"Shizi, there is poison on the medicine bowl."

At the same time as the mechanical sound, it was the voice of Zhou Yan's guards.

Lin Xing immediately came back to his senses, thinking of the mechanical sound just now, he said no wonder, the task was to find out the cause of Zhao Yi's death, and the guards found out that the bowl was poisoned, which proved that Zhao Yi was poisoned, so he would complete the task.

In front of Zhou Yan, Lin Xing didn't check what the next task was, she accepted a hundred points, then returned to her senses and took the bowl in the guard's hand, and asked, "Is this bowl poisonous, or is every bowl poisonous?" ”

"Every bowl is poisonous." The guard replied truthfully.

"In this way, poison is in medicine." Lin Xing turned around and called the little servant sent by Uncle Zhong, "Do you know who boiled the master's decoction?" ”

The little servant thought carefully, "The decoction and medicine before the master's death were all boiled in the kitchen and sent over. ”

After speaking, he seemed to think of something again, and quickly added: "That's not right! At the beginning of this year, when the old man was sick, the medicine was indeed boiled in the big kitchen and sent over, but just a month before the old man died, the old man said that the soup and medicine in the big kitchen were boiled and then sent over, which was too laborious, so he changed it to a small kitchen to boil it himself. ”

"How often does the master's medicine bowl change?" Lin Xing handed the medicine bowl in his hand to him, "Do you remember when this bowl was used?" ”

"The villain doesn't remember." The little maid said, looking up at her, "Later, the master's decoction was all in charge of you, madam." ”

Lin Xing was speechless for a while.

At that time, the original owner was still serving Zhao Yi, but Lin Xing did not have a specific memory of that time.

The only thing that is certain is that the poison in the decoction was definitely not from the original owner, otherwise Zhao Yi would not have been able to hand over the Bird Feather Seal Letter to her.

Waving his hand to let the little guy go down, Lin Xing sighed.

Zhou Yan leaned over and asked, "Does Mrs. Sister-in-law know who has been exposed to decoction during that time?" ”

"If I knew, I wouldn't have to be so distressed." Lin Xing smiled bitterly, weighed the bowl in his hand, and said, "If I didn't believe that I hadn't been drugged, I'm afraid even I would have to suspect that it was me." ”

Since they couldn't find anything, they simply went back to their homes, and before leaving, Zhou Yan asked the guards to go to the Yuzhou Mansion to send people to take care of all the things here, and no one was allowed to move.

They got into the carriage and returned along the road they had come, but halfway through they heard a quarrel outside, and the guard asked, "Master, the road ahead is blocked, but do you want to go another way?" ”

Zhou Yan glanced at Lin Xing, who was still in a daze, and said, "Then let's change it." ”

Lin Xing didn't know what was going on outside, she was pretending to be in a daze, checking the content on the panel in front of her.

On the panel, the system asks: "The points have arrived, please choose to accumulate points to exchange for the channel key, or, light up the skill star." ”

Is this still a choice? Of course, it was the key to accumulate points to exchange for the channel and go home, Lin Xing muttered in her heart,

The panel shows that the points have been deposited into the account, and then a task prompt pops up.

"Mandatory Mission: Help Zhao Jie take the first place in the Qingyun Club, you can get one hundred and fifty points for completing the task, and the punishment for failure in the mission is to be determined."

How is the punishment pending? You can't be underage in this system, right? If I were to be a system, I would be more professional than you.

Lin Xing whispered, and was about to open the Qingyun Club that the mission was carrying, when suddenly the carriage stopped suddenly, and the guard's anxious voice was remembered outside: "There are assassins!" Protect the Son! ”

It's only been a few days, and there are assassins again?

Coming back to her senses from the system, Lin Xing grabbed Zhou Yan's hand, "Shizi, run!" ”

With the experience of being assassinated last time, Lin Xing knew that it was better to run away quickly than to hide in place at this time, at least the moving target was not so accurate.

Obviously, Zhou Yan agreed very much, grabbed her hand and jumped out, picked up a knife at random, and escorted Lin Xing to the alley.

"No, you can't run over there! Go to a crowded place! As soon as she saw the dark alley, Lin Xing felt that it was very dangerous, and dragged Zhou Yan to run in the opposite direction.

But Zhou Yan's legs seemed to be filled with lead, and Lin Xing couldn't drag them at all.

"Can my sister-in-law trust me?" Zhou Yan looked at her in disbelief, stopped and asked.

Lin Xing nodded anxiously, and said: "I believe that the prince is extraordinary, but now it's not that I don't believe in you, but this place is too dangerous!" Keep winning those assassins in as many places as possible, so that they don't dare to do it. ”

It's good if she doesn't have a sense of public morality, anyway, it's just a game, everyone is an NPC, even if it's dead, it's a big deal to restart.

So Lin Xing didn't understand what Zhou Yan meant when he looked at him.

And Zhou Yan stubbornly took her into the alley, "Since Mrs. Sister-in-law believes in me, then I don't have to harm those innocent people, this son will definitely protect Mrs. Sister-in-law!" ”

After half the incense, looking at the five black-clothed people who were entangled with Zhou Yan, Lin Xing wanted to cry without tears.

But she couldn't tell Zhou Yan that those people were NPCs, and it didn't matter if they died—Zhou Yan didn't even know what NPC meant, and it was useless to say it.

Now, Zhou Yan and those killers blocked the only way to leave, and Lin Xing had no choice but to wait where he was.

She squatted down and watched Zhou Yan fight with the killer, while she opened the relevant information of the Qingyun Club on the panel to check.

Qingyun Club is a banquet specially held for men and women of appropriate age in Yuzhou City, men have six arts of gentlemen, and women also have six competitions of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and tea.

Because the Qingyun Club has a long history and is even quite famous in the capital, if it wins the first place in the Qingyun Club, it will be of great benefit to participate in the scientific examination in the future.

After seeing all this, Lin Xing came back to her senses and saw that Zhou Yan had already eliminated all the killers, and she was walking towards her with blood.

She hurriedly caught up, hugged Zhou Yan and asked, "How are you?" ”

The next moment, Zhou Yan completely fainted in her arms, and there was no need to answer, Lin Xing also knew that he was seriously injured.

But the problem is that she can't carry Zhou Yan at all as a weak woman!

In desperation, Lin Xing called out the system, "If you don't care about him, will he die?" ”

"Yes."

Lin Xing frowned, "Isn't he an NPC?" How can an NPC die? ”

"Although it is a game world, these people are real in the world, and they have life, old age, sickness and death like normal people."

After listening to the system's words, Lin Xing felt a little afraid in her heart.

She looked at the corpses lying on the ground in the alley, "That is, the dead are all living people?" ”

"Yes."

Lin Xing instantly clenched Zhou Yan's hand.

If it wasn't Zhou Yan who stopped her, then what was lying in front of her now were the innocent people who were killed by her as NPCs!

Holding back the fear in her heart, Lin Xing shouted loudly, but for some reason there seemed to be no one around here.

In order not to attract a killer, Lin Xing could only shut up and ask the system: "Aren't you a system?" Are there any medicines available in the mall? I want to save people! ”

"Please light up the skill star of the host and activate the system mall."

"Then light it up!"

It's all at this time, where does she have a choice? You can't watch Zhou Yan die.

"Congratulations to the host for lighting up the skill star, the current medical skill star: one star, spend one hundred points, and the system will distribute the drug for free: the basic version of gold sore medicine, please check."

Lin Xing looked at the medicine in her bag painfully and took it out for Zhou Yan to use.

The points she just got in her hand haven't been warmed up yet, snap! It's gone.
