Chapter 312: Abnormality

Su Xiaolu could not understand. There was no corpse stench in the other rooms, but there was here.
The wooden planks under her feet were solid. Even if Minister Li buried his wife at home, there shouldn’t be the stench of corpses buried deep in the soil.
But in this room, she could smell the corpse stench.
Where was it coming from?
Zhou Zhi watched as Su Xiaolu searched. He was also searching. He touched the wall and walked very slowly. He said calmly, “Minister Li, this side room is not bad. This wall is cool to the touch. What material is this?”!!
When Zhou Zhi said that, Su Xiaolu touched the wall with her hand. She was also surprised and felt the coolness. What material was this?
Ordinary wood was definitely not like this.
It felt a little like jade, but that would not be cheap. This house was also so big. If it was a special jade, its cost would be too high. It was unimaginable.
Su Xiaolu looked at Minister Li curiously.
Minister Li lowered his head and replied indifferently, “This is just an ordinary stone wall. Madam and I are old. We can’t stand the heat and cold, so we built such a side room and stayed here in the summer.”
Minister Li answered every question.
He was neither shocked nor agitated, and he was wrapped very tightly, making it difficult for others to see him clearly.
Minister Li seemed to be fine.
After looking around, Su Xiaolu did not find any problems, and neither did Zhou Zhi. They could only leave.
Minister Li also sent them out respectfully.
As soon as they left the residence, they saw Huang Xingliang waiting outside. Upon seeing them, Huang Xingliang came forward and asked hopefully, “Your Highness, are there any findings?”
Zhou Zhi shook his head.
Su Xiaolu was also deep in thought. She had already decided that since she had not found anything, she would secretly come over at night. She did not believe that Minister Li would not give himself away at night.
After getting into the carriage and starting it, Su Xiaolu came back to her senses and looked into Zhou Zhi’s eyes.
Zhou Zhi seemed to know that she had some doubts. He smiled and said, “Lord Huang sat in another carriage.”
Su Xiaolu did want to ask this.
“Xiaolu, what are your plans next?”
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu and asked.
Su Xiaolu said truthfully, “I want to come and take a look at night. I smelled the corpse stench in the side room just now, but I didn’t find the source.”
Zhou Zhi was stunned. He lowered his eyes and said calmly, “Is the corpse stench very bad?”
He clenched his fists and hid all his gloom under his lowered eyes.
His legs would always be worn out. The corpse stench that Su Xiaolu smelled might be the smell of his broken legs. They were too fragile and would always bleed when he walked for a long time.
The last time he went to Qinglian Monastery, his skin was torn. Today, after walking a long time, they bled again. The corpse stench that Su Xiaolu smelled might be emitted from his body. They would always break and rot.
Su Xiaolu did not notice the change in Zhou Zhi. She pondered for a moment and said, “It doesn’t smell good. I smelled it near the bed. The smell fades away when I’m far away, but there’s nothing around the bed. After coming out, the other rooms don’t smell of corpse stench, so there must be something wrong with that room.”
“Do you think that Minister Li’s wife has passed away and he didn’t bury her?”
Su Xiaolu asked Zhou Zhi in confusion.
Zhou Zhi was shocked. He smiled and said, “That’s possible.”
Hearing Su Xiaolu’s words, Zhou Zhi knew that he was thinking too much. He loosened his grip and smiled.
Zhou Zhi looked up at Su Xiaolu and said, “If you plan to come secretly at night, I won’t be able to accompany you in. It’s too dangerous for you to go alone. I’ll let Jin Wu follow you.”
Zhou Zhi’s eyes were gentle. Su Xiaolu looked at him and he smiled.
This made it difficult for Su Xiaolu to refuse. She nodded. “Alright.”
Zhou Zhi was here on orders. It was only right for him to follow her closely. Even if she didn’t visit the Li residence at night, Zhou Zhi would have arranged for someone anyway.
Still, she wanted to see for herself.
The carriage stopped. Su Xiaolu came down and realized that it was not Ji Shi Hall.
Zhou Zhi came down right after her and explained to Su Xiaolu, “This is where I live. It’s almost dark. You should be hungry after a long day. Have a meal and rest for a while before going. I’m afraid you won’t have time to rest when you return to Ji Shi Hall.”
Zhou Zhi cared about her, and Su Xiaolu was not someone who did not appreciate it.
She didn’t refuse and nodded. “Okay, thank you.”
Zhou Zhi smiled. “No need to thank me. There’s no need to thank me for such a small matter between friends.”
Su Xiaolu did not say anything else and entered the residence with Zhou Zhi.
Zhou Zhi walked very slowly. The moment he entered the residence, two guards in black came over.
Zhou Zhi only gestured for them to leave.
Su Xiaolu said, “I’ll go to the toilet first. Where is your toilet?”
Zhou Zhi said gently, “Jin Qi, bring her there.”
Jin Qi gestured to Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu followed.
After Su Xiaolu’s back disappeared, Jin Wu, who was beside Zhou Zhi, immediately went forward to support him.
He squatted down and let Zhou Zhi get on his back.
“Master, should we let Doctor Wu take a look?”
Jin Wu carried Zhou Zhi back to the main courtyard and asked.
Zhou Zhi said calmly, “I don’t have the time for now. There’s no need for that.”
He still had to eat with her and visit the Li residence with her at night. He didn’t have time to deal with these damn legs.
Zhou Zhi refused and Jin Wu frowned. “Master, but you…”
“Silence.”
Before Jin Wu could finish, Zhou Zhi interrupted coldly.
Of course, he knew his legs wouldn’t be able to take it, but she was more important. He’d lost these legs already. If he didn’t have them, he didn’t have them.
And what he could grab on to now, he didn’t want to let it slip from his hands again.
“Go back to my room. I’ll just change.”
Zhou Zhi ordered coldly.
“Yes.”
Jin Wu responded.

Su Xiaolu came out of the toilet and saw that the guard, Jin Qi, was still waiting. She was feeling awkward when Jin Qi said, “Miss Su, please.”
Su Xiaolu nodded and followed.
This house was not small. When she arrived at the main room, delicious food was already placed on the table. Zhou Zhi was already waiting for her.
A guard brought medicine for Su Xiaolu to wash her hands.
After washing her hands, Su Xiaolu sat down. Zhou Zhi smiled at her and said, “I don’t know what you like to eat. Try these.”
Su Xiaolu also smiled. “I’m not picky. Thank you.”
The guards retreated, leaving only Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi to eat in the main room.
Su Xiaolu was also hungry. She picked up her bowl and chopsticks and started eating. She wanted to eat something casual, but Zhou Zhi kept picking up food for her with the serving chopsticks. He gently said, “Xiaolu, try this and this.”
Su Xiaolu did not reject anything he picked up. She was almost full. Just as she was worried that she would not be able to finish what Zhou Zhi had picked up for her, Zhou Zhi stopped picking up more food for her. She finished it all, just a little more than 80% full.
