blood seal

Watching the man in black slowly move away, Wen Rongchuan sat down with his back against the tree trunk.

He left in a hurry without even bringing any flint on him. Fortunately, it is summer now, the wind at night is not too cold, and the moonlight is quite bright tonight, otherwise he would not be able to walk such a long distance after leaving Xunfeng Mountain Villa.

It was already past the second watch when he left Ye Chengyu's study, and it should be time to rest now, but after the series of changes just now, Wen Rongchuan couldn't sleep for a while, and after the initial chaos, he had already thought of the original issues that he ignored.

Xiaozi would know that she wanted to "ask for help" from him, and someone must have pointed her out, so her symptoms after drinking blood may also be deliberately designed by someone.

Thinking of how hesitant to speak when he saw Xiao Zi in the past two days, if he had been more vigilant at that time, perhaps these things would not have happened.

Wen Rongchuan smiled wryly for a while.

In any case, he had to find a village early in the morning. Whether he wanted to go back to the Green Bamboo Forest or find Yanmin Mountain first, he needed a horse to travel.

He did not choose Xiucheng, because it is easy to meet people from Xunfeng Villa there. Even though he has figured out that there may be a conspiracy in it, Wen Rongchuan still has some grudges in his heart. Now he just wants to stay away from all matters related to Ye Chengyu, and he does not want to let Ye Cheng Yu saw him now.

Opening the saber pouch given to him by the killer, Wen Rongchuan couldn't help but "tsk tsk" when he saw the contents in the pouch. In addition to silver taels, there were many finely crafted ornaments inside. Looking at this appearance, the killer still Really handed over all the belongings to him.

Wen Rongchuan casually flipped through it for a while, and was about to put it away, but was startled when he saw something.

On the night that Wen Rongchuan left, the secret guard Sixteen, who had just returned from the investigation of Yan's house, also disappeared.

Ye Chengyu asked about the situation, and several secret guards who were close to him said that the sixteenth secret guard was a little weird after returning from Yan's house, and seemed to keep a distance from others on purpose. to track down his whereabouts.

And a few days later, Yu Fei'an, who was in charge of investigating the cause of Xiao Zi's death, finally had the result.

In the study, there are two things in front of Ye Chengyu, one is the wax shell found in Xiao Zi's room, and the other is the medicine that Wen Rongchuan left in the room.

"About the side effects of banned drugs, it is mainly caused by Licao in banned drugs. Licao itself is highly poisonous, but it is one of the important materials that cannot be replaced in banned drugs. Over the years, Demon Demon Sect has been looking for a solution. method." Yu Fei'an explained, picking up two things on the table, "From the smell of the wax shell left in the maid's room, this medicine is the same medicine as in the young master's room. After testing by my subordinates, this medicine It can indeed detoxify the poison of the grass, and I think that the maid asked the young master for this antidote at first, but the young master didn't understand and just gave it to her with blood."

What Yu Feian took out was naturally the medicine that Wen Rongchuan used to take every night. Ye Chengyu looked at it for a while and continued to ask: "You said that spiritual blood can also detoxify the poison of grass, so why did she drink Rongchuan? His blood has worsened?"

Yu Fei'an frowned and said: "You have to find the young master to confirm this point. The formula of the forbidden medicine has been modified. Maybe there are some special herbs in the forbidden medicine today, but the information about the demon teaching in the past has not been verified." Similar to the records, not to mention that Xiao Zi's appearance looks more like she died from the poison of Li Cao, if it was really because of Li Cao, then my subordinates thought—the young master's spiritual blood may be different!"

Ye Chengyu pondered for a while, then saw Yu Fei'an took out a white paper bag and put it on the table, and then he heard him say: "Besides, this is the poison my subordinate found on Xiao Zi's body."

Ye Chengyu spread out the paper bag, and inside were some bright red medicinal powders. Ye Chengyu frowned and said, "The last time I asked you to check, nothing was found. Could it be the medicine that was too late to use?"

Yu Fei'an said: "This is a highly poisonous poison that can kill people instantly. Once ingested, even the young master's spiritual blood will be powerless to recover, and the poison is only enough for one person, so the subordinates boldly speculate that Xiao Zi originally The target may be you, the owner."

Ye Chengyu was silent for a while after hearing the words, and couldn't help but smiled wryly: "After returning to the villa, except for the first two days, all the food used later was prepared by Rong Chuan himself. It seems that it is good to hold a grudge."

Unexpectedly, an unintentional remark at the beginning could accidentally save his life after such a long time. Ye Chengyu looked at the medicine powder in front of him and didn't know how to react for a moment.

Yu Fei'an went on to say: "When my subordinates were inspecting Xiao Zi's room, they found something suspected to be a code left by a dead branch in the room. The subordinate speculated that it was an instruction to inform Xiao Zi to go to the joint, so Xiao Zi would leave the room that night, and then something happened."

