Nongmen Shenjue

Chapter 181 Accidental Death

"Do what you can." Wen Jixue stood beside him, paying attention to protecting him.

Mu Qingyan nodded, and the supernatural ability was working——

When the time goes back to eight years ago, the eyes are a world of black and white, which can be recognized from the blurred outlines. The black is the dead trees and vines, and the white is the heavy snow on the ground.He couldn't hear any sound, but the picture was slightly clearer than when he went back to Huangjia Village. For example, now, he can see someone galloping fast on horseback. A black cloak is very conspicuous.

The man rode his horse forward while raising his bow and arrow.

In front of it, a group of red shadows dodged and fled nimbly on the white snow, it should be the fire fox.

The fire fox was running in the direction of that deep ditch, but it leaped lightly and crossed over lightly.The deep ditch has been camouflaged, paved with withered grass and twigs, and now it is covered with falling snow. At first glance, it looks indistinguishable from the surrounding area.Not to mention unfamiliar with the terrain in the forest, even hunters who come here often can easily step on it if they don't pay attention.However, if hunters set traps, they will often make a mark around them, not only to remind themselves but also to remind other hunters, one is for safety, and the other is to show that the trap has an owner.

How could Tu Xingwu understand this, besides, he was full of fire foxes at the moment, but his luck was not good, the horse's hoof happened to step on the floating snow on the deep ditch, and immediately he and the horse fell down.

Even if he couldn't hear the sound, he could still imagine the screaming and neighing of the horse at that time.

The forest is quiet in winter, Tu Xingwu brought two followers, can't you hear me?

Mu Qingyan estimated the time, and when the two attendants found them, it should be two quarters of an hour later.It seemed that the time was not long, but it was enough for Tu Xingwu to lose too much blood and die in a coma.The cold weather will indeed slow down the blood flow, but it will also quickly take away the body temperature and vitality.

It is true that Tu Xingwu accidentally fell into the trap after chasing his prey, the fire fox. It is unlikely to be a man-made murder. After all, how can a prey like a fox be controlled?

Mu Qingyan didn't have time to think about it, and withdrew the ability, his brain was stabbed, and his spirit was exhausted.Fortunately, he was cautious and didn't dare to go back for too long, so he didn't hurt the root cause.

Wen Jixue saw his face turned pale and sweat dripped from his forehead before, and knew something was wrong, but he didn't dare to make a sound to disturb her. Seeing him withdrawing now, she hurriedly picked him up, feeling distressed and blaming herself: "Follow me earlier. You said do what you can. What do you think? You are exhausting too much by doing this, so you don’t have to do this next time. After all, you have a keen mind and quite a lot of experience, so just help me analyze more.”

It is Wen Jixue's obsession to find the real culprit behind the murder of Xue's family.At the beginning, he was aware of Mu Qingyan's outstanding ability before contacting him, and he wanted to ask Mu Qingyan for help, but now that the relationship between the two of them changed, he became worried again and was in a dilemma.Seeing Mu Qingyan tired and unable to move again, he finally suppressed his eagerness for revenge.

Wen Jixue took him to the inn in the town.

Mu Qingyan's power wasted too much, and he fell asleep lying on Wen Jixue's back. This is a self-protection mechanism, and sleep can gently and safely restore the spirit.After sleeping all night and waking up, Wen Jixue ordered someone to bring food, this time it was not porridge and side dishes, and after they were used up, they brought a cup of ginseng soup.

This cup of ginseng soup is stewed squab with ginseng slices. The soup is clear and dotted with several wolfberries.

"This is wild ginseng, which has been used for hundreds of years. It is a great tonic. You said before that if you are in such a situation, you can take wild ginseng at your discretion?" Wen Jixue asked Gao Tian to rush to Fucheng overnight, and then After finding such a good ginseng, I stewed it in a pot and prepared it.

