Crossing the Sword

Ling Fei was stunned for a moment, then said with relief: "Are you talking about the smell of stinky tofu? It's a woman, and a woman who likes to eat stinky tofu. Do you know who it is?"

Ye Shisan shook his head and said, "If it weren't for her liking to eat stinky tofu, I still couldn't figure out who this woman was. But now I can be sure that one of us must know this woman. I think this person should be me, or you know her too. Because the scent on this flying knife makes me feel familiar, the other party should have made the letter smell like stinky tofu in order to cover up the scent."

Ling Fei laughed and said, "Is this what you are talking about? You know, there are only a few popular spices nowadays. Even if you know what the spice is, you can't be sure who it is."

Ye Shisan put away the letter and said with a smile: "This is too simple. Every woman has some special smell. The same fragrance will emit subtle differences after being used by different women. Such differences are very small, and it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them. However, masters like you and me who have reached a certain level of cultivation have five senses far superior to ordinary people. As long as you distinguish carefully, it is not difficult to distinguish them." Finding that Ling Fei's eyes were looking at him more and more strangely, Ye Shisan hurriedly said: "Don't look at me like that. This is a method I got from a flower thief before. It is definitely not developed by myself. I am not that BT."

Ling Fei immediately asked, "What happened to that flower-stealing thief?"

Ye Shisan helplessly said, "He's dead. I took the money and wanted to kill him. Before he died, he wanted to know who wanted to kill him. After I showed him the letter of authorization, he recognized who it was right away. Out of curiosity, I asked him the reason and came to this conclusion. Later, I abolished his martial arts and sent him to the government office. Later, I heard that he was beaten to death by his cellmates."

"You used to be a killer?" Ling Fei felt dizzy now. Ye Shisan in front of him was becoming more and more mysterious. Now he began to doubt whether it was the right choice to make friends with him. Of course, this thought was just a flash, and he was not an undecided person.

Ye Shisan also guessed his thoughts, so he patiently explained: "Perhaps you can say that. When I was in my hometown, although the killer profession was not public, there was a certain organization. Anyone who applied for a quota could take on a killer mission at will. This is somewhat similar to the current mission agency. I often go there to take a look. Some people just want to kill. If I can get the money, wouldn't it be killing two birds with one stone?"

Ling Fei gave a helpless bitter smile. He could never understand Ye Shisan's hometown.

Ye Shisan continued, "Actually, this is just to get rid of the evil and make a little money. My real big income in the past was dueling. When there were many disputes between the black and white worlds that could not be settled, they would choose to use duels to solve the problems. And I usually look at which side pays the most, and then I will help that side to participate in the duel. These forces are the real big customers, and they are very generous."

Speaking of duels, Ling Fei immediately interrupted and said, "Come to think of it, you have a duel tomorrow. Eat quickly, and go back to rest right after you finish eating. Today's investigation ends here."

At this time, in the palace of the Black Emperor in Heidu, a big man with a red face and red beard saluted the Black Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I have already checked Ye Shisan's background. Not only is he highly regarded by the Yan Emperor, but the Earth Mang he took out at the Ridoujin Casino should also be real. He was hunted down by the Chihuo Cult for investigating the Chihuo Cult, and Xiangliu, the chief of the Shoushe Clan, once stood up for him. In addition, he went north this time to meet Gonggong at Gonggong Terrace. I think his relationship with Gonggong must be unusual."

When the Black Emperor Zhuanxu heard the name of Gonggong, a strong murderous aura immediately appeared on his gloomy face. He nodded and asked, "Zhu Yin, are you sure he really wants to go north to Gonggong Terrace?"

Zhu Yin answered affirmatively: "He said this himself, so it shouldn't be wrong. Your Majesty, do you want me to..." As he spoke, he made a palm-knife shape with his right hand and gestured in front of his chest.

The Black Emperor shook his head and said, "No need for now. Now that the Ridoujin incident happened, 136 people have been killed. I don't think he can find out anything within ten days. Then I can justifiably kill him. Even if he does find out, I can make things difficult for him. If that doesn't work, it won't be too late for you to take action."

Not knowing how the Black Emperor Zhuanxu was planning to kill him, Ye Shisan lay on the bed, repeatedly thinking about the suspicious points of the murder. Who was the person who wrote the letter? What did the half word left by Xumi mean? To kill more than a hundred people silently, the murderer must be a master, at least not weaker than Susano. And what was the poison? Knowing this might help the case.

Thinking of this, he immediately thought of Emperor Yan's "Shennong Herbal Classic". This rare book was not touched at the beginning because he knew too few characters and could not understand it. You know, in medical books, there are usually many rare characters in the names of medicines, which are naturally much more difficult to understand than other books.

"How could I have forgotten it?" Ye Shisan slapped his forehead, immediately stood up, lit a candle, and began to look up the "Shennong Herbal Classic"...

The next morning, in the Black Emperor's palace, preparations for the duel were complete. Ye Shisan and Susano were waving at each other, their eyes intertwined, and there was almost a flash of lightning. Ye Shisan smiled coldly and said, "Susano, I didn't expect you to use such a method. In order to frame me, you even killed your own son. Now, apart from admiration, I really don't know what to say. Admiration!"

Susano snorted coldly, "You killed someone and you still want to argue, and now you want to frame me. Your behavior doesn't seem to be what a gentleman does." After a pause, he asked, "But I still don't understand how I have offended you. You actually proposed a life-and-death duel with me. Don't tell me it's because of my sarcasm or Shui Wubian's matter, I won't believe it."

Ye Shisan sneered, "It's been more than a hundred years. Do you still remember that there was a white rabbit spirit whose name was Xiaobai?"

Susano finally understood Ye Shisan's reason, and his face was uncertain. He had always wanted to kill Xiaobai to silence her, but later he found that he could not find any trace of her. Thinking that Xiaobai's golden elixir had been taken away, she could no longer pose a threat to him, so he did not pursue her further. But justice is cyclical, and retribution is inevitable. Today, retribution has finally come!
