Every plant and tree in the Li family's house was the same as before. Hua Ruxue had lived here for a month, so she naturally remembered the route, so she sent away Lin Feng and Li Buyu, who had become brothers at first sight. These two people were really an eyesore.
When I walked to Li Zangzhi's residence, I saw two elegant young masters playing chess under the graceful peach blossom tree. It should be a pleasant scene, but Hua Ruxue felt strange for some reason.
Ever since I became suspicious of An Murong, I felt strange every time I saw him.
"Master Li San." Hua Ruxue took a few steps forward and broke the silence around her.
The breeze carried the peach blossoms and slowly fell, and the two players in the game looked up at the same time.
When An Murong saw her, he put down the chess pieces in his hands excitedly and looked at her as if he saw a savior.
"Sister Xiaoxue!"
"Young Master An." Hua Ruxue called out respectfully, but her eyes remained on Li Zangzhi.
Li Zhizhi's face was rosy and radiant. It was completely unimaginable that this person was still lifeless last month, almost exhausted.
Li Changzhi stood up and responded distantly: "Miss Xiang."
Hua Ruxue was keenly aware of the alienation in his words, but she didn't take it to heart. She just wanted to complete the task. She put on a straight face and said solemnly:
"Don't be surprised if you suddenly come to visit Young Master Li San. I heard that Third Young Master's cultivation level has returned to the foundation building stage, so I came to congratulate you. This recovery speed is far faster than ordinary people. This is also the first time for me to detoxify from this poison. I am worried about leaving hidden dangers, so I thought Get pulse for Third Young Master."
She deliberately didn't mention Li Chu, just in case Li Zangzhi would be bored hearing the name, but she never thought that Li Zangzhi was still frowning, obviously unhappy.
When she left, Li Changzhi was still somewhat grateful and admired her. Why did he hate her so much now?
Before Li Zangzhi could speak, An Murong spoke first:
"Sister Xiaoxue has superb medical skills. I have never heard of this kind of underworld. Ah Zhi, please let sister Xiaoxue take a look at it to avoid any hidden dangers."
Seeing An Murong accurately say "the moment of hell", Hua Ruxue shook her head helplessly, and Li Zangzhi was afraid that she had told An Murong everything.
Fortunately, An Murong stayed at the Li family's house and never went out, otherwise the reappearance of the ghost clan's poison would have caused a storm in the city.
"This poison is extremely rare. I hope Young Master An will not talk about it to outsiders."
When passing by An Murong, Hua Ruxue lowered her voice and said with a hint of warning, hoping that An Murong would have some self-awareness and control his mouth.
An Murong covered his mouth tightly with both hands, looking frightened, and kept saying yes.
Hua Ruxue checked Li Changzhi's pulse in a business-like manner. The pulse was strong and strong, without any abnormality. It would not be long before his cultivation level would be completely restored to its original state.
As expected of a big family, it has top-notch financial and material resources. In just two months, it has brought people from the brink of death to the current vitality.
This cannot be achieved by detoxification alone.
Hua Ruxue accidentally caught a glimpse of the chessboard. On the chessboard, the white chess piece was defeated, but it still won.
Sensing her gaze, An Murong pointed at the chess game and said triumphantly: "Azhi and I played ten games, and I won nine! I'm a great chess player!"
Although she didn't know how to play chess, based on An Murong's rules, she was sure that she could win.
I always thought that Li Changzhi, like Su Yi, was impartial, but it turned out that my heart had long been biased.
After confirming that Li Zangzhi's body was fine, Hua Ruxue was not in a hurry to leave. She wanted to know why Li Zangzhi suddenly began to alienate and dislike her, and had a big quarrel with Li Chu.
She thought that her performance was good and there were no omissions, and there was a life-saving grace in front of her. Today, she was disliked by the target. This was not good news.
If Li Zangzhi were asked directly for the reason, he would probably ignore it.
"I still remember that when we first met, Master Li San was also wearing moon-white brocade clothes, sitting under the peach blossom tree and holding his son. Young Master An also defeated San Shao nine games like this today." The flowers are as bright as snow. With a nostalgic look on his face, he pretended to recall the scene carefully and said randomly.
