"Help you find the vegetables." Wang Zhu smiled strangely.

"I'll go to the basement to see first." Ding Zhihui felt feverish from Wang Zhu's fiery eyes, blushing like a deer and quickly pushed Wang Zhu away, bouncing and running towards the basement like a girl who sympathizes with Dou Chukai.

"Look at the eagle catching the chick."

Wang Zhu got up and pretended to chase after him.

"You can't catch me." Ding Zhihui turned his head and smiled at Wang Zhu, and let out a burst of laughter like silver bells, and he had already rushed to the passageway in the basement.

"Hahaha, vixen, where can I escape!"

Seeing the graceful body disappear into the stairwell, Wang Zhu, who was just pretending, was distracted for a while, and hurriedly speeded up to chase after him. As soon as he reached the stairs, a warning signal rose in Wang Zhu's heart.

"Ding Zhihui, stop!" Wang Zhu shouted violently.

"Don't yell, okay, my dad is experimenting." Ding Zhihui, who had already stepped into the stairwell, stopped, turned her head and gave Wang Zhu a blank look, with a coquettish look on her face, obviously, she didn't want to have an affair with Wang Zhu Known by Mr. Ding.

"No, why is the entrance to this secret room open?" The expression on Wang Zhu's face became serious, and he had a hint of ominous premonition.

Wang Cun has already reached the Golden Core stage, and a monk who has reached this level is enough to be called a Golden Core real person. He can already construct thinking projections, false memories in the sea of ​​consciousness, and his understanding of the world and everything has reached a new height. The ability to predict danger is already an instinct, which is similar to the awakening of the sixth sense.

If the sixth sense awakened by Wang Chu in the past was particularly sensitive to danger, then the current Wang Chu not only has a certain ability to predict danger, but also has an extraordinary understanding of vitality.

"What's the matter?" Ding Zhihui was also startled by Wang Zhu's expression.

"come over."

"Hmm." Seeing the seriousness of the situation, Ding Zhihui hurried to Wang Zhu's side, and grabbed Wang Zhu nervously with both hands.

Just as the two were walking carefully along the stairs to the basement hand in hand, Wang Zhu's body stopped suddenly. He saw a woman laying down on the stairs. .

"Ah..." Ding Zhizhi let out a piercing scream.

"Didn't she ask for leave?" Wang Zhu immediately recognized that this woman was the nanny of the Ding family.

"She said it's been a few days." Ding Zhizhi was trembling all over, his legs were weak, and his body was on the verge of falling.

"it's okay no problem."

Wang Zhu supported Ding Zhizhi's limp and graceful body. At this moment, he had no intention of taking advantage of it, so he raised all his energy and approached the underground secret room step by step.

At the same time, Wang Zhu's divine sense rushed towards the secret room like a tide, searching every corner of the secret room.

Wang Zhu's heart sank more and more, because he felt that there was no life in the basement.

No vitality means that there are no living people in the basement.

After confirming that there was no one in the basement, Wang Zhu supported Ding Zhihui, quickened his pace, and within a few breaths, he had reached the underground secret room that was as bright as day.

Everything in the underground secret room was as before, the air was filled with the smell of medicine, a stove was overturned on the ground, a weak flame was still burning on the stove, and the ventilation fan was still working, but on the ground, there were two corpses lying dead——Ding Lao and Old Feng.

Like the nanny, the two of them were also bleeding from seven holes. They looked extremely terrifying, and there were pills scattered all over the place.

"dad!"

Ding Zhihui was stunned for a moment with an unbelievable expression on his face, and then rushed to the side of Ding Lao's body, crying hysterically.

Wang Cun, a big man, didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only walk over and pat his fragrant shoulder lightly. He saw a few bloody characters on the ground - the air is poisonous, go away!

The handwriting was written by Mr. Ding when he was dying. It can be clearly seen that his fingers are worn out. From his twisted body, it can be seen how painful it was for him to write these bloody words.

"Let's get out of here first, the air is poisonous..."

Just as Wang Zhu was about to remind Ding Zhihui, he realized that Ding Zhihui had stopped moving. This time, Wang Zhu was taken aback. He thought that Ding Zhihui was poisoned, so he quickly mobilized his spiritual energy to check her, and found that she was just fainted from grief Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Toxic air?

Why didn't I feel it?

Could it be that the ventilator exhausted all the toxic air?

At this time, Wang Zhu had already confirmed that there was no poison in the air, so he injected spiritual energy into Ding Zhihui to dredge the meridians. Finally, Ding Zhihui woke up faintly.

"Wang stupid... Dad!"

Ding Zhihui opened his eyes and saw that he was actually lying in Wang Zhu's arms, his face blushing, and then he remembered it, turned over and threw himself on Ding Lao's body and began to cry.

"Don't be sad, maybe I can save him..."

"Ah...really?" Ding Zhihui looked at Wang Zhu with tears in his eyes.

"Maybe there is a glimmer of hope... But, you can't mess up your position, calm down, calm down, let's figure things out first

"Yeah, I'm calm, I'm calm."