"The one who left the secret signal should be the one who instructed Xiao Zi to come and poison..." Ye Chengyu narrowed his eyes, "Could it be that seeing Xiao Zi was unable to do so for a long time, he changed his mind and killed her?"

Yu Fei'an replied, "It's very possible."

Ye Chengyu slowly closed his eyes, but recalled what happened on the day when the accident happened.

That afternoon, a secret guard died outside Ye Junan and Su Yurong's room, but when he went to check, there was nothing missing in the room, let alone any signs of being searched.

Ye Chengyu tapped his fingers on the table, opened his eyes again, but asked, "What do you think of Yin Xiannian?"

Although Yu Fei'an didn't understand why Ye Chengyu suddenly asked Yin Xiannian, he still answered honestly: "My subordinates don't know Yin Xiannian very well, and my first impression of him was that he was a gloomy person, sometimes even a bit scary. , After getting to know him again eight years ago, I realized that he was just a little less talkative, and he was a nice person, other than that, it was hard to see what he was thinking."

Ye Chengyu said: "In your opinion, what is his attitude towards Rong Chuan?"

Yu Fei'an showed hesitation and said: "He has raised the young master for 11 years, no matter what, he should have some feelings, but to be honest, the subordinates once doubted what kind of feelings he has for the young master."

Ye Chengyu asked: "Why?"

Yu Fei'an thought about it, and seemed a little hard to say: "Yin Xiannian has always been in love with Miss, but the young master is the son of Miss and that dog of the Zhou family, and that dog brought Miss to such a situation... In other words It's a subordinate..."

Yu Fei'an didn't continue when he said this, but Ye Chengyu already understood what he meant. Indeed, in this situation, Yin Xiannian might find it difficult to have a good impression of Wen Rongchuan.

Yu Fei'an sighed again: "Actually, when my subordinates found Yin Xiannian again eight years ago, they almost couldn't recognize him...Although Yin Xiannian was gloomy back then, he was still a good-looking talent, but it was only more than 20 years ago. However, he has become very old, like a 70-year-old man, and his subordinates almost thought that he made himself look like that because the lady had an accident and couldn't bear the blow."

Mentioning this matter, Ye Chengyu asked: "Rong Chuan once said that Mr. Yin's appearance is due to his poor martial arts practice. What do you think?"

Yu Fei'an frowned and said, "This subordinate once wanted to feel his pulse, but was rejected by Yin Xiannian, but according to his subordinates, Yin Xiannian's physical condition is still in line with his actual age, and there is no abnormality in his voice. The old appearance is very unsuitable, it is not so much that the practice is wrong, it is more like deliberately pretending to be old."

Ye Chengyu was startled: "Transform? Are you sure?"

Yu Fei'an said: "I can't be sure. His subordinates have secretly checked his hands, and they can't find anything abnormal. Unless Yin Xiannian is still a master of disguise, he shouldn't be able to fake it."

Ye Chengyu pondered for a while, and decided to express his previous doubts about Yin Xiannian.

Although Yu Fei'an and Yin Xiannian have known each other for many years, the relationship between the two is not close after all. Now that Ye Chengyu talked about his opinion, Yu Fei'an's face became more and more ugly.

When Ye Chengyu finished speaking, Yu Fei'an immediately said angrily: "Yin Xiannian! No wonder he never told me about the young lady. I dare say he has other plans!"

Ye Chengyu said again: "You said that Rong Chuan's spiritual blood is a little different, is it possible that it was caused by Mr. Yin's medicine?"

Yu Fei'an frowned when he heard the words, and said, "It's possible, but if so, it should be something that can be taken for a long time to change the physique. What reason will Yin Xiannian use to persuade the young master to eat the food he prepared?"

"Maybe Mr. Yin's reason is to help Rong Chuan change his physique?" Looking at the wax pill in front of him, Ye Chengyu smiled wryly, "In any case, this is just my guess, and there are still many problems in it. Therefore, we should not make a conclusion until we have solid evidence, especially we must not let Rong Chuan know our suspicion."

Yu Fei'an hesitated and said, "But if Yin Xiannian really has a problem, the young master has no defense against him at all!"

Ye Chengyu sighed: "I don't think you need to worry about this, he doesn't necessarily know less than us."

Perhaps Wen Rongchuan had already guessed Yin Xiannian when he saw the handwriting on the wooden board.

Ye Chengyu believes that Wen Rongchuan is not someone who will be blindly trusted because of personal feelings, so Wen Rongchuan has not said so far, maybe there are other possibilities that he did not think of.

The effect of the tracking medicine is only one month, Ye Chengyu can no longer use Chasing Butterfly, and Wen Rongchuan obviously hides from them on purpose, under such circumstances, trying to find Wen Rongchuan is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The people he sent out to search in the two directions of the Demon Demon Sect and the Green Bamboo Forest have not been heard so far, and now unless Wen Rongchuan himself appears, the possibility of finding them is very slim.
