Chapter Ninety-Four: The Mysterious Man
In the room of the son of the Sheng family.
The old man of the Sheng family looked at his son with a solemn expression.
"What did they say to you?"
The son of the Sheng family smiled bitterly, "What else can you say?" It's just asking about my illness, Dad, you don't have to bother, my illness can't be cured, while you're still young, let's have another son. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" The master of the Sheng family immediately interrupted him. "You're here to recuperate. I'll definitely find a way to cure you. Without waiting for him to answer, he turned and left the room.
Back in the study, the master of the Sheng family thought about it and called the little servant over. "Send someone to follow them, see what they will be doing these days, where they are going, and report their whereabouts to me."
The little servant retreated, leaving the master alone in the study, not knowing what he was thinking.
Back at the inn, Jian Zhanmo and his party of four sat together and began to discuss today's affairs.
Xuanhe spoke first, "So are we really going?" Could that be a trap. ”
"But even if we know it's a trap, can we still not go away?" Although the heroine's words are simple, they are insightful, and their current situation is not at all the time when they can choose at will.
"Yes, even if we know it's a trap, we must break through it and see who set this trap, anyway, the moonstone must be in his hands." Jian Zhanmo also agreed with Lin Jingjing's opinion, since he knew this clue, he must check it out.
Yurong nodded, "Yes, I must get the moonstone." "Moonstone is not only related to whether Xuanhe can become the next head of the family, but also related to the happiness of her life, she can only bet this time.
"In that case, let's set off tomorrow to find out what kind of person that mysterious person is." Jane Zhan Mo
Lin Jingjing sat in Jian Zhanmo's room, "I don't think this son of the Sheng family has any chance of surviving, there is a pool of stagnant water in his eyes, and even when he talks about the luminous stone, it is only a slight wave, and then it quickly goes out." ”
"When have your senses been so sharp?"
The heroine gave him a blank look, "I've always been so smart and agile." But what kind of illness do you say he has, I heard that he was fine half a year ago, is it really because of the loss of the treasure? ”
The male protagonist walked to the window and looked at the scenery outside the window, "Look at how good the scenery outside this window is." ”
The hostess stood up and walked to the window, but as far as the eye could see, it was only a house, and the only thing that could be called a view was only a small flower garden behind the inn, but because it was not carefully cared for, she did not even see a single flower in the middle of summer.
"Is this a good view?" The heroine looked suspicious.
"But in some people's cases, it is already a very happy thing to be able to see the sun rising the next day."
Now the heroine didn't understand it even more, "But the son of the Sheng family didn't feel happy when he saw the rising sun." ”
The male protagonist sighed, "That's because he knows that his life has been frozen, and he may not even be able to decide when to leave, only by completely losing hope can a person be truly destroyed." ”
What do you mean by that? What disease does he know he has? Even the date of death is already known? Doesn't that mean that his illness was framed? The heroine grew her mouth in surprise, the illness of the son of the Sheng family turned out to be murdered.
"These are just my guesses, there is no actual evidence, but I think the truth will not be far from us tomorrow when I meet that mysterious man." The male protagonist has a general concept in his heart, but there are still many questions that need to be answered, and he didn't take the liberty to say all his thoughts, and decided to continue collecting evidence.
The female protagonist saw that he was really not ready to continue the topic, so he didn't force him to ask, although the male protagonist was always smiling, but he wouldn't look back on what he believed.
"Then what do we need to prepare for tomorrow when we go to that mysterious man? And do you have an idea about the identity of that female ghost? She specializes in delivering things to us, and I always don't think she's a ghost. But her body temperature and body don't look like a normal person. ”
This matter has been bothering Lin Jingjing for the past few days, her body is stiff and cold, if a woman has all these characteristics, it is difficult for people to believe that she is a living creature.
The male protagonist nodded, that day he looked at the female ghost more carefully than Lin Jingjing, his joints were stiff, his body was cold, if it was a person, he would never believe it, but if he said that she was a ghost, Jian Zhanmo felt that something was wrong, as if he had any loopholes and did not find them.
"Forget it, it's useless for us to break our heads here, if we meet the mysterious person tomorrow, these secrets may all be solved."
After a pause, the male protagonist rubbed the female protagonist's hair, "You should also go to rest early, tomorrow may not be easy." ”
I don't know why.,The female owner always feels that the male protagonist has changed a little bit about her recently.,If it was before.,The sun hasn't set yet.,He definitely won't take the initiative to let himself go back.,But now,He seems to be deliberately keeping a distance.。
Although he was forced to make a personal promise at the beginning, he suddenly changed, and Lin Jingjing still felt a little strange.
