Detective in the Red Chamber

Sun Shaozong shuddered, and hurriedly expelled the image in his mind, then waved his hand and said, "Let's go, act according to what I told you before."

Zhou Rui followed suit, and only then did the two servants sneak into the alley first.

Sun Shaozong and Zhou Rui followed closely behind, and behind them were five or six healthy servants carrying whistle sticks.

Sure enough, as Zhou Rui said before, during this journey, all the gates of the courtyard have been bricked up, only the two vermilion lacquer gates at the end of the alley have maintained their original appearance.

Seeing the front of the door, Sun Shaozong led Zhou Rui and others to stop, and let the two servants come forward and slap the door loudly, and shouted, "Ganniang, Ma Ganniang! We are from Rongguo Mansion, Bao Er I don't know what kind of evil has fallen on me, I want you to go over and have a look!"

After shouting, there was no movement inside for a long time. The two servants were about to shout again, but Sun Shaozong had already sensed something was wrong, so he ran over decisively, raised his foot and kicked on the gap between the two gates!

Kacha~

The thick bolt of the bowl snapped, and the door was separated from the left and right like pieces of paper, and was inserted into the wall with a bang. Even the gate building was shaken for a while, and countless tiles fell down.

Before the dust settled, Sun Shaozong rushed in, stood on the steps and looked around, and saw a long corridor close to the outer wall, with twenty or thirty oil lamps, large and small, lit inside. But there was no one in sight.

Sun Shaozong took a closer look at the courtyard wall and saw that it was flush with the front and back of the gate building. He suddenly understood, and hurriedly called Zhou Rui to order, "Where is the back door of this house? Take me there quickly!" "

Walking in that alley just now, he felt a little uncomfortable. At first he thought it was because the space was too cramped, but now that he thought about it, it was actually because someone was spying in the dark!

And the spy is hiding in the narrow passage of this courtyard wall!

It is estimated that Ma Daopo came up with such a sidewalk because she wanted to eavesdrop on a few words, so that she could play tricks in front of the guests-but she didn't want to make a mistake today and find out the warning signal in advance.

That Ma Daopo had a ghost in her heart, and when she heard that people from Jia's mansion came to the door with sticks, she naturally knew that the murder of money and death had been brought to light, so when would she not run away now?

So after Sun Shaozong found out that the situation was wrong, he immediately asked where the back door was.

Just in case, he also left four people guarding the main entrance, so as not to be attacked by the Ma Daopo.

However, two domestic servants who often come and go here lead Sun Shaozong and Zhou Rui straight to the back door. Halfway far away, they saw a few young men in pink and pink carrying a lot of gold and silver, surrounded by an old woman with white hair and chicken skin, and they were also heading there. Go to the back door.

"stop!"

Seeing the old woman, Zhou Rui couldn't help yelling, "You old witch killed our second grandma, and you still want to run away?!"

With just this voice, those young people were frightened into headless chickens, and they were about to flee in all directions.

"Don't panic, children, don't panic!"

On the contrary, Ma Daopo was calm in the face of danger, while shouting to calm people's hearts, she took out a small oil lamp from her sleeve, shook it a few times at Sun Shaozong and others muttering, and opened her mouth fiercely.

Call ~

A cloud of blue flames the size of a bamboo hat burst out from the small oil lamp immediately!

"Cough cough cough..."

Ma Daopo coughed violently a few times, and then said in a sinister way, "Whoever dares to chase after him, don't blame the old lady for using this soul-eating sky fire to burn him to death, and he will never be reborn forever!"

Seeing her cast a 'spell', Zhou Rui and the two servants who led the way, even showed a little bit of shrinkage, and dawdled step by step, but they didn't dare to move forward.

The morale of the teenagers on the opposite side was boosted, shouting the slogans of "the old fairy has boundless magic power" and "the ashes will be wiped out by force", and they rushed to the back door surrounded by Ma Daopo.

Can this be bluffed?

Seeing this scene, Sun Shaozong was speechless. It was obvious that he used rosin foam or something to perform a juggling juggling of spitting fireballs—and the old woman obviously messed up, coughing so hard that she didn't even say anything. The hair is singed!

But just like this, Zhou Rui and others were still fooled...

Forget it~

Anyway, he had already found him, and he didn't expect Zhou Rui and others to help him, so he hurriedly rushed up alone.

"Chasing... I'm catching up!"

"Old Immortal, quickly cast a spell!"

"This thief is so courageous!"

Seeing that they were approaching, those teenagers panicked again, but this time even Ma Daopo lost her composure, and pointed the lantern at Sun Shaozong in a panic, waiting for a few false threats, but Sun Shaozong would not listen to her nonsense?

