Chapter 225 Inspection
Only then did Yuan Shouwei remember that Guo Xiaoke had told him about this situation.

I couldn't help but feel something in my heart. Hu Qingniu's medical book recorded: The snow clam should be slightly fishy and should not be sour and difficult to swallow.

At this moment, Li Sisheng comforted Magistrate Mu with a few words.

This matter is not mentioned.

When he returned to Li Sisheng's home, he immediately asked:
"Taoist Priest, what's going on with the poisonous hidden insect?"

Yuan Shouwei said:
"I also read relevant records in a medical book."

"It is said that this poisonous hidden insect looks like a big ant with two wings on its back. It mostly lives in the seaside and in the dark. It likes to eat corpses."

"Any animal bitten by it will have fish scale-like spots on its body and a sour smell."

Li Sisheng immediately understood,

"Taoist Priest, do you mean that the two guards were bitten to death by the poisonous hidden insect that locked up Longjing?"

But after thinking about it for a moment, he said again:

"That's not right. If they were bitten to death by poisonous hidden insects, why is there nothing wrong with the mountain?"

Yuan Shouwei frowned and said:
"That's exactly what I'm wondering about."

"And now I recall that when I came into contact with Liu Dashan, at least I didn't see traces of fish scales bitten by poisonous insects near his arms."

Then he said to Li Sisheng:

"Now the first clue can be confirmed. The poisonous hidden worm is in Suolongjing. Fortunately, you didn't go down rashly, otherwise the result will not be very good."

Li Sisheng was startled and said with some fear:

"I'm not afraid of humans or ghosts, but if I face those poisonous hidden insects, I can't even fight back. Just thinking about it gives me chills down my spine."

"Then what should we check next?"

Yuan Shouwei thought about it and said:

"The next step is to investigate the relationship between Longjing and Muming Mansion."

"Sisheng, don't you think it's a little strange? Then why did County Magistrate Mu stop your actions again and again?"

"Is it really for your own good?"

Li Sisheng still didn't believe it and said hesitantly:

"Taoist Priest, do you mean there is a connection between Suolongjing and Muming Mansion?"

Yuan Shouwei shook his head and said:
"I'm not sure, I just think there's something fishy about it."

"First, we arrived at the temple first, and he arrived right after. Coupled with the coincidences you mentioned before, I think there should be some problems."

"Instead of praying for his wife as he said."

Li Sisheng recalled his past experiences, nodded and said:

"If you analyze it this way, it doesn't seem to be a coincidence."

"Then where do we start?"

Yuan Shouwei then spoke:

"Magistrate Mu said that the snow clams her wife ate today were sour and hard to swallow."

"As far as I know, snow clams are cold in nature and have a slightly cool taste. They will never be sour."

Li Sisheng murmured to himself:
"Animals bitten by venomous insects will have a sour odor."

"Taoist Priest, do you mean that Mrs. Mu ate a snow clam that was bitten by a poisonous insect?"

Yuan Shouwei gestured back and forth on the couch in front of him and said:

"The five points of Suolongjing, Poison Chong, County Magistrate Mu, Mrs. Mu, and Xueha seem to be completely unrelated."

"But if we follow these points, we should be able to find clues."

After hearing this, Li Sisheng said excitedly:
"Except for Locked Dragon Well and Poison Hidden Insect, I can check all other things."

Yuan Shouwei said calmly:

"If my prediction is correct, you should be under surveillance. If you check, it will only expose our intentions."

"Is there anyone you can trust here?"

After hearing what Yuan Shouwei said, Li Sisheng showed an awkward but polite smile, spread his hands and said:

"Except for Lao Li, the stalker at the door, there is no one left."

Yuan Shouwei sighed inwardly, knowing that he was being picked up by Magistrate Mu, so he said:

"Then let me do it. I'll put on makeup tomorrow." "First, let's check the source of the snow clam."

Li Sisheng scratched his head and said:
"Then what should I do?"

"I always feel like a piece of trash."

Yuan Shouwei comforted him and said:

"Just do whatever you have to do as usual."

"Well, this is called the formation of suspicion to confuse the enemy. It is also very effective."

Li Sisheng nodded blankly and said with some frustration:
"I still feel like a waste."

Sisheng, although you are a waste, but you can recognize yourself, you are not too complete a waste. After Yuan Shouwei complained, he spoke again:
“Do you know where I can buy these snow clams?”

Li Sisheng nodded quickly and said:
"Know, know."

"There are two medicine shops in this city, and they all have snow clams that you should buy. They are both in the east of the city."

Yuan Shouwei breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Then this should be easier to check."

"By the way, do you have any Korean clothes?"

Li Sisheng was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted:

"You want to pretend to be a Korean and go investigate."

"I'm very confident. I've prepared several sets for the convenience of going to the border fortress."

"You should try it in the backyard, it's too cold here."

The two went to the backyard together. Yuan Shouwei picked out some clothes that fit him and put them on. He looked at himself in the bronze mirror and nodded with satisfaction:

"This man, as long as he looks good, he can look good in anything."

Seeing Yuan Shouwei's narcissism, Li Sisheng coughed dryly.

After leaving the house, Yuan Shouwei looked at the courtyard wall and said:

"Are there many people behind you?"

Li Sisheng replied doubtfully:
"It's an alley with few people. I rented this place because I thought it was quieter."

"Why are you asking this?"

Before he finished speaking, Yuan Shouwei was seen stepping onto the wall step by step in the air. He looked left and right, nodded and said:
"There's really no one. Then I'll get out of here."

After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and walked steadily step by step.

Li Sisheng was dumbfounded and watched Yuan Shouwei disappear before he said excitedly:

"What kind of Taoist magic is this? It's so beautiful."

"I must ask Yuan Shouwei for advice later."

Besides, Yuan Shouwei, who had finished playing handsome, strolled back to Li Sisheng's main entrance.

After a quick scan, he found that there were indeed two people following him, and he felt more and more suspicious about County Magistrate Mu.

He ignored the two of them and turned around to the medicine shop in the east of the city.

He pretended to be a medicinal material purchaser from Korea and chatted with the shopkeeper for a while.

Because he knew medicine, the shopkeeper also recognized him as an insider, so he politely asked him what he needed.

Only then did Yuan Shouwei ask if there were any good snow clams.

When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes suddenly narrowed and he said with a smile:
"To be honest, sir, we have a long-term supply of good snow clams."

While he was talking, he took out a snow clam from the medicine cabinet at the back and asked Yuan Shouwei to inspect it.

Yuan Shouwei looked at it carefully and said:

"The color is not bad."

"It's just that my snow clam has to be sent to the noble hands over there. First of all, the quality must be ensured, and secondly, it must be kept well, and no rats or ants can bite it."

"Also, what's the price?"

After hearing this, the shopkeeper patted his chest and promised:
"Mr. Lang, you can rest assured."

"You must know that my snow clams are specially supplied to the county government."

"This price will be given to you according to the price supplied to the county government, 50 Wen each."
