Chapter 221 The scene of the tragedy
Everyone, including Gu Zhao and Qin Xinglie, were shocked by the scene before them.
Even some of the less courageous little cranes felt a chill coming from their backs and their hair was about to explode.
Tragic!
At this moment, the only words that popped into everyone's mind were these two words.
The entire backyard was full of bloodstains, pieces of flesh, and mutilated limbs—at first glance, the huge backyard was almost covered in various human body parts.
A gust of wind blew by, and the poplar trees all over the courtyard rustled, like a group of people applauding together, waking up everyone who was stunned in place.
Seeing the horrific scene in front of them, several inexperienced Xiaohe could no longer control themselves and threw themselves into the corner and vomited loudly.
Most of the other people's faces were pale, including Gu Zhao's, whose face was not looking any better.
Even Qi Si, who had just been quarreling with Xiaohe who was leading the way, arguing about what level of death was considered tragic, kept his mouth shut and did not say a word.
Gu Zhao's eyes fell on the corpse closest to her. It was a man in his thirties, with only half of him left.
Not half for the top and half for the bottom, nor half for the left and right, but half for the front and back.
The extraordinarily flat body just leaned against the grass in the backyard, with large swaths of blood smearing from under his body, dyeing the fallen leaves that had accumulated on the ground for who knows how many years into layers of dark color.
Gu Zhao looked for the other half of his body and found it in the grass not far from him.
Gu Zhao walked up to the corpse, and Qin Xinglie followed him, explaining to her in a low voice, "This man was split in half with a knife."
He squatted down and stared at the wound on the corpse. "A very sharp knife, a very experienced murderer. The wound was smooth and sharp. It came from the top of the head, without hesitation or pause, and it was cut to the end."
Qin Xinglie's eyes were fixed in a certain direction, where a blood-stained sword lay in the grass, with the handle clenched in a thick and thick hand.
On the other end of the palm, only half of the arm is left.
In addition to the marks of the sharp blade, the wound on the broken arm was also covered with deep tooth marks.
"Human teeth." The little cranes who woke up began to clean up the scene and check for traces. Xiaohe, who was following Gu Zhao, looked at the severed arm and spoke with a trembling voice, "But it's not the same person."
Everyone can imagine the scene. The owner of this arm held a big knife and cut the enemy in half fiercely, but he was also surrounded by others.
During the fierce battle, many people even pounced on him, pinned him down, and bit off his arms one by one!
Thinking of this, several little cranes couldn't help shaking their bodies, and they felt cold all over in the summer evening.
Gu Zhao continued to move forward, and the fallen leaves under his feet were all covered with large blood stains.
Finally, they all saw a dead man wearing the uniform of the Controller, a headless body.
The deceased was wearing Baihe clothes, and he looked like a man in his thirties.
The little cranes found his head in an abandoned dry well in the corner.
"Does anyone know him?" Gu Zhao asked.
Everyone shook their heads, but no one knew this Bai He.
Gu Zhao looked at the mangled corpses. The dead people naturally had no voice to speak of.
However, Gu Zhao has long known that he cannot always rely on listening to other people's voices to hear cases. He has long been interested in exercising his observation skills and broadening his horizons and knowledge.
So looking at the death scene in front of him that was like a Shura field, Gu Zhao did not feel panicked, but observed carefully and collected all the details quietly.
Just when everyone was busy surveying the scene, someone suddenly heard someone exclaiming.
After the initial shock, everyone is basically able to control themselves, so why are there still people making such a fuss?
Qi Si jumped up and rushed to the exclaimer. When he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but cursed in a low voice.
Gu Zhao had just walked over to a corpse whose stomach had been ripped open. The internal organs and intestines flowing out of the stomach were all over the floor, and flies were buzzing around the corpse.
Stepping on the fallen leaves and branches that were soaked in blood and discolored, listening to the creaking sound under his feet, smelling the thick and sticky smell of blood, and listening to the sound of flies flapping their wings, Gu Zhao frowned tightly.
Became a ball.
Such a shocking tragedy occurred in such a place, and there were many good soldiers among the dead. Is it related to the fact that Emperor Shouzheng was stationed in Longyoupo?
At this moment, she heard the exclamation and saw the frozen figure of Qi Si rushing over.
Gu Zhao quickened his pace, walked to Qi Si, and saw clearly the scene in front of him.
Beside the pond with a thick copper-green floating layer, most of the grass had been cut away, and after being trampled on, a flat land of more than ten feet in diameter was formed.
In the middle of this flat land, a figure knelt on his knees, his arms tied behind his back, and nine weapons stuck on his body, including knives, swords, daggers, and even bows, arrows, and wooden sticks.
What penetrated his chest was actually an arm, a clay sculpture arm.
The huge palm revealed from behind the corpse still retains the posture of holding the fingers.
"That Buddha statue in the Main Hall!" Gu Zhao whispered. She remembered that when she passed by, she glanced at the broken Buddha statue and saw that one of its arms was missing.
Although there is no comparison yet to see if it matches, Gu Zhao can basically determine that this should be the missing arm of the Buddha statue.
In front of the kneeling deceased, there was a simple incense table. On the table, in addition to the incense burner and the burned incense sticks, there was a heart!
Gu Zhao raised his voice and ordered, "Don't push everyone through!"
