When Hao Se took people to the cave to arrest people, in Feiyu Garden, Jing Yi and Rong Sui sat opposite each other at the agate table in the courtyard, and there was a poppy bowl on the table.

"The result?" Jing Yi's slender fingers tapped on the tabletop, and his face was still slightly pale.

He was too seriously injured in the withdrawal formation, but fortunately, with Rong Sui, a jack-of-all-trades, he was able to recover a lot in one day. But even so, you can see at a glance that there are injuries on your body. So when Hao Se came to borrow someone today, he avoided it.

Rong Sui glanced at the poppy bowl, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "I took it back and studied it carefully, if this bowl is used for a long time, it will make the user chronically poisoned." But ......"

Jing Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't seem surprised.

"But this poison is very special, it is not to make people sick or die or anything like that. Rather, it will make people gradually addicted to the body after long-term exposure, and finally the mind will be controlled, similar to the consequences of smoking hibiscus flowers. ”

Jing Yi raised his eyes and was slightly surprised: "You said yes, the hibiscus flower in the previous dynasty?" ”

A hibiscus flower, he knows. In the records of the previous dynasty, a certain family at that time wanted to use this soldier to capture the minister of the court without blood, but was unexpectedly discovered by a female official of the previous dynasty, thus preventing a turmoil.

However, the flower was later controlled by the Tai Hospital, and it was used as an anesthetic to treat the wound.

Rong Sui nodded, his expression slightly condensed: "That's right, but this poison is more hidden, and it is also very different from Ah Hibiscus Flower, I have checked many ancient books, and finally found the record in the secret records of the Miao Yi clan that have disappeared." ”

The look of surprise in Jing Yi's eyes was even stronger.

Miao stunned?

He also knows this. The Miao Clan is mysterious, good at witchcraft, and is very evil. In the records of the previous dynasty, there are two major events related to the Miao Yi people.

The first one happened in the Tang family, the head of the gate valve at that time.

It is said that a certain generation of the Tang family, during which they traveled and made friends accidentally, fell into the Tao of a priest from the Miao Yi clan, and was taken away from their souls. Since then, the high priest has survived as a member of the Tang family, and has continued to exchange his soul for the best son of the next generation through evil magic before the end of his life. And so on and so forth, and lived for many generations.

It wasn't until he met the two most talented sons in the family lineage, recognized his true colors and successfully broke the game, that this evil thing ended.

It was so appalling and supernatural that it was not reported. It is only recorded in the royal secrets.

The second is related to the royal family.

At that time, a certain emperor was too ambitious and took the wrong path. invited people from the Miao Clan to help him train an army that wanted to dominate the continent with evil magic and secret methods. It's just that this matter was later stirred up by the prince and the little prince.

Seeing that Jing Yi was thinking, Rong Sui slowed down his speech.

"If I'm not mistaken, this poppy bowl must have used medicine, a medicine made from puppet fragrant flowers unique to the Miao people, mixed with the clay from which the porcelain was fired. But this drug needs human flesh as an introduction to become poisonous. And the reason why it is made into a bowl is because the poison needs to be under heat in order to slowly evaporate. ”

"Therefore, if people use this kind of bowl for food for a long time, they will be chronically poisoned, and the body will become dependent. So, how is the spirit controlled? With a bowl? Jing Yi's eyes, like ice.

Rong Sui shook his head: "No, this bowl is just poisoned." It has been recorded that if you want to control the spirit of a poisoned person, you need something else, maybe medicine, maybe something else, such as sounds, music, or even some pictures. This is a very vague account, and I don't know. ”

Jing Yi's fingers continued to tap on the table, and he didn't answer again, as if he was thinking about Rong Sui's words.

After a long time, he spoke again: "It seems that there is someone who wants to control the important ministers of the court through the way of the poppy bowl, so as to achieve some of his goals." ”

Just like the hibiscus cake in the past, it is also different.

Rong Sui was not surprised, and nodded, this kind of speculation is naturally the most likely and reasonable.

"That Miao Yi clan, I remember, seems to be in the territory of Beibei Kingdom." Jing Yi frowned.

