Chapter 112 Suspicion
"Zhongxiao! Wuwuwu~..." Shangguan Yulan said at the first time Huangfu Zhongxiao hugged her tightly, and tears that had already broken their trough began to rush again, which made Huangfu Zhongxiao look confused.
"That...what happened to me just now? Why are you all here? Magnolia, are you?"
"Old doctor, please check it out for Mr. Huangfu first?"
"If you have to get it, I must take a closer look!"
In fact, there is no need for Gu Yue to say too much. The old doctor is already eager to try. Although he just discovered that there was no sign of injury in Huangfu Zhongxiao's body and no drug residue was found. Based on his years of medical experience, Huangfu Zhongxiao was mostly blocked and fell into a coma. Unexpectedly, Gu Yue woke up the person after just taking a few shots. More than just a magical skill?
In Gu Yue's serious eyes, Huangfu Zhongxiao had to keep silent and cooperate with the imperial physician to give him some good examination.
"Mr. Gu is indeed a wonderful move. I am ashamed of myself. But can I ask Master. Gu to give me advice? What happened to the second young master just now?"
"To be honest, I just guessed that I might have suffered a mental impact. After all, you just said that there were no external and internal injuries, and I didn't find any drug residues. However, with my current mental attainments, it is not difficult to make people unconscious, but those are actually accompanied by extreme pain and will never be as peaceful as sleeping. However, although I can't determine the reason, it is not difficult to wake up the second young master through stimulation."
"So that's it! There is actually someone who can use the mental attack method that Master Gu still has unknown? Could it be that there are other alchemists present in this valley?"
"It's not easy to make a judgment on this, but it's still necessary to verify it. After all, the second young master was hit by a disaster, so why didn't there be any explanation? Now I'll ask if the second young master can recall the scene at that time. Then the second young master still needs you to take care of it."
"Of course, I must do my best."
After confirming that Huangfu Zhongxiao was in normal condition, Shangguan Yulan was grateful to Gu Yue again, and every sentence was unfair to Shangguan Lien Lu, which made Shangguan Lien Lu blush but couldn't hide his complacentness.
"Second Young Master, if it is convenient now, please recall what happened at that time and why you suddenly fell into a coma?"
"This... I'm not hiding this... I vaguely remember that I was back from practicing martial arts in the forest. When I passed by a big tent, I accidentally found a figure flashing by. After that, I had no impression. I should have been unconscious."
"Okay, then don't delay the second young master's rest. It's better to be more careful after that. After all, there are mixed things here. Try not to go out alone as much as possible, otherwise Sister Yulan will worry again."
"What Master Gu taught me is that I am determined not to worry about Magnolia anymore."
"Who was the first to discover the second young master? Where did you discover it?"
After Gu Yue asked everyone to leave the tent, he began to ask for details. Then the Chu soldiers who were the first to discover Huangfu Zhongxiao were brought over.
"Master Gu! We were just patrolling, and suddenly we saw someone lying near a camp. When we looked closer, we found that it was Mr. Huangfu and he carried it back."
"Do you remember where you found it?"
"Of course, will the little one take you there now?"
"Okay, trouble."
Gu Yue couldn't hide her excitement. It seemed that this detective addiction could be passed.
However, Tang Mulin was a little worried. After all, such a situation here is not a joke, and there may be more serious subsequent waiting. So for Gu Yue's safety, he hoped to hand over this matter to the garrison troops for investigation. However, before Gu Yue could refute himself, Tang Mulin was interrupted directly by Tang Xiaoyan who was eager to try, which saved Gu Yue a lot of verbal talk.
In Tang Mulin's helplessness, the group was taken by soldiers to the place where Huangfu Zhongxiao was discovered. Gu Yue immediately opened the truth eye and said, and looked around carefully.
"Whose tents are there on both sides?"
"Sir, on the left is the eldest prince's tent, and on the right is the Xu's tent. They both have noble identities, so they both use large tents alone."
"Oh? That's a bit interesting. By the way, do you know that the second young master has the habit of going out to practice martial arts?"
"Yes, since I came here to set up a camp, the second young master went to the grove to practice martial arts without interruption every day."
"Then you must know where he often practices, right?"
"Yes, because of the responsibilities of brothers, they will interrogate routinely in and out of the battalion commander's area. This is true for everyone. Although we have never been to the grove where the second young master practices martial arts, we still know which direction we go out of the camp."
