Chapter 333: Clue Found
As soon as they entered the tomb, the two of them felt a trace of coldness, Su Qiubai frowned, and said, "Is it usually so cold here?" ”
Anya rubbed her arms and shook her head, "Although the temperature here has always been cooler than outside, it is not as cold as it is now, which is strange." ”
Su Qiubai nodded, did not speak, but looked around.
Anya's master is the seventeenth head of the Qingyang faction, and the history of this sect is also long. In this large burial chamber, there are more than 20 coffins parked, 17 of which are closed, the blue-gray stone coffins are tightly sealed, and they are neatly placed on the ground in rows, and the other few sentences that have not yet sealed the coffins are prepared for the future masters.
Su Qiubai didn't speak, stood still by the side of one of the sealed coffins, and asked Anya, "Is this your master's coffin?" ”
Anya nodded in surprise and said, "How do you know?" ”
There was no information on the coffins that identified the people inside, and Anya didn't tell him, how did he know?
Su Qiubai looked around the stone coffin and said, "The yin qi around this coffin has not dispersed, it should be because the soul has not left, and this is also the reason why this place is extremely cold. ”
"The soul hasn't left yet......" Anya repeated in surprise, not knowing what it meant.
Su Qiubai nodded and said: "Generally speaking, after a person passes away, the soul will leave the body and die, and there are only two situations that refuse to leave, one is that he is forbidden by some spell and cannot be reborn, and the other is that he has great grievances or inaction during his lifetime, so that the soul cannot leave for a long time." Regardless of your master's situation, it proves that your master's death was not accidental. ”
When Anya heard that her master's soul was still here, her eyes immediately turned red, and she sobbed and said to the coffin, "Master...... The apprentice is not filial, and he can't always be by your side, so that you are victimized by traitors! I can't even stand this position so far, and I really don't live up to your expectations of me. If you have a spirit in heaven, tell me who harmed you, and even if I pay a price, I must help you avenge this! ”
Su Qiubai knew that she was sad, but she still couldn't help but say to her: "After a person dies, once the soul leaves the body, it will lose its memories of life, leaving only a few remaining fragments, so your master may not be able to give you any hints......
Anya was in a low mood at this time, and she couldn't listen to him, so she just knelt in front of her master's coffin and cried silently.
Su Qiubai didn't persuade her anything, just continued: "You can't do it after death, but it doesn't mean that you can't do it in life. If he had noticed the clue early on, what subtle hint might he have left you? I don't think he was killed in a daze, as for why he couldn't find out the murderer directly, most likely when he found out the truth, he was powerless, so he handed over this mystery to you to solve. ”
Hearing this, Anya finally stopped crying and asked expectantly, "Really?" ”
"I'm just guessing, but it's very likely that he will do this, otherwise if he doesn't have any doubts in his heart, he may not really pass over your so many senior brothers and pass on to you directly." Su Qiubai replied truthfully.
Anya lowered her head and thought about it carefully, thinking that her master was not such a foolish person, if someone really harmed him, he would not be able to detect it until he died.
"You're right, I was negligent before! I hadn't thought of looking into Master's bedroom, but if he wanted to leave me a clue, the most likely place would be his room! Without further ado, let's go to his bedroom now! Anya had a new direction of investigation at this time, and couldn't wait to pull Su Qiubai to the master's bedroom.
On the way, Anya explained to Su Qiubai: "The bedrooms of the previous heads are fixed, and the new head can only move in three months after the death of the previous head, and now there are not many days left before the three months, fortunately you came in time, otherwise if Senior Brother Zhong lives in, we won't be able to find any clues!" ”
Su Qiubai nodded and said, "But don't get your hopes up, it's just a guess after all." ”
Today's head bedroom is still unoccupied, so there are no disciples guarding it, so the two of them did not encounter any obstacles this time.
As soon as she pushed the door in, Anya's mood became heavy again, this room was full of her memories of her master, seeing a table and chair here would arouse her infinite sadness, and then turn into hatred for the person who harmed her master, and at this time her mood to find out the real murderer was even stronger.
The two searched around the house, but found no useful clues.
"After the master passed away, this house should have been cleaned up, most of his old man's things have been cleared, and maybe there are no clues left by him." Anya said with a slight disappointment.
