The residue on the tongue was mixed with blood . How many people could notice that?

Zhou Xuan’s face clouded up . It was funny to recall how he mocked at Ye Qingtang previously .
They were looking everywhere for the whole afternoon to no avail, yet Ye Qingtang alone found out the hidden clues from such insignificant details .
Burden?
If she was counted as a burden, then… the rest of them could be called useless .
Zhou Xuan, who tried to make things difficult for Ye Qingtang, was embarrassed now . All the sarcastic things he said were punching his own face now .

“Junior Sister Ye, you are… good at… finding details,” Zhou Xuan said and gritted his teeth .
Ye Qingtang lifted her eyebrows and said, “Senior Brother Zhou, do you want to take the residue for further investigation?”
She moved the dagger with mucus closer to Zhou Xuan .
The foul smell immediately flew into Zhou Xuan’s nose . He stepped back to prevent any contact with the mucus .
“Junior Brother Liu, what are you waiting for? Keep the things here . ” Zhou Xuan tried to remain calm as he called one of the disciples at the side .

That disciple had vomited a few times by the scenes in the Spirit Condensation Mountain Village . His face was as pale as a piece of paper when Zhou Xuan called his name . His unpleasant face was a clear comparison with Ye Qingtang’s smile .
Junior Brother Liu could not help but go forward and take over the dagger . His body was full of goosebumps instantly .
Ye Qingtang smiled as she saw the unpleasant faces .
“Only some of the skulls here have Duanyuan Grass residue, and some are not obvious . If you want to look closely, you need to take their tongues…”
“Junior Sister Ye!” Zhou Xuan stopped Ye Qingtang before she finished her sentence .

He could guess what she was about to say .
The sect disciples here all came from prestigious families . They lived a comfortable life when they were young . Though they were requested to attend the mission, they would never use their hands to touch the filthy stuff . However, Ye Qingtang did not seem to be bothered by that at all .
None of the rest wanted to scale mucus down from the dead people’s mouths .
They could feel the goosebumps by just imagining that .
“It’s getting late today . We should not rush now . Tomorrow, I will ask the Apothecary to find someone to do that . We need to analyze other things as well . Since we have figured out that it was all caused by Duanyuan Grass, we should discuss the potential suspects who could have used the Duanyuan Grass . ” Zhou Xuan tried to speak in a normal way, but he felt constricted by Ye Qingtang’s behavior and words .
Ye Qingtang just shrugged her shoulder and did not say anything .
“Apothecary, please lead us to the place that we will be staying at . We will figure out the murderer based on the investigation today . ” Zhou Xuan looked towards the Apothecary and said .
“Yes . ” The Apothecary replied respectfully .
The Apothecary and Wu Zheng then led the group to their living place . Only after the gate of the Spirit Condensation Mountain Village was closed, Zhou Xuan and the rest felt slightly relieved .
