Chapter 213: You can’t avoid what’s coming(1/2)
Leaving Anhou Mansion.
In the secret room.
Li Wuji sat quietly on the chair, his face gloomy and terrifying.
Before interrogating Fu'an, he had already made preparations in advance and asked Di Long to guard outside, just because he didn't want to be killed suddenly in the middle of questioning like before!
But unexpectedly, an accident happened! Let him miss the truth again!
And what’s different from before is that this time it was actually done by someone else!
At this moment, footsteps were heard, the door of the secret room slowly opened, and Cao Zian walked in quickly.
"Son..."
Cao Zian walked in quickly, took a look at Tian Yuan's corpse on the ground, frowned, and knelt down in front of Li Wuji with a look of remorse.
"Give me an explanation!"
Li Wuji slowly raised his head and looked at Cao Zian, and asked coldly, his cold tone almost making the entire secret room drop to freezing point.
"These are all subordinates who have neglected their duties. Please punish me, Master!"
"But…"
Cao Zian bowed his hand and admitted his mistake first, then hesitated and stopped talking.
"But what?!"
Li Wuji asked coldly.
"Sir, most of the people in Tianyuan are the lord's old subordinates. Even if some people did not follow the lord back then, my subordinates are willing to guarantee with their lives that they will never betray Tianyuan or the master!"
Cao Zian's face was solemn and he said decisively, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
"I believe you! I have never doubted you!"
"But not long ago, I watched him kill a key witness in front of me!"
"How do you expect me to believe that he didn't betray Tianyuan?!"
Li Wuji asked coldly with a sullen face.
Listening to Li Wuji's series of questions, Cao Zian was speechless and turned to look at the subordinate unwillingly, with a struggling expression.
But at this moment, Cao Zian suddenly frowned, with a trace of doubt on his face.
"Sir, can you allow me to examine the body and then explain to you?"
Cao Zian hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly raised his hands and said.
Li Wuji hesitated for a moment, raised his hand to signal, and did not interfere.
After getting Li Wuji's approval, Cao Zian hurriedly stood up and quickly came to the subordinate. He took a look at his face, then reached out and opened his eyelids, and then his expression suddenly changed.
"Sir, there is a problem!"
Cao Zian suddenly looked up at Li Wuji and said loudly.
"What?!"
Li Wuji asked in a deep voice.
"There's something wrong with his expression, and his eyes!"
Cao Zian pointed at the corpse's face and said loudly.
Li Wuji frowned, stood up and came to the body. He lowered his head and looked down, and then he couldn't help but frown.
"What's the problem?"
Di Long also came over and asked curiously, deliberately relaxing the atmosphere in the secret room.
As Li Wuji's right-hand man, he and Cao Zian have always cooperated and trusted each other, and they never believed that Cao Zian would betray Li Wuji.
"He died from a heavy blow to the abdomen, but don't you think his expression was too calm?"
"Even if he has been dead for a long time, at least there will be some traces on his expression. But when you look at his face, it is calmer than if nothing happened!"
Cao Zian pointed at the corpse's face and said loudly.
"That makes sense!"
Di Long suddenly realized it and couldn't help but say.
Li Wuji said nothing, his brows still furrowed, because he also discovered this problem at a glance.
Before, because the incident happened suddenly and was very strange, he actually ignored this point.
"And his eyes!"
Cao Zian said as he opened the corpse's eyes again!
At this moment, the corpse's eyes suddenly turned dark, with no whites at all! There was a strange sluggishness!
The eyes of the dead are also motionless and lifeless, but at this time, the eyes of this corpse are even weirder!
"Why are they all black?!"
"The more I look at it, the more it looks like..."
Di Long was stunned for a moment and exclaimed, but stopped mid-sentence. He couldn't think of any words to describe the feeling in his heart.
"He has lost his mind!"
"Sir, if my prediction is correct, someone must have controlled his mind!"
Cao Zian nodded towards Di Long, then turned to look at Li Wuji and said loudly.
Having been in the world for many years, he has seen a lot. He has also heard about strange poisons that can control people's minds, but everything is just rumors and he has never seen it with his own eyes!
"Control your mind?!"
"Isn't it a magic spell?!"
Di Long opened his mouth in surprise, asking questions in disbelief.
"It's not magic, it's enchantment!"
Li Wuji narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, his excitement gradually calming down.
"Charm?!"
"It means that this person touched a woman not long ago and was controlled by her mind?!"
Dillon asked in surprise.
"It's a charm, not a charm!"
"The charm spell is just a rumor. It is said that a person who is possessed by this spell is no different from a puppet on a string, and can even kill people under the control of the person who casts the spell!"
"But before the order is issued, it is difficult to find the flaw! That's why no one has ever discovered that he has been controlled by others!"
Cao Zian explained patiently, with a solemn expression.
Li Wuji frowned slightly. For him, what he saw and heard was far broader than Cao Zian and Di Long. After all, he came from another colorful world.
"Then who did it?!"
"Who wants to kill Fu'an?! Could it be that the empress' people control him?!"
Di Long asked puzzledly, feeling shocked.
"We just received the news tonight that Fu'an has been arrested and is being taken to the capital. It is impossible for the Empress' people to know so quickly!"
"Even if his mind has been controlled by others, it is impossible for him to communicate with the controlled person and pass on the message!"
"So, the only people who know that I'm going to see Fu'an are the people in Tonight's House!"
Li Wuji narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
"In other words, the person who controlled him and the person who wanted to kill Fu'an was in the mansion at that time! And it is very likely that he followed the young master to that ruined temple!"
Cao Zian's pupils shrank suddenly and he couldn't help but said loudly.
"That's right!"
Li Wuji nodded and said coldly.
"Who on earth could it be?!"
"Since it's not a charm technique, it shouldn't be a woman. Could it be that this person was hiding in Tianyuan or Tianshu next to the young master?!"
Di Long asked doubtfully.
"No, if this person was in the ruined temple at that time, it would be impossible for Fu'an to let Fu An reveal so many secrets. At most, he could only be near the ruined temple!"
"Besides, this person may not be a woman!"
Li Wuji said coldly while thinking.
He thought of the mysterious woman Fu'an had mentioned who would keep the eunuch awake at night even if he looked at her more than once, and he seemed to have suddenly figured out something.
Moreover, tonight is the night of Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, and some of the best maikos in the world were invited to perform dances before leaving after dinner.
