Mu Yunzhou suddenly realized: "Yes, we have never woken up so late before."

"So, what do you mean?" Lin Shuyao seemed to understand what Shen Qingxu meant, and then thought about the death of the proprietress and Lin Yifeng's daily habit of smoking tobacco!

Thinking hard!

Shen Qingxu nodded and continued, "Incense and tobacco, people who often smoke tobacco, how can they not know that the tobacco has been spiked with something!"

"It's not easy to put this drug into the tobacco he smokes without his knowledge!"

"But what if that person knew?"

"Or maybe he put it there himself..."

"Who would put drugs in their tobacco for no reason?"

"I heard that there is something in the South Barbarians called Wushisan, which can cause hallucinations and make people feel ecstatic after taking it!"

"You mean... Lin Yifeng knew about it?" Mu Yunzhou's eyes widened, a little puzzled, "Aren't these two a couple? Why are they harming the person next to them? I just heard that this couple has a very good relationship!"

Mu Yunzhou had only heard of people killing their wives for immense wealth and power, but he did not understand why Lin Yifeng wanted to deliberately kill his own wife!

Shen Qingxu put down the teacup in her hand and glanced at the opposite side: "Not bad, a good idea, but maybe it's not voluntary, or it's forced."

Mu Yunzhou considered himself to be very smart, but when faced with this case, he still had no clue and could only frown.

Perhaps seeing Mu Yunzhou's worry, Shen Qingxu said: "It's not hard to understand. Lin Yifeng is more or less related to the inn we are staying in."

"Then what should we do next?"

"What else can I do? Just keep guard."

Shen Qingxu did not return to the inn, so the others stayed at the Mingyue Tavern. Because the scene upstairs was a bit horrifying, they had to find a few seats downstairs.

Shen Qingxu had trouble falling asleep at night. She lay on the table with her head buried in her arms, but she still couldn't fall asleep.

Suddenly, a strange fragrance filled the air. Shen Qingxu recognized it immediately after just a little sniff. It was the scent of the incense.

It’s been a long time coming.

Shen Qingxu wondered who had placed the aphrodisiac incense.

Just then, she felt footsteps getting closer and closer to her, and finally stopped beside the table. She clenched a knife in her hand and was about to fight to the death, but someone got there first.

The loud crash shook everyone awake.

Shen Qingxu looked up and saw Xu Xingyi holding a man in black by the collar and banging him against the wall.

After all, he was afraid of killing someone, so Shen Qingxu hurried forward to stop it.

When they stopped him, they saw that the mask of the man in black had already fallen off, and a not very pretty face appeared in the public's view.

He was spitting out blood from his mouth. Through the moonlight outside the window, his face was extremely pale. Bright red blood was sparsely spread all over his cheeks, and finally formed a blood net. The man suddenly burst into laughter, spitting out blood while laughing.

"Hahahahahahaha, everyone who knows what I look like is already dead. Looks like you won't live long..."

He laughed crazily and didn't seem like a human being. In other words, he had long lost his human form.

After turning on the light, Qingfang found that it was not particularly bright, so she took the night pearl.

A closer look revealed that his face was covered in dirt and his skin was damaged. There was no doctor present, so it was impossible to determine whether the pustules were contagious or not.

However, if it is really contagious, this madman should have gone crazy a long time ago and would not have made such big talk here.

Shen Qingxu asked, "Why did you kill Lin Yifeng and his wife?"

The man in black used his mouth covered with blood to answer with disdain: "Oh, them? They all deserve to die, but I didn't kill them. You caught the wrong person. I just drugged them."

Shen Qingxu frowned and asked, "You didn't kill them? Then wouldn't it be unnecessary for you to drug them?"

The man in black was not at all flustered by this question. He still looked indifferent and contemptuous: "Oh, since I drugged you, there must be a reason for it. Do you think any Tom, Dick or Harry can pry open my mouth?"

"Hahahaha!"

Shen Qingxu was the first to shout: "He wants to bite his tongue to commit suicide, stop him quickly."

The man was about to bite hard, but Xu Xingyi pinched his cheek and saved him from death.

If he dies, even his accomplices won’t be known.

Although he saved his life, in order to prevent him from biting his tongue to commit suicide, Shen Qingxu asked Xu Xingyi to remove her jaw, and then knocked him unconscious and took him to the inn.

When the people in the inn saw several people carrying a person back, a trace of panic flashed in their eyes. Even though it was only for a brief moment, Shen Qingxu and the others still caught it.
