Chapter 20 Scratch Your Little Nose
Chapter 20 Scratch Your Little Nose
Later, the solution that Xie Qixing and Baili Tusu thought of was useless, because Zuo Mingzhu came out of the room by himself when everyone had dinner together in the evening.
"Mingzhu, these are the two young heroes who solve the affairs in the mansion." Seeing Zuo Mingzhu came to the living room, Zuo Qinghou couldn't blame her in front of everyone, so he introduced Xie Qixing and Baili to her Tu Su.
Zuo Mingzhu glanced over several people, paused on Xie Qixing, his eyes lit up slightly, nodded and said: "I have seen the two young heroes, and I have seen Chu Xiangshuai."
"Mingzhu, have you drank the medicine prescribed by Mr. Jian Zhai?" Given that the people in front of him were all young men with outstanding looks, and among them Chu Liuxiang was known to please women, Zuo Qinghou was a little worried and coughed asked aloud.
Zuo Mingzhu shook his head and said, "It's not too late."
"Then go drink the medicine first, the body is the most important thing." Zuo Qinghou said solemnly.
"Okay, Dad." Zuo Mingzhu turned and left without saying anything.
Zuo Qinghou nodded in satisfaction, and when he was about to speak, he saw that the table in front of everyone moved inexplicably, and fell to the ground together with the dishes on the table, smashing into pieces.
"It's coming... it's coming again!" Zuo Qinghou tremblingly said, showing the same terrified expression as the servants who were serving at the side.
Xie Qixing frowned, raised his hands, quickly drew a few seals in the air, and then waved lightly as if pushing something, a light with some strange symbols shrouded from the air, and This abnormal movement disappeared without a trace in an instant.
No trace.
This shot immediately made Zuo Qinghou and others present change their faces, and then most of the stone in their hearts finally fell.
"Xie Shaoxia." For Xie Qixing whose abilities had been verified, his eyes were obviously more respectful, "What happened to my family?"
Xie Qixing said: "There are still some clues, but it will take some time to investigate."
"Since the two young heroes know what's in their hearts, I won't say any more." Zuo Qinghou laughed, "Everyone is still hungry, why don't I ask the servants to serve the dishes again."
"No need, Master Zuo, cultivators shouldn't eat these whole grains." Xie Qixing glanced at Baili Tusu, "My junior brother and I still have some things to discuss, so don't bother us if you continue to eat." He said "Excuse me" to Chu Liuxiang and walked out with Baili Tusu.
"Brother, how are you?" Baili Tusu asked after stopping at the other party not far from the living room.
The seal technique that Xie Qixing performed just now is not only for exorcising evil spirits, but also for detection.
"There is something supernatural, and it came from the backyard where Miss Zuo lives." Xie Qixing said, then frowned slightly.
"However, Miss Zuo's aura is pure, without the slightest evil spirit." Baili Tusu interjected, also puzzled by this, "Could it be that some evil spirit broke into the backyard?"
"No, I think there is something weird about Miss Zuo." He mused, "People who practice the Tao don't eat five grains because eating five grains will produce turbidity, which is not conducive to cultivation. Ordinary people, at most, will at least be contaminated with some turbidity. , Take us cultivators as an example, we can't guarantee that the breath on our body is clean."
"Well, it's really weird to say that." Thinking of the pure and flawless aura on Zuo Mingzhu's body just now, Baili Tusu's expression became much more serious.
Xie Qixing nodded and said: "If things go wrong, there must be a demon." He looked at the little junior brother who put on a serious look, and suddenly felt teasing in his heart, so he stretched out his hand to scratch his tall nose bridge, and said with a smile : "Don't worry, just wait until night to find out."
"Brother!" Baili Tusu was angry and anxious.
Xie Qixing looked like he had succeeded in a prank, and smiled even more happily.
"Master, master!" A servant hurriedly rushed into the living room from outside, with a look of panic on his face, "Outside...something happened outside!"
Xie Qixing and Baili Tusu looked at each other, and they immediately followed the boy into the room.
Seeing the young servant's flustered look, Zuo Qinghou frowned and scolded. "What happened, in a panic, what kind of dignity did the distinguished guest see!"
The boy nodded obediently, with the look of fear still in his eyes, he said: "Master, a male corpse was found beside the pool not far from the villa."
"Male corpse?" Zuo Qinghou looked up at him, seeing his terrified look, paused his tone, "But what's so weird about that male corpse?"
"The male corpse's face was pale, his body was curled up, and the skin on his whole body was as dry as bark... Anyway, his death was very strange." His voice was trembling, and his face suddenly turned pale, "Master , his eyes are still wide open...does he not die with peace in his eyes?"
"Okay! Don't scare me here." Zuo Qinghou frowned and waved his hand, "Go down first."
