Volume 1 Origin Chapter 367 The Secret in the Pond

Thousands of fish seem to have been stimulated by the clockwork in the body, jumping on the surface of the water jubilantly, one after another, one wave after another, this scene is both shocking and terrifying, densely packed with different kinds of fish of different sizes, but emitting the same kind of action, it is simply weird.

"What's going on?" Banxia held his face with both hands, and finally could make a sound, and exclaimed.

Sugar Pill raised his head proudly, and rubbed his thumb over his nose: "Haha, I'll just say that there are good things to see, you still don't believe it." ”

Rong Ruo said with certainty: "Sugar pill, what kind of Gu did you play this time?" ”

Sugar Pill grabbed a strand of hair on his chest, twisted his face arrogantly and said, "I didn't have it, I found it when I passed by just now, so I didn't give Gu to the fish." She came out of the Chu family to get a lot of firecrackers, and she wanted to throw them into the water to see the effect, but she didn't want to blow up a bunch of fish, and even she was startled, but the fish just now were not as many as they are now.

"Huh? What's the smell, it stinks, do you smell it? Butterfly covered her nose and searched left and right for the source of the smell.

The green finch sniffed and shook his head, Duan Yi and Feng Wu both said that they didn't smell it, Caidie walked towards the pond, and said as he walked: "Why didn't you smell it, it's obviously there, this smell ......" The more you go forward, the clearer it becomes.

Rong Ruo rubbed her nose, the snow was smaller, the wind was not so urgent, the air in the wind was cool and fresh, and the nose was cold, she took a deep breath, raised her eyebrows and said, "There is indeed such a smell." ”

Caidie said happily: "Yes, Miss Rong, you also smell it." "Then it's not her problem, it's the green finches who don't have a good nose!

"Hmm...... I think it's ......" Rong Ruo frowned, looking for the right words to describe this taste, thought for a long time, clapped his hands and said: "Rancid roast duck!" ”

Mu Beichen glanced at Rong Ruo, Chu Feng looked at the sky, the little sister-in-law is really worthy of the true character of a foodie.

Caidie leaned on the railing and bent down to smell it, and beckoned back: "Come on, the smell is from the river." The scene of the fish jumping over the dragon gate slowly stopped, and the water surface was still shaking, as if reminiscing about the wonder just now.

Rong Ruo was closest to her, and walked to the side first, the smell here was strong, and there was no need to smell deliberately, the smell would enter the nose, this time even the green finches they could smell it, but compared to Rong Ruo and Caidie's sensitivity to the smell, they were much sluggish, at most they felt a little smelly, Feng Wu guessed: "Maybe it is the silt in the river." "There are so many fish, and the range of movement is so large, it is normal to drive the pond silt.

"I'll go down and have a look." Rong Ruo was sure that this could not be some silt at all, but it was somewhat familiar, she carefully avoided the railing with her skirt, the green finch followed her and held her hand, Rong Ruo stepped on the stone by the pond, stepped on it and squatted down.

The sugar pill flipped down directly from above, squatted next to Rong Ruo, held his chin with both hands, and looked left and right curiously, "What are you going to do Rong Ruo, do you want to catch fish and roast it?" ”

Out of professionalism, Banxia shook his head and said, "The carp is too fishy and not delicious." ”

Sugar Pill rolled his round eyes, clapped his hands, and said, "You can make a pot of sauerkraut fish." ”

"This ...... It seems like it can. Banxia pondered for a moment, looked at the few fish that jumped to the shore and couldn't get up and down the river, and nodded.

Yuegui beckoned: "Then hurry up and pick up these ones, go back and clean them up and put them in the yard to freeze for a night, and it will be convenient to slice them tomorrow." ”

"Don't move." Rong Ruo saw that Yuegui was about to pick up the fish in front of his feet, so he hurriedly stopped: "These fish are poisonous." ”

Yuegui was startled, quickly retracted her fingers, and took a few steps back, and said in fear: "No, it's quite alive......"

Rong Ruo straightened up, moved away from the small stone with the strength of the green finch's arm, raised his head and said to everyone: "It is this water that poisons people, these fish live in it and eat poisonous water, and naturally their bodies are also poisoned." ”

Duan Yi frowned and said, "If someone poisons someone in the water, will it affect the surrounding residents?" "Water and air are the two most closely related to people's lives, and no matter which one is missing, there is no way to sustain life.

Rong Ruo lowered his head and said something to the green finch, the green finch nodded, and the person jumped in place and disappeared in the dark, Rong Ruo lifted his skirt and walked back along the river bank, and when he climbed up, because the green finch was not there, he could only hold on to the railing and push up by himself, but he didn't want to wear too cumbersome, and it was not as easy to come up as he imagined.

Rong Ruo's eyes were smeared with blackness, his arms were suddenly tightened, and the other party easily pulled up, and Rong Ruo almost bumped into it by inertia, and his hands were unconsciously propped up on the chest in front of him, and when he stood firmly, he found that he immediately retracted it as if he had been burned, and lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you." "Don't let him get me wrong, she really didn't mean to eat his tofu this time.

Mu Beichen opened his eyebrows without moving, standing on the tuyere, his posture was slender and straight, the light and shadow shone on his clear face, and he was always as quiet as jade.