Mu Qingyan looked inside, and there were five ginseng slices inside. The hundred-year-old wild ginseng is really strong and has strong medicinal properties, which can greatly invigorate vitality.This kind of wild ginseng is not suitable for ordinary people to take, otherwise it is easy to overdo it, which is harmful instead of beneficial.

"It's useful to me." But not as good as jade.

Immediately, he drank a cup of soup and chewed two pieces of ginseng slices.

Whenever the ability is used excessively, it will only consume the spirit, and the body will not be seriously affected.And his supernatural ability absorbs the essence of wood energy, which helps to make up for the physical body, and the mental wear and tear can only be recuperated slowly.Earlier in Hexian County, he got good jade and made a pair of jade pendants. Wen Jixue also gave him a white jade buckle. He often wears it on his body. Now he only sticks it on his forehead to communicate with supernatural powers. The stinging mind seems to be The feeling of coolness poured in, the pain was relieved, and the spirit gradually recovered.

Using a good piece of jade once speeded up the recovery speed by [-] to [-]%.

Wen Jixue saw him use it once before, but looking at it now, it still feels unbelievable.He is a martial artist, and what he practices is inner qi. Only with a deep inner strength can he release his inner qi outward, hurting people invisible.And he practiced every step of the way, from the outside to the inside, and then from the inside to the outside.Every time Mu Qingyan used his supernatural ability, he would notice it. It was precisely because of the fluctuation that it was like a master exuding internal energy, but it was much more peaceful and concealed.

For three days in a row, Mu Qingyan recovered with the help of jade in his room, and finally the pain in his head was no longer there.

The next step is to recuperate slowly. The aura in a piece of jade is also limited, so it should be used at critical moments.Anyway, there is no rush now, let it be relieved, and the rest is time to grind.

It was also at this time that he told Wen Jixue about Tu Xingwu.

"It is true that Tu Xingwu accidentally fell into a trap after chasing Firefox. It is difficult to plan this matter with manpower. I think it is indeed an accident."

"Since that's the case, you just have to take care of yourself and recuperate."

Wen Jixue also checked carefully at the beginning, but Tu Xingwu casually said that he was chasing a fire fox, but it may also be a nonsense to escape guilt. After all, Tu Xingwu is dead, and there is no evidence for his death.When an accident happened, the attendants panicked and ran back to the barracks to find someone. A group of people came, and the forest was in chaos. When they went to the government to receive a report, they could not collect any useful traces at all.

Now as long as it is confirmed that Tu Xingwu is indeed chasing Huohu into a trap, then the result is determined and it is just an accident.

That Tu Xingwu Jiji camp had finally become a third-rank general, and he could be regarded as having a high position of real power. Who would have expected that one day he would die in such a useless animal trap one day.

Half a month later, the two set off again.

This time I went to Ji Province.

Gao Liangjun, who went to the border to be the military supervisor, had to be promoted afterwards, and he was the inspector of Ji Province before his death.According to the law, the inspector is the third grade, in charge of the criminal name of a province, and has great power.

Nine years ago, one year after Huang Li's death, Gao Liangjun died of illness.

Gao Liangjun was in his fifties when he died. According to the ancients, he was indeed an old age, but in the officialdom, he was at the right age.Those who can be above the third rank are usually in their 50s and [-]s, and very few are in their thirties.Gao Liangjun was born as an official, but his family background is not prominent, but he married a high-ranking wife back then, and he clung to him extremely.That year when the imperial court was about to go to war with the Northern Man, he took the post of supervisor of the army, which was a turning point in his official career.

Wen Jixue pulled out Gao Liangjun's information and said: "This Gao Liangjun suffers from heart palpitations. He is not suitable for drinking, but he likes alcohol. On the day of the accident, his grandson was one year old. He drank a lot and couldn't sleep. .”

