@@"Miracle Doctor Li, I have a letter from Chen Shaodong's family in Baicao Hall."
After Li Yan finished refining a batch of elixirs, he just walked out of the elixir room when a servant handed over a letter.
Although it was done very cleverly, the letter still left traces of being read. Li Yan frowned slightly and opened it to read.
Chen Jingqi wrote three things in the letter.
The first thing is that Du Jiuniang has been buried, and she has appointed a spiritual sweeper to offer sacrifices every year.
The ghosts in the underworld in this world really need the worship of the Yang world in order to live a better life. Chen Jingqi did his best.
Just thinking that Du Jiuniang might have ended up being unable to be reincarnated forever, Li Yan sighed softly.
The second thing is that Baicao Hall's business has not been affected, but the news has spread.
Compared with the head-changing, the elixir bet that Li Yan and Tao Ren agreed on did not attract much attention at first. Now that Tao Ren has died, it has become a household name.
Some unfriendly voices gradually appeared in the city, accusing him of being aggressive and unforgiving when he was in power.
There is even an extremely sinister saying that Tao Taoist could refine "Pure Breath Pill, cure diseases, and become a miracle doctor for countless living people. When Li Shizhen saw this, he was jealous, deliberately obstructed him, and forced him to death."
If the former was just an honest mistake, the latter had ulterior motives. Someone wanted to completely ruin his reputation and make the miracle doctor fall from the altar.
Li Yan looked calm and continued reading.
The third matter is Jin Yiwei's investigation.
The progress is not optimistic.
In any case, the stranger the death, the harder it is to hide the truth.
But Tao Tao's death seemed to be an ordinary suicide case.
Multiple policemen repeatedly checked, but there were no traces of homicide. Some experienced policemen even suggested that when Tao Tao Ren hanged himself, it was probably the time of the fourth watch and the fifth watch, and his actions were decisive and quick, without any hesitation, so he was killed.
If more people hadn't seen it earlier, there wouldn't even be a need for magical shielding.
The corpse is still stored in the Jinyiwei command post, and is being handled closely day and night, but nothing unusual is found.
There were no thieves who wanted to burn the corpse or destroy any traces of the corpse, nor did the corpse show any signs of resurrection. It did not rot or stink. I wonder if the person had taken any special elixir beforehand.
But time passed day by day, and Tao Taoist, even if he was ready to resurrect from the dead, would never be able to gain a foothold by fooling the public like this.
Zhu Qi did not give up the investigation. Jin Yiwei visited the surrounding areas. There was no sound of fighting or witnesses. He also went to Tao Tao's residence in Nanjing. However, he identified a new clue. Not long ago, Wei Guogong Xu Pengju went to see Tao Tao.
Under Zhu Qi's questioning, Xu Pengju admitted that he hoped that the other party would admit defeat in the next alchemy competition, otherwise he would not get the cooperation of Nanjing nobles in refining the "Pure Breath Pill" in the future.
This incident proves from the side that Tao Daoren really can't think of committing suicide. After all, "Pure Breath Pill" is the best shortcut for him to prove his ability, but now he is forced to surrender to his enemy. Under the mixture of shame and anger
Even if you go to the extreme, it's not impossible.
And this debt will also be placed on the head of Divine Doctor Li, because those nobles are pretending to be on behalf of Divine Doctor Li, and their explanations to the outside world are getting darker and darker.
Li Yan put down the letter and pondered for a moment. His expression was normal and he continued to bask in the sun and accumulate mana.
"Is this person really unresponsive?"
When the messenger servant reported what he had observed, Xu Pengju's eyes darkened, and the faces of a group of elderly nobles around him also became extremely ugly.
Everyone present showed no apologies for forcing Tao Tao to his death, and some regretted not being able to handle the miracle doctor.
An old gentleman with white beard and hair even said slowly and authentically: "No one in the world does not cherish reputation, especially these doctors. Who would ask him to see a doctor if he is notorious? Ahem, let's spread the news more.
.Don’t be afraid and he won’t be in a hurry!”
The powerful people are very skilled at spreading rumors and slanders, but the proposal has not received much approval.
On the contrary, someone said: "I'm afraid we can't force this matter. If we are really found to have done it and there is a grudge, who would dare to change his head? It's not like medicine. You can find someone to try it!"
Xu Peng
Ju Ye said: "If they could be forced, would the factory guard still be so polite? Eunuch Yang tried to invite Divine Doctor Li to go north again and again, but was rejected. Eunuch Dongchang didn't come by force. Isn't that why he was afraid of this?"
Everyone discussed again. They wanted to be tough but were afraid of offending others. They were also worried about being snatched away by Beijing. Worried about gains and losses, the oldest noble coughed wildly. If not for everyone's help, he would have been killed on the spot.
It's over.
While they were surrounding the old man, the noble man tremblingly made a request: "I will be the first to change!"
Whoosh!
Everyone dispersed, leaving only the old noble man who fell to the ground and twitched with a loud sound.
"Send the old man home quickly!"
When the farce subsided, Xu Pengju looked at the housekeeper and whispered: "Have you found a strong body?"
The butler said: "Master, that's it."
Xu Pengju whispered: "Take me to see it!"
The housekeeper led the way alone and came to the secret room in the corner of the east garden. There was a young strong man lying on the ground. He only wore a single coat in late autumn, his chest was half naked, and his strong muscles were looming.
