Chapter 467: The Gravekeeper is Dead



Chapter 467: The Gravekeeper is Dead

Sui Sui got angry: "You are the pig, your whole family are pigs."

"I'm a dragon. I'm a cute dragon. I have horns. Do you see my dragon horns?"

Sui Sui pointed at his dragon horns and said, "Open your eyes and see, I am a dragon, not a pig."

Cui Yi: ...

Is there any difference?

Whether it's a dragon or a pig, they shouldn't speak, right?

Xie Yingmian said, "Sui Sui is the new puppet dragon made by the Yan family."

Cui Yi's eyes lit up.

The mechanical engineering of the Yan family is comparable to that of the Gongshu family.

Compared with the Gongshu family, the reclusive Yan family is more adept at various tricks.

Cui Yi pinched Sui Sui's chubby face and pulled it left and right: "As expected of the Yan family, the puppet dragon they made feels great, and it can even speak human language. It's really amazing."

He asked Xie Yingmian: "Junior Sister, can you give me some help? I want a puppet cat."

"I'm allergic to cat hair and can't keep one, but I like it anyway. If I could own a puppet cat, I'd die without regrets. The price is negotiable."

Xie Yingmian said, "I'm afraid not."

"Sui Sui is the last work of the Yan Clan's most skilled puppet master. After the master's passing, no one in the Yan Clan could achieve this level of skill."

Cui Yi felt a little regretful.

He couldn't have his own puppet cat, so he tried to move Sui Sui's face.

Sui Sui was a little annoyed by Cui Yi's pulling him around.

It couldn't break free from Cui Yi's grip, and angrily released a burst of electric current.

Cui Yi felt his hand go numb and he immediately let go.

Sui Sui finally gained her freedom and ran behind Xie Yingmian, gritting her teeth at Cui Yi: "Meibao, this old man is so mean! He pinched my face and took advantage of me!"

Xie Yingmian gently stroked Suisui's head.

"Sui Sui, let me introduce you. This is my senior brother, Cui Yi."

"Brother, let me introduce you. This is Sui Sui, my...brother."

Suisui was pleased by the word "brother".

It put away its ferocious look, its small dragon horns turned red, and it embarrassedly covered its face with its two chubby paws: "Yes, that's right, I am Meibao's brother."

Cui Yi is an interesting and non-pooper.

Hearing Xie Yingmian say this, he waved to Sui Sui and said, "So it's Brother Sui Sui."

"I apologize for any offense I caused you earlier. I'm Cui Yi, your junior sister's senior brother. You're her elder brother, and I'm her senior brother. We share a little sister, so we're a family."

"When you have time, you can come and play with me. I am familiar with Shangjing and can take you to taste all kinds of Shangjing delicacies."

Suisui's eyes lit up.

It was planning to find an opportunity to go shopping and eat.

Meibao and her brother-in-law are very busy, and it feels embarrassed to bother them.

Coincidentally, Cui Yi took the initiative to mention it.

"Do you have money?" Sui Sui asked.

Cui Yi: "It's OK. I can't buy all the shops in Shangjing City, but I can buy most of them."

Sui Sui's eyes sparkled: "A rich man."

"Meibao, your senior brother is pretty good."

Cui Yi also praised: "Little Junior Sister, you are not a bad brother."

Sui Sui and Cui Yi smiled at each other.

The two of them quickly went from disliking each other to being close friends, and they even agreed on when to go shopping and eating.

Cui Yi went to treat Tianjia's wound.

Sui Sui goes with Xie Yingmian to make the antidote.

Xie Yingmian: "Can you change your form?"

Sui Sui tilted his head and said, "Sister, don't you like my cute dragon look?"

Xie Yingmian: "That's not the case."

"It's better to be in Danyue Court. We are all family here, and your affairs will not be heard by the emperor."

"If you go out to eat with my brother, there will be many people around. The emperor will notice your presence, and our hypnotism to the emperor may be exposed."

Sui Sui said, "So that's what you're worried about."

"Don't worry, I have plenty of patterns."

"Didn't Old Man Cui say he liked cats? When I go out with him, I'll turn into a cat. Anyway, the Dog Emperor won't find out."

Xie Yingmian believes in Sui Sui.

By the time she prepared the antidote, Cui Yi had also treated Tianjia's injuries.

After Tianjia was given the antidote, he slowly woke up.

After seeing Yu Lingye and Xie Yingmian, Tianjia stood up and saluted.

"Don't move." Cui Yi pressed Tianjia back. "I just treated the various injuries on your body from animal bites and scratches. If you move, the wounds will split open."

Yu Lingye said, "Listen to Doctor Cui."

Tianjia then lay back down again.

"When I found the gravekeeper, he was already dead." Tianjia felt ashamed. "I failed to do my job well. Please punish me, Your Highness."

Yu Lingye was not surprised by this result: "Is the body hidden?"

Tianjia: "It's hidden."

Yu Lingye asked, "What happened while tracking down the gravekeeper? How did you become like this?"

Tianjia felt even more ashamed: "I was fooled by those weasels."

"The wounds on my body were caused by various beasts summoned by the weasel. The poison I used was also inflicted by the weasel. They are very cunning and very clever."

As the secret guard of His Royal Highness Prince Ling, he is top-notch in every aspect.

After meeting that group of weasels, he began to question his life.

Tianjia briefly recounted what had happened over the past three days.

Sui Sui's eyes widened. "Poisoned you, led you into a trap, summoned other beasts to deal with you, and even created a maze? This isn't a weasel, this is a weasel transformed into a spirit."

Xie Yingmian asked, "Where are the weasels?"

Tianjia said: "I killed him."

After a while.

Tianjia's voice was filled with deep apology: "The weasels and I have reached a point of no return. If they don't die, then I will die."

"I have failed to perform my duties properly. Please punish me, Your Majesty and Your Majesty."

Xie Yingmian: "No need to apologize, you did the right thing."

"Where is the body?"

Tianjia gave an address: "The body of the weasel and the body of the gravekeeper are in the same place."

"Princess, it's best not to go and see."

"Those weasels were extremely vicious. To ensure they were killed, my subordinates separated their bodies. The scene was extremely bloody."

Xie Yingmian had seen even bloodier scenes.

She is not afraid of this.

An hour later, Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye brought people to the place where Tianjia hid the corpse.

In summer, the weather is hot.

A faint stench was already emanating from the place where the bodies were hidden.

The guards quickly carried the body out.

Xie Yingmian took Sui Sui to check it out.

Sui Sui examined the gravekeeper's body and said, "There's no trace of my mother on this man, not even a little bit."

Xie Yingmian frowned: "No?"

Sui Sui: "Indeed not. I won't check it wrong."

"This gravekeeper was just an ordinary person. He probably didn't know any martial arts when he was alive. His cause of death was suicide by swallowing poison."

"It's a sure thing."

Corpses tend to rot easily in summer.

There was no trace of Shen Yu on the gravekeeper, so for safety reasons, Xie Yingmian prepared to burn the body.

The guards quickly built a pile of firewood.

The bodies of the gravekeeper and the weasel were piled together and covered with a thick layer of pine oil.

When the torch lit the firewood, Sui Sui's ears suddenly moved.

"Meibao, I found traces of my mother!"
