The divine doctor's concubine emptied the palace and went into exile

Chapter 158 The mastermind behind the scenes

Shang Ruoyi took out a pill and dissolved it with spiritual spring water. This is a detoxification pill that can detoxify most toxins.

After giving her the antidote, she still showed no signs of waking up.

Looking at the black marks on her body gradually fading away, Shang Ruoyi felt relieved.

These markings look like corpse spots, but they are very different from corpse spots.

Rather than calling it corpse spots, it would be more accurate to say that it was caused by corpse poison.

Corpse poison?

Could it be that those people are refining corpse poison?

Just then, a pungent smell appeared and Shang Ruoyi frowned.

This is the smell of corpse oil.

At this time, outside the space, two people were patrolling with lanterns in their hands.

The pungent smell came from the lantern.

"Hey? I remember there was a body here just now, where did it go?"

"Yes! I remember there were two too." The two of them looked at each other and said, "Could it be that he's resurrected from the dead?" As soon as the words fell, a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to his forehead, and he wished he could throw away the things in his hands.

The next moment, two silver needles flew out.

One bullet hit the man right between his eyebrows, and he stopped breathing on the spot. The other bullet hit the other man's mute point, and no matter how he shouted, he couldn't make a sound.

Looking at the person who appeared out of nowhere, he was absolutely sure that this must be a zombie and there must be something fishy going on.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard a sinister voice behind him: "If you kill someone, you must pay with your life. If you owe a debt, you must pay it back."

The man was so scared that he wet his pants. If his mute point had been untied, he would have begged for mercy.

Shang Ruoyi looked at the lantern he threw on the ground. From the smell coming out of it, Shang Ruoyi was sure that it was indeed corpse oil.

She couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine.

The person who did these things must be a murderer, otherwise how could he do such cruel things?

The cruelest thing is that even babies are not spared.

During the day, she discovered the skeletons of several babies.

No matter who it is, she must find him out.

She exerted force with her hands and brought the man directly into the space.

The man almost fainted from fright as he watched the changing scene before him.

Where is this place?

It was dark just now, how come it’s light now?

Looking at the surrounding scenery again, it turned out to be a strange place.

This! When he looked at Shang Ruoyi again, he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.

He couldn't make any sound, but it wasn't difficult to guess what he was saying from his mouth shapes.

It's nothing more than the gods sparing his life.

Let him go?

Shang Ruoyi sneered.

Since she brought him into this space, she had no intention of letting him leave alive.

She walked up to him, took off the silver needle from his neck, and said coldly, "Whatever I ask you, you tell me the truth, understand?"

The man nodded and said in a hoarse voice, "Understood."

"Who are you all subordinate to? Who are you?"

"I am a subordinate of General Morta of Beiling."

General Beiling?

What are you doing here?

"What are you Beiling people doing here?"

The man blinked, as if thinking about how to answer her question.

Shang Ruoyi sneered: "You'd better answer honestly, otherwise, you may not be able to leave here."

Shang Ruoyi's words instantly made him give up the idea of ​​lying to her.

"The general is developing corpse poison here."

It really is corpse poison.

"Don't ask any questions, just tell me everything you know." Shang Ruoyi said angrily.

"Yes, yes, yes." He swallowed. "We in Beiling have never won the war with Tianshun, only because the iron cavalry of Dingguo Palace is too powerful. So the general came up with a way to poison. He developed corpse poison in Dahuang Village and threw the poisoned people into the river. Toxins will gradually appear in the river. The lower reaches of the river is Liangzhou City. Half of Tianshun's grain is produced there. By then, the people who grow grain will be poisoned, and Tianshun will inevitably face a food shortage. If the court does not care, many people will starve to death. If the court uses the silver money in the treasury to relieve the disaster in order to avoid the people's livelihood, it will inevitably buy food from other countries. We in Beiling are rich in grain. When the time comes, we will take the opportunity to blackmail them. It will repeat over and over again. Sooner or later, Tianshun will be emptied." He swallowed and said carefully, "When the time comes, we will kill them again."

Shang Ruoyi narrowed her eyes. This general of Beiling really had a way of doing things. He linked everything together and cut off the source of the problem.

"So you killed everyone in Dahuang Village."

After hearing what she said, the man lowered his head and dared not speak.

It is said that the success of a general is the result of the sacrifice of hundreds of soldiers.

Shang Ruoyi sneered: "What a great general Beiling is."

"I have told you everything I know. Can the gods let me go?" He begged, "I have elderly parents and young children to take care of. My child is less than one year old. If I die, what will happen to them?"

"What should I do?" Shang Ruoyi said angrily, "How dare you say that?" She picked up the child she had just rescued, and saw that all the black spots on her body had disappeared. "She was also a baby in swaddling clothes. How could you have the heart to do that to her?"

The man was stunned, then lowered his head.

Shang Ruoyi looked at him, a silver light flashed in her hand, and a sharp scalpel was placed against the man's neck: "Where is your general now?"

The dagger flashed with cold light, and a drop of blood flowed down his neck.

He stood with his legs together, fearing that one of her hands would use too much force and send him to hell.

"The general is in the easternmost tent."

Shang Ruoyi curled the corners of her lips when she heard that. She waved her hand and the scene changed again. The moment she left the space, she swung the dagger in her hand and directly cut his neck.

Following his words, Shang Ruoyi walked all the way to the east. Just when she was about to leave the village, Shang Ruoyi saw some black tents standing on the ground.

Several teams were patrolling with lanterns.

Shang Ruoyi hid in the dark, looking towards the tents.

At the deepest part, there is a tent that is much larger than the other tents. It must be the residence of General Beiling.

At this moment, several painful cries were heard from the tent not far ahead.

Shang Ruoyi avoided the patrolling soldiers and came to the tent. She opened a corner of the tent and saw several people tied to scaffolds with several wounds on their bodies. A soldier was pouring a bottle of medicine on his wounds.

Painful sounds continued to escape from the mouths of several people.

From the smell emanating from it, Shang Ruoyi knew that the porcelain bottle contained refined corpse poison.

There was a hint of anger in her eyes. She wanted to help but was afraid of alerting the enemy. After thinking for a while, she took out a cylinder containing a sleeping pill.

After a few breaths, there were several sounds of people falling to the ground in the tent. Looking inside, those people were already unconscious.

Shang Ruoyi continued to walk towards the tent.

After finally getting outside the tent, before he could even lift the curtain, he heard the man inside say in a deep voice, "The people from the Dingguo Palace have already taken He Yuwen back. How come there hasn't been any news so far?"

Shang Ruoyi's hand suddenly stopped.

It's them!
