Although Zhao Jingxuan was hesitant at first, not wanting Jiang Liang to risk himself, he was very fast and efficient when he actually took action.

He quickly asked Xiao Yuchen to arrange and send someone to announce that the murderer had been caught, and also asked some people to secretly publicize that Jiang Liang was about to participate in the Imperial Chef Competition, and the news that he was bound to win the first place.

Such a thing quickly caused a sensation in the capital, and everyone did not expect that this time the efficiency of Dali Temple was so high, and the murderer was caught so quickly.

However, the people outside were happy with the news, and while they were relieved, Zhao Jingxuan's side couldn't relax at all, as long as he thought that after the news spread, the other party might jump over the wall and do something beyond his expectations.

On the one hand, he let the secret guard lurk in the inn, and he himself would put some small objects on the bedroom window every night to ensure that when someone sneaked through the window at night, he would be the first to be discovered.

Jiang Liang saw Zhao Jingxuan's nervousness in his eyes, and he felt a little guilty in his heart, it was all because of her idea that he had to be so frightened.

However, there are some things that know the danger, but there are still people who want to take the initiative to stand up.

At night, Jiang Liang beckoned Zhao Jingxuan to rest early, hoping that they would be able to recharge their energy before the murderer appeared.

In fact, Jiang Liang was not as calm as she seemed on the surface, she slept next to Zhao Jingxuan these nights, thinking that she might face danger, she often woke up, woke up and slept, and was restless all night.

She wondered what the guy who was hiding in the shadows would do after she laid it out.

The cause of the chef's death made her feel that the real murderer would not kill her easily this time, and the silence of the past few days was just arranging a killing game that she thought was perfect.

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Liang felt his eyelids drooping uncontrollably, and finally fell asleep.

She felt as if she had arrived in a very quiet place, where she could hear pins falling and not a single person.

"Ah Xuan?"

Jiang Liang tried to call Zhao Jingxuan's name, hoping to get a response, but it was still quiet, completely deserted.

She felt uneasy and walked forward, trying to get out of this ghostly place.

But suddenly she stumbled under her feet, and she felt that the whole person fell uncontrollably, which made her tremble all over, and she woke up from her dream.

At this moment, Jiang Liang suddenly smelled a strange fragrance.

She didn't have a way to tell what the fragrance was coming from just by the smell like Zhang Qingting, but her keen five senses still allowed her to judge the source of the fragrance.

Jiang Liang took a deep breath and realized that it might be the murderer who had finally started to act.

She had already imagined that no matter how arrogant that person was, he would not dare to do anything in the post house, first of all, the post house was not a place where anyone could enter like a restaurant, and there were even officers and soldiers guarding it, responsible for protecting the personal safety of officials.

If he broke into the inn and did it, he would probably be caught directly, and all the preparations he made would be in vain.

Moreover, Jiang Liang was sure that this person would definitely arrange a special environment for killing, and he would not be able to show his strength in the post house.

With these two reasons, Jiang Liang could conclude that the other party must first try to lure people out of the post house at night and then wait for the opportunity to move.

After smelling this strange fragrance, Jiang Liang had an idea in his heart.

She got up and opened a small box, took out a porcelain bottle from it and put it between Zhao Jingxuan's nose, and the pungent smell woke him up at once.

"What's wrong with me?"

Zhao Jingxuan woke up suddenly, jumped up, and looked at Jiang Liang in surprise.

He was originally guarding Jiang Li's side, staring at her without blinking, for fear that if he was a little negligent, she would be in danger.

As time passed, Zhao Jingxuan became more and more uneasy, and his vigilance increased several times compared to usual.

But he never thought that he would fall asleep after being so tightly guarded.

Zhao Jingxuan is very sure that if it weren't for the action of external forces, he would not have been able to fall asleep, and he didn't even have a memory of when he fell asleep!

In an instant, his vigilance was raised to the highest.

"It should be that guy who is on the move." Jiang Liang explained lightly.

Zhao Jingxuan nodded, at this time he already smelled a strange aroma in his nose, if it weren't for Zhang Qingting's medicine to keep him awake, he had no doubt that he would be lured by this fragrance.

His face suddenly became ugly, and it seemed that the man had really used this strange trick to lure the chef to the scene of the crime.

It's just that at this time, he has a little doubt, that is, Jiang Liang doesn't seem to be affected by this fragrance, and he still looks calm.

Zhao Jingxuan speculated that the real murderer should have used drugs to stun them all first, so that whether it was the soldiers or secret guards guarding outside the house, even the people in the house would be stunned by the incense, and then used this strange spice to lure the people in the house out.

When they get out, they will aim for the target.

But Jiang Liang seemed to be fine, but he was more affected.

Zhao Jingxuan was immediately puzzled and stared at Jiang Liang.

Jiang Li naturally noticed his strangeness, and after a little thought, he understood what was going on, and smiled at him.

"Actually, there's one thing I didn't tell you, I seem to be immune to drugs now......"

Jiang Liang didn't know how to explain her physique, she couldn't say that she had special functions, and her body would continue to change with the system.

But this kind of thing can't be done without making it clear.

"I don't know when these drugs didn't work for me. I wasn't affected before in the Dragon Shadow Temple, have you forgotten? ”

After Jiang Li's reminder, Zhao Jingxuan also remembered what happened before, when Yuehua was affected by the temple's incense, she almost had an accident, but Jiang Liang was not affected.

Because at that time, their attention was focused on how to expose the conspiracy of the Zhen Yu Alliance, so they ignored this point, and now after Jiang Li's reminder, he also reacted immediately.

"I see!"

If it were someone else, who knew that he was being concealed by the person next to him, it would probably cause dissatisfaction, but Zhao Jingxuan was completely different.

On the contrary, he was proud and relieved that Jiang Liang had such a special ability.

That way, she won't be threatened by the other party's design.

"Then we ...... now"

Zhao Jingxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, asking Jiang Liang's opinion.

If he hadn't guessed wrong, the man would have been outside waiting for their reaction.

Jiang Liang nodded and said softly, "I will pretend to be a trick and walk out of the post house, and you will follow me to protect my safety when the time comes." ”

As he spoke, Jiang Liang handed the porcelain vase to Zhao Jingxuan's hand.
