The next day.
The deaths of so many people at the Su family mansion caught the attention of the elder Mr. and Mrs. Su.
Under normal circumstances, these two elders never abused the servants in the mansion.
Among the three young ladies of the mansion, the eldest, Su Yu Xi, had changed her views on all men at present.
At the same time, she sought out the elder Mr. and Mrs. Su and recounted all her experiences at the Yi Jing Pavilion, including the words Gu Qian Ying had told her.
This led the elder Mr. and Mrs. Su to change their own minds.
As for the second young lady, Su Zi Rou, her thoughts had been occupied by Duan Xi Feng these past few days.
She had also reduced her abuse and beatings of the male servants in the mansion.
Furthermore, even when she did beat the male servants, she never harbored any intention to kill them.
Among those who died last night were not only male servants but also some female servants.
Moreover, their deaths were all gruesome.
Two hours later.
Gu Qian Ying, Meng Qing Hua, the eldest young lady of the Su family, the second young lady of the Su family, Ouyang Qing Lin, the elder Mr. and Mrs. Su, as well as Su Cheng, Su Jie, and others, were all gathered in the main hall.
In the hall were also the several dead bodies that had been brought in.
"They all died from excessive blood loss."
Gu Qian Ying examined each of the bodies.
These people all had the same appearance in death.
Their faces were pale, their eyes sunken, their skin stretched taut over their bones, each one looking like a "dried corpse."
"What, excessive blood loss?"
Everyone was shocked, and they all looked at Gu Qian Ying.
Gu Qian Ying nodded, and then she asked the Su family patriarch to prepare a dagger dipped in white wine.
Holding the dagger, she squatted beside one of the corpses and began a series of dissections.
Seeing this, everyone almost vomited.
However, Ouyang Qing Lin, Su Cheng, and Meng Qing Hua, who were beside Gu Qian Ying, all had calm expressions.
Especially Su Cheng, when he saw Gu Qian Ying use the tip of the dagger to cut open a corpse's skin, the light in his eyes was undeniable.
But he hid it very well, and no one noticed his change.
After Gu Qian Ying finished dissecting the first corpse, she stood up and washed her hands.
"These bodies show no signs of poisoning, nor are they afflicted by any蛊 (gu) poison. It can be confirmed that they died from excessive blood loss. Besides that, these people only had one wound, which was a bite mark, a human bite mark."
"What? A human bite mark?"
Everyone was extremely surprised.
The elder Mr. and Mrs. Su had never encountered such a thing and were so frightened that they both sat down on their chairs.
The others also looked at Gu Qian Ying. Meng Qing Hua spoke up at this moment and asked, "Qian Ying, are you saying... that all these people were bitten and bled to death?"
As he spoke, Meng Qing Hua looked at the corpses on the ground.
He frowned.
He had never seen such a phenomenon.
At this moment, Ouyang Qing Lin also walked towards Gu Qian Ying.
He noticed that Gu Qian Ying's sleeve had some blood on it, though he didn't know when it got there.
He took out an embroidered handkerchief and personally wiped it for Gu Qian Ying.
His action was seen by Su Cheng, who was standing nearby.
Su Cheng's eyes were filled with coldness.
It was obvious!
However... at this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the corpses on the ground.
No one noticed Su Cheng's expression at the time.
Even less did anyone notice the murderous intent rising in his eyes.
However, at this moment, Su Yu Xi, the eldest young lady of the Su family, who was standing by, noticed the abnormality in Su Cheng's eyes.
Su Yu Xi frowned. She always felt that the current Su Cheng was not the same as before.
She naturally knew that the current Su Cheng was not the Su Cheng of the past, and she also knew that the current Su Cheng's real name was Murong Feng.
But a habit does not change suddenly.
She felt a sense of doubt in her heart.
