Zhou Xuan was taken aback by Ye Qingtang's sudden words, and he sneered.
"Junior Sister Ye, we still need to investigate the situation of the three hundred over human heads. I don't blame you for being young and playful, but you shouldn't use such arbitrary words to cover it up. This concerns the lives of the three hundred over people in Spirit Condensation Mountain Village. Every corpse here needs to be examined carefully so that no trace of clues can be missed. This is not something that you can cover up with just a few words. You're really taking it too lightly. "
The other two disciples were obviously impatient as well. They did not believe that Ye Qingtang could investigate the situation of the three hundred human heads in such a short time and come up with such a perfunctory conclusion.
Ye Qingtang smiled at everyone's doubts. Her fair and tender fingertips brushed past the pus that flowed down from the rotten flesh. She pinched open the chin of the head and pulled out the rotten tongue.
"Senior Brother Zhou, can you see clearly what's wrong with this person's tongue?"
Zhou Xuan frowned slightly as he looked at the rotten tongue that was almost out of shape. He felt disgusted, but he pretended to be calm. "It's just a rotten tongue."
Ye Qingtang chuckled and pulled out the dagger from her waist with her other hand. She scraped off the thin layer of mucus on the tongue and showed it to Zhou Xuan.
Zhou Xuan almost vomited on the spot when he saw the disgusting mucus that suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Senior Brother Zhou, although this tongue is so rotten that it's out of shape, the Duanyuan Grass that was hidden in the coating of the tongue is still well-preserved."
"Duanyuan Grass?" Zhou Xuan's expression changed slightly. He suppressed the urge to vomit and looked at the mucus on the dagger carefully.
As expected, there were some dark green plant fragments in the filth. However, the fragments were very small, and it was impossible to notice them if one looked carefully.
"Duanyuan Grass is a kind of poisonous grass that grows on the edge of cliffs. Although this kind of herb is not fatal, it will make people faint in a very short period of time. They will lose all their senses, and they will not wake up even if there is a big movement around them.
Moreover, Duanyuan Grass does not have any smell. If it's crushed and mixed into tea, people will at most think that it's tea foam, and no one will notice it. "
Ye Qingtang smiled and said,
"The night when everyone in Spirit Condensation Mountain Village was killed was Village Master Wu Chengze's birthday banquet. After a busy night, everyone in the village is exhausted, and it's normal for them to drink some tea to quench their thirst. but this tea mixed with Duanyuan Grass is enough to make everyone in Spirit Condensation Mountain Village faint instantly. I'm afraid they will not even know how they died."
Ye Qingtang's unhurried words caused the faces of Zhou Xuan and the rest to turn pale instantly.
Previously, they realized that all the victims in Spirit Condensation Mountain Village did not resist at all before they died. They suspected that they were poisoned and checked with the silver needles on the corpses. However, the needles did not turn black at all.
They thought that they were thinking in the wrong direction. After all, even the most basic drugs could cause the silver needles to turn black.
But they never thought that the murderer would use the unrefined Duanyuan Grass.
