Chapter 26: The Destruction of the Medicine King Valley
And Yu Fengcheng replied calmly and calmly, his eyes always looked at her, and he did not wander and flicker.
He is telling the truth, or, he has enough mental strength to look into people's eyes and lie without panicking.
"This long whip is a treasure, exquisite workmanship, very easy to use, I want to ask you for self-defense, what do you think?"
"Where is it, the Hundred Alchemy Locks on the princess's waist are from the hands of Ya'er Bai, and they can really be regarded as a treasure, compared to them, my long whip is something that can't be seen."
Yu Fengcheng speaks and does things, he is always so humble and polite, and he is so measured, as a subordinate, he can definitely be called an imitation.
"Then I'll take it, you can go in." Wei Xueying nodded, hooking her lips and smiling.
Yu Fengcheng lowered his head and took two steps back, then turned around and went back to the hall, leaving Wei Xueying alone.
Wei Xueying took out a long whip and played with it in her hand.
The rain was a little lighter, but Wei Xueying still sat under the eaves and did not enter the hall.
She didn't want to smell the burnt smell of the corpse, which would seriously affect her appetite and mood.
Chu Ling ordered Yu Fengcheng to go to a nearby house to get a bowl of hot ginger soup, personally brought it to Wei Xueying, and said gently: "Come, concubine, drink this bowl of ginger soup, you can drive away the cold, you are wet." ”
Wei Xueying's silence was interrupted by Chu Ling, who raised her eyes to look at him, Chu Ling was unprecedentedly gentle at this time.
In other words, he has always been gentle, and Chu Ling at this time is particularly gentle.
There was a smile on her handsome face, not the usual hippie smile smirk, but a smile that was sincere enough, as if to comfort her as a "victim".
She took it, her fingertips were still cold, and she held it hot in her hand, very warm.
Brown sugar, ginger slices, Wei Xueying sniffed, Chu Ling laughed: "Heh, you can drink it with confidence, this is what this king asked Fengcheng to make personally." ”
Wei Xueying didn't smell any different smells, she took a sip, the sweetness was just right, she didn't like to eat things that were too sweet.
This is the taste of ordinary ginger soup, perhaps because the body is a little cold at this time, so this bowl of ginger soup is extraordinarily warm.

After handing over everything to Chu Yi, who was in charge of the security of the imperial city, Chu Ling ordered someone to transport the valuables ordered by the Wei family back to the Ling Palace, and Wei Chenglong's body was handed over to Yu Fengcheng for placement.
Chu Ling wanted to take Wei Xueying back to the house to rest, but Wei Xueying agreed, but stared at her father's corpse for a while before leaving.
Leaving the Wei Mansion, the rain had already lightened, turning from a downpour to a gentle drizzle.
Chu Ling ordered someone to find the lost treading snow, Wei Xueying jumped on the horse, and Chu Ling also followed.
He encircled Wei Xueying from behind and pulled the reins.
"There are a lot of horses, why don't you ride the one you came?" Wei Xueying said dissatisfiedly.
"Aifei, it seems that you belong to the overlord, but stepping on the snow is my mount, when did it become yours." Chu Ling made a headache and shook her head helplessly.
"What's yours is mine, mine, or mine."
Chu Ling nodded and said dotingly: "Yes, Lord Aifei, we will ride your horse back to your palace, and by the way, I will also be yours." ”
The atmosphere became lively, and Chu Ling always had the ability to say these innocuous words, which made Wei Xueying feel quite embarrassed.
"Drive!" Wei Xueying drank and galloped up on the snow.
Without umbrellas, they braved the rain.
The road was so dark, even if there were street lamps shining, it still looked dim on this wet and cold rainy night.
*
Early the next morning, when Wei Xueying woke up, Yu Fengcheng had already purchased a high-quality golden silk nanmu coffin and brought Wei Chenglong's body back to the palace.
Chu Ling specially arranged a hall for Wei Chenglong to place the body, and when the mourning is completed, he will choose a cemetery with good feng shui for burial.