However, it was absolutely impossible for her to ask this sentence, so Lin Jingjing didn't speak, and turned around and left the male protagonist's room directly.
After she went out, the male protagonist suddenly showed a painful expression on his face, unbuttoned his clothes, and the wound on his abdomen turned black, as if he had been poisoned.
"It's so ruthless." The male protagonist sighed slightly while cleaning up the wound on his abdomen.
Originally, the injury in his abdomen was not fully recovered, and he was only deliberately hidden to protect the safety of the heroine, but he didn't expect to go to the Sheng family today, and he was taken advantage of.
As soon as he entered the room of the son of the Sheng family, he felt that something was wrong, and there was a strange fragrance in the air, if he smelled it correctly, this incense was mixed with a poisonous floral fragrance, called Banbu Bu.
This kind of flower smells a strange fragrance, no matter what kind of spice it is sandwiched in, it can make the fragrance of the spice more mellow, but she is also highly poisonous, if you breathe this flower fragrance every day, the poisonous gas will condense in the body, and it will be sick at least and will kill people at worst.
And the wound on his abdomen had not yet healed, giving this toxin a chance to take advantage of, but Jian Zhanmo didn't expect the toxicity of this flower to be so domineering, but after a while, the wound had already turned black.
This is also because he feels that the despair in the eyes of the son of the Sheng family is because he knows that he is poisoned
The reason who the person is.
Not a single window in the whole room was opened, and even if he was sick, not all the windows were closed, even the doors were tightly closed, as if he wanted to hasten his death.
But who prepared this incense?
Jian Zhanmo began to suspect the master of the Sheng family, of course, now he has not completely ruled out the master of the Sheng family, but if the master of the Sheng family wants his son to die, there are many ways, even if he is killed directly, no one will say anything, there is really no need to spend this scheming.
And the other one he felt most suspicious was the lover in the mouth of the Sheng family's son, although he didn't say it clearly, Jian Zhanmo could imagine that something unpleasant must have happened between them.
And the Sheng family's son's love for him made him rather give up his life than involve him, but in this case, Jian Zhanmo didn't understand why he asked the group to find the lake.
Could it be that other forces have infiltrated it?
After half an hour, Jian Zhanmo completely cleaned the toxins in the wound, and wrote a letter to the shopkeeper, asking him to grab the medicine according to the above prescription, and give the cooked medicinal soup to Lin Jingjing and them, only saying that he was afraid that they would be too sick.
Lin Jingjing didn't doubt that he had him, so he directly dried up the bowl, while Yurong and the others were much more cautious, and took out the silver needle to make sure that there was no poison in it before drinking the decoction.
After drinking the decoction, Xuanhe couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Jian didn't expect to know Chinese medicine, and his martial arts are so good, I really don't know if there is anything else he is not good at." ”
And now, Jian Zhanmo is doing an activity that he is not good at planting flowers.
Under his window is the flower bed, in fact, when they just moved in, there were flowers in the flower bed, and Jian Zhanmo saw that they were growing happily, so he followed the shopkeeper to fiddle with them, and the final result was what I saw today, a piece of blue-green, and not even a flower grew.
So when the shopkeeper saw Jian Zhanmo coming again with a small shovel and preparing to fiddle with the flowers, he walked over with a wry smile, "Mr. Jian, don't mess with them, what flowers do you say, I'll plant them, and promise that you can smell the flowers when you open the window." ”
Jian Zhanmo was a little embarrassed to say, "I'm sorry shopkeeper, I killed all these flowers of yours." ”
"Mr. Jane, don't say that, it's just a few flowers and plants, it's nothing, I'm afraid that Mr. will be bored when you open the window to see a green leaf." What are you kidding, this is a person who lives in four upper rooms in one go, and they are very generous, and they will give a silver dollar for a few dishes at will, and the money for these few days alone is enough for their family to live for a year.
And this Mr. Jane is also very talkative, and the other two people also make some requests from time to time, and this Mr. Jane has never made any requests, but will give him a copy of what he has done.
So Jian Zhanmo squatted in the flowers with his shovel and tinkered, I don't know what the reason is, what he does is very good, there is no chance that Jian Zhanmo, who is not good at things, has the ability to make the flowers wither, no matter how vigorous the flowers are in his hands, they can wither overnight.
Because of this reason, Jian Zhanmo always doesn't touch flowers and plants, worried about being ridiculed by others after discovering them, but there is no such worry here, and he can rest assured that he can make flowers and plants according to his own thoughts.
