She realized that the problem was not the nourishing cream, but the mysterious woman.

Lin Meng carefully examined the nourishing cream, which simply smelled of animal and plant oils and propolis.

When she applied medicine to Xiaoyu just now, she also checked the symptoms of the wound.

Looks more like a drug reaction.

She recalled the scene carefully. The woman stayed between the two of them for a while, and that was where the problem lay.

The mysterious woman flicked her sleeves before going upstairs, so she poisoned the person at that time.

"What a poisonous heart!"

Unexpectedly, this nourishing cream almost got blamed.

Lin Meng clenched her fists. She was determined to settle this account.

Lin Meng picked up a pen and wrote a letter and tied it to the leg of the carrier pigeon.

Half an hour later, Li Chunqiu received a letter from his servant. He frowned and ordered several people to do something secretly.

After Lin Meng settled Xiaoyu, he paced in the yard.

I happened to see Arong walking towards the study in a hurry.

"Arong?"

Lin Meng's sudden voice surprised A Rong. He didn't expect that the young lady would take the initiative to talk to him.

"Miss? What do you want from me?"

Ah Rong was confused. He had important matters to report to Mr. Lin, so he couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Ah Rong, how is the investigation of the drug powder going?"

Ah Rong calmly replied, "I was just about to report to the master, and now there is some progress."

Lin Meng was a little surprised when she heard it, "Oh? But are there any clues?"

"Excuse me, Miss, please move to the study. The master has been waiting for a long time."

A Rong replied respectfully.

He knew that the young lady's current status meant he couldn't just refuse her directly. In that case, it would be best to see what the master thought.

After hearing this, Lin Meng understood that A Rong was going to reply, so she nodded and walked towards the study.

Old Master Lin was worried and anxious about the matter of the herbal medicine shop and was already a little restless.

He was in the study waiting for Arong's investigation results.

Mr. Lin was not expecting to see Lin Meng and A Rong arriving together.

This daughter is at least still of some use now, so Lin Changan did not deliberately avoid her.

"Master, there is some clue."

A Rong was the first to report.

Mr. Lin smoothed the wrinkles between his brows slightly and said in a deep voice:

"what happened?"

Seeing this, Ah Rong explained the results of his investigation in detail:

"In reply to Master, I followed the clues and found that the powder mixed in the herbs was brewed from a flower from a strange area. This flower is called Beauty Bone."

Lin Meng didn't expect that when A Rong said this name, Lin Changan's reaction was shock.

"Beauty bones?"

Lin Meng searched her memory. She had seen this flower in medical books.

However, there are only a few mentions of it in the book.

It was as if he was stuck in a dead end in an instant, and Lin Meng didn't know what to do.

She was about to ask Lin Changan for his opinion, but saw him standing there in a daze, as if he had lost his soul.

"father?"

Lin Meng called out softly.

Lin Changan seemed to be mesmerized by something and did not respond to her.

Seeing this, Asong also shouted, "Master?"

Lin Changan woke up only after hearing Arong's loud cry.

Lin Meng felt that there was something strange about Mr. Lin’s condition. Could it be that he knew about this “beautiful bone”?

Lin Meng asked carefully:

"Dad, have you ever heard of this beauty bone?"

Her tone was full of anticipation.

When Lin Changan heard his daughter's words, his face turned solemn.

He got up from his chair, put his hands behind his back, walked slowly, and told a story.

“The strange area is in a corner in the west of the low-level world. It is cold all year round, but there is a kind of flower that never withers.

That kind of flower has a light blue color and exudes a feeling of coldness and aloofness, so its name is called beauty bone.

There used to be a place called Luoluo tribe in the strange area, where there were particularly many beautiful human bones.

Clusters of flowers gathered together, and when the wind blows, they look like a blue ocean.

Legend has it that if a small amount of this beauty bone is taken and boiled with other medicinal herbs, it will become a miraculous medicine to save lives. However, if too much is ingested, it will become a deadly poison.

I passed by there when I was young and an apprentice. It was really beautiful.

But then... no one saw him again."

Lin Changan sighed deeply when he said this, and Lin Meng felt confused.

"Dad, why is this?"

Lin Changan raised his head and glanced at her indifferently, his tone gradually becoming low.

"Later, not long after, I heard that the people of the Luo Luo tribe disappeared overnight, and the place became a wasteland. They disappeared from the world from then on. Therefore, many people have never heard of it now, and the beautiful bones have completely disappeared from the world."

Lin Meng's eyes widened. She didn't expect the story to be so shocking.

She couldn't help but wonder what was going on there.

Why did the Luoluo people disappear overnight?

Out of curiosity, Lin Meng connected the Luoluo tribe and the incident at the herbal medicine shop together.

Why did the once stunning beauty bones reappear after so many years and appear in the Lin family’s herbal medicine shop?

There are simply too many questions.

Lin Meng felt her mind was in a mess and she felt a little helpless.

Lin Meng's eyes were dull, as if he was thinking about something.

Lin Changan said:

"Meng'er, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lin Meng came to his senses and shook his head.

"There's no dad. I'm just a little surprised. What a pity."

Lin Changan narrowed his eyes, perhaps he also felt regretful about this.

Lin Meng was lost in thought, and suddenly remembered something.

"Dad, do you know Si Niang from Yue Lai Inn?"

After hearing this, Lin Changan shook his head.

"do not know."

After hearing Lin Changan's refusal without hesitation, Lin Meng felt a little worried.

"Since Dad discovered the poison in the herbal medicine shop, there have been so many strange things. Even Xiaoyu was poisoned for no apparent reason. I think someone is deliberately targeting the Lin family."

Lin Changan's face was expressionless, but after hearing that Xiaoyu was also poisoned, he was obviously unable to suppress his emotions.

If that person was coming for her, he shouldn't have harmed others. Now he has even reached out to her daughter, so she must not get involved in this matter.

"Meng'er, let Arong do this from today. I heard from the servants who came back that the antidote from yesterday was not enough. You just need to focus on distributing the antidote now, and don't worry about anything else."

Lin Meng wanted to continue asking, but was rejected.

Seeing how Mr. Lin was doing, he probably didn't want her to know too much, so she stopped being persistent.

At the very least, you should stop being persistent in public, as it will not do you any good.

"Okay, Dad, I understand."

She nodded slightly and then left.

"Beauty bones, blue flower sea, herbal medicine shop, mysterious woman..."

Lin Meng came out of the study, muttering to himself.

What is the connection between them?
