Tang Jianqiu still didn't believe this evil. He observed more carefully, so he decided to attack from the outside first.
Finally, after a long search, dots of white powder from the stars appeared in a very hidden corner;
Tang Jianqiu was suspicious. He knelt down and took out a piece of textile and gently touched the tiny amount of powder in the corner. Only then did the cloth become slightly stained.
Tang Jianqiu carefully wrapped it up and showed it to Qiao Yunsheng for inspection. It would be best if he could analyze it.
When Qiao Yunsheng saw the handkerchief in Tang Jianqiu's hand, it was the small amount of powder that caught his eye.
Seeing this, Qiao Yunsheng's brows tightened, and he felt inexplicable emotions about this.
How could there be medicinal powder here?
"May I ask Master Tang where you found it?"
He had sent people to patrol the surrounding areas, but no officer or soldier was as meticulous as Tang Jianqiu.
Could it be that something went wrong?
"Right here."
Tang Jianqiu pointed his finger, but Qiao Yunsheng hurriedly stepped forward as if he had heard some precious treasure.
Sure enough, consistent with what Tang Jianqiu said, there really is such a thing.
It's just that the effect of this thing is not known yet, and Xu Zuo or a doctor needs to check it before we can get the result.
"What did you discover, sir?"
Seeing that Qiao Yunsheng was looking fascinated, Tang Jianqiu spoke. After Qiao Yunsheng came to his senses, he gradually realized his gaffe, and then said:
"That's not true. Mr. Tang has a sharp eye, and I deeply admire him."
"Master Shangshu has given you the award."
Tang Jianqiu was not too surprised to discover this. It had been six years since Tang Jianqiu joined the Jinyi Guards, so it was not surprising that he had certain abilities;
But I am getting older and am not as powerful as before. It seems that my eyes are no longer good either.
After that, another search was launched. After a carpet-like search, Qiao Yunsheng finally discovered this strange thing. When he saw the mushroom that was shaped like a red umbrella and filled with various white spots, his eyes were filled with disbelief. Emotions.
He would not have believed it had he not seen it with his own eyes;
How could he think that? There are such evil things near Yongle Temple!
"This is...Amanita muscaria!"
The more he looked at it, the more familiar it looked. Could it be the legendary mushroom that is suspicious of causing hallucinations?
This is impossible! This product was not produced in Linyi County, so how could it appear in a place like this?
"Amanita muscaria? What is that?"
This was the first time Tang Jianqiu had heard of this name. He had heard of many poisonous mushrooms, but he was unfamiliar with Amanita muscaria.
Qiao Yunsheng's eyebrows flashed with shock, but he quickly suppressed it and explained:
"Speaking of Amanita muscaria, some people soak Amanita muscaria in water and drink it instead of wine to produce an intoxicating experience and induce hallucinations. There are some scum in the world who do such unscrupulous things in order to obtain money. !
And those beasts will use witchcraft made from mushrooms to make these people hallucinate. Once they take this hallucinogenic mushroom soup, they will have hallucinations. "
The so-called Amanita muscaria is a drug that can cause hallucinations and out-of-body experiences. It has a bright red or orange surface with white or slightly yellow granular scales;
After eating poisonous mushrooms, you will experience abdominal pain, vomiting, and a strange symptom called "hallucinations." The types of mushrooms that can cause hallucinations are called "hallucinogenic mushrooms."
"How come there is such a crooked thing here? It's really weird!"
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Tang Jianqiu wouldn't have believed it. Now Qiao Yunsheng even revealed the terrifying aspects of this Amanita muscaria.
"It's strange to say that this thing appears in this temple. It is really rare."
Qiao Yunsheng was just wondering why the Amanita muscaria appeared in Linyi County and why it appeared in Yongle Temple?
Tang Jianqiu seemed to have remembered something, suddenly he had an idea, and told Qiao Yunsheng his bold guess: "Master Shangshu! Do you think this Amanita muscaria can have a hallucinogenic effect if it is not eaten?"
"This...it's not impossible, it's just that no one in this world has ever used an alternative method to prepare it. Could it be that your Majesty means..."
Qiao Yunsheng was already good at solving cases, but now he seemed to remember something when Tang Jianqiu reminded him of it.
If Amanita muscaria can cause hallucinations, that means the ghost they saw that night might be the masterpiece of Amanita muscaria!
"But even so... Mr. Tang, if it is hallucination, how can it cause death? Even death should be just poisoning, so why would the head be taken away."
Qiao Yunsheng couldn't understand that they saw with their own eyes that man was killed by a guard wearing a python robe, and the other party's method was extremely cruel and terrifying, beheading him with one knife!
If Amanita muscaria is used to explain this point, I'm afraid it won't make sense.
Tang Jianqiu had already thought about this. He stepped forward slowly, went through the entire case in his mind, and then boldly expressed his conjecture:
"Don't you think it's strange that Amanita muscaria is placed here? Since this thing appears here and can produce hallucinogenic effects, it must be something that can scare us."
"Oh? How did Mr. Tang see it?" Qiao Yunsheng was a little curious. If it was really what Tang Jianqiu said, how should this reason be explained?
Tang Jianqiu said unhurriedly: "What you said earlier is because I am afraid because my official position is getting bigger and bigger, please remind me. I think this can indeed be confirmed.
Lord Shangshu, it is a fact that the murderer committed the murder. I think the murderer is extremely cunning and is using the words of Ji Gangzhi, the commander of the Jinyi Guards during the Yongle period, to paralyze us.
At this time, it is necessary for a man who is born with strange strength and has pretty good light skills to pretend to be a Yin soldier and put on the clothes used to bury the corpse.
