Chapter 607: Helpless
An hour later.
Gu Chan sat on the edge of the iron bed, holding her chin in her hands, speechless to the extreme.
During this period of time, she conducted various examinations on this half of the body, and also used silver needles to test it, but could not find out the cause at all.
Even her powerful spiritual energy was helpless.
When the little maid guarding the door saw this, she couldn't help walking up to her and said, "Shopkeeper Gu, do you need my help?"
"Come, sit down." Gu Chan said with a smile.
Then she reached out and took the little girl's white hands, and sat next to her.
The little maid was young, and when Gu Chan suddenly held her hand, her little face turned red with embarrassment.
After sitting next to Gu Chan, she lowered her head shyly, not daring to look at Gu Chan at all, just because Gu Chan was a woman disguised as a man, and she was very handsome. In the eyes of the little maid, she was a handsome and charming girl. What a handsome little guy! How could it not make her feel excited?
Gu Chan didn't think so much, but asked in a low voice, "Let me ask you, how long have you been lying here like this?"
"It's been more than a month." said the little maid.
"Then who usually comes to feed him?" Gu Chan asked.
The little maid thought for a while and said, "There are people who specialize in guarding the dungeon. It's my first time coming down here, so I'm a little scared."
"Then where did he live before? Can you take me to see it?" Gu Chan said.
"You'll live in the guard courtyard behind the City Lord's Mansion. If you want to go, I'll take you there." The little maid nodded in agreement.
Gu Chan didn't say anything more and immediately pulled her up and left the secret room.
Soon the two came out of the dungeon and rushed towards the guard courtyard behind the city lord's palace.
After arriving at the guard courtyard, Gu Chan discovered that there was no one there at the moment. The guards were all guarding or patrolling the city lord's palace. No one dared to come back to rest and be lazy at this time.
The little maid led Gu Chan to the door of the room where the original owner lived and said, "Shopkeeper Gu, he used to live here. After the accident, this room was locked up and no one dared to go in." .”
"Wait for me at the door. I'll go in and take a look." Gu Chan ordered.
The little maid nodded quietly and waited obediently outside the door.
Gu Chan walked to the door, reached out and unscrewed the big lock on the door, then opened the door and walked in.
As soon as she entered the house, a musty smell hit her face. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose with her hands. She walked around the house. She found that in addition to some furniture, there were only some clothes and bedding, and there were also things on the table. A knife and nothing else.
Gu Chan walked to the table, reached for the knife on the table, pulled it out of the scabbard, lowered her head and examined it carefully.
It was during this inspection that she unexpectedly discovered that the blade was stained with some strange green liquid. She took out the silver needle bag from the bag on her waist, took out a silver needle and dipped it in the green liquid to try it. The tip of the silver needle quickly turned pitch black.
"It's such a powerful poison. It seems I have to ask Ye Tianyang about it." Gu Chan said with a frown.
After saying that, she immediately put the knife back into the scabbard, took it and left the house, and then asked the little maid to take her to find Ye Tianyang. After a while, the little maid brought Gu Chan to the study.
At this time, Ye Tianyang was sitting behind the desk, processing official documents. When he saw Gu Chan coming, he stopped and said, "How is the investigation going?"
"Nothing was gained. I used my spiritual energy to probe into the body of the half-la body, but I couldn't find out the cause of the disease. Anyway, the half-la body looked normal." Gu Chan said helplessly.
Ye Tianyang smiled and didn't say much.
You know, it has been more than half a year since the strange disease occurred. If it were really so easy to find the cause, he would have found it long ago. What's the matter with Gu Chan?
So this situation was already expected by him.
Gu Chan didn't talk nonsense to him. She directly slapped the knife in her hand on the desk and said, "This is the knife that the half-drawn bodyguard used before. I found some unknown green liquid on the knife and tried it with a silver needle." , this is extremely poisonous, I want to ask you, what kind of poison is this?”
Ye Tianyang picked up the knife and pulled it out, carefully checked the green liquid stained on the knife, and then frowned and said, "If I read it correctly, this should be Green King Powder, which is only available in the largest drug store in Yaoye City, Wuyuanfang Only then.”
"It's been so long, you haven't noticed the poison on this knife, right?" Gu Chan asked.
"I didn't find it. When I found him before, there was no such thing on the knife. After that, I had all his belongings locked in his house." Ye Tianyang explained.
Gu Chan stretched out her hand and scratched her head and said, "No way! Could it be that someone else touched his knife later?"
"This is impossible. After his house was sealed, no one has entered it. I think it is possible that the knife was stained with Green King Powder before, because this poison is colorless and odorless, and it sticks to the knife. It's usually difficult to find, and it will only change color after seeing blood," Ye Tianyang said.
"Oh! So that's it! That means that the triggering condition for a poison like Green King Powder must be when it encounters blood. If it doesn't encounter blood, it's actually very difficult for it to become toxic, right?" Gu Chan asked.
Ye Tianyang nodded noncommittally.
Gu Chan made a decision immediately, "Okay, I'll leave the knife here with you for now, and I'll go to Wuyuanfang to have a look."
"Would you like me to send two guards to follow you?" Ye Tianyang said.
"No need, just have this little maid. And to put it bluntly, you don't need to send people to monitor me. I won't do anything bad. Just let me move freely." Gu Chan said with a smile.
After saying that, she took the little maid and left directly.
Ye Tianyang sat there, looking at the knife in his hand with a gloomy expression, and fell into deep thought.
He also didn't understand why the knife he was guarding was contaminated with poison like Green King Powder. Before the guard's accident, he had never given any order to the guard to buy any poison.
Therefore, the appearance of this poison is indeed somewhat suspicious.
At noon, Gu Chancai and the little maid came to the gate of Wuyuanfang leisurely.
As the largest drug store in Yaoye City, Wuyuanfang is as high as five floors. The first floor is for medical consultation, with about ten doctors sitting inside. The second to fifth floors are for collecting and selling medicines and for hospital patients. land.
This means that it is different from an ordinary drug store. In modern terms, this place is more like a five-story medium-sized clinic. Patients come to see a doctor. If their condition is too serious and it is not suitable to go home to recuperate, they can They stay here and are cared for and treated by specialized personnel.
After understanding the situation, Gu Chan led the little maid in.
However, what was unexpected was that as soon as Gu Chan entered the lobby and saw the female shopkeeper sitting behind the counter in front of her, she was immediately dumbfounded.
