Chapter 106: Waiting Time
The water was poured on the stones, making a popping sound, and thick white smoke wafted out, choking the crowd.
"Ahem, what are you doing?" Li Yi was choked and roared angrily.
"Don't worry. Yexi glanced at him faintly and continued, "I already said that if you want to make the handprint visible, you can use this thing, lime. ”
"Lime?"
"What is lime?" for a moment everyone whispered again.
Nightshade picked up a large stone on the ground, and after watering it, it had exploded and dropped some white powder.
With a little force, the stone turned into powder in Yexi's hands. She continued to carry the powder to the place where Yu Wu was lying, and sprinkled the powder on the ground to gradually form a human figure, and the posture was exactly the same as Yu Wuyi just now.
Li Wenqiang asked the doubts in his heart, "This is what you call lime, didn't you say that you want to make the handprint on the dagger visible, what are you doing now?"
Yexi nodded, and after using up the lime in his hand, he replied, "I am now using lime to circle the position of Yu Wu's body with lime, in order to protect the first scene of the crime, now there is only one last step left, and I will be able to know who the murderer is tomorrow." ”
"What's missing?"
"Please also ask Elder Li to send someone to help me find a transparent jar. ”
Li Wenqiang didn't say anything, and asked people to look for it, and it didn't take long for a disciple to come with a transparent jar, which was different from transparent glass, this jar was thicker and not so clear, but for a backward era, this one was indeed good.
Nightshade took the jar and placed it on the table, the center of which was just on the chest of the lime-drawn humanoid. Then she put the lime in the jar and mixed it with a large jar of water until the dagger was gone.
The water and lime merged with each other and became cloudy, and Ye Xi turned over lightly, and a delicate porcelain vase appeared out of thin air in his hand.
She held the porcelain vase high so that everyone could see it, "This porcelain vase is a special elixir, it was given by chance by a mysterious old man who said that he was destined to give it to me, and he said that it was because the disciple who did not make the vessel always stole his wine to drink when he was young, so he specially researched it." He told me how to use it, and when it was used with lime water, it was just enough for people to have a handprint on something they had touched, to see who had stolen his wine, but I didn't expect to use it today to catch the murderer. ”
After speaking, Yexi opened the cap of the bottle, and a pure spiritual power suddenly emanated from the porcelain bottle, making the person who heard it suddenly feel refreshed and transparent.
Such a pure aura, as expected, is not an extraordinary thing, everyone is in an uproar, this Ye Bai actually has such a divine object!
Not to mention that such disciples were shocked, even an elder like Li Wenqiang, who had lived for a hundred years, had never seen an elixir with such pure aura, and he was also excited at the moment, and then thinking of the usage that Yexi said just now, he suddenly trembled even more excitedly.
At this moment, no one doubted the truth of Yexi's words, because if a young man didn't meet a master as he said, how could he have such a divine object!
"You, are you sure you want to use such a precious thing......"
"There's no way, in order to prove his innocence, he can only sacrifice such a divine object. "Yexi seems to be quite reluctant.
Li Wenqiang can also understand, after all, there is such a divine object, let alone a young man who has not gone through the world, even he, at the level of a veteran, also has the heart of hidden treasures. So he said, "You can keep the potion, and as for the murderer, we can think about it in the long run......"
"Elder Li, why are you doing this!" When Yu Xin heard this, he roared at Li Wenqiang.
After being roared by such a sharp roar, Li Wenqiang reacted, his statement seemed to be a bit too much, and it was not appropriate, and he was thinking about how to redeem it, when he saw that the young man poured the entire bottle of elixir into the jar without hesitation.
Li Wenqiang's whole person was suddenly distorted, and he actually poured the whole bottle into it!
Yexi held the empty bottle in her hand, plugged the stopper, and put it back in her arms.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard a burst of exclamations from everyone, and when Yexi looked back, he saw that the original turbid lime water had changed, and its color was slowly changing, and finally turned purple.
The lime is slowly decomposing, leaving a small layer of powder slowly precipitating.
Even Yexi herself didn't expect such an effect, she could only say that the timing was just right.
The corners of her mouth hooked, something flashed in Yexi's eyes, and she said in surprise, "Now you have also seen that the potion has changed, and now there is a small layer of powder floating, after a night's time, it will eventually smell separately according to the smell of different people, with the help of the potion, and precipitate on the dagger, and tomorrow it will be able to show the handprint." Looks like that old man really didn't lie to me!"
"Elder Li, now please give an order, select a few people to guard this jar, and the rest of the people will all go out, and no one will be allowed to approach here tonight except for the guards!"
"Snort, are you really useful like this, shouldn't it be some kind of trick again?" Li Yi sneered disdainfully.
