After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 543 Bai Ziqi's Request
So it was Gu? "It's really fast, less than thirty breaths from head to tail."

Bai Ziqi signaled to the doctor that the autopsy can be performed, and then said to the two:

"I traveled all over Bega. I saw this kind of case in the Sula country 20 years ago, and I also did special research. The deceased was an attendant of a high-ranking official. After poisoning his master, he himself died. He was infected by the same fate Gu. The person who killed is almost this dead."

"Same life Gu has one egg and two worms. One of the larvae is planted in the heart, and it feeds on hard work and true strength. After three hundred days, it will grow up and have the ability to threaten the host. But at that time, the Gu worm host will also It is completely controlled by the Gu raiser, because they can trigger the Gu to kill at any time and take their lives."

He Lingchuan interrupted: "What does concentricity mean?"

"Identical twin Gu worms, a potential victim's heart, is called a male worm, also known as a 'tsugger', and the other yin worm is of course in the hands of the Gu keeper. This thing can not eat for a long time, but the raised worm Containers are very important, they cannot be stored in gold, porcelain, jade and other utensils, they must not be soiled, and they must be waterproof.”

Fu Shanyue asked casually: "Then what else can be used, bamboo?"

"Yes, bamboo tubes are generally used." Bai Ziqi also found it ironic, "It's very suitable for Beijia to produce bamboo tubes for chewing tobacco."

Bamboo tube?

Gu worms packed in bamboo tubes?

He Lingchuan stared.

In addition to chewing tobacco from various countries, I seem to have heard people mention bamboo tubes somewhere, but I didn't remember it for a while.

"It's also very simple to kill people, because the two worms that have been refined by a special method live and die together. As long as the yin worm is crushed to death, the yang worm will also die in a riot within dozens of breaths. Before it dies, it will wantonly Destroy the host's body, and even release poison to attack meridians, so Wu Kai will have this dead look."

The doctor under Fu Shanyue is actually very professional. During the conversation between the three, he had already cut out the heart of the deceased, drained the blood, and showed it to all the adults.

Wu Kai's heart was full of small holes, almost like a sieve.No one can survive this kind of injury.

Bai Ziqi sighed, "Cut it open and have a look."

The doctor obeys orders.

Wu Kai's heart was cut open, and the eyes of the three present were bright, but they didn't see anything unusual for a moment.

Instead, the doctor observed for a long time and picked out a slender purple-black strip from the myocardium with the tip of a knife, which looked like a blood clot.

"Is this the chigger that Dushi Bai mentioned?"

Before Wu Kai died, he suffered a serious crime, suffered a heart attack, and it is normal to have blood clots.As soon as he pulled it apart, everyone realized that it was indeed a worm, but the abdomen and legs were not obvious.

Fu Shanyue scratched the back of his head, and said irritably: "What's the use of knowing that he died of peach heart gu? You can't open your mouth when you die!"

Wu Kai's mouth was sealed tightly, and some secrets were destined to be brought into the coffin by him.If we can't dig deeper, the main culprit in the elixir case can only be Cen Boqing.

This is to crucify all the charges on him.

"The same fate Gu is planted in people's hearts, and it takes a year to cultivate it. Once activated, no magic powers can stop it, and even the substitute death technique will not work, because even if the injury is removed, the Gu insect will still Stay in the heart of the original host. It can be said that if the Gu holder wants you to die, you have to die." Bai Ziqi thought while saying, "But I heard that the same fate Gu is extremely difficult to refine, not only the success rate is low, but the proficient There are only a handful of them. If they were not worried about Wu Kai revealing the secret, they would probably not be in a hurry to kill him."

Fu Shan looked up and looked at his eyes full of hope: "Can we start from this aspect?"

Bai Ziqi has investigated cases in this area before, so maybe there are corresponding resources to mobilize.

"Maybe, I have to write a few letters and ask an old friend from the past to help me look it up."

Fu Shan let out a sigh of relief: "That's good. It's good that the clues are not broken."

The three of them walked up, and as soon as they arrived at the inn yard, they happened to see the sky in the east turning pale.

Bai Ziqi glanced at He Lingchuan, smiled wryly and said, "It's almost dawn, it seems God doesn't want us to rest."

He also specially made some arrangements with Cheng Yu.

Fu Shanyue invited him: "How about going to our courtyard for a tea break?"

Without putting on airs, Bai Ziqi nodded immediately: "Okay, I heard that Chiyan has a lot of good tea."

He has never seen any storms, but there are very few cases that can trigger so many accidents in one day.

The three of them walked to Fu Shanyue's site, and the guards removed the prince's previous remnant seat, and served tea and snacks.

"Cen Boqing's clue is probably the only one we can find for the time being." Fu Shan was not without regrets, "Mai Xuewen's whereabouts are also missing, so it's difficult to deal with. By the way, according to my father and king, Mai Xuewen's raised The monster seems to have some background."

Snail toad?He Lingchuan's heart skipped a beat, and he continued to kowtow on the surface.Fu Shanyue didn't mention this before, they already know that Snail Toad is Dong Rui's work?

Bai Ziqi: "Oh?"

"His subordinates rely entirely on this monster to escape from the ground to catch monsters. They come and go without a trace, and they act very covertly. But this monster is all based on the hard shell on its back. He Xiao once set up a trap in Zhitian Township to catch it, but what about its body?" The shell is a hundred times more durable than a tortoise, and hundreds of officers and soldiers have energy, yet they were still escaped by it." Fu Shan said slowly, "After this was reported, my father said that the hard shell was very similar to him. A magic weapon I heard before."

