Chapter 244: The Southern Altar
Zhang Peony! Zhang Jilin coldly spit out three words.
"Ji Rin, leave this matter to me, don't worry, I'll handle it well." Liu Meiniang held Zhang Jilin's hand and said seriously.
The two people who were fighting in the jewelry store today did bump into Liu Meiniang, but when they collided, Liu Meiniang reacted relatively quickly, took two steps back, and before they could make the next move, Liu Meiniang had already pretended to fall to the ground.
If she was hit by those two people, Liu Meiniang would not be what she is now.
But in order to bring out the mastermind behind the scenes, Liu Meiniang gave Zisu a few looks, and Zisu and the others quickly reacted, and made the matter bigger.
"You have a good rest, I will deal with these things, it is not good that I did not protect you." Zhang Jirin held Liu Meiniang's hand tightly.
"You still have your own things to do, you can't guard me twelve hours a day, besides, Zhang Peony's ......"
"Obedient." Zhang Jirin directly interrupted Liu Meiniang's words, and her tone was undoubted.
"Mei Niang, you are my wife, I don't want you to be hurt at all, Zhang Peony's matter, I didn't arrange it in the first place, let you suffer an unwarranted disaster, I will solve her affairs, you can rest in peace, if you can, I hope I, Zhang Jirin, will not let you be hurt at all."
Zhang Jirin gently hugged Liu Meiniang into his arms.
Liu Meiniang obediently crawled on Zhang Jilin's chest and nodded, since Zhang Jilin said so, she no longer insisted, although she is not a greenhouse flower, she must live under the protection of a man, but since her man said that he would protect himself, Liu Meiniang does not mind enjoying the process.
The two embraced each other quietly for a long time.
"Brother Ji Rin, sister-in-law, how is sister-in-law?" Seeing Zhang Jirin coming out of Liu Meiniang's yard in a menacing manner, Zhang Peony was scared and wanted to escape, but there was nowhere to escape, so he could only step forward to ask Liu Meiniang's condition.
Zhang Jirin walked to Zhang Peony's side and glanced at Zhang Peony coldly.
"Kaiyang, bring her here." Zhang Jirin said coldly.
"Brother Ji Rin, Brother Ji Rin, it's none of my business, it's none of my business." Zhang Peony was twisted by Kaiyang's arm, and for the first time he felt threatened.
"It's none of your business?" They took Zhang Peony to a room in the backyard, which was set up in Zhang Jirin's mansion to interrogate prisoners.
"Brother Ji Rin, it's really none of my business, I just want my sister-in-law to accompany me to see the jewelry, I really don't know, I didn't mean to." Zhang Peony was so frightened that he sat down on the ground and denied the three links.
"Why did you go to that jewelry shop?" Zhang Jirin is not a fool, the jewelry shop is located in a remote location, and the store is still small, he has already asked Feng Ming to go over and check.
"Brother Ji Rin, I ......" Seeing a trace of hesitation flashing in Zhang Peony's eyes when he spoke, Zhang Jirin was even more sure that there was something greasy in this.
"Master." Feng Ming's voice sounded outside.
"Come in." Zhang Jirin said coldly.
"There is no one in that jewelry shop," Feng Ming's first sentence when he came in made Zhang Peony stunned.
"No one?" Kaiyang asked rhetorically.
"Well, the store was closed when I passed, and no one knew if I asked the shop next door." Feng Ming added.
"Still not going to tell the truth?" Zhang Jirin got up and walked to Zhang Peony's side step by step, the momentum was compelling, and Zhang Peony was so frightened that he retreated again and again.
"Brother Ji Rin, I'...... Woo woo, she said that as long as I take my sister-in-law to that shop, she can help me, and let my sister-in-law not drive me back Woo woo, I really don't know......" Zhang Mudan had no way back, and finally cried and told the truth.
"She?" Zhang Jilin asked.
"Yu'er, Yu'er, she said her name was Yu'er." Zhang Peony's crying snot and tears flew horizontally.
Hearing the name from Zhang Mudan's mouth, several people were stunned.
"Tell me more about it." Kaiyang's voice was cold, and Zhang Peony trembled in fright.
Zhang Mudan told her and Yu Mingyue about their acquaintance.
The corners of Zhang Jirin's mouth hooked up a sneer, and Zhang Peony felt a chill in his heart.
"So you let Mei Niang accompany you to the jewelry store, if the two of you hit Mei Niang harder...... What do you use to bear the consequences! Zhang Jirin directly slapped the table and stood up.
"Brother Ji Rin, I know it's wrong, I'm ......" Zhang Peony went to pull Zhang Ji Rin's trouser legs, Zhang Ji Rin was indifferent.
"Tomorrow, I'll have someone take you back to Liuhe Village." Zhang Jirin glanced at Zhang Peony and said lightly.
"No, Brother Ji Rin, don't drive me away, please, I don't want to go back, Brother Ji Rin, please." Hearing Zhang Jirin say that he wanted her to go back, Zhang Peony panicked.
Zhang Jirin went out directly past Zhang Peony.
"Miss Zhang, please." Feng Ming made a gesture of please and motioned for Zhang Peony to go out.
Zhang Peony was tired and brought back to the room, and several people moved to the study.
"Master, this ......" Tianshu wanted to speak and stopped.
