Chapter 20 The Serpent Lie Detector 2
Seeing everyone's confusion, Mo Liuyun picked up the small golden snake that was about to escape and said, "This snake is called the Golden Python. It is gentle and non-venomous! The spirit snake lie detector is just a lie! Those who have no ulterior motives and a clear conscience are naturally not afraid of the test, but those who have ulterior motives will try every means to escape the test!"
He then pointed at the gardener: "Firstly, you deliberately cut your hands to cover up the so-called poisonous smell with blood and herbs. Secondly, you applied realgar to your hands to avoid being bitten by snakes. But what you don't know is that I added 'Hundred Flowers Elixir' to the water in this earthenware pot. 'Hundred Flowers Elixir' turns red when it comes into contact with realgar water!"
Someone pointed at the assassin in the corner, puzzled, and asked, "How...how did that assassin get bitten to death by a snake?!"
Before Mo Liuyun could speak, the assassin's corpse stood up, looking fresh and lifeless!
"Ah! Help!"
"Ah! It's come back to life!"
"Run!"
Some people were about to run out when the 'corpse' took off its black hood and said, "What are you doing, young master? I'm about to suffocate! I want chicken legs for dinner!"
After saying that, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. Everyone saw a familiar, fair-skinned baby face. It turned out to be Xiao Nan, the attendant of the Third Young Master.
Everyone then realized that the assassin's lie detector test was fake. Xiao Nan ran towards Mo Liuyun with a grin and said, "Divine Doctor, this golden python is so cute, can I touch it... hehe..."
Mo Liuyun had bought the golden python from the mall and was wondering what to do with it. When Xiao Nan asked about it and looked at him with starry eyes, he grabbed the golden python and threw it to Xiao Nan, saying, "If you like it, it's yours!"
Xiao Jinhua looked at Mo Liuyun with a hint of hesitation, while Mo Liuyun thought to himself: Could it be that my cousin wants it too?
Sure enough, the next second Xiao Nan shouted, "Young Master, I don't want chicken legs anymore, I want snake soup! I've never had this kind before, it must be delicious!"
Golden Python: My sincere heart was ultimately misplaced!
Mo Liuyun: Damn it! I thought you liked it and wanted to keep it as a pet, but I didn't expect you to be a foodie!
Mo Liuyun grabbed the golden python and threw it into the cage, saying, "At least it did a good job this time. It's really inappropriate to treat a meritorious animal like this! Inappropriate!"
Golden Python: Thank you so much!
Xiao Jinhua: I need to think about how to reward this 'meritorious official'!
Xiao Nan pouted: The snake soup that was about to be eaten has flown away! I feel like crying…
Seeing Xiao Nan's tearful expression, Xiao Jinhua said, both amused and annoyed, "I'll add a whole roasted chicken to your dinner tonight!" Then she tossed a silver ingot over.
Xiao Nanfei stood up, caught the silver, turned around, and climbed over the wall, shouting, "Thank you, young master! I'll change my clothes and go buy some chicken first. The roast chicken at Zuiyunlou will be sold out if you go too late!"
Mo Liuyun chuckled: This is definitely a foodie, but also quite cute.
Seeing this, everyone understood perfectly. From the moment the spirit snake began its lie detection last night, it was all a trap. Those with an honest conscience wouldn't bother to deal with the spirit snake; only those with a guilty conscience would try to evade its detection, only to be outsmarted by their own cleverness! Thinking this, everyone's respect for the divine physician grew even stronger. Not only had he found the traitor and cleared their name, but he had also saved the Duke!
Seeing the change in everyone's attitude, Mo Liuyun winked at Xiao Jinhua, meaning: Third cousin, it's your turn!
Seeing Mo Liuyun's signal, Xiao Jinhua stepped forward and said to everyone, "We were able to find the poisoner today thanks to everyone's cooperation. It has also shown us your loyalty. Everyone present today will be rewarded with one tael of silver."
I urge you all not to forget what happened today, and to always be careful in your words and actions, so as not to give those with ulterior motives an opportunity! If the Duke's mansion falls, there will be no place for you to hide! You must remember, when the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact!
"Hua'er is right!!" Everyone looked towards the source of the voice, only to see Duke Xiao appearing above the main hall at some unknown time. Everyone was overjoyed, but dared not ask any questions. They quickly knelt and bowed, saying, "Greetings to Your Excellency, Duke!"
"Everyone, get up and get back to work. There are still prisoners to interrogate here," the Duke said. Everyone bowed and took their leave. After everyone had left, the Duke turned to Xiao Jinhua and said, "Those assassins, Liu'er, and this gardener are all in your hands. Find the mastermind behind it all. Don't let your sister worry about it!"
