Chapter 349: The Plague [6]

At the end of the river is a cave from which the water flows.

Chu Mohan asked the few officials who were more familiar with this area; "Have any of you ever entered this cave?"

A chubby servant took a step forward; "The village where the little one lives is on the other side of this mountain, and when the little one was a child, he often went into this cave with a few friends to play, and he knew a lot about this cave."

Chu Mohan nodded; "You lead the way."

The officer walked in front, and the rest walked behind.

The group entered the cave.

The space in the cave is relatively open, and before entering the cave, the group has already prepared torches for lighting.

Torches will illuminate the surroundings.

In addition to the sound of gurgling water, the sound of footsteps as people walked.

Gradually, the space inside the cave became narrower and narrower, and the road was divided into two.

The servant who was at the front stopped and rushed to the crowd walking behind him; "Both roads are dead ends, except that one ends in a big pool."

Su Wan asked; "Is that puddle huge?"

The officer replied; "It's not huge, but it's not very small."

Su Wan thought about it; "Let's go to the waterhole first."

The group followed behind the officer.

It didn't take long to come to the waterhole that the official had said.

The space around the waterhole, as the official said, was not very large, but it was not a lot.

There is a hole the size of a wellhead directly above the waterhole.

The light from outside the cave came in.

Su Wan circled around the waterhole.

The water in the waterhole is so clear that even the stones in the waterhole can be seen clearly.

"There's nothing wrong with this pool." Su Wan said; "Could someone have poisoned this pool?"

Chu Mo Handao; "Let's look around, look carefully, and don't let go of any place."

One of the officials suddenly shouted excitedly; "There are discoveries."

The crowd walked up to the officer.

The official pointed to the cave wall; "It looks like someone dug it up."

Everyone's eyes fell on the cave wall.

The soil on the wall of the cave that the servant pointed to looked fresher than the soil in other places.

Chu Mohan ordered; "Dig this place up."

After a while, the cave wall was dug open.

A hole that was not too big appeared in front of everyone.

Su Wan was bold and was the first to enter the cave.

The space inside the cave is about the size of a room, and at first glance it is clear that someone has dug it on purpose, and there are obvious traces of tools on the walls of the cave.

The space in the cave is not large, only Su Wan, Chu Mohan, Bi Xiaoyao, Night Scene and Leng Xue'er enter, and the rest are guarded outside the cave.

Inside the cave was a wooden table the size of a desk, with a bookshelf next to it, and the cave was filled with the smell of medicinal herbs and an unpleasant rancid stench.

Su Wan resisted the urge to vomit and pinched his nose; "How can there be such a foul rancid smell here?"

The eyebrows of the night scene are slightly raised; "It smells a lot like the smell of a rotting corpse."

Hearing the words of the night scene, Su Wan almost couldn't help but vomit.

Except for her and Leng Xue'er, the other three not only did not pinch their noses, but their faces remained as usual.

Su Wan thought to himself, isn't the nose of the three of them not good at all, otherwise with such a strong smell, the three of them are like no one.

Chu Mohan saw that Su Wan had been staring at him, and turned his head to look at her; "What's wrong? Did I get something dirty on my face? ”

Su Wan shook his head; "Your face is clean, and you don't have anything dirty, I'm just curious, can't you smell this bad smell?"

Chu Mohan's tone was calm; "I can smell it, there's nothing wrong with my nose."

"Then you're all like nobody."

Because of pinching his nose, Su Wan's nasal voice was very strong when he spoke.

Chu Mohan said lightly; "The taste is within my acceptable range."

Su Wandi's gaze moved from Chu Mohan to Bi Xiaoyao, and then from Bi Yaodi to Ye Youjing.

Bi Xiaoyao shrugged; "Remember the poison I smelled for you?"

Su Wan rolled her eyes, how could she forget that the smell was even worse than this one.

The tone of the night scene is light; "I crawled out of the pile of dead people."

Su Wan was stunned for a moment.

She seemed to see a trace of sadness in his eyes.

Whether it's his past or the person he is, they don't know anything about him.

Su Wan's heart suddenly sprouted, wanting to understand his thoughts.

They didn't know anything about him except that he was the pavilion master of Mingyue Pavilion, and they didn't even know what his name was.

"What's your name?" Su Wan suddenly blurted out.

The night scene looked deeply at Su Wan, and his eyes were indifferent and distant; "Why should I tell you my name, do we know each other well?"

He's right, they're not acquainted.

Su Wan retracted his gaze.

Chu Mohan's voice was gentle; "I'll leave it to us here, you and Miss Leng will go out and wait."

Su Wan nodded, she really couldn't stand the smell here, now he only felt a headache, and his stomach was tumbling, very uncomfortable.

Su Wan looked at Leng Xue'er, and Leng Xue'er nodded at her.

The two left.

Walking out of the cave, Su Wan took a deep breath and took a while to recover.

She sniffed her body, and her clothes had that smell too.

A pair of plain white hands reached out to her.

"Night Princess, try this sachet, this sachet can lighten the smell on your body."

Su Wan reached out and took the sachet, put it under his nose and sniffed it.

"It smells so good."

The tip of the nose surrounds a faint scent of jasmine.

"Look, what is this?"

Bi Xiaoyao held a piece of paper in her hand.

Chu Mohan and Ye Youjing came to his side, and their eyes fell on the paper in Bi Xiaoyao's hand.

When the two saw what was written on the paper, their faces changed.

Chu Mohan said in a deep voice; "Could it be that this is the prescription for the ghost elixir?"

"This should be only a part, I didn't expect the materials needed to make the ghost pill to be so vicious." Bi Xiaoyao gritted his teeth.

"Could it be that there is such a foul rancid smell here?" Take a look around the night scene; "Did you notice that something seems to be missing here?"

Chu Mo Handao; "Indeed, here is the paper with what is written, but there is no medicine jar for decoction."

Night View Road; "There should be other holes besides this one."

Su Wan saw the three of them come out and asked; "But what did you find?"

Bi Xiaoyao handed the piece of paper to Su Wan.

Su Wan took the piece of paper, and when she saw what was written on the paper, her face changed.

"This ......"

"Everything on the shelf is what is written on this piece of paper." Bi Xiaoyao looked at Leng Xue'er; "Miss Leng, please take a look, is what is written on this piece of paper what you need to make a ghost pill?"
