Chapter 99 Nine Heavens 21 Hidden Universe
Fortunately, there was no accident on Yu Hui's journey back to Yu Mansion.

Entering her bedroom, Yuhui dismissed the idlers and left Yingyang Yingliu guarding the door, leaving Ali and Passing Water alone to talk.Interrogating Passing Water is the main thing, and A Li can be regarded as a member of the audience.

Yu Hui said with a solemn expression: "Passing water, you saw something just now, can you say it now?"

Passing Water smiled slightly, took a step forward and pressed close to Yuhui's ear, and whispered in a very intimate manner: "Miss really has good eyesight, I did have concerns just now and didn't dare to say more. Although I have never practiced high-quality martial arts , but I have a little understanding of the behavior of those people, and I guess they should be lurking nearby, or they have put eyeliner around us. Once they know what important clues we have found, it is estimated that we will be in danger."

Yuhui knew this truth. As for what Shishui said about the eyeliner, if he didn't mention it just now, he dared to say it now. Could it be that the two shadow guards were also suspected?Yu Hui still trusts the two shadow guards, so she is not as careful as Passing Water, but she can't help but lower her voice and ask: "Then you quietly prevented me from touching Granny Ghost's shoes, is the clue there?" ? Can you make a judgment just by looking at it or not even checking it?"

"Actually, I didn't really understand at the beginning. Since the ghost mother-in-law has been seriously injured and needs a period of recuperation and treatment, why didn't she just tell Ying Yang the clue and bring it to Miss. If she doesn't care about Ying Yang's identity, she can use code words Write some text to coax Ying Yang to pass it on or hide it in her healing place. As long as the lady sees it in the future, it will be more useful than not writing a word." Passing Water paused here, and explained with confidence, "But I will soon Thinking of another possibility, that is, when the ghost mother-in-law and Ying Yang met in the haunted house in Nancheng, she might have sensed that there was a master lurking behind him. The master ghost would not be able to deal with the seriously injured ghost mother-in-law and Ying Yang. Let Ying Yang carry any clues, I am afraid that Ying Yang is either dead or the news has been lost."

Yuhui said thoughtfully: "I see, so the ghost mother-in-law deliberately told Ying Yang to tell me important things face to face, and distracted Ying Yang. But the masters following him were very patient and did not rush They may want to know who is paying attention to General Zhou's affairs after killing the ghost mother-in-law. Then they only need to follow Ying Yang back to Yu's mansion, and they should know my identity. Why didn't they kill the ghost mother-in-law immediately? Yang said that after she returned from Yu's mansion, the ghost mother-in-law was still alive."

Shao Shui frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "There are two situations. First, Ying Yang lied. She may have been bribed by someone, and she even participated in the whole process of killing people. It is nothing more than to make the lady give up. Another situation is that on the way the ghost mother-in-law escaped, she fought with the people following her and killed several people, and only one person remained. Wanting to find the ghost mother-in-law's alliance, so I went to follow Ying Yang first. Although the man arrived at the Yu Mansion, he may not be able to determine from the huge Yu Mansion who is interested in General Zhou's affairs. Next, the man waited for Miss Go out until you are sure that the young lady is going to the place where the ghost mother is healing, and then the man rushes ahead of us and poisons the ghost mother to death."

Yu Hui said: "I believe that Ying Yang is definitely not a traitor. Passing water, since you think that the ghost mother-in-law has already noticed that someone is following her, and she may encounter accidents, why didn't she leave a reminder in advance? Ying Yang is here Outside, no one else can get close, which should ensure I get her tip."

"I speculate that the ghost mother-in-law is probably betting that Miss will take me to see her. In that case, whether she is alive or dead, she doesn't need to write any words, and she can still pass on the message." Passing Water said with a half-smile, "Miss, it seems The ghost mother-in-law has a good impression of you."

"Ah?" Yu Hui was stunned for a moment, recalling that the ghost mother-in-law suddenly said something inexplicable that the passing water was a good match for her that night, she couldn't help being a little dazed, but soon she recovered her calm state, her face darkened and said , "Stop talking nonsense, tell me what news the ghost mother left behind."

