Rebirth of the Demon Queen

Chapter 180 Medicine Field

Without waiting for Xie Xi's answer, Lin Zisu continued: "That's because these corpses were poisoned before death. Even if they are exposed in the wilderness, crows and flies will not dare to approach them."

The guards went out and walked around, and each of them had one or more farm tools in their hands. Behind these guards, there were also people in the town.

After the leader of the imperial guard gathered the guards, he saluted Xie Xi and explained the purpose of the people's visit: "The young ones have commandeered all the farm tools in this town. They were afraid that they would not find anyone when they turned around, so they all gathered together."

's followed."

Today's trip was originally intended to be kept secret, but these people gathered around, and no matter what was dug up in a while, it would be spread.

Xie Xi was originally extremely dissatisfied with the arrival of these people, but after hearing what the leader of the guards said, he waved his hand gently and ignored them.

As the guards took action one after another, the bodies buried in the medicine field were dug out.

In the beginning, there were still rotting and mutilated corpses, but later, what was dug out were dead bones one after another.

Just now in the basement, Lin Zisu didn't dare to make a conclusion. Now as the body was exhumed, it was fully understood. Beidi people regarded this place as a base for experimenting with poisons. Ordinary doctors, even when testing drugs, would choose

mice, rabbits and other small animals.

But here, living people are used.

In less than an hour, the guards dug up hundreds of corpses from the medicine field. Some of the bones were white and some were mutilated. They looked like they were old at first glance.

The people who live here can definitely be from Beidi, so where do these medicine people come from?

The old man just knelt down and begged. Seeing that the two guards were unmoved, he hugged one of the guards' thighs and refused to get up.

Lin Zisu first winked at Xie Xi, and then walked towards the old man. A dozen steps away from the old man, Lin Zisu stopped and said from a distance: "This old man, you are from this town.

Human?"

Suddenly there was a cry of pain from the crowd, and then an old man stumbled towards the medicine field, crying loudly as he ran: "My poor Ah Wu, I have been looking for you for two months.

!”

However, thinking that Lin Zisu was his savior after all, he reluctantly squeezed out of the crowd, walked a few steps forward, stood still, bowed respectfully, and said, "I've seen Miss, what's the matter with Miss?"

Xie Xi looked at him with obvious concern. Lin Zisu smiled at him and said, "I'm just asking a few questions, you don't have to worry."

Lin Zisu's eyes were full of worry and she looked at Xie Xi. However, Xie Xi secretly reached out and patted the back of her hand a few times to express comfort.

The guards were still turning over the soil in the medicine field, constantly digging out new bones from the soil.

When the old man saw Lin Zisu dressed up, he smiled again, which was completely different from the cold expressions of the guards. He lost a lot of fear, and said in a trembling voice: "The old man's surname is Wang, and he is the tofu in this town."

At the store, my fifth son went out early last month to deliver tofu, but he has not seen anyone yet. I heard that someone was buried here, so I wanted to come and see if my fifth son was here."

Mrs. Tian Zhang did not expect that Lin Zisu was actually a noble person in the capital. Seeing that Lin Zisu was surrounded by fierce guards, she was also extremely uncomfortable smelling the stench that filled the mountains and plains.

Not far away, more and more people gathered to watch. Those who arrived later did not know what happened and asked others about the story.

When the two guards saw Xie Xi's confused expression, they were about to drag the old man away. Lin Zisu said first, "This uncle is so pitiful. I'll go ask him."

The old man Wang refused to leave. Lin Zisu said to the two guards: "He doesn't want to leave either. You two just stay here and watch him!"

If any common people dared to offend like this on normal days, the guard would have already taught him a lesson. But now that Xie Xi was present, he did not dare to make a mistake and secretly glanced towards Xie Xi.

The two of them were more than twenty steps apart, and it was very inconvenient to talk. Lin Zisu asked Lv Ying to follow her, walked towards Madam Tian and Zhang, and when she got close to Madam Tian and Zhang, she felt that Madam Tian and Zhang looked at her differently, so she turned around and

He saw Xie Xi and Lv Ying following him from left to right.

Lin Zisu pointed to the medicine field and said: "Look, old man, it's a mess here. I'm afraid it's hard for you to find it. Please wait for a moment. After it's tidied up, you can identify it again."

Old man Wang knelt on the ground and burst into tears. He stretched his neck from time to time and looked into the medicine field.

Xie Xi immediately ordered two guards. One guard returned to the palace to report the situation and explain the detailed situation to the emperor; the other guard took his assassin to Jingzhao Mansion to report the case.

Xie Xi had no interest in such farce. He saw that the guards stopped what they were doing and waited for him to give the order.

The old man ran while crying, walked closer, jumped among the corpses in Yaotian, and pretended to look at the corpses. Two guards nearby saw such an uninvited guest suddenly intruding, and immediately dropped what they were holding and dragged the old man away.

Out of the medicine field.

After she finished speaking, she turned back to Xie Xi, shook her head slightly, and said: "This is a scandalous case, and it involves Beidi. We don't have enough people. I'm afraid we have to go to Beijing for help as soon as possible."

When the people in the town heard about the commotion in the medicine field, they also gathered in twos and threes. In less than a quarter of an hour, more than a hundred people gathered.

When Lin Zisu saw Mrs. Tian Zhang timidly following the crowd, she immediately waved to Ms. Tian Zhang and said, "Madam, please come over here for a moment."

Lin Zisu suddenly felt shuddering. This was the capital of Dayan, and such a place actually appeared.

More than three feet of the map in the medicine field has been turned over, and the guards haven't stopped yet and continue digging.

According to Tian Zhang, this group of people has been entrenched in Shili Town for more than ten years. Whether they occupy such a large area or use medicine to test poisons, there will always be some trouble. Why doesn't the nearby government report anything?

Xie Xi nodded, but still followed Lin Zisu closely. Lin Zisu approached Tian Zhang and asked, "Auntie, let me ask you a few questions. You must answer me truthfully."

Mrs. Tian Zhang nodded and heard Lin Zisu ask in a low voice: "Have you seen any of those outsiders in the town these past two days?"

Tian Zhang was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and said: "Since this place became empty more than half a month ago, I haven't seen those strange people anymore. In the past two days... I thought there was still some value here.

I secretly came over and looked through my things..."

As she spoke, she looked around secretly, and then said: "Speaking of strange things, there was no one here at that time, but I heard some strange sounds."