Because Gao Liangjun was married to a high-ranking wife, he relied on his Yue family for his official career, so he was naturally obedient in everything and did not take concubines.With only one son and one daughter under his knees, he always felt thinner.When his son got married, there were quite a few wives and concubines, but three of them were granddaughters in succession. Two grandchildren were born but died before the full moon.Now that he has finally got a grandson, after his first birthday, he will naturally throw a big banquet, give him a name, and write down the family tree.

He was already addicted to alcohol, and a happy event was coming, so he drank again and again under the congratulations of all parties.

The family members were very careful, and even took pills. How did they know that they were fine before going to bed, and they lost their breath before they knew it.He was fully clothed and uninjured. He was clutching his heart tightly with both hands, and his face was full of pain. It was obvious that he was suffering from heart palpitations. Before he could call for help and take medicine, he died.

When Wen Jixue came to investigate, he first found the official conclusion, and then checked the Gao family's behavior, but found nothing abnormal.

Gao Liangjun had no trauma on his body, and he held his heart tightly, which fit the symptoms of sudden death due to palpitations.Moreover, although Gao Liangjun's face was grim and painful, he had no symptoms of poisoning.

"There should be someone on duty outside Gao Liangjun's room. He's having a seizure, but there's no movement outside?" Mu Qingyan asked.

Wen Jixue said: "Gao Liangjun drank too much wine at the banquet, and his family persuaded him to take medicine, so he went back to his room to rest. It was still early, the banquet was not over, and there was excitement everywhere. If he had an attack at this time, there would be a little If the servants are not careful, they won’t be able to hear the movement.”

If so, it would make sense, Gao Liangjun fell ill and died in the first half of the night, and even later in the quiet night, there would be no movement, and the family members would naturally not be able to find out.

Today's Inspectorate has already changed two terms. After Gao Liangjun's death, the Gao family returned to their original place.With the help of his natal family, his son found a small official without much talent.

Mu Qingyan read the information recorded on Gao Liangjun's family one by one, especially the people Gao Liangjun had contact with before his death, and even the guests who gave Gao Liangjun a toast.Outsiders can't see anything, and it is difficult for people inside the Gao family to find out suspicious persons.This is the reason why old cases are difficult to investigate. As time goes by, no matter how many clues and traces there are, they may disappear.

If it is said that Gao Liangjun did not die of natural illness, then...

Someone changed his meds?

Such critical life-saving pills must be kept properly, and should be in the hands of someone who has served him for a long time.After his accident, this person will also be interrogated by the Gao family and the government.Such a close person must have children from generation to generation, loyal and stable, so that he can serve close to him.Moreover, murdering the master's family does not benefit him at all, not only his own wealth and life, but also the lives of his family members are all in the hands of the master's family.

The chances of the Caretaker Pill slipping through the cracks are too slim.

So, was something else in Gao Liangjun's entrance that induced the palpitations?

drinks?Gao Liangjun did not drink alcohol, besides, how could such a person not cherish his life?He drank alcohol when he was happy that day, but he must have controlled it. Even if he forgot, there were people watching him.

Tu Xingwu had died by accident, so it is impossible for Gao Liangjun to be the same.

As Wen Jixue said, how can there be so many coincidences in the world?

In fact, the successive deaths of Huang Li, Tu Xingwu, and Gao Liangjun must have aroused the fear of many people, and the death of these three people was also carefully investigated by the court.When Tu Xingwu died and the imperial envoy came, did the emperor value Tu Xingwu?Not so, but the emperor thought of the deaths of Huang Li and Gao Liangjun, and suspected that the remnants of the Xue family were taking revenge. However, after several investigations, no abnormalities were found, so he had to put it aside, but in the dark, he could never relax his vigilance.

The person behind the scenes is so cunning and bold, it's just perfect.

Thinking that he overthrew the Xue clan, he was not surprised.

"Such a person who is good at planning, how can he be an unknown person?" Mu Qingyan dug up the previous list again, and carefully studied the suspicious names.