Passing water is very measured, so he didn't continue to tease, and turned to the topic: "The dirt and vegetation on the ghost mother-in-law's shoes are very special. They are only found on the mountainside of Shennv Peak in the depths of Beiyuan. Shennv Peak is the highest mountain near the capital. The soil plants at the foot of the mountain are no different from what we can usually see, but when you walk halfway up the mountain, you have to pass through a dense forest. The soil in the forest is due to long-term accumulation of dead leaves, and the ground is already oozing red. water, so it forms a rare dark red color, and it also has a strange smell. I can be sure that the ghost mother-in-law's shoes are stained with this kind of mud."

Yu Hui was puzzled and said: "That can only prove that the ghost mother-in-law passed by that place."

Passing Water nodded: "Indeed. But Beiyuan is the royal hunting ground, Goddess Peak is the peak of the forbidden area, and the emperor's sacrifice to heaven is only the altar at the foot of the mountain. It is rare to go deep into the mountain. I heard that apart from the troops stationed there, there will be no If outsiders disturb you, it might be a good choice for General Zhou to hide on the mountain."

"If this is the case, we can be sure that the Holy Majesty used a bitter trick? The Holy Majesty placed General Zhou in the forbidden area, and he didn't want outsiders to know, so that's why the ghost mother-in-law was murdered?" Yu Hui said sadly, "Then I killed the ghost mother-in-law. I thought her martial arts were so high that she should be able to escape unscathed."

There was also a trace of sadness in Passing Water's eyes, but he said lightly: "Although the ghost mother-in-law is not a righteous and chivalrous person, she has always been proud and confident that she will do what she says, and she will do her best to promise you even though she knows the danger. I I think that the ghost mother-in-law probably found that General Zhou was not free to move. If you saw her as invincible, she came up with the idea of ​​robbing General Zhou. However, the defense there is very tight, or maybe it is to catch other criminals. She set up a powerful trap, and she suffered a loss because of it. In fact, this was also a mistake in my calculations. I didn't expect that the Holy Majesty would be willing to use General Zhou as bait."

Using General Zhou as bait?This sentence reminded Yu Hui, she thought about it carefully, and broke out in a cold sweat.

Presumably, the bitter trick played by the emperor and General Zhou was only the first buckle in the chain.Smart people should be more or less skeptical about General Zhou's fraudulent death, which of course includes the enemy's spies.If they were timid and did not dare to investigate the truth, and they were just suspicious, it would prove that their lack of intelligence and ability is nothing to worry about.The emperor created the opportunity to set a trap, using General Zhou as a bait to lure the enemy's intelligence elite into the trap that had been set up, and wait for the rabbits to catch them all. This is indeed a labor-saving method.Even if the enemy country can't succeed, as long as they pay attention to this matter, they will expose flaws and flaws, allowing the emperor to follow the vines to find more clues.

In order to ensure the safety of General Zhou, the emperor naturally sent some experts to ambush and guard him, and also issued some orders to track down the local forces' accomplices.At this critical moment, any stranger who tried to get close to General Zhou, or kidnap General Zhou, would have no choice but to die.Therefore, it is also easy to explain why the people who followed the ghost mother-in-law would investigate whether the ghost mother-in-law had any accomplices, and wanted to confirm the identity of the accomplices.

If the above inferences are true, Yu Hui's act of pretending to be clever has obviously aroused suspicion for Yu's family.So she broke out in a cold sweat.It is true that the four great aristocratic families have won the emperor's trust, but Lin Zida has all kinds of birds. Being exposed can easily arouse the emperor's suspicion.

Passing water saw Yu Hui's complexion several times, and she probably understood his hint, but he said leisurely: "But the lady asked me to wear a veil to hide my face when I went out, and I deliberately didn't use honorifics. Take the initiative to make remarks, these can confuse the other party. It will make them unable to judge the position and role of the young lady in this matter for the time being. I think the Patriarch will forgive and protect Miss."

Yuhui's eyes showed coldness when she heard this, and she said coldly: "Passing water, did you expect this situation from the beginning? Although I can't guess what the relationship between the ghost mother-in-law and you is, she should not be five years old. The imperial daughter, right? Besides, she is a wanted criminal by the court, and her identity is sensitive. Even if she is a strong martial artist, once she falls into the trap set by the Holy Majesty, she will cause trouble. You didn't tell me these questions in advance, and you didn't ask me what I wanted to find What General Zhou did was because he already knew that I would not be able to do what he wanted, right? Apart from asking my mother for help, I probably have to rely on the fifth emperor or the power behind you to get through the crisis, right?"
