"Ye Xiaoyu—"

The situation was urgent, and after hesitating for a while, Zou Youheng still spoke.

"Zou Youheng?"

The sudden sound made everyone in the room turn their heads to look at him.

"Why are you here?"

Ye Xiaoyu looked at him and asked.

"I have something I want to ask Wang Huaiqing for help."

Zou Youheng said straight to the point.

"Looking for me?"

This time Wang Huaiqing was surprised.

"Yes. There's an urgency. ”

He thought a lot about it before he came, and in this situation, he could only find Wang Huaiqing.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be in the medicinal herb business, have you ever heard of a medicine that makes people feel like they are asleep when eaten, and there are no signs of poisoning or scars all over the body, but in fact, those people are already dead."

The situation is urgent, Zou Youheng said directly in front of Ye Xiaoyu.

"It can't be that something happened to the rain chimney, right?"

Wang Huaiqing blurted out.

Ye Xiaoyu subconsciously glanced at him.

"Huh? You're thinking too much. ”

Zou Youheng laughed.

If it was Tian Yuyan, then things would not be so urgent. This matter is much stricter than Tian Yuyi's poisoning.

"Is something wrong?"

Putting the wooden box into the cabinet, Ye Xiaoyu asked.

Zou Youheng's expression today made her faintly feel that something big was happening.

"Yes, something very strict. I'm looking for a solution. It's a pity that I don't know anything about medicinal herbs, so I can only ask. ”

Zou Youheng said.

In fact, he came to Wang Huaiqing and he was helpless. Now that this matter has not been announced to the public, he can't go to other Langzhong in the city, in order to avoid suspicion, he can't go to the pharmacy in the city to ask, Lin Zucheng and Zhou Ming, who are similar to him, can't help at all. Thinking about it, only Wang Huaiqing knows some medical skills.

"This kind of poison, when I was in Yuejing, I seem to have heard Ye Langzhong mention it. But that's just the way it goes. The real thing has never been seen before. ”

Seeing that Zou Youheng's serious appearance didn't look like he was joking, Wang Huaiqing didn't dare to slack off.

"And the kind of poison they were talking about at the time was going to make people unconscious. It's like falling asleep. I didn't say whether it would kill people. ”

Like falling asleep?

Ye Xiaoyu felt that Zou Youheng's description was unusually familiar.

Thousand Soul Flowers?

Right. It's the Thousand Soul Flower.

She suddenly remembered that Quanxiu Village suddenly fell into a coma that year, and the village thought it was haunted, but later after careful investigation, she learned that someone was making trouble. And the so-called half-immortal medicine back then. It's the Thousand Soul Flower.

The reason why this matter was able to be found out back then, although Ling Yu also helped a lot, but the most important thing was because there was Qinglang, it was he who found out that the poison was a thousand soul flower, and found the antidote, and finally solved this matter.

But in this situation, even if the poison is a thousand soul flowers, and Qing Lang is not here, it seems that there is no way.

"Can you show me there?"

Although she was completely unsure in her heart, Ye Xiaoyu still said it.

"This ......"

Zou Youheng hesitated.

It's not that he doesn't believe Ye Xiaoyu, it's just that the scene is too infiltrating, and he is afraid that she will leave a shadow after watching it.

"I'm familiar with the symptoms you're described, but I'll have to see them for myself."

Ye Xiaoyu said.

"Let's go take a look, you don't have any other way anyway, do you?"

Wang Huaiqing also stood up and said.

Although I don't know what happened, looking at Zou Youheng's appearance, it is definitely not a trivial matter.

*

"It's the people here?"

Standing in front of the back door of the prison, looking at Zou Youheng who was taking out the key to open the door, Ye Xiaoyu's mouth opened wide in surprise.

Seeing Zou Youheng's solemn face just now, she thought that something had happened to Zou Yu or Wu, but she didn't expect it to be a prisoner in the prison.

Zou Youheng didn't answer, he just silently opened the back door of the prison, and then led Ye Xiaoyu and Wang Huaiqing into the inner room. In order to prevent internal thieves, the guards in front of the inner room sent Tie Yi's henchmen. In fact, it is needless to say that everyone knows about this matter, the prisoner in the prison died suddenly, but before that, there was no illness at all, this is definitely because of the thieves in the government, and everyone was suspicious before they found out who it was.

It is precisely because of this that Zou Yu asked Zou Youheng to take over this matter. Of course, he asked Zou Youheng to take over, and there were other considerations.

This inner chamber is set up in the innermost part of the prison, and when it was built, it was specially used to place prisoners in the prison who died or were injured in accidents, and invited Lang Zhong to heal or something. In the early years, when the laws of the Great Cause Kingdom were not so perfect, they were even used as a place to torture prisoners.

It is precisely because of such a not-so-good original intention and origin that even in broad daylight, there is always an inexplicable cold aura lingering in the inner room.

Seeing Zou Youheng, the two people at the door of the inner room automatically leaned to the side to make room for him to step forward to unlock the lock.

