Genius Poisonous Concubine: Fourth Miss Against Heaven

Chapter 165 Determined to Thoroughly Investigate
Yu Wenzheng shook his head slightly, and said with a deep voice: "Like Kui only survives in the desert of Loulan. And because people hunt and sell Lei Kui, many years ago, the imperial court issued an edict prohibiting the smuggling of Lei Kui."

"So..." Jian Yunling suddenly understood something.

"Someone secretly captured Lei Kui, skinned the animal alive, and threw the body to the bottom of the river." Yu Wenzheng added the second half of the sentence for her, his black pupils covered with threatening hostility.

Jian Yunling followed his words and analyzed: "Then these corpses rotted and polluted the water in the entire river. After drinking the water here, people in the surrounding villages and towns began to get sick and die one after another. They were drinking from the same river. So it wasn't a plague at all, but poisoning."

Now that the cause of the disease is known, it is much easier to prescribe the right medicine.

Jian Yunling told Guo Lizheng, who had just vomited faintly, to write down everything they said, and immediately sealed off the wells in the town after returning home, so that the people would no longer be allowed to drink water from the wells, and went to the river to make a bamboo tube of water Let him hand it over to Ji Zimo.

And Yu Wenzheng will not forget another thing.

"Dong Yun, go and check for this king immediately, and see if there is any place nearby that is smuggling Kui skin, and report back immediately after finding it!" Yu Wenzheng's voice was as low as a messenger who came from the ground, which made people shudder.

The air at the scene seemed to be frozen, and no one dared to take a breath.Fu Dongyun was about to leave, but Guo Lizheng said weakly: "There is a black market selling all kinds of animal skins in Danfeng Town not far from here. I seem to have seen such strange animal skins there."

Fu Dongyun stopped immediately when he heard it, and tilted his head to observe Yu Wenzheng's reaction.

Sure enough, Yu Wenzheng's eyes that looked like a secluded pool of cold water suddenly retracted, and his sharp eyes that seemed to be able to see everything in the world swept towards Guo Lizheng.Guo Lizheng instantly felt a pair of big hands tightly strangling his throat, and fell silent.

"Since Guo Lizheng has seen it, you don't have to go to Dongyun. Tomorrow, let Guo Lizheng lead the way, and I will go to Danfeng Town to take a look in person." After speaking, he turned the wheelchair and walked away with the wind in his robe.

Fu Dongyun led the rest of the guards to follow, and Guo Lizheng staggered after him, caressing his heart.

Jian Yunling slanted her lips, lowered her eyes to look down at the corpse of Lei Kui, which was covered by white cloth again, and sneered.After a while, he walked away.

At noon the next day, Yu Wenzheng and Jian Yunling only took Fu Dongyun with them, and followed Guo Lizheng to Danfeng Town.

In order not to reveal their identities, they made a special disguise.Guo Li is pretending to be the old housekeeper, Fu Dongyun is still their bodyguard, Yu Wenzheng is pretending to be a wealthy businessman in the capital, and Jian Yunling is the wife of a wealthy businessman.

Fu Dongyun got a luxurious satin carriage from nowhere, let Jian Yunling and Yu Wenzheng get into the carriage, and he and Guo Li were driving in front of the carriage.

After leaving Qulan Town, several towns along the way were infected with the plague.Many unrecognizable people covered in pus and blood lay moaning helplessly on both sides of the street. When they saw a carriage passing by, they tremblingly stretched out their hands covered in mud, just to beg for a little food to satisfy their hunger.

Flies and insects were flying around piles of white bones on the street corners, and some unclaimed corpses were left alone in the middle of the road. A pair of eyes that had already lost their vitality were wide open unwillingly, as if they were accusing the unscrupulous world.