The green finch went fast and did not come back slowly, and said to everyone: "The pond is connected to a river outside the city, and I have brought some water back." ”

Rong Ruo took the water of the green finch and smelled it, then dipped it with his fingers and tasted it with the tip of his tongue, raised his eyes and said: "After the river water is diluted, the composition of water poisoning is very low and very low, and it will basically not cause any harm to people, but just in case, I will get some medicinal powder to let the green finch sprinkle in the river." ”

Mu Beichen glanced at Duan Yi, Duan Yi nodded understandingly, and immediately went down to make arrangements. This pond is bound to be closed, although the poisonous water in it has not affected anyone for the time being, but I am afraid that someone will eat it by mistake. Dumbo eBook

"That is, someone specifically poisoned the pond?" Chu Feng tapped his palm with a closed folding fan, and said suspiciously: "Then it's strange, the people in the city mostly eat well water, what's the use of poisoning a pond?" ”

Sugar Pill sat on the railing and dangled her legs, a light purple short skirt was particularly attractive, and the silver snake mark on her waist shone brightly in the dark night, she tilted her head and wondered: "You Central Plains people are so strange, why is there poison in the water, someone wants to poison it, maybe someone accidentally spilled the poison into it." ”

Feng Wu snapped his fingers: "Yes, someone must have bought a large bag of poisonous powder, walked to the pond and then slipped on the soles of his feet, and the poisonous powder fell into the pond." ”

Sugar Pill blinked, it was indeed possible.

Caidie couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sugar Pill, you're really amazing." Everyone heard that Feng Wu was joking.

"Sugar Pill makes sense." Unexpectedly, Rong Ruoyi was unusual, and he affirmed Sugar Pill's conjecture, "Have you ever heard of a story that an ancient sage dyed a pool of water black in order to practice calligraphy, which may be similar to the poison of this pond." ”

Mu Beichen rolled his eyes and said, "Are you saying that someone cleaned poisonous utensils in the pond, causing the water in the pond to also be poisoned?" ”

Rong Ruo had to admire Mu Beichen's brain, and turned so fast, facing Caidie and said, "Think about it again, is this smell very familiar, where have you smelled it?" ”

Caidie just used the incense on the embroidered handkerchief to remove the smell, holding the embroidered handkerchief with both hands to cover her nose, but the smell lingered in her mind, thought about it, squinted her eyes and said, "I remember!" ”

"That house is right, isn't it?" Rong Ruo answered when Caidie's voice landed.

Caidie nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, yes, it was when we were standing in front of the house, but it was gone when a gust of wind blew at that time, so I didn't think about it for a while." ”

Rong Ruo seemed to let out a sigh of relief because he was sure of something, and said to Mu Beichen: "I also found out just now that although this pond doesn't look close to that room, if a door is opened in the back wall, the straight line distance is quite close. The poisonous powder in the river water has a strong hallucinogenic component, and I think there must be other secrets hidden in the house. ”

Mu Beichen raised his eyebrows, nodded when he heard the words, and gestured to Feng Wu, who was ordered to jump out on the spot, and immediately merged with the darkness.

When a few people left, Chu Feng was puzzled: "What house, little sister-in-law, you know who the murderer is when you look at it like this?" ”

Rong Ruo brushed aside the long hair on the side of his mouth, and his clear eyes were especially bright: "It's also a coincidence, I originally thought it was a simple disappearance, but now it seems that it may not be." ”

"One thing I found is that people are getting along more and more like each other for a long time." Chu Feng was not interested in what was missing, and walked in front with a folding fan, originally the second brother was the only one chattering, but now it's okay, the little sister-in-law has also been infected with this 'vice', which is too sinful.

"Hey!" The sugar pill suddenly jumped out of nowhere, put a head in front of Rong Ruo's eyes from behind, rested his chin on Rong Ruo's neck, and smiled: "I found it, I'm not very powerful." ”

Rong Ruo easily ravaged the fat cheeks of the sugar pill baby, and said with a serious face: "It's not too much waste of food." ”

Sugar Pill's big black and white eyes blinked: "What do you mean?" ”

Banxia smiled and said with a smile on the side: "Miss is saying that you finally did something serious." ”

"Cut~" The sugar pill jumped up, hooked a branch that poked out, turned over and sat down, and puffed out his face dissatisfied: "The people of the Central Plains are all big fools." ”

Hokkeji Temple

In addition to the crowds of people going to the market and enjoying the fireworks, a large number of people came to burn a handful of peace incense on Chinese New Year's Eve, not only to thank the Buddha for his blessing in the past year, but also to hope that everything will be smooth and safe in the coming year.

Xiao Hongmei inserted the burning incense into the incense burner, and donated a lot of incense money to the temple, and after politely refusing the little novice to invite her to drink peace porridge, she walked out of the temple hand in hand with Yan Xun.

There are really a lot of people in the temple today, and the street in front of it is full of stalls, Yan Xun took Xiao Hongmei around the back of the temple and walked a road with few people.

Unlike the bustle and hustle and bustle of the front, this place is quite clean, as if two worlds have been separated out of thin air by a temple. The two of them walked down the street on the snow, and they could hear the 'crunch' sound of the snow being compacted.

Suddenly, a carriage galloped past behind, and the coachman who was blinded by the black lights probably didn't expect that there was someone here, and ran fast, Yan Xun pulled Xiao Hongmei to the side, and the carriage galloped away in front of the two.

Xiao Hongmei watched the carriage disappear into the night from afar, and said casually: "It's the New Year, why are you rushing out of the city at this time." ”
