Qu Li did not speak.
She really couldn't say much about this matter.
No matter what, they have been a family for more than ten years.
Even though all the evidence pointed to Changsun Lingyue, Changsun Li still stopped Changsun Lingyue from hurting himself without hesitation.
If the Changsun clan really fell into chaos, it would be exactly what the high priest wanted.
Changsun Lingrui digested the frustration for a while before looking at Qu Li.
"Cousin, what should we do now?"
"Let me think about it first!"
After Qu Li asked everyone to leave, she asked Changsun Lingrui whether he had given Caiyue the pill she had given him before.
"Strangely enough, I used it on Caiyue that day, but Caiyue didn't tell the truth."
Qu Li frowned in confusion.
She had used it on Afeng before, and although Afeng resisted, he still told some truths.
Why doesn’t it work when it comes to Caiyue?
Caiyue's internal strength is not as good as Afeng's, and she is simply unable to withstand the effects of the pills.
"Cousin?" Changsun Lingrui saw that her eyes were wandering somewhere else, so he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
Just when Qu Li was about to regain her composure, she suddenly saw Feng Yi.
"I'm going to go over there and calm down and think about it. You go back and look after uncle first."
"good!"
Only after making sure that Changsun Lingrui had really left did Qu Li walk towards Feng Yi.
Feng Yi held her in his arms and kissed her forehead.
"I'm so tired! I don't know when I can finish everything here."
Feng Yi's deep voice rang out from above her head: "If you don't want to care about it anymore, let's leave here."
Qu Li raised her head from his arms and looked at his smooth chin.
"But you know I won't leave."
Otherwise, she would not have followed the high priest to Xiling.
"What do you think about this?"
"I think it was Caiyue who did it! But Caiyue's internal strength and concentration aren't as good as Afeng's. How could she have withstood my pill that can make people tell the truth?"
"Remember that really cute bug you showed me earlier?"
All the things that Qu Li had been unable to figure out in his mind seemed to be unlocked by a key, and everything became clear in an instant.
"You mean, Caiyue also has a sub-gu in her body? Moreover, this sub-gu can help her eliminate those poisons and other things."
Feng Yi took her and jumped onto a tree not far away, letting her rest her head on his shoulder. "Afeng and Magu are both very loyal subordinates of the high priest. Afeng may not tell him anything at first, but he will definitely tell him later."
"The high priest is good at poisoning insects. Since he wants to use Caiyue, he will definitely try his best to eliminate the possibility of being tricked!" Qu Li added.
Feng Yi leaned over and rubbed her nose.
"clever!"
Qu Li curled her lips and poked his forehead with her finger: "I know what's going on! Then tell me, will the mother Gu in the high priest's body also help dilute the poison?"
"I guess not!"
After he and Qu Li burned down the Black Water Forest, he secretly went to investigate again without Qu Li's knowledge.
The defense was tighter than before. That night, he saw someone carrying out several medicine men and preparing to throw them to Huangpo Ridge. He went forward to check and found that one of the medicine men was still breathing, so he took him back.
According to him, the mother Gu can devour the child Gu and cannot tolerate another mother Gu.
These days, he has been wanting to talk to Qu Li about this, but has never found an opportunity.
This time, Changsun Wuji suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, and Qu Li's mind was all on Changsun Wuji, so he didn't know whether he should tell her.
"How do you know?"
Qu Li withdrew from his arms, held his face, and stared into his eyes without blinking.
"Don't try to fool me!" Qu Li said with a stern face, "I'm not a fool! Tell me quickly, or I'll be angry!"
"Well, it's like this..."
Feng Yi briefly told her what had happened, and Qu Li frowned.
"Were they so careless in handling the bodies?"
Feng Yi: “…”
He suddenly didn't know what to say.
Shouldn't her focus be on the medicine man?
How did it suddenly fall on the corpse?
Qu Li held his chin with one hand. "If the corpses are not handled properly, it will easily pollute the nearby soil and water! What's more, these discarded corpses are medicine men."
The medical books she had read before clearly stated that medicine men basically carried extremely poisonous substances, but the high priest actually casually ordered the bodies of the medicine men to be thrown onto the barren slope.
This is so wrong!
"What do you want to do? Or, what are you doubting?"
"I want to go to Huangpo Ridge to take a look."
The high priest has always been treacherous and cunning.
If he deliberately took advantage of Feng Yi's trick and let him "pick up" a medicine man, it would be a very dangerous thing.
Feng Yi seemed to feel that everything he discovered was too coincidental, so he agreed without thinking.
"But in Zhangsun Wuji's current situation, would it be inappropriate for you to leave?"
"Now is the time!"
Based on the high priest's understanding of her, Changsun Wuji is in such a dangerous situation now that she definitely cannot leave easily.
At this time, if she followed Feng Yi to the Black Water Forest again, she would definitely discover something.
If the medicine man really did it on purpose, then if they went there now, they would definitely not be able to see the bodies of those medicine men.
"I'm worried that the high priest's men will suddenly interfere. You stay here, I'll go take a look."
Feng Yi naturally couldn't agree.
"You know, I finally found my family. They are very important to me." Seeing Feng Yi's expression was still solemn, she leaned in and gently kissed his chin: "And, you know, I'm particularly good at hiding!"
Feng Yi's eyes darkened.
Qu Li has a secret and often appears and disappears mysteriously.
If she went alone, she might really be less conspicuous than if the two of them went together.
But he was still worried.
After all, he had already placed her completely in his heart and couldn't bear to see her take risks.
Qu Li held his hand and shook it gently: "You are here, you can also help me secretly keep an eye on those who come to make trouble!"
Caiyue simply didn't believe that she could have put the saffron juice into Changsun Wuji's medicine without anyone knowing.
"Okay!" Feng Yi was reluctant to let her go. Although he agreed verbally, he held her hand tightly and did not let go.
"What are you doing?"
Qu Li stared at his bony hands and couldn't help laughing.
Feng Yi had no choice but to let go of her hand, gave her some more instructions, and watched her disappear into the night.
Qu Li entered the space and quickly flew towards the Black Water Forest.
The guards in Black Water Forest are indeed stricter than before, and it feels even more eerie and terrifying.
