Li Feihu fell into deep thought as he listened to the quarrel between the two.

This case is so strange that it is completely confusing.

The coroner from the neighboring county had just come to examine the bodies and confirmed that none of the three showed any symptoms of poisoning.

The people who were on night watch at the post station or the exile team reported that, apart from Liu Ming who got up to relieve himself in the middle of the night, no one else was active outside.

What was even more bizarre was that when Liu Ming was found, he died with his eyes open. His eyes were staring at the sky in horror, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

But now it is the last month of winter, and there is thick snow everywhere.

According to the first group of people who got up at that time, apart from Liu Ming's own footprints, there was no trace of anyone else passing by him!

He once heard someone say that even a person with extremely high martial arts skills could only leave a faint shadow when walking on the snow.

There is no way it will be like what you saw this morning!

There was absolutely no sign of anyone else passing by on the surrounding snow!

In other words, Liu Ming seemed to see something floating in the air. And then, he was scared to death!

Thinking of this, Li Feihu couldn't help but feel his hair stand on end and broke out in a cold sweat.

When he was a child, he often listened to stories told by the old ladies in the village. They said that those who behaved badly would be taken away by fierce ghosts in the middle of the night.

He thought that Liu Ming and others, apart from giving the Sheng family some face, usually relied on the fact that Liu Ming had a distant relative working as an official in the Ministry of Justice and never took his superior seriously.

They have always tried every possible way to extort and blackmail the fugitives, either beating or scolding them.

During the previous exile trips we took together, several lives were lost at the hands of these three!

Li Feihu's face was gloomy, and he inexplicably felt a chill running up his spine. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his guess made sense.

Looking at the late face, he just wanted to leave this unlucky place as soon as possible.

Seeing that Sheng Dehai and Lin Shaoxuan were still arguing like two black-eyed chickens, Li Feihu just thought they were venting their anger in private.

The officers were ordered to quickly separate the two men and symbolically search the bodies of everyone in Sheng Dehai's family.

After finding nothing suspicious, he prepared to set off with the exile team.

Sheng Dehaicheng hoped that the eldest branch of the Sheng family would suffer misfortune. Seeing that Li Feihu did not pursue the matter any further, he hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of Li Feihu:

"Master, please look for it again! Those people in the first house are very cunning! How could such fatal evidence be hidden only in the bag?! You have to search their clothes and the soles of their shoes too!"

"Sir, you don't know! Sheng San usually likes to do some crooked things! Even... Even I was framed by him this time... and was sentenced to exile!"

"This is a subtle trick that no one can detect. It's obviously his work!"

When Sheng Dehai thought of the disgusting things that were inexplicably buried in his yard, he was overwhelmed with hatred.

He has been in Beijing for many years and has seen much more than Li Feihu, a low-ranking official. Of course, he would not attribute all the inexplicable things to the power of ghosts and gods.

His intuition told him that if Sheng Yichen could evade his heavy guards and quietly bury the disgusting things in his yard, he must also be able to quietly kill a few officials.

Moreover, in the entire exile team, apart from him, there is no one else who has this ability!

In Sheng Dehai's heart, Sheng San couldn't get away from this matter.

He was determined to make a big fuss about this matter and force the officials to investigate thoroughly! He wanted to make everyone in the Sheng family's eldest house suffer!

Sheng Dehai seemed to have made up his mind. He stood in front of Li Feihu with a proud and confident manner, and refused to let him go.

"Master, believe me! This matter cannot possibly have nothing to do with the eldest branch of the Sheng family!"

Li Feihu frowned at the smell of rotten sewage on him. The people in the Sheng family's main house also had expressions of intolerance.

Sheng Yichen's eyes were gloomy, but his face was cynical and casual. He interrupted him and said:

"Oh! Second Uncle, you are so funny! People can eat shit! Is there anything in this world that is definitely possible or impossible?!"

The next moment, he flicked his fingers in his sleeves lightly, and a small stone flew towards Sheng Dehai's ankle at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye!

To those who didn't know martial arts, it seemed that Sheng Dehai had suddenly slipped.

