The ancestor is here, she is here with space

Chapter 253 The elusive one

When the man saw the Tiger Token in Lin Congyun's hand, his eyes widened: "You...how do you have the Tiger Token?"

"This is not something you should ask." Lin Congyun looked at the man coldly, "Tell me, who are you? Why do you know about the Tiger Order?"

"I... I am..." The man opened his mouth, but suddenly closed his eyes and died.

Seeing this, Lin Congyun immediately stepped forward and felt the man's breath, and found that he was dead.

"Damn it!" Lin Congyun cursed angrily. She didn't expect that the man would die at this time.

Walking out of the dungeon, Lin Congyun's face was terribly gloomy.

She didn't know who this man was, why he knew about the Tiger Order, or whether there was someone behind him.

Most importantly, why did he die suddenly?

But now, there is no way to find out all this.

Nanny Bai looked at Lin Congyun's gloomy face and asked cautiously, "Second Prince, that person..."

"Dead." Lin Congyun spat out two words coldly.

Upon hearing this, Nanny Bai fell silent and dared not say anything more.

Lin Congyun took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and said, "Tell someone to dispose of the body and not leave any traces."

"Yes." Nanny Bai responded and retreated.

As soon as I returned to the room, Luzhu came over.

"Second Prince, someone is coming over there."

"Which way?" Lin Congyun was a little confused.

"It was the men under the command of those two men who just died."

Zheng Qianzhi and Chen Bo's men, what are they doing here?

Lin Congyun asked Luzhu to take them to the backyard, while he took off the second prince's human skin mask and changed his clothes before going over.

There were only two people who came. They were walking around in the backyard anxiously. When they saw Lin Congyun coming, they hurried over to greet him.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Congyun asked with a frown, looking at the two people in front of him.

One of them stepped forward and bowed, "Madam, we two brothers have something to report."

"Speak." Lin Congyun spat out a word coldly.

"My two brothers are Uncle Chen's men. We know who the man was who was caught in the ruined temple a few days ago." The man said cautiously.

Hearing this, Lin Congyun immediately became interested: "Oh? You know?"

"That person is Mo Yunqi..."

As soon as these words were spoken, footsteps were heard outside the yard. Lin Congyun turned around and saw that it was the Second Prince's men.

"What are you doing here?"

When Lin Congyun was not wearing the second prince's human skin mask, she used her real identity, Fang Deyong's mother.

This person did not speak, but stepped forward and bowed.

He saluted, but the next second, he suddenly took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed towards Lin Congyun.

Lin Congyun was prepared and dodged the fatal blow with a quick move, then kicked the man in the knee.

With a "crack", the man's knee was broken and he fell to the ground with the dagger falling to the side.

Lin Congyun looked at the man kneeling on the ground and asked coldly, "Who sent you here?"

The man gritted his teeth, looking as if he would rather die than surrender.

Seeing this, Lin Congyun winked at Luzhu.

Lu Zhu stepped forward, picked up the dagger on the ground, then grabbed the man's hand and stabbed his palm with one knife.

"what……"

A shrill scream sounded in the backyard. Lu Zhu acted as if nothing had happened. He grabbed the dagger in the man's hand and turned it.

"If you don't tell me, the next knife will be on my neck."

The man had never seen such a situation before and immediately became scared.

"I...I said, Mo Yunqi sent us here."

"You are not the second prince's man, why would you obey Mo Yunqi?" Lin Congyun asked with some confusion.

"me……"

Before the man could finish his words, he suddenly closed his eyes and died.

Lin Congyun looked at everything in front of him. How could it be exactly the same as the way the man died in the dungeon?

Could it be that they all have poison in their mouths?

Lin Congyun stepped forward and pinched the man's chin, but found no trace of poison.

How did he die without poison?

"Ancestor, what should we do now?" Lu Zhu looked at Lin Congyun's face and asked cautiously.

Lin Congyun pondered for a moment, his eyes sharp as torches as he scanned the surroundings, as if looking for some overlooked clues.

"Lvzhu," she called in a low voice, "Go to the city and find an experienced coroner. He must be a man of tight-lipped and skilled hands. This matter is of great importance and we cannot afford to be careless in the slightest."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhu immediately suppressed her fear and bowed, saying, "Yes, I will do it right away."

After saying this, she turned around hurriedly, and disappeared around the corner with light but eager steps, leaving behind only a series of tiny and firm footsteps, echoing in the quiet backyard.

Lin Congyun stood where he was, and turned to look at Chen Bo's two men, "Who is this Mo Yunqi you just mentioned?"

The two men were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They stammered and told everything they knew.

It turned out that Mo Yunqi was actually a martial arts master. He was very good at using poison and was elusive. They had only heard of his name but had never actually seen him.

Most importantly, this person is proficient in the art of disguise. The human skin masks he makes can accurately capture the expressions of people, even down to the texture of the pores. After putting them on, even the closest relatives will find it difficult to tell the authenticity.

Some even say that the mask can move slightly with the wearer's emotions, almost to the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing."

After hearing this, Lin Congyun slowly walked to the corpse, squatted down, and lightly touched the dead man's face with his fingertips.

Finally, under a strand of hair beside the deceased's ear, she felt a strange subtle texture.

"Sure enough..." She whispered to herself, with a tone of relief and vigilance. Gently but firmly, she slowly peeled off the disguise that was almost integrated with her skin - it was a carefully crafted human skin mask, so delicate that it was outrageous, with fine texture and natural color.

As the mask was slowly peeled off, the air seemed to freeze, and underneath the mask was revealed a completely different face, strange and complex, with the fear and unwillingness of his lifetime still seeming to linger in his eyes.

At this time, Luzhu hurried over with the coroner.

The coroner was an old man in his fifties, with a gaunt face and bright eyes.

Lin Congyun asked the old man to check first, and asked Luzhu to take Chen Bo's two men out first, and they would talk about it later if there was anything.

After the old man carefully examined the body, he said in a deep voice: "This person died of poisoning."

Poisoning?

When Lin Congyun heard this, a trace of solemnity flashed across her brows, and she signaled the coroner to continue.

The old man stroked his beard gently, his eyes lingering on the dead man's neck, finally fixing on a tiny pinhole that was barely noticeable.
