Chapter One Hundred and Fortieth: Snakes Are In The Nest, Zhao Tian's Embarrassing Things Are Known
Not only did Xin Bai not die at the hands of Brother Zhao, he also died at the hands of a person that even Song Ci was afraid of.
Song Ci said that he found out that Xin Bai's real cause of death was due to being poisoned by a poison called Wenwen Bixue Pill. The poison was no worse than Hedinghong, but the only thing that was more kind than Hedinghong was that the poison was poisonous.
People can still have a few minutes of reflection, and they can do some things they want to do and say a few words they want to say before they die.
This is how the name Wenwen Bixue Pill came about.
In fact, this kind of mercy is just the last resort of the poisoner to extract a confession.
Everyone knows that when a person is about to die, his words are also good.
When people are about to die, their willpower is often at their weakest, and they will unknowingly reveal the secrets they have been guarding.
The so-called "defending to the death" should mean defending until one is about to die.
When Song Ci explained this, Qin Shaobai couldn't help but be full of curiosity about the person who made the poison.
That man must have a heart as poisonous as a scorpion, as ruthless as a wolf, and as cruel as a trapped beast out of its cage.
Qin Shaobai could even imagine the man's ferocious face, his thick body, and his sound that was louder than thunder.
Song Ci also said that this poison, like the stiff poison, is not native to the Central Plains.
Song Ci's expression changed at the end.
Under Qin Shaobai's constant urging, Song Ci suddenly said: "That night, did you see any fireworks blooming in the sky?"
Qin Shaobai shook his head.
He slept deeply that night, and Xiaolan later told him what happened.
Although he was also puzzled as to why he slept so deeply, Xiaolan said that it was because he had just been drinking in Wangxiang Tower, jostled on the horse for so long, and was made such a fuss by Na Xin Bai, so he was completely exhausted physically and mentally.
So, as soon as I leaned on the bed, I fell asleep.
Xiaolan also smiled and said: "Brother Qin, you don't know, not long after you entered the room, the roof of your house was about to be overturned."
Since Xiaolan said so, he had no reason not to believe that he fell asleep soundly because he was too tired.
So, when Song Ci said that there might be fireworks in the sky that day, he quickly asked why.
Then he heard Song Ci say a name with infinite fear: The fireworks were the symbol of the owner of Baihua Cave, Her Highness the Flower Demon, and she was calling her disciples to come and do something.
After Song Ci finished speaking, he remained silent. No matter how Qin Shaobai asked, he never mentioned the name again.
He only said that if Baihua Cave came to the Central Plains, the peaceful days of the Song Dynasty would no longer exist.
Qin Shaobai found it unbelievable that Xin Bai actually died from the Gentle Bloody Pills brewed by the Flower Demon, the master of Baihua Cave.
I thought that although Xin Bai was obsessed with waiting for the God of War Zhao Bai, he did not pose any threat to the world or the court. How could he be related to the master of Baihua Cave and bother her to reward him with such a stone?
A rare poison in the world.
Unless, the target of the Baihua Cave Master is not Xin Bai, but someone else.
Song Ci said that the Gentle Blood Pill was very precious. As far as he knew, His Highness the Flower Demon had only used it twice, each time for the last few minutes and the true words spoken by the murdered man.
Therefore, this flower demon must also be trying to get the truth from Xin Bai.
What truth will Xin Bai tell her?
About the identity of the God of War?
Xiaolan woke up before herself, and she might have seen something she didn't know.
However, Xiaolan didn't tell herself anything.
Also, for the children in this village, Xiaolan first said that she was scared and hid at home without going out. She just told the Sixth Prince that the children were sent to the mountains to avoid disaster by the elders in the village.
What she said, now that I think about it carefully, there are many unreasonable things.
But, she is Xiaolan!
What unspeakable reason is there to make up so many lies, even to deceive yourself in them?
Qin Shaobai just stared at Feiyu, but his thoughts had already flown thousands of miles away.
But Feiyu didn’t know.
Feiyu saw that Qin Shaobai had been staring at him with various expressions in his eyes, and he was so frightened that he did not dare to drink the ginger tea again.
"Why don't you go quickly?" The Sixth Prince saw Feiyu retreating and Qin Shaobai kept staring at Feiyu. He was a little puzzled in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he had to urge Feiyu to help.
He brings clothes.
Feiyu felt relieved after receiving their master's order. He quickly put down his bowl, bowed to his prince, and walked out.
As soon as I got out of the hospital, I was hit by someone and almost fell down.
After a closer look, she turned out to be the second sister-in-law.
At this time, the second sister-in-law looked panicked, her bun was loose, and sweat was rolling down her face little by little.
It seemed that he had just experienced an escape.
"Miss Xiaolan, Miss Xiaolan."
The first person the second sister-in-law called was Miss Xiaolan?
When Feiyu saw the three adults in the courtyard, they all glanced towards the kitchen.
Xiaolan walked out of the kitchen and caught the second sister-in-law who was running.
"Second sister-in-law, don't panic, what happened?"
"Miss Xiaolan, Miss Xiaolan." The second sister-in-law held Xiaolan's hands tightly, but this did not alleviate her trembling at all, "Something happened, something big happened in the village."
When everyone heard this, they all stood up in an uproar.
"Second sister-in-law, please don't be impatient and speak slowly."
