Chapter 198 Lead the snake out of the hole
Seeing Jiang Mohan's reaction, Ye Ling'er suddenly felt hopeful.

"Do you know this person?"

She asked cautiously.

Jiang Mohan narrowed his eyes, snorted coldly, and asked Ye Linger back.

"Ling'er, tell me first what happened?"

"Tell me first, have you seen it?"

Jiang Mohan was helpless.

He put the drawing paper on the table and covered the rest, leaving only a pair of eyes.

"Who do you think you look like based on these eyes?"

Ye Linger looked at it again and again, but still felt familiar.

As for who it was, she had no idea at all.

She shook her head, "I don't know."

"Ancient."

The two words floated into Ye Linger's ears, and Ye Linger's eyes widened instantly.

Quaint!

Shen Yang said that the person he got the coins was a Taoist priest from that day.

But now, Jiang Mohan said that it was Gu Chang.

Could it be...

Gu Chang is that Taoist priest!
He deliberately pretended to be a Taoist priest that day, went to Wolong Village, made the villagers anger the snake tribe, and then let her marry Jiang Mohan as a matter of course?
If so, there is only one possibility:
Gu Chang has long known that her bracelet can save the snake tribe.

If so, it's terrifying.

Her head was buzzing and a mess.

Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, turned around and yelled outside the door:

"Leping! Leping!"

Le Ping hurried in from the outside, "Queen, slave is here."

"Go and stare at Gu Chang to see who he has been in contact with recently, especially if there are any humans."

"Yes."

After Leping ran away, Ye Linger sat down on the stool weakly.

Shen Yang said that Gu Chang went to get medicine from him.

She stared ahead in a daze.

Jiang Mohan frowned tightly and didn't bother her. He didn't ask until she came back to her senses:
"What's the matter?"

Ye Ling'er got up and closed all the doors and windows before telling Jiang Mohan everything about today.

She didn't miss anything.

The more he listened, the more solemn Jiang Mohan's expression became.

"So, you suspect Mengzhu?"

"I know I have no reason to doubt her, but..."

Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Mohan raised his hand to interrupt her.

"Take me to see."

When the two arrived at Uncle Chen's house, the house was already covered with white flowers.

Uncle Chen is alone, and now only Shen Yang Mengzhu is with him.

There was an indescribable loneliness about the scene.

After he entered the room, he walked straight to the coffin without saying a word, and with a flick of his sleeve, the coffin lid flew far away.

His behavior stunned Meng Zhu and Shen Yang.

The two hurried to the coffin and blocked the coffin behind them.

"Your Majesty, the dead are the greatest, you..."

"roll!"

Mengzhu shrank her neck and moved a step to the side.

Jiang Mohan took a deep look at her before walking to the coffin.

In the coffin, Uncle Chen's cheeks were already black and blue, especially under the eye sockets, it was terribly black.

Jiang Mohan narrowed his eyes and stretched his fingers to Uncle Chen's chest.

The arrow there hadn't been taken out yet, and he could still touch the arrow.

He paused, and exchanged glances with Ye Linger.

With just one glance, Ye Linger knew what he was thinking. She straightened up, walked to Jiang Mohan's side, and blocked his movements with her body.

"Mengzhu, you were outside the door at that time, did you hear any noise?"

"Back to the queen, Mengzhu didn't hear anything."

"Then when we came here, did you find someone following us?"

"nor."

Ye Ling'er was silent, then looked at Shen Yang again.

"Brother Shen, do people often come here?"

Shen Yang thought for a moment before answering her question.

"It's very hidden here. Uncle Chen doesn't go out often. No one in this small town knows him, and he doesn't have anyone to associate with."

"That enemy..."

"Those who associate with Uncle Chen all associate with him kindly, and he has never had any enemies."

"Since no one follows us, and Uncle Chen never had any enemies, then who do you think killed him?"

Shen Yang and Meng Zhu looked at each other, but they couldn't give an answer.

How do they know who the murderer is.

At this time, Jiang Mohan got up, put his hands behind his back, turned around and stood with Ye Linger.

"Uncle Chen died of poisoning. The person who killed him was ruthless. Even if he didn't give up at the time, he would still die."

Ye Ling'er turned her head and met his eyes.

She understood that Jiang Mohan had all the evidence that should be left behind.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

"When will Uncle Chen be buried?"

"The morning after tomorrow."

Ye Ling'er didn't speak any more, she turned around and looked at Uncle Chen's coffin, frowning tightly.

This Uncle Chen is indeed pitiful.

What's more, he died because of himself.

She felt more guilty.

Jiang Mohan looked away from her, and raised his hand to hold her half in his arms.

"Ling'er, I know you feel uncomfortable, that's the case, you can come over to give Uncle Chen a ride in the morning of the next day."

"I think so."

"It's late tonight, let's leave first, there is Mengzhu here, I believe that Mengzhu will take care of this place."

Hearing this, Meng Zhu knelt down, "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will take care of everything."

"Ah."

Ye Ling'er was in a daze, letting Jiang Mohan walk out with her in his arms.

After returning to the Snake Palace, Jiang Mohan took out the arrowhead from Uncle Chen's chest, and put it under the candlelight to examine it carefully.

He observed for a while, put the arrow into his sleeve, and called Duan Yao with his hands behind his back.

"Go and follow Gu Chang, don't let anyone find out."

"Yes."

Ye Linger was puzzled, she waited for Duan Yao to leave before asking out her doubts.

"Didn't we ask Le Ping to follow Gu Chang?"

"You don't understand, Meng Zhu and Le Ping are a pair of twins, they are separated because of magic, but they have the same idea."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Linger instantly understood what he meant.

She suddenly felt very scared.

She kept praying in her heart that Mengzhu must not be what she thought.

Jiang Mohan rubbed the top of her head, "Don't worry, everything will come to light in the future."

"Ah."

"You don't want to go in the future."

Ye Ling'er raised her eyes suddenly, "Huh?"

"I'll let someone pretend to be you and go to Uncle Chen's house, and we'll observe in the dark."

It may be that Ye Ling'er has not come out of everything today, at this moment she doesn't understand what Jiang Mohan means at all.

Jiang Mohan didn't say much, his eyes were still doting.

"Uncle Chen's funeral will be held in the morning of the next day. After these two days, we have followed Gu Chang, and Gu Chang will definitely notice.

If the murderer is really him, then he will definitely appear on the day of Uncle Chen's funeral.

At that time, we will be in the dark and he will be in the light. We will know at a glance who he has talked with and who he has communicated with.

At that time, we knew whether Meng Zhu was a traitor or not. "

He spoke so clearly that Ye Ling'er was still unclear.

Only now, she cares more about another thing:

that arrow.
