Tie Niu didn't understand what Chu Yunxi meant and opened his eyes wide. Chu Yunxi said, "There is also calming incense. If you have any extra at home, send some to Aunt Li."

Although Tie Niu didn't know what it meant, he had witnessed with his own eyes how Chu Yunxi solved the murder case in Bodhi Temple, so he believed in her without a doubt. He immediately packed a basket of dragon scale vegetables and took a small bundle of calming incense and went to the next door.

Chu Yunxi stood at the door and heard Tie Niu say, "Aunt Li, I went to Dahuai Mountain today to pick some dragon scale vegetables for the genius doctor to taste. I picked a lot, so I brought you a basket."

A slightly older voice said, "Tie Niu is too polite. Aunt Li would like to thank you very much."

Tie Niu said, "There is also this, which is the calming incense I bought for my mother. My mother said that she slept very well after using it. I also gave you some, you can try it. People of your age, sleeping well is good for your health."

This time, after a while, Aunt Li laughed and said, "Why are you so polite today? This incense is expensive. Let your mother use it. I have always slept well."

Tie Niu was determined to give it away and said, "My mother has more. Aunt Li, you take it. I'll go back first." After saying that, he stuffed the calming incense into Aunt Li's arms and came back.

Chu Yunxi stood at the door and listened. It was a long time before she heard the sound of her closing the door.

Tie Niu stood beside Chu Yunxi and asked in confusion: "Sister Chu, what's going on? Could it be that my mother's poison is really related to Aunt Li?"

"We'll know soon whether it matters or not." Chu Yunxi glanced at Bai Yu, who turned around and climbed up the tree in tacit understanding.

After noon, Chu Yunxi took Tie Niu's mother's pulse and found that the toxin had eased a little. Tie Niu's mother also said that she felt a little stronger in her body. It seemed that the detoxification pill was still effective, so Chu Yunxi asked her to take another one.

In the evening, Bai Yu came back and said that Aunt Li's son Dali carried the dragon scale vegetables out of the village and threw the vegetables far away.

Chu Yunxi curled her lips and smiled, "Sure enough, they and their son are the murderers."

Tie Niu and his mother were both shocked. Tie Niu asked in confusion, "How could it be them? We have been neighbors for decades. Although we have had occasional quarrels, we don't have any deep hatred."

Chu Yunxi sneered and said, "People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. Who knows when the sheep around you will suddenly turn into a man-eating wolf?"

The two still found it hard to believe, so Chu Yunxi asked Tie Niu to fry the remaining dragon scale vegetables. When Bai Yu sent a signal, Chu Yunxi, Tie Niu and Xiao Huan took the dragon scale vegetables and knocked on Aunt Li's door again.

Aunt Li opened the door and saw Tie Niu again. The smile on her face was a little stiff. She asked, "Tie Niu, it's so late. What's the matter with you coming to Aunt Li's house? Xiao Huan is here too."

Tie Niu didn't know what to say, so he looked at Chu Yunxi. Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "You are Aunt Li, right? I'm the doctor who treats Tie Niu's mother. I heard from her that she has been your neighbor for decades. I treated her and she heard that you often have headaches and fevers, so she asked me to come and see you."

Tie Niu said hurriedly, "Yes, Aunt Li, this Sister Chu is a very good doctor. I remember you were not feeling well a few days ago."

Just as Aunt Li was about to refuse, Chu Yunxi had already stepped in and went straight into Aunt Li's room. Sure enough, she had already lit calming incense and was preparing to rest.

Aunt Li saw Chu Yunxi enter the house and quickly followed her in, saying, "Miss, thank you for your kindness, but we should come during the day to see the doctor. It's so late now..."

As she was talking, she saw Tie Niu actually carrying a bowl of dragon scale vegetables and placing it on her table. Her expression changed involuntarily and she said, "Tie Niu, what are you doing?"

At this time, a man's voice came from outside the door, "Mom, it's so late, who is here...Xiao Huan?"

A tall and strong man appeared at the door. It must be Aunt Li's son Dali. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xiaohuan and was immediately surprised. But then he saw Tieniu and his face changed. He asked, "Tieniu, why are you here?"

Tie Niu pointed at the dragon scale vegetable on the table and said, "My mother asked Sister Chu to come over to check your mother's pulse and asked me to bring you some more dragon scale vegetables."

When Dali saw the dragon scale vegetable, his nose twitched again, and he suddenly covered his nose with his hand and said, "We don't want it, take it away, take it away quickly."

Chu Yunxi sneered, picked up the dragon scale vegetable on the table, and said to Aunt Li: "Aunt Li, I have studied this dragon scale vegetable today. Because it grows on the top of the mountain and absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon every day, it is very good for the health of some elderly people. For example, if you have a headache or a fever, you can get better as long as you eat it. Do you want to try it?"

Aunt Li couldn't help but cover her nose and said in a sharp voice: "I won't eat. What kind of doctor are you? I think you are a liar. Go away quickly. You are not welcome in my house."

Chu Yunxi put down the bowl and snorted, "You don't dare to eat it? I heard from Tie Niu's mother that you gave her a basket of dragon scale vegetables half a month ago. Why don't you eat it now? Today, Tie Niu gave you dragon scale vegetables, but you asked your son to throw them away. Why is that?"

Bai Yu walked in at this time and threw a basket on the ground. Inside was the dragon scale vegetable that Dali threw out today.

When Aunt Li saw such a large basket of dragon scale vegetables placed there, she was so frightened that she almost fainted. She felt that it was difficult to breathe. She said with difficulty: "Quick...quickly take it away, it will be poisoned."

Dali hurriedly took the dragon scale vegetable and threw it out. Tie Niu's eyes were about to burst. He suddenly stepped forward, clenched his fists tightly, and asked in a trembling voice: "Aunt Li, how is the dragon scale vegetable poisonous?"

Aunt Li saw Tie Niu's eyes turn red, and Chu Yunxi was staring at her. There was also a man with a sword standing at the door. He looked like someone who was not easy to mess with. She knew she couldn't hide it anymore, so she stammered, "Dragon... Dragon scale vegetable is not poisonous, but when combined with... and tranquilizing incense, it is extremely poisonous."

"What did you say?" Tie Niu took a step back in shock, and Xiao Huan covered her mouth in disbelief.

"You really do know," Chu Yunxi said coldly, "So, you admit that you deliberately gave the dragon scale vegetable to Tie Niu's mother in order to poison her to death, right?"

Aunt Li hung her head and said nothing. Tie Niu grabbed her wrist and asked, "Why? How did my mother let you down?"

Seeing that Aunt Li couldn't break free from Tie Niu's grip, Dali suddenly strode over, stood in front of Aunt Li and said, "I did all this, if you want to arrest someone, arrest me."
