The sensitive sense of smell and the advanced radar system were more useful than Lin Mengya's nose and eyes.
Lin Mengya moved her legs according to the intensity of the smell and shuttled through the courtyard without any hindrance.
Zhou Ling followed behind her. He had wanted to see her make a fool of herself, but in the end, he was surprised to find that this woman seemed to have grown a pair of eyes. She easily avoided all kinds of obstacles.
However, this was not because she had any special ability, but because of the Shen Nung system, which made the place she was in transparent in her mind.
At this moment, no one knew more about this place than she did.
Finally, her footsteps stopped in front of an inconspicuous small room.
Lin Mengya suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the half-closed door of the hut.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Ling, who was shocked by Lin Mengya's continuous actions, immediately walked to Lin Mengya's side.
He looked into the dark room cautiously, with a solemn look in his eyes.
"Lord Zhou, can I borrow a torch from you?"
Lin Mengya turned around and asked in a serious tone.
Zhou Ling thought that something serious had happened, so he immediately nodded and walked out.
Lin Mengya stared at Zhou Ling's back as the corners of her mouth curled up into an appreciative smile.
Lin Mengya pushed open the door of the room and sniffed the air. That's right, the smell seemed to be stronger.
The moonlight could not penetrate the darkness in the room, so she could only see the vague outline of the room.
But what surprised her more was that in the room, there was a small flower in the shape of a bell, shining with silver light. It was especially eye-catching in the dark.
The Shen Nung system sounded its alarm, reminding her that the pollen floating in the air had a strong paralyzing effect.
Even an elephant would be paralyzed by such a flower.
Fortunately, she was almost immune to these things.
While Zhou Ling had not returned, Lin Mengya walked toward the flower step by step.
The moment she came into contact with the flower, she felt a little numb on her skin.
Lin Mengya took out a handkerchief from her clothes, carefully pulled out the flower and put it in her bosom.
After making sure that everyone was here and wouldn't be paralyzed again, he retreated from the room.
Zhou Ling had just arrived.
The torch in his hand burned brightly, but the smell of pine oil was much stronger.
Admiration rose in Lin Mengya's heart. It seemed that Commander Zhou had many redeeming qualities to be able to sit in this position.
"Miss, the things are here."
Without any hesitation, he shoved the torch into her hands. In front of her, Zhou Ling had subconsciously put himself in a secondary position.
Lin Mengya thanked him and carefully went inside with the torch in her hand.
The house looked very tidy, and there was nothing suspicious about it.
However, the vase on the table where Lin Mengya had hidden a flower looked a little out of place.
"Lord Lieutenant, look, what is this?"
As she spoke, Lin Mengya deliberately took out the flower branch in the vase.
The branch was not very long, and only the end was still a little watery.
If not for the fresh flower as a comparison, it would have been difficult for ordinary people to guess what it was.
"Isn't this just a lily of the valley? Don't tell me you've only found one flower? "
Zhou Ling had liked to play with swords and spears since he was young, so he naturally didn't recognize the species of these flowers.
The little bit of respect that had just risen in his heart disappeared because of Lin Mengya's behavior.
Lin Mengya was not angry, but just held it in her hand and pushed it in front of Zhou Ling.
"Lord Lieutenant, look carefully. How can an ordinary lily of the valley have such a big bud? Moreover, its fragrance can be fatal. "
Although the most lethal pollen was gone, the smell of the flower had not completely dissipated.
Hearing Lin Mengya's words, Zhou Ling frowned.
How could there be a flower as evil as she said?
But seeing Lin Mengya's confident face, Zhou Ling felt that she was not joking.
He took the flower branch in her hand doubtfully, and was suddenly shocked.
Although it was already a dried flower branch, why did his skin feel numb, and he almost couldn't hold the flower branch in his hand?
"What the hell is this? How could this be? "
This was the first time that Zhou Ling came across such a strange thing.
Lin Mengya smiled apologetically, and then took the flower branch from her hand.
She had forgotten that although she could resist the drug, it would still be harmful to ordinary people.
"Lord Lieutenant, don't worry. This is Ma Teng Lan, a very rare and strong anesthetic. Normally speaking, the anesthetic contained in this bunch of flowers is enough to kill the four palace maids outside without a sound. "
Lin Mengya was already sure that the four female corpses lying in the courtyard outside were the four mysterious people with broken wrists and blood spilling in the unused palace garden.
