However, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual in the dimness.

Or maybe they were in a hurry and forgot to close the cellar door, and a night breeze poured in......

She didn't dare to delay for a moment, and strode towards the wooden boxes.

She held the candle in one hand, moved the brocade boxes aside with the other, and finally touched a small inconspicuous box.

At this moment, she was slightly settled in her heart.

She knew that the thing must still be there—if it was really discovered, how could the Song family be so calm at this time.

But how could Song Jinniang suddenly have good signs?

She obviously did everything according to the man's explanation, and the man also said that this poison can't be solved by outsiders at all...... Could it be that the mute woman was really unusual?

But the man also told her that if she reached the last moment when she would no longer attract attention, as long as she burned the Gu worm to death, the person who fell into the Gu would definitely die......

She's wanted to do the same these days, but she couldn't make up her mind.

But in this current situation, if she doesn't do something, I'm afraid the situation will really get out of control.

Taking advantage of the fact that Song Jinniang has not really been good at the moment, and ended all this in time, maybe the improvement in the past few days will just be a return to the light in the eyes of others, and it will not cause any speculation and trouble when I think about it.

Thinking so, she took out the key she had hidden to open the small lock, and her eyes flashed with struggle.

But that little bit of struggle didn't shake her determination.

Now she has no way out.

"Click-"

The brass lock was opened, and there was a faint crisp sound.

She couldn't wait to open the box.

But in the next moment, his face changed greatly.

The box is empty, and there is nothing left!

The Gu worm is gone!

At this moment, great surprise and fear came at her at the same time, and she kept searching around with her uneasy eyes.

It stands to reason that the box and the copper lock are intact, and the worms will never crawl out on their own!

But right now, she didn't have anything else to do but look for it first.

She moved a few boxes away, and she never let go of any corner.

The cold eroded all around, and everything she touched was like ice, making people can't help but tremble their teeth, but her heart seemed to jump out of her throat, and she was covered with sweat in a short moment.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"I wonder what my wife is looking for here?"

“……”

She froze, and the candle in her hand fell to the ground, and the wick struggled to flicker a few times before extinguishing.

They plunged into brief darkness until the man hiding in the darkness lit the fire fold in his hand.

This is the eldest girl of Jinqingju, named Ah Xiang, who has practiced martial arts since childhood, and has been by Song Jinniang's side all these years.

At this time, Ah Xiang looked at the familiar back steadily, restrained the anger and coldness in his heart, and only said in a condensed voice: "It's too cold here, please go out with the servant." ”

The man turned around, and it was Yu.

At this time, she stroked her chest lightly, and said in shock: "It turned out to be Ah Xiang, I don't know when you came in, but it scared me a lot." ”

Ah Xiang pursed his lips, didn't say much, and only turned sideways to give way.

Yu's eyes quickly swept over the box and key on the ground, forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, and clearly knew that he would do more and make more mistakes at this time, so he could only get out of the ice cellar as calmly as possible under Ah Xiang's gaze.

After a while, the lights were lit up again in Jinqing's residence.

Song Ju, who was still sorting out the accounts in the outer study, strode all the way over, his eyes swept around the hall, and he couldn't help frowning and asked, "What about people?" ”

Didn't Sister call someone to pass a message to him, saying that she had already led out the inner response?

That's right, this time, Sister A's so-called "great good" is just a means to lure the snake out of the hole.

The medicine that Song Jinniang took in the past two days was the medicine that Dr. Fu was prepared to hang the spirit, which was the same medicine that Zhang Qiuchi used in the previous township examination, so the spirit was acceptable at this time, and he was helped by Song to sit in the padded circle chair in the hall.

Hearing Song Ju's question, she didn't make a sound, but her face was a little paler than in the daytime.

Song Ju looked at Yu who was standing aside.

Yu had just returned here, and he had already put on a coat, but his hair was loose and loose, loosely pulled up and half draped behind his head.

"Ah Zhi, are you resting here tonight?"

Song Ju felt that the atmosphere under him was indescribably strange.

Yu nodded and said: "I saw that Sister A was much better during the day, and I was very happy in my heart, so I came to talk to Sister Ah in the evening, and I forgot the time when I talked about it." And because I haven't talked to Sister A for a long time, I just feel like I can't get close, Sister Ah left me a word, so I simply rested here with a cheeky face. The one who asked someone to go back and spread the word didn't reach the master? ”

"I've been in the outer study, and I haven't been back to the yard."

Song Ju replied, and then looked at the faces of Song Jinniang and the Song family, and the strangeness in his heart became more and more serious.

At this time, Ah Xiang on the side opened his mouth.

"I'm afraid that the old man didn't know yet, but Mrs. Fang Cai didn't alarm anyone, and quietly went to the ice cellar. And took out the key on his body and opened the box. ”

Song Ju suddenly jumped a few times in her heart when she heard this, and looked at the wooden box she was holding in her hand.

The wooden box was open, and a small key lay quietly inside.

"Ah Zhi, what the hell is going on?" He looked at Yu with an unpredictable gaze.

Yu's heart sank.

It's not like she didn't think that she was being designed.

It's just that I didn't expect that her husband was also an insider.

Thinking that the other party took an extra coat before coming to Jinqingju that day, she already had a distinction in her heart at this time.

"I'd like to ask what's going on?" She spoke, her tone full of confusion and confusion, and said jokingly, "I just went to the ice cellar...... How can it be like a thief who has been caught in the wrong place? ”

"It's late at night, why are you going to the ice cellar?" Song Ju's eyes were a little tight: "Why do you have this key on your body-"

Two days ago, when discussing countermeasures, Sister Ah told him that Jinqing Curie had been thoroughly investigated, and it was clean and there was no suspicious person.

However, when it comes to making a move, except for the people around him, outsiders don't have this opportunity to do it at all.

Therefore, there should be inside, although he is not in Jinqingju, he must be someone who has close contact with Sister A.

In the past two days, he thought upside down, because he eliminated them one by one, and thought about what he should have thought about and what he shouldn't have thought about.

But when it comes to true suspicion, he doesn't use it against his wife.

"I just couldn't sleep at night, and suddenly I thought that I had brought a box of snow clams and asked someone to put them in the ice cellar. A few days ago, Sister A's body was too weak, and I was afraid that my weakness would not be replenished, so I didn't ask anyone to use it-I just thought, Sister A's body has improved a lot in the past few days, and I have also rested here left and right, so it is better to stew a cup for Sister A. ”

This sentence vaguely reached the ears of Zhang Meishou, who rushed to the courtyard after hearing the news.
