"It's Gu." Bai Lishan, who had been silent, also frowned at this time. Nanyue is the best at making Gu and practicing Gu, and Bai Lishan is the princess of Nanyue, and among the three, she knows Gu poison the most, "When I first entered the City Lord's Mansion, I was a little suspicious, and then I carefully observed the housekeeper's face, and I could determine that he was poisoned by Gu poison, Half Moon." ”

It's Half Moon Gu again, Lin Xiao said in his heart, he couldn't help frowning slightly, stood aside with his hands, and after thinking for a while, he turned to the two of them, "If there are people in the City Lord's Mansion who are in the Gu, then there must be a place to raise Gu." Shan'er, you go and explore the surroundings to see if you can find any traces of the Gu seed, and Jin'er will come with me to the place where the city lord had an accident. ”

"Okay." Yu Zijin and Bai Lishan immediately responded.

Lin Xiao walked to Yu Zijin's side, hugged his waist, and swept out with light skills, while Yu Zijin gently pulled Lin Xiao's sleeve and let him gallop with him. When I landed, I arrived at a courtyard that covers a vast area and has very simple furnishings.

It should be because the incident happened suddenly, and everyone was busy preparing for the funeral of the city lord, and did not sort out the place where the incident happened. When the two of them entered the main house in the courtyard, they could see a fragment of a floor-to-ceiling antique vase falling towards the window, as well as congealed blood around it. The bedding on the bed was neatly arranged, as if the owner of the house was not ready to sleep.

On the desk next to the bed, there were pen stands and candlesticks upside down, and on the chaise longue beside the table, there seemed to be traces of a sharp sword, and there should have been a fight here.

The corner of his eye touched a sword that was left on the ground, Lin Xiao picked up the sword, and after careful observation, he immediately frowned slightly, looked at the sword marks on the chaise longue, and gestured towards it a few times, as if trying to restore the scene of last night.

Bang Dong –

Suddenly, there was a sound of heavy objects falling to the door, and the two immediately turned their heads to check, and a young man dressed as a small maid stood in front of the door, as if he was frightened by the appearance of the two, and did not grasp the broom in his hand.

"The slave is guilty, and I hope the two nobles will punish him." Seeing that Yu Zijin and Lin Xiao had never spoken, the little girl's body couldn't help but tremble, I don't know if it was because he was afraid that the two would blame him, he was so scared that he knelt on the ground and didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Get up, we have no intention of punishing you." Looking at the broom that fell to the ground, Yu Zijin asked softly, "Did the housekeeper send you to clean up here?" ”

"Back to your nobles, yes." Xiao Xiao's voice was still trembling, and he did not relax because of Yu Zijin's words.

Lin Xiao found the abnormality of the little guy, glanced at the little guy who was kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to look up, and asked, "Did you find any abnormality last night?" ”

According to Lin Xiao's observation, the fear in Xiao Xiao's heart seems to be more than the fear of being punished, even if Yu Zijin said that the two would not delve into it, his fear still did not decrease. The little guy is still young, and there was such a big incident in the house last night, but he came to clean it, so he was scared like this, which is really abnormal. I'm afraid that this little guy has seen or heard something......

"No, no, the minion didn't see anything." Listening to Lin Xiao's words, the little guy trembled even more.

"Who was the one who secretly went out of the city lord's room last night?" Looking at the little guy's reaction, Lin Xiao was even more sure that this little guy was the fish who slipped through the net last night.

The little guy was still kneeling and shaking his head desperately, and Yu Zijin on the side also felt a little wrong.

Seeing that the little guy didn't know what to ask and didn't say anything, Lin Xiao couldn't help frowning slightly, what happened to make a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy so frightened and resistant.

"What happened?" Before Lin Xiao and Yu Zijin could ask for the news, a slightly old voice came from outside the door, interrupting the deadlock between the three people in the room.

"It turned out to be Lin Gongzi, I don't know how Lin Gongzi is here, this ......" At this time, it was the old housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion who suddenly appeared, and he seemed to be a little shocked when he saw the scene in front of him, and after glancing at Lin Xiao and Yu Zijin, he pointed at the little guy and couldn't speak.

Lin suddenly remembered that there was something in the house that needed to be dealt with, so he planned to find the housekeeper to resign, but he got lost here and ran into a little guy in your house. But for some reason, this little guy was very scared when he saw us, he didn't even raise his head, he knelt on the ground, and Lin was strangely tight, so he didn't leave for a while, disturbing the housekeeper. Lin Xiao said.

Although Yu Zijin was amazed by Lin Xiao's ability to lie, he didn't roll his eyes as usual, collected his emotions, and added, "The housekeeper left us here to eat with good intentions, but there was something ...... at home."

"The two of them are serious, it is the old slave who did not entertain him well, and let the distinguished guests lose themselves in the house alone." The old housekeeper didn't seem to notice the abnormality of the two, and he didn't delve into the reason why Lin Xiao and Yu Zijin appeared in the city lord's room, but politely compensated the two. After speaking, he beckoned the two to go out.

Lin Xiao and Yu Zijin glanced at each other, glanced at the little guy who was still shrunk aside, and followed to leave.

In the independent wing room on the third floor of Yipinju, there are two plain white figures, one tall and one short.

"I didn't expect Yipinju to have an outdoor wing, I've never heard of it." Yu Zijin looked at the luxuriously furnished independent wing room in front of him, and couldn't help but start to think about it.