That day Li Zhizhi was wearing
He was wearing thick mink fur, his cheeks were pale without a trace of blood, and only his narrow eyes were shining. He fell with the white piece in his hand and defeated Li Chu.
The person playing chess with Li Zangzhi was not An Murong, but Li Chu.
Hua Ruxue secretly observed Li Zangzhi's expression, waiting for Li Zangzhi to refute her words so that she could take the next step, and then follow the clues to figure out why Li Zangzhi suddenly changed his attitude.
But he saw Li Zangzhi looking at the chess piece in his hand, and the gloom on his face swept away with a smile.
That look clearly confirmed her words.
Her words were full of loopholes, but Li Zangzhi seemed not to notice them. Instead, he echoed her words and said, "Brother Rong's chess skills have always been like this. I was lucky enough to win a game."
"It turns out that Young Master An's chess skills are so impressive and admirable." Hua Ruxue turned to look at An Murong and complimented, her smile not reaching her eyes.
She was sure that there was nothing wrong with her memory. Why didn't Li Zangzhi refute her wrong words?
Is it dismissive, or is there something wrong with his memory?
How can we get some of the past things she knows out of Li Zangzhi's mouth? Do you want to use phantom fragrance?
An Murong, who was sitting aside, had cold sweat on his forehead and looked a little flustered. He lowered his head and started to clear up the chess game with strength and calmness.
Hua Ruxue took An Murong's strange look into her eyes. After thinking for a moment, she picked up a black chess piece and sighed, "You two young masters, please don't go out in the past few days."
"Why? What happened outside?" An Murong held the chess piece's hand for a moment and asked attentively.
"You two young masters don't know anything. I just returned to Guanyun City a few days ago and found that someone had planted the poison again. I'm afraid the poison was caused by the same person. Before catching the poisoner, The two young masters, especially Young Master Li San, must not leave the house."
When she mentioned "Another moment of death", An Murong's hand shaking the chess piece shook and the black chess piece in his hand fell to the ground.
"Young Master An, don't be afraid. This poison seems to be aimed at Young Master Li San. As long as Young Master An and Young Master Li San keep their distance, they won't be accidentally hurt." Hua Ruxue said pretending to be worried, and after saying that, she saw Li San Zhu Zhi's hand that wanted to get closer to An Murong stopped in mid-air.
Hua Ruxue didn't have any consciousness of talking nonsense, her face didn't turn red and her heart didn't beat. Anyway, only a few of them knew that at the moment of death, who was poisoned was not a matter of her opening her mouth.
It's a pity that she can't use this as bait to lure out the poisoner, otherwise she could be more proactive.
The shadow behind her became a little lighter in the sun. She carefully put the black chess piece infused with shadow in her hand into the chess basket. With this shadow clone around, she would be able to detect any abnormalities on Li Zhizhi's side in the future. I knew it all at once.
"Master Li San, do you still remember the scene in seclusion? Maybe the person who poisoned you is one of the people you have met." Seeing the hesitation on Li Zangzhi's face, Hua Ruxue continued to increase her efforts, "Catch him as soon as possible If someone poisons you, you and Young Master An will be safe as soon as possible."
Now that things have happened, Hua Ruxue also understands how to pry open Li Zangzhi's mouth. As long as she talks about An Murong, Li Zangzhi will still say what she needs to say, even if she hates her.
She likes this feeling of "others don't like her, but they have to do what she wants."
Li Zhizhi clenched his left hand into a fist, and a cold light flashed in his narrow eyes, obviously unwilling to recall those things.
He said: "That year, I lost to my eldest brother in the family competition and lost the opportunity to enter the secret realm. After watching my eldest brother leave, I began to retreat to form alchemy. During this period, no one came close to me."
Family competition? Lost to Li Chu? Lost the chance to enter the secret realm?
Hua Ruxue looked at Li Zangzhi in surprise. His expression of sadness did not seem to be fake, but what he said was different from what he said before.