Yexi glanced at him coldly, "Whether it's useful or not, tomorrow morning, I will definitely know." ”
"What if this is just your ploy to keep everyone focused on this jar, and you can take the opportunity to escape tonight?"
"If you are not at ease, you can let Elder Li personally take me into custody, I will definitely not leave the academy for half a step tonight, or are you also worried about Elder Li?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Yideng was a little panicked, he was dissatisfied with such a disrespectful word to the patriarch, who dared to say that this Ye Bai was really hateful, and he rejected him like this!
"Since it's not, then Senior Brother Li Yi shouldn't have any doubts. Yexi chuckled, but there was not the slightest hint of a smile in those eyes.
"No!" Li Yi spit out two words stiffly.
"That's good, now ask Elder Li to personally select people, so as not to be said to be that I have done something. Ye Xi said to Li Wenqiang, after speaking, Ye Xi suddenly thought of something, and continued, "By the way, Yuan Feng is my master, if you are worried that my master will protect me and will make a hindrance for me, please go to the hall of Zhengyang Palace, and my master will also accompany you there." ”
Li Wenqiang nodded, the crazy old man was not happy, and then Yexi gave him a look to show him that he was at ease, and after Li Wenqiang was present and selected a few people at random, he followed the rest of the people to leave this place, and ordered that no one should pass by here in the ten meters around tonight, let alone approach here.
Yu Xin was unwilling, she stayed outside the door and refused to leave, and Yexi said, "In order for you to see the murderer with your own eyes, you and this senior sister next to you will be with us tonight, right?"
Hearing this, Yu Xin and Housewarming were both vigilant, Housewarming itself was a violent temper, and was about to have a seizure, but when they saw Li Wenqiang on the side, they could only snort coldly.
Seeing this, Ye Xi chuckled, "Don't think about it, you two, I'm with Elder Li tonight, and I won't have any intentions against you." ”
After listening to Yexi's explanation, the two slowly quieted down.
"You ghost cubs, no one can leave the Zhengyang Hall tonight, if anyone dares to approach here, I can't clear up the misunderstanding, see how I 'serve' you!"
When everyone who followed and left heard this, their backs were cold, and they couldn't help but shudder when they heard the 'waiting' that the crazy old man said. Just kidding, Elder Feng has always been a guy who doesn't play cards according to common sense, who wants his service, unless it's his own itchy skin.
For the crazy old man Li Wenqiang, he asked Yexi again, "If you can't show your handprints tomorrow, what should you do?"
"If you can't catch the murderer, please also ask Elder Li to hand me over to the Yu family and let them dispose of it. Yexi replied confidently.
Hearing this, Li Wenqiang nodded, and after seeing that everyone had left here one after another, he ordered the four people who were left behind to guard here, and closed the gate tightly, before preparing to lead Yexi and out.
When everyone went to the Zhengyang Palace, the crazy old man sat aside angrily, ignoring them, and they didn't dare to run around, they were all secretly discussing the young man named Ye Bai, whether everything he did was useful or not.
"Qian, do you think this Ye Bai's method is really useful? There really is such a miraculous elixir in the world. It didn't take long to sit down, and Xiao Lingxuan asked Xiahou Qian in a low voice.
"I don't know, maybe there is, this Ye Bai always feels a little mysterious, maybe he really has that ability. Xia Houqian said softly, there was no other expression on his warm and jade-like face, but something was clearly crossed in his eyes.
At the same time, on the other side, there was also someone discussing this topic, and the person had a gloomy face, quietly listening to the person in his ear, and did not speak, but there was always a dark light in his sharp eyes.
The guard standing beside him said, "Second Highness, you say, can this Ye Bai really succeed, if he really has such ability, we can bring him over and use it for us......"
Before he finished speaking, Xiahou raised his hand and signaled him not to continue, "This person is not very clear now, and he can't rush to woo him, otherwise if he had already taken refuge in Xiahou Qian's side, if he pretended to agree, for us, it would be worth the loss, Xiahou Qian's wolf in sheep's clothing, hmph, it's not so easy to deal with." ”
"That's what you're saying. ”
"Let's take a look first, when necessary, this person can't stay ......" Xiahou closed his eyes carefully, but the words in his mouth were secretly murderous.
Time passed quietly in people's discussions, and in the blink of an eye, it was already night, during which everyone took Bigu Dan to maintain their physical strength without eating.
Almost everyone here is discussing this strange thing, speculating about whether the handprint on the dagger will be visible tomorrow morning in order to catch the murderer.
Li Yi, who was sitting in the corner of the main hall, was unusually calm, he just listened quietly to the discussion of the crowd, and did not talk to anyone.
The person who opened the door before, who had been a witness, stood quietly next to the crazy old man, with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.
