Chapter 201 Watching the Burning Corpse and Hungry?
"Corpse? Is the person dead?" Hua Yanxi looked at Ye Yibai: "Does the matter of those three people have anything to do with you?"
Ye Yibai nodded: "I did it."
"Why? They don't seem to bother you."
"They talk dirty and it sounds annoying." Ye Yibai didn't panic at all when he was discovered. Instead, he said it matter-of-factly and leisurely adjusted his sleeves.
Those three lives were not worth mentioning in his eyes, but at that moment, he noticed Hua Yanxi's expression out of the corner of his eye, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, fearing that she would be dissatisfied with him.
Will she be disgusted by the fact that an innocent and simple person is actually a murderous and cold-blooded person?
"Well, let's go over and have a look."
When Ye Yibai heard this, he frowned: "What's so interesting about a few corpses?"
Hua Yanxi was helpless: "Although those three families were severely punished by your father, after all, they still have many connections in the capital. If they find the body first, there will be trouble in our house. We need to
In the past, corpses were destroyed and no traces were left."
"No need to bother, just leave it to them." Ye Yibai said.
"No, I don't feel at ease unless you see it with your own eyes." She didn't want to create complications because of a moment of laziness.
She doesn't have the ability to fight against the powerful right now.
Although the first-class Duke would still doubt the Fifth Prince's Mansion if he could not find any evidence, but without evidence, he could only stumble in the dark.
"Then I'll go with you."
The two then got into the carriage and left the house under the cover of night.
While the carriage was driving, Hua Yanxi asked, "Are those guards all yours?"
Ye Yibai nodded, and then explained: "Although they are my people, I have absolutely no other intentions. I am just worried. I arranged these people after you were kidnapped last time. They are just for protection, not for safety."
Surveillance, you are their master."
Hua Yanxi sneered: "I am the master? Then why am I the last to know that such a big thing happened in the house?"
Ye Yibai's expression was sarcastic.
Hua Yanxi and Ye Yibai followed the guards' guidance to an alleyway half an hour's drive away from the Fifth Prince's Mansion.
As soon as I got off the carriage, a foul smell emanated from the alley.
It's not the smell caused by corpses, but because it's dark and humid all year round. Some people living nearby dump all dirty water and garbage into the alley for convenience. Over time, this alley has become less popular. It's really a good place to hide corpses.
place.
"Don't go in, I'll have someone carry the body out." Ye Yibai said, winking at the guards.
Soon, three corpses covered with white cloth were carried out and laid flat at the entrance of the alley.
The white cloth that had just been covered with blood was soaked in blood, and the spots were all over it, showing how tragic the corpse was under the white cloth.
Hua Yanxi raised her hand to uncover the cloth, but Ye Yibai reached out to stop her: "Don't look, I'm afraid I'll scare you."
Hua Yanxi raised her eyebrows: "I can guess the situation just from the places where the blood has penetrated. No matter how miserable the corpse is, I won't be afraid."
Ye Yibai could only say: "I'm here, don't get your hands dirty."
As he spoke, he uncovered the white cloth, but only the upper part was uncovered.
Hua Yanxi confirmed the identities of the three people and nodded: "Burn them, don't leave any traces."
With that said, he took out a jar of powder from the space and handed it to the guard: "Pour this on the corpse. It will burn quickly. Be careful not to stick to the body. It is best to be ten feet away when lighting it."
After Hua Yanxi finished speaking, she stepped back and stayed far away.
Ye Yibai asked strangely: "Can you see the corpse, but not the burned corpse?"
Hua Yanxi shook her head: "That powder can increase the burning temperature. If the temperature is too high, it will easily cause burns if it is too close."
As soon as Hua Yanxi finished speaking, the guard over there who lit the fire just threw the fire stick over, and the flames suddenly rose up, like a fire dragon. Fortunately, the Qinggong was good, but it was burned due to fever.
Ye Yibai suddenly stretched out his hand and held Hua Yanxi's arm, using his knuckles hard.
Hua Yanxi frowned and was about to shake it off when she saw Ye Yi's white eyes staring closely at the fire and her body becoming a little stiff.
Hua Yanxi then remembered that Ye Yibai had been burned and almost died in the fire. Judging from his appearance, it should be a typical post-traumatic syndrome, which is a psychological disorder.
Hua Yanxi did not shake him away, but instead raised her hand and gently combed his back from top to bottom to soothe his emotions.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention it.
In less than half an hour, the body was burned to ashes, and the walls on both sides were burned to a pitch black. Fortunately, the alleyway was damp and the fire did not spread.
After putting out the fire, several guards went to deal with the ashes.
Only then did Ye Yibai come back to his senses, and was shocked to realize that he had been holding Hua Yanxi's hand just now. He was already practicing martial arts, and he was worried that the action just now had pinched her, so he was about to lift her sleeves to check, when he
I heard Hua Yanxi say quietly: "I'm so hungry."
Ye Yibai suddenly looked at her in shock: "What did you say?"
Hua Yanxi looked at him and repeated, "I said, am I hungry?"
The expression on Ye Yibai's face became more and more difficult to describe. He looked at Hua Yanxi and then at the alley: "Are you hungry after staring at the burning corpse?"
What kind of woman is this? It doesn’t matter if she’s not afraid, but she can still starve her when she’s hungry?
Did she think it was roast chicken and duck?
It doesn't smell good either. Can this also arouse appetite?
Hua Yanxi had been busy all day and had not eaten dinner at this hour. When she realized this, she suddenly felt that her chest was touching her back.
Hearing Ye Yibai's question, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and her head was covered with black lines: "I have been hungry for a long time, and it's not because you and your father are messing around one after another. I don't even have time to eat."
"Well, then go back quickly. I'll ask Ah Ying to take a shortcut and go back to order the servants to prepare meals."
When he returned, Ye Yibai sat on the carriage and drove the carriage himself, which was much faster.
When he arrived at the door, Ye Yibai jumped out of the carriage first. When Hua Yanxi came out, he directly stretched out his hands to pull her into his arms and ran towards the house.
Hua Yanxi was stunned. It took her a long time to react and asked him, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Aren't you hungry? I'm afraid you won't be able to walk, so I'll run fast to save you time."
"Then, there's no need to be so hasty."
"You're welcome."
She really wasn't being polite.
When they were in the hall, Ye Yibai put her down and placed the chopsticks and dishes for her with great care, and kept picking them up with a frighteningly attentive attitude.
No matter how hungry Hua Yanxi is, she can't finish all these dishes in one sitting.
Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Hua Yanxi said in a deep voice: "Ye Yibai, can you be normal?"
"I'm normal."
"Then please do as usual. You can do whatever I want. You don't have to do this. I'm not used to it."