Grabbing to the front, he raised his arm and wrapped it with his sleeve, and swept the little lantern out of the blue sky. Taking advantage of the situation, he pushed Ma Daopo up and down, stepped on her Shar Pei-like belly, and said with a sneer, "Say , where is the antidote hidden?!"

Before Ma Daopo could speak, he warned without raising his head, "Everyone stand still, or don't blame me for killing you!"

The teenagers hesitated for a moment, Zhou Rui and others who had restored their original surnames as Haonu followed suit, drove them to a place and put them under strict supervision.

At this moment, Ma Daopo turned her cross-eyed eyes a few times, and said sharply, "The antidote is only for me... Oops! Please, my lord!"

Sun Shaozong stepped on her feet hard, and she yelled like a toad when she stepped on it, and then sneered, "If you want to lie in front of me, Sun Shaozong, you may still owe some morality! I advise you to think it through before you speak, otherwise if……"

As soon as the Ma Daopo heard the word 'Sun Shaozong', all the lucky thoughts in her heart disappeared, her shriveled lips trembled a few times, and she finally confessed honestly, "This... this 'ghost upper body' is really nothing The antidote."

Sun Shaozong raised his eyebrows, and scolded again, "It's this time, you still dare to play tricks with me?!"

"No no no!"

Ma Daopo hastily explained, "The name of this poison is 'Ghost Upper Body'! It was originally refined by Fuyun and I for cultivation. Who would have imagined that it would be a deadly thing..."

Listening to Ma Daopo's narration, it turns out that although she is a deceptive trick, she also hopes that one day she will be able to practice some spells—especially in recent years, she has become famous, and she yearns for immortality. Fairy magic.

Birds of a feather flock together. Last year, she got acquainted with Taoist Fuyun from Xuanzhen Temple. Both of them are masters who are obsessed with becoming immortals and attaining Taoism. After coming and going, they worked together to build an alchemy furnace, hoping to refine the legendary Golden Elixir of Ascension to Immortals. Come.

As a result, the silver was smashed in like water, and a strange poison was refined. Fuyun Laodao and the two pyrotechnic boys just smelled the smell, and they were crazy and denied their relatives. They were sent back to the Xuanzhen Temple, and died within a few days up.

Because Ma Daopo was in charge of logistics, she barely escaped the catastrophe.

At the beginning, she avoided the poison refined by the old Taoist Fuyun.

But over time, Ma Daopo discovered that as long as the poison was kept in a cool place, it would not emit any smell at all. Only when it was heated to a certain temperature, would it release the sweet fragrance that could drive people crazy.

At the same time that she was doing alchemy and buying beautiful boys, and she was a little unable to make ends meet, Ma Daopo had a bad idea.

So he designed such a set of five ghosts and nightmare magic, using the temperature will gradually increase when people lie on the mattress to sleep, and then activate the mechanism of the poison, specifically to seek wealth and death in the big family's house.

It's just that although she is familiar with the way, she doesn't know the reason why this poison makes people go crazy, let alone how to treat it.

Chapter 314 The Witch Doctor, the Monk and the Mouse

"Ugh~!!!"

First there was a shrill scream, and the migratory birds on Zilingzhou were frightened, and then there were several excited shouts.

"It's done, it's really done! He can feel the pain!"

"I said this method can be done, right?!"

"Quickly, quickly, draw the dosage of the medicinal materials and the acupuncture points where the golden needles have been pricked!"

"What's so exciting? I just know it hurts, and I haven't fully woke up!"

"Besides this method, you really dare to envoy the uncle of the country?!"

"It's my turn, it's my turn, I've wanted to try this ancient recipe for a long time..."

"No, no, my medicine soup is just right..."

"still me……"

"Om, um, ni, ba, mi, hum!"

"Supreme Taiyi saves Ku Tianzun..."

"As soon as I invite God Erlang..."

"I see! I saw his soul..."

What a sin!

Sun Shaozong was on the Zhuijin Tower, listening to the chaotic quarrels below and the gradually indistinct miserable howls, he couldn't help but sighed faintly.

That day, after confirming from Ma Daopo's mouth that there is no so-called antidote for the poison of the "ghost upper body", Jia's mansion recruited a lot of imperial doctors, famous doctors, eminent monks, eminent Taoists, witches, and gods. In the provincial hospital, a joint research activity was carried out to exorcise evil spirits and treat diseases.

In addition, the Shuntian Mansion also made a contribution by contributing a unique "white mouse" to these "superior people" Chen Bo, who accidentally killed his own father after being poisoned and mad.

Although from the perspective of modern people, Chen Bo should be innocent, it is really devoid of humanitarian spirit to use him to test drugs for Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng.

but……

These days, who would care about a patricide, would he be happy to be a guinea pig?

