Chapter 31

After three rounds of drinking, Qi Lu saw Pei Liping talking to him about some spells, and he couldn't help but feel unhappy, he put down his wine glass and said: "Mr. Pei, your wife has only been gone for a few days, and we are drinking here, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate."

"Alas, the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come," Pei Liping seemed a little drunk

"Yes, I'm afraid that this new one is not in this world."

Pei Liping was shocked when he said this, he looked up and saw Qi Lu looking at him coldly, and suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly smiled to cover it up: "Master, why should I take it seriously, I'm just joking"

"I don't know what you think of Daochang Ye's death," Qi Lu said again

"To be honest, I don't really believe that Master Ye was killed by a ghost, and now it seems that this mystery is probably up to you, Master, to solve it."

"According to my investigation in the past few days, there have been people in this community who have died one after another this year, and the cause is unknown," Qi Lu began to be half shocked and half deceitful

"I think that Master Ye said that this is an auspicious place of feng shui, and it is difficult for a hundred ghosts to enter its door," Pei Liping took a sip of wine and said: "I just listened to his words before moving here to live, but you have a different opinion from him."

You still want to go around in circles with me, Qi Lu didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he went straight to the topic, "I found out after investigation that the cause of your wife's death is also strange" After saying this, Qi Lu's eyes looked directly at Pei Liping

"Yes, I don't know what the master has discovered," Pei Liping said very calmly, rubbing his nose unnaturally with his right hand

Qi Lu had studied psychology before, and knew that his actions had the meaning of forcibly covering up the truth, so he couldn't help but feel a little more confident, so he sneered and said to him: "You lost a lot of medicine bottles during your wake that day, do you remember?"

"When did the master care about the garbage," Pei Liping was not in a hurry, reached out and drank the wine in the cup, and then picked up the bottle and poured the wine

"Oh, the wine is drunk so fast, in a blink of an eye, this bottle is gone," Pei Liping stood up

Qi Lu was shocked in his heart, and looked at him vigilantly to prevent him from secretly releasing Gu

Who knew that Pei Liping just took out a bottle of wine from the refrigerator and turned around and said to Qi Lu: "Come on, we won't get drunk today," after speaking, he unscrewed the bottle cap and poured himself full of wine, and then got up again to pour wine for Qi Lu

Qi Lu looked at him in surprise, I don't know what kind of ghost he is doing, is he trying to get drunk before he starts, but he thought about it and was relieved, thinking that although I can't drink as much as Lao Wu, it's okay to drink two catties of liquor, you can't pour me down so easily, not to mention that Ding Xiaolan doesn't drink alcohol, what's wrong with the situation, she can also adapt to you, and Pei Liping can't play any tricks

Qi Lu calmly watched him pour himself another glass of wine, but the vigilance in his heart did not dare to relax for a moment

"Oh, it's so dry," Pei Liping complained after eating a mouthful of food, Qi Lu saw him pick up a purple clay pot from the coffee table next to him and pour himself a cup of tea

Could it be that there was a Gu in the tea, Qi Lu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, but Pei Liping drank the cup of tea by himself and did not pour tea for Qi Lu

What the hell is he doing, is it because he is a thief that he uses these actions to cover up his inner uneasiness?

Just when Qi Lu was speculating, Pei Liping raised his wine glass and said to Qi Lu: "Come and dry this cup, I can also ask the master about the cause of my wife's death."

Qi Lu watched him finish drinking this glass of wine, and was stunned for a moment, and then dispelled his suspicions, he drank two glasses of wine himself, and this wine would definitely not be famous, so Qi Lu also drank the wine in his hand

"If the master has something to say, you might as well say it directly," Seeing that after Qi Lu finished drinking, Pei Liping's face became cold, and he sat up straight

"Originally, I thought Su Ling died of sleepwalking"

"This is also the conclusion issued by the forensic doctor," Pei Liping emphasized

"Yes, I know," Qi Lu said, "but because of a very accidental incident, I changed my opinion."

"What's the matter?"

"I accidentally saw the surveillance video of the hospital that night and found that you actually walked through the back door when you left the hospital at about 9 o'clock in the evening"

"What's so strange about this, is it illegal to go the other way once in a while?"

"I'll ask you when you go through the back door, there's a woman waiting for you at the back door, and he's Cheng Qiang's wife," Qi Lu said loudly

Pei Liping began to be a little uncalm, he was silent and did not speak

"Actually, I didn't think to check the time and place of your departure from the hospital at first, but the money Gu you raised gave me inspiration."

"Money Gu doesn't seem to have anything to do with this, right?"

"Money Gu is a kind of Gu that is more difficult to raise and tame among Gu things, if you can successfully raise it, it means that you can raise ordinary Gu."

Pei Liping stopped talking again, but Ding Xiaolan couldn't understand Qi Lu's words, and she asked curiously: "Why did you connect it with Ms. Su?"

"A lot of Gu will cause the victim to hallucinate when they harm people, plus I already know that Su Ling likes to drink codeine syrup when she has a cold, and you also know that this potion also contains hallucinogenic ingredients, when these two factors are added together, I have to suspect that someone deliberately made Su Ling fall into hallucinations in order to achieve his ulterior purpose."