Ding Zhihui seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, his body was twitching non-stop, desperately trying to restrain his emotions, but tears flowed down uncontrollably.

"I haven't been here for a long time. I don't know the environment here. Calm down. Let's see what happened first, okay?"

"Yeah... ok... ok..." Ding Zhizhi took the tissue that Wang Zhu handed over, and wiped the uncontrollable tears on his face.

"Is the nanny trustworthy?" Wang Zhu asked, scanning every corner of the underground secret room.

"Trustworthy." Ding Zhizhi nodded affirmatively.

"Well, if the nanny can be trusted, then the poison in the air should not have been put by the nanny. If she had put it, she wouldn't have died here... Eh, have you seen this cauldron before?"

Wang Zhu looked around and his eyes fell on the furnace cauldron that fell on the ground. This furnace cauldron was made of bronze with a simple and exquisite style, and there were ancient characters all over it. Judging from the mottled green rust, it could be seen that the time is far away. antiquities.

"No." Ding Zhizhi shook his head affirmatively, "Not yesterday."

"Things happened on this furnace."

Wang Zhu took a closer look at the spare herbs in the furnace, and he was sure that none of the items used to make the elixirs were poisonous, even if they were randomly mixed together, they would not be poisoned.

Next, Wang Chu checked the pills scattered around Elder Ding and Elder Feng.

Wang Zhu found that the pills scattered around them were all life-saving pills, and both of them had a lot of pills in their mouths when they were dying, which meant that ordinary pills couldn't cure the poison they were suffering from. .

Judging from the self-rescue of the two when they were dying, the two had already realized the poisoning, but their limbs were unable to escape, and Ding Lao wrote a blood book at the last minute to remind his daughter.

Why did the nanny die on the stairs?

There are only two possibilities: first, the nanny herself was assisting the two in alchemy in the underground secret room, and they were poisoned together; second, the nanny came to look for Mr. Ding temporarily, found something wrong, wanted to escape, but was also poisoned, and died at the stairs.

Regarding the first possibility, Wang Chu thinks it is difficult to establish, because if the nanny assists Ding Laofeng in alchemy, he will die in the secret room instead of the stairwell.

Obviously, the nanny called Mr. Ding to go upstairs for something, or told the two to have dinner. When they came down, they saw that the two were poisoned and died, so they went out to call for help, but before they could run to the first floor, they died in the stairwell. This reason is very suitable for the environment. After all, the nanny is an ordinary person, and even two highly respected pharmacists can't resist the highly poisonous thing. ordinary people...

...

Now, all the problems are concentrated on this ancient furnace.

Ding Zhihui said that he didn't see the furnace yesterday, so that means that Mr. Ding only got the furnace today.

Elder Ding and Elder Feng seldom go out. Except for occasional visits to He Nian Hall, they spend most of their time refining alchemy in this underground secret room. In theory, it is impossible for him to go out to buy the furnace cauldron.

Even if it is to be acquired, it is absolutely impossible to be able to trade in a short period of time. Moreover, Ding Zhihui has no reason not to know the clues of such a large transaction. After all, Ding Lao is only her daughter. If it is a huge property transaction, Ding Zhihui will definitely be informed.

Judging from the temperature of the corpses of Mr. Ding and Mr. Feng, they have been dead for a long time. It is very likely that they died of poisoning before eating lunch, and the nanny probably came to call Ding after the meal was cooked. Lao and Feng Lao died unexpectedly while eating.

If the above is true, considering the time, that is to say, just before Ding Zhihui went to work, neither Ding Lao nor Feng Lao had a furnace, and at noon, the two died of poisoning.

Obviously, the time when Ding Lao and Feng Lao got the furnace was in the morning after Ding Zhihui went to work, and then the two couldn't wait to try out the new furnace.

The target of suspicion once again fell on the nanny.

There is no doubt that the nanny is the biggest suspect.

Calculating from time, the nanny met all the above characteristics. If so, then the furnace was brought back by the nanny.

But why did the nanny poison Mr. Ding and Mr. Feng to death?

The most important thing is that if the nanny wanted to poison Mr. Ding and Mr. Feng to death, she would not be poisoned to death herself. Obviously, even she herself didn't know that the furnace could poison people to death.

It seems that the nanny was unintentional.

Now the question is, how did the nanny get this bronze stove?

Although Wang Zhu didn't have much research on antiques, after he acquired a large number of treasures from Qin Shihuang's period last time, he made up a lot of relevant knowledge, especially after selling a few antiques, Wang Zhu had a new understanding of antiques.

Wang Chu believed that such an exquisite bronze antique would sell for at least several million. After a little hype, it would be tens of millions. It is impossible for a low-key person like a nanny to own such an antique.

Even if the nanny had such an antique, she would never wait until today to bring it over for Ding Lai.

Based on the above, it is untenable for the nanny to poison Mr. Ding to death, and it is impossible for her to possess such an exquisite antique.

The only possibility is that the nanny was trapped and brought Lu Ding to Ding's residence. r1058