"Something to say." Zhang Jirin continued to walk forward and said.
"That Yu'er that Miss Zhang said ......," Tianshu hesitated.
"Could it be Yu Mingyue?" Tianxuan blurted out.
Zhang Jilin was silent and didn't speak, in fact, he could be sure in his heart that nine times out of ten it was Yu Mingyue, this Yu Mingyue was like this three times and five times, and he really couldn't do it if he was muddy.
He hadn't had time to settle the account last time, and this time he instigated Zhang Peony to harm Liu Meiniang, if he didn't give her some color, did Yu Mingyue think they were easy to bully.
"Feng Ming, have you arrived?" Zhang Jilin asked.
"It's coming tomorrow, and then it's ......" Feng Ming's heart tightened, and he quickly replied.
"Bring it directly into the house." Zhang Jirin said in a deep voice.
"Yes, master." Feng Ming nodded.
Yu Mingyue gave Zhang Jilin a trick before, Zhang Jilin didn't act for so long, firstly, because Liu Meiniang was pregnant, Zhang Jirin was bent on Liu Meiniang, and secondly, there was no one around them who knew how to do Gu arts, so they acted rashly, afraid of any accidents, not to mention that now that Liu Meiniang is pregnant, Zhang Jirin has to be more cautious.
"What do you think about the matter in Lotus Village?" Zhang Jilin asked.
"Master, Kaiyang came back today and told me, Feng Ming felt that it should be the altar." Feng Ming was the first to speak.
Feng Ming's martial arts are the lowest among several people, but Feng Ming knows a lot of things, and he knows a little about the Southern Xinjiang Gu Technique and the Xiling Imperial Beast, he listened to Kaiyang's description, and it was completely certain that what Zhang Jirin saw today was the altar.
"Go on." Zhang Jirin motioned for Feng Ming to continue.
"If Feng Ming guessed correctly, it should be an altar in southern Xinjiang, called the Blood Altar, this altar is very bad, because it is bait with living people, it is said that the success of the altar can control people's consciousness, make people become puppets, will not be tired and will not be painful, there are records in the history books of Southern Xinjiang before, the puppets used to fight with such puppets, the puppets do not die, and they are very heroic in fighting, but the puppet refining process is very complicated, and the success rate is extremely low." Feng Ming told everything he knew.
After hearing this, a look of shock appeared on the faces of Kaiyang and the others.
"What the hell is this?" Tianxuan opened her mouth and muttered to herself.
"Master, the man will come tomorrow, and when the time comes, you can ask him, and he must know more than we know." Feng Ming paused and said.
"Hmm." Zhang Jirin nodded.
"Tianheng, bring the things you collected that day."
"Master." Tianheng handed out the porcelain vase to Zhang Jirin, which was the unknown liquid collected that day.
"Feng Ming, look at it, what is this?" Zhang Jirin handed the things to Feng Ming.
"It's like ......" Feng Ming took it to his nose and sniffed it, hesitating for a moment.
"Poppy." Zhang Jirin took Feng Ming's words.
"Master, what do you think? But ......" Feng Ming looked at Zhang Jilin in surprise.
"It's not like a poppy, is it?"
Zhang Jilin said in a deep voice.
"Ji Rin." Liu Meiniang's voice suddenly sounded.
"Ma'am." Tianshu turned around and opened the door, and Liu Meiniang came in with a bowl of porridge.
"Why are you here, didn't you say you should have a good rest?" Zhang Jirin hurriedly caught up, and Tianheng also took the plate in Liu Meiniang's hand and put it on the table.
"I see that you haven't come back yet, I heard Zisu say that you are discussing in the study, so I said to bring you some food, so I didn't disturb you." Zhang Jilin led Liu Meiniang and walked over to sit in the position where he was sitting, and Tianheng hurriedly moved another madman to Zhang Jirin.
"No, you've worked hard." Zhang Jirin held Liu Meiniang's hand.
"Are you discussing the matter of Lotus Village?" Liu Meiniang asked.
"Uh-huh." Zhang Jirin nodded.
"What is this?" Liu Meiniang also saw the small porcelain vase on the table, picked it up and asked.
"I found it by the well in Lotus Village, I don't know ......," Zhang Jirin shook his head and said.
Liu Meiniang took the porcelain bottle and sniffed it on her nose.
"Huh, poppy?" Liu Meiniang exclaimed.
"Madam......" Feng Ming was surprised when he heard Liu Meiniang's words.
"Is there something, I'll pour it out and see." Liu Meiniang said.
Tianshu hurriedly took a small plate, and none of them questioned what Liu Meiniang said.
"This ......" Liu Meiniang looked at it for a while, her brows furrowed.
"Madam, it smells like poppies, but ......," Tianxuan said puzzled.
"This is the purified poppy." After half a ring, Liu Meiniang spoke up.
"Purification?" Several people couldn't understand the words Liu Meiniang said.
"That's it...... Let me tell you this, just a little bit of liquid is as effective as the fruit of ten poppies. Liu Meiniang made an analogy, and sure enough, several people's eyes widened instantly.
"This ......"
The room fell silent.
Liu Meiniang also didn't expect that there would be poppies of such high purity in this era.
"Don't touch this thing." Liu Meiniang pursed her lips and looked at a few people and said.
