Gongsun dissected the dead crow and found that the crow had turned gray from hair to internal organs, and was dehydrated hard and seemed to be petrified.
Gongsun pulled out all the internal organs of the bird. After studying for a long time, he seemed to have found some clues and kept fiddling.
Even a bug dared to fly in around the entire yard. The little Sizi looked inside with the door.
Zhao Pu asked him, "How is your father doing?"
Xiao Sizi touched her chin. "Yeah, it seems she has some eyebrows."
During dinner, Zhan Fu brought his servants and made some hometown dishes that Zhan Zhao liked to eat to prepare supper for everyone.
Zhan Zhao asked him, "Uncle Fu, have there been too many crows in this old crow valley recently?"
"It's not just too much, it's too big." Uncle Fu nodded. "I remember that crows were not that big before. I don't know if they've eaten well recently. One or two are as fat as chickens. I guess they can't fly anymore, so I rarely come to the city."
"The crows didn't fly to the city?" Zhan Zhao remembered that when he was a child, he often saw a few crows stopping nearby to find something to eat. "When did it start?"
"About... yes... three or four years?" Zhan Fu asked a few servants.
Everyone thought about it. "It's almost three or four years old. The young master started soon after he left home."
Zhan Zhao touched his chin. "That's it..."
"Maybe the crows are fat and can't fly anymore." Several guys joked.
"Have you ever seen a gray crow?" Zhan Zhao asked. "The dead ones are OK."
Many servants looked at each other and shook their heads--never seen them before.
"The crows don't fly to the city, so there are fewer dead crows on the street." Zhan Fu answered while placing dishes and chopsticks for everyone. "To be honest, there are not only fewer crows, but also fewer beggars."
"Beggar?" Bai Yutang asked.
"Oh." Zhan Fu nodded and said, "The master's wife doesn't live much in Changzhou Prefecture. We have many old houses. There are several houses behind the house. There are all shops inside. There are no money to serve some homeless people, beggars, etc. There are many people coming and going here. There are also many people in trouble. In the past, they were all full. Every day, the porridge shop had to get up early in the morning to cook and put on porridge... but later there were fewer and fewer. Even the porridge shop was closed and I couldn't send out a few bowls of porridge a day."
"Yes," the guys nodded. "Now, I haven't seen a beggar for almost a year."
Lord Bao frowned slightly and looked at everyone.
"Wow, are you all rich in Jiangnan?" Pang Yu sighed. "I don't even have a flower. Where is the Beggars' Sect?"
"We have no other sects from the Jianghu here." At this time, Zhan Fu smiled. "The area of Changzhou Prefecture is too close to the Demon Palace. Who dares to occupy the ordinary Jianghu sect here? Therefore, Changzhou Prefecture is very stable all year round. There are very few bad things such as hooligans beating people, fighting martial artists and other weapons on the streets."
Bao Zheng nodded. He thought this was pretty good.
However, based on his years of experience as an official, a place cannot be seen by a beggar or a fleeing person for a whole year. This is absolutely abnormal.
Everyone also thought it was abnormal. At the same time, they thought of the valley used to plant flowers... Could it be that the people inside were all homeless or unfamiliar and unreasonable... so no one noticed it even if they lost it.
"Uncle Fu. Has anyone lost to Changzhou Prefecture recently?" Grand Master Pang, who was drinking tea, suddenly asked.
"Shame?"
"Well. Someone is missing and can't be found." The Master nodded. "Then someone declared the customs. But there was no echo."
"Uh. That's it...I'll go out to ask?"
The Master nodded. "I'm working hard."
Zhan Fu ran out. Bai Fu was in his spare time and followed him out to inquire.
Everyone looked at the Grand Master. Pang Yu asked, "Dad, have you discovered something?"
"Yes." The Master touched his beard and looked at Bao Zheng.
Bao Zheng glanced at him, shook his head, and said to himself - this old fox.
Everyone was confused.
The Grand Master asked, "How many people have died so far?"
"The two prefects, as well as Liu Tian's wife and concubines, and the other ones are Wang Linchun and his wife." Everyone answered.
The Grand Master nodded. "Yes. Let's remove the innocent implicated maids and the people. Let's just say that the two prefects and Wang Linchun and his wife must have known the strange flower pot in the valley. Then... the two prefects are the only ones who may have investigated. Recently, Changzhou Prefecture lost a lot of people."
Everyone was stunned.
Zhan Zhao touched his chin. "The Grand Master means that the method of murder is not the same as before. These murders have occurred. Maybe it is just to cover up the corpses and flowers in that valley?"
Master Pang smiled faintly and said, "Guard Zhan is such an honest man."
Everyone looked at the Grand Master.
Bao Zheng shook his head and said, "These cases did not hide the valley, but instead allowed us to discover the valley."
Everyone thought about it, but it was true. In every case, it was either bird shit or a grey bone mirror. It was difficult not to pay attention to Laoya Valley. Go to Laoya Valley for a while and find that valley and demon flower.
"This case is very strange. Although there is a lot of evidence on the surface, most of it is useless." Mr. Bao frowned. "We need to investigate."
During the meal, Gongsun ran back.
The little fourth son picked up food for Gongsun. Gongsun sat down and pinched his cheeks first. He called out twice, "Baby".
