Chapter 198: Dead for a Long Time
"He shouldn't have been in this yard at that time." Zhan Beiyuan said very confidently that the other party must have come in from outside, otherwise they would definitely be able to sense the breath of other people.
"I think so too, and I even have a bold guess." Jiang Yunxi looked thoughtful.
"What guess?" Zhan Beiyuan walked towards her.
Jiang Yunxi looked up and looked at him, "Perhaps the Pei Heng and Pei Lie we see are actually the same person."
Zhan Beiyuan's expression was slightly tense. "How could that be? They are twin brothers. It's normal for them to look exactly the same."
"What if someone died a year ago?" Jiang Yunxi expressed her guess.
"You mean, Pei Heng died a year ago?" Zhan Beiyuan's face was full of surprise. He had never thought about it in this way.
Jiang Yunxi said solemnly, "That's very likely the case. Something definitely happened a year ago. It seems we need to investigate Pei Lie thoroughly."
"Then here..."
"No need to look for it. Ask Pei Heng about his birth date and time tomorrow, and that should reveal some problems." Jiang Yunxi said. Although they are twins, they must have been born very close to each other.
But this time their situation was different from that of the old lady and sisters of the Duke of Yong’s Mansion.
The last time the birth chart couldn’t reveal life and death, it was because the old lady’s soul was attached to my sister’s body, which was equivalent to one leaving the body and the other leaving the soul, so it showed death and then showed life.
Pei Lie and Pei Heng are different.
Pei Lie is a living person, and no one's soul is attached to his body.
…
Prince Han's Mansion.
In the yard.
Jiang Yunxi was calculating Pei Heng's birth date and horoscope, which Zhan Beiyuan had asked Old Master Pei for in the morning. He also took the opportunity when Zhan Luochen asked Pei Lie to go out and went to his study.
He took a painting from him.
But Pei Lie's paintings and the paintings in Pei Heng's yard were not created by the same person.
Jiang Yunxi quickly deduced Pei Heng's birth date and the result was the same as she expected. She looked at Zhan Beiyuan and said, "Pei Heng is dead."
"Let me calculate it." Taoist Qingxu took Pei Heng's birth date and figured it out quickly. "It seems this person has been dead for quite a while."
They slept in the palace yesterday.
When they heard Jiang Yunxi talk about the dozen female corpses in the capital this morning, they were furious. How could there be such a cruel murderer?
"It seems that your guess is correct. Can we find his body?" Zhan Beiyuan asked. Only after finding the body can they tell the Pei family the truth, otherwise the Pei family will not believe it.
Jiang Yunxi touched his chin. "Pei Heng suddenly stopped leaving the courtyard a year ago. He must have died a year ago. So much time has passed. If no special method had been used, his body should have disappeared long ago, but it's possible that it's still there."
"Come on, let's go find it and see who finds it first." Taoist Qingxu said with full fighting spirit.
"Master, don't bet anymore. It must be my junior sister who found it first." Miaoyin said, sticking out her tongue.
Taoist Qingxu glared at her and said dissatisfiedly, "What are you talking about?"
Miaoyin said with a grin, "To be honest, you've never defeated Junior Sister before, Momo Mianmian, don't you agree?"
Mian Mian smiled and said, "Master, you'd better not gamble. You might lose everything."
Mo Mo said seriously, "Master, you really do lose every time."
"Master, this isn't good. What's that saying? You're both a bad gambler." Qingyang said with a harmless smile.
Taoist Qingxu: "..."
Jiang Yunxi coughed, "You guys are such a jerk. Master always loses to me on purpose. Do you understand?"
Taoist Qingxu's mouth twitched slightly, "Disciple, you really know how to comfort people!"
…
Pei family.
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan came together. They couldn't find the location of the body based on the birth date alone. They needed something that Pei Heng used frequently, which would be contaminated with his scent.
With those items, plus his birth date and time, and using a special formation, they can guide them to the approximate location of Pei Heng's body.
"Miss Jiang, what do you want to do with Pei Heng's things?" asked Old Master Pei in confusion.
"You must want to find Pei Heng and want to know how he is doing, right?" Jiang Yunxi had no intention of telling the people of the Pei family that Pei Heng was dead.
Wait until his body is found.
Old Master Pei nodded. "I was really worried when he suddenly ran away from home."
Jiang Yunxi smiled and said, "There are too many things in his yard, but we don't know which ones he used frequently. I need the things he used frequently, and then I can use Xuanmen magic to find his whereabouts."
"Okay, I'll take you to get it." Old Master Pei stood up and said.
The three of them walked towards Pei Heng's yard together.
Old Master Pei pushed the door open and walked in. The courtyard was still the same as before. He slowly walked towards the house. "The things here are all what he used before, but the one he used most was that sword. I wonder if he took it with him."
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan looked at each other. They had come here several times but had not seen the sword.
"There seems to be no sword here." Jiang Yunxi said.
"That means he took it away. The books over there include those he has read since he was a child. He touched them many times, so they should be contaminated with his scent." Old Master Pei pointed to the bookshelf against the wall not far away.
"Is there anything he used to wear?" Jiang Yunxi asked. The best ones are those worn close to the body for many years, as that kind of thing will retain Pei Heng's aura.
Old Master Pei thought for a moment, then walked towards the desk. He opened a drawer and took out a small box. "He wore this since he was a child, but he stopped wearing it when he grew up."
"He must have taken the other ones he usually wore with him."
Jiang Yunxi walked forward. There were quite a few things in the box, all made of jade. "I'll take them all. When I find Pei Heng's whereabouts, I'll return them and give him a few more clothes for me."
If Pei Heng was impersonated by Pei Lie this year, then Pei Lie should not have worn the clothes in the closet.
Old Master Pei walked to the wardrobe and picked out a few clothes that Pei Heng used to like to wear.
After getting the things.
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan returned to Prince Han's Mansion.
After dark in the evening.
Jiang Yunxi just started to prepare to find Pei Heng's body. She put all of Pei Heng's belongings together.
Taoist Qingxu placed a talisman next to the item and wrote Pei Heng's birth date on it.
After putting things in place.
Jiang Yunxi took out a golden paintbrush and drew a formation on the ground. As she urged it, the formation burst out with a golden light, and a faint aura emanated from Pei Heng's belongings.
A moment later.
The talisman in the formation flew up.
"Okay, we can find Pei Heng's body by following the talisman." Jiang Yunxi's eyes were filled with joy, as it seemed that Pei Heng's body was still there.
"Let's go, let's go now." Taoist Qingxu couldn't wait to find out what was going on.
Jiang Yunxi also wanted to know what was going on, so they went there together. Mo Mo Mianmian was in the palace, and there was Wuming and the secret guards arranged by Zhan Beiyuan.
And that Chaos.
Ever since it came to the palace yesterday, it has been staying here and has refused to leave.
