Tang Bai called out three times but no one responded. He couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows and ask Du Jiangsheng: "Child, where is your big sister Yan?"

Du Jiangsheng also had similar doubts. He looked around, but he couldn't find any of Yan Jiuniang's shadow, so he quickly looked at Meng Chunlou, hoping to get a hint from him. However, Meng Chunlou's doubts were not any less than his, and there were even some traces of impatience on his face.

Seeing that Du Jiangsheng couldn't answer, Tang Bai coldly smiled and said: "Child, could it be that you made up the Big Sister Yan you are talking about?" It was really puzzling! We followed the order to save them, but we were attacked by someone! "

"I'm not lying to you, you're overthinking it!" Du Jiangsheng coldly replied.

At this time, Xia Yu hurried over. When she saw Meng Chunlou, she immediately shouted, "Hero Meng, my master invites you over. He says he has something to discuss with you!"

Meng Chunlou saw her nervous expression and knew that the situation was urgent, so she immediately cupped her fist and said, "Goodbye." Then she left the scene with Xia Yu in a hurry.

When Tang Bai saw this, he couldn't help but laugh bitterly. He then asked: "Young Hero Meng, are you planning on using this as an excuse to slip away?"

"Bullshit!" Du Jiangsheng angrily glared at him, "Can't you see that he really has something urgent to do?"

"Then what should we do? If that Big Sister Yan of yours doesn't come, who can prove our good intentions? " Tang Bai angrily said.

"What are you so anxious about?" "Just now, the owner of that big sister was my big sister Yan. If you're in a hurry to see her, then go find her yourself. No one will stop you!" Du Jiangsheng said.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" As soon as these words came out of his mouth, he wanted to give chase, but a group of villagers blocked his path. His face immediately flushed red with anxiety as he shouted, "Why are you blocking me? I am going to find his Sister Yan! "

"Our village does not welcome the people from the Wishing Hall!" The villagers answered with stern faces.

"Why are you two so hostile?" Tang Bai angrily said.

When Niu Xiaobao heard this, he could not help but smile bitterly. He then said, "It's not that we don't get along well, it's just that you people from the Wishing Hall have done too many bad things!"

"But this time, we are here to save him!" Tang Bai patiently explained.

"Then you can go in after Big Sister Yan has finished her verification. If you dare to barge in, we're not afraid of you!" Niu Xiaobao said in a low voice.

He wanted to argue with him, but he was afraid that by offending him he would cause more trouble, so he could only turn around and find a secluded place to vent his anger. He quietly waited for Yan Jiuniang's arrival.

Du Jiangsheng waited for a while, but Yan Jiuniang did not come over. He was sure that there was something amiss, so he quietly told Niu Xiaobao to keep an eye on the group and went to look for Yan Jiuniang and company.

At this time, the sun was rising and the mist was fading away. The outline of the entire village became clearer, and many birds were happily singing in the branches. This made people feel much better, after all, places where people were alive always made people happy and happy!

Du Jiangsheng walked along the small village road for a long time before he finally heard Meng Chunlou's voice. He immediately rushed over and saw that it was Huang Dajian's home. Meng Chunlou's voice came from the back of Huang Da An's house.

Du Jiangsheng followed the sound and rushed to the back of the house. He saw that Yan Jiuniang, her four maids and Meng Chunlou were all there. He then slowly walked over and shouted, "So you are all here.

When Yan Jiuniang heard that, she couldn't help but be startled, and asked: "Someone with the surname 'Zhong'? "Where did you get this from?"

"It was sent by Ru Yi Hall. They brought the food and herbs, saying that they were here to help the refugees, but the villagers didn't believe them, so they stopped them at the village entrance!" Meng Quan explained.

"They sent the herbs?" Yan Jiuniang was slightly surprised, "Could their herbs cure the poison of the man-eating vine?"

"That's hard to say!" Meng Chun Lou pondered for a while, "But from that person's words, it seems that he can cure the poison!"

"Oh?" Yan Jiuniang hesitated, "If their herbs can cure the poison, then what's the use of these camphor trees?"

When Du Jiangsheng heard these words, he noticed that there were more than ten camphor trees planted in this small place. He asked, "Sister Yan, could it be that these camphor trees are the key to detoxifying the poison?"

"That's right!" Yan Jiuniang smiled faintly, "If it weren't for the fact that Qiu Ying had inadvertently heard about the camphor tree here, I would not have known about this. When I came here, I realized that these camphor trees are exactly the same as the ones we brought from the forest, they are all savior seedlings!"