Besides, he didn't live for a few days anyway, so if he tried to cure him like this, he might have a chance to wake up.

Moreover, it is much more humane to let a person who has already been poisoned become a guinea pig than to let Jia's mansion concoct a few more poisoned people. With the identities of Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng, this is by no means unfounded worry!

In the final analysis, it was Chen Bo who committed suicide by himself. It was not good to kill anyone by mistake, but he killed his own father. Now he has no backing at all, and he will naturally be crushed and rounded by others.

"Uncle Shi."

Sun Shaozong looked out the window in a daze, Jia Yun hurried upstairs, bowed and asked An, "It's almost noon now, I wonder what Uncle Shi would like to eat?"

Rongguo Mansion had such a big mess, and Shuntian Mansion, as a "local government office", naturally couldn't sit idly by, and it happened that Sun Sahong always participated in almost the whole process at the right time.

Therefore, after discussing with Jia Yucun, Han Fu Yin simply pushed the boat forward and sent him to stay in Rongguo Mansion temporarily, so as to meet the needs of Jia's side at any time.

Therefore, for three days in a row, he ate and lived in Zhuijin Building.

"I don't have much appetite today."

But Sun Shaozong smacked his lips, and said casually, "The three fresh bamboo shoots from the night before yesterday were good, and that's the main course. Let's get some light-tasting wine. Just two catties of 30-year-old champion red."

Jia Yun first remembered the wine and dish in her heart, and then tried to name a few dishes. Seeing that Sun Shaozong had no objection, she went down and asked the accompanying servants to pass the dishes to the kitchen.

But he himself went back upstairs again, anxiously pinching his half-disabled right arm and asking, "Uncle Shi, my father and second aunt, are they all right?"

As I said before, this Jia Yun has already recognized Baoyu as her godfather, and the reason why he can sit in the position of the chief kitchen manager now is because of the influence of Jia Baoyu and Jia Lian Wang Xifeng. I'm afraid this job won't last long.

"This is..."

Sun Shaozong can only solve cases, but he can't cure diseases and save people. How can Baoyu and Wang Xifeng die?

Speaking of...

The reason why Dream of the Red Chamber is a love tragedy is not because Baoyu died suddenly halfway, right?

Sun Shaozong's mind was wide open for a while, but after careful consideration, he felt that the plot was extremely unreasonable—now Baoyu is 14 years old, Daiyu is 13 years old, and Xue Baochai is only 15 years old. What shocking love tragedy can be made at this age ?

Even if the ancients matured early, this age is really ridiculous!

Considering this aspect alone, Baoyu and Wang Xifeng should also be able to survive.

"It shouldn't be a problem."

Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong had some reservations, and said optimistically, "After all, the poison gas inhaled by the two of them is much less than that of Chen Bo. As long as Chen Bo can regain consciousness..."

"Who are you? You...you..."

Before I finished speaking, I heard a panicked voice from below, "Let me go, you guys... what are you going to do?!"

Sun Shaozong was startled for a moment, then jumped up from the grand master's chair, and blurted out, "It's Chen Bo! He's awake!"

Except for Chen Bo, I am afraid that no one in this yard will be confused and don't know where they are!

Jia Yun was also overjoyed, turned her head and ran for a few steps to the stairs, suddenly woke up again, hurriedly turned her head and said, "Uncle Shi, let's go over and have a look!"

The cheers below were already deafening, and Sun Shaozong naturally couldn't stay upstairs anymore, so he hurriedly led Jia Yun downstairs to the small courtyard next door.

Just one foot in and one foot out of the door, but the cheers suddenly fell silent, and it was deathly silence!

Is it...

Sun Shaozong's heart sank, he hurriedly quickened his pace, and rushed into the living room that was used as a temporary experimental field.

After entering the door, I saw Chen Bo quietly lying on the bed, already completely silent.

"grown ups."

Bao Yongmeng brought a few guards close to him and reported in a low voice, "Chen Bo just woke up for a while, but he died soon."

rely on ~

Sure enough, he is dead!

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, Sun Shaozong couldn't help sighing—this guy is really unlucky, he was poisoned in a daze, and killed his own father for no reason. Didn't even understand, just another woo hoo.

but……

The biggest question right now is, was the treatment just now a success or a failure?

When Sun Shaozong asked this question, he saw the ghosts and snake gods in the room staring at each other for a long time before someone said unconfidently, "Should...it must be a success?"

"Of course it succeeded!" The other one was much more confident than him, patted his chest and vowed, "My prescription is the best proof, and it is natural that the medicine will cure the disease."

"Shit!"