Yu Zijin could also guess that this independent wing room was mostly prepared for the owner who sat next to him and drank tea elegantly, if he hadn't come with Lin Xiao, and Bai Lishan had confessed his identity before, I was afraid that he would not be able to enjoy such luxurious treatment.

"Well, now I know." Lin Xiao had a smile in his eyes, and he could clearly hear that the little girl was making a fuss about concealing the identity of the owner of Yipinju before, and she was really a little guy who held a grudge.

"Is there any benefit in knowing?" Yu Zijin's eyes immediately lit up, his mouth opened slightly, revealing two small front teeth, looking well-behaved, lying on the table with both hands, and approaching Lin Xiao slightly.

Looking at the hint of cunning that flashed in the little girl's eyes, Lin Xiao was relieved, but she didn't intend to follow her words, pretending to be innocent as if she didn't understand, and asked, "What good will it be?" ”

Yu Zijin was not annoyed, moved his body, changed to a more comfortable position, and continued to guide, "Look, we have such a good relationship, and the independent wing room of this product is not small, so it is naturally better to be happy alone than to be happy......

"We have a good relationship, and what does it have to do with the size of this room and the joy of solitude." Lin Xiao raised her hand and took a bite of stewed chicken, her expression was indifferent, as if she didn't care about what Yu Zijin said.

"Huh!" Yu Zijin was a little anxious, but he quickly reacted, suppressed the impatience in his heart, and continued, "Let's put it this way, if you have to go home one day, this first-class house outside the capital will definitely be shelved, how bad is this, not being able to make the best use of things is not the way to do business." Since I'm a friend, why don't you give me permission too, so that the next time you come back, the place won't be dusty because no one has come for a long time. ”

"Well, that makes sense." After listening to Yu Zijin's long speech, Lin Xiao was still unmoved, and after a few responses, he continued to taste the food on the table.

"Lin Xiao!" Seeing that Lin Xiao had no follow-up and looked like he was intoxicated with food, Yu Zijin still didn't give up, and couldn't help but amplify the volume and shouted.

"Huh?" The response was faint.

"Do you say yes or not?" Yu Zijin frowned slightly, turned his body towards Lin Xiao, and stared at him tightly.

"I want to think about it." Lin Xiao raised her eyebrows, couldn't she help it?

Think about it? Then things will take a turn for the better, if the hard ones don't work, the soft ones will come, and Lin Xiao must be allowed to agree! Yu Zijin said in his heart.

"Just promise me, okay~ Lin Xiao is the best~" Yu Zijin hugged Lin Xiao's arm, shook it gently, blinked his big eyes, pouted, and said in a soft voice.

Unexpectedly, Yu Zijin misunderstood his meaning, and Lin Xiao was slightly stunned. Looking at the little girl who has always taken care of herself, at this time she is like a docile little rabbit, holding hands and coquettishly towards herself, Lin Xiao's heart seemed to have something jumping, her breathing was stagnant, she was stunned and motionless, and her expression was a little complicated when she looked at Yu Zijin.

Yu Zijin didn't notice Lin Xiao's abnormality, and stayed quietly on the side and waited for Lin Xiao's next step.

Lin Xiao laughed for a while, and couldn't help but stretch out the hand that was not being held and stroked Yu Zijin's head. The little girl's head felt fluffy to the touch, and she seemed to be a little in love, so she rubbed it twice, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "Okay, whatever you want." ”

When Bai Lishan came in, she saw such a picture, and saw the doting in Lin Xiao's eyes, and she was slightly surprised, "Ahem...... Am I here at the wrong time? ”

didn't expect someone to come in at this time, Yu Zijin was frightened by Bai Lishan's light cough, and instantly bounced in the opposite direction of Lin Xiao, perhaps because he was knocked into his abnormality, he felt a little embarrassed, a blush crawled up his cheeks, his hands had nowhere to put it, and finally picked up the chopsticks and pretended to be nothing, and took a big bite of vegetables.

"Sit down." On the other hand, Lin Xiao on the side, because he was paying attention to Yu Zijin, also didn't notice Bai Lishan, who had just entered the door, although his face barely showed abnormality, but the hand that was slowly withdrawn under the table, opened and closed slightly, and also secretly showed a trace of his gaffe.

Lin Xiao stretched out his hand and poured a cup of tea, lowered his head and took a sip, hiding Fang Cai's emotions, "Have you found it?" ”

Seeing that the atmosphere had returned to normal, Bai Lishan also sat down calmly, and after sorting out her thoughts, she said slowly, "I found a Gu pot in the bushes next to a listening room, according to my observation, the lid of the pot is covered with a thin layer of fine ash, it should have been touched by someone two days ago, and it has been hiding there since then. ”

"Where's the listening room?" Lin Xiao couldn't help frowning, her eyes were slight, as if she was thinking about something.

"By the courtyard where the lord of the city lives." Bai Lishan's expression was also solemn, a huge city lord's mansion, he could actually find the pot where the Gu worm lived next to the city lord's house, plus the old housekeeper who had been hit by the Half Moon Gu, everything became confusing.

"You asked me to come, did you expect that there were Gu in the City Lord's Mansion a long time ago?" As if thinking of something, Bai Lishan looked at Lin Xiao and asked.

"Just guessing." The reason why Lin Xiao asked Bai Lishan to go with him was indeed to find Gu poison, but it was mainly to verify another matter, and he didn't expect that the old housekeeper was also poisoned......

"Shi Yi."
