Chapter 126 Su Yue's Scheme (Part 2)
Afterwards, under Su Yue's gaze, everyone in the kitchen soaked their hands in warm water, and sure enough, none of the basins of water turned black.
Su Yue sneered secretly. From the beginning to the end, she was just setting up a trap. When the arsenic and silver powder were mixed, the water would turn black.
It's entirely because the silver powder has turned black. The silver powder is fine and when dispersed in water, it looks like the water has turned black.
The amount of arsenic remaining on his hands was too small, and so much time had passed, so naturally there was no reaction at all.
She just grasped the common sense that everyone knew, and broke down the psychological defenses of the person who poisoned the person step by step.
After all, no matter whether the person who poisoned the food has medical skills or not, everyone knows that the poison can be tested with a silver needle. Su Yue started by using this correct principle to guide the person who poisoned the food little by little.
It has to be said that Su Yue's move, which was half true and half false, was really bewitching.
In fact, there were only ordinary spiders in the glass bottle, which were attracted by the powder she made just an hour ago.
The notes given by the master mentioned not only the preparation of powder to attract poisonous scorpions, but also other insects.
So, after attracting the spiders, she asked Ruofeng to catch a dozen of the largest ones and put them in a glass bottle.
The basin of warm water in front of everyone had already been filled with powder to attract spiders. So what drove the spiders crazy was not the smell of the black water mixed with arsenic and silver powder, but the smell of the powder.
What she said at the beginning, that silver powder would turn black when it came into contact with arsenic, was indeed true, but the rest of it was all made up by her. Black water does not have any special smell that can attract spiders.
The smell that attracts spiders is a powder made by myself.
As everyone lined up and stretched out their hands to place them above the glass bottle, the spiders showed no reaction and moved closer and closer to the man, who became more and more panicked.
Although I didn't poison him this time, it hasn't even been a month since the last time I poisoned him.
When no one was paying attention, he covered his face and pretended to sneeze, then quickly smelled his hands, but could not smell anything.
However, Su Yue also said that ordinary people cannot smell this smell, but spiders are very sensitive to the smell.
What should I do? What should I do? The man saw that there were only two people in front of him. He was so anxious that sweat began to appear on his forehead and his eyes began to look around.
From the very beginning, Su Yue focused her attention on observing the changes in expressions of everyone in the kitchen. As a spider, she could not catch the person who poisoned the food, so she had to rely on her own observation to find out the most panicked person.
Soon, the man with a wandering look attracted Su Yue's attention. The man looked to be in his early thirties, with a beard and wearing a hat.
Unlike the others who calmly raised their hands above the glass bottle, this person was so nervous that sweat began to appear on his forehead. The closer he got to the candlelight, the more eye-catching those tiny beads of sweat became under the light.
"Ruofeng." Su Yue called softly. Ruofeng next to her naturally noticed that person. Now, the outside of the yard was full of guards, and not even a fly could fly out.
Finally, it was the middle-aged man's turn. The man's hands were shaking and he was reluctant to put them on the glass bottle.
When Butler Huang saw this scene, his face darkened. Could it be that this bearded man who usually made firewood had poisoned him?
This bearded man is usually taciturn and doesn't communicate much with others. His presence in the kitchen is very low and people only think of him when fire is needed.
"Ruofeng!" Su Yue saw that this man hesitated for a long time, so his eyes darkened and he called Ruofeng.
Ruofeng was already ready to take action at any time. At Su Yue's order, Ruofeng drew his sword and rushed towards the bearded man like the wind.
There was a "bang" sound, which was the sound of weapons colliding. The bearded man actually had a soft sword wrapped around his waist.
"Everyone outside, come in and catch the assassin!"
Seeing that the man also knew martial arts, Su Yue shouted orders. The people outside, hearing Su Yue's shouts, rushed in one by one and surrounded the bearded man.
At this time, the fight between Big Beard and Ruofeng was very close, and Ruofeng even seemed to be losing.
"Humph, Miss Su is quite clever, but I, Hu, will not accompany you."
The bearded man couldn't figure out that all this was just Su Yue's plan.
Seeing that he was surrounded by guards, he was not panicked anymore. Anyway, he had a way to save his life and escape. It was just a pity that he had put in a lot of effort to sneak into the Third Prince's Mansion, but now all his efforts were wasted.
When Su Yue heard the middle-aged man say this, she secretly thought that it was not good, as it was obvious that this man was confident that he could escape.
At this moment, Su Yue caught a glimpse of the glass bottle next to him and an idea came to his mind.
"Ruofeng!" Su Yue grabbed the bottle, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the two people who were fighting.
When Ruofeng saw Su Yue coming over with the glass bottle, he naturally knew what she was planning.
The man naturally knew Su Yue's plan, but he didn't believe that Su Yue would really throw a poisonous spider at him. After all, Ruofeng was very close to him, and if she threw the spider, Ruofeng would have a hard time escaping.
Just when the man was convinced that Su Yue would not throw it, Su Yue seized the opportunity and threw it with all his strength, and the entire glass bottle flew towards Ruofeng and the others.
With a "pop" sound, in front of the man's astonished gaze, Ruofeng directly smashed the glass bottle with his sword. In an instant, more than a dozen big spiders scattered over the man and Ruofeng's heads.
The man's eyes widened in shock, he could never have imagined that Ruofeng would take the initiative to smash the bottle. Did he want to die?
Just as the man was frantically dodging the spider, Ruofeng found the man's weakness and stabbed him directly with a sword. The man was not careful and was hit in the thigh.
"This spider is not poisonous?!" The man saw several spiders crawling on Ruofeng's body, but he didn't react. It was no wonder he guessed it.
"You're not stupid. Besides spiders being non-toxic, I made this silver powder water to trick you."
Seeing the man stabbed by the sword, Su Yue shouted loudly to attract his attention. What she had to do now was to delay time.
Because she had applied cartilage powder on Ruofeng's sword before.
"You!" The man was stunned, and realized that he was being fooled, so he wanted to rush towards Su Yue in anger.
But fortunately, after Su Yue threw the glass bottle, she ran to the place where there were the most guards, so the man couldn't get close to Su Yue at all.
"A mere sword wound can't stop me." The man was now surrounded by guards, and with the pain in his thigh unbearable, he was about to reach into his arms and prepare to slip away.
"Of course sword wounds can't stop you, but poison can." Su Yue noticed that the man's movements were wrong, so she signaled Ruofeng.
"You! You are so despicable!" When the man heard what Su Yue said, he suddenly felt his limbs gradually becoming numb and weak. In the end, he couldn't even hold the soft sword and it fell to the ground.
"I was careless this time, but don't even think about getting a single word out of me!" The man said, and his mouth began to move abnormally.
"Oh no! Ruofeng, kick him unconscious!" Su Yue exclaimed. Ruofeng heard it and kicked him immediately. The man felt his head go dark and fainted with a weird expression on his face.
And just when he fainted, he saw the third prince walking out of the room safely.
"Sure enough." Su Yue saw the man fainted, then walked forward, pried open his mouth, and suddenly saw a very thin cotton thread stuck in his teeth.
Without even looking at the other end of the cotton thread, Su Yue knew that it was poison.
