Chapter 146: Mo Sorrow Grass

After returning to the yamen, Zong Jiyuan asked Wang Yu to "do what he should do", and he went to the kitchen to have dinner first, and happened to hear the master in charge of the spoon say that Mr. Ye had not eaten yet, so he took the initiative to send the prepared food box in his hand to his uncle.

This Mr. Ye never seems to go anywhere, basically stays in the county government, even during the New Year's holidays, and he has never seen him leave, so Zong Jiyuan came directly to his residence and knocked on the door.

"Uncle Ye, are you there? It's me, Ji Yuan. ”

"Ji Yuan?"

From the tone of voice, it can be heard that Mr. Ye and Ye Guangqian were quite surprised by her arrival,

"Come in, you're welcome."

"Then the nephew came in,"

I was informed again, and Zong Jiyuan walked in with a food box.

"Uncle Ye, I heard from the master in the kitchen, you haven't eaten dinner yet, so my little nephew sent it to you."

"Forget it, don't plan to confuse your uncle and me,"

Ye Guangqian smiled lightly and said,

"You busy man, how can you have time to come and bring me food? And you've already given me a New Year's greeting, so let's say, what are you here for? ”

"That's what happened,"

Zong Ji Yuan said while putting the food box on the table, and took out the meal prepared by the kitchen master and placed it on the table in the same way,

"My little nephew has been following the clues of a case these days and found a strange thing, so I came to ask Uncle Shi for advice."

"Yes,"

Ye Guangqian watched her lay out the meals, then sat down at the table, picked up the chopsticks and said,

"Well, let's hear about it."

"Uncle Shi, do you think there is any way to make a person who is originally very normal often see some people or things that do not exist?"

Zong Jiyuan also sat down where his head drooped and asked his own questions.

Ye Guangqian didn't answer immediately, but his eyes were fixed on the same place, and the movements in his hands were a little more mechanical.

"If you're talking about witches or something, your uncle and I don't understand."

"How could it be that kind of thing,"

Zong Jiyuan couldn't help but smile helplessly and said,

"I wonder if that girl was drugged by someone, but could there be that kind of medicine......

"Girl?"

Ye Guangqian's gaze became sharp again, glanced at her, and asked,

"Where's the girl? Can't you tell me more about what the hell is going on? ”

"Of course you can,"

Knowing that this uncle of mine has a strange temperament, so don't hide it from him, Zong Jiyuan also nodded and said,

"It's just this matter, the little nephew hasn't found out a clue for a while, let alone accurate clues, so I ask Uncle Shi not to tell Master He yet."

"Do you think your uncle and I are a big mouth?"

Ye Guangqian smiled and glanced at her and said,

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Of course I have to say,"

Zong Jiyuan moved his chair forward, and then told what happened to June Hong in detail.

Ye Guangqian listened carefully while eating, and when she finished speaking, she said slowly,

"According to what you said, that girl is as you said, nine times out of ten, she was drugged."

"Oh? That's really the case! ”

Getting a conclusion from his uncle, Zong Jiyuan's eyes immediately widened,

"So, Uncle Shi, what kind of medicine will this be?"

"I'm not sure about that,"

Ye Guang thought about it and replied,

"I have also heard in the past that there is such a grass in the southwest region, called 'Mo Yu Cao', the shape of the leaves is very similar to tea leaves, and there is no other obvious taste, if it is mixed with tea brewing, it is difficult for people to notice, and after drinking, it will make people hallucinate."

"That's right...... So, I'm going to have to see if June Red likes tea......"

Hearing his words, Zong Jiyuan said to himself.

Seeing her thoughtful look, Ye Guangqian knocked her head with chopsticks and said,

"But it's not that drinking this grass makes people feel scared, and how can people hallucinate for no reason."

"So, what's going on......"

Zong Jiyuan heard that his uncle was only halfway there, and hurriedly asked again,

"What would it take to put June Red in that state?"

"It's very simple, just before that, really scare her once, and make her feel uneasy."

Ye Guangqian said leisurely,

"In fact, the effect of this grass is not plain frightening, it can only amplify people's inner fear, and as the person who drinks it gradually expands or weakens the inner uneasiness."

"Oh......"

Zong Jiyuan carefully tasted what his uncle said, and pondered,

"In other words, the girl is indeed in real danger, and not all the things she says are imaginary hallucinations?"

"That's it,"

Ye Guangqian nodded, paused and said,

"What kind of person treats a young girl like this, as a performer on stage, who is already pitiful, why should he suffer such a crime......

Uncle Shi would actually show sympathy for someone-

Zong Jiyuan was really surprised by this.

Originally, from the first time I saw him, I had a very indifferent feeling, of course, I didn't know that Mr. Ye, who was a servant, still had a relationship with himself, but the impression of him was that he was indifferent to anyone and everything, as if Uncle Shi was born without any feelings.

But now, he would say such words that were not only indignant, but also a little sad, which made Zong Jiyuan's impression of him immediately change greatly.

Nodding slowly, Zong Jiyuan chuckled,

"Don't worry, uncle, the little nephew will definitely find out about this matter and give the girl justice."

"Cut! You came to investigate the case, but I have the heart to put it. ”

Ye Guang glanced at her and involuntarily sped up the speed of eating.

Zong Jiyuan laughed secretly in his heart, it turns out that Uncle Ye also has such a cute time. After being silent for a while, he remembered something again, and then asked,

"Oh, by the way, Uncle Shi, if a person's throat is artificially damaged, is there any chance of healing?"

"Can you still speak?"

Hearing this question, Ye Guangqian immediately asked rhetorically.

Zong Jiyuan nodded hurriedly,

"It's normal to speak, it's ......"

"I just can't sing, right?"

Before she finished speaking, Ye Guangqian had already picked up the conversation and said,

"His voice will have to wait until he has seen it and understood the extent of the damage and the cause of it, but if he speaks as usual, then your stepfather should be more sure that he will be able to heal him."
