God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 224
Hearing this, Zhang Youju and others were stunned.

Duhe stood here and said he was not there?

Why does it sound so strange.

Zhang Youju said with a dazed expression, "Uncle Huyi, don't make fun of us."

Du He smiled and said: "I'm not joking, I'm telling you very seriously, Du He is not here, and I am not Huyi county uncle, you have found the wrong person."

As he spoke, Du He waved his hand: "Bring the food to the brothers!"

I saw a few cooks from the cafeteria pushing a trolley up. There was a box on the cart covered with a cloth. When the cloth was uncovered, there were seven or eight dishes that were still hot.

Zhang Youju wanted to refuse, but his stomach growled, and he couldn't care less, so he took his subordinates to eat.

After eating, staff from the canteen of the furniture factory came to take away the bowls and chopsticks.

Zhang Youju was full. He felt that the food eaten by the workers in the furniture factory was even more delicious than those in the palace.

The person next to him whispered: "My lord, Du He is clearly here, why do you say that you are not there?"

Zhang Youju thought for a while, "This is a very complicated issue. I haven't figured it out yet. In short, Du He is not here... Since he is not here, let's wait. He will always come back."

That night, Zhang Youju and others sat and slept at the gate of the furniture factory.

……

The night is deep.

Du He stood in front of the window, not feeling sleepy at all.

The matter of sudden death from playing mahjong has not yet been resolved, and the censors and ministers joined him in the DPRK and China. If this matter is not handled well, it will be a big trouble at that time.

"What the hell, this young master just wants to keep a low profile, make a fortune, and make a fortune in silence. Unexpectedly, these guys can't sit still...Hmph."

click.

The fan in Du He's hand was broken at once.

He casually threw the broken fan out of the window.

creak.

The door was pushed open, Zhang Jian got in and quickly closed the door.

Du He turned around and hurriedly asked, "Any news?"

When the two came to the table, Zhang Jian said: "Master, as you expected, there is indeed a problem. I just sent someone to check. Of the eight people who died, except for the two who died first, the bodies of the rest were normal. Six people died of poisoning!"

boom.

Du He slammed his fist on the table: "Bastard!"

Zhang Jian continued: "I quietly went to look at the old senior Sun. The poison is rather strange. After taking it, it takes an hour to take effect. Therefore, when those dead people enter the mahjong parlor, they are alive and well." Yes, but after playing for a while, it will suddenly die suddenly, and the corpse will not show any abnormalities within a few hours, but it will take half a day before it will turn blue and purple, and abnormalities will appear."

In less than half a month, eight people died playing mahjong. Du He felt that this incident was strange at the time. Even if he went to the Internet cafe every night, so many people would not die.

Therefore, he sent Zhang Jian to arrange for Fang Fang to go to Dali Temple to check the corpse.

After this investigation, there is indeed a problem.

Du He said coldly: "Continue to investigate, even if it is the king of heaven, I will be caught by this young master. Hmph, in order to deal with me, the people behind the scenes actually attack ordinary people. It is really unreasonable. This matter is beyond the law of heaven."

Zhang Jian scratched his head and said, "Now, the family members of the deceased have smashed our mahjong parlor, and the trouble is getting more and more violent. They say they are going to sue us at the Chang'an County Government."

"Let them make trouble. Before the truth is known, you can make trouble anyway. The most urgent thing is to find the person who poisoned you." Du He analyzed.

"I understand, master!"

Du He got up and said: "Let's go, success or failure depends on tonight, Zhang Youju is timid, but His Majesty will definitely send other people tomorrow, and by then, he will have to go to the palace."

Zhang Jian nodded: "Master, everything is ready."

……

The gate of the furniture factory.

The closed fence gate suddenly opened with a clatter.

hooves.

hooves.

Several fierce horses rushed out from behind the door, galloped up the official road, and quickly headed in the direction of Chang'an City.

Zhang Youju and the others hurriedly stood up, but they could only see a few figures from their backs.

Someone nearby reminded: "My lord, just now, I seem to have seen Du He, he ran away on a horse!"

Zhang Youju thought about it carefully, then shook his head: "What are you looking at? You must be dazzled. Du He is not in the furniture factory at all. Go to bed quickly and talk about it tomorrow."

Not long after, Du He and others arrived at Xinghuafang.

Today, more than 80 mahjong parlors in Chang'an City are all closed.

Only the two remaining in Xinghuafang are still open.

The first incident of sudden death while playing mahjong happened in one of the mahjong parlors in Xinghuafang.

Even so, there are still people here to play mahjong.

The reason is that Xinghuafang is the largest gambling house in Chang'an City, where all kinds of gambling people gather. These gamblers can give up their lives for gambling, let alone playing mahjong.

Du He led Lu Bu and Zhang Jian into the store, while the others scattered and hid around.

Entering the mahjong parlor, Zhang Du hurriedly greeted him.

Since this was one of the last two mahjong parlors to open, Zhang Du came to watch in person for fear of further accidents.

At this moment, there are a total of ten tables in the mahjong hall, and six of the tables are full.

Du He asked, "When did these people start to play?"

Zhang Du said: "It started in the morning, eating and drinking, all of which are here."

Du He found a place to sit down, took out a hat from behind and put it on, and the place where he was sitting was just in the dim light, so no one would recognize him if he didn't look carefully.

Du He beckoned: "Don't stand still, come here and rub a few hands with me first, what should come, will always come."

Zhang Jian and others hurried over, gathered four people with Du He, and started playing mahjong.

After half an hour passed, everyone couldn't sit still, but Du He looked indifferent, as if he really came to play mahjong.

At this moment, four people walked in the door, beckoning Xiao Er to find a mahjong table for them.

Du He made a look, Zhang Du went up to meet him personally, and invited the four of them to a private room next door.

wow.

Du He threw the mahjong in his hand: "Lu Bu, work!"

Lu Bu slipped into the private room and knocked the four people unconscious with a few bangs.

At the door, Zhang Wei has hurried over with Medicine King Sun Simiao.

As soon as Sun Simiao entered the door, he said anxiously: "Oh, Huyi county uncle, don't kill me, playing mahjong will cause poisoning."

Du He laughed and said, "Old Sun, as the king of medicine, are you still afraid of death? It's all rumors about playing mahjong and getting poisoned. Let's take a look at the situation of these people first."

"it is good!"

Sun Simiao took off the box on his back, took out several silver needles, and inserted them into the throats of the four stunned people.

After a while, he took off the silver needle and took out a fist-sized jar from the box.

Sun Simiao soaked the silver needle in the jar for a while, took it out and looked at it, his expression changed drastically: "No, these people are all poisoned, and something will happen in less than an hour!"
