"For that kind of disease, patients would choose not to wear shoes, or wear two-toothed clogs with transparent front and back, in order to ventilate the air. But this set of footprints was clearly left by ordinary cloth shoes." Gong Lianxue gave Li Qingcha a cold look. What a foolish senior brother, he knows so many things, but he doesn't even know about beriberi. She leaned over and lowered her voice. "Brother, the beriberi I'm talking about is called Lijie." Lijie, sounds like joint pain, Li Qingcha suddenly realized. The ancients classified a disease into a large category, such as gynecological diseases, pediatric diseases, and spleen and stomach diseases. Gout was classified into athlete's foot, which didn't seem to be surprising. For gout patients, ankle pain is a common symptom, and they will indeed develop the habit of walking with one foot deep and the other shallow. In history, Genghis Khan suffered from gout and was terribly tortured by the disease in his later years.
"Didn't you just say that it's very rare for a monk to sprain an injury, so how could they have gout... and athlete's foot?" Li Qingcha asked puzzled. "First of all, cultivators are not immune to all diseases." Gong Lianxue said, "Secondly, you just said that old habits die hard. There are many disciples in Yue Sect who transferred from the outer sect to the inner sect. They used to suffer from..." "Oh, I see." "Why!?" The girl was interrupted and was a little dissatisfied. She pouted and wanted to say something to the stupid senior brother, but she found that the stupid senior brother was looking at the master seriously. "..." "..." The silence speaks. Chapter 129 I don't need to ask you any questions Gout is known as a "rich man's disease" and is likely to occur in people who consume a lot of fish, meat, and various sugars. In addition, as a metabolic disease, staying up late and drinking are also causative factors. There is no doubt that prostitutes meet these requirements. There are many brothels and mansions in Yuezong's industry. After the courtesans went from "the young men of Wuling vying for hairpins" to "the gates were deserted and horses were scarce", some of them got married and some became the managers of the young courtesans (madams). Of course, there are also a small number of people who can enter the realm of cultivation and become disciples of Yuezong. When Li Qingcha heard Gong Lianxue mention gout, he vaguely felt that this was going to be troublesome. She squatted down and carefully observed the footprints again. "Tsk... that's quite a lot of information." "What information?" Gong Lianxue asked.
"..." Li Qingcha did not answer, but stood up and looked at Gong Yihan. Gong Yihan's expression was slightly solemn. "..." "..." The silence lasted for some time. Li Qingcha said: "Master, the footprints are not absolute and can only serve as circumstantial evidence. If we want to investigate thoroughly, the most important thing is to find the starting point of the fire and the source of the explosion." Gong Yihan said: "I just heard you mention 'explosion' once, why do you feel that way?" "This……" Li Qingcha was a little uncomfortable explaining. The main reason was that she smelled a strong smell of chemicals when she entered the yard. She turned her eyes and said, "It's like this, I just heard a loud noise in my room, so I went out to check." "Ah, that one you're talking about..." "???" "That was me breaking the beams and blocking the flames before putting out the fire with water." "..." Li Qingcha's face was confused. Hey! It's too ridiculous to say that he broke the beam so lightly, as if he didn't use any strength at all. Seeing that she was silent, Gong Yihan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "I'll gather the suspects and you'll interrogate them. There shouldn't be any problem, right?" "I am an outsider..." "When I give an order, no one in the sect dares to disobey. You don't have to worry about being gossiped about." "That's...ok." Gong Yihan left. Xiang Nanyu looked over with some concern. Gong Lianxue was carefree, "Brother, don't worry. With Master's support, you will definitely be able to find the criminal." I’m just afraid that your master won’t support me…