Beibei is Rong Sui's hometown.

"That's right. The Miao people are very mysterious, good at Gu, good at poison, good at witchcraft. After the previous dynasty, it has been hidden. It is said that in recent years, it has been haunted near the sacred mountain in the depths of the Kunlun Mountains at the junction of Beibei and Tianchen. The sacred mountain is like a fairyland, always appearing and disappearing out of thin air. Rong Sui added.

These are recorded in the secrets of the royal family of the former Chaonanfeng Country. The current Kyushu was formed by the unification of the continent by the Nanfeng Country. Therefore, the members of the royal family basically know some of the royal secrets of the previous dynasty.

Jing Yi lowered his eyelashes and pondered, his long sword eyebrows pressed against his eyes, a little heavy.

"Then, will the person behind the scenes be His Royal Highness King An, the second prince?" Rong Sui opened his mouth, and Zhang Shangshu of the household department was the uncle of King An.

At present, the emperor has not yet set up a crown prince, and the princes are fighting openly and secretly, and they are all cultivating their own forces.

However, the emperor had fifteen sons, but now there are less than six. Some of the princes who died died young, and some were calculated by other brothers.

But no one knew that there were seven princes in it, all of whom were killed by Jing Yi.

The method of killing is very subtle and ruthless. But people can't find the person behind the scenes.

Rong Sui glanced at Jing Yi and sighed slightly, but compared to what they did to Jing Yi at the beginning, what is it, they can only take the blame.

In that kind of childhood, Jing Yi has the temperament that is hot on the outside and cold on the inside.

Jing Yi is soaked in bitter water in the nest of wealth, and trapped in a cage on the golden roof.

has an innate dignity, but is forced by the wind, frost and sword day by day, so that he has developed a cheeky and uninhibited appearance, but he is lonely and lonely to the bone marrow inside.

Such a person, once he gets a little warmth, will be rewarded a thousand times over.

For example, the one in the palace, Jing Yi has almost become a universal knife for him over the years, and has done too much for him.

It's just that since Jing Yi came back from Xirong, his body seems to have softened a little. He has not been able to figure out why.

Even this reason, Jing Yi himself doesn't know.

Even that doodoo has become an unsolved mystery.

Rong Sui sighed lightly and stopped thinking about this.

"No," Jing Wei took the bowl and rubbed it carefully, his tone was affirmative, "King An is the person behind the underground affairs of the other courtyard, but he doesn't know the real secret of this bowl. He just used this profiteering bowl to make money to support his private army. ”

This bowl, which is worth a thousand gold, claims to be able to prolong life, nourish beauty and other effects. Because of scarcity, limited supply. Almost everyone in Shengdu is sought after by dignitaries, and they may not be able to buy it if they line up with silver.

Rong Sui was a little surprised, but since Jing Yi said so, that was the case. Jing Yi has his own channels to know the reason why King An doesn't know. He can be so sure, of course, there is sufficient reason and evidence. He was not interested in learning about this process.

"That?" Rong Sui frowned, if King An was not the person behind the scenes, it would be even more complicated.

"The people behind the scenes are related to Yannan." Jing Yi hesitated to speak.

The news of his family's Night Soul Hall is never wrong, and King An has no idea of the true use of the poppy bowl.

Someone behind the scenes provided King An with the secret method of making poppy bowls. The small amount of information found so far shows that the poppy bowl and the people behind the scenes are inextricably linked with Yannan.

It's just that why Yannan Shizi also appeared in the underground of the other courtyard, it seems that Shizi doesn't know much about this, and his motives are very strange.

Although the people behind the scenes must be inseparable from Yan Nan, he suspects that even Yan Nan is not the real person behind the scenes.

This matter should have something to do with the current Beibei State.

However, he has no evidence for this, just an intuition based on his long-standing judgment of things.

Rong Sui didn't ask anymore, and instead paid attention to Jing Yi's injury.