No matter what, Chu Ling treated her father like this, and Wei Xueying was relieved in her heart.
The mourning hall was properly arranged, Wei Xueying ate some breakfast, and stood in front of the coffin, the people of the Wei family have not yet arrived, it seems that on this day, the reception of the people of the Wei family is slow enough.
As long as Hua Zili is awake, she must follow behind Wei Xueying, seeing that Wei Xueying has changed into a white mourning dress, Hua Zili has also thrown away the azure robe she is used to wearing, and also changed into white clothes, and continues to follow Wei Xueying.
Wei Xueying was guarding in front of the coffin, Hua Zili looked at the coffin curiously, and seeing that Wei Xueying did not scold him, Hua Zili had the courage to move over, stared at Wei Chenglong in the coffin for a while, and turned it over.
The doctor is always full of curiosity when he sees the corpse, and Wei Xueying does not stop it, although Hua Zili is a little unreliable, he is also a measured person.
Suddenly, Hua Zili's face changed, and she attached herself to Wei Xueying's ear and asked, "Xueying, have you ever seen the injury on your father's chest?" ”
"You've seen it, what?"
"His wounds are different from others."
"Yes, the wound is smooth and cross-shaped, perhaps he was stabbed with a sword flat, and he was afraid that he would not die, so he made up for it vertically." Wei Xueying said.
She watched the maids change her father's shroud, so she naturally saw it.
"No, it wasn't a double stab." Hanako Li frowned, and a shadow brushed over her beautiful face: "It was injured by someone with a cross-shaped blade." ”
"Is there still such a weapon in the world?" Wei Xueying was a little strange after Hua Zili's reminder.
She had never seen a weapon like this, so she hadn't thought about it that way.
Hua Zili sighed, seeing that only he and Wei Xueying were there in the mourning hall, and the maids were blown away by Wei Xueying early in the morning, so she whispered: "Don't hide it, my master, the medicine king Cen Sun, was also killed by such a weapon." ”
"Who's the murderer?"
"The murderer, I still don't know who it is, and because the master was killed, all the dozens of disciples in the Medicine King Valley were killed overnight, fortunately, I came to the imperial city to buy food that night, and I escaped, so I put poisonous snakes in the medicine forest, just to prevent those people from coming to the Medicine King Valley again, I have no ability to protect myself, and my martial arts are not as good as others, so I can only do so."
Hua Zili said with some sadness that he had grown up in the Medicine King Valley since he was a child, so naturally he would not leave, and all he could do was to protect himself.
As soon as he said this, Wei Xueying analyzed: "In my opinion, my father and the person who killed your master may be the same person, and this person must have great powers, the ability to kill, and the ability to offend the family and relatives." ”
Hanako Li nodded, the reason why he was deliberately studying his master's medical skills and studying poisonous insects and poisons was also to protect himself.
He has no martial arts, so he can only rely on poison.
Speaking of poison, Hanako Pear thought of Anu, he took care of Anu, and it can be found from Anu's veins that Anun's internal strength is very deep, although it looks weak.
If it weren't for his deep internal strength to suppress the toxicity, I'm afraid he would have been dead a long time ago.
And the danger is that his identity is unknown.
Hua Zili and Wei Xueying, like Wei Xueying, also noticed the strangeness of the atmosphere around them, and what kind of conspiracy it seemed to have, but they could only understand it and not be able to speak.
It seems that he has to be careful not to cause trouble.
Seeing Hua Zili's frightened face, and still in shock when she remembered what happened a few years ago, Wei Xueying smiled and patted him on the shoulder, comforting: "Hua Zili, don't worry, as long as you are by my side, I will protect you, it seems that our enemies are the same person, I have found the murderer, and I will definitely help you avenge." ”
Hua Zili waved goodbye to the horror and replaced it with a pure and flawless smile, he was very happy, so he had more reason to follow Wei Xueying.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, the cough sounded very inopportunely, Chu Ling raised his feet and entered the mourning hall, looked at the two of them, and put on a jealous look.
At this time, Wei Xueying's hand was still on Hua Zili's shoulder.