This person is very good at Qinggong and is a hero in jumping. He must be using key props to make his jumping ability even more amazing. If props are used together with Qinggong itself, it will not be that difficult. What do you think, sir? "
Of course, this is just Tang Jianqiu's conjecture at present, and the truth remains to be verified.
The only thing that can be determined is that this case is no longer caused by evil spirits, but perhaps by the person who achieved a certain hallucinogenic effect through Amanita muscaria!
Seeing Qiao Yunsheng's silence, Tang Jianqiu thought that the other party didn't believe it, so he added: "I wonder if you still remember that you couldn't draw the sword at the next moment? Maybe it was not out of fear, but a temporary paralysis under the influence of Amanita muscaria."
In the next moment, Qiao Yunsheng made a move that surprised Tang Jianqiu.
He actually smiled, as if he had expected it:
"Hahaha, Mr. Tang is really good at predicting things. Please take another look at this thing."
After saying that, Qiao Yunsheng ordered Xu Zuo to show Tang Jianqiu the evidence found at the scene of the first corpse case. Tang Jianqiu was confused, but still looked at it.
This sudden move made Tang Jianqiu a little overwhelmed. He was stunned, but he quickly reacted.
"This is……"
When Tang Jianqiu saw this elastic object, he immediately understood that this must be the key prop used by the thief. This object played a certain elastic role like a bow stem separated from its string, but it was not completely consistent.
It seems that this is the spiral-shaped physical evidence!
"It turns out that your Excellency has discovered it a long time ago, so why didn't you tell me earlier?" This is what Tang Jianqiu cannot understand. Could it be that Qiao Yunsheng is testing himself?
Qiao Yunsheng just laughed dryly, and then said: "It was just suspicion at first, but now I am more convinced after seeing this Amanita muscaria. It is true that a hero comes from a young boy! Mr. Tang's appointment as the governor is a sign of humiliation."
He still admired Tang Jianqiu. If it weren't for the fact that Tang Jianqiu was a military attache, he would have really hoped that Tang Jianqiu could "inherit" his mantle and think there would be a new way out;
Tang Jianqiu readily accepted Qiao Yunsheng's compliments, but politely declined what he said:
"Master Shangshu is joking. Since I have received the Holy Grace of the Emperor and am in the position of Governor of the North Town, I should share His Majesty's worries. Tang doesn't dare to think about anything else."
"Okay! Mr. Tang, the only thing we need now is this witness. We should collect it as soon as possible."
There was one thing that Tang Jianqiu couldn't understand. Since the person who planted poisonous mushrooms in Yongle Temple proved that he had deep intentions, he certainly didn't want anyone to ruin his plan.
If he were the murderer, he would definitely keep an eye on him at all times to prevent anyone from ruining his plan and killing him!
If you want to hibernate here, the best way is actually...
"No! Leave Yongle Temple quickly!"
By the time Tang Jianqiu realized this, it was already too late. The next second, the door of Yongle Temple suddenly closed.
The officers and soldiers outside the door were immediately anxious. They tried to bang on the door in an attempt to break in, and some even kicked it violently with their hands and feet, but to no avail.
Then the officers and soldiers inside let out screams one after another, followed by the sound of corpses falling to the ground.
All the officers and soldiers opened their eyes wide, obviously unable to believe what had just happened. They could guess what happened even without going in to see.
Jin Yiwei, who came with him not long ago, was separated from yin and yang in just one breath!
The person who felt more unacceptable than them was Tang Jianqiu, and those were brothers who had followed him for many years.
Damn it! Even if we had to do it all over again, would there still be no way to save these brothers who have been through life and death?
He is ashamed of his dead brothers!
If there is no way to canonize the murderer, then his position as governor is in vain!
Tang Jianqiu was completely angry, with blue veins bulging on his forehead, and a pair of eyes that were as dark as a trance with a cold aura, as if it could freeze the entire Linyi County!
As if he had made up his mind, he walked straight ahead and declared war on the opponent:
"If you are a man, let's do it openly!"
Tang Jianqiu's eyes were frightening, as if he was ordered by the King of Hell, which shocked all the officers and soldiers.
Others saw this and hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Sir! Be careful of fraud!"
Tang Jianqiu did not reply in a hurry, but glared ahead, as if he could see through the entire Yongle Temple, his eyes filled with determination to obliterate the opponent.
I don’t know if the other party understood what Tang Jianqiu said or was really determined to fight him to the death. The next second, the door of Yongle Temple opened.
Even in the daytime, there is still a chill in Yongle Temple, like a dead body crawling out in the middle of the night, which makes people shudder.
When Tang Jianqiu was about to move forward, the officers and soldiers became anxious upon seeing this, and hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Master Tang! You can't go in!"
"I think it's very risky to go there this time. Should I wait until strong evidence is found before making a decision?"
Qiao Yunsheng knew very well that once Tang Jianqiu stepped into someone else's territory, it would be very dangerous for Tang Jianqiu to go this time. It is true that a gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years, so why is he so anxious?
Maybe someone else would have compromised, but Tang Jianqiu was not the kind of person who was willing to give up easily. He really couldn't bear the death of so many brothers in front of him!
"Even if it's for my dead brother, I have to go in!"
Tang Jianqiu had made up his mind to leave. He walked slowly towards Yongle Temple, his face full of killing intent and determination to avenge the Jin Yiwei.
Even though he knew there was an ambush waiting for him ahead, he was still fearless and walked forward calmly...
Until the moment Tang Jianqiu completely steps into the threshold, the door of Yongle Temple is closed, and what awaits Tang Jianqiu will be unknown dangers;
