When people encounter their own safety, they will always burst out with an astonishing desire to survive. Following Liu Ningshi's cry, with just a cup of tea, the remaining guests in the pavilion will almost arrive.
"Girl, what evidence do you have that the guests of Zhuyan Hall are the murderers of the poison?" A group of guests aggressively blocked all the roads in front and behind the Zhuyan Hall. The leading guest stared at Liu Ningshi and asked.
"My young master drank the Spring Night Brew from that man in Zhuyan Hall, and he became like this." Liu Ningshi pointed at Tong Bo, who was leaning on the railing, his whole body blackened, his face a look of pain, and he was crying until he was like a pear blossom. Yu: "Look, the young master was put in this state by him, and these slaves stopped me from asking for the antidote."
"This man seems to be the fourth son of the Minister of Industry's family. He did enter the Zhuyan Hall before he burned the incense." A guest who followed behind and met Tong Bo confirmed.
"That's right! I saw it too." The guests gathered behind him also echoed, and everyone was so excited that they rushed towards the Zhuyan Hall where Zuo Tianhao was.
"Dear guests, please be patient." Two maids in traditional skirts guarding the door of the Zhuyan Hall tried their best to block the guests, lest anyone break in.
"How to be safe? How to be calm?" The leading guest in the crowd seemed to be suddenly ignited with anger in his heart: "In the past few days, people have been poisoned and died in the pavilion? We are trapped in it because of the poisoner! "
As the crowd surrounded the Zhuyan Hall, Liu Ningshi found an opportunity to slip out of the crowd, quietly helped Tong Bo up and retreated slowly.
"Girl, well done!" Tong Bo cast an approving look at Liu Ningshi: "This way we can hold these two people down."
In the Zhuyan Hall, Zuo Tianhao and the man in black heard the shouts. Although they stopped attacking, they still glared angrily, neither of them willing to compromise first.
"Scorpion? Why did you attack the distinguished guests on the fourth floor?" It was Mu Hanlei, the shopkeeper of Xuanzang, who had just shouted to stop her. She was the first to speak and questioned the man in black.
"A distinguished guest on the fourth floor?" The man in black smiled coldly and said righteously: "Anyone who poisons the guests in the pavilion will be punished by everyone."
"Fart!" Zuo Tianhao was furious in an instant. He raised his right palm and shook it: "Did your eye see that it was Zuo who administered the poison? Besides, if you want to kill people, this palm alone is enough, do you need to use poison?"
"Then I would like to ask your Excellency, why did the young master with a pockmarked face turn black all over and lose all his strength after drinking your Chunxiao Brewing?" The man in black asked coldly.
"Me?" Zuo Tianhao was speechless when he was asked, and secretly thought in his heart: "Who is this person, who has the courage to break into the Zhu Yan Hall and play this trick of framing the blame?"
"It's not good, it's not good!" Just as the two were confronting each other, a maid in an undergarment skirt ran in in a panic: "Shopkeeper, the guests in Xuanzhong didn't know where they heard that the young master of Zhuyan Hall is the next one. The murderer of the poisonous murder is now gathered in front of the door and clamoring for an explanation; the guards on the first floor seem to have been alerted, and someone has already left the building to find the steward."
"Hahaha! Since you have been poisoned, of course you have to pay the price." The man in black walked downhill to the hall door, and did not forget to turn around and joked: "You have to bear the sins you have done."
"You bastard! How dare you say such sarcastic words." Mu Hanlei couldn't help but get angry after hearing the words of the man in black, and was about to explode.
"Han Lei, let him go." Zuo Tianhao knew that he would not get any advantage if he continued to fight, so he stretched out his hand to stop Mu Hanlei and endured the bad breath.
"Go and stop all the troublemaking guests." Mu Hanlei vented all her anger on the maid in the undershirt: "If you let one person in, I won't be able to spare you."
"Yes!" The maid in the undershirt looked at Mu Hanlei with a cold look on her face. She shivered with fright, nodded repeatedly, and quickly exited the hall.
"Tong Bo, it must be Tong Bo." Zuo Tianhao suddenly thought of something and shouted suddenly: "I should have thought of it earlier. Who else but him would dare to break into the Zhuyan Hall with such arrogance and play such a dirty trick? .”
"Tianhao, are you okay?" Mu Hanlei looked at Zuo Tianhao who suddenly shouted, thinking that he was talking nonsense, and asked with concern.
"It's okay, of course it's okay!" Zuo Tianhao stroked Mu Hanlei's soft and boneless jade hands and said to himself: "The two traitors, Li Hongxi and Xu Houfei, plus the bear, couldn't kill Tong Bo. This person is really a cockroach.”
"Tianhao, who are you talking about Tong Bo?" Mu Hanlei asked after seeing that Zuo Tianhao was conscious and not talking nonsense.
"He is from Zuocheng." Zuo Tianhao mentioned Tong Bo with a look of hatred on his face, as if he wanted to eat him alive: "This man has great abilities, cunning methods, and is also proficient in the art of disguise. He is extremely difficult to deal with. .”
"Hidden Left City?" Mu Hanlei showed an incredulous expression: "That shouldn't be the case. The rules of the Hidden City are strict. How can the people inside be so easy to move around in the world?"
"Okay, Han Lei! You're not from the Hidden City, do you know it better than me?" Zuo Tianhao seemed to not want to continue to dwell on this issue: "Now is not the time to discuss this. The original priority was how to solve it. Trouble out there.”
