Xiao Lingyue's heart skipped a beat and she immediately looked at the corpse.
One foot in the Northern Qin Dynasty is equal to about 33 centimeters. Li Bihuai's information states that he was five feet tall, which is less than 1.7 meters.
The corpse on the ground was obviously over five feet tall, at least 1.8 meters tall, and had a strong build and large bones. The most suspicious thing was that he was proficient in martial arts and had quite good skills.
"The Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six departments. It is responsible for the promotion and demotion of all officials. It has a heavy responsibility, so the management is the strictest. There can be no errors in the archived information."
Xiao Lingyue said in a low voice: "The wrong thing is something else."
She looked at Zhan Beihan in disbelief: "You mean, this Li Bihuai might be fake?!"
Zhan Beihan: "Do you still remember the things you used to deceive me and hide Beibei's identity?"
Xiao Lingyue had a flash of inspiration and blurted out: "Human skin/mask?!"
"That's right!" Zhan Beihan laughed, "Since he was poisoned to death, Li Bihuai's lips turned black and blood oozed from his orifices, which shows that the poison was severe. But even with such a strong poison, his expression did not change at all, and he was still...
Normal skin color.”
This is obviously abnormal. Unless his face is covered with a layer of something, covering up the real skin that should be poisoned!
Xiao Lingyue picked up the dagger and slashed Li Bihuai's face without hesitation.
The sharp dagger tip can draw blood when touched.
Following the cut, Xiao Lingyue took a dagger and gently picked it up. A layer of something as thin as cicada wings, like human skin, was picked up.
Xiao Lingyue carefully reached out and took off the mask, along with the short beard on "Li Bihuai's" face.
The corpse’s true identity in Lushan was finally revealed.
This is a strange yet familiar face, very similar to the mask of "Li Bihuai", but a little younger.
Due to the poisoning, the entire face of the corpse turned a terrifying dark purple color, and even had deep and shallow poisonous spots.
"It's actually human skin/mask"
Xiao Lingyue looked at the face belonging to "Li Bihuai" in her hand, and the strange things she felt before finally made sense.
She frowned and said: "The real Li Bihuai may have died a long time ago, and he is just a person who takes the blame. Because Yuanmu Town and Huangling are closest to each other, as long as someone wants to do something, they will not be able to avoid him as the county magistrate.
So I'm afraid that Li Bihuai was killed a long time ago, and Nan Yan's dead soldiers wore human skins/masks and pretended to be him and stayed in Yuanmu Town in order to cover the caravan!
So it’s no wonder that this corpse has the mark of the Death Soldier Battalion, because he is not the real Li Bihuai at all!
It’s no wonder that this man didn’t care about ‘Li Bihuai’’s mother, wife and children. He introduced Nanyan’s caravan to his home, and when we came to visit him, he took poison and committed suicide to keep it a secret. He never thought about his family.
Because those are not his family at all, and of course he doesn’t care about their life or death!”
Xiao Lingyue put down the human skin/mask in disgust, searched her body, and searched around the bedside room, but found nothing.
Zhan Beihan knew what she was looking for and shook his head slightly: "It is impossible for a dead soldier to keep the antidote for the poisonous needle with him, or in other words, they are not qualified to get the antidote at all."
Xiao Lingyue was a little worried: "The dead soldiers are not qualified, what about the caravan? They should be in the same group. They may have the antidote in their hands. I will go find it."
Zhan Beihan stopped her: "How do you find it?"
"The leader of the caravan must be a person." Xiao Lingyue hadn't finished her words.
The man interrupted her: "How are you sure that the person we met is the leader?"
Xiao Lingyue: ""
She choked for a moment.
Looking at Zhan Beihan's arm that temporarily sealed the meridians, Xiao Lingyue took a deep breath and frowned more tightly: "How will you know if you don't try? Anyway, 'Li Bihuai' is dead now. The news will spread early tomorrow morning, so we can alert the snake."
