The weather is getting warmer, and although it is still cold in the room, the ice in the ice basin has begun to melt, and the boiled water has spread the bottom of the basin.

Sun Ying uncovered the white cloth, revealing Qingyue's burnt black face, her facial features were burned in one place, and she couldn't tell it, only her chin was forcibly removed during the autopsy, and she didn't push it back, and her mouth was wide open at this time, and you could see the black ash in her mouth.

Sun Ying took the slender bamboo tweezers and opened the wound that had been cut open and had not yet been stitched up, from the throat of the deceased to the abdomen.

There was no blood in his abdomen at this point, and there was a shallow, dry dark purple mark that snaked from his throat to his stomach.

Han Changwan bent down and looked at it carefully: "This, what is it?" ”

Sun Ying took the slender bamboo tweezers and flicked it back and forth on the purple-black traces, he opened his mouth, and was about to say something, when his face suddenly changed, and he replied with some uncertainties: "It's like, something scratched, and the blood marks left behind." ”

"What can you do so deep?" Han Changdui asked.

Yao Qi looked at it for a long time, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, thinking of the lower stomach tube in the hospital, and then thinking of the wax pill, and suddenly said loudly: "My lord, could it be that someone controlled Qingyue and used something to poke the wax pill into his stomach." ”

Han Changdui raised his head in surprise.

Sun Ying shook his head: "No, there are no traces of struggle on Qing Yue's body, and," he carefully brushed the blood marks again: "This trace is left after death, but the wax pill was found in Qing Yue's abdomen, how could a dead person swallow the wax pill into his abdomen." ”

Yao Qi also pursed his lips and nodded in distress: "That's right, then, if this wax pill was swallowed by Qing Yue on her own initiative, then what's the matter with the blood stains?" ”

Sun Ying looked at the blood mark carefully: "When the autopsy was performed just now, there was no such blood mark. He paused slightly, and then settled down and said: "However, this injury is very similar to the hidden weapon cold ice needle left, the humble official has examined a corpse, and there are scars left by the ice needle on the body, but I don't want this scar to be in the body, and the postmortem injury caused by this cold ice needle will only appear after the corpse is moved from a warm place to a cold place for a few hours, which is extremely secretive." ”

Han Changdui's expression froze, and he frowned slightly: "This official has also heard of the secret weapon of the Cold Ice Needle, which is a family heirloom of the Gong family, the Gong family established a family in the north of Youzhou, and has always been friendly with the Wuluo household, and the children of the Gong family have never appeared in the capital, how can the Gong family's secret weapon leave traces on the two palace Taoists?" ”

His face changed slightly, and he looked at Sun Ying and said, "Let's examine the other three carefully to see if there are any similar scars." ”

Sun Ying's expression was also a little serious, and he should claim that it was, took the autopsy object, and began to carefully examine it again.

Yao Qi had also heard of the secret weapon of the Ice Needle, but she didn't have the opportunity to see it, but this time it was good, but she saw the scars left by this hidden weapon, she probed her brain to see Sun Ying's autopsy, thinking if she could find a Cold Ice Needle out, so that she could take it back to study and study.

The Gong >Gong

As soon as Han Changwan turned his head, he saw Yao Qi looking forward to it, and he secretly laughed.

It's really not like a girl, and the girls next to her love rouge gouache and beautiful clothes, this one is good, and she is interested in these swords, guns, swords, halberds, hidden weapons, poisons, or something.

He curled his lips and smiled: "The ice needle has no shadow silk, and it is called the two major secret weapons in this world, only."

It's a pity that I haven't had a chance to stand up and compare. ”

Yao Qi sneered, and his attitude was very modest: "The cold ice needle is as thin as a cow's hair, and it can be sent together with ten thousand needles, and at most three or five shadowless filaments can be put together, which can't be beaten." ”

Han Changwan was very surprised, people who practice martial arts always want to learn the most profound kung fu in the world, making it the most unpredictable weapon in the world, and always want to defeat the invincible opponents in the world, but none of them admit defeat before they fight.

He became more and more curious, tilted his head and smiled: "Why, this hasn't happened yet, so I will first grow the morale of others to destroy my own prestige, Yao joined the army, this is not like your style." ”

Yao Qi grinned and laughed dryly: "The lower official is a small official, how can there be any majesty, don't laugh at it." ”

Han Changwan looked at Yao Qi at this time, and felt that this style looked like a person.

Liu Shengsheng, the general of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army, is like this, he never competes with others, and he never fights with others, and he seems to be a harmonious person.

At first, he couldn't figure out how such a harmonious person could protect the saint to fight his way out of the sea of corpses and blood, and finally ascend to the position of the Ninety-Five.

Later, one year, there was a rebellion in Jiannan Road, and Liu Shengsheng was ordered to lead the troops to help quickly, and he saw the ruthless appearance of the harmonious and decisive man.

When Longyoudao fought side by side with Yao Qi, he inexplicably felt that Yao Qi was like a person, and this time he looked at her blind clumsiness and Taoguang's obscure appearance, which was even more similar.

