There was a sudden loud noise in the hall. It was the sound of a tray being held by a maid falling to the ground.
After this sound, the maids and attendants who were frightened out of their wits seemed to be awakened by the sound, and they screamed and ran away.
Ling Yun frowned at the screams they made, then walked to the nearest dead person and began to check carefully.
After a while, I scratched my head hard
When I walked to the second person, I still looked at him for a long time, and finally said in a deep voice: "Why is there not even a trace of blood on them, and it doesn't look like they were poisoned?"
"They are indeed not poisoned"
Ouyang Xi walked back to the seat where he was just now, bent down and picked up a silver needle from the ground that was as thin as a cow's hair. If you didn't look carefully, it would be almost invisible to the naked eye.
He squinted at the silver needle in his hand and said solemnly: "If I guessed correctly, those people died because of being hit by such a silver needle."
Ling Yun took a breath of air and stretched out his hand to pull open the clothes on the chest of the person he was checking.
After careful inspection, he confirmed that there was no needle hole in his heart. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother, I'm afraid you've made a mistake this time. He..."
Ouyang Xi raised the corner of his mouth and interrupted Ling Yun decisively: "They were killed by this little silver needle."
Seeing that Ling Yun still looked unconvinced, Ouyang Xi walked over and handed the silver needle in his hand to him.
After Ling Yun took the silver needle in his hand, he said leisurely: "With such a silver needle, there is no need to directly pierce the heart. As long as it enters the chest, the blood flow will naturally bring the silver needle to the heart."