"But these guests have a distinguished status, so you can't use force on them." Mu Hanlei has been a shopkeeper for many years and has encountered many difficulties, but this is the first time he has seen it like this, and he has no idea for a while.
"Capture the thief first! Capture the king first!" Zuo Tianhao is worthy of being used to seeing large battles. He immediately thought of a countermeasure: "Han Lei, go outside and see who is the leading guest, and bring them all in. The remaining trash fish must be kept out of the hall."
"Okay! I'll go take a look right now." Mu Hanlei seemed to have full trust in Zuo Tianhao, and walked out of the hall after listening to his instructions.
"Girl, have you found the room Wang Junchen booked in Xuanzhong?" Tong Bo, with Liu Ningshi's support, quickly arrived at the end of the fourth-floor corridor.
"Young Master, you can think of it." Liu Ningshi pursed her lips and smiled. She had a very high vision and couldn't help but admire Tong Bo's cleverness: "After two days of investigation, I found that Wang Junchen's original room was on the third floor of Tianzi Twenty. Number seven.”
"Okay! Let's go quickly." At this time, Tong Bo and the trembling and weak-looking person just now judged the two of them, and they were the first to shuttle down the stairs between the third and fourth floors.
"Master, Miss Yanran is still in the Guanlan Hall, do you want to take her away with you?" Liu Ningshi was halfway through when she suddenly thought of this question.
"No need to bother! Miss Yanran is safer staying in Guanlan Hall than following us." Tong Bo shook his head: "With Zuo Tianhao's ability, this little trick of diverting trouble to the east can't be hidden for long, and we are not in direct conflict with him now. when."
"Although the rooms on the third floor are not as good as the Guanlan Hall, they are still unique." Liu Ningshi entered Room No. 27 of Tianzi and couldn't help but sigh when she looked at the simple and natural interior.
"Shh!" Tong Bozhong put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture. He was already walking back and forth in the room, looking carefully.
"Yes!" Liu Ningshi was obedient and responded softly, then chose a futon and sat down slowly to recharge her batteries.
"Boom!" When he reached the same position as Guanlan Hall, he pushed against the wall, and a secret door opened as expected.
"Sure enough, it still doesn't work!" Tong Bo looked at the tight wall behind the secret door, shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to let it close slowly.
"Is this the secret door that Young Master mentioned before?" Liu Ningshi lowered her voice: "Did the man in black who broke into Salba's room escape through the secret door?"
"Hey! That's right!" Tong Bo sighed softly and sat down slowly on the futon opposite Liu Ningshi: "But now I still can't find a way to enter the secret door."
"Is the young master's medicine really harmless to the maids?" Liu Ningshi asked softly: "No matter what, giving that kind of medicine to girls..."
"Girl, don't worry." Tong Bo understood what Liu Ningshi meant and said with a smile: "This can't be called medicine at all. It's just a little black dye mixed in ordinary Ruanjin powder. In less than three days, those girls The dark spots on your body will disappear completely and you will be back to your original appearance.”
"That's good!" Liu Ningshi seemed to be relieved and smiled: "The symptoms of this medicine look very similar to that of scorpion venom. How could the young master have it?"
"Hey! When I first saw that this medicine could prank people, I got it from an old monster by hard work." Tong Bo couldn't help but smile when he thought about how he used this medicine to prank others: "I didn't expect that it can be used now. use."
"The girl is kind-hearted." Tong Bo changed the topic: "Even if this is a small punishment for them, Salba's death is not their fault, but it has nothing to do with them."
"Young Master, are you saying that they also want Salba's life?" Liu Ningshi asked in surprise: "But they have no grudge against Salba, why do they do this?"
"Girl, why did you choose the maid in Xuanzhong to use the medicine?" Tong Bo suddenly asked Liu Ningshi a question she had never thought of.
"If you want to blame Zuo Tianhao, why would you attack the maid?" Even though Liu Ningshi was extremely smart, she was puzzled for a while and could only shake her head.
"I wonder if the girl has discovered a strange phenomenon?" Tong Bo said with a smile: "For several days, only the guests were poisoned in the pavilion, but everyone including Mu Hanlei was fine. Is this reasonable?"
"Young Master is saying that poisoners only attack guests." Liu Ningshi nodded. She had always felt that something was wrong in the past few days, but now she suddenly realized it after listening to Tong Bo's words.
"It's not that the poisoner only attacks guests." Tong Bo shook his head and said another way: "What if the poisoner reached an agreement with Mu Hanlei for some reason not to attack the maids in the mansion?"
"Mu Hanlei conspired with the poisoner to poison the guests?" Liu Ningshi had never thought about this before, and couldn't help but shake her head after hearing Tong Bo's inference: "This seems unlikely, Mu Hanlei did this , whoever dares to come here in the future, won’t the signboard of Ziyanxuan be destroyed?”
"I also thought it was strange at first." Tong Bo continued: "But did the girl find out? Since then, Manager Pei has surrounded Ziyanxuan, clamoring to find the poisoner, and then disappeared and never appeared again; and Xuanxuan However, the guests in the house were grounded because of this, and they died one after another, causing people to panic. Is there anyone who can take care of it during this period?"
"Young Master, are you saying that all of this was done intentionally by collusion between the pavilion and Mu Hanlei?" Liu Ningshi felt shuddering after hearing Tong Bo's analysis.
"I can't think of any other explanation other than this." Tong Bo said coldly with a determined look on his face, "That's why Miss Cai asked the maid to use medicine, which not only confirmed the inference, but also caused an internal fight between them."