"Please point it out."
"Okay sir."
Whether it was a coincidence or a deliberate intention, the direction the soldiers pointed at was not the only way for Huangfu Zhongxiao to return to his tent. To be precise, it had exceeded his return to his own tent.
"Is this a detour? Why? Or is it actually not the first scene here but someone deliberately threw someone over?"
Especially when there were no signs of chaos or footprints on the scene, there were not even those of Huangfu Zhongxiao himself. Is this technique too rough?
"I wonder if the eldest prince or Eunuch Xu has any special discoveries?"
"No, the brothers shouted for help at that time, and the eldest prince or the Xu elder brother-in-law should not be in their own tents."
"Okay, then let's go back to the Second Young Master and his tent first, and then please ask a few of you to take me to the direction of the Second Young Master to the grove every day?"
"Little one obeys the order."
Everyone around him was a little laughed when they saw the smile on the corner of Gu Yue's mouth. This guy who was afraid of the world was in chaos was indeed happy. He had a tacit understanding that no one would disturb him. However, Tang Xiaoyan was also a little overly excited and couldn't help but want to see it. He treated himself as the protagonist in the case study book, which gave Gu Yue a little headache. After all, such jumping up and down may destroy the evidence that there was not much on the scene.
Fortunately, Tang Jihuang immediately understood when she received Gu Yue's look of help. She took Tang Xiaoyan's arm and thought she had an extra crutch, although the crutch was a little awkward.
However, although Tang Xiaoyan was anxious, her concern for her second sister was the first priority. She mistakenly thought that Tang Jihuang was a little tired and wanted to support her, and she was unwilling to miss this good show. So she endured the excitement in her heart and acted as a crutch. However, the guy who succeeded secretly gave Tang Jihuang a thumbs up.
Along the way, it was not as sparsely populated as the aristocratic area just now, but it was not endless. There were indeed traces of footprints, but not many elements that were driven by true energy. They were probably left behind by a sudden whim of each move and move.
Not long after, everyone walked all the way from Huangfu Zhongxiao's camp to the exit of the camp to the small grove.
"I passed seven tents along the way. Do you know whose they belong?"
"Sir, the first big tent I met was that Princess Shangguan lived alone. The arrangement was to better get close to the second son of Huangfu and his wife. Then the three Miss Tang tents were the last ones, and they were also close to Princess Shangguan according to Miss Tang's requirements."
"Well, both of these arrangements are good, what about the next one?"
"Afterwards is the Shangguan family's tent, where Chief Qin and the young Heavenly Step live. They were originally close to Princess Shangguan. After all, Chief Qin and her are acquaintances, and it is more convenient for Chief Qin to perform his duties. Only after Miss Tang and others arrived did one join in the middle.
The next three camps lived in the remaining seven Heavenly Masters, who were also separated by their major families, two in each room and three in the other room.”
"In other words, the original arrangements along the way were all Heavenly Level Masters? Are Lily of the Valley and the others added?"
"Yes, in the original arrangement, there are big tents here, so they are exclusively for all the experts in the heavenly ranks to live, which can be more relaxed and comfortable. However, Princess Shangguan has a noble status, so he naturally has to arrange big tents to live. It was originally supposed to be close to you and the eldest prince, but it was arranged here for safety reasons."
"I really haven't considered these things. You have to worry about them. Please help me invite all the experts in the heavenly level here. Is that okay?"
"Okay, I'll obey the order!"
After the soldiers were busy, Gu Yue touched her chin seriously, "It's interesting, it's really interesting."
"Brother Gu, what are you thinking?" Tang Mulin rarely saw Gu Yue so excited, and it was a bit surprised.
"There is a little bit, objectively speaking, this matter will not be simple. First of all, this arrangement seems reasonable, but it is a bit convincing."
"Brother Yue is the smartest. Hurry up and tell Xiaoyan what's special about it? In my opinion, it's just a little strange to live alone. After all, the rest are two or three people living there."
"You are not happy to ask you to live in, I am alone in that empty place." Shangguan Linglan pretended to be angry after being mentioned, and it turned out that she had invited the Tang sisters to live with her.
"Hehe, it's a bit like the three of us squeezed in together, especially when we are worried that Brother Yue will run back to find you if we have time. Wouldn't we be in the way?"
