"But Master Zhang, there are so many small creatures in the world, why does Master Zhang think they must be monkeys?" Yunxi asked again.
"Your Majesty, man is the leader of all things in the world, but the leader among other creatures is the monkey. Monkeys are close to humans, intelligent, can imitate many human actions, are easy to teach, and have no shortcomings except that they cannot speak."
Zhang Sanfeng said.
Having said this, Zhang Sanfeng picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat. Seeing that Yun Xi had no doubts about this, he continued to explain: "Your Majesty, I guess that the person who cast the spell used this little monkey for two purposes.
."
"First, the mage applies poison to his minions, and people who are bitten or scratched by them will be poisoned. Most of the poison that such mage smears is blood-sealing poison, unless there happens to be someone who knows how to detoxify and carries it with him.
Bring antidote with you, otherwise you will almost die."
"This monkey is extremely small. It usually scratches the window paper with its claws and sneaks into the house. It can kill people in their sleep, and it is difficult for others to detect it."
"But my windows are inlaid with glass. At this time, the capital is fine, and most people have seen glass windows. But in other places, because large pieces of glass are not easy to operate, most of them only have small glass mirrors stained with mercury. This spell
"People didn't know that the courtyard where I was was already inlaid with glass windows, so I was lucky enough to escape." Yunxi said with some luck.
"This is your majesty's great blessing. You are protected by God." Zhang Sanfeng patted the horse and then said: "But I don't know if the person who cast the spell is out of caution or what. This fourth step has other purposes."
"Even if the monkey failed to harm His Majesty, it could still give His Majesty a hint and make Him think that he was under a spell. If I expected it to be true, Your Majesty also heard the sound of bats swooping over and the little monkey scratching with its claws that night.
The sound from the glass window, combined with the incident of Concubine Hui falling into a coma, is enough to put a curse on Your Majesty."
"The purpose of the person who cursed me has indeed been achieved. I have really been cursed. If Master Zhang hadn't happened to be in Guangzhou, I would probably..." Yunxi said.
At this point, the process of Yunxi being cursed is already clear: first, the person who cast the curse used the mind-dropping technique to cast a curse on Yunxi, but because Yunxi didn’t believe in the heart-dropping technique, he just had nightmares, lacked energy, and felt weak.
; So the person who cast the curse immediately used another method to cast a curse on Xiyi, so that Yunxi could believe in magic such as the Heart Drop Technique; and then the person who cast the curse performed the third and fourth steps to make Yunxi fall into the curse.
But Yunxi still has some puzzlements. "But how did the person who cast the spell know that I was not asleep after he started casting the spell? How did the serum get applied to the window frame? What puzzles me the most.
, how does that person know which house I live in?"
Yunxi's three questions go straight to the core of the matter, especially the last one: after Yunxi heard the sound of bats flying against the window frame and monkey claws scratching the glass on the first night, he changed rooms on the second night, but the change
There were no stains on the windows of the house after the incident, but stains appeared that night!
Zhang Sanfeng said nothing. The direction of the matter was obvious, but he did not dare to say this.
He just said another sentence: "Your Majesty, the serum may have been applied by a little monkey, as long as it can find the house where Your Majesty is, and the mage who used it has been prepared for this in advance; this kind of little monkey has a very clever nose, if
Now that I know His Majesty’s scent, I can follow the scent to find Your Majesty.”
"But how does this monkey know my scent?" Yunxi asked again.
The room fell into silence again.
It was Yunxi who broke the silence himself. "Master Zhang, since you revealed the true identity of this 'little devil', can you catch this monkey?"
"Your Majesty, if the monkey comes to visit the palace again, Pindao can catch it; if the person who cast the spell stops sending little monkeys, there is nothing Pindao can do." Zhang Sanfeng said.
"Then please ask Master Zhang to arrange a means to capture the little monkey around the house where I live." Yunxi said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Sanfeng agreed.
"In addition, I still have something to ask Master Zhang to handle. Master Zhang should know about the case of harvesting and cutting. In my opinion, the case of harvesting and cutting is inseparable from the matter of casting a curse on me."
"Your Majesty expected it to be true. Most of the cutting was done to search for all the 'items' for casting spells."
"In this case, I hope that Zhenzhen Zhang will help the police in Guangzhou solve the case of harvesting and harvesting and catch the mastermind behind it. Moreover, the matter of harvesting and harvesting has caused great indignation among the people. I also want to solve the case and explain it to the people of the world."
"Your Majesty, I will obey the imperial edict. Harvesting and cutting of raw materials is extremely cruel. It not only harms people's bodies, but also makes their souls restless. Solving this case is a great merit, and I am obligated to do so." Zhang Sanfeng said.
Yunxi said a few more words to him. Since it was getting late today, he would stay in the palace for one night and go to help solve the case of harvesting and harvesting tomorrow. Zhang Sanfeng bowed and left.
After he retreated, Yunxi immediately called Li Sha'er, Wang Xi and Song Liang in, and briefly told them about his being tricked, focusing on several of his doubts.
"Your Majesty, this must be a mole in the palace." Wang Xi said immediately: "When I found the stain on the window sill, I thought there might be a mole. Sure enough, there really is a mole."
"My Majesty said that the little monkey might have smeared blood and serum on the window frame; what the inner ghost did was probably taking out an item that His Majesty once used," Li Sha'er said.
"But those who can get the items used by His Majesty all come from the capital with Your Majesty. Your Majesty's study in the outer courtyard is cleaned by the eunuchs in the palace, and the clothes you change are cleaned by the palace maids. Even the dishes that Your Majesty eats are cleaned.
It was cleaned by the handymen who were brought here, and there was no room for local people to interfere." Wang Xi added.
When things got to this point, everyone could only draw a shocking conclusion: there was a spy among the people who followed them from the capital!
However, all the servants and guards who followed Yunxi to Guangzhou were carefully selected, and there should be no moles. Anyway, Li Sha'er and others present believed that if there was a mole, it couldn't be him.
Bring people.
"Could it be the work of the locals serving in the outer courtyard? During the days when Concubine Hui was possessed by the evil spirit, there were many people coming in and out of the inner courtyard, and I may not have been able to take good care of her." Song Liang said.
"It's also possible." Yunxi thought for a while and then ordered: "No matter what, you will not only find out whether the local people serving in the outer courtyard have any insiders, but also quietly check whether the people under your command have any insiders."
