The fragrant and calming benzoin was extinguished by Shui Yue with tea, and the doors and windows were wide open, and the aroma lingering in the house quickly dispersed, until there was no longer a trace of aroma in the house, Rong Yuan signaled to Moyu that they could close the doors and windows again, but after a while, the room that was still warm as spring just now was already cold, and the hands and feet of Moyu and the others were cold.

"Imperial Doctor Xu, can you say it now?" Ling Ruo stared at Rong Yuan and asked slowly, his expression solemn.

Rong Yuan nodded solemnly and said: "Listening to what Miss Moyu said, it seems that everyone sees different ghosts, which is obviously inconsistent with common sense, even if there are real ghosts, what they see at the same time and place should be the same, why is it diametrically opposite, so Wei Chen wondered if there was another hidden meaning in this." Remembering that Mo Yu once said that he smelled a burst of fragrance before seeing a ghost, Wei Chen remembered an account he saw in a medical book before, and it was rumored that there was an ecstasy incense in ancient times, which could make people hallucinate, and this hallucination was the ghost in the mouth of the world! Weichen thought this was nonsense, even if there was really this incense, it had long been lost, but he didn't expect it to exist in this world. ”

"Are you saying that the ghosts I and Mo Yu saw were all hallucinations created by ecstasy incense?" Shi Cai was blown by the cold wind, and Ling Ruo's heavy mind regained a trace of clarity.

"If Weichen's prediction is correct, Ling Fujin should have already started burning incense before he saw the hell." Seeing Ling Ruo nodding, he continued, "So Weichen mixed cloves, Huo incense, and agarwood incense together for Mo Yu to smell, these flavors are the spices that must be used to make ecstasy incense, and they are really similar to them, so Weichen can conclude that someone must have secretly mixed a small amount of ecstasy incense in benzoin, as long as the incense is burned, this ecstasy incense will unconsciously make Fu Jin hallucinate, thinking that there are unjust ghosts haunted and it is difficult to sleep and eat." There was a rare hatred between his words, although this ecstasy incense could not kill people, but if it continued like this, even if he did not die, he would only have half a life left.

Shui Xiu thought about it and still felt a little unreasonable, "Since it is mixed in benzoin, why is it that only the master and Moyu have hallucinations, and a few of us have nothing to do." ”

"Because you didn't stay in the house all the time, I said that the ecstasy incense mixed with benzoin is a small amount, and a short period of time is not enough to make people hallucinate, and the Moyu girl only claimed to have seen ghosts when she was with the night, but Ling Fujin stayed in the house for a long time, and when she rarely went out, she inhaled the most ecstasy incense." He glanced at Ling Ruo and said, "Now that the room is ventilated and the residual fragrance has been removed, does Fu Jin feel better?" ”

Ling Ruo tried to close her eyes, and sure enough, there was no ghost in front of her, and she was suddenly happy in her heart, and was about to speak, when suddenly the white-clothed ghost appeared again, and her face was hideous, and she stretched out her hands and grabbed her, so frightened that she opened her eyes suddenly, stroked her palpitating chest and gasped, "Ghost ...... Ghost...... It's still in ...... It's still there! ”

Rong Yuan, who thought he was guessing that he was not far from ten, was shocked when he heard her say this, and suddenly said, "You can still see it?" ”

Ling Ruo nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, it hasn't disappeared, it's still here." Imperial Doctor Xu, could it be that you guessed wrong, not because of the ecstasy incense. ”

"Impossible!" Rong Yuan categorically rejected her conjecture, walked quickly to the Boshan furnace, lifted the lid of the furnace and took out the water-soaked spices and rolled them carefully, according to the medical book, there is a vital spice in the ecstasy incense: poppy, but in this benzoin he did not find any trace of the poppy, is it really his guess wrong, it has nothing to do with the ecstasy incense? But what would it be if it wasn't Ecstasy?