When asked about what happened to Li Zangzhi before and after the retreat, he said: His cultivation level was not up to the golden elixir and he could not enter the secret realm, so he started the retreat months in advance to break through, but unfortunately he could not catch up. Li Chu took the other juniors to the secret realm and missed the opportunity to protect Li Changzhi.
There was no family competition at all, let alone losing to Li Chu. Li Chu and Li Changzhi were so far apart in realm that anyone with a discerning eye could see who was stronger and who was weaker.
There was no sign of poisoning on Li Zhizhi's body
Xiang, his eyes were clear and his mind was not under control. There should have been no problems with his body, but now his memory was uncharacteristically confused.
Why is this?
"I didn't mean to mention Young Master Li San's sadness. I hope Young Master Li San won't be surprised." Although Hua Ruxue felt creepy, she still followed Li Zangzhi's words.
The outsider who was closest to Li Zangzhi these days was An Murong. The only suspect she could think of who had a hand in Li Zangzhi's body was An Murong.
But she didn't have any evidence to prove that An Murong had tampered with it.
Now in front of An Murong, she could only pretend that she didn't notice anything.
Hua Ruxue stared at An Murong closely, hoping to find some clues from him, but she saw him put away the chess pieces and returned to his affectionate appearance.
"Don't worry Ah Zhi. No matter where you are from now on, I will definitely accompany you and never let you be alone."
Just when Li Zangzhi raised his eyes and smiled, planning to say something to An Murong, Li Buyu appeared at the right time and whispered a few words in his ear.
Li Zhizhi looked at An Murong with an apologetic look, and said softly: "Father calls me, I'll go and come back."
After Li Zangzhi followed Li Buyu and left, Hua Ruxue changed her cautious attitude and sat unceremoniously in Li Zangzhi's seat.
"Sister Xiaoxue, what else can you do?"
Facing An Murong's flattering and proud smile, Hua Ruxue felt that she had never understood the person in front of her.
The warm wind blew, and a few pieces of peach blossoms fell on the chess game. She twisted the peach blossoms, crushed them into dust and raised them.
The rising incense dust was also mixed with a scent that made people relax their guard and make them feel trance-like. She mixed the phantom scent with the floral scent, hoping to confuse An Murong and get the news she wanted.
All phantom incense has a shortcoming: it has no effect on people with a firm mind.
"Young Master An is staying with Young Master Li San. Do you know that there is something wrong with his memory?"
An Murong lowered his eyes slightly, changing from his previous incomprehensible appearance. The arrogance in his eyes faded away, his eyes became a little colder, and the black mole on the tip of his nose radiated a chill in the warm sunlight.
He seemed to have been enchanted by the phantom fragrance, lowering his guard and being bewildered. But his eyes were as calm as dead water, as if to say: He has never been so awake as now.
"What did you do to him?" Hua Ruxue asked again. Seeing the change in An Murong's eyes, she understood that the phantom fragrance had an effect.
If you are possessed by an illusory fragrance, you will never lie.
It seems that An Murong knew about Li Zangzhi's memory confusion. Did he do something wrong to Li Zangzhi?
Is the purpose to seek Li Zangzhi's blessing? Or something else?
An Murong raised his head and looked at the blooming peach blossoms calmly, without answering. After a long time, he asked a puzzling question: "Will the peach blossoms bloom next year?"
She didn't know whether the peach blossoms would bloom next year. She just wanted to find out what An Murong did to Li Zangzhi.
Based on Li Zangzhi's trust in An Murong, even if she teamed up with Li Chu to tell Li Zangzhi that there was something wrong with his memory and he had to stay away from An Murong, Li Zangzhi would never believe it, and it would be counterproductive.
"Don't worry I won't tell anyone else about this."
Seeing that she couldn't get the answers she wanted from An Murong, and couldn't find any signs of poisoning or mind control from Li Changzhi, Hua Ruxue had no choice but to give up.
She was afraid that if she pushed someone too hard, it would lead to a fatal outcome.
"If you want to stay here, then feel free to stay."
After that, Hua Ruxue released the effect of the phantom fragrance, and the arrogant look in An Murong's eyes recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
