Chapter 359: Dead Man
"Big brother, you say it's weird, it's raining when you say it's raining, damn ......," said the thinner of the two men.
"Kuroko, don't complain, we can still find a place to hide from the rain, tonight here will be one night, and when the weather clears tomorrow, we will continue to hurry." The man called Big Brother said.
The man, Kuroko, nodded, and the two of them took out the dry food from the salute and ate it, then lay down and began to rest.
Nan Liyan and Gu Annuan had been paying careful attention to the movements here, and seeing that the two men were asleep, Nan Liyan whispered to Jinmo and Yinchuan: "You take turns keeping vigil tonight, you must be cautious." ”
Yinchuan and Jinmo nodded, although Yinchuan is a little unreliable in small things, there will definitely not be a trace of sloppiness in big things.
"Do you think there's something wrong with those two men?" Gu Annuan asked softly.
"No, it's just that we're careful to make the 10,000-year-old ship, so we'd better be careful." Nan Liyan shook his head and said.
Gu Annuan nodded, leaned on the stone pillar on the side and began to rest.
Nan Liyan said to Gu Annuan a little apologetically: "An Nuan, I'm afraid I'm going to have to wronged you tonight, if it weren't for me, ......"
Gu An glanced at Nan Liyan and said, "What's wrong with this, besides, this is what I asked to come, what does it have to do with you." ”
Nan Liyan smiled, she knew that Gu Annuan was afraid that she would blame herself, so she was comforting him, Nan Liyan walked to Gu Annuan and sat down, broke Gu Annuan's head to his chest and leaned against him and said, "Sleep like this, sleep comfortably like this." ”
"But......" Gu Annuan struggled for a while, but it was useless.
"There's nothing but it, go to sleep, you're tired after so many journeys today." Nan Liyan forcefully asked Gu Annuan to rest on his chest.
Gu Annuan struggled to no avail, so she had to give up and start to rest.
Jin Mo and Yinchuan took turns on duty, carefully observing the two men, and they didn't see any movements of the two men until dawn.
The sun has come out after dawn, Gu Annuan and Nan Liyan decided to hurry up and rush back to the capital, tomorrow is her third dynasty to return to the door, and there are still many things to prepare for going back today.
Nan Liyan and Gu Annuan had already packed up and were about to leave, but the two men were still lying down and not moving.
Jin Mo frowned and muttered, "Didn't you say that you were in a hurry early in the morning?" Why can't I get up until now? ”
Jin Mo's words attracted Gu Annuan's attention, these two men were obviously in a hurry, and they would definitely not waste time here.
Gu Annuan glanced at Yinchuan, Yinchuan nodded knowingly and walked in the direction of the two men.
Yinchuan walked in and touched the man with his hand, but the man didn't move at all, and Yinchuan pushed the thin man named Kuroko and still didn't move.
Yinchuan stretched out his hand to probe the arteries of the sunspot, touched the arteries of the strong man, and probed the snorts of the two people, and found that the two men had no breath.
Yinchuan shook his head at Gu Annuan and said, "It's dead." ”
Gu Annuan frowned, approached the place where the two men were lying, and then investigated, confirming that it was already dead.
Gu Annuan took out a set of silver needles from his sleeve and stabbed the silver needles into the throats of the two men, which was indeed poisoned.
"An Nuan, what's wrong? Is it poisoning? Nan Lixian asked.
Gu Annuan nodded, handed over the used silver needles to Yinchuan to clean up, and put away the remaining silver needles and said, "Yes, it's poisoning." ”
The silver needle pricked the throat, the silver needle was black, the complexion was also blue-black, the nails were blue-gray, and it was obvious that the arsenic poisoned and died.
"It's arsenic poisoning." Gu An said warmly.
"But yesterday they ate here in good condition, and we can't poison them, how did they get killed?" Jin Mo wondered.
Gu Annuan frowned when she heard Jinmo's words, and looked at the salute brought by the two men, yesterday she saw that the food of the two people was taken out of the package, and it must have been carried with her.
Gu Annuan walked to the two of them and opened the packages of the two, and sure enough, there was some food in them, and after trying them one by one with a silver needle, he showed a smile that was really like this.
"It's very simple," Gu Annuan got up and patted the straw on his body and said, "Someone poisoned the food in their salute in advance, so they ate the food they brought last night and died again." ”
Loneliness asked, "Who is that?" Nothing to do? ”
Gu Annuan glanced at Jinmo with the eyes of a fool and said: "How do I know, I am not an immortal, these are all local officials' business, let's go back to the capital if we have nothing to do, when passing by the town, Jinmo went to the police, and said that someone here was poisoned, and we can't care about the rest of the matter." ”
The reason why Gu Annuan said this is because this matter has little to do with them in the first place, and second, if someone dies, someone naturally has to investigate, since this incident happened here, it should naturally be investigated by local officials, and it is pointless for them to forcibly intervene.
When Gu Annuan and they passed through the town, Jinmo went to the county government to report to the official, and was almost detained as a suspect, Jinmo had no choice but to explain, but the people didn't listen, Jinmo took out the token of the imperial guard, and the county government let Jinmo leave.
It was already afternoon since Gu Annuan and they returned to the capital, Gu Annuan went out all night and did not return, and Nanying in the house was worried to death.
"Miss, you're finally back." As soon as Nanying saw Gu Annuan coming back, she breathed a long sigh of relief, it's okay.
"Well, it rained heavily yesterday, so I couldn't move forward, so I was delayed for some time." Gu Annuan knew that Nanying must be worried, so she opened her mouth to explain the reason.
***
"Miss, do you have anything to prepare when you come back tomorrow?" In the wedding room, Nanying said while packing up Gu Annuan's things.
"Take out the Longyuan Sword in my private vault and give it to An Ning tomorrow as a return gift." Gu Annuan said lightly while drinking tea.
"Long Yuan, but Miss, that's ......," Nan Ying said in surprise.
"It's okay, An Ning has wanted it for a long time, but I'm reluctant to give it, but I don't need it, so it's better to find a suitable owner for it." Gu Annuan said.
Nan Ying nodded, and took the key to the treasury to get the Long Yuan Sword.
This Longyuan sword was passed down to her by her master, and it is said to be one of the ten great swords of ancient times.
Gu Anning had always wanted it before, but she never gave it, first, because she was reluctant, and secondly, she couldn't find a chance to when.
The remaining gifts from Princess Chu and others have been prepared, Gu Annuan is not worried about Nan Liyan's ability to do things, just go back with Nan Liyan tomorrow.
"Princess, the prince said to let you go to the front yard to see, do you need to prepare something."
Gu Annuan was thinking that a maid would come to ask Gu Annuan.
Gu Annuan: "No need, just leave everything to the prince." ”
Maid: "Then the slave and maid went to repay the king." ”
Gu Annuan nodded.
The next day, Gu Annuan was called by Nanying early in the morning, although he was going back to his home today, he also needed to dress up.
The first cannot lose the face of the royal family, and the second cannot lose the face of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
Nanying combed Gu Annuan with a flying cloud meteor bun today, which was virtuous and dignified, and looked gentle and petty.
