"No demonic aura?"

Liang Shan frowned slightly.

Then.

He looked at the woman in the white dress again and began his routine questions: "What was your husband's name? How did he die?"

"My husband's name is Xu Xian. He was originally from Hangzhou. Half a year ago, he brought my sister and me to Kaifeng to make a living and opened this Baohetang pharmacy..."

The woman in the white dress choked up as she spoke, tears streaming down her face again.

"Wait, what did you say your husband's name is?!"

Liang Shan's eyes widened, and his mind went blank.

"My husband's surname is Xu, his given name is Xian, and his courtesy name is Hanwen..."

The woman in the white dress took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and sobbed, "My lord, you usually practice medicine and save lives, but who would have thought that you would suffer such a misfortune today? I beg you, sir, to do justice for me..."

Liang Shan swallowed hard.

He glanced subconsciously at the corpse on the ground, then at the woman in the white dress who was crying her eyes out, and at the woman in the green dress next to her with wide-open almond eyes and a wary expression.

The white dress is as white as snow, the green dress is as green as bamboo.

One is gentle and graceful, the other is feisty and straightforward.

"You...you all..."

Liang Shan bowed respectfully, not daring to show the slightest disrespect: "May I ask your honorable surname, madam?"

The woman in the white dress wiped away her tears.

She curtsied slightly and said, "This humble woman is Bai Suzhen, and this is my younger sister, Xiaoqing."

Bai Suzhen.

Xiaoqing.

Xu Xian.

Liang Shan's lips twitched a few times.

really.

The world I've transmigrated to is definitely not the Song Dynasty.

There is a Water Margin.

There is a Red Mansion.

There is a demon monkey.

There is a celestial jade.

Now even Bai Suzhen, this thousand-year-old snake demon, has appeared.

And myself...

They stumbled into the enemy's lair by sheer accident.

"That's not right."

Liang Shan came to his senses, his brows furrowing into a deep frown.

From what I remember.

Xu Xian lived in Lin'an, which is Hangzhou. How did he end up in Kaifeng?

and.

According to the story, Xu Xian was originally an apprentice at a pharmacy. Later, he married Bai Suzhen, opened a pharmacy, and lived a shameless and happy life. Although Fahai caused trouble in the middle, the couple eventually became immortals and achieved enlightenment.

How...

He died suddenly?

Today isn't the Dragon Boat Festival, and the story of Bai Suzhen accidentally drinking realgar wine and scaring Xu Xian to death hasn't even started yet.

"What exactly happened?"

Liang Shan was somewhat bewildered.

"Sir, what did you say?"

Bai Suzhen looked at him through teary eyes.

"It's nothing."

Liang Shan waved his hand, forcing himself to calm down.

Forget it, even Lin Daiyu can be a leopard head in this world, so what's so surprising about Xu Xian dying suddenly in Kaifeng?

He took a deep breath.

Squat down.

They lifted a corner of the white cloth, revealing Xu Xian's upper body.

The corpse's face was bluish, a trace of blood clung to the corner of its mouth, its eyes were half-open with unfocused pupils, and the terror of its death lingered on its face.

Chest area.

There is also a noticeable dent.

It was as if he had been hit hard by something; all his ribs were broken, and his chest cavity collapsed, forming a fist-shaped dent.

"Killed with a single blow?"

Liang Shan frowned and gestured with his hand.

The palm print is very large.

It's a size larger than a normal adult male's hand, and its strength is terrifying. One slap can break all the ribs, and the heart would probably shatter on the spot.

"Only a martial artist at least at the Refining Spirit Realm could inflict such damage with a single palm strike."

Lin Daiyu, who was standing nearby, reminded her.

"Has your husband offended anyone recently?"

Liang Shan pondered for a moment, then stared at Bai Suzhen and asked.

"My husband is usually kind to others, never causes trouble, and has never offended anyone."

Bai Suzhen shook her head.

"Could it be a random killing?!"

Liang Shan had a sudden thought, and these kinds of cases are often the hardest to solve.

The motive is unclear.

The act of murder is random.

Even clues are hard to find.

"Is there even a need to investigate? My brother-in-law was definitely beaten to death by that wicked monk!"

Xiaoqing pouted and spoke her mind.

"Monk?"

Liang Shan's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What demonic monk?"

"Xiao Qing".

Bai Suzhen tugged at Xiaoqing's sleeve and shook her head slightly.

Xiaoqing immediately covered her mouth.

No matter how Liangshan questioned him, he remained silent.

"It seems they know something."

Lin Daiyu secretly communicated with Liangshan through telepathy.

"Leave it to me."

Liang Shan gave her a look.

Then.

Looking at Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, he feigned a sigh and said, "Since the murderer cannot be found in a short time, according to the laws of the court, I can only take the body back to the yamen and let the coroner examine it."

"What?!"

"An autopsy?!"

Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing exchanged a glance, their eyes widening in surprise.

"That's right."

Liang Shan said solemnly, "This is a murder case, a matter of life and death. We must take it back to the yamen for a thorough investigation, and strive to find the real culprit as soon as possible and give you justice."

From the moment you enter.

He then discovered that Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing seemed to not want anyone to know that Xu Xian was dead.

This shows that...

They might have a way to bring Xu Xian back to life.

and so.

That's why he used Xu Xian's corpse to manipulate the two of them.

"My lord."

Bai Suzhen bowed slightly, looking pitiful, and said, "Could you please have pity on us two weak women, all alone and helpless, and make an exception for us...?"

talking.

He also handed over a silver ingot.

"absurd!"

Liang Shan didn't even glance at the silver, but coldly rebuked, "I am an official appointed by the imperial court. How can I violate the law and act out of personal favoritism?!"

Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing looked at each other in bewilderment.

Just as the two were at a loss, Liang Shan continued, "Madam Xu, if you don't want your husband to be dissected by the coroner, you'd better tell me everything you know."

He didn't dare to push too hard.

To know.

The two people before me were a thousand-year-old snake demon and a cultivator with seven hundred years of cultivation.

Lin Daiyu alone might not be enough to stop the enemy.

"actually……"

Bai Suzhen sighed and turned to the side: "Xiaoqing, you tell me."

"That wicked monk is Fahai from Jinshan Temple!"

After receiving permission, Xiaoqing gritted her teeth and said, "That evil monk chased my sister and me all the way from Hangzhou to Kaifeng, saying that we were demons. My brother-in-law went to confront him, but... he beat him to death."

"Fahai...killed Xu Xian?"

Liang Shan's mind went blank again.

This plot doesn't make sense.

In the story of the White Snake, although Fahai is annoying, he doesn't go so far as to kill people indiscriminately.

At most, they tricked Xu Xian into going to Jinshan Temple and locking him up, forcing Bai Suzhen to flood Jinshan Temple. In the end, Bai Suzhen's son, Xu Shilin, relied on his civil service exam skills to order the Xihu Subdistrict Office to rescue Bai Suzhen, and the family was reunited.

How come in this version, Fahai just killed Xu Xian?

"Are you sure it's Fahai?"

Liang Shan persisted in asking the question.

"Absolutely true!!"

Xiaoqing said resentfully, "The wound on my brother-in-law's chest was caused by that old bald monk Fahai's Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Technique. Only he in the world knows how to do that!"

"The Great Heavenly Dragon?!"

Liang Shan's lips twitched a few times.

He wasn't sure which version of Fahai this was.

Catch the demon! Catch the demon!

As a result, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing survived perfectly well, while Xu Xian was the one who was killed.