Xiao Jinhua said, "I understand, Grandfather. We have some progress, and we should have news today."
Xiao Yi said, "That's good! By the way, Yun'er, come and tell your grandfather what exactly happened? You seem like a completely different person. When did you learn such proficient medical skills?"
Mo Liuyun thought to herself: As expected, what was bound to happen eventually did happen. Luckily, she was prepared.
So she repeated the story of how she was seriously injured by the Green King, how her master saved her, and how she swore when she became his disciple that she would not reveal her medical skills to others unless absolutely necessary. She also mentioned that she was planning to annul her engagement, as a precaution to prevent her maternal grandparents from being taken advantage of without their knowledge in the future!
Upon hearing that Mo Liuyun had been beaten and nearly died from his injuries, Xiao Yi slammed his hand on the tea table, causing tea to splash everywhere! Xiao Yi exclaimed, "Prince Qing, how dare he? How dare he? Does he think the Xiao family has no one to rely on?" Madam Chu hugged Mo Liuyun tightly, tears streaming down her face, "My child, you've suffered so much these past years! Waaah..."
Zhou Shi was also wiping away tears. After hearing this, Xiao Jinhua looked at Mo Liuyun with even more guilt and heartache. Thinking of their Xiao family, their grandparents had only given birth to their eldest uncle, father, and aunt. Their aunt had been pampered and spoiled since childhood.
Grandfather doted on her, treating her like a precious jewel. Uncle and father also doted on her. Uncle only had two sons, and neither branch of the family had daughters. Cousin was the only young lady in the Xiao family, yet she was treated so badly! He would not be a gentleman if he did not avenge this, and he remembered it.
Mo Liuyun comforted her, "Grandmother, Grandfather, Aunt, I'm not bitter. I believe that only by enduring hardship can one rise above others. A fine sword is forged through tempering, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold. Look at me now, I not only have the martial arts skills to protect myself, but I also have medical skills to defend myself. In all of Beili City, which young lady can compare to me? Isn't that right?"
"A fine sword is forged through tempering, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold. Well said! You are truly worthy of being a member of the Xiao family!" Xiao Yi exclaimed.
Mo Liuyun then remembered that this trip was not only for her maternal grandfather, but also for her eldest maternal uncle who was about to return seriously injured. So she said, "Grandfather, I received news that the border is in good condition and Father is about to lead his troops back to the capital. My eldest maternal uncle is seriously injured and has already returned ahead of us. I wonder if this is true?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi asked, "When did the message arrive?" Madam Chu replied, "I received a message from Chu Tian the day before yesterday, saying that he would arrive in Beili City in about three days! You were still unconscious at that time, so the only option now is to wait!"
"Grandmother, no!" Mo Liuyun exclaimed. Xiao Yi, upon hearing this, asked, "Yun'er, do you have a good plan to resolve this predicament?"
Mo Liuyun glanced at Xiao Jinhua and said, "I think that instead of sitting and waiting for death, we should take the initiative and seize the opportunity. Perhaps we can give my uncle a chance to live!"
Mo Jinhua bowed deeply and said, "Please enlighten me, cousin!"
Mo Liuyun quickly stepped aside, saying, "Third cousin, we're family. You're not treating me like family!" Xiao Jinhua hurriedly replied, "Cousin, you've been confused. Please explain!"
Mo Jinhua said, "Grandmother, I think we can send reliable elites to meet him. This will greatly reduce the delay in treatment during the journey. In addition, my eldest uncle is seriously injured, and there is no guarantee that no one will take advantage of his misfortune on the way back!"
Xiao Yi nodded in agreement. Mo Liuyun then took out two bottles and a paper package from his pocket and said, "One of these bottles is a spiritual liquid that can cure all poisons. Its detoxification effect is even better than the Limitless Pill! In addition, it can also enhance physical fitness, and its effect is comparable to a hundred-year-old ginseng!"
The other bottle contains top-grade white medicine, which can stop bleeding and accelerate wound healing. The other packet contains a half-day intoxicant; inhaling it will cause immediate unconsciousness, and its effects last for six hours! In case of defeat, it can ensure a safe retreat! Did my third cousin have any antidote left from last night?
Mo Jinhua said, "There is half a bottle left, Grandfather. In that case, I will immediately select men to go and meet you. As for matters in the manor, I will have to trouble you to take charge!"
Mo Liuyun said, "Grandfather, your health is much better now. I came out secretly this time. I will come and check on you again when you return home."
