It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 511
"Of course it's not okay to see someone's illness!" Mu Liuyun replied without thinking, "But I can't do it. I can still see it when I look at a poisoned person. Whether it can be cured or not is another matter." It's happening, at least let's take a look!"

"Have you already made some guesses?" Yuan Mu felt that Mu Liuyun seemed to have some conclusions about the situation here.

Mu Liuyun nodded: "Although I still don't understand the situation, there is a passage in the letter left by my father. Because it is too bizarre, when I was young, I watched and played it almost as a ghost story, so my impression profound.

What my father recorded in the notebook is that in the early years, there were some strange things in various places in Darui Dynasty. There was also a pond in one place. The water in the pond suddenly turned blood red overnight, and the people around were terrified. Everyone thought it was a vision, and no one dared to go near the pond, for fear of some ghosts and ghosts coming out.

But the strange thing is that people are terribly afraid, but there is nothing unusual about the birds and animals in that area, as if there is nothing wrong with it except for the water changing color.

And there is more than one place here. In those few years, such strange things happened in many places. The local people were terrified, but no one was haunted by the evil spirit. this kind of thing. "

"Just because the water turned blood-red, no one was bewitched by evil spirits afterwards?" Shen Yu was surprised, "Then nothing happened afterwards? The place where this kind of thing happened has always been quite peaceful?"

"Taiping doesn't really count." Mu Liuyun shook his head, "There were bandits in those places, but they were not serious. Before the bandits became popular, they were wiped out by the government in one fell swoop."

Hearing this, Yuan Mu frowned, thought for a while, and nodded: "I have heard this matter from my father before, and it was said that there was a period of time during the time of the first emperor. There were bandits everywhere, but every time there was nothing When it became a climate, they were exterminated, and later the late emperor imposed severe punishments on those who commit crimes, in order to frighten the world, and after beheading some people, the people did live in peace, and those bandits disappeared without a trace again."

"Then the places where bandits were wiped out...is there any difference?" Mu Liuyun pointed out that she and Yuan Mu had discussed in detail the characteristics of the places where bandits had occurred in recent years. Pass.

Yuan Mu knew what she meant and nodded, "That's right, iron mines were discovered in those places later."

"Sure enough!" Upon hearing that there were indeed iron mines there, Mu Liuyun suddenly regained his spirits, "Then, all of this is not a coincidence! Whether it happened many years ago, or what happened in the border of Shezhou now The root cause of these strange things should be figured out! There must be something to do with the so-called bandits behind it!

And wherever there are bandits, there are definitely some treasures, either this kind of mine or that kind of mine!So, the red blood-like water, did someone deliberately add something to it, either to intimidate the surrounding residents so that they would not dare to approach, so as to achieve the purpose of concealing people's eyes, or to make a mark so that other accomplices can compare easy to find. "

"That's true, but the situation this time seems to be different from the past. Since your father's handbook once recorded such events as the water in the pond suddenly turning blood-colored, it is also clearly recorded. There is nothing unusual about the beasts, and they were not poisoned to death in pieces, so the so-called evil spirits of Shezhou's generation have nothing to do with the blood-red water." Yuan Mu's brows furrowed involuntarily.

"Do you remember the old man who gave us water to drink? He said that the water in the well in the yard of his house did not change color, and it was fine to drink, but the water in the river outside had turned red, and Lizheng also Tell us, the water in the two wells near the river has turned slightly red, but the color is not too strong, and no one in their village has any strange diseases." Mu Liuyun reminded others, "If you want to intentionally poison Others, that small village is ordinary and inconspicuous, why did they bypass them? I don’t believe in any Feng Shui theory, probably there is no need for that!”

"Is the blood-red water a way to mark mineral deposits?" Yuan Mu put forward a hypothesis, "There are no mineral deposits around that village, so they were not marked."

"The places where there are mines are poisoned, so as to scare them to leave their homes and move away quickly?!" Mu Liuyun speculated.

Shen Yu listened for a long time with his chin on the side: "I originally thought it was a group of charlatans, pretending to be gods and tricks, one group dyed the water blood red everywhere, scaring people, and poisoning people, and the other group pretended to be something big. The mage sells medicine to make money!

Listening to what you say now, I feel like I think too little and think things are too simple!Could it be that the same group of people did these two things?What kind of archmage just happened to help people detoxify by accident? "

Mu Liuyun shook his head: "It's hard to say whether the poisoner and the detoxifier are the same group, but there must be some connection between the poisoner and the one who changed the color of the water, it's definitely not a coincidence!
In the place where the water inexplicably turned blood-red, there was no sign of any people or animals being poisoned. Afterwards, the bandits were quickly discovered and reported layer by layer. This matter will be settled!
But if people were poisoned after the water changed color, then this matter would be much more terrifying. The local people chose to move out of fear, so it would be easier to deceive people if anyone wanted to do anything in this generation. "

After she finished speaking, she looked at Yuan Mu, and seeing Yuan Mu's brows were tightly furrowed, she quickly asked him, "Are you worried about something?"

Yuan Mu nodded: "When we were surrounded by people from Hanjiazhuang in that dilapidated courtyard, you also heard what they said. Do you feel that those villagers and households were instigated by the great mage and thought there was a reason for this evil? ?”

"I remember someone saying that it was against the way of heaven, and that's why they were punished by heaven." Mu Liuyun recalled something.

After saying this, she was also taken aback for a moment, and felt that the words were somewhat wrong: "I remember that these words were said by some kind of archmage, right? He said that it was because of this reason that he was so evil. , making trouble around?"

Yuan Mu nodded with a dignified expression, and Mu Liuyun's expression gradually turned cold.

Yuan Jia is a stubborn person, and he can't turn his head so much. Now he was confused: "Master, Tuiguan, you two... what's going on?"

Although Yuan Yi could only make a guess, he shook his head wisely at Yuan Jia: "Brother, don't inquire, let's just follow the orders of the master and the official!"