"What are you talking nonsense? That guy is so busy these days!" If he said this without complaining, he really couldn't agree.
"Ahem, I'm really too busy. The main reason is that the seats arranged are far from being mentioned, but I'm also close to Uncle Qin and Sister. I have to think about it if I want to go there, but I'm helpless."
"Hmph! I'm so slick. My sister and I saw it just now at Jihuang. You obviously don't know where we live!"
"It's really...ah, I should be beaten and punished. I didn't cherish the opportunities I left for me, my brothers didn't cherish!"
Shangguan Linglan was still a little thin-skinned in front of his acquaintances. He became shy when Gu Yue made such a fuss. He also felt that it was not good to continue to care, and he delayed his business. He just punished the big ones and gave up easily.
"If you want to talk about this, it is indeed why the Lily of the Valley's tent was arranged here. Although the status of the noble should have a large tent, it is the same nearby. Why not post this to me? The considerations here are the second young master Huangfu and his elder sister. Is it not appropriate for these two people to post to me? After all, they are the second young master Huangfu, and their status will not be low, right?"
After Gu Yue said this, everyone adjusted from laughter, especially Tang Mulin was seriously considering, "Is it because he wanted the princess and Miss Shangguan to get close to Captain Qin so that it would be safer?"
"It's not unreasonable to think about it like this, but the truth is often mixed with these easy-to-ignore normals. After all, this is a heavenly martial arts conference. Is there any problem that really needed to be solved by Uncle Qin? What's more, there are Murong Di and the General nearby. Not only is our highest combat force in Chu, but the masters of Chen State cannot ignore this princess, right? Obviously, safety issues are definitely not something that needs to be considered."
"Yes, it's really hard to explain why this arrangement is made, especially since the princess and Brother Gu are engaged, it's actually more reasonable to live together."
"Right, then why?"
When Gu Yue asked this question, he looked at Shangguan Linglu, which made the latter confused, "I don't know, it's not what I specifically asked for..."
"Yes, this is definitely not what Lily of the Valley requires, because Lily of the Valley is very easy-going. Then, the place where the contestants were originally arranged to live, and suddenly arranged her in would definitely cause trouble for others. This would be not good, not to mention that Sister Magnolia and the Second Young Master also need a place, which will inevitably have more impact on the original arrangement. But the fact is that, if it were not the Lily of the Valley's request, then why?"
"Don't keep it aside, you just don't want to say it yourself, right? Let me tell you that there must be influence from Mr. Huangfu and Miss Shangguan Yulan. I'm afraid they made some considerations to make such arrangements in the end."
Tang Jihuang knew that Gu Yue was a little concerned about Shangguan Linglu's idea and was unwilling to express her doubts in person, but the facts were facts. Although it had not been proved yet, it was necessary to propose one, so she said it bluntly.
"Are you suspicious of your elder sister and brother-in-law? What are you thinking?! When you were attacked, your brother-in-law himself..." Shangguan Linglan was a little unhappy, but she suddenly thought that on the day she just arrived, she really mentioned "Mr. Gu will definitely be very busy, and the overall situation needs to be considered. Getting too close to him and worrying about affecting his rest."
Shangguan Linlu's sudden stop made Tang Jihuang immediately understand that she also thought of some suspicious points, "Did you think of something critical to Lily Valley? Why don't you tell me it out? After all, this guy also wants to find the truth, so it's naturally for your brother-in-law's safety, right?"
"Well, that's right. I just remembered that my elder brother-in-law mentioned that he didn't want to disturb Gu Yue's rest and didn't get over, but what's the problem here?" Although Shangguan Linglan noticed something strange, she didn't believe that there was really some deliberate plan by her brother-in-law. Can't she really worry about Gu Yue?
"Of course, it is normal for the second young master to think so. The couple are always grateful to me and they are normal to worry about disturbing me. However, there are two possibilities for careful consideration. One is that the second young master was used by someone who was interested when he suggested this. After all, unlike me, the idle man, the contestants will have a fixed time to go out and need to practice martial arts in the small forest. So if you want to attack the second young master, wouldn't you have a chance?
As for the other way, the second young master does have some plans, but the specific one needs to be analyzed carefully. After all, the road and the scene just now cannot directly explain the problem. We also need to listen to whether there are new clues among the key people we found.