"So that's the case," Ding Xiaolan was completely convinced that Pei Liping was the murderer of her wife

Qi Lu looked at Pei Liping and said in a deep voice: "What's more, you didn't pour out all the potions in the discarded medicine bottle, and I took it to an authoritative institution for testing, and the results proved that you deliberately increased the content of hallucinogens in it."

"You're talking nonsense," Pei Liping cried out like a beast, and the man swished to his feet

"You don't know why my colleague Lao Wu didn't come today, because the test report is in his hand and can be uploaded to the network at any time."

Pei Liping was speechless and sat down in his chair for a moment

Ding Xiaolan couldn't close her mouth when she listened, she really admired Qi Lu's courage, obviously Lao Wu hadn't tested the ingredients of the potion, so Qi Lu dared to use it to scare Pei Liping and make him believe it

Pei Liping took a sip of wine tremblingly and said calmly: "You can't sue me based on this evidence."

"Of course, I know this better than you," Qi Lu shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that you did everything you could, but you didn't calculate that the affair with Cheng Qiang's wife was discovered by Cheng Qiang, with his temper, of course, he asked someone to teach you a lesson, but things are so unfortunate that they happened to be bumped into by me when they beat you, plus in the past few days, you and I have been dragged into the illusion by unknown mysterious forces one after another, so I have the opportunity to see your wife turn into a ghost and want to kill you, so you panicked for a while, for fear that I will detect your secret."

Qi Lu paused, raised his glass, took a sip of wine, and then said: "So you started to look for a way out, trying to find an opportunity to kill me, but you were worried that I was strong in spells, and I was afraid that I would not succeed, but instead exposed myself in advance, after thinking about it, you decided to get rid of Cheng Qiang and his wife, as long as they died, all the clues will be broken, even if someone suspects you, you can't come up with conclusive evidence."

Pei Liping muttered like a dead ash: "I thought you were just a cultivator, but I didn't expect you to be so strong in reasoning."

Qi Lu laughed, "This is the difference between me and Ye Xuanzhi, you underestimate me."

Pei Liping's eyes began to show a fierce light, and he asked Qi Lu: "What did Cheng Qiang's ruffian say to you?"

Qi Lu swept his gaze towards Ding Xiaolan, and Ding Xiaolan took out his mobile phone and turned on the audio of the recording

Listening to Cheng Qiang's words to Qi Lu, Pei Liping laughed wildly, and his demeanor returned to normal again, he rubbed his hands and asked Qi Lu: "If you have anything else to ask, just ask, otherwise you won't have a chance."

Qi Lu was stunned for a moment, but then asked him again: "Do those people in the community with abnormal causes of death have anything to do with you?"

"No," Pei Liping shook his head and said, "Don't think of me as a vicious murderer, these neighbors have nothing to do with me, why should I kill them?"

"That's what I said," Qi Lu then asked: "Ye Xuanzhi's death really has nothing to do with you."

"It seems that you are not so smart," Pei Liping sneered and said: "Although he always says bad things about me behind my back, I am too scheming, and I am not a good candidate for cultivation, but his knowledge of Gu cultivation is much more profound than mine, if I play a little trick behind my back, how can I hide from his eyes, do you say I dare to trouble him?"

Qi Lu stopped talking, although this was the same as he expected, he was still a little unwilling

Pei Liping said again: "Actually, I also know the strangeness of Ye Xuanzhi's death, and I originally wanted to understand the reason through you, but now it seems that there is no need for this."

"Why do you want to kill people and kill people" Qi Lu sneered and said: "You can't even deal with Ye Xuanzhi and still want to beat me"

The laughter of "hehe" is worse than the cry of an owl

I saw Pei Liping stand up, his eyes were full of fierce light, he shook his head and said proudly: "You should have seen a lot of martial arts, those martial arts heroes will naturally not lose to people who are not as good as him in the competition," Pei Liping put the unfinished bottle of wine in front of Qi Lu when he spoke

Qi Lu suddenly realized from his ill-intentioned eyes that his situation was not good, and he suddenly realized that he had overlooked a detail, and it was this detail that made Pei Liping's treacherous plan succeed

Pei Li said with a smile: "Those heroes often die in the hands of villains, as for the cause of death, maybe he died of poisoning, maybe he died under a hidden weapon, or in some kind of organ, but it doesn't matter, the important thing is that his martial arts can't save his life."

Qi Lu sighed lightly and pointed to the bottle of wine and asked Pei Liping: "Did you put Gu in this bottle of wine?"

"Plus 10 points if you get it right"

Qi Lu asked: "But you also drank this wine and drank two glasses, how can it be fine?"

"That's because I took the antidote that I had prepared a long time ago"

"Where is the antidote, how did I not see it"

Pei Liping raised the purple clay pot in front of his desk and said: "The antidote is in the tea, I drink a cup of wine and a cup of tea, and I can naturally remove the Gu poison in my body."

"I'll fuck your ancestor," Qi Lu jumped up and wanted to seize the purple clay pot, Pei Liping had already taken precautions, his body slammed back, and after avoiding Qi Lu's pursuit, he quickly let go of his hand, and Qi Lu heard a "bang" and saw the purple clay pot fall to the ground and shatter