"It can't be?" Du Jiangsheng was greatly shocked, "Since it's a sapling that saves others, why would it grow here?"

"I'm also wondering. After all, this is too strange!" Yan Jiuniang said with a frown.

"This is Huang Dajian's home, could he have planted these trees himself?" Qiuying tried to ask.

"Impossible!" Yan Jiuniang shook her head, "Because if he planted it intentionally, he would know the use of this tree, but he still fell victim to the plague!"

"What if he doesn't know the use of this tree?" Qiuying asked.

"If he doesn't know the use of this tree, why did he plant these seedlings here?" Du Jiangsheng smiled bitterly. "Have you ever seen anyone plant a dozen camphor trees in the back of a house?"

"That's true!" Autumn Shadow could not help but frown. "What exactly is Huang Dajian trying to do?"

When Meng Chun Lou heard this, he pondered for a while, then turned to Yan Jiuniang and said, "You said that all these trees can cure the man-eating vine's poison, are you sure?"

"I'm sure!" Yan Jiuniang immediately pointed at the roots of the camphor trees, "Look! The roots of these trees all have a distinct characteristic, and that is, their soil is all red, but the surrounding soil is not this color! "

Everyone looked carefully and noticed that the soil close to the camphor tree was red. It was obvious that it was different from the surrounding dirt. Meng Quan then asked, "Why is that?"

"This means that these trees were transplanted from other places!" Du Jiangsheng said.

"Not only that, these trees were planted by someone from a young age. They were specifically designed to suppress the man-eating vine's poison, but ordinary camphor trees do not have this effect!" Yan Jiuniang said.

"Oh?" Meng Quan was slightly surprised, "There's actually such a strange thing?" I thought as long as it's a camphor tree, it's fine! "

Yan Jiu gave a faint smile and said, "If any kind of camphor tree can cure the poison of a human vine, then why would I want to use something else to replace the camphor tree?"

"Since this tree was transplanted from another place, it at least means that the person who transplanted this tree knew of this tree's abilities. Otherwise, why would he make such a move?" Qiu Ying asked with a smile.

"I've finally hit the nail on the head!" Yan Jiuniang nodded, "Do you all still remember the evaluation that Royal Elder gave Huang Dajian?"

"Of course! He said that Huang Darian was a very smart person, a rare genius in their village in the past hundred years! " Autumn Shadow said.

"That's right! With his intelligence and the ancient books and records left behind by his parents, would he not be able to think of a way to deal with this plague? " Yan Jiuniang asked.

"I understand!" Du Jiangsheng abruptly slapped his thigh, "He must have found that this tree can suppress the poison in the man-eating vine when he was dying, so he told this to the village chief. But the village chief has already reached the end of his life, and he felt that he could only rely on Huang Darian to lead the villagers to overcome this plague, so he handed over the most important letter to Huang Dajan …"

"But he never thought that the secret Huang Dajian discovered would be known by Linghu Wu Hen, who snuck into Huang An Village disguised as a snitch. At this time, Linghu Wu Hen was doing everything he could to provoke a conflict between us and the villagers, and when he saw that the plot was about to be exposed, he killed Huang Daxian to divert our attention!" Meng Chunlou added.

"Right, right, that's how it is!" Yan Jiuniang's face was filled with joy, "I remember that Linghu Wuheng personally admitted that he killed Huang Dajian!"

"That's not right!" Even though Linghu Wuheng had personally admitted to killing Huang Dajian, he did not admit that he had killed Huang Dajian because he knew that the camphor tree could dispel the poison from the man vine! " Du Jiangsheng thought carefully for a moment. "I remember the reason Linghu Wu Hen said that was because Huang Dajian wanted to carve Xiao Cui's name into his heart. He killed him to alleviate Huang Dajan's pain!"

"If that's really the case, then it's either Linghu Wu Hen who lied at that time, or the truth of the matter is absolutely not as superficial as it appears on the surface!" Autumn Shadow said with a frown.

"It's unlikely to be a lie!" Yan Jiuniang frowned, "At that time, Linghu Wu Hen's victory was already in his grasp, he definitely wouldn't have expected that we would have the possibility of a comeback. The words he said in satisfaction were very credible!"

"Since he is not lying, then the truth is another outcome!" Autumn Shadow said.

"NO!" He lied! " Du Jiangsheng said with a stern expression.

"He lied?" Meng and Yan couldn't help but be shocked. "How is that possible?"

Du Jiangsheng lightly smiled and said, "Don't be surprised yet. Just listen to my analysis and you will understand! At that time, Linghu Wu Hen trapped us and he knew that victory was within his grasp, so it was highly possible that he would speak the truth.

