Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

In the woodshed in the backyard, the boy was sitting with his legs crossed and licking his fingers. In front of him were a pile of chicken bones and various leftover snacks. Two tall and strong soldiers who followed Bi'an on a daily basis stood on his left and right.

He was not afraid at all, he just turned a blind eye. No matter what he was asked, he just shook his head, not even bothering to say "I don't know". His face was pale, bloodless, very thin, staring with a pair of big watery eyes, looking very innocent. If Jiuling hadn't caught him on the spot, who would believe that he could kill someone?

Seeing Jiuling and Bi'an coming in together, he burped, squinted his eyes and smiled, then began to hum a tune leisurely. The melody was mournful, and coupled with his thin and soft voice, he seemed to be in the mood. He slowly stood up and recited the lyrics.

A girl named Luofu from the land of Qin was picking mulberry trees by the green water.

On the green strips on the bare hands, the red makeup is fresh in the day.

The silkworms are hungry and the concubine wants to go, but the five horses cannot stay.

A pair of orchid hands, a pair of phoenix eyes, the eyes moved with resentment, love, weeping and complaining, humming and chanting, endlessly, making everyone feel creepy.

Several people were staring at him in fascination when the boy suddenly stopped talking and started laughing, his thin shoulders shaking continuously.

Then the sound stopped abruptly and the boy fell to the ground.

Jiuling felt something was wrong and rushed forward to check. He saw that the child was pale, bleeding from the mouth, and had already died.

Bi'an pinched the blood from the corner of his lips with his fingers, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, and exclaimed: "Oh my God! It's Gelsemium!"

Several people claimed that they had seen a lot of things, but they never expected that this child, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, was actually an absolute top killer! They were speechless for a while.

Jiu Ling in particular felt the hairs on his body stand up. He looked at Bi An and whispered, "This matter must be kept secret. Apart from us, no one else should know about it."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a burst of hurried footsteps coming from outside, and several people closed the door tacitly.

"Bi'an, Bi'an!" Wang Jue's voice came from outside the house, sounding extremely anxious.

Jiuling motioned for him to go out.

Bi'an nodded, walked to the door, gently opened it, and immediately closed it again.

"After thinking about it, I still want to tell you something." Wang Jue didn't notice Bi'an's serious expression. He just took a deep breath and lowered his voice, "When Miss Nan first came to us, she offended Cao Er because she helped me and Shuyu. This morning, I suddenly remembered that half a month ago, he had a nephew from a distant place who came to seek refuge. Could he be the one who wanted to harm Miss Nan?"

"Cao Er?" Bi'an was confused. He tried to recall for a while before asking doubtfully, "The goatee guy who's in charge of the stable outside?"

"Yes." Wang Jue nodded.

"I know. I'll go ask him later." Bi'an thought for a moment, and hurriedly pulled Wang Jue who was about to leave, and whispered, "Uncle Jue, the people in the farm don't know about this yet. If you remember anything, just come to me and tell me. Don't mention it to anyone else, and don't ask around. We don't know who is behind this yet. If we alert the enemy, won't Miss Nan be in even greater danger?"

"I'm awake." Wang Jue nodded repeatedly and then hurried out.

Bi'an turned inside and shrugged at Jiuling: "Did you hear everything?"

Jiu Ling stared at the child on the ground and said solemnly, "Take good care of his body. I will go find the master."
