stare--
Eager to learn, hungry for knowledge.
Li Qingcha sighed.
"There should be a description of coal poisoning in the criminal history books, right?"
Bu Lin took over the conversation.
"When the pit leaks fire and stinks, the person will be fumigated and die without knowing it. The body will be very soft, similar to a person who has a nightmare and cannot wake up... Hmm... Now that you mention it, the body does look like someone who has coal poisoning, such as the abnormal red color of the lips and face. But..."
They still couldn't accept that an eighth-rank cultivator would be poisoned like this.
Except for low-ranking Confucian monks, the physique of ordinary monks is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and the same is true for their perception of poisonous gas.
If you smell a strange odor, it is impossible not to notice it.
unless……
suicide?
Lighting the charcoal brazier and deliberately locking the doors and windows, then taking tranquilizers and going to sleep can really kill yourself.
But why go through all this trouble?
How satisfying it is to stab yourself with a sword.
Otherwise, someone secretly gave Qingwei a calming drug and then killed him?
Do not,
That's not right either.
The monks were secretly given medicine, and even the medicine to calm their bodies and minds was difficult to obtain.
Li Zian said: "Considering Qingwei's identity as a cultivator, it is unlikely that he was drugged, but he does have symptoms of poisoning... Hmm... But if it is really poisoning, the possibility of coal poisoning is extremely low... Maybe it is some kind of poison in the martial arts world that we don't know about."
At this time, a voice came,
“Is it possible that it’s the other way around?”
It is mysterious and pure.
Li Qingcha's eyelids twitched, and he turned around.
"Master Xuan Jing, why don't you make your words clearer? What's the opposite?"
Xuan Jing laughed.
"Master Li, do you really not know?"
"You don't want to tell me? Forget it."
"No... I said. I just think that since poisoning is not an option, is it possible that poisoning is just a cover-up? The real fatal wound is in the throat?"
Everyone looked at each other,
puff~
Suddenly there was laughter from the corner.
Luo Weiyang muttered, "You really don't know anything. Even I know that if a person's throat is cut, it is absolutely impossible for him to take poison. Because the drug will never enter the stomach, it will only accumulate in the throat. How can it accumulate in the throat and cause poisoning? How can there be so many symptoms of poisoning?"
The girl's voice is clear and pleasant to the ears.
How could Xuan Jing keep his face after being bullied by the juniors?
He hesitated for a while, and suddenly an idea came to him.
"By the way, aren't there two more sword wounds?"
Li Qingcha's eyes gleamed.
"Sword? How do you know it's a sword?"
"Well...this..."
"say!"
"Master Li, you... Humph! Think about it, in the Central Plains, what kind of weapon's blade can be so thin? What else could it be other than a sword?"
This reason is normal.
but,
Zheng——
A flash of light passed by, leaving a very thin knife mark on the painting hanging in the room.
Li Qingcha smiled.
"How many people have swords with thinner blades than mine?"
Xuan Jing's left cheek twitched.
"You...you deceive people too much!"
"Master Xuan Jing, I'm just advising you to be more careful with your words. If you talk too much, you'll make more mistakes. If you talk less, you'll make fewer mistakes. If you don't talk at all, you'll be fine."
This statement is very threatening.
Xuan Jing suddenly felt the pressure.
He took several deep breaths and finally calmed down.
"Master Li, think carefully about the possibility I mentioned. Is it possible that the murderer first used two swords... well... used two swords or two knives to subdue Qingwei, then forced him to drink poison, and finally cut his throat?"
Brin frowned.
"What's the point of feeding poison?"
"I think the purpose is to make the investigating officers curious about the meaning of feeding poison."
"..."
Xuan Jing's meaning is very clear.
Smudge,
Used to confuse the investigators' vision.
Although this explanation is a bit far-fetched, it is indeed more convincing than the theory of poisoning.
Because the theory of poisoning is even more far-fetched.
If the deceased was an ordinary person, coal poisoning is indeed possible.
But the problem is that the essence, energy and spirit of a cultivator are completely not on the same level as those of ordinary people!
Ugh……
Bu Lin looked at the body again and felt depressed.
The interval between the poisoning and the stab wound was too short, and it was impossible to determine the order of events based on the condition of the corpse.
Why is the first step of the autopsy so difficult when the deceased is a monk?
so troublesome……
The officials from the Ministry of Justice present were all a little annoyed.
At this moment, Li Qingcha suddenly spoke up: "Master Xuan Jing, since you think that slitting the throat is the real cause of death, where do you think we should start to solve the case?"
Xuan Jing couldn't help but be surprised.
Li Qingcha was actually asking for advice? !
He looked at Li Qingcha, but found that Li Qingcha had a half-smile on his face and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
For a moment, he struggled in his heart.
a long time,
"I think it's a weapon."
Finally said it.
Li Qingcha asked: "Why is it a weapon?"
Since Xuan Jing had already answered, he decided to go all the way to the end.
"It's a very simple logic, Lord Li. You ordered the soldiers guarding the city gates to register their weapons. Therefore, we have sufficient clues starting from the weapons."
"What if we can't find out?"
"That means this person did not come to Beijing recently, or... this person's cultivation is not low, so there is no need to register his weapon. Considering that his weapon is a rare thin blade..."
At this point, the real purpose is revealed.
Anyone could hear that Xuan Jing was referring to the Fish Fairy of Lingyun Sect and her twelve flying swords.
Chapter 371 How to get to the Ministry of Justice?

"..."
"..."
"..."
There was an eerie silence.
Fish young Wei,
Sixth rank monk,
Thinking of the saint girl from the Human Sect, the officials from the Ministry of Justice present couldn't help but feel a headache.
Li Qingcha stared at Xuan Jing, as if thinking.
a long time,
"Master Li, how did you deal with the fish fairy?"
Bu Lin had said before that Yu Youwei and the Yizidao sect members all had motives, so the Ministry of Justice must have sent someone there.
Li Zian lowered his voice.
"We just sent people to keep an eye on Lingyou Palace."
"Please invite the fish fairy."
"..."
Li Zian: ￣□￣｜｜
To invite Yu Youwei to the scene, we have to ask for reinforcements from the Imperial Observatory or the Egret Academy.
Li Qingcha noticed his hesitation and said, "Just tell them that it was me who invited you. Fairy Yu will never say no."
Seeing how confident she was, Li Zian had no choice but to do it.
Li Qingcha squatted down and pinched Qingwei's arm. He found that the flesh was very loose. He had already made up his mind.
It was definitely not a death by a slit throat.
She turned back.
"Why does Taoist Xuan Jing think it's the Fish Fairy?"
Xuan Jing's pupils shrank.
"Master Li, I didn't say it was the Fish Fairy from Lingyun Sect. I only said the murderer had a high level of cultivation and his weapon was unique in shape."
"You have learned to be more cautious."
"It's not that I've become cautious, but Lord Li seems to be dissatisfied with me, so I have to be cautious."
The two looked at each other.
The atmosphere became somewhat tense.
Li Qingcha said: "Why do you think the cause of death was not poisoning?"
