Lin Suisui also understood very well that she and Lu Ze were refugees who had to leave their hometowns to settle down in the north.
She could know medicine, and Lu Ze could also be an outstanding hunter!
But how could they know so much about the secrets of those tribes outside the border?!
If they really revealed everything, it would be equivalent to incriminating themselves!
“Is there a way to find that devil in human disguise as soon as possible?!” Lu Ze and Lin Suisui weren’t people that procrastinated. He had never kept things from Lin Suisui just because she was a woman.
Lu Ze even discussed many things with Lin Suisui along the way.
Therefore, he naturally discussed the solution with Lin Suisui.
“In order to successfully disguise themselves, most of those Wolf Guards have practiced the Bone Shrinking Art since they were young. It’s difficult to find anything fishy about their appearance. However, the disguise obtained through this cruel method also has fatal weaknesses.
That is, the human skin is borrowed after all. Without vitality, even in such cold weather, there’s no way to maintain it for a long time.
Of course, if there’s a need, the shaman has a secret medicine to extend the human skin’s longevity. It’s said that the most successful example was the case where the lover of a shaman had another lover and had an affair with someone else behind that priest’s back!
In a fit of anger, the shaman executed his lover and let a Wolf Guard pretend to be her. Relying on the secret medicine, the human skin didn’t rot for decades!
However, under these conditions, I believe the Wolf Guards will not waste that precious secret medicine!”
Lin Suisui didn’t hide anything from Lu Ze and told him everything she knew. “Actually, I feel that this matter has something to do with the Du family!”
“Do you suspect that the female corpse just now might be one of the Du sisters?!”
Lu Ze immediately understood Lin Suisui’s guess. However, this was only a guess. He still needed evidence!
“Why don’t we test them?!” Lin Suisui blinked and suddenly had an idea.
“How?!” Lu Ze frowned. From the sly smile on Lin Suisui’s face, he had a bad feeling. His intuition told him that it was best if he didn’t know about this suggestion!
“Look, Du Miao’er has never given up on you. If the sisters hadn’t been replaced, if you request to see them with Du Ling’er’s incident as an excuse, they definitely won’t ignore you!”
The more Lin Suisui thought about it, the more she felt that her suggestion was good.
With this method, they could figure out the situation of the Du sisters without any effort!
He whispered to the little girl in his arms, “Since you know that the two of them have ulterior motives towards me, why did you still come up with such a bad idea?!” Lu Ze took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to throw Lin Suisui to the ground.
He only hoped that she could understand what he meant and leave herself a way out!
“What do you mean?! I think that this method is the easiest. Moreover, I know your ability. You definitely won’t fall for their tricks!” Lin Suisui didn’t feel the danger at all. The smile on her face was still very bright.
“Aren’t the two sisters of the Du family the most suspicious now? Coincidentally, Du Ling’er has just been injured. I’ll pack some brown sugar later and you can make a trip under the pretext of visiting her!”
“So you’ve even found an excuse for me?!” Lu Ze was so angry that he laughed. “Are you really not afraid that I won’t be able to come back after this trip?!”
Although he also felt that Lin Suisui’s suggestion was indeed a very good idea in the current situation…
For some reason, he felt a little suffocated!
“Then forget it.” Lu Ze’s anger made the smile on Lin Suisui’s face fade. She thought about it carefully and chose to give up in the end. “That’s true. This arrangement is indeed a little dangerous!
I heard that the Wolf Guards beside the shaman are all top experts. If anything happens to you this time, I’ll really regret it!
The Du family’s matter is not urgent. I think that after today’s commotion, even if we don’t take the initiative to look for them, they will come looking for us in the next two days. We should wait!”
“Wait for what? With me around, do I need you to wait?!” Lu Ze was enraged!
Was he really angry about this?!
Seeing that they had already reached his ox cart, Lu Ze put Lin Suisui down carefully with a straight face. He glanced at Lin Suisui, who was looking at him in confusion. Lu Ze snorted softly, then turned around and walked out.
“Hey, where are you going?!” Lin Suisui blinked. When she reacted, Lu Ze was already walking forward without looking back. She chased after Lu Ze and asked Lu Ze, who was already four to five steps away, in confusion, “Aren’t you going to roast the fish?!”
“Where can I go? I’m going to find the answer to your questions!” Lu Ze stopped and replied in a low voice before continuing to walk forward in a hurry. The direction he was heading in was where the Du family was resting.
“Hey, wait for me!” Seeing that Lu Ze really planned to go over and find out, Lin Suisui was a little anxious. She quickly jogged over to keep up with Lu Ze. At this moment, she could tell that Lu Ze seemed to be angry. She reached out to grab Lu Ze’s sleeve as she quickly apologized, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have let you take the risk! Don’t worry, I definitely won’t come up with such a bad idea again. Don’t be angry, okay?!”
“Is that what I’m angry about?!” Lu Ze stopped and turned to look at the little girl, who was looking up at him in confusion. Her bright eyes were filled with deep guilt, uneasiness, and confusion…
She really didn’t understand and asked him very earnestly, “Then, what are you angry about?! Tell me, I’ll definitely change!”
“…Forget it, let’s go back and roast fish!” After a long silence, Lu Ze looked up, then turned around and pulled Lin Suisui back.
“You’re not going anymore?!” Seeing that Lu Ze had finally changed his mind, Lin Suisui was happy, but she still felt that Lu Ze was acting a little strange.
“I’m hungry. I’m not in the mood anymore!” Lu Ze glanced at Lin Suisui meaningfully and his tone was filled with desperation. “Let’s go back and fill our stomachs first!”