"What difficulties?" Yan Jiuniang asked.

"The problem is the truth!" Du Jiangsheng gave a slight smile, "Since Huang Dajian knows that this camphor tree can cure the man-eating vine's poison, what will he do next? He would definitely think of a way to use these camphor trees to heal the villagers. Then, wouldn't Linghu's plan to make the villagers suffer be in vain? Therefore, he will definitely not allow Huang Dajian to do so. Thus, he can only kill Huang Dajan! "

"That makes sense!" Only the dead can keep a secret! " Meng Chun said.

"I don't understand one thing, Huang Dahan was killed by Linghu Wuheng not long after Huang Shengren's grain was delivered. Judging from the time, what Linghu Wuheng said after trapping us all seemed more likely to be true, but according to what you said, Linghu Wuheng should have killed Huang Dahan long ago. That doesn't seem to match!" Yan Jiuniang looked at Du Jiangsheng and said.

"Who said that Huang Daxian must have died after being delivered with the food? Why couldn't he have died for a very long time?" Du Jiangsheng asked with a smile.

"Long dead? Is that possible? " Yan Jiuniang asked with a wry smile.

"Why not?" Du Jiangsheng gave a faint smile. "When Huang Dajian died, his body was completely rotten. Can you tell how many days he died?"

'Logically speaking, I should be able to figure out how long it will take. However, he has the plague, and this plague will cause his body to rot. That's why I can't tell when he'll die … ' Yan Jiuniang's eyes couldn't help but light up when she said this, "I understand! It's because of the effects of the plague that we missed out on the correct time for his death! "

"That's right!" Otherwise, with Huang Dajian's personality and the Village Head's expectations for him, how could he not have treated the villagers earlier? "Why would they wait until they die and not tell us their secret?" Du Jiangsheng asked with a smile.

"But when he died, there was a poem by his bedside. The content on it hated the villagers greatly. Would he really abandon his past hatred and save those villagers?" Meng Chun Lou asked.

"Who said that the poem was written by Huang Dahan?" Du Jiangsheng smiled bitterly. "Although I didn't read much, I still know that the poem was written in such a lousy way. If it was Huang Dahan's intellect, how could he have written such a lousy poem? I think that the poem was very likely forged by Linghu Wu Hen, because only he would judge a person by his appearance, and regard a genius as a rugged old man with no rich brocade! "

"Makes sense!" Yan Jiuniang gave a faint smile, "After hearing your words, connecting the dots makes sense!"

"In addition, that poem has another use!" Du Jiangsheng forced out a smile, "This is to prove the hatred between Huang Dahan and the villagers, and to make everyone believe that he is the murderer!"

"That's right!" Back then, many people had mistaken the mastermind for Huang Dajian! " When Yan Jiuniang heard this, her eyes couldn't help but shoot out an icy blade like cold light, "This Linghu has no hatred. Not only did he kill a genius, he even made him take the blame for himself. He's too despicable!"

When Meng Chun Lou heard this, she couldn't help but think for a while before saying, "There is a loophole!"

"Vulnerability?" What loophole do you mean? " Yan Jiuniang asked.

"I remember that when I went to see Huang Dahan, the blood stains on his bed had not dried. Doesn't that mean that the poem was just written? But you guys said that Huang Dajan died a long time ago. Meng Chun Lou asked.

When Du Jiangsheng heard this, he could not help but let out a faint smile and said, "Who said I can't match the right number? Doesn't this just happen to mean that the poem was written by Linghu Wu Hen on the spot? "

"Oh, that's true!" Meng Chun Lou seemed to have understood something and nodded, "Now everything is clear. We don't need to care about who is right and wrong anymore. Let's use this camphor tree to cure the villagers!"

"Then how do we deal with the people from the Ru Yi Hall?" Du Jiangsheng asked.

"Let them go back where they came from!" Meng Chun Lou laughed lightly, "Huang An Village doesn't lack food nor medicinal herbs to save people. What do you need their things for?"

"But what if the things they brought were true?" Du Jiangsheng asked.

Meng Chun Lou scratched her head, then looked at Yan Jiuniang and said: "If that's true, then it at least means that there are good people in the Ru Yi Hall, so we can't be too rude towards them! What should I do? "

Yan Jiuniang gave a faint smile and said, "It's still too early to come to a conclusion on whether or not there is a problem with the item. Let's wait for me to examine it before we make any calculations!"

"Alright! Let's go and check it out! " As soon as Meng Chun Lou finished her sentence, she rushed toward the village entrance.
