red.

granular.

Stretch your hand to the window, and you can still see a slight luster.

Seeing that Lin Jian was about to sniff it, Su Mu hurriedly patted him on the arm, "Don't touch this thing lightly."

"I know, just to make sure it's cinnabar..." Lin Jian was a little guilty and her eyes fluttered in the middle of speaking.

Although I haven't messed with these things for some days, the familiar smell can't be covered up no matter what. Seeing that people are staring at her, Lin Jian can only laugh, "By the way, why is there in my room? I really don't have the slightest impression."

"Just don't make an example." Su Mu pulled a cloth towel and signaled Lin Jian to clean his hands.Normally, knowing that Lin Jian hadn't given up, he would have warned him anyway, but right now...forget it...he felt that he was still floating.

"Yeah, it's all right." Lin Jian quickly wiped his hands clean and turned around again, "I haven't been back since that time. Logically speaking, no one should touch these things." .”

Although no one has lived there for two months, I turned around and found no dust. Obviously, someone was cleaning it. Lin Jian muttered, but Su Mu came over and said, "Since it was cleaned, where are you? found?"

"It's scattered here. When I came in, I opened the door and saw a red patch. I was really shocked." Lin Jian hurriedly walked a few steps, and stopped moving when he reached the door.Then he pulled the door leaf and pushed it back and forth, "Look, if the cleaning person wants to come in and pulls both doors so thoroughly, it's not surprising that he didn't notice this."

"Then Ajian came back that night and didn't touch these things."

"No, no." Lin Jian shook her head quickly, "I remember very clearly that I was going to rush back that night, but I happened to hit the drums of the night ban, and fell asleep soon afterward."

When Lin Jian said this, she tried very hard to think about the scene when she came back last time, but after a while, she really didn't expect there to be even a small discrepancy.

"Why did you leave it here, I don't have the right to ask. However, someone wanted to take Dansha out, and when he passed by the door, he probably scattered because of panic. He didn't even know it later. I’ve been back, otherwise, I would have cleaned this place carefully, instead of leaving a handle for us to see. So I want to know, what can this thing do?”

"It is recorded in "Baopuzi" that cinnabar can be burned into mercury, and then transformed into cinnabar. I read that book over and over again, but I don't know what the method of accumulating transformation is."

Speaking of this, Lin Jian became interested. He was about to have a big talk, but when he looked up, he saw that Su Mu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Then he realized what he said, and quickly suppressed his voice, "He also said Dansha It is the superior among the elixir, more precious than gold."

The last sentence was full of depression, Su Mu couldn't hold back, and still laughed out loud, "Then why don't you dare?"

This is a mocking laugh...

Lin Jian was a little angry and felt ashamed.

"This stuff is poisonous. Except for those who really think they can become immortals, not many people can really eat it."

"So... I just think about it."

Being mentioned in this way, Su Mu really remembered that there seemed to be such a thing in the pharmacy.

"It's not right if it's symptomatic." Lin Jian still didn't look up.

The things in the pharmacy are good medicine if they are right for the symptoms, and terrible if they are not right for the symptoms.Lin Jian continued to mutter these things.But Su Mu paused, "Ah Jian, do you still remember? Ah Lian told us that in the letter, it was mentioned that Ah Mo was given medicine to let him go. The night before the accident in Xiangwu, she also said that she saw a horse character .”

"No... that's right." Once the fragmentary and clueless things were connected together, it would be a bit scary. Lin Jian only had time to knock on the forehead before running out in a hurry, "Then we Let's drag old man Lin to the stables for a run."

However, after running a few steps, Su Mu hurriedly stopped him, "Don't worry, although you are most likely to have cinnabar here in the entire Lin Mansion, it cannot be ruled out that it was brought in by outsiders. Let's see if you have less here first." No."

"Oh, I was so anxious that I forgot about this." Lin Jian ran towards the cage in the corner, and before squatting down, he glanced at Su Mu again, and found that the other party turned around on purpose. A bunch of babies.

After waiting for a while, Lin Jianjian bowed his head and went to the door, "Sure enough, a large piece was dug out."

After finishing speaking, he took a cloth towel and wrapped some, and the two went straight to Dr. Lin's small courtyard.

"Young master still doesn't teach people to live in peace as before."

Dr. Lin was dragged all the way here, staring at him as he straightened his clothes.

"You don't have a beard, so you don't have any momentum." After Lin Jian finished speaking, she hid behind Su Mu, but poked her head out to make a face.

"Ah Jian." Su Mu couldn't help laughing, but he could only bear the reminder.Thanks to Dr. Lin, the current atmosphere is no longer tense as before.

"Why does Ah Jian want to argue with others?" When Dr. Lin walked a few steps to the stable, Su Mu turned around and muttered softly.

