[Comprehensive Martial Arts] Daoist Mo's Whisk

This question was asked, not to mention the thin-skinned Zhan Zhao, even Bao Zheng coughed dryly in embarrassment.

However, Gongsun Ce didn't feel how shocking the question he asked was. He was still looking at Mo Qi expectantly with a look of "wine meets a bosom friend".

With difficulty, Mo Qi nodded his head in the eyes of everyone who said "he definitely won't know": "... I have heard about it, but I have never seen it with my own eyes."

Gongsun Ce's face brightened, "That's easy to say. Among the corpses found in Hexi, most of them are natural aliens, that is, the corpses of men with unusual chest growth. Their corpses have not been damaged. The dead dog’s body was not stuffed into the stomach, but the abdomen was swollen due to stomach gas. The cause of death was that someone wiped his neck, killed him with a knife, and then dumped the body.”

"It is precisely because of the strange death patterns of these deceased, that although they are men, they have the characteristics of women, and their abdomens are bulging like pregnant women, so this case has been passed down as the case of Songzi Guanyin by the people in Hexi." Bao Zheng said.

Mo Qi's eyebrows twitched suddenly: "How can you be so blasphemy."

Only then did Gongsun Ce remember that Mo Qi's job is not a doctor, but a Taoist priest, and Guanyin also has an incarnation in Taoism, so he explained apologetically: "This is a nickname for the common people."

Zhan Zhao's mind was still resounding with the death situation of the deceased that Gongsun Ce had just described, as well as the picture he saw earlier, he felt uncomfortable everywhere, and stammered uncomfortably: "Mr. Gongsun, you What do you mean when you say 'men have female features' and 'breast growth is naturally unusual'?"

Gongsun Ce explained: "Just like males will appear eunuchs, there will naturally be men whose bodies are different from ordinary people, and they are born with some characteristics unique to women. It is common to have feminized breasts alone, and what's more. will be born with all the characteristics of male and female at the same time..."

"But generally speaking, such people's bodies are not too healthy, and once the family members find out, most of them will secretly deal with them as freaks, so it is difficult to survive, and it is even more difficult to find a marriage. Generally, they will not stay. have children."

"This is the strange thing," Gongsun Ce said with a frown, "Such cases are extremely rare. If ordinary men have such signs, most of them would find it difficult to tell, let alone reveal it to anyone. But just now During this period of time, six male corpses like this suddenly appeared in Hexi, which is really strange. It must not be the murderer, but he was born to discriminate against such men, so he specifically targeted such men, right?"

Bao Zheng continued: "There is also the corpse of Tao Zhifu, which is completely different from the other corpses. The meaning of humiliation is greater than that of venting anger. The wound is crisp and clean. No wound is meaningless. The murderer's intention was not to hurt , but an insult to..."

"Besides, I have dealt with Tao Zhifu before, he is not a stranger. If so, why did the murderer who only attacked strangers suddenly kill Tao Zhifu, and even humiliated his corpse in every possible way? I guess , There may be another mystery in the cause of death of these two different dead." Bao Zheng frowned.

Mo Qi said with a wooden face: "...But maybe it was done by people from the Jianghu?"

This matter is strange, but Mo Qi is only helping Bao Zheng to intervene in the Jianghu case. This case does not sound like the hands of the Jianghu people?

Bao Zheng was a little embarrassed: "No, this is not clear. Now Hexi is in chaos because of the case. After the death of the magistrate, some mobs began to break into the house because of the alien case. They insisted on finding out all the aliens, thinking that this It was an indiscriminate disaster brought to them by aliens..."

Gong Jiu sneered: "The dead are all strangers, what do they do, they just want to take the opportunity to smash up and loot some property along the way."

Gongsun Ce put the drawing paper in his hand on the candle and burned it: "The situation in Hexi is chaotic. I don't know if Li Yuanhao in Xixia will take advantage of the chaos. This case must be settled as soon as possible to restore peace to Hexi. But now mobs are everywhere, we send The people who go to investigate the case are only civil servants who have no power to restrain the chicken. If the case is not investigated, they will send an extra lamb to the wolf..."

Bao Xiang said seriously: "Bao Zheng is going to go to Hexi in person to investigate this case. It's just that Mr. Gongsun, as a rare and reliable assistant by my side, needs to go with me. Although Shaoxia Zhan is excellent in martial arts, he can't take care of him alone. Come me and Mr. Gongsun... Therefore, Bao Zheng wants to ask, Hexi and his party are bound to be dangerous, I wonder if Daoist Mo is willing to go with me?"

