Chapter 443: Charcoal Basin

"Uncle Liu, forget it, let's not talk darkly, today's day is good, there are also a group of newcomers from Yangliu Alley, Uncle Liu, why don't you go over to patrol and patrol? I've got a good introduction here......"

Zou Youheng took a step closer and whispered behind the warden's ear.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Ye Xiaoyu couldn't help frowning, this Zou Youheng seemed to have suddenly become the same gentleman when they first met.

"Hahaha...... The eldest young master is really good at laughing......"

The warden began to laugh when he heard this.

"Today's day is indeed good, young master, are you in the wrong place? There are no willows here. ”

"Alas. It's hard to put into words. ”

Zou Youheng instantly looked bitter.

"What's the matter, what made the eldest young master so unhappy, tell Uncle Liu, I will go and give you a head no matter what!"

The warden looked at Zou Youheng and said, his eyes were full of love for a joke.

"It's not that Yingge who has trouble with me."

Zou Youheng muttered.

"Yingge? Oooooooo......oo It's not a newcomer, this kind of thing, the main thing is to pay attention to the constant change. ”

The warden smiled obscenely.

"Oh, by the way, Uncle Liu, I heard something happened here?"

As if he suddenly remembered something, Zou Youheng suddenly raised his head and asked.

"The eldest young master's news is quite well-informed? Something did happen. ”

I didn't know what Zou Youheng wanted to do, so the warden answered truthfully.

"Wow, this is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. Can I go in and have a look? ”

Zou Youheng's eyes, which had been blank, suddenly lit up.

"It's not a good thing, and there's nothing to see in it."

The warden declined.

"Oh, Uncle Liu, I've never been to the prison before, so let me go in and have a look. If you don't say it, I won't say it, how will my father know? ”

Zou Youheng insisted.

"Okay, okay, since the eldest young master wants to go in, then no matter how much risk I take, I will meet your requirements. Actually, there's really nothing to see here, it's much worse than that willow alley, I guess you'll want to come out as soon as you enter. ”

The warden thought for a moment. So he agreed.

Since Zou Youheng, this idiot wants to go in. Then he agreed, so that when Zou Yu asked again, he could let this swinger brother block himself.

"Thank you, Uncle Liu."

Zou Youheng said. He swaggered in.

Ye Xiaoyu and Wang Huaiqing, dressed as small maids. also silently followed him and walked inside.

"So you're like this in front of outsiders."

Walk to no man's land. Ye Xiaoyu whispered with a smile.

"What do you call it like this? Is that bad? ”

Zou Youheng retorted angrily.

It is precisely because of this appearance that everyone knows that he is a prodigal who is good for nothing and only knows how to linger in the land of fireworks restaurants. Since he was a child, he avoided a lot of unnecessary troubles.

"The men's prison is right ahead."

Wang Huaiqing pointed to a place not far away and said.

Because the jailers and guards all knew Zou Youheng, the journey was unexpectedly smooth. And to Zou Youheng's surprise, the cell boss was not there today.

"Young Master, your lord has an order, you can't go in here."

Walking to the three cells where the accident occurred, Zou Youheng was about to push open the cell door, when three or four jailers quickly ran next to him to stop him.

"Get out of the way! I'll take care of something. ”

Zou Youheng ignored the group of jailers and directly pushed the door and walked in.

After all, it was the young master of the prefect, and this group of jailers didn't dare to act rashly, just stood there and looked at Zou Youheng.

Ye Xiaoyu and Wang Huaiqing also walked in with the vigilance of the surrounding jailers.

There was nothing unusual in the cell, it was exactly the same as the prison where Ye Xiaoyu had been in Yuejing before, it was dark and damp, the floor was covered with straw, there was only one bunk in the main cell, and a small window high up in the wall was full of gloomy light.

Looking at this scene in front of her, Ye Xiaoyu suddenly seemed to have returned to that year's time. In fact, it would be nice if she did go back, at least for that time, she could have thought about nothing and wrapped herself in the gloom of the prison.

"What is this?"

Suddenly, Zou Youheng pointed to a brazier in the corner of the cell and asked the jailer standing outside.

"Young Master Hui, it's been cold recently, in order to prevent the prisoners from freezing, according to the warden's instructions, we have added a charcoal basin to each cell."

A jailer said.

"Every cell has been added?"

Zou Youheng confirmed again.

"Yes."

The jailer replied in the affirmative.

"You go and bring me a pot of water, I suddenly want to sit here."

Zou Youheng said and walked out of the cell.

"Forget it, I'm not used to drinking your water here, so let's go back and get me a pot of tea. Go right now. ”

After coming out, Zou Youheng turned his head and said to Ye Xiaoyu and Wang Huaiqing, who were following behind.