"It's not that he always uses needles to bluff people, but it hurts so much." Lin Jian bit the flesh on her lips to imitate human movements, and was learning vigorously, but the other party suddenly turned her head.

……

This is really not ordinary embarrassment.

Lin Jian froze in place immediately, and did not forget to elbow the person who was laughing at him.

"Didn't you say you found cinnabar at that time? Do you still have it?" Dr. Lin just yelled, as if he turned a deaf ear to the scene just now.

"Oh, yes, here." Lin Jian responded and ran over, but Su Mu quickly grabbed his sleeve.

"what happened?"

Lin Jian turned her head and glanced at her cuffs.The cloth over there was tightly grasped, and it was already a little wrinkled.

The owner of the hand seemed to be as nervous as it was, "Why don't I go over there."

At first, she didn't notice it, but Lin Jian didn't know it now.Presumably the fact that he was almost kicked by Ashe at that time is still deeply remembered by this person until now.

"It's okay, although Ah Xue has a bad temper, she is very human."

"Then let's go together." Su Mu still grabbed his sleeve.The impatient person shouted, "Hurry up, two young masters."

Lin Jian handed over the cloth bag wrapped in cinnabar, and felt a little hot in the face.Although he looked through the railing, in fact he only saw it with his eyes.I don't know if it's an illusion... Su Mu seems to have become a little clingy... Lin Jian felt a little inexplicable when he thought of this.

The next moment, he felt someone pulling him, "Be careful."

Dr. Lin was moving forward with a cloth bag, and turned back with a cold face, "Stay back."

Lin Jian was still a little dazed, and was pulled out a few steps.

At this time, he didn't care about anything, but just stared at his eyes.

The cloth bag was getting closer and closer to Ah Xue, it half-lyed on the spot, poised its head to sniff, Lin Jian could see the anger in the horse's eyes, and immediately after that, a snort knocked him out.

"Horses are like people. If they eat cinnabar by mistake, they will be poisoned. In mild cases, they will have nausea and vomiting and loss of appetite. In severe cases, they will vomit blood." Dr. Lin passed the cloth bag and rewrapped it again, "Be careful before putting it away." OK."

"Then what do you think Ah Mo is doing now?" Su Mu took the cloth bag and couldn't help but look inside.

"It's much better now, but it can't tell whether it is on guard against this thing or instinctively resisting it today. I can only heal people, I am really ashamed."

……

Su Mu was about to make amends for his wrong words, but Dr. Lin changed the subject and looked towards Lin Jian, "Young Master also saw it at the stable that day. I wonder if you still remember the scene at that time. In short, it has been cleaned many times now, and there is no trace at all."

"I also came here at the time and saw something red in the manger. I only thought it had lost its temper and scratched its tongue, but I didn't think about it in other ways."

"Ah, that's right." Lin Jian jumped up, "I saw it at the time, but I didn't dare to get too close. In this way, it may be cinnabar, but it may also be vomiting blood caused by poisoning."

Afterwards, the voice became lower and lower, and Lin Jian wanted to get in, but was held back by the two of them.

"Madam also invited a horse doctor from outside to the mansion. She said that it was probably poisoning, and she is already recovering now. It's just that her temperament has become worse."

Doctor Lin's last sentence can be regarded as persuading Lin Jian.After being coaxed by Su Mu, he headed towards the main courtyard.

"Mother remembers very clearly that no one has ever entered the East Courtyard except for the time you came back by yourself."

Mrs. Lin shook her head, but the sound of the hairpin rings on her head disappeared.Only then did Lin Jian notice that his mother was also dressed in plain clothes, and most of the original headgear had been removed, presumably it was because of Xiangwu.

"That……"

What about Xiangling?

Has she ever been here?

Lin Jian wanted to ask, but stopped when the words came to her lips.

Ah Xue was designed to run away, originally to cover up A Jie's whereabouts.

But Xiangwu, the only one who might know something, was murdered.

All of this seems to have something to do with Xiang Ling.

But... once asked, relying on mother's quick-wittedness, maybe there are things that worried her even more.

Lin Jian motioned to Su Mu, who shook his head slightly. Lin Jian wanted to blink to see if he understood, but this time, Mrs. Lin took a slap, "Ah Jian, what did you want to ask just now?"

"It's nothing...Maybe it's because I remembered it wrong."

"Where's dad?" Lin Jian looked behind the screen, and when his dad responded and walked over, he shrank back again.

"Ah Jian, let's go to rest first. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it when my mother goes to the east courtyard later."

Mrs. Lin leaned closer, and Lin almost shivered when she walked out.

"I feel that what my mother wants to say and what we want to say... don't seem to be the same thing."

"It's okay, it won't be too late when we find the actual evidence." Su Mu comforted, and the two returned to the East Courtyard.