"Oh?" Not only He Lingchuan was concentrating, but Bai Ziqi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is it?"

"One of the treasures of the Qing Palace, the Snail House." Fu Shanyue continued, "This is the natal magic weapon of the ancient Snail Fairy. It is said that it took thousands of years to polish it. Not only is it extremely hard, but it is also a palace of its own inside. It can accommodate hundreds of people, and it is extremely wide. But the snail fairy died before the battle of destroying the world, and this hard shell has never been able to control other monsters. Somehow, it wandered in Bega and entered the ranks of Qing Palace collections."

Bai Ziqi didn't say a word, and He Lingchuan was his own supporter: "How can the baby of the Qing Palace be related to Mai Xuewen?"

Bai Ziqi immediately said: "He Xiao, be careful with your words!"

He Lingchuan coughed lightly: "I want to ask, is there something else hidden in this?"

Bai Ziqi hesitated for a moment before saying, "A batch of treasures were stolen from the Qing Palace more than ten years ago, including this dwelling."

"Even the Qing Palace has lost something!" He Lingchuan was surprised, "Who has this kind of ability, a thief?"

"...Yes." This kid hit the nail on the head, "It was the work of the thief. Although the thief was killed later, the whereabouts of many treasures have been unknown since then and have not been recovered."

He Lingchuan was puzzled: "How could Cen Boqing, who is in Lingxu City, not know about such a big event?"

If Cen Boqing knew, Wu Kai would probably know too. How could Mai Xuewen dare to use the dwelling house casually?
Bai Ziqi didn't answer, Fu Shan smiled and said: "Because most people in Lingxu City don't know about it. The Qing Palace has covered up this matter, even if Da Si Nong knows, he may not tell his son-in-law."

"But Dijun... well, I mean, everyone who should know already knows?"

"Of course." Fu Shanyue pointed to his nose, "Doesn't my family know about it?"

"Then forget about the lost magic weapon?"

Fu Shanyue teased: "The aura of heaven and earth is so thin, how many ancient treasures are turned into scraps every year, and can only be sold at antique prices, do you know?"

He Lingchuan shook his head without hesitation, like a bumpkin.

In that respect, he was a country bumpkin.In terms of origin, antiquities, and financial resources, how can Yuan Country compare with Beja?
The family has a vast land and rich resources, and there are so many antiques that they don't feel bad if they are broken casually. One or two pieces in the Yuan Kingdom will be offered as treasures to the heavens, and there is no family to lose.

"The lost treasures and resold antiques are mostly reported as damaged or aged. You can even say that you accidentally smashed them, and no one will hold them accountable. These things are hidden in the deep palace. If you know it and don’t care, why tell them?” Fu Shan smiled more and looked at Bai Ziqi, “Bai Dushi must also know this semi-public secret.”

Bai Ziqi coughed lightly, but did not deny it.

He Lingchuan came to a sudden: "So that's how it is!"

"The thief who entered the palace to steal the treasure back then is dead, but the snail house fell into Mai Xuewen's hands and used it to make trouble." Bai Ziqi said slowly, "When I go back to the Qing Palace, I still have to visit Qingyang Guoshi, and then find him again. some clues."

This sentence is a disguised admission, and now he has nothing to do with Mai Xuewen.

He Lingchuan summed it up for him in his mind, Mai Xuewen, the fugitive who robbed and killed Zhong Sunmou, is still at large, and there is no other way for the time being; Wu Kai died violently as a repeat offender, the only result is that Cen Boqing has pleaded guilty, and the evidence about him has also been released. Unmistakable.

Mrs. Cen Yao Xingning sent him an important witness, that is, an actor from Tingheyuan and Wu Kai's connector, but the clues found from this person have to go back to Lingxu City to follow up.

Then, the investigation of the elixir drug case in Baishazhen has come to an end, and Bai Ziqi has no reason to stay any longer.

Unless, another task he wants to do is also related to this place.

What will he do next?

Fu Shanyue has already opened his mouth to ask: "Then Bai Dushi intends to return to Lingxu City and continue to handle the case?"

He wanted to track the progress of the case, and of course he wanted to inquire about Bai Ziqi's next plan.

Bai Ziqi didn't seem to have made up his mind either. He twirled the teacup several times in his hand, and finally nodded: "Well, I'll escort Cen Boqing back. He Xiao—"

He looked at He Lingchuan: "You have crossed paths with Cen Boqing, Zhong Sunmou, Mai Xuewen and others. As a witness, you have to come with me."

"Ah?" He Lingchuan pointed at himself with a look of surprise, "I have to go too?"

Oh, Bai Ziqi really made this request to him.Want to interrogate him on the way, right?

Bai Ziqi smiled and nodded: "The prince won't be reluctant, will he?"

"Where will it happen?" Fu Shanyue raised his hand to make him a cup of tea, and then said to He Lingchuan, "Let's not talk about the bustling clouds and mist, Lingxu City has outstanding people, and can be called the only beauty in the world. Wouldn't it be fun for us to visit the mountains and rivers all the way there? !"

Bai Ziqi's eyes narrowed slightly: "Us?"

"That's right." Fu Shanyue grinned, showing his big white teeth, "I'll go too. The Chiyan demon people were killed, and my father insisted that I investigate thoroughly. Oh, then why don't I go and see? "
