Chapter 252: People who died of poisoning



"Hongzhou, how can Chi Wanjun tell at a glance that you are a military man? Could it be that he just occasionally sees our soldiers passing by, and can tell at a glance whether a person has been a soldier? Why can't I tell it?" Mu Qingli asked puzzledly.

Mu Qingli walked on the forest path full of mountain flowers, bent down to pick up a fallen green leaf, and turned it around in her hand, as if it were a leisurely and free painting.

Fu Hongzhou looked at Mu Qingli with gentle eyes and raised his lips to smile. He felt that his decision to come out with A Li this time was right. He had never experienced such peace and beauty in his previous and next two lives.

"I also find it a bit strange. After coming here, I deliberately restrained my edge and became less straightforward. There are no more obvious flaws, right? How can he see it at a glance?" Fu Hongzhou was also confused and asked in surprise.

"Even I, who spend every day with you, feel that your true colors have been revealed! How did he see that?" Mu Qingli said, looking sideways at Fu Hongzhou.

Fu Hongzhou looks like a mature boy, and he doesn't look like the kind of person who can be seen through at a glance!

The two were confused and had doubts about Chi Wanjun, and they also paid more attention to him.

"Hey? Hongzhou, do you think this Chi Wanjun is also a fake?" Mu Qingli suddenly asked whimsically.

Fu Hongzhou glanced at Mu Qingli and frowned: "How can there be so many fakes? If he is a fake, how can the Chi family not recognize him? Unless the entire Chi family is controlled by someone!"

"That's also possible!" Mu Qingli pondered.

"Have you read too many detective novels?"

"Don't you find it strange? I think Chi Wanjun is a little too knowledgeable, like he's seen the world. Didn't Longxu say that the people of Chiyun Village don't usually interact with outsiders?"

"This place is indeed a bit closed off. They don't deal with outsiders, but they just don't take the initiative to provoke outsiders. If outsiders come, although they don't welcome them, they won't be too aggressive. At most, they will just ignore them coldly, right?"

"Oh! Who knows? Just pay more attention to Chi Wanjun, so that we don't always overlook something. I will keep an eye on Chi Wanjun and see what's going on with him. All suspicious people would rather be killed by mistake than let them go!" Mu Qingli said with great ambition, showing the momentum to carry out the detective career to the end.

"Okay! Keep an eye on them all. Keep an eye on everyone you meet in Yun Province from now on. If you find another little mouse hiding very deeply, we'll catch it!" Fu Hongzhou agreed with a smile, looking like he supported him very much.

"Hongzhou, look, there are bamboo shoots there too. We didn't dig many last time in Longxu's village. No one is following us this time, so let's get more back!" Mu Qingli said, pointing to the thick and strong bamboo shoots growing under a bamboo.

"Well, take out your sickle! I remember seeing the people in Daga Village using sickles to cut bamboo shoots. If they used a knife like you, you wouldn't have to do anything all day!"

"Go to hell, what do you mean I don't have to do anything all day? My little dagger is so sharp that it can cut through hair. It's much faster than a sickle. If it wasn't inconvenient, I would even want to use a machete!" Mu Qingli muttered unconvinced.

"Imagine yourself carrying a machete and slashing bamboo shoots all over the mountains. I'm afraid you might get so anxious that you even cut your own feet!"

"Tsk, I can't bear to chop off my own feet even if I chop off yours!"

"Heartless!"

......

The two of them were busy chopping bamboo shoots while carrying them, not feeling tired at all. Three or five of these big bamboo shoots could fill a backpack, and Mu Qingli just threw them into the space.

The two of them went deeper and deeper, not knowing how far they had walked. The bamboo shoots piled up into a small hill in the space.

"Ali, after the reform and opening up, we can make a fortune by selling bamboo shoots in the north!" Fu Hongzhou said with a smile, his hands still working.

"Fresh bamboo shoots are really expensive in the north! What we usually buy are not fresh, they are all processed! It's not easy to eat fresh bamboo shoots, so we have to collect more. The wild products from the deep mountains and old forests here will be priceless treasures in the future!" Mu Qingli said with a smile.

Whether it was mushrooms or bamboo shoots, Mu Qingli would not let them go and would sweep up whatever she could.

"Be careful of poisonous mushrooms!" Fu Hongzhou said suddenly when he saw Mu Qingli digging bamboo shoots and then changing to picking mushrooms.

"...Am I such an unreliable person?" Mu Qingli muttered.

"Locals often pick the wrong mushrooms, let alone you, an outsider who only knows a few types of mushrooms?"

“I only pick the kinds of mushrooms I know!”

"......Okay!" Fu Hongzhou couldn't help but secretly admire his girl's persistence.

"Hongzhou!" Mu Qingli suddenly stopped picking mushrooms, pointed at the corner of clothes sticking out from the grass not far ahead, and called out Fu Hongzhou.

Fu Hongzhou held the freshly cut bamboo shoots in one hand and a sickle in the other. He stood up and looked at Mu Qingli.

Mu Qingli stood there, holding a handful of mushrooms in one hand, pointing forward with the other hand, his eyes fixed on that place. Instinctively, Mu Qingli felt that there was someone there.

Fu Hongzhou looked in the direction Mu Qingli's finger pointed, and saw a person's clothes faintly visible in the grass, as if a person was hiding in the grass.

"I'll go and take a look!" Fu Hongzhou put the bamboo shoots on the ground, holding a sickle in his hand, and slowly approached.

"Who's there?" Fu Hongzhou asked coldly as he approached there.

Mu Qingli also used her mental power to investigate, but did not sense any signs of life, so she felt something was wrong.

"Hong Zhou, he's probably not a living person!"