Just when he was wondering, Li Wei struggled to bring in a large basket of silver charcoal, and Mo Yu hurriedly went over to put the charcoal basket in the corner, "I thought you had been going for so long, it turned out that you were going to get the silver charcoal, isn't there a lot of this silver charcoal, why are you in such a hurry to get it?" ”

Li Wei patted the ash on his hand with a hint of smugness and said: "You don't understand this, don't look at the silver charcoal now, after a while, all the houses and courtyards will start to burn charcoal for fire, and I will be nervous. ”

"Hey, Imperial Doctor Xu is also here, the servant has asked you to say goodbye." Li Wei was about to say goodbye to Ling Ruo, but when he found that Rong Yuan was also there, he hurriedly called a thousand children, and then carefully took out a triangular yellow talisman from his arms, "Master, this is the peace talisman that the slave just took advantage of to go to Wanshou Temple to ask for, this will definitely be spiritual, you take it with you, and ensure that none of those ghosts dare to approach you." ”

Wanshou Temple is a royal temple, there are twenty miles back and forth from here, and it is hard to imagine the hard work of running back and forth in half a day. In fact, for the sake of the haunting, Moyu and the others have gone to many temples and begged for many peace charms, but none of them are useless. Although Zhilu Dao is useless, but this is Li Wei's heart, Ling Ruo still accepted it with a smile, and just about to speak, Li Wei suddenly sniffed a few times, turned his gaze to the wrong gold thread silver incense burner that had been extinguished, and said with relief: "No wonder the fragrance in the house has faded so much, it turns out that the incense is gone, why don't you add incense to the master." ”

"What did you say?" Rong Yuan was taken aback, grabbed Li Wei's hand and asked urgently, "Is there still a fragrance in this room?" Not only him, Ling Ruo and the others were all surprised, when the doors and windows were opened, it was clear that all the fragrance had been blown away, and the benzoin had also been extinguished, how could there be incense in the house?

Li Wei nodded truthfully, isn't it normal for the house where the incense has been burned to linger with incense, why is Imperial Doctor Xu so excited.

He didn't understand the reason when he just came back, but Rong Yuan, who was a little depressed because he couldn't find any trace of the ecstasy incense in the benzoin, was a big lifter, maybe he guessed correctly, but he just found the wrong place. When he stood outside for a while and then entered the house, he really smelled the aroma that Li Wei said, it was very light, because they had been in the same environment for a long time, their noses had lost their sensitivity, and they didn't find the fragrance coming out of nowhere.

In order to find out where this fragrance came from, Rong Yuan carefully inspected everything in the house, and found nothing suspicious, but it was really strange, could this fragrance appear out of thin air?

Seeing Rong Yuan standing there at a loss, Ling Ruo thought for a moment and motioned for Mo Yu to help him to the window, took a few deep breaths of cold and cold air, and then closed the window again, the originally faint aroma became clear and audible at this moment, closed his eyes and focused all his perception on the tip of his nose, trying to distinguish the intensity of the aroma, believing that as long as he found the strongest part of the fragrance, he would be equivalent to finding the source.

In the silence of the room, the soft-soled embroidered shoes fell step by step on the smooth and flat gold bricks, and when he reached the middle, Ling Ruo suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes fell on the steaming charcoal basin not far away, and said coldly: "This is here, this is the place where the fragrance is the strongest." ”

When Rong Yuan heard this, he immediately picked up a piece of silver charcoal that burned red and hot from the charcoal basin with iron tongs, and poured the tea that had never been touched with the other hand on it, only to hear the sound of "poof", and the white smoke billowed up, Rong Yuan carefully distinguished, and sure enough, he could smell a more obvious aroma from the white smoke than the one wafting in the house.

Yes, he had just checked almost everything in the house, but he had missed this charcoal basin, and the problem was precisely in the silver charcoal that was burning, and someone had mixed the powder of ecstasy incense in it, which was almost impossible to smell in ordinary times, but as soon as the charcoal was burned, the aroma would be stimulated, but the aroma was very light, and the incense happened to be lit in the house, so it was not noticed.
