The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 179 Clues

Lin Zisu changed her address at first, and the address was not very smooth. The word "His Royal Highness" almost blurted out, but fortunately she responded in time, and immediately changed it to "Fourth Brother".

This change of words was quite obvious, and Xie Xi naturally heard it too, but he was delighted to hear the "fourth brother", so he didn't care about the small flaws in it, and said with satisfaction: "Come on! Go over there!" Yaotian, go and have a look!"

Xie Xi was only focused on giving orders, but he didn't expect that all the imperial guards had just been sent out. At this time, apart from the two of them, there was Lin Zisu's personal girl, Lve Ying.

Only two people could stand on the high platform, and Lve Ying had to stay at the bottom of the platform. She was afraid that this absurd King Dun would take advantage of her young lady, so she kept looking up and watching the movements of the two of them all the time.

Ever since she was with Yang Xingyao, Lve Ying didn't have a good impression of Xie Xi.After following Lin Zisu, I personally saw Xie Xi break into her lady's boudoir. Compared with Yang Xingyao, this Xie Xi has no rules or culture.

Seeing my young lady getting close to Xie Xi, I always feel regretful in my heart, I don't understand why my young lady would fall in love with such a worthless person.

Lve Ying dismissed Xie Xi, and was naturally indifferent after hearing Xie Xi's orders.

Xie Xi suddenly realized that something was wrong, and only then did she realize that just now she had let the guards go to investigate all around. She lowered her head and looked down the stage, and saw Lve Ying looking up at her, meeting Lve Ying's unfriendly eyes, thank you Xi Xi had no scruples, and said casually: "You girl, don't stand here stupidly, go over there and have a look!"

Lve Ying curled her lips and looked elsewhere.

Xie Xi pointed at Lve Ying and said to Lin Zisu: "You maidservant doesn't wink at all, and you have a bad temper. Return her to Yang Xingyao later, and I'll replace you with two obedient ones."

It was rare for Lin Zisu to see Xie Xi deflated, she put the back of her hand to her mouth, and her smile trembled wildly.Xie Xi rubbed his nose and said, "That means Susu, you are too used to her. If she were in my house, such an ignorant girl would have been sold far away."

There was a hint of helplessness in Xie Xi's words, and it also meant to complain.Lin Zisu held back her smile and said, "Lve Ying has always been loyal to me, so don't argue with her. Since there is no one to send, why don't the two of us go and have a look."

The two walked all the way, and Lve Ying followed closely behind Lin Zisu.

Xie Xi looked disgusted, turned her head and said to Lve Ying, "Aren't you going? You just stay here honestly and wait for us to come back."

Seeing that Lve Ying remained unmoved, Xie Xi said again: "You stubborn girl, sooner or later I will be mad at you to death."

After he finished speaking, he raised his chin and opened the way ahead. Suddenly he thought of something, turned his face to Lin Zisu and said in a low voice, "If you marry into my house in the future, you must never let her be a dowry girl."

There are hundreds of mu of medicine fields planted in this piece, but somehow, the climate has been neither hot nor cold, and the herbs in the medicine fields are extremely luxuriant.

Because there is no one to take care of them recently, nearby people keep sneaking over to harvest medicinal herbs and use them as fodder.Some medicine fields are already bare, leaving a mess all over the place.

However, the few medicine fields that Lin Zisu saw just now had few traces of harvesting, so they grew extraordinarily lush.

Before getting close, Lin Zisu smelled the smell of rancidity, and the guess in her heart became more certain.

No wonder no one would come to this piece of medicine field, this kind of smell, others would be afraid to stay away if they smelled it.Xie Xi also smelled it, frowned and said, "It seems that this place is really weird."

As you move closer, the stench gets bigger and bigger.Xie Xi saw that Lin Zisu took out a handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose, and also took out the sweat towel from her sleeve, and was about to do the same to draw a gourd, when she turned her head and saw Lve Ying's calm face, he said strangely: "Lve Ying, you just Aren't you afraid of the smell?"

Lve Ying's eyes remained calm, and he said calmly: "When I was in the southern border battlefield, I stayed among the dead for seven days. The smell around me was much worse than here."

Xie Xi only knew that Lve Ying was born in the Dian Palace, but she did not expect that she had such a past.

Seeing that Lve Ying didn't care about the smell, he felt that he couldn't be compared by this girl, so he stuffed the sweat towel back into his sleeve.

As soon as he took a step, he suddenly remembered Lve Ying's words, and immediately understood a different meaning.Lve Ying compared this place with the southern border battlefield, isn't he saying that this place is also a pile of dead people?
Xie Xi turned to look at Lin Zisu and Lve Ying, only to find that the eyes of the master and servant were the same, flat and calm, presumably they knew the mystery here.

Obviously, both of them saw some clues, but they realized it later.Xie Xi suddenly felt that she lost face, and called a few guards to come over, and ordered them to go to the field to check.

Not long after, several guards dug up several corpses from the medicine field.Xie Xi was standing on the ridge of the field, far away from the corpses. There were men and women. They were not fully clothed, and there were not many decayed places on their bodies. It was obvious that they had just been buried.

Even though she knew there would be such a result, Lin Zisu was still a little pale in shock.

She frowned and looked at it for a few times, then turned her eyes immediately, and said to a guard leader: "There should be more than that here, let them dig down and have a look."

The team of imperial guards brought by Xie Xi today was afraid that they would leak the news when they came, so they didn't tell them what to do when they came.

At this time, they didn't have the right tools to dig through the soil to find the corpse. However, seeing Lin Zisu and Xie Xi's friendly behavior, they naturally didn't raise any objections, so they only went to the nearby town to look for shovels and shovels.

Lin Zisu pointed out several suspicious places in the medicine field, and ordered them to go down and search them one by one.Seeing that her orders were orderly, Xie Xi looked at her with probing eyes.

Lin Zisu had been watched by him for a long time, she was a little embarrassed, and asked in a low voice: "Is there something wrong?"

Xie Xi asked: "Susu, I was just thinking, how did you find this place? That girl Lve Ying has smelled the smell of dead people, you are different from her, and you are so far away, how can you tell that something is wrong here?"

"Fourth brother, have you heard of corpse fat?"

Lin Zisu said: "It is said in "Da Yan Feng Wu Zhi" that some tribes in the north bury their livestock on the spot after their death. After a long time, the vegetation will flourish in those places where the corpses are buried."

After hearing this, Xie Xi's face became more and more serious, and he asked, "That is to say, all the corpses are buried under this medicine field?"

"I don't know exactly how many corpses were buried. After they dig it, they will know it at a glance."

Lin Zisu shook her head, and continued: "Crows like the smell of carrion. Normally, wherever there are carrion, there must be crows gathering. There are such corpses here, not only are there no crows, but there are no flies, mosquitoes or maggots." See, do you know why?"