Zhan Zhao, who was suddenly mentioned, blinked innocently, and then, together with Gongsun Ce, looked at Mo Qi expectantly.

Gong Jiu didn't even need to wait for Mo Qi to speak before he knew his answer.

Gong Jiu moved her lips soundlessly, and together with Mo Qi said word by word: "I should do my best."

After Mo Qi talked with Bao Zheng about going to Hexi, Zhao Zhen, who couldn't wait, was called into the palace that night to see the queen mother.

The Empress Dowager looks benevolent and kind. Compared with the current Empress Dowager who is the mother of the world, she is more like a kind old grandmother who is fondling her grandchildren in the backyard. When Mo Qi walked up to her, the first sentence he opened his mouth to ask was also: "Such a handsome young man , have you ever been married?"

Mo Qi is still taking the silver needle: "..."

Zhao Zhensheng was afraid that his mother's queen would suddenly want to marry Mo Qi on a whim, so he hurriedly said: "Mo Daoxian can't do it, Mo Daoxian is a Taoist priest, so he can't marry."

This can't be a red line, if the little cousin finds out about it, who will have good fruit to eat?

"No" Mo Qi looked at Zhao Zhen with a complicated expression, he hesitated to speak, but was stopped by Zhao Zhen's hand behind his back, gesturing.

Zhao Zhen urged: "Master Dao, please take a look for my mother, can this eye be cured?"

Mo Qi looked into the Empress Dowager's eyes, took the pulse, and asked, "Does the Empress Dowager have pimples? Is the skin usually dry?"

Zhao Zhen nodded: "Yes. Mr. Gongsun asked the same question last time..." He hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Could it be that the Taoist priest can't cure it?"

Mo Qi glanced at Zhao Zhen: "It can be cured, but it will take longer and be more troublesome. This is... in my hometown, people often get it. There are three situations, one is temporary, and it is easier to cure, and the other is because If it was caused by lack of nutrition or illness, it can be rectified, but it will take a while to get over it, as is the case with the Empress Dowager.”

Zhao Zhen asked: "What about the third type?"

Mo Qi: "Three is congenital, this kind needs to be relieved by acupuncture and moxibustion."

After hearing Mo Qi's words, the Empress Dowager and Zhao Zhen didn't have any joy on their faces.The queen mother looked calm, but Zhao Zhen's face was not very good-looking.

Zhao Zhen hesitated for a moment: "...Don't be offended by the Taoist priest. Mr. Gongsun said the same thing when he looked at my mother earlier. But he has been recuperating for two years, and my mother's eyes still cannot see at night..."

The queen mother patted Zhao Zhen's hand holding her comfortingly: "I'm sorry for getting old, isn't it normal for the old man's illness..."

Zhao Zhen still looked at Mo Qi persistently.

Mo Qi was silent for a while.

Zhao Zhen was a little anxious: "Master?"

Mo Qi: "...That's because, besides night blindness, the Queen Mother was also poisoned."

The maids serving the queen mother widened their eyes in panic.

Zhao Zhen also changed his face greatly: "If it is poisoning, why didn't the imperial physician or even Mr. Gongsun mention it?"

Mo Qi said indifferently: "Because this poison is extremely rare, Mr. Gongsun is open and aboveboard, proficient in pharmacology, but not completely proficient in toxicology."

Zhao Zhen was furious, and his heart was filled with horror.

His mother was poisoned right under his nose, but he didn't know it!

He immediately glanced at the shivering maids behind the queen mother, his eyes full of suspicion and guard: "...you all stand back!"

The maids backed out of the door in panic, and Zhao Zhen said one word to the hidden guard on the beam: "Check."

Mo Qi was not surprised by the sudden appearance of the hidden guard, he heard the movement on the beam early in the morning.When the dark guard rushed out, he didn't even take a look at the black shadow.

Zhao Zhen held the Queen Mother's hand, his palms were covered with cold sweat: "What's the danger of this poison... Forget it, Daoist Mo, you just said that you can cure this poison?"

Mo Qi nodded: "Yes."

Only then did Zhao Zhen relax a little.He exhaled lightly, nervously focused on detoxifying his head, and finally remembered something else.

