Zen Strange Records

Chapter 198 Speculation
"Don't make it so harsh, we are partners now, so I naturally want to guarantee your personal safety." Su Ying smiled, threw the bamboo slips in her hand on the ground, and went to search for another scroll, but she didn't know looking at something.

"Forget it, it's all right." Ye Xiaosan didn't intend to pursue further, and had to say that with the girl here, he did have a lot of confidence in his heart: "You said he just died not long ago, how could it be possible that the body has rotted like this? It's out of shape."

"What's the fuss? Look at the color and smell of his blood. It's obvious that he has been poisoned with a strong corrosive poison. At least I know of a strange poison called Maoerxiao. The poisoned person will lose consciousness first, almost After a stick of incense, the body will gradually decay, and it is impossible for a god to save it."

Mao Erxiao?What a weird name, upon hearing this, Ye Xiaosan suppressed his nausea, and looked down at the blood on the corpse. Just as the girl said, there was a trace of turquoise thread mixed in the originally dark red blood, and the smell of blood , mixed with a sour smell similar to vomit, this smell is extremely peculiar, the girl should be the type of poison based on this, but thanks to her being so far away, she can smell it.

Ye Xiaosan muttered something, and was about to get up, when a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind, and he vaguely recalled that he followed the man in black not long ago. The man in black had indeed waited for about a stick of incense after receiving the bamboo slips. , just turned around and left, could it be that he had already killed the killer at that time?
After telling the girl her conjecture, Su Ying pondered and stopped rummaging: "I see, it is indeed possible. Mao'erxiao's body is a catkin-shaped light green object that melts when exposed to the wind. , spread along the wind, and the poison should have been poisoned when the two handed over the bamboo slips, but what good will it do him to deal with this place?"

"Do you know what this place is?" Ye Xiaosan couldn't help asking in amazement, as she seemed to know this place very well from the girl's tone.

Su Ying looked at Ye Xiaosan with an alien expression on her face: "You don't even know about this place, do you? This is the famous Shanhai Palace."

"Is it very famous? I do know the Classic of Mountains and Seas."

"Hmph, ignorance." Su Ying supported her forehead with a headache, and finally left the bookshelf she had been leaning against, walked a few steps forward, and came to the corpse, glanced at the corpse casually, and pouted: "This person It should be Xu Wen, the administrator of this place, I have met him twice."

As she spoke, the girl pointed to the countless bamboo slips around her: "The so-called Shanhai Palace is a huge organization spread all over the world. Their biggest function is to collect and draw maps of the world. Because they like to use bamboo slips and do work It is exquisite and well-known in the world. Think about it, it is easy to get lost when you go out, so most people will choose to buy some of the required maps at Shanhai Palace in case of emergency. In the end, this is A detached organization with which there is no room for enmity.”

To put it bluntly, isn't he just a map seller?Ye Xiaosan rolled his eyes. His name was so domineering. Ye Xiaosan thought it was some kind of hidden sect. However, what the girl said was indeed reasonable. It was impossible for a large organization that sells maps to have a grudge against anyone. It must have been killed by an angry buyer because the map was sold too expensive.

No, when I mentioned business, I thought of the 1000 taels that I had just defrauded. Ye Xiaosan covered his chest with heartache. It was really a mistake that would lead to eternal regrets.

Su Ying took a strange look at Ye Xiaosan who was suddenly in pain, maybe because she hated the smell of putrid corpses, after only two glances, the girl continued to rummage through the vast bamboo slips.

Ye Xiaosan couldn't understand why, but he waited patiently. After all, since he came to Nanhuai City, so many things happened, extremely complicated, and he really needed to think about it.

"Do you guys have any opinions?" So I didn't realize that we have a think tank. Although Ku Jiang and Xiao Die are almost the same, Shang'er still has a lot of ideas.

As a result, as soon as I thought about it, I was instantly slapped in the face. The first person to ask a question was actually Xiaodie: "I am still very familiar with the words of Shanhai Palace, because I often get lost. Cough, this is not the key, the key is Nanhuai The Shanhai Palace in the city is one of the five largest strongholds in the south. There are many rare and rare copies here that have never been found elsewhere. What good."

"Who are you? Where did you hide Xiaodie!" Abnormal, too abnormal, that nervous Xiaodie can actually say such logical words, it is possible that he is hallucinating, what he heard just now All hallucinations?

"Hey! Don't underestimate me. After all, I'm also one of the Ten Sages of Tianque. I've been in the rivers and lakes for many years, so I still have this analytical ability."

"Cough, it's my fault, I'm so excited." Ye Xiaosan laughed in embarrassment, jokes are all jokes, Xiaodie's thinking did help him, and when he talked about the benefits that the murderer can get, Ye Xiaosan took a look. The huge amount of well-preserved bamboo slips around is unlikely to make money, and it is impossible for the two people who just made a deal not long ago to have any deep hatred, so the most reliable guess is that the man in black took it. A bamboo slip is related.

Speaking of the bamboo slips of Shanhai Palace, nine out of ten of them should be maps. Is there any map that people would not hesitate to silence and don't want others to know?

"Zangzhen Palace!" Just when Ye Xiaosan faintly revealed a trace of the truth, Su Ying said suddenly, Ye Xiaosan was taken aback, unexpectedly, the two thought of going together.

"It seems that you have guessed it." The girl glanced at Ye Xiaosan's unsurprising expression: "I said that I don't hesitate to silence and don't want people to know what map I took. Such important area information, and then think of it. The secret compilation of mountains and rivers can only be associated in this way."

"Indeed, it is very likely that the other party knew further clues about Zangzhen Palace, so he came here to ask for the map of that area, and then in order to prevent the news from leaking, he silenced the person who sold the map first. Well, an unexpected order People are convinced."

"It's a pity that there are too many maps here. Even if we search them all, it is impossible to know what the other party has taken. Instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, it is better to find the man in black who attacked you." While talking, the girl Still concentrating on rummaging through the bamboo slips, suddenly, the girl's eyes lit up, and a rare joy appeared on her calm face: "I found it!"

When Ye Xiaosan heard this, he looked over and saw that the delighted girl was holding a roll of green bamboo slips that was more delicate and compact than the other bamboo slips. The bamboo slips were tied with a light golden silk thread. What Fanpin: "Is this some kind of martial arts secret book?"

"No, this is a limited commemorative album for the [-]th anniversary of the founding of Shanhai Palace."