Xu Pengju squeezed his thick arms and strong legs, showing his sincere envy and enthusiasm: "That's great. That's great! Is he willing?"
The butler's eyes twitched, but he immediately responded: "Please rest assured, sir, it is voluntary. I have already settled this family's family!"
"All is ready except for the opportunity!"
Xu Pengju hissed: "Compared to that miracle doctor, it is only a few hours of hard work, but it can extend my life for decades. Why can't he speak? As long as he speaks, no matter how much gold and silver wealth, I will
Everyone is willing!"
The housekeeper felt that the master's appearance was a bit ferocious, so he quickly lowered his head and slowly retreated out, leaving only a figure lingering in the secret room, repeating the same words from time to time: "Only one operation is needed! Only one operation is needed!"

Li Yan stood in the back garden with his hands behind his hands, looking at the dark night, and suddenly said: "Xiaoqian, what do you think?"
Xiaoqian floated over and looked up at the sky like this: "That's how I look!"
Li Yan laughed and was about to tease the little female ghost, but Xiao Qian made a serious suggestion: "There are ghosts again tonight. I will go find them and ask them how Tao Tao is gone!"
Li Yan frowned: "This is indeed a way, but Ming Piao is not omnipotent. When facing Du Jiuniang before, Gui Cha remained unmoved."
Xiaoqian was puzzled: "I used to give and receive everything, but every month I stay in Yangshi, I still have to give one!"
Li Yan pondered a little more: "Okay, then you can go, but don't directly ask how Tao Tao died. Do you understand this request?"
Xiaoqian nodded repeatedly: "I understand! I understand!"
Li Yan said: "Be careful in everything. Is the Ming Piao enough?"
Xiaoqian touched her sleeves, showing the joy of a good harvest: "Enough! Enough!"
Not long ago, Liu Shiyan sent a high medical fee, and Li Yan accepted it calmly.
Ever since Xiaoqian was able to speak fluently, he also learned that among the ghosts there were spiritual ghosts with extraordinary talents. This one had the ability to convert earthly gold and silver into underworld coins, so naturally he would not refuse.
After leaving part of the box of gold and silver, the rest was converted into ghost tickets, making Xiaoqian hum a pleasant ditty all day long and feel full of energy.
At this time, she volunteered to take charge of the situation on her own. She ducked down and began to shuttle. In her ghost form, there was no obstacle and she headed towards the place where the Yin energy was the strongest.
"Bah-la-ba-la-"
Soon, a familiar voice sounded again.
The chain that hooked the dead hooked the soul of a wealthy old man with white hair and beard, and returned to the underworld amidst the desperate cry of the other person.
Xiaoqian popped up her head, shook the Ming Ticket, and made a seductive voice: "Puff! Puff!"
The dead man stopped, shook the old man's soul in his hand, and said to the signal: "This person is precious, and it is difficult to return Yang."
Xiaoqian felt confident and began to make demands: "If my life is not renewed, I want to know if I will be hanged."
Taoist Taoist at the entrance of Baicao Hall, the scene before Yangshou died."
The dead man spread his hands and made a prompt that only the ghost could understand.
"It seems Tao Taoist is indeed gone. Do you need three pictures just to see what he was like when he was alive? It's so expensive!"
Xiaoqian confirmed the death of her former master. She didn't have a good impression of that person. In her vague memory, she desperately forced herself to write the ghost tickets. She was far inferior to the current owner, who skillfully took out three ghost tickets and handed them over.
"Thank you!!"
With the rising tone, the hooked man stretched out his clawed fingers, stabbed into the skull of the other hooked man, pulled out a black and white memory, and handed it back.
Xiaoqian took it, her eyes flashed, and she entered a strange perspective.
He seemed to be standing on the top of Baicao Hall, holding the chain in his hand, silently looking down.
After a moment, a figure in Taoist robes approached quickly.
This is Tao Taoist.
With no one chasing him or threatening him, Tao Tao simply rushed downstairs, threw the rope, and hung himself in front of the medical center.
The whole action was extremely fast, without any sloppiness.
The person who was hooked to death also moved, and the chain moved, hooking the soul out, and the scene stopped at this moment.
Xiaoqian's eyes blurred and she returned to reality.
She frowned, feeling that before she died, Tao Taoist seemed to have said something, but she couldn't hear it: "What on earth did he say?"
The dead man noticed her troubles and made another gesture that only ghosts could understand.
"You want three more? This time is for your memory?"
Xiaoqian's eyes widened under her hair, showing a "Why are you so dark" expression, but in order to clear the name of the evil and good master now, she still trembled and took out the ghost ticket: "Here!"
"Thank you!!"
An even more mysterious voice sounded, and suddenly it pierced into his head, pulling out a memory.
After handing it over this time, the perspective suddenly changed and came to the front.
"ah!!"
Xiaoqian took a closer look and her hair suddenly stood up.
As a ghost, she was so frightened that she screamed.
Because Tao Tao, whose face could not be seen just now, was actually smiling.
Not that forced, miserable smile
Instead, the corners of his eyes and mouth were raised in a sincere smile of joy.
In any other scene, this would obviously be a happy event, but in this scene, it is indescribably weird.
The laughing Taoist Taoist threw up the rope without hesitation, stretched his neck, and said his last words:
