In the famine year, the group pet cubs awakened to farm in Shanhaijing

Chapter 235
Everyone was taken aback when they heard him speak suddenly.

"The poison was originally used to eliminate weeds."

Zeng Ziji said: "Because the effect is not obvious, although its toxin is weak, it will not show signs of poisoning after people eat it by mistake. In addition, some people have committed suicide by taking Chun Ri Ku, and this poison has gradually disappeared from the world."

At first, it was called Chunriku, which was named after the need for weeding in Chunri farming.

Cheng Miaomiao racked her brains for a while, but she didn't remember the poison either.

At this time, Xu Fangchun said seriously: "Little brother, how can you be sure that this is Chun Riku?"

Everyone looked over in unison.

Zeng Ziji unhurriedly took a vegetable leaf from the pot, pointed to the black spots on it and said: "If you look carefully, you can find that these tiny black spots are distributed along the veins of the leaves, and they are mainly concentrated on the leaves. At the bottom, this is one of the characteristics of spring dry."

"When Chunriku is used to remove weeds, it acts on the roots and achieves the goal through the death of the roots."

But these greens were brought in after the roots had been removed.

The characteristic of chunriku is that it acts along the roots, so black spots appear concentratedly at the bottom of these vegetables. This is actually not a big problem for the back kitchen, just like the dirty spots eaten by moths. Can be removed cleanly.

Nor would the average person think of it as a sign of poisoning.

After what he said, Xu Fangchun looked at these vegetable leaves again, and suddenly realized that this is indeed in line with the symptoms of spring dryness, and said: "Yes, it is true, what this little brother said is very true, it is spring dryness."

Butler Wu's face was gloomy, and his eyes were inspecting these people in the back kitchen one by one.

This poison can only be placed by one of them.

Mrs. Lin frowned slightly, and clenched her fists tightly.Her eyes seemed to look at the people in the yard with suspicion. Except for some help cooks, she hadn't seen much, and she was very familiar with the other cooks.

They are all old people who have worked in restaurants for many years.

Lao Lin and her have treated them well all these years, if the person who poisoned them was among them, it would be a dog fed by friendship for many years.

Cheng Miaomiao waved his hands high, and shouted, "Brother, can you see how the poison was injected?" The people in the back kitchen yard are not hiding the poison, so the source of the poison still needs to be judged.

Zeng Ziji hesitated for two seconds, then shook his head.

He looked at Xu Fangchun, who also had a solemn expression, staring at the poisoned vegetables in the tub for a long time without looking away.

Ye Ning suddenly said: "Then search the house."

She turned her head to look at Mrs. Lin, and said in a deep voice: "Someone must be doing poisoning, and if it is done, it will leave traces. We searched the entire back kitchen upside down, and we can always find some traces." Come."

There are also several wing rooms in the back kitchen, which are for the cook and the help cook.

They came suddenly, and no guests have had any accidents so far. This means that the poisoning should have started recently. The poison is small, and it will take a long time to poison to have an effect. The person who poisoned must still have poison in his hand. .

As long as the poison can be found, the murderer can be determined.

Mrs. Lin was silent for a moment, then nodded to her, and said solemnly: "Butler Wu, order someone to search for me from room to room, and dig three feet to find the person who poisoned me."

"Yes, ma'am."

Butler Wu responded.

Greeting the servant who brought him, he entered the wing room and began to search.

Seeing them search with such fanfare, Cheng Miaomiao suddenly felt a little regretful, she tugged on Ji Huai's sleeve with two fingers, leaned over and whispered: "I knew I brought the treasure, its dog nose must be useful at this time .”

Cai Bao ate and drank at her house for two years, and then one day accidentally discovered that it could smell the smell of strange monsters, which was just suitable for finding monsters.

From then on, Cheng Miaomiao had to take it with her whenever she went out.

If she had known that this kind of thing would happen when she came to the county, she would definitely bring it to the world to gain experience.

Ji Huai lowered his eyes to look at her, saw that she was sincerely upset, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and said: "There is no dog nose, a sheep nose is also fine."

Cheng Miaomiao: "?"

She froze for a moment, then turned her head to look at the lazy little white sheep hiding behind her.

The little white sheep called briskly: "Baa."

There was a clear stupidity in his eyes.

In fact, if Ji Huai hadn't insisted that it had something to do with Bai Ze all these years, or if it was Bai Ze himself, she really only thought it was an ordinary lamb, even though it hadn't grown up for so many years.

Cheng Miaomiao never doubted the authenticity of Ji Huai's words.

He simply squatted down and touched the little white sheep's head, and passed the vegetable leaf in his hand under its nose. When he smelled something he didn't like, the little white sheep took a few steps back in disgust, but Ji Huai forcibly pinched it The neck was raised back.

It screamed terribly: "Mea—!"

Some people looked over immediately, and looked away after seeing the two playing sheep.

Only Lin Ziheng leaned over and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Training Erbai," Cheng Miaomiao shook the vegetable leaves under its nose several times. "We are going to explore its potential and see if it can become a sheep's nose comparable to a dog's nose and help us find poison."

"..."

This is also outrageous.

Lin Ziheng thought to himself, looking at the little white sheep struggling and screaming miserably, he couldn't bear it and said: "We still have to give up some unrealistic fantasies, why don't I call someone to pick a dog over."

"Need not."

The person who spoke was Ji Huai.

His expression was still calm, he looked down at the little white sheep, reached out and patted it on the head: "I know you can find it, don't let us down, go."

When Cheng Miaomiao heard this, he immediately put away the vegetable leaves and gave it an encouraging look.

The little white sheep glared at Ji Huai with resentment, his eyes were full of resentment, he pouted his hooves in dissatisfaction, and finally walked around the yard obediently, sniffing every wooden basin.

The route was so clear that Lin Ziheng was dumbfounded.

After sniffing here, the little white sheep walked towards the standing kitchen staff, but stayed in front of Cook Li for a few more seconds, and then went straight to the well dug in the yard.

The little white sheep pouted on the spot and bleated at them.

Ji Huai nodded and said, "It was found."

This is really found?A look of surprise flashed across Cheng Miaomiao's eyes, but he trotted over to hug the little white sheep and rub it, then waved to Zeng Ziji who was communicating with Xu Fangchun: "Senior brother!"

Zeng Ziji raised his head and glanced over there.

After saying sorry to Xu Fangchun, he walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Brother, please check if there is any problem with the water in this well? I suspect they may have poured poison into the well."

This statement is not disguised.

Chef Li twitched his face, and the fingers hanging by his side suddenly trembled.

Everyone present heard it, Madam Lin looked at Ye Ning in amazement, she couldn't help but frowned, then paused and said: "Miaomiao has always behaved properly, she should have discovered something."

While they were talking, Ji Huai had already fetched a bucket of water from the well.

Zeng Ziji tore a vegetable leaf and threw it into the bucket. After a while, faint black spots appeared on the veins of the clean vegetable leaf!