"I said Jing Yi, what kind of reason will make you temporarily withdraw from the formation." Rong Sui stretched out his hand and checked Jing Yi's pulse, "It's so badly injured." ”

Last night, Jing Yi came back, seriously injured all over his body, Xia Feng pulled him up from the bed, scolded and scolded in his mouth, and shouted that His Highness was crazy again.

As soon as he asked, he learned that His Highness had temporarily withdrawn the formation.

As for the reason, Xia Feng didn't say.

Jing Yi was rarely silent for a moment, and said with some annoyance: "The dog has come into my formation." ”

Rong Sui was stunned for a while, not too understanding.

Jing Yi had a dark face and told him about what had happened, and he seemed to be quite angry with himself.

"Jing Yi, I don't know you anymore." Rong Sui stared at Jing Yi with a somewhat complicated look, "You have never been interested in anyone. And never change the plan because of whom. For you, he is a person who has only met a few times. ”

Jing Yi looked at Rong Sui, with a slight confusion in his eyes: "Rong Sui, don't say you don't believe it, even I don't believe it, I think I may really be crazy." I actually missed the best opportunity to get rid of Yannan Shizi because of a funny dog. ”

Rong Sui glanced at Jing Yi for a while, and laughed: "You shouldn't have a habit of breaking sleeves." Having said that, after so many years, I have never seen you close to any woman. ”

Jing Yi slapped him over: "Lao Tzu is not a broken sleeve." If Lao Tzu really broke his sleeves, do you think you can protect your innocence now. ”

Rong Sui just drank a sip of tea, and immediately choked, and Jun's face turned red.

"Lord, every day the early bird flutters its wings, and only loves the high slope and steep peak. Why, aren't you? Jing Yi said it as a matter of course, without any shame.

"Ahem, ahem."

Rong Sui was so shocked by these fierce words that he coughed again and again, and his ears were slightly red.

has known Jing Yi for so many years, even if he has long been accustomed to this person's uninhibited discourse, he still can't help but break his work.

Jing Yi's words always make people a little uncatchable.

But in fact, he was just joking, and he didn't really think that Jing Yi had a habit of breaking sleeves.

It's just that Jing Yi's behavior this time is indeed a little weird.

Jing Yi looked at Rong Sui's embarrassed appearance, smiled, and explained kindly: "To be honest, I don't know why. But I was at that moment, and I didn't want to do it. ”

As he spoke, his mood became a little low, and he suddenly remembered his trance-like and endless sad feelings when the life and death array was activated.

That feeling, desolation permeated the whole world.

It's as if the whole world has been lost.

"Rong Sui, since I came back from Xirong, I have always had some strange dreams, and I can't even see what is in the dream. At the beginning of the dream, the mood was very, very happy, a joy that I had never experienced before. But every time I woke up, I was sad, sad, like I had lost the whole world. ”

"Rong Sui, am I sick?" Jing Yi lowered his head.

"Haven't you been to Sijon to check?" Rong Sui rubbed his eyebrows, he was also very puzzled about Jing Yi's situation, but he was helpless.

"I have checked it many times, but there is no result." Jing Yi sighed, the news that he couldn't even find out in the Night Soul Hall must have been deliberately erased by someone.

"Could it be that Hauser has something to do with Xijon?" Rong Sui's heart moved.

Jing Yi shook his head, "The Night Soul Hall has checked and confirmed that he has never been to Xirong, and he has never had any intersection with my past. ”

However, when he saw Hao Se, he had a feeling that he wanted to tease, so what's going on.

Perhaps, this dog monster is really funny.

Rong Sui frowned.

The first time he saw Hao Se, he also seemed to have a faint sense of familiarity.

That feeling, to be specific, seems to be more intimate and distressed, which makes him involuntarily have a desire to protect.

Yes, the intimacy and protection in the bones.

The two were silent, each thinking about something.

"By the way, I heard that Hao Se borrowed your Feiyuwei to take off the Xiangquan Courtyard and the cave today, as the Shaoyin of Shengdu Mansion, he naturally wants to investigate this matter, what are you going to do about it?"

Jing Yi rubbed his eyebrows and beckoned Xia Feng to come over.

"Go, bring my dog."