He remembered that General Ma had always firmly believed in Yaoyu, who had no antidote, and couldn't help but said: "...Dare to ask, where did you see these strange poisons?"

The implication of Mo Qi's words is that he is not only proficient in pharmacology, but also proficient in toxicology.However, it was difficult for Zhao Zhen to stand out in Huadian, and he insisted on setting off the elegance and luxury of the entire palace as the elegant and immortal Mo Daochang, linking it with poisonism.

Mo Qi pursed his lips, and said in a low voice: "...When I was a child, I was hit by someone. I...prepared the antidote for him."

Zhao Zhen was a little surprised, but also a little curious. This was the first time Daoist Mo talked about his childhood in front of Zhao Zhen, so that he couldn't help but secretly described the appearance of the Daoist as a child in his mind.

It must be as serious as it is now... Not necessarily, the mischievous Xiaodao leader seems to be very cute.

Mo Qi didn't know what Zhao Zhen, who was calm on the surface, was thinking, he just asked: "This year, the pot of winter that Jiangshan paid tribute to, does your majesty have any left?"

Zhao Zhen recovered from his imagination, and when he heard this sentence, he couldn't help gasping: "This, this pot of winter, can even cure such a poison?!"

Before, Zhao Zhen didn't feel the same remorse as Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua. The person who was poisoned this time was his mother, so he had the priceless treasures in his hands, but he only regarded them as wine for the next meal. Violent sense of property.

- Hate!

Mo Qi was silent for a while, because the expression on Zhao Zhen's face at this time was strikingly similar to that of Hu Tiehua before: "Only the pot of winter that I prepare myself, and the pot of winter that I pay tribute every year, can cure all poisons." The effect of..."

Only then did Zhao Zhen heave a sigh of relief.If all the pots of winter that Mo Qi sold had such medicinal effects, then he would be as heartbroken as Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua.Wouldn't it be like a second life if all these pots of winter were bought back and kept in the palace?How could it be so simple and expensive to sell to those alcoholics!

Even if he bought a thousand-year-old ginseng, it would cost more than this!

He was only half relieved.

Mo Qi said bluntly: "...the rest of the wine is only half effective..."

Zhao Zhen: "..."

The poor little emperor, thinking of the pots of winter he gave to his concubines at random during the Mid-Autumn Festival, cried silently in his heart, regretting so much that his intestines were turning green, and he wished he could go get all the wine back immediately.

What he regrets the most is that when he tasted this wine, he felt that it was too strong. He gave it to all concubines in the sixth palace, but he didn't give it to the queen mother...

Just when he started to drum in his heart, thinking whether he should speak up and ask Taoist Mo for a few more jars and a pot of winter spares, Li He, the head of the Ouchi guards, hurried in: "Your Majesty!"

The hidden guard who had left earlier, swished back to hide on the beam.

Zhao Zhen: "Can we find out who poisoned it?"

Li He knelt on one knee, cupped his hands and said, "I found it."

Zhao Zhen said angrily: "Who?"

Li He: "Xue Bing. When we found her, she had already committed suicide by taking poison."

"Xue Bing..." Zhao Zhen chewed the name in his mouth in a daze, "...Which palace's maid is it?"

Li He shook his head: "She is not a court lady, she got in by killing the original court lady."

Zhao Zhen frowned: "...Then what's the use of telling me her name? Could it be that I know such a person?"

Li He raised his head: "Your Majesty should know." He looked at Zhao Zhen with a pair of energetic and resolute eyes, and reminded, "Lu Xiaofeng, red shoes."

Zhao Zhen was suddenly dumbfounded.

The queen mother realized that she could not understand the conversation between her son and the boy from the Li family, and she couldn't help but said in confusion: "Lu Xiaofeng's Ai family has heard that he is a very powerful hero! When he was handling the... case of the embroidered thief, Aijia has seen him before. But what are these red shoes?"

Zhao Zhen: "It's a very bad, very bad murderous organization. The women in it take pleasure in killing people, and Xue Bing is one of them. But she is also Lu Xiaofeng's concubine, and even his favorite woman, so the Embroidered Thief They took her away and killed her."

The queen mother let out a oh, and after a while, she realized later: "Killed?" She was a little dazed, "Uh, yes, but didn't Chief Li just say that she was pretending to be a court lady, and gave the Ai family Is it poisonous? Could it be that she is an evil ghost crawling out of the ground? Huang'er, don't scare Ai's family!"