Su Qiubai didn't think so: "Since he wants to leave clues for you, naturally he won't stay in such a light place that people can discover, we just took a general look at what was on the surface, and now let's look carefully again to see if we can find anything." ”
Anya nodded, feeling that she had been discouraged too early, and suddenly regained some confidence and searched the house more carefully.
The two of them didn't even let go of all kinds of horns this time, and finally Anya found something that seemed useful.
It was a piece of porcelain, and it looked like a rice bowl or something, but since there was only one piece, it was hard to tell what it was. She found the shard in the gap between the back of the bed and the wall, because she reached for it directly, and there was a small cut on her finger.
"Are your hands alright?" Su Qiubai didn't look at the fragments, and first cared about Anya's hand.
Anya looked at the wound, then shook her head and said, "It's just a very shallow wound, it's fine." But how could this debris end up in the back of the bed? Even if something was broken, it shouldn't be there. ”
Su Qiubai had time to take a closer look at the fragment, and he couldn't see anything wrong with his eyes, so he sniffed it under his nose again, and his face suddenly changed, in order to confirm his conjecture, he even licked the fragment with his tongue, and immediately spit it out with a "phew", and hurriedly grabbed Anya's hand and stared at her wound carefully.
Anya saw his solemn expression, and knew that this fragment was probably not an ordinary porcelain fragment, so she asked, "What's wrong, is there any problem?" ”
Su Qiubai didn't answer her, but grabbed her fingers and pinched and rubbed them, and after a while asked, "How do your fingers feel?" ”
Anya was asked strangely by him, so she paid attention to her fingers and felt them, then her face changed slightly, and said: "The wound is a little itchy, and the fingers also feel numb, what's going on?" Is it ......?"
Without waiting for Anya to finish speaking, Su Qiubai put her finger into her mouth and sucked it gently, in addition to sucking with her mouth, he also injected spiritual power into her wound, Anya felt a tingling warmth on her fingers, and her face immediately turned red. Although she knew that he was doing this to detoxify herself, she still couldn't help but think crankily, and wanted to withdraw her hand, but she was afraid of distracting his kindness.
After a while, after Su Qiubai sucked out all the toxins in Anya's body, he spit out a mouthful of blood on the ground before saying: "I was really careless just now, fortunately, there are not many toxins on this fragment, and I noticed it in time, otherwise this toxin will be in the body for a long time, and your body will inevitably be damaged." ”
Anya tried to dissipate the cranky thoughts in her mind, and Zhengse said, "What poison is so powerful? Do you mean that someone poisoned Master and he found out, so he hid such a piece of the piece as a clue for me? But I don't understand, with Master's cultivation, the food has been poisoned, and there is no reason why I can't detect it. ”
Su Qiubai carefully looked at the fragments in his hand and said, "Ordinary poison. The medicine naturally can't hide from his eyes, but this is poisonous. Medicine is no ordinary commodity. This poison is called honey fragrance and tendon powder, which is characterized by a strong honey fragrance and sweet taste, which is difficult to detect in desserts and other foods. It is a chronic poison. medicine, but the cycle of poisoning is not long, three to five doses can kill people. The poisoned person will not notice anything at first, but by the time they realize it is too late. The meridians of his whole body will be covered with toxin, and at that time, even those who have advanced cultivation will not be able to expel this toxin, so they can only wait for themselves to slowly lose their ability to move, until their whole body is paralyzed, and they cannot breathe and die. And this poison. The most powerful thing about medicine is that it has no antidote. ”
Anya was surprised at first, but then it turned to rage, her hands clenched into fists, and her whole body trembled with anger.
"Who is so vicious! My master is a kind-hearted person, many of the disciples in the sect are orphans he rescued, he is very kind to everyone on weekdays, and he is never harsh on his disciples. Such a person, they can actually do this to him ruthlessly! If I find out who this person is, even if I cut him with a thousand knives, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart! Anya said through gritted teeth.
Su Qiubai hurriedly patted her on the back and comforted: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you find out who this person is." Poisoning is the most despicable act of a righteous man and a gentleman, and this person's intentions are so vicious that even the master dares to do this, and he really deserves to die. The only thing I can't figure out is that it's such a rare poison. Medicine, how did a person in a sect like the Qingyang Sect, who has a deep escape from the world, get it? ”
Anya was already carried away by anger at this time, she could hardly think rationally, and her mind was also in chaos, thinking only about how to punish the murderer after he found out.