This drug was very powerful. Not to mention broken wrists, they would not feel any pain even if their skin was peeled off and their bones were broken.
But if this was the case, not to mention moving, they would not even be able to control their breathing.
Why were they still able to move freely in and out of the palace garden?
"Ah — the corpses have come back to life! Help! "
Suddenly, there was a howl coming from the courtyard.
Zhou Ling took the lead and ran into the inner courtyard, only to see a very shocking scene.
The four hideous corpses actually "stood up" from the ground with a carp flip.
The surrounding people were so frightened that they completely forgot to resist.
When Lin Mengya caught up with them, she saw the four corpses walking towards the gate of the courtyard in a very strange posture.
No, that was not the movement of the corpses, but —
"Lord Zhou, cut your sword in that direction."
Lin Mengya patted Zhou Ling and said in a very calm and low voice under the latter's shocked gaze.
Following the direction of Lin Mengya's finger, although Zhou Ling did not know why, he still took out his long sword and threw it in that direction.
"Crack!" Something fell to the ground, followed by the sound of steel wire breaking, and the four corpses fell to the ground with a loud crash.
Everyone looked at the four corpses in shock, but few noticed the expressions on Zhou Ling and Lin Mengya's faces.
"This is …"
Lin Mengya quietly put a finger to her lips and gestured for them to keep quiet.
Sure enough, this could explain the secret of the four of them appearing in the palace garden.
Zhou Ling immediately understood and nodded at Lin Mengya vaguely. He then ordered his frightened subordinates to deal with the four corpses.
While no one noticed, Lin Mengya quietly went to the place where Zhou Ling had thrown his sword.
Although it was a corner and the moonlight was very limited, Lin Mengya could still see clearly.
But Lin Mengya could still see clearly that the thing that fell on the ground should be some kind of mechanism.
Reaching out her hand to touch it, Lin Mengya could not help but smile coldly when she felt a cold and wet sensation.
This mechanism was actually made of ice. Even if she had it, it would be useless.
Not to mention the fact that she could not find any clues, it would melt in a while.
Moreover, it was very easy to make such an ice mechanism. All she needed to do was to find a suitable mold and pour water into it.
Anyway, she had already imprinted the appearance of the mechanism in her mind. The only thing she could do was to start with this mold.
The corpses were rearranged. Because of his cooperation with Lin Mengya just now, Zhou Ling also knew that this was a human's doing, not a ghost's doing.
With this realization, her attitude was firmer and steadier than the others.
Seeing Lin Mengya take back her sword, Zhou Ling could not help but ask in a low voice.
"How was it? Did you find any clues? "
The latter smiled helplessly and said,
"There were no clues at all."
"But didn't I just cut something? How could … "
Lin Mengya looked around to make sure there was no one around before she explained.
"It was made of ice. Even if we had it, it would be useless. Did you find anything from the corpses that entangled them? "
Zhou Ling nodded and Lin Mengya looked at the dark night with a gentle smile on her lips.
"Just now when you hit that thing, I heard a few extremely faint flapping sounds of wings. I think those startled birds must have pulled the thing away. Now, we can't find any clues. Apart from the scars on their bodies caused by the thin thread, the rest of the wounds have all disappeared. "
Although she felt a little unwilling, this time around, the other party's method could be said to be perfect.
All the evidence had automatically disappeared. Even if there were any scars on the corpses, there was no point of reference due to the absence of the murder weapon.
Lin Mengya did not know what method those birds had used, but before they flew away, Lin Mengya could not hear any sound at all.
This time, she could only admit defeat for the time being.
"Reporting to Lord Commander, there are no new scars on the corpses!"
Just as the two of them were fuming with anger, Zhou Ling's subordinate reported back to them, causing their anger to rise even higher.
"How is this possible? Did you check carefully?"
Zhou Ling turned around and scolded his subordinate loudly.
Lin Mengya stared at the corpses, deep in thought.
"Stop scolding her, I'll go take a look."
While she was at it, Lin Mengya helped her subordinate plead for mercy. She rolled up her sleeves and squatted down beside the corpses under the light of the fire.
Under the light of the fire, the beautiful woman stared at the corpses with a straight face. This situation was inexplicably strange.
Lin Mengya reached out and touched the wrist of the corpses.
Ever since she had fused with the venom of the Seven Poison Grass, it was much more convenient to examine the corpses.
Although the muscles of the corpses were a little stiff, she could still feel the elasticity of the skin.
