C100

Seeing that Gongsun Xiao was confident, Song Yao trusted him and everything depended on Tang Bai.

The two of them crossed the pond and wanted to leave, but as they were not familiar with the layout of the manor, it seemed that they had arrived at the deepest part of the manor.

The two of them walked into the courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard stood a towering tree, and when Song Yao walked to the bottom of the tree to take a look, she realized that it was actually a walnut tree.

There were quite a few walnuts on the tree, but they were not fully ripe yet. The trees were green and the sunlight seeped through the gaps between the leaves. Each walnut looked cute.

It reminded her of a time when she had lived at her grandmother's house as a child.

It was the only consolation of her childhood.

Unconsciously, she walked in the direction of the tree roots. When she was young, a few kids could hold onto the big tree by holding hands. That was the only friendship she had ever had.

"What are you doing?" A sudden voice broke her memories, causing Song Yao to come back to her senses. He turned around and said: "Nothing, I just remembered something."

Gongsun Xiao was startled: "I'm asking you why you're stepping on dirty things. Such a big thing, don't you see?"

"Huh?" Song Yao was startled, and then subconsciously looked down at her feet. She slowly raised her feet, and at the same time, a black mass appeared below her feet, a pungent smell suddenly rushed to her head. Song Yao let out a loud scream, and pounced towards Gongsun Xiao.

Gongsun Xiao did not expect her to do something like this, and was almost pushed to the ground by her, barely managing to stabilize his body: "It's just a dead cat, how can you be so cowardly? I thought you weren't afraid, didn't you see? "

Song Yao grabbed onto his clothes and hid behind him: "It's not because the darned cat is scared, but because the darned cat is scared! Furthermore, I was a bit distracted just now and was completely focused on this tree, so I didn't even notice the ground beneath my feet. "

Gongsun Xiao said helplessly: "Seeing how weak you are, I thought you were not afraid of anything."

Song Yao pinched his nose and said: "Bury it, bury it, then it won't come looking for me anymore, it said that cats have intelligence, if it knew that it died and was stepped on by me, it would definitely come looking for me."

Gongsun Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You still believe this?"

If Song Yao did not speak, what in this world could not be trusted? Travelling through this anti-science thing had all happened to her. Why couldn't she believe that a cat had a cat spirit?

"Hurry, bury it. Let it rest in the ground. This way, my sins will be less serious."

Gongsun Xiao said: "I have never done such a thing before, let's go first, I'll let the others handle this later."

"Are you stupid? Who do you want to deal with it? Are you afraid that Li Wanji doesn't know that we wandered around the mansion? "

"What's wrong with that? This marquis wanted me to honor him, so wouldn't he feel lucky?"

"Aiya, now let's not talk about the Marquis anymore. Hurry up and get rid of him." She paused for a moment and said, "Or are you afraid, just like me?"

Gongsun Xiao rolled his eyes at her: "Intimidating me is useless."

Song Yao said: "Just treat this as a kindness, hurry up."

Gongsun Xiao said helplessly: "I'm really afraid of you, when did I ever do such a thing? I've really done everything for you, how are you going to repay me?"

Song Yao shamelessly replied. "We're good friends, why are you talking so politely? Aren't you saying that …"

"What do you mean by 'what do you want to do'?" Gongsun Xiao asked.

"Hehehe …" Song Yao laughed lowly.

"Never mind, I won't do it again." With that said, Gongsun Xiao walked towards the cat. He tore a piece of cloth from her clothes and wrapped the cat inside.

Song Yao stood at the side and looked carefully, it was a black cat. It was very small, it might have been a few months old, how could it have died here?

At this time, Gongsun Xiao suddenly said, "This cat …"

Song Yao asked: "What's wrong?"

Gongsun Xiao said: "This cat's death isn't right, and it has only just started to rot. The smell isn't that bad either, so it must have died a day or two ago. "Look at its dead body, there is even more filth coming out of its mouth. It's very possible that it died from poison, and it's even possible that it's arsenic."

"Huh?" Song Yao could no longer care about being afraid, she rushed forward to take a closer look: "Is what you said true?"

Gongsun Xiao said: "Do you really not know how to judge?"

He stood up and looked around. "If I'm not wrong, it must have been a small amount of arsenic poisoning. The cat didn't eat it here. It must have died here after eating it somewhere."

Song Yao asked in surprise, "Isn't arsenic a poison that dies the moment it comes into contact with a poison?"

Gongsun Xiao said: "All poisons are poisonous, the process is poisonous, and there is a difference in quantity. Although arsenic is extremely toxic, a small amount of poison can still be cured, but if you delay the time, it will also die. This cat is probably one of these. However, Young Master Li took too much arsenic, which resulted in him dying from the poison. "

Song Yao nodded her head: "Then, are these two matters related?"

Gongsun Xiao stood up and covered his nose: "Do you want to take it with you?"

"Right, I need to get someone to confirm that I'm not an expert after all."

Song Yao nodded and said, "Then please stay away from me. This smell, is too unpleasant."

Gongsun Xiao replied: I can't take it anymore, I've been with the dead before, what's wrong?

"Huh?" Song Yao was surprised.

Gongsun Xiao laughed: "There are too many things you have yet to think of, now is not the time to talk about this, let's go, this can be considered as an important clue."

"Yes." Song Yao followed a few steps behind, and said while walking: "Do you know the way? Can we really walk out? "

Song Yao reacted for a moment before asking, "Are you a person with a poor sense of direction?"

Gongsun Xiao took something from his waist and pulled it, the sounds of fire and smoke suddenly resonating above him, he turned around and asked: "What is Lu Chi?"

Song Yao tripped and said: "It's just that I can't find the way, I'm always lost."

Gongsun Xiao's face flushed red: How could that be, I just can't stand the stench of this cat anymore, I'll just have someone take care of it ahead of time.

"Oh, oh, oh." Song Yao answered with a smile: "I understand, I understand. Then, who will come?"

"Tang Bai." Gongsun Xiao said.

"Can he find the exact location?" Song Yao asked.

Gongsun Xiao said: "Did you know? If you ask that question in front of Tang Bai, he might beat you up. "

"Is he that fierce?" Song Yao felt a bit wronged.