Yes, it's like a person trained by Liu Shengsheng.

He smiled tentatively: "When Yao joined the army in the Beiya Forbidden Army, he could recognize General Liu. ”

Yao Ji turned his head and said with a smile as usual: "I recognize, it's hateful when I was training." ”

Han Changwan raised his eyebrows and sighed softly.

This is said very cleverly, neither evading the question nor saying half the truth.

It's a coincidental thing, it's a slippery loach.

When he was thinking nonsense, Yao Qi's voice came again: "My lord, this person is dead, what are you doing with a hidden weapon, isn't this a waste of an ice needle?" ”

Han Changwan smiled and said, "Maybe I'm afraid that people won't die." ”

Yao Qi pursed his lips and sighed: "Everyone has been burned to charcoals, and they can't die thoroughly, is this to cheat the corpse?" ”

After saying a few words, Sun Ying re-examined the other three corpses, and found the same scars on the same parts, which had not appeared in the autopsy.

It's just a pity that these people only have scars in their bodies, but no trace of the ice needle has been found.

Han Changdui was extremely surprised, his long eyebrows frowned slightly, and he asked in disbelief: "The scars are in the body, but the cold ice needle is gone?" ”

Sun Ying said in a deep voice: "Yes, all four of them are like this. ”

Han Changdui settled down: "What are the small wounds on the corpse?" ”

Sun Ying shook his head in distress: "The body burned is so serious, I can't see what it looks like on the surface, and naturally I can't see the wound." ”

Han Changwan sighed softly: "Let's put the autopsy thing aside first, the Qingxu Hall should have been cleaned up, let's go, let's go and take a look." ”

The Qingxu Palace has indeed been carefully surveyed and searched

The things that came were left outside the hall, what burned down candlestick screens, Hu bed food tables, broken Sanqing statues, vases and lampshades, purple gold copper sheets picked out, and a bunch of black things that could not be distinguished, all of them were full of large pieces, occupying most of the square in front of the Qingxu Palace.

The afternoon sun hung brightly and high, and these things left the dark and sneaky place, and suddenly saw the light, as if they were a little overwhelmed, and let out a low whining sound with the passing wind.

Under the open and warm sun, Han Changdui walked slowly with his hands behind his back, carefully inspecting suspicious objects one by one, listening to the internal guard next to him explain something in a low voice.

A lot of purple gold copper pieces have indeed been found, but they are too broken to form a complete Dan furnace.

There was a pile of black things piled up next to the purple gold copper sheet, and Han Changwan walked over and bent down to check.

The inner guard hurriedly followed, and said in a low voice: "My lord, there is saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur here, and there is a lot of it. ”

Han Changwan was stunned for a moment, looked at the dark in front of him, and asked lightly, "How many Dan furnaces were there in the Dan room?" ”

Neiwei said: "Two seats, one big and one small, the big one is more than two people high, hundreds of pounds in weight, and the small one is only half a person high, and it is also much lighter. ”

Han Changwan narrowed his eyes: "Even if you use that big Dan furnace, you won't need so much saltpeter charcoal and sulfur. ”

The inner guard nodded: "Yes." ”

Han Changdu's mind turned, if it weren't for the use of a large Dan furnace, even if the small Dan furnace was blown up, it would not have caused such serious consequences.

He instructed the internal guard: "Go and check the entry and exit accounts of saltpeter, charcoal and sulfur in this Qingxu Palace, the amount of each time, who purchased it, what is the difference between this time and the previous one, and who will do the daily cleaning and repair in the Qingxu Palace?" He looked at the beam on the ground in the distance, and stared for a moment: "I look at the Qingxu Hall that seems to have been re-powdered, go and check when it was powdered, and what kind of person it is." ”

The internal guard was full of suspicion, but he didn't dare to ask more, he should only claim that it was.

Yao Qi heard clearly beside him, and walked over and asked in a low voice, "My lord suspects that the person who repaired and cleaned the beam did something on the beam?" ”

Han Changwan sighed: "There was such a suspicion before, but now that the Gong family is involved, I am a little less sure, check it first." ”

Yao Qi nodded: "My lord, Xia Guan has seen that the Medicine King recorded a recipe in the "Dan Sutra", which combines saltpeter sulfur and charcoal according to the appropriate amount, which is very easy to ignite and explode. ”

Han Changdui said: "I know, after the recipe has been improved and perfected several times, it is now the gunpowder used in the army, I understand what you mean, the recipe of gunpowder is held in the hands of the imperial court, and it is not passed on, but the "Dan Jing" of the king of medicine can be bought everywhere, maybe there are clever people, you can also improve this recipe, and prepare gunpowder, but the saltpeter and sulfur used in gunpowder are purchased by the imperial court in a unified manner, and the control is very strict, and it is not allowed to flow into the people. ”

He rubbed his eyebrows, looked at Yao Qi and said, "There are not many people who can do this, and there are even fewer in Beijing, you can investigate this matter." ”