Maybe the problem will be with the charcoal basin, in order to prevent these people from transferring the charcoal basin, he must guard here, let the two of them go back and let Zou Yu send someone to take it away.

"Remember, I'm going to my dad to get it, and his tea is better."

Zou Youheng explained again.

Seeing the charcoal pot, Ye Xiaoyu should be able to understand what he meant.

Ye Xiaoyu really understood what he meant, she also noticed the charcoal basin in the cell just now, according to the toxin transmission method of the Thousand Soul Flower, put its powder in the charcoal basin, and burn it with the help of charcoal fire, it can completely make people fall into a coma without knowing it. But what Ye Xiaoyu doesn't understand is how the murderer made these people die violently overnight? There is no way to achieve such an effect by relying entirely on the Thousand Soul Flower.

"Did you notice anything unusual?"

After walking out of the prison, Wang Huaiqing asked.

"There are some anomalies, but there is something missing. Let's go to Master Zou first and ask him to send someone to get something from the prison. ”

Ye Xiaoyu replied.

"Take something? Is it a charcoal basin? ”

Wang Huaiqing suddenly remembered the charcoal basins placed in the corner of the cell.

"Hmm. Maybe the poison is hidden there. ”

Ye Xiaoyu said lightly.

Pity. Sunny wasn't here, otherwise he would have known if there was any poison in the charcoal basin.

The gloomy and damp weather made the whole city look moldy.

In the woods outside the city, every tree was wet as if it could squeeze out water. The damp dead leaves fell to the ground, and stepping on them was like walking in a swamp.

Li Yan was walking in this forest at this time, in order to avoid people's eyes, he asked Ah Qing to park the carriage at the city gate, such a long distance, for him, a scholar who was powerless. It's really too long and too hard to walk. Thankfully. Finally reached the destination.

The mysterious masked man was already waiting there, and Li Yan saw his stiff back from a distance.

Does this man not know that his back is to others? Is it the most dangerous state?

"Your Excellency."

Li Yan stepped forward. Respectfully. Although the man still had his back to him.

"How's it going?"

A hoarse voice came.

This man took off his mask, and he was definitely a rough man with a scar on his face.

Li Yan thought silently in his heart.

"It's done, ten people died overnight."

"Cleaned up?"

The masked man asked again.

Vestige?

Li Yan missed a beat in his heart.

He mixed the five stone powder into the powder of the Thousand Soul Flower. Then they put this into the charcoal basin of the cell, and as the charcoal fire burned, the gods did not know it. But now when he was asked like this, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask these people to replace the charcoal basin.

"Back to my lord, it's all cleaned up, and nothing is left."

Li Yan said.

That thing has long since disappeared with the burning of the charcoal fire, right?

"Another thing, find out the daily travel time of Zhou Yifu and Lin Wushou."

The masked man gives the command.

"Okay sir, no problem."

Li Yan responded quickly.

Zhou Yifu and Lin Wushou are both rich people in Rongzhou City, and they are particularly rich people. The two of them are rich, but the sons of the two families are not particularly competitive, and it is indeed a bit difficult to mix with Zou Youheng's kid all day long, and if they want to get out.

What are you going to do if you want information about these two people?

However, he has always only been on orders, and he doesn't need to think too much.

*

"How? Is there a result? ”

In the courtyard of the yamen, seeing Zou Youheng coming out, Ye Xiaoyu, who was waiting outside, asked.

According to the plan, they had asked Zou Yu to send someone to bring back all the charcoal basins in the men's prison, and they originally planned to compare them, but they found several people from several medicine families in the city to come and check them repeatedly, but they still did not come to a conclusion.

Just now, another person known as a "master of drug production" went in, so as soon as he saw Zou Youheng coming out of it, Ye Xiaoyu hurriedly asked.

"It's just that we found some white powder in the three charcoal basins we marked, but whether it's charcoal burned ashes or something else, he can't figure out just now."

Zou Youheng sat down on the stone bench with a tired face.

"Xiaoyu, the poison you said will leave a white powder after it is burned?"

Wang Huaiqing asked.

It's a bit ashamed to say that although he has been running a medicinal herb shop for many years, he really doesn't know anything about this strange thing.

"I don't know, I just know that it's a white powder that burns on a fire, and the smoke that comes out can poison people and fall into a coma."

Ye Xiaoyu replied truthfully.

Back then, because of the sunny day, she didn't pay attention to what would be left after the Thousand Soul Flowers burned out.

"What you know, why can't these people who claim to be masters of medicine find out, it's like eating."

Zou Youheng began to be a little irritable.

The news of the dead people in the prison was about to be announced, but there was no progress here, so how could he calm down.

When Zou Yu sent people to the prison just now, he searched all the three cells from the inside out, and even the straw on the ground was lifted and taken away for inspection, but whether it was a charcoal basin or straw, or anything else, nothing could be found, and nothing could be found.
