Chapter 254 I’m here to find someone
He gently tested it with a silver needle, and then a faint blue-black color appeared on the tip of the needle, emitting a faint fishy smell.
Lin Congyun looked at the dark blue mark on the tip of the needle, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Lu Zhu was furious, "Who is so bold as to commit a crime in my house?"
Hearing this, Lin Congyun felt a little strange. If the murderer was so skilled in martial arts, why didn't he just stab her directly, but chose to kill one of his own in her yard?
What is the purpose of doing this?
"Do you know what kind of poison this is?" Lin Congyun asked the coroner softly.
The old man shook his head, looking troubled: "This poison is extremely rare. I have not seen it often in my life, so I cannot identify its name exactly. But judging from its color and smell, this poison cannot kill people."
"how do I say this?"
"This poison is a chronic poison. Long-term use can cause people to become unconscious and die from physical decay. However, if used for a short period of time, it will not cause people to die suddenly. It's strange, really strange."
Can’t it cause people to die suddenly?
Upon hearing this, Lin Congyun fell into deep thought.
So, there is something else going on with his death?
"Luzhu, send the old man out. Don't let anyone know what happened today."
Luzhu nodded in agreement and escorted the coroner out of the yard.
Lin Congyun looked at the corpse on the ground and fell into deep thought. She always felt that this matter was not that simple and there must be a bigger secret hidden behind it.
Thinking of this, she stood up, took the corpse's human skin mask back to the Second Prince's room, took out the Second Prince's human skin mask and compared it carefully. Except for the difference in appearance, the workmanship was almost exactly the same.
It seems that these two human skin masks were made by the same person.
Is there a possibility that Mo Yunqi is the second prince's man, so he appears in Bianyun Pass?
He sent these two people out in order to find the second prince.
But why did he kill these two people?
Lin Congyun thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Maybe he was going in the wrong direction?
At this time, Luzhu came back and interrupted Lin Congyun's thoughts.
"Grandfather, I have sent the coroner away and told him not to disclose what happened today."
Upon hearing this, Lin Congyun nodded and put the two masks back into the secret compartment.
"Luzhu, from now on, you must pay close attention to every move in the mansion, especially unfamiliar faces. If you find any, report to me immediately."
"Yes, I understand." Lu Zhu replied respectfully.
In the following days, Lin Congyun still lived a reclusive life on the surface, but in fact he was secretly observing every move in the mansion.
However, several days passed and nothing unusual happened in the mansion.
Just when Lin Congyun thought that the matter was over, a man in black suddenly broke into her yard late at night.
The man in black was very skilled in martial arts. He dodged the patrolling guards and broke directly into Lin Congyun's room.
At this time, Lin Congyun did not fall asleep, but was sitting at the table reading a book.
After hearing the noise, she immediately raised her head vigilantly and looked at the man in black.
The man in black was wearing night clothes and had a black scarf covering his face, so his features could not be seen clearly, but Lin Congyun could feel that he was looking at her with a sharp gaze.
"Who are you? What is your purpose in breaking into my room?" Lin Congyun put down the book in his hand and asked coldly.
When the man in black heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect Lin Congyun to be so calm.
"I'm here to find someone."
The man in black spoke in a hoarse voice, his eyes darting around the room as if looking for something.
Find someone?
Lin Congyun raised his eyebrows slightly, but he already understood about 70% of it in his heart.
It seems that this man in black was sent by Mo Yunqi, and his purpose should be to find the second prince.
Thinking of this, she was moved, but her face remained calm: "I am the only one here, and there is no one you are looking for."
The man in black frowned when he heard this, and looked at Lin Congyun again, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He seemed to be thinking whether Lin Congyun's words were credible, but soon he shook his head: "No, the person I'm looking for is in the mansion, he must be here."
As he spoke, he actually approached Lin Congyun step by step.
Seeing this, Lin Congyun felt nervous, but he remained calm on the surface.
She knew that since this man in black had been able to evade the patrolling guards, it meant that he was a very skilled martial artist and she was probably no match for him.
But even so, she couldn't reveal any flaws.
"I've said it before, I'm the only one here." Lin Congyun emphasized again, and secretly took out a whip, "If you dare to come one step closer, don't blame me for being rude."
When the man in black heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he did not stop.
"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with a drink."
As he said that, he suddenly pounced towards Lin Congyun, with a cold light flashing in his hand, and he actually took out a dagger.
Lin Congyun was shocked when he saw this, but his reaction was not slow.
She dodged the attack of the man in black with a flash of her body, and at the same time swung the whip in her hand and hit the man in black.
The man in black didn't expect Lin Congyun to react so quickly. He dodged the attack of the whip.
But Lin Congyun did not stop. He flashed and attacked the man in black again.
When the man in black saw this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was immediately replaced by a strong murderous intent.
His figure flashed and he fought with Lin Congyun.
For a moment, there was a "crackling" sound in the room. The energy generated by the fight between the two men caused the tables and chairs in the room to suffer and break into pieces.
Lin Congyun became more and more frightened as the fight went on. She discovered that the black-clothed man's martial arts was even better than hers. Even after using all her strength, she could only end up in a draw with him.
Moreover, she felt that the other party did not seem to be using his full strength, but was testing her strength.
Thinking of this, her heart sank, knowing that this was not a solution.
So, she feinted and dodged the attack of the man in black, while shouting, "Someone, there's an assassin!"
As Lin Congyun finished speaking, there was a sudden noise, and Lu Zhu rushed into the room with a group of guards.
Seeing this, the man in black showed a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but then he turned and jumped out of the window.
"Chase, don't let him get away!"
Seeing this, Lin Congyun immediately ordered the guards to chase after him.
But the man in black was very skilled in martial arts, and he disappeared into the night in a flash.
The guards chased for a long time but could not find any trace of the man in black, so they had no choice but to return.
"Ancestor, are you okay?" Luzhu looked at Lin Congyun with concern.
Lin Congyun shook his head: "I'm fine, it's just a pity for those destroyed tables and chairs."
Hearing this, Lu Zhu heaved a sigh of relief: "It's good that everything is fine, it's good that everything is fine. If the tables and chairs are broken, we can buy new ones, but if something happens to the old ancestor, how can I explain it to the Third Master?"