Everyone knew that he must have discovered it as soon as they saw Gongsun's expression.
"This is the first time I have seen such a strange poison." Gongsun spoke directly without waiting for everyone to ask.
"What poison?" Everyone was curious.
"This poison comes from those two flowers." Gongsun said. "That marrow-eating flower is already extremely toxic. These two trees are even more medicinal flowers that someone proudly planted."
Everyone nodded blankly.
Zhao Pu couldn't understand. "Barber. This is a demon flower and a medicinal flower. Is there a waist flower?"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Sizi kicked him with a flat mouth.
Zhao Pu looked at Xiao Sizi. Xiao Sizi squinted his eyes. That meaning - don't call him Shudai
"Cough cough." Zhao Pu coughed, slightly embarrassed.
However, Gongsun was in a good mood. Therefore, he didn't care too much. Then he said, "After eating the flowers, the corpse became petrified... In fact, it was not petrified, but roots. The roots of the red marrow are gray. In Changzhou Prefecture, the marrow-eating flower has no moisture. Therefore, the exposed roots become like stones and are broken as soon as they are knocked. The powder crushed by this lime is the best raw material for poison."
Everyone looked at each other. "Is it to plant flowers to make poison?"
Gongsun nodded. "This medicine is quite magical. A large amount can cause death. A small amount can cause hallucination."
"It takes a certain amount of time for people to be absorbed by tree roots. Petrochemical is also progressing slowly. During this process, people are dead. Dead people will soon turn into rotten corpses, attracting crows to come and find food. While crows eat dead people, they will inevitably not eat the root system that eats red marrow. So the crow is poisoned." Gongsun raised his eyebrows.
"So there is poison in the crow's poop, right?" Xiao Sizi asked Gongsun.
Gongsun nodded with a smile and patted his head. "If this poison does not directly touch the skin, the drug is not strong. If it is directly touching the skin, it will be poisoned. This is why the master, Mrs. Liu and Wang Linchun's wife were crazy and murdered. When the skin touched this medicine, the drug went directly into the blood, making people's blood boiling and the evil fire could not be eliminated. So it became very manic. The resentment that might have been accumulated in the body turned into deep hatred and vented."
Everyone nodded.
"What about Zhan Xiaomao and me?" Lin Yehuo pointed to his nose and asked Gongsun.
"You two didn't have direct contact. But they were also considered to be in contact with each other through clothes. Therefore, you two were just slightly poisoned." Gongsun smiled. "In fact, there were rumors that you would be unlucky when you were touched by bird shit. Most of them were because slight poisoning would make people's reactions slow and their memory would become bad. To put it bluntly, they would be distracted."
Everyone thought about it. It seemed that that was the case.
"So that's how it is..." Zhan Zhao touched his chin and glanced at the little Sizi who was eating beside him - it was fake. But the little Sizi's ability to predict is real. It's really magical.
"What's going on with that gray crow?" Bai Yutang asked.
"This is the key point." Gongsun became excited. Everyone was speechless. The more Gongsun talked about something strange, the more excited he became.
"That's the case," Gongsun said seriously. "If you take this medicine powder and apply it to the body, you will have two effects."
Everyone was stunned.
Master Pang touched his chin. "There is still such a saying?"
Gongsun nodded. "If you take it directly, it will make people feel energetic and have a sense of hallucination and excitement. The efficacy of the medicine is probably similar to that of drugs like Wuyou San."
Everyone frowned.
"Oh... So it's this kind of thing." Pang Yu shook his head.
"But applying it on the body will make you feel another hallucination. It can make you manic." Gongsun hugged his arm. "But one problem is that if you take it for a long time, you will become addicted. Therefore, you need to take it frequently. Once it stops one day, then..." Gongsun pointed to the bird cage in the distance.
Everyone opened their mouths - it was right. The crow kept eating and eating. Wouldn't he die if he didn't eat it?
"No wonder the crows are so fat," Bai Yutang said. "Crows do not have human wisdom. They don't know that what makes them addicted is the roots. They only know that they will feel comfortable after eating rotten corpses. Then they try their best to eat the human flesh... so they get fatter and fatter. This one has nothing to eat after being caught. So the poison dies."
Gongsun clapped his hands. "I analyze. That's it."
Everyone frowned.
"This kind of medicinal powder made of red-eaten marrow-eating flower roots can be processed into many other things." Gongsun held his chin and said. "It is a good medicinal material. It depends on how people use it well. It can cure diseases and relieve pain. If it is not used well, it is like those crazy murderers. It is a tragedy."
"No matter who transformed this Laoya Valley into a flowerpot, and so many people were used to plant flowers." Mr. Bao touched his beard. "But the fibrous root of this flowerpot can be said to allow the other party to have endless gold and silver and endless harm. Therefore, the person who planted flowers must be found out."
"It's a pity that all the relevant people involved in the case were dead." Zhan Zhao sighed. "That Xu Mengyao seems to have a good relationship with Wang Linchun. Will she know something?"
"It's dark." Bai Yutang reminded him. "Youhu should be back. Let's go find it?"
"Uh..." Zhan Zhao thought for a while and glanced at Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang looked at him in confusion.
Zhan Zhao said. "Then what. Don't go."
