C191 Uncle Guo Confessed
"If I had known this would happen, I would have told him all these thoughts from the beginning. Perhaps these things would not have happened." Uncle Guo looked very regretful.
"If I am not wrong, he said. Uncle Guo, you should have thought of this a long time ago, right?" Lin Yi asked, staring into Uncle Guo's eyes.
Uncle Guo nodded, "Yes. From the time you helped Han Ying force out the venomous insect and collected the dark red blood, I had some guesses."
" You knew at that time that the blood was mixed with Bloodthirsty Grass, right? " Lin Yi's voice was firm and stiff. His tone was filled with dissatisfaction towards Uncle Guo.
"I wasn't very sure at the time, so I didn't dare say it clearly. When I was sure it was Bloodthirsty Grass, I couldn't be sure who it was, so it was hard to say." Uncle Guo showed a troubled expression.
"You weren't sure. You almost made Han Ying lose her life, did you know?" The more Lin Yi spoke, the angrier he became. The angry look in his eyes made Faang and Han Ying feel scared.
Uncle Guo looked at Han Ying and Lin Yi guiltily again, not knowing what to say.
"Forget it, Mr. Yi. I believe Uncle Guo did not do it on purpose. He also has something to make things difficult for us." Han Ying spoke up for Uncle Guo, which made the anger in Lin Yi's eyes disappear a little.
"What exactly is going on? Tell me what you know now." Lin Yi said.
Uncle Guo paused and said slowly, "Well, if I don't tell you what I know now, I will be very sorry to Han Ying."
Then, Uncle Guo started talking about the Bloodthirsty Grass and the person he suspected.
"I specially went to the top of the mountain once, next to the Dragon Whiskered Grass. I also found ashes. I know that it was left behind after the Bloodthirsty Grass was burned. Even if the smell of the Bloodthirsty Grass was burnt, it couldn't be completely concealed. The reason why I didn't remove the ashes... On one hand, it was because I didn't want to help those people. On the other hand, I thought that Lin Yi wouldn't know what it was." Uncle Guo looked at Lin Yi in embarrassment.
"I really don't know where that smell came from, but that familiar smell... I won't forget it no matter what, so I told Han Ying about it. Until Han Ying remembered that it was the smell of the Bloodthirsty Grass. I started to suspect that you might have known about it from the beginning. "
Lin Yi did not avoid it and stared straight into Uncle Guo's eyes as he said.
"I have underestimated you all. You are indeed worthy of being Senior Feng's descendants, and you, who was praised as a genius by him." This time, Uncle Guo no longer avoided his gaze.
"And then? Who exactly is that group of people?" Lin Yi could not wait any longer. He hoped that the mystery would be revealed soon.
"Actually, up until now, I have only been suspicious. One time, do you remember that you said a black shadow flashed by and you asked me if I saw it?" Uncle Guo asked.
Lin Yi nodded. "The black shadow escaped in the direction of your house. At that time, I did not believe you said I did not see it."
Uncle Guo shook his head. "I really didn't see it at that time. I don't believe that someone would brazenly appear here to spy on you."
"Then why did you ask Faang to tell you about what happened the next day after Faang and I went to investigate and came back? You must not miss out any details about what happened that day." Lin Yi asked, not understanding.
"Because I need to know how much you know. I will tell you the truth. I suspect that it was done by someone from another village, but there is no evidence. Besides, there is a different meaning between being caught by me and being caught by you. " Uncle Guo said.
"What do you mean?" Han Ying interrupted and asked.
"They and I are both from Miao Village. If I catch them... Just treat it as if the internal conflict has been resolved, and if you catch them, they have done so many things to harm you, such external conflicts... I believe you won't let them go so easily." Uncle Guo spoke quickly.
Lin Yi nodded decisively. "Of course. Not to mention that they have been chasing after Han Ying all the way, I will not let them off easily just because Han Ying was infected by that strange Gu."
"So, I have always thought that I would catch their weakness and force them to plead guilty. Then, I would be the peacemaker and resolve this dispute." Uncle Guo shook his head and said helplessly.
"But according to the current situation, Uncle Guo, this matter is not up to you to decide." Lin Yi's tone was somewhat angry.
Uncle Guo knew in his heart, and he also nodded, "Now it is obviously impossible. Yesterday Aunt Lee's child was infected by the Gu. I felt that things have gone beyond my control."
"Forget it. Uncle Guo, I think you should stop thinking about settling this peacefully. Why did they harm Han Ying again and again? Wait till I catch them. I want them to give me an explanation." Lin Yi slammed the table and said loudly.
"Yesterday, Aunt Lee's child was poisoned. I thought their target was you again. Because you would not be able to sustain your physical strength after the acupuncture. I thought they would attack you while you were resting. Now it seems that they are trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain. " Uncle Guo rubbed his hands back and forth, seeming very uneasy.
"It doesn't matter what they are. Since they like to plant Gu on people, I will also let them fall for it once. Otherwise, they will think that we are easy to bully." Lin Yi gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"What do you plan to do?" Faang asked.
Before Lin Yi could respond, a stone flew in and looked in the direction of the stone. A black shadow flashed again.
"It's over. Did we hear what we said just now?" Faang also saw the black shadow. He turned around and asked anxiously.
"This is a piece of paper wrapped in stone." Han Ying picked up the stone and opened it to see.
"What is written on it?" Uncle Guo asked eagerly.
"It's very simple. 'There's danger. Leave quickly'." Han Ying read it according to the note.
"What do you mean? Is he reminding us? Shouldn't this black shadow be monitoring us? Why does it look like he's here to inform us?" Faang asked a series of questions in confusion.
"It's useless to think so much. Show me the note." Lin Yi reached out to Han Ying.
Han Ying handed the note to Lin Yi. "There are only these few words. What else do you want to see?"
Lin Yi took the note and looked at it. The words on the note were crooked and looked very ugly. It seemed that this person's education level was limited. The words danger seemed to be written by a few years old child.
"Faang, does Uncle Yongda know how to read?" Lin Yi suddenly asked a strange question. Everyone looked at him.
Faang looked at Uncle Guo and then looked at Lin Yi. "I know, but I don't know much. I don't think I read much. What's wrong?"