The lock was forged very thick, but in the case of a key, it was not difficult to open it, and with the crisp sound of the key turning, the door was pushed open by Zou Youheng.

“？！！”

Ye Xiaoyu felt that she had always been very bold, especially after being reborn, her boldness was even more amazing. But now the picture in the inner room still scares her a lot.

I saw that there were two rows of wooden beds inside, and each bed was covered with a white cloth, and judging from the shape of the white cloth covering, it should be that all people are lying on it.

In other words, there were two rows of people lying in this inner room, a total of ten people, and ten dead people!

This scene is far a hundred times more terrifying than the horror movies in the previous life.

Subconsciously turned his head to look at Wang Huaiqing who was standing next to him, Ye Xiaoyu found that although his face was not as exaggerated as himself, his face was also terrible pale.

"Come in."

Zou Youheng was very calm, looked at the two people standing at the door with frightened faces, and said with a smile.

He's not afraid. But I was already shocked when I came just now.

"This ...... All...... Both? ”

Ye Xiaoyu asked.

"Hmm. Almost overnight. No one knew what was going on, and it was as if the people were asleep. It's just that it's out of gas. ”

Zou Youheng said, casually lifting the white cloth on a bed beside him.

The light in the inner room was not very good, but with the help of the light of the oil lamp, Ye Xiaoyu could still see the appearance of the person under the white cloth. Zou Youheng was right, he did seem to be asleep. But this is only for a short time, and it won't be long before there will be corpse spots on this person's body, right?

"Xiaoyu, don't stand too close."

Seeing Ye Xiaoyu walking over to see, Wang Huaiqing said a little worriedly.

The cause of death of these people is unknown. If you still have poison on your body. How's that to be?

"It's okay, I'm covering my mouth."

Ye Xiaoyu turned her head and pointed to the handkerchief that was used as a mask to cover her mouth. However, remembering that she covered her face with a handkerchief that year and still did not escape the Thousand Soul Flower Toxin, she still subconsciously moved to the side.

Although this person is dead, his symptoms are indeed exactly the same as those of being poisoned by the Thousand Soul Flower. Lie down quietly and peacefully. It's like falling asleep and dreaming. Ye Xiaoyu also had this dream. It's really full of beauty, but if you indulge in it, you will never wake up.

Ye Xiaoyu remembered the description of the sunny day. The poison of this Thousand Soul Flower mainly enters the human body through the guò respiratory tract. Grind it into a powder and then put it in a fire to burn, and the smoke that comes out is poison.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoyu raised her head and asked.

"Is there any place in this prison where there is a fire?"

Thousand Soul Flowers mainly rely on smoke to spread toxins, but the smoke for no reason will definitely arouse suspicion. So there must be a carrier.

"Fire?"

Zou Youheng lowered his head and thought for a while.

In fact, before today, his father would never mention the matter of the Yamen to him, and he had hardly even been to the Yamen, let alone been imprisoned, so he couldn't answer Ye Xiaoyu's question.

"I really don't know about that."

"Why don't we go to the cell where these ten people are being held?"

Seeing Zou Youheng's expression, Ye Xiaoyu mentioned.

Ten people died in the prison overnight, even if Zou Youheng didn't say anything, Ye Xiaoyu could guess the severity of the matter. It is estimated that the news of the death has not yet been announced, and the people in the city still don't know, so in order not to arouse suspicion, he avoided Lang Zhonghe and the pharmacy in the city and came to ask Wang Huaiqing.

"This ......"

Zou Youheng was a little hesitant.

The key to the inner chamber is one thing, and the prison is another. If you want to go to the prison, you will definitely be discovered by the warden and the cell boss, and then there will be another tongue. And somehow, Zou Youheng felt that this matter had a lot to do with these two people. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if these two people didn't do anything extra, so many people died at once within their own boundaries, they still had to bear the responsibility of being negligent on duty, right?

But his father has not taken any measures against these two people until now, and if it were him, he would have arrested these two people and put them in prison a long time ago.

"Alright, let's go around to the front and go to the prison now. But when you get there, you'll have to look at me. ”

After thinking for a while, Zou Youheng nodded in agreement.

In the early years, in order to hide people's eyes, the inner chamber was not only built in the innermost part of the prison, but also had a separate side door next to it that could be directly entered and exited. Just now, Zou Youheng took Ye Xiaoyu and them on this road. But since he was going to prison, he didn't plan to go straight from here. Anyway, if you want to contact those two people, it is better to enter directly through the gate to be more open.

"Young Master, why are you here today?"

Sure enough, as soon as he walked to the gate of the prison, Zou Youheng had not even explained his intention to the guard at the door, and was seen by the warden who came out of it.

"Uncle Liu, it's such a coincidence, you are here today?"

Seeing that it was the warden, Zou Youheng grinned.

"I'm the warden, where can I be if I'm not here?"

The warden known as "Uncle Liu" looked at Zou Youheng with a stupid face and said. (To be continued......)