Xiaolan extremely calmly brought a glass of water and handed it to her second sister-in-law.
After drinking the water, the second sister-in-law's mood improved.
But when everyone stared at her, she still said tremblingly: "Dad Xin, he..."
"What's wrong with him?" Qin Shaobai couldn't bear what his second sister-in-law said intermittently, "Second sister-in-law, isn't Father Xin resurrected?"
The second sister-in-law turned her head suddenly and stared at Qin Shaobai, her eyes full of panic: "Master Qin, ladies and gentlemen, it's really, really scary."
Everyone present was stunned.
For a moment no one spoke.
"Come on, let's go take a look." Zhao Tian was the first to speak and stood up, "I have seen everything in this world, but I have never seen the resurrection of the dead."
Feiyu immediately followed.
"It is impossible for the dead to be resurrected, unless you are like me..." Qin Shaobai muttered.
Song Ci, who was walking in front of him, turned around and said, "Shaobai, what are you talking about? What is the same as you?"
"No, it's nothing. I just want to see what Father Xin's resurrection looks like. Is he resurrected as he is, or is he ten or twenty years younger, or is he seven or eight years older?"
At this time, Qin Shaobai's cold jokes were not funny at all. Although everyone stopped to listen to him, they all gave him reproachful looks.
Alas, they also said that the life of people in the Song Dynasty was very emotional, and they could not even hear a joke.
"No, gentlemen, you may have heard me wrong. I didn't mean that Father Xin was resurrected, I meant that countless little snakes crawled out of Father Xin's belly."
The second sister-in-law explained while running with the crowd.
snake!
Qin Shaobai immediately thought of the snake cave in the tunnel of Xin Bai's house, and also thought of his charming fantasy in the deep pool, and felt his heart beating violently.
He looked towards Xiaolan intentionally or unintentionally, and saw that there was no surprise at all on Xiaolan's face.
Is she really not afraid of snakes anymore?
"How can a little snake crawl out of a person's belly?" Zhao Tian also stopped and called Song Ci, "Sir Song, have you ever seen such a thing?"
Song Ci shook his head.
"Second sister-in-law, you'd better explain the matter clearly. What is the situation now?" Qin Shaobai asked.
"Originally, everyone had put the coffins into the soil and prepared to bury them. Who would have thought that countless snakes crawled out of the coffins, so everyone dropped their tools and ran home. I was halfway through, thinking about this.
I have to talk to you, so I came here."
"In other words, the snake just crawled out of the coffin, right?" Song Ci asked.
The second sister-in-law thought for a while and nodded.
Several people breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, Feiyu, you go to the scene first and help the villagers clean up the snakes. I will discuss it with a few adults and then come."
Feiyu took the order and walked out with his second sister-in-law.
Before the second sister-in-law left, she couldn't help but look back at Xiaolan.
"What do you think?" Zhao Tian asked after sitting back down.
"If I guessed correctly, someone should have caught some small snakes and put them in Dad Xin's coffin. The snakes felt that they were buried in the soil and crawled out quickly."
Song Ci pondered.
"It's also possible that the land was where the snake's nest was located, and the villagers accidentally woke up the snake while digging, and they all ran out."
Qin Shaobai answered.
"You two said it is very possible. Miss Xiaolan, what do you think?" Zhao Tian actually turned his eyes to Xiaolan.
Xiaolan bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, I think it's pointless for us to speculate here for a long time. Why don't we go and take a look now, maybe we can understand what's going on."
Song Ci and Qin Shaobai both agreed.
Zhao Tian's expression changed slightly.
Song Ci understood immediately and said to Qin Shaobai: "You and Miss Xiaolan go first, and I will go find some sulfur. If there are too many snakes, it is always good to have some sulfur. Mr. Sixth Prince, you and I will go look for it together."
How about sulfur?”
Qin Shaobai wanted to say something else, but Xiaolan pulled him out.
When the two of them rushed to the cemetery, Xiaolan slowly told Qin Shaobai that the Sixth Prince was fearless, but he had been afraid of snakes since he was a child.
Qin Shaobai felt very strange and quickly asked why?
Xiaolan stopped and locked her eyes on Qin Shaobai's face.
"Because when King Zhennan entered the palace that year, he brought two snakes in. One of them crawled on the feet of the Sixth Prince who was playing in the imperial garden. The snake bit the Sixth Prince unceremoniously, and the Sixth Prince was frightened.
He fainted at that moment. Although the imperial doctor tried his best to save his life, he would scream in fright when he heard the word snake. As he got older, he gradually got better, but he was still afraid of snakes.
It’s fatal.”
Seeing that Qin Shaobai was listening attentively, Xiaolan specifically warned: "Brother Qin, this is a secret of the royal family. Especially after the Sixth Prince took charge of the Imperial City Division, this matter was completely covered up. He was afraid that his opponents would know and use it."
The snake comes to deal with the Sixth Prince."
Qin Shaobai thought that there were thoughtful people in the Southern Song Dynasty royal family.
Indeed, if people from the Jin Kingdom or the future Great Yuan Kingdom knew that the Sixth Prince had this fear, the Sixth Prince might be destroyed.
"Actually, the royal family wants to keep this secret not because they are afraid of being known by outsiders, but because they are afraid..." Xiaolan sighed and changed the subject: "Let's go and see what happened to those snakes."
