole forest will have to be investigated! What a huge project! My leg injury is still unknown, if you have to trek through mountains and rivers, it is not easy to think about it!
Wei Jinyi was immersed in his own thoughts, not noticing the approaching footsteps.
"What do you think, so fascinated!" Bo Xiling leaned on his shoulders and asked softly.
The sudden heat in his ears made Wei Jin shiver coldly, and then his face turned red. It's just that this investigation was originally intended to be hidden from Bo Xiling, but now that it has been broken by her, Wei Jinyi's face is a little more evasive and hesitant.
As soon as Bo Xiling raised his eyes, he saw the mess on the table, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be some dirt chips and withered grass! Bo Xiling looked at Wei Jinyi with an inquiring gaze, but found her dodging eyes. Taking a deep breath, Bo Xiling smelled an unusual smell floating in this room!
As soon as Wei Jin came out of the morgue, he began to sort out these clues, so he had time to bathe and change clothes in the future, and the smell of corpses on his body had not yet dissipated.
Oh no, it's going to be discovered!