Seeing the young man backing away tremblingly, Zuo Qinghou looked at the few people present with dignified faces, and asked: "Listen to what my servant said, the dead man died very strangely, the two young heroes , Xiangshuai, why don't we start to see what's going on?"
All three nodded, and when they were about to leave, they saw a figure suddenly rushing out from the side, and said loudly, "Wait!"
"Doctor Zhang? Why did you come out?" Zuo Qinghou looked at the person who suddenly appeared in surprise, then made a gesture, pointing to Xie Qixing and the others, "These two are experts I invited to solve the matter, and That one is the famous Xiangshuai."
Chu Liuxiang glanced at the man, and said with a smile, "Isn't the genius doctor Zhang that the second brother is talking about, Mr. Jianzhai, a famous doctor in Jiangnan who is known as 'one finger judges life and death'?"
Zuo Qinghou nodded: "That's right." A look of gratitude appeared in his eyes, "Thanks to Dr. Zhang, my daughter's illness was cured."
However, as soon as he said this, Zhang Jianzhai's face changed slightly, showing a very reluctant smile: "I'm so proud of you."
"..." Xie Qixing sized him up without leaving any traces, and frowned slightly.Zuo Qinghou was praising him for his superb medical skills, even though the other party was a famous doctor who listened to good things more quietly, he would never show such a far-fetched expression.
"There's no need to say hello, just listen to the boy." Zhang Jianzhai's gaze paused for a moment on Xie Qixing and Baili Tusu, and then he walked out, "It's not too late, let's go and have a look first."
Several people looked at the back of him leaving in a hurry, Zuo Qinghou first sighed: "It seems that the weird male corpse aroused the curiosity of Doctor Zhang. I heard that all famous doctors are like this, and they like difficult and miscellaneous diseases in the world."
He didn't take Zhang Jianzhai's weirdness to heart, but Xie Qixing and the others who were present had clearly remembered his strangeness in his heart.
"Second brother, since Mr. Jian Zhai has already gone, let's hurry there too." Chu Liuxiang's eyes flickered, and he said with a smile.
Xie Qixing and his team rushed over, while Zhang Jianzhai was already squatting beside the corpse, carefully inspecting it.
The appearance of the male corpse was indeed in line with the boy's description, and it also exuded a stench.Baili Tu Su frowned slightly, lifted his black robe, and squatted down.However, he didn't look at the corpse with his hands, but just passed it carefully with his eyes, and then stood up.
"Brother, this corpse seems to have been sucked by some monster." Baili Tusu said in a low voice beside Xie Qixing, with a serious expression on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Jianzhai stood up beside him, his face pale and ugly.
Pointing to the male corpse, he said to the crowd: "This man died of ejaculation."
Zuo Qinghou and all the servants who came to watch were in an uproar.
"Would there really be a monster around here?" Someone whispered, with a bit of panic in his tone.
"I think so too. It must be a monster that seduced this man, harvesting yang to nourish yin!"
"Okay, don't jump to conclusions before the truth comes out!" Zuo Qinghou yelled loudly, with a bit of annoyance in his expression, and all the servants were silent when they saw it, but there was still a look of panic in their eyes.
A male corpse with a strange death caused everyone to panic, Zuo Qinghou also had a very headache, he couldn't help looking at Xie Qixing and Bai Bai.
Li Tusu, "You two masters, this should..."
"Take the corpse back first." Xie Qixing paused for a moment on Zhang Jianzhai, who had a strange expression, and said calmly.
In desperation, Zuo Qinghou had no choice but to do so.
"Senior brother, that old Mr. Zhang is acting strangely, there must be some strangeness in it." Baili Tusu and Xie Qi walked behind, looking at Zhang Jianzhai who was staggering slightly in front of him.
"This is the end of the matter, what he wants to hide can no longer be hidden." Xie Qixing looked leisurely, "Go to him to ask at night." After finishing speaking, he took another look at Chu Liuxiang who was walking behind them with a pensive expression on his face. .
"Master Chu, why don't we go together?" Xie Qixing raised his eyebrows.
Chu Liuxiang came back to her senses, raised her brows and said, "Of course it's good."
Twilight deepened, and night finally came.The huge Throwing Cup Villa has not yet been lit, and the autumn wind blows, rolling up the dead branches and leaves all over the place.
The entire villa was silent, and even the servants who walked around were pitifully few, as if they had been frightened by the man's corpse found in the daytime, for fear that some lonely ghost would come and harm them life.
Xie Qixing and the others just walked to the door of Zhang Jianzhai's room, before knocking on the door, the door opened with a loud "squeak".
Zhang Jianzhai's face was very pale, like a lonely wandering soul.His eyes were bloodshot, and his expression looked very haggard. He stared at the three of them quietly for a while, as if he understood something, he gave up his seat.
"Come here." He said in a low voice, and several people walked into the door. Before they sat down, they heard him say in a trembling and fearful voice: "Actually... Actually, Miss Zuo died six days ago. Already!"
