Chapter 372 The evil woman who used poison is not worthy of the imperial physician (38)
The servant who brought him here looked at Chen Yanchuan with a puzzled expression and asked with a puzzled tone: "Mr. Chen, don't you know where this place is?"
Chen Yanchuan looked at the numerous graves in front of him, his heart filled with confusion and uneasiness.
He slowly said, "I only know that I am here today to pay respect to your young lady's cenotaph."
The servant couldn't help but frown when he saw Chen Yanchuan's reaction, thinking that this Mr. Chen seemed to know nothing about the situation here.
Just as he was about to explain, he heard the other party continue: "But why are there so many graves here... It can't be that all of them are..."
Before Chen Yanchuan finished speaking, the servant interrupted him and said three times in a row, "Mr. Chen, please don't talk nonsense!"
The Baili family is not large, and the lineage is basically single-line. In this generation, there is only one son - Baili Zhen, and they even have very few daughters.
Even if all the people with the surname Baili were killed over the past hundred years, it would still not be enough to fill these graves.
Realizing that he might have said something wrong, Chen Yanchuan quickly apologized.
However, the servant did not care too much, but continued to explain to him: "Mr. Chen, you don't know that these are cenotaphs, not real burials of anyone.
You should know that our Muyun Villa is famous for its medicinal materials business. However, many precious medicinal materials have very harsh growing conditions, and some are even grown on cliffs.
The bodies of those herbal farmers who unfortunately died while collecting herbs are often difficult to find, so they can only set up cenotaphs here to commemorate them.
In addition, whenever there is a plague, Muyun Villa will arrange for many people to go to the epidemic area. If those people cannot come back, they will set up a tomb here to let future generations know their achievements. "
In fact, some people died in landslides.
Muyun Villa is surrounded by mountains, and in order to transport the medicinal materials, mountain roads are definitely not feasible, so there is a tunnel connecting the mountains, and vehicles can pass through it.
Some of the early tunnel diggers were buried in landslides, and since their bodies could not be found, cenotaphs were built here.
However, the servants certainly would not tell Chen Yanchuan about these things, they only told him what was known to everyone on the surface.
After listening to his narration, Chen Yanchuan suddenly realized that there was such a secret story behind these graves.
Seeing that he said nothing more, the servant took him to Baili Yue's cenotaph.
This place is not big. It seems that there is nothing else except a tombstone with Baili Yue's name engraved on it. Chen Yanchuan pursed his lips and asked, "Why is it so small?"
"Each cenotaph here has certain size requirements. We will not give Miss more space just because of her status." The servant frowned and said, "Mr. Chen, please hurry up! We can't stay here for too long."
"Please leave for a moment. I want to talk to her." Chen Yanchuan took out a piece of silver from his purse and handed it to the servant. "Please do me a favor, young man."
After taking the silver, the servant's attitude became a little better and he walked away.
Seeing the other person walking away, Chen Yanchuan took out the wild flowers he had just picked on the road and said, "Xiaoyue, I came to see you! But it was too hasty, and I couldn't prepare anything you like. It seems that I can't calculate the time correctly every time.
When you liked me, I didn't realize how important you were to me. Now that you're gone, I feel like life is so boring without you.
I am just a bitch! Actually, there is really nothing between me and my junior sister. She... Never mind. It's a rare opportunity for me to come and see you. I won't say these things you don't like to hear.
By the way, I have met your sister. She is nothing like you, not in appearance, but in temperament and personality. She is lively and willful, and a little reckless.
Now that I think about it, you have the same personality, but I have controlled you too many times over the years."
Having said that, Chen Yanchuan used his sleeves to wipe Baili Yue's tombstone very carefully. In a few moments, his white sleeves were stained with stains, but he didn't care at all and just wiped more seriously.
After an unknown amount of time, the servant became impatient and was about to come over to urge him when he saw Chen Yanchuan stop. Then he stood up, bowed to Baili Yue's tombstone, and waved to the servant.
"Let's go!" Chen Yanchuan didn't look back at the cenotaph, "Thank you for waiting for so long."
The servant didn't say anything else for the sake of the small change.
The two returned along the same route, and no one spoke along the way.
After returning to Muyun Villa, Chen Yanchuan took off the clothes he was wearing, folded them carefully, and wrapped them up again.
After that, he never left the yard again, but just took care of his father Chen Banxia's illness seriously.
Thanks to Huo Jinyi's superb medical skills, Chen Banxia's illness was almost cured in just a few days.
After resting here for a few more days, the Chen father and son were ready to leave Muyun Villa.
Before leaving, Chen Yanchuan asked Baili Zhen, "Can I borrow a book from your manor that records poisons?"
"What are you looking at?" Baili Zhen raised an eyebrow. "Don't you always think that this is a minor path that is not worthy of being in a high-class place?"