The victim, Xiang Nanyu, is a leader of the younger generation of the Ri Sect. If the criminal is really from the Yue Sect, things will become complicated. Of course, these words cannot be said explicitly. Li Qingcha changed the subject: "Lianxue, how did you know about athlete's foot?" Gong Lianxue tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering, "I saw that some of my older junior sisters like to soak their feet in hot water, so I asked. I've never seen it before, so I can't help but be curious." “Hmm… I see…” "It seems very painful to have this disease." "Since it can force a person to change his walking habits, of course it's painful." The two of them chatted one after another. Not long after, a disciple came to call Li Qingcha, saying that Gong Yihan had gathered the suspects together. Li Qingcha took a deep breath and let the other party lead the way. They went to the palace together. The disciple stopped Xiang Nanyu, "Senior Sister Xiang, please wait a moment." I knew it would be like this. Xiang Nanyu certainly wouldn't force his way in. He just nodded to Li Qingcha and whispered, "Brother, do what you can." Li Qingcha understood. She and Gong Lianxue boarded the pleasure boat and entered the main cabin. The lights in the main cabin were dim. Three female disciples sat awkwardly on one side, while Gong Yihan sat opposite them. There was a layer of frost on her face, and she no longer had the charm she had during the day. This atmosphere... "Gu..." Li Qingcha swallowed his saliva. Gong Yihan looked over and nodded. "Qingcha, let's start." Afterwards, she said to the three female disciples, "This is Senior Brother Li Qingcha from your Huajian Sect. He is extremely good at criminal law and has solved many major cases. So, don't hide anything from him." The implication is that it is impossible to hide it. Being praised so highly, Li Qingcha felt a little embarrassed. She said, "Actually, I don't need to ask you any questions, I just need to...ah...take your footprints." As she spoke, she looked around, searching the main cabin.
"What are you looking for?" Gong Yihan asked. “Rice paper.” "That's easy. We also have pen and ink." Gong Yihan took out a pen and ink from the small cabinet behind the main seat and handed it to Li Qingcha. Previously, after discussion, it was believed that the prisoner had the habit of supporting himself with his right foot, which resulted in the footprints being deeper on the right and lighter on the left. But how can you tell the depth by stepping on rice paper which has no thickness? Gong Yihan was very curious. Li Qingcha asked three disciples to take off their shoes and leave footprints on rice paper. After that, she looked at the footprints and thought for a moment. "They're the same size..." "Of course they are the same," Gong Lianxue said, "It's impossible to customize shoes for everyone, so the uniforms are the same style and there are only a few sizes. You should know that." "Why should I know?" "Didn't you come up with an idea before, asking the girls in Yicui Tower to..." "Cough cough..." Li Qingcha interrupted the other party with a cough. puff~ Gong Yihan chuckled, but quickly suppressed his laughter and added, "All sects are like this, which is why I was able to find the three of them quickly. Their shoe sizes match the footprint." Li Qingcha looked at the three nervous female disciples again. "Why, is it difficult?" Gong Yihan asked. "No, this is actually easier." Li Qingcha replied, "The footprints at the scene clearly showed the characteristics of small feet wearing big shoes, and among the three of them..." There was no further talk after that. Gong Yihan was stunned. Only then did he realize that Li Qingcha left footprints on the surface in order to observe the feet of the three people. Such scheming can be said to be deep. Li Qingcha continued, "In fact, I noticed something strange when I looked at the footprints just now. I originally thought that the footprints were deformed due to the water flow during the firefighting, but now I realize that there is another reason." She turned around and asked Gong Lianxue: "Lianxue, what would happen if you wore shoes that were bigger than your feet?" Gong Lianxue blushed. Stupid senior brother, actually asked a girl’s privacy like this, isn’t that being a hooligan? She rolled her eyes at Li Qingcha, then answered, "If the shoes don't fit my feet, then... well... in order to prevent the shoes from falling off, my heels will lean back as far as possible."
Li Qingcha nodded. "Yes, this will cause the heel of the footprint to land heavily, which is very obvious." Gong Lianxue's eyes were filled with memories. Just now, Li Qingcha said there was information, it should be because of this. "You knew this all along?" "How is that possible?" Li Qingcha shook his head. "I just felt it was strange and didn't think about it in terms of big shoes for small feet."