He rushed directly towards the large pool of horse dung diagonally in front of him!

"Bang--"

Before he could respond, his entire face came into close contact with the brown object on the ground.

“Hahahahaha——”

All the exiles couldn't help laughing.

Even many people who had previously followed him in saying bad things about the eldest branch of the Sheng family couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Sheng Dehai only felt a foul odor filling his throat. He didn't care about the injuries he suffered, he jumped up and spat out the contents of his mouth.

Still feeling it was not enough, I scooped up a handful of snow to rinse my mouth, and only then did I feel better.

"Sheng...bah...Sheng Yichen! You, an unfilial son, actually teased your elders to this extent! Bah...you you you...you are simply shameless to the extreme!"

Sheng Dehai knew he couldn't beat his opponent, so he could only stand far away and yell.

Not far away, Sheng Yichen had a flamboyant smile on his face, as if he was enjoying the expression of being unable to kill him.

"Uncle, you're confused after falling down, aren't you? I'm three meters away from you, and you're going to blame me for your fall?!"

Then he admired Sheng Dehai's body covered in mud and horse feces and laughed:

"Hahaha! Uncle, I just casually said that people can eat shit, why did you actually demonstrate it to everyone?!"

"You are so polite. I am so embarrassed, nephew!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the laughter nearby became even louder.

Some people saw Sheng Dehai fall down inexplicably, and they remembered that he had said before that Sheng Yichen was very good at crooked ways. They really doubted Sheng Yichen.

After hearing what he said, 꿯 dispelled her doubts and laughed heartlessly.

Li Feihu shook his head helplessly, thinking that Sheng Dehai had suffered a heavy blow recently, which was why he frequently made a fool of himself in front of everyone.

After quickly asking his officers to count the number of people in the exile team, he shouted to everyone to set off.

They lost too much time this morning.

Even for breakfast, each person was given a black steamed bun to eat on the way, not to mention that there was no time to clean the horse feces off Sheng Dehai's face.

He had no chance to take a shower these two days. His body was already covered in dirt, sweat, and blood, and now it was covered in horse feces.

No matter how you wipe it, you can still smell a very penetrating odor.

Everyone in the exile team showed a look of disgust on their faces, and they all tried to stay away from him.

Even those who had sympathized with him before now avoided him like a snake or a scorpion. No one wanted to help him move forward...

As expected, the further north we went, the heavier the snow and wind became.

The exiles marched forward for more than an hour in the face of strong winds and calf-deep snow, but only covered two miles.

By noon, all the exiles were so tired that their faces turned pale and their eyes were dull.

Li Feihu had no choice but to find a small forest sheltered from the wind for everyone to take a rest.

These officials who escort the exile team are also evaluated. If there are too many casualties on this trip, they will be reprimanded by the government.

Seeing that the weather in Southern Qi was very strange, and that it would get even colder the further north they went, Li Feihu and his men even applied to the court for additional subsidies.

Now, not only can the exiles get a black-faced steamed bun for free at every meal, but each person can also get a piece of pickled vegetable and a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold.

These prisoners were already starving, and pickled vegetable and ginger soup was a delicacy to them.

Everyone received their food, and Xiaoxiao started eating without saying a word.

Sheng Dehai, who was sitting alone under a big tree, looked downcast and lifeless, as if he had lost all his life.

Being sentenced to exile was hard for him both mentally and physically to bear.

But the eldest wife of the Sheng family was so powerful that every time he thought he could take revenge successfully, she would give him a heavy blow.

After a series of failures, he felt exhausted both physically and mentally, and even his hope of living was extinguished bit by bit.

However, at this moment, he suddenly saw a very familiar signal on a big tree not far away!

Sheng Dehai's eyes suddenly lit up, and his lost fighting spirit was instantly rekindled!

He used the excuse of going to the bathroom, informed the officer, and then walked carefully to the location indicated by the secret signal.

Sure enough, as soon as he stood still, a man in black floated down:

"To make a long story short, the Prime Minister has something important to tell you..."
