Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years.

Chapter 52 Xuanyuan Root Liquid! Lu Xuan’s guess!

"What, Huang Yangping is dead?"

"Old Chen, what nonsense are you talking about?"

In the back hall of the county government office, Ye Qingshan's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Chen Shi standing in front of him in disbelief.

Before dawn, Chen Shi hurriedly woke Ye Qingshan up.

"Yes, sir, someone from the Huang Mansion came to report the case and is now in the county government office. They are Huang Yangping's sons and his wives and concubines."

Chen Shi's expression was not much better than Ye Qingshan's, he also looked worried.

Who on earth did this? How dare he kill an official appointed by the imperial court?

The most important thing is that the other party was able to break into the Huang Mansion and kill Huang Yangping silently.

It was almost dawn when people in the Huang Mansion discovered that Huang Yangping was dead.

"There are two other deceased persons: Huang Yangping's son Huang Wen and Jia Sheng, the owner of the Jia family pharmacy."

Ye Qingshan didn't take the two dead people Chen Shi mentioned seriously.

More attention is still focused on Huang Yangping.

Because Huang Yangping is the county magistrate of Qingyun County and Ye Qingshan's deputy, his status is different from ordinary people.

He died in such a confused manner, and Ye Qingshan, as the magistrate of Qingyun County, must also be held responsible.

"Is Huang Yangping's body still in the Huang Mansion?"

"Yes, sir, I immediately sent people to seal off the Huang Mansion. Only entry is allowed, no exit!"

"Old Chen, I need to go to the Huang Mansion in person!"

Just as Ye Qingshan and Chen Shi walked out of the room, another person appeared outside the door, surprising Ye Qingshan.

"Lao Liang, you?"

Ye Qingshan and Chen Shi were stunned. Looking at Liang Shanhai who suddenly appeared here, they both had a bad premonition in their hearts.

"Old Ye, Old Chen, three prisoners died suddenly and mysteriously in the cell yesterday."

Liang Shanhai's face was not very good at this time, and he rushed over from home early in the morning.

This was discovered by his son Liang Cheng when he ran to the county government prison early in the morning, and then returned home to tell him.

Although the three dead were the murderers who assassinated his brother-in-law, their life and death still needed to be judged by the county magistrate.

Now that he died in the prison cell, he, as a county clerk, would be held heavily responsible.

And the murderer who killed the three of them was definitely not the prison guard.

As a prison guard, he naturally knew the severity of his blows and would never kill the prisoners.

Of course, Liang Shanhai also noticed at this time that something was wrong with Ye Qingshan and Chen Shi.

"Old Ye, Old Chen, what's going on?"

Facing Liang Shanhai's question, Ye Qingshan said solemnly: "Huang Yangping is dead!"

"what!"

Liang Shanhai was shocked beyond words by this news.

"Forget it, Lao Liang, go send someone to summon the coroner to investigate the cause of death of those people. I and Lao Chen will go to the Huang Mansion first and bring back Huang Yangping's body."

Lu Mansion!

At this moment, outside the gate of the Lu Mansion, a fat man in a yamen runner's uniform was knocking hard on the gate.

"Open the door quickly, I'm Liang Cheng!"

The next moment, hurried footsteps were heard inside the gate of the Lu Mansion.

Then, the gate of Lu Mansion slowly opened.

"Master Cheng!"

Liang Cheng didn't have time to pay attention to the Lu family servant who greeted him. He just nodded hurriedly and walked briskly in a certain direction.

Not long after, Liang Cheng arrived at the gate of Lu Xuan's courtyard. After hesitating for a moment, he made up his mind and was about to knock on the door. At this moment, the door slowly opened and a tall and straight figure stood inside.

"Brother Xuan!"

Liang Cheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his cousin Lu Xuan actually knew he was coming.

However, Liang Cheng didn't think much about it and said anxiously: "Brother Xuan, it's bad. The murderers who assassinated my uncle died in the cell."

Liang Cheng got up early in the morning and originally wanted to see if the criminals had confessed.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the cell, he found that the jailer guarding the cell had fallen asleep.

The murderers who assassinated his uncle also died suddenly and mysteriously. Their deaths were extremely horrific. The inside of their bodies were like a lump of mud, covered by the skin on the outside.

So, after Liang Cheng hurriedly notified his father, he rushed to the Lu family to inform his cousin Lu Xuan.

Liang Cheng saw that Lu Xuan was not moved by his words at all, and was about to speak: "Brother Xuan, you..."

"Why are you panicking? Haven't you already guessed the result?"

Lu Xuan looked at Liang Cheng meaningfully, then spoke slowly.

"Brother Xuan, it's really you!"

Liang Cheng suddenly understood and the doubts in his heart were resolved.

No wonder his cousin Lu Xuan specifically asked him about the location of the county government prison yesterday.

After learning that it was Lu Xuan who did it, Liang Cheng's nervous and frightened heart gradually calmed down.

After all, the deaths of those people in the cell were too horrific. Even Liang Cheng, who was used to seeing dead people, was almost scared to death by their deaths.

"Brother Xuan, have those bastards revealed the mastermind behind this?"

"Damn it! If I knew who ordered this, I, Liang Cheng, would kill him."

Liang Cheng didn't take Lu Xuan's murder to heart.

Because those people who died deserved to die.

Even if Lu Xuan didn't take action, Liang Cheng would find an opportunity to make those bastards suffer a fate worse than death.

Now that he died so quickly at the hands of his cousin Lu Xuan, it was actually a bargain for them.

"I don't need to tell you this, you'll know it soon."

"I'll know soon?"

Liang Cheng was a little confused and didn't understand what Lu Xuan meant, so he left the Lu family in a daze.

However, Liang Cheng quickly understood what Lu Xuan meant.

Lu Xuan watched Liang Cheng leave silently, and took out a blue token from his arms. It was the Xuanniaowei token that Li Yanran gave him that day.

Lu Xuan almost finished reading the scrolls recording the murder case in the county government office and other cases yesterday, and found that they did not contain the information he needed.

"Bai Daofu City?"

Baidao Prefecture City governs more than a dozen counties, including Qingyun County.

Since there is no one in Qingyun County that is detrimental to the Lu family, Lu Xuan can relax and head to Baidao Prefecture.

Ever since he learned that there were two realms above the Internal Qi realm, namely the External Gang Grandmaster and the Divine Mansion True Person, Lu Xuan has been eager to leave Qingyun County.

Also, Lu Xuan was very interested in the antidote that Li Yanran gave to his father.

"Xuanyuan Root Liquid!"

Lu Xuan had never heard of this name before. He only learned about it from his younger brother Yun Qing.

Because, when Lu Xuan used his internal energy to heal his father's injuries, he discovered that there was a power in his father's body that was similar to the vital energy of heaven and earth.

If Lu Xuan guessed correctly, that power similar to the essence of heaven and earth came from the Xuanyuan root liquid!
There are actually things in this world that are more powerful than tonic herbs.

Is it a spiritual creature from heaven and earth? Or something else?
