Chapter 35 The Prince's Sudden Death

Chapter 035 The Prince's sudden death

day to day……

Three days later, Lin Yuerou finally left.

Seeing the back of Lin Yuerou riding his horse away, Su Chen felt a little empty in his heart.

With a sigh, Su Chen returned to the palace.

"Master, you are back."

As soon as he returned to the Danqing Hall, Huang Zhan rushed over anxiously.

"Did something happen?"

Huang Zhan hurriedly said, "The prince died suddenly!"

"Chu Aofeng is dead?"

Su Chen frowned slightly, and immediately asked, "When did it happen?"

"Two days ago, I died suddenly and violently in the Prince's Mansion. After the autopsy, the imperial physicians concluded that the prince died of poisoning, and it was an unprecedented poison. Now there are rumors in the palace that it was you, Shizun, who poisoned the prince. "Huang Zhan said worriedly.

A pharmacist can not only refine medicinal pills to cure diseases and save lives, but also refine poisons that kill invisible people. Su Chen is now a well-known master-level medicine master, and only he has the ability to make invisible medicines that kill people. Poison, it is normal to suspect that it is on his head.

"Someone trying to frame me?"

Su Chen had a bad feeling.

Huang Zhan said: "Now Chu Tianming is very sad, I think you should go to the Holy Spirit in person and explain it, so as not to leave a grudge in Chu Tianming's heart."

Su Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Take me to see Chu Tianming."

Not long after, Su Chen came to the Prince's Mansion, and saw that the surrounding area of ​​the Prince's Mansion was heavily guarded. All the eunuchs and palace maids were wearing mourning clothes, wearing linen and filial piety, and cries were constantly heard from the Prince's Mansion.

When the father-in-law who guarded the door saw Su Chen, he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to greet him: "Congratulations to the National Teacher."

Su Chen noticed that the eunuch looked at him with a look of fear.

Su Chen strode into the prince's mansion, and soon saw Chu Tianming and many of the prince's family in the hall.

Before Su Chen spoke, a woman in black picked up a dagger and stabbed it.

"Su Chen, you return my emperor's life!"

This woman is Chu Tianming's wife, Xiao Tong, the empress of the state of Chu.

Su Chen clasped the dagger in one hand and shook the dagger out.

Chu Tianming hurried over and scolded: "Empress, what are you doing crazy, the reason for the matter has not yet been found out, how can you frame the National Teacher for no reason?

"But Your Majesty..." Empress Xiao's crying pear blossoms brought rain: "The imperial physician has said that only the master can refine the poison in the sea of ​​bitterness. In the entire southern border, he is the only master refining medicine, Su Chen, who else can treat me except him. The emperor is so poisonous!"

Su Chen frowned: "Bitter sea poison? Could the emperor let me see the prince's body first."

Chu Tianming immediately asked the palace maid to pull Empress Xiao away, and took Su Chen to the apse to see Chu Aofeng's body.

Chu Aofeng was already dead, but there was no injury on his body. Even two days after he died, the body did not show any signs of decay, but there was a dent the thickness of a thumb print between his eyebrows, as if his forehead had collapsed. A bit like it.

This is a phenomenon that occurs only after the sea of ​​consciousness is dissolved.

The Sea of ​​Consciousness is located between the cultivator's eyebrows, three points into the brain, also known as Upper Dantian, Yuanhai, and is the place where the soul lives.

Everyone is born with a sea of ​​consciousness, but to open up a sea of ​​consciousness, one needs to break through the heavenly realm.

Before breaking through the heavenly realm, the sea of ​​consciousness was in a semi-closed state, the vitality entered in the same way, the soul could not be strengthened, and it was of no great use.

But the sea of ​​consciousness is still the most important part of the human body. Once the sea of ​​consciousness is damaged, the soul will be broken and scattered.

Absolutely dead.

"It is indeed the poison of the sea of ​​bitterness. This poison is extracted from nine kinds of highly poisonous things, such as soul-cutting grass, nine evil worms, five poisonous toads, etc. It takes seven, seven and forty-nine days to form. But it is very strange that this kind of bitter sea poison It's very rare, it's usually used to deal with experts in the realm, how can it be used on the prince."

Su Chen was very puzzled. Even if he was asked to refine this kind of poison, it would take a long time just to collect the materials, and it would be even more troublesome to refine. There is no problem with the masters of the heavenly realm.

Chu Aofeng is no better than the realm of cultivation. Although he is a crown prince, he has no real power. If it is Su Chen, such a good poison will never be wasted on Chu Aofeng, and even Chu Tianming is not worth using the sea of ​​bitterness. The poison is more suitable for other heavenly masters.

"Breaking Soul Grass... Su Guoshi, in the entire southern border, there is only one place that produces Soul Breaking Grass."

"Oh? Where?"

If you can find the soul-broken grass, you may find some clues.

Chu Tianming said, "It's right at the Broken Dragon Cliff in our country of Chu."

Broken Dragon Cliff?

Isn't that a place close to the border of the Dragon Kingdom. It is backed by Jiuyin Mountain. It has been a place of evil since ancient times, and all kinds of poisons are gathered in this area.

Su Chen said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will set off on a trip to Broken Dragon Cliff to find clues, and I will definitely find the murderer behind the murder of the Prince."

"If I can get the help of the national teacher, I will feel at ease. As long as I find the murderer who poisoned my emperor, I will kill him at all costs!" Chu Tianming said with gritted teeth, looking at Chu Aofeng whose bones were cold, Tears of grief were left behind.

...

"Master? Are you really going to Broken Dragon Cliff? Broken Dragon Cliff is not scary, but the nearby Jiuyin Mountain is the most evil place, and it is extremely dangerous." Huang Zhan couldn't help reminding.

Su Chen said: "I am also very interested in the poison of the sea of ​​bitterness. Even if we don't find out who killed Chu Aofeng, it would be good to be able to collect some materials for refining the poison of the sea of ​​bitterness."

Huang Zhan hesitated for a moment and said, "The disciple will also go with Master."

"You keep it for the house. This time, let Ning Xiaoran follow me. She is a ghost servant of heaven, so it is more appropriate to go with me."

Ning Xiaoran, whose red dress was swaying, suddenly fell from the beam: "Xiaoran obeys."

Su Chen patted his chest, and said angrily, "Don't just squat on the beam when you're okay, it's scary and fun."

"Hee hee..." Ning Xiaoran stuck out her tongue playfully.

It's just that with her ghostly image, no matter how cute she is, she can't be cute.

That afternoon, Su Chen left the palace with Ning Xiaoran and set off along the official road in Dongcheng.

Walking on this road, Su Chen aroused many thoughts.

A year ago, he was escorted from Dragon Country to Chu Country by this route, and he suffered a lot along the way.

This time, Su Chen set off lightly, instead of driving a carriage, he requisitioned Chu Yanran's snow velvet tiger.

Snow Velvet Tiger's tenth profound realm monster, although not very strong, is extremely fast, capable of handling all kinds of complex terrains and environments. Horses are much more powerful.

Speeding all the way, it took almost half a day for Su Chen to arrive at the eastern border of Chu State.

At the end of the field of vision, a continuous mountain range blocks the way, that is Jiuyin Mountain.
