The coroner pointed out some buckwheat crumbs from the spices.

Su Peisheng added from the side, "However, that object is actually aired out frequently, so if it were bugs that infested buckwheat, they wouldn't look like this..."

He came from a poor family and had seen buckwheat when he was a child.

The coroner continued, “Your Excellency has considered everything thoroughly. This is also what I have been pondering. So I dared to use some spices and insects to test it, and only then did I dare to draw my conclusion. It turns out that frequent airing will not attract insects, but when these spices are mixed with buckwheat, insects will appear even more, and even daily airing cannot stop them. In addition, these spices can also protect the insects. With these spices present, as long as they are exposed to light, the insects will not be seen.”

The fourth master, already seething with anger, exclaimed, "What harm is there in this insect...?"

The coroner couldn't help but sigh: "Originally, it might have just been a matter of nibbling away at buckwheat, but with these spices mixed in, it's like they're drilling into ears and eating brains... I've never heard of such ruthless methods in my life..."

Fu Lu, who was standing nearby, had already gasped in shock. He couldn't help but touch his ear, thankfully, it was still there.

Fourth Master felt as if a sharp blade had pierced his heart, an overwhelming nausea coursing through his body: "Can't find anything?"

The coroner shook his head: "Although this insect is harmful, it is often mixed with spices and has also absorbed some of their benefits. When it burrows into the human body, it may seem to have some good effects at first glance, but in the long run, I'm afraid the person's body will become an empty shell..."

What he didn't say was that if it were a child, he would probably die quietly in less than half a year.

Even adults are probably not much better off.

Fourth Master closed his eyes: "Su Peisheng, thank you very much, Coroner Zhang. I hope that you will pretend that today's events never happened."

Old Zhang had never heard someone of Fourth Master's status address him as "Sir" before, so he quickly bowed and said, "This servant will keep his mouth shut..."

Su Peisheng personally saw the person out, and his heart sank.

Such methods are truly appalling.
