Chapter 42: The Immortal Anointing
Realizing that something was wrong with this matter, Lin Xing immediately glanced at Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan waved his hand, and the guards behind him retreated, leaving only the two of them to communicate in a low voice in the corridor.
"Mrs. Sister-in-law, what's wrong with Zhao Zhong's words?" Zhou Yan lowered his voice and leaned in front of Lin Xing.
It was the first time for the two to get so close, Lin Xing was a little unaccustomed to it, but the matter was urgent, she didn't think about it, so she learned from Zhou Yan and said in a dumb voice: "What Zhao Zhong said is quite strange, please ask the prince to order, all the people involved in the torture of Zhao Zhong today must be monitored to prevent them from leaking this matter." ”
Zhou Yan glanced at the cell and said, "This is a bit embarrassing. ”
He stretched out his hand and counted them, "There are about twenty people involved in the torture today, and if they are all under surveillance, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public if they have no reason." ”
As the prince of the world, he can naturally do whatever he wants, but if he rashly does such a thing that deceives people too much, it will damage his reputation, and he has to think twice.
But Lin Xing is still not sure, what Zhao Zhong said is the same thing as the East he guessed, if not, it would be fine, but if it is...... Thinking of the disasters caused by that thing in human history, Lin Xingliu frowned.
She thought about it again and again, and said to Zhou Yan: "I suspect that Zhao Zhong's grandson is not suffering from a strange disease, but was lured by someone and committed some kind of addiction. This matter still needs to be investigated in-depth to be determined, so please consider it at your discretion. ”
Seeing Lin Xing's face so serious, Zhou Yan knew that it would not be a trivial matter, and he said, "How can my sister-in-law know how to be sure?" ”
"We have to investigate what Zhao Zhong's grandchildren have been exposed to." Lin Xing said, thinking that Zhao Zhong often went to the Tanglin Pharmacy, and added, "Especially to check whether this thing is related to the Tanglin Pharmacy, if so, then these days, people who often go to the Tanglin Pharmacy have to find out." ”
If it is really what he thinks, and behind the Tanglin Pharmacy is the prince, that prince must be abolished!
Sensing Lin Xing's seriousness, Zhou Yan did not delay and immediately ordered someone to go down to investigate.
After giving instructions in the corridor of the prison, Zhou Yancai and Lin Xing went to the cell to see Zhao Zhong.
And Zhao Zhong saw Lin Xing, his eyes dodged and dodged.
Zhao Jie's face turned black with anger at his appearance, and he scolded: "Do you know now that you have no face to see my mother?" When you wanted to hurt her, why didn't you feel ashamed of her? My father treats you well, and I also have special respect for you, you are in our Zhao family, except for the two old ones, who else dares to show you a face? What are you suffering from that you can't say! A hundred years later, do you have the face to go down to see my father! ”
The more Zhao Jie said, the more pale Zhao Zhong's face became.
Lin Xing raised his hand to stop Zhao Jie, "Don't say it again, the wood is already in the boat, since he does this, he will naturally have to bear the consequences." ”
As he spoke, Lin Xing glanced at the officials around him and slowly walked in front of Zhao Zhong.
Zhao Zhong's hands were broken behind his back, hanging on a wooden stake, and his body was also beaten by Zhao Jie to the point of blood, and the whole person was embarrassed.
Lin Xing stood in front of him, looked up, moved his lips and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "What has your grandson sucked?" ”
Under the gaze of Lin Xing's sharp gaze, Zhao Zhong's eyes were shocked, even if there were no other superfluous expressions, it also confirmed Lin Xing's guess.
That's what she thought!
"But it has something to do with the people at the Tanglin Pharmacy?" Lin Xing asked another question without pause.
Zhao Zhong had already reacted at this time, avoided her gaze, and avoided answering, but he was even more sure of Lin Xing's guess in his heart.
Thinking that thing had actually been introduced here at this time, Lin Xing's face suddenly changed, and he turned to Zhou Yan and said, "Your Highness, immediately send troops to encircle and suppress the Tanglin Pharmacy!" ”
"No! Please, Madame, don't do that! Otherwise, it will kill the people of Yuzhou! Zhao Zhong turned his head and begged bitterly, tears in his eyes.
Lin Xing turned to meet his gaze with a cold expression: "You also know that this will harm the people of Yuzhou?" So why don't you say it? You don't want to save the people of Yuzhou at all, you're just worried that your grandson will die without medicine! ”
She scolded her, startling everyone in the cell.
Only Zhou Yan called Zhang Ping as usual and ordered: "Keep an eye on the Tanglin Pharmacy, don't be discovered by others." ”
His voice was not loud or small, enough for the officials in the cell to hear, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and immediately looked at their noses and noses, but they didn't hear it.
- The prince of the world is clearly warning them that this matter must not be leaked.
Zhou Yan took the looks of these people into his eyes and turned around with satisfaction.
Lin Xing and Zhao Jie were still torturing Zhao Zhong, but Zhao Zhong didn't know much, and the two didn't ask anything.
But it was not easy to know that the problem was in the Tanglin Pharmacy, and neither of them was discouraged.
After getting out of the prison, Zhao Jie got into Lin Xing and Zhou Yan's carriage, stared at Lin Xing with curious eyes and asked, "Mother, what kind of disease does Zhao Zhong's grandson have?" Why did Zhao Zhong's face change as soon as you said it? ”
Zhou Yan also thought of what Lin Xing said, Zhao Zhong's grandson is not sick but addicted, and he also stole the gaze of exploration.
At this point, Lin Xing did not hide the need from them, and said bluntly: "He is not sick, but he is addicted to immortal ointment, and now he can't quit, so he can only rely on immortal ointment to live." If you become addicted to it, but there is no fairy ointment to suck, the whole person will have convulsions, and the pain will be unbearable, like ten thousand ants eroding the heart, which is more uncomfortable than death. ”
Just listening to Lin Xing's calm mouth say this, Zhao Jie was so frightened that he was clever, "There is still such a thing?" ”
"It stands to reason that there is no Daqing, but if someone comes from overseas, it will be impossible to prevent it." Lin Xing's eyes were cold.
Whether it was Zhao Jie or Zhou Yan, they had never seen her so serious, so they unconsciously became serious.
The carriage fell silent for a while, until Zhou Yan spoke: "Zhang Ping has already gone to stare at the Tanglin Pharmacy, presumably there will be results soon, don't worry." ”
Zhou Yan's calm voice made Lin Xing gradually calm down.
She nodded, and told Zhou Yan how to deal with the immortal ointment, which was also a trace of comfort in her heart.
Even if she did what she could, Lin Xing still couldn't sleep, and when she returned to Nanluoguxiang, she immediately called out Xiaoyi.
"What kind of dynasty is this? Is it reasonable that the productivity is so backward that there can still be such a thing as fairy ointment? Lin Xing couldn't hold back and asked the doubts in her heart.
You can't just go to war right now and then go to World War I, right? According to the current industrial level of the Daqing Dynasty, it has not been beaten on the ground!
Xiao Yi is also helpless, "The game world is adapted from the background of the novel world, and it is quite different from the timeline of the real world, and it will not develop according to the timeline of the real world, please rest assured." ”
Lin Xing twitched the corner of her mouth.
I don't know which novel this is based on, and when she has a human body, she must come to thank the author in person!
