Outside the woods, it was already a mess, Shen Qingyan didn't do anything ruthlessly, just disturbed their vision, and the short-term sharp pain in their eyes only made them cover their eyes out of instinct, temporarily losing the ability to move.

And when these officers and soldiers rubbed their eyes and their sights recovered, the figures of Shen Qingyan and Ji Yinxue had already disappeared into this dense forest.

The soldiers looked at each other, but they didn't rush to catch up, but carefully reported to their boss and let the leader make a decision, after all, Shen Qingyan's handful of stones just now made them a mess, who knows what other means there are to catch up with people like this. People are life-saving.

The leading officer and soldier frowned and thought for a while, a touch of contemplation crossed his eyes, anyway, he just ran away, he just came to burn the village, so more is better than less........

Then the leader's eyes grunted, "All the villagers have been burned to death today, and no one has run out, you know?" ”

The eyes of those people looked at each other, and they suddenly understood their boss's decision, "I understand, the villain's injury was injured by the rude Diao people when he burned the village." ”

"Good." The leader smiled faintly, and there was a fierceness in his eyes, if anyone dared to reveal half a point, he would let him know the consequences.

And how could those officers and soldiers have the audacity to say it? After all, it was because of his own dereliction of duty that he let those two run out, if he didn't have the brains to shout out, not to mention the iron rice bowl in the yamen, if he lost his head, it would be a big deal.

And this is also in Shen Qingyan's arms. If she hadn't expected this, how could she have been so merciful as to leave those people's lives.

After all, only those who can't do harm to themselves are innocent people, and if they hurt their own interests or threaten themselves in the future, how can she leave a disaster.

After all, Shen Qingyan had never hesitated on this point. Although she will not kill innocents indiscriminately, she is not a kind person who can sacrifice herself to achieve other unrelated people.

In the woods, Shen Qingyan led the horse and Ji Yinxue side by side, and stroked the brown horse's head with his hand while walking, this guy hasn't eaten for a day.

"When you enter this dense forest, you are looking around, aren't you looking for the corpse of the eldest princess of Northern Qi?"

The corners of Miss Shen's mouth were slightly curved, and she couldn't help but joke at Ji Yinxue, her beautiful eyes were full of blind gossip.

"You are so attentive to others, aren't you the lover of the eldest princess of Northern Qi?"

Hearing this, the corners of Ji Yinxue's mouth twitched and stopped.

looked at Miss Shen lightly and then automatically ignored the latter sentence, grasped the key point of the previous sentence, and said to Miss Shen, "It's right that I'm looking for the eldest princess of Northern Qi, but how sure are you that the eldest princess of Northern Qi has become a corpse?" Perhaps, I'm looking for a big living person? ”

"The guards are all dead, you said that a delicate princess can survive."

Miss Shen tilted her head and smiled enchantingly, her eyes slightly passed through the place where Ji Yinxue was standing, looking behind him, and there seemed to be a deep meaning in her eyes. Even if it's not delicate, the princess of Northern Qi is also more auspicious........

"Why, it's cheap this time, one thousand taels, how about I find the body of the princess of Northern Qi for you."

Ji Yinxue raised her head and looked at Shen Qingyan, Miss Shen smiled, "Don't look at me like that, I don't know, I think you have taken a fancy to me." ”

"If you can find the body, I'll add another five hundred taels to you."

Ji Yinxue chuckled and said, his ears were clear, and he could now automatically ignore some of this woman's words........

"I still know what they were, and if I want to add five hundred taels."

Miss Shen blinked her big eyes, her lips slightly hooked.

He only received the news of the disappearance of the Northern Qi and his relatives here three days ago, but he came by the way to take a look, and this woman actually said that she could find the body for him? Do you know how they died? Is she a fairy? Or is she just killing people and burying corpses here?

Ji Yinxue raised her eyebrows and leaned slightly against a green tree, "Okay, if you can really find out, I'll add another five hundred taels to you." ”

It's interesting, it's really interesting.

"Deal."

Miss Shen smiled and snapped her fingers, and took the lead in walking towards the top of the rock. Dealing with rich people, she loves it!

Ji Yinxue was silent, followed closely behind Shen Qingyan, turned around, went up the stream, and walked past piles of rolling stones that flowed down from the landslide caused by the heavy rain.

Half an hour later, as expected, she found something abnormal, Miss Shen took a step forward and kicked the hand of a certain corpse exposed on the ground, "Oh, this should be it, do you want to take it out and take a look." ”

Miss Shen raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Yinxue, and a hint of a light smile crossed her narrow phoenix eyes.

Ji Yinxue looked at Miss Shen lightly, and said lukewarmly, "You are such a god, I would think that you killed people and buried corpses, so I only knew so much." ”

Ji Yinxue's eyes sank slightly, she received the news three days ago, but then she met this woman that afternoon.

Judging by the direction she came from, it was impossible for this woman to have time to kill people and bury corpses, and with his observation of this woman, she knew that the marriage between the eldest princess of Northern Qi and Western Qin was only known in his mouth just now.

Therefore, it was only less than an hour for her to learn the news, but it was really surprising that she could find the hiding place of the Northern Qi convoy so accurately at this moment.

Although there were already turbulent waves in her heart, Ji Yinxue still looked light and cloudy on her face, but there was a hint of playfulness in her eyes, and she looked at Shen Qingyan lightly.

"How did you do that?"

The corners of Miss Shen's mouth curled slightly and pointed to her head, "Oh, rely on this!" ”

The corners of Ji Yinxue's mouth twitched, and she was suddenly speechless again, you have a brain, right!

Seeing Ji Yinxue staring at herself motionlessly, Miss Shen raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly,

"Do you remember when the two of us first came in, we saw the corpses infected with the plague outside the village?"

Shen Qingyan gently leaned against a green bamboo, seeing these corpses that had already begun to decompose, his face did not change at all, and asked with a smile.

Ji Yinxue looked back and thought for a while, her pupils dilated, her whole body turned black, and she stenched....... Is that......

"From the death of the deceased, you can see that it was poisoned and died, the whole body smells, it has been less than two days since he died, but the corpse spots are patches, this is not a symptom of death from the plague. It looks like he's been poisoned by a corpse. ”

Shen Qingyan said slowly without hurrying, and his words were full of calmness. Then he looked up at the somewhat decomposed corpse in the exposed corner.

"And where did this corpse poison come from?

At first, I wondered if there was something wrong with this village, I didn't see the epidemic, and there were many new deaths due to corpse poisoning.

I was confused at first.

But I silently speculated in my heart that so many people could be infected at the same time, and the only thing they had in common was the water source.

And the damp and too soft ground underfoot indicates that the weather must have been raining continuously for the past few days.

I suspect that there may have been a number of people or a large number of animals who happened to be poisoned and died on this mountain, and the corpses fermented, and various toxins were built into a new kind of corpse poison.

After all, just two people, or animals, can't pose such a big threat, at least, not a living person can be infected with corpse poison just because of drinking water. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Qingyan smiled and looked at Ji Yinxue.

"And when I heard you talk about the princess of Northern Qi, everything suddenly had a reasonable explanation.

If it was the relatives of Northern Qi who were poisoned and then buried here. In the continuous heavy rain a few days ago, many corpses were washed away by the heavy rain, and they had already fermented.

The poison in themselves, the mold produced by the mold of the corpse, and the poison of the corpse itself are mixed in the water source and flows downstream, and the people in the village will naturally get sick when they drink water mixed with so many kinds of toxins. It's not a big deal to be the first few people who have almost a lot of resistance. ”

Miss Shen had a smile on the corner of her mouth, analyzing it in an orderly manner, her voice was like gurgling water, and her words were full of ease and calmness.

"Poisoned? This reason explains the corpse poison in Qinghe Village, but how do you explain this convoy of nearly 1,000 people who has the ability to poison all of them? ”

Ji Yinxue's eyes raised slightly, and she said lightly.........
