Chapter 9 A Severed Hand

Chapter 9 A broken hand

Author: Wu Zhuan

Chapter 9 A broken hand

A broken hand should be displayed on the booth, which should be cut off by a sharp weapon, with a neat and smooth cut, leaving a small pool of blood on the booth, as if it was freshly cut off.

Shi Ying raised his hand and compared it virtually. This right hand looked like a man's hand, with slender fingers, prominent knuckles, blue-white skin, thin calluses, and several old scars on his hand. Although he wore a gold-inlaid white jade ring, Shi Ying speculated that this was not a man who was pampered, at least he had not been in a pampered state of being pampered. He might have had a life that needed to be self-reliant.

The label on the booth only reads: Broken Hand.

Shi Ying surrounds the booth, looking at the square inch booth three times up and down, but not getting more information. I don’t know why the exhibition hall asked her to come in. I can’t scare her with my broken hand. Although she was indeed scared, there were not many. If it were just like this, the exhibition hall was a bit low.

Shi Ying looked at the vague exhibits in front of her, wandered for a while, or walked forward with her foot. She had to get more information to know what the mastermind was making.

The next exhibit is much more normal.

Ebony hairpin, introduced on the label.

The hairpin looks nothing special, and the body of the hairpin has no engravings, patterns, and traces of use, but it is not serious, and does not cause any scars or wear. The hairpin is very clean and does not stain blood or dirt from multiple angles. It is different from the fresh broken hand just now. It seems to be taken from a dressing box.

A plain hairpin, Shi Ying thought, it only takes 9.9 yuan to put it outside and it also has free shipping.

Shi Ying guessed that the hairpin might belong to the same person as the hand just now, but there was still too little information and she couldn't make a definite judgment.

Go forward further.

The third exhibit is very large, hung on the wall, looking down at Shi Ying high, the height and area it occupied bring a surging sense of oppression. The black, white and red color combination of the entire wall also impacted Shi Ying's vision.

This is a mourning dress, full set, with hemp rope and cloth shoes, neatly hung on the wall. The right hand of the mourning dress is a reddish-brown reddish after the oxidation of blood, and there are splattered blood on the body. It is not difficult to see that it is likely that the first broken hand will be the clothes worn when it becomes the first broken hand.

The style and material of the mourning clothes are very attentive, and they are fine-quality, and they are definitely not the grade that ordinary people wear when they attend the funeral. The size of the shoes verified Shi Ying's guess just now, and it was estimated that they were at least 43 in length, and they were probably not a woman.

So this is a man with a height of about 1.8 meters, living conditions and long-haired hair?

Modern men rarely use hairpins. Is this a Taoist priest?

What is the reason why the Taoist priest cut off his arm? Is it that he who eliminates demons?

Shi Ying's thinking began to run wildly in the direction of supernatural powers, and he could even come back from the dead. The umbrella was also consciously able to understand the words and would move by himself. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with the fairy Taoist priests and other things, and it was very reasonable.

Shi Ying walked forward with his mind full of imagination about the Taoist priests subduing demons and eliminating demons.

In front of me is a wall that is larger and longer than before. Four sets of festive auspicious clothes are hung on the wall, including Hanfu style, red and black color matching, exquisite embroidery, numerous accessories, paired in pairs. The label below has four words: Happy wedding.

Shi Ying's eyes were attracted by the phoenix crown in the middle. From her perspective, if the materials are genuine, such a gorgeous phoenix crown can be sold at auction for more than tens of millions.

The phoenix crown is woven with golden silk, and is decorated with six dragons and four phoenixes. It is full of majestic shapes and lifelike. There are flowers and trees next to it, adorning various gems and pearls of different sizes, and there are also flower ornaments covered with gems or decorate green flowers. Beads made of large pearls of similar sizes are decorated with drippings of color, which are full of brilliance and beautiful.

Shi Ying has seen many beautiful and luxurious phoenix crowns in various museums, but those have been around for hundreds or thousands of years. Although it is not difficult to see how noble it was from the current situation, it is covered with a layer of dust from time and the impact on people is not so strong.

This phoenix crown seemed as fresh as it had just been taken off the bride's head. When standing in front of it, there was a sense of shock and arrogance coming to face.

Shi Ying speculated that the identity of the owner of this phoenix crown is between the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine in the harem. The most iconic one is the decoration of the six dragons and four phoenixes. If it is the queen, it should be the nine dragons and six phoenixes that are extremely noble. The six dragons and four phoenixes are only a little lower, but they are definitely the best.

The wedding dress that occupies a large wall next to the phoenix crown is like a gold-adorned jade, with an extraordinary demeanor. There are also a circle of golden rice-sized pearls on the cheesy handkerchief. They are similar in size and round in size. The luxury is astonishing. The details are so noble everywhere.

On the other hand, the men's wedding dress on the left is also well-made and can be regarded as the best, but it only embroidered with gold thread and white jade on the black belt. The neckline and cuffs are embroidered with gold threads, and there is no beads and jade. The large pieces of the body are patterns with the fabric with the top fabric, without tattoos, and the jewelry is also lonely, just a jade hairpin and a gold ring. The ring is the first gold-inlaid white jade ring worn on the broken hand. The overall look is extraordinary, but it does not match it with the phoenix crown and robe next to it. It is not like a couple, but it is like a queen who has a minister.

The pair of wedding clothes on the other side does not have such a big contrast, which seems much normal. The owner of the men's clothing should be a general, with a festive sword next to the wedding clothes, showing the owner's identity. The owner of the women's clothing has no characteristics, and may just be an ordinary lady in the boudoir.

Although these two wedding dresses are not as exquisite and luxurious as the set next to them, they are also made of excellent materials, thousands of needles and threads, which shows that the maker is very attentive.

Shi Ying felt that if the first broken hand and the third mourning uniform belonged to someone here, it should be the owner of the least careless wedding uniform. The wedding uniform was not always pampered, and the wedding uniform was not treated with care. Instead, the woman's wedding uniform was extremely gorgeous. Shi Ying felt that she might have guessed something, which was really similar to the ancient version of the Phoenix Man, and who was the most famous and noble Phoenix Man in ancient times? There is no doubt that the prince consort.

This also just confirms Shi Ying's speculation about the owner of the phoenix crown. It is very reasonable for a princess or princess to wear a phoenix crown with six dragons and four phoenixes when she gets married.

There are four characters now. The man who is suspected to be a prince consort appears the most often. It seems that it is not a scene of Taoist priests subduing monsters. Taoist priests who subdued monsters will never get married, they are still princesses.

Shi Ying had a slight regret.

After repeatedly confirming that there were no missing details, Shi Ying walked to the next booth.

The name of this exhibit is: Choice.

The first thing Shi Ying saw was a pure white cloth, which looked similar to a 50-year-old Hada in the scenic area, and was piled up in disorder on one side of the booth. On the other side was a wooden pallet with a porcelain long-neck pot on it, and next to it was a matching porcelain cup, filled with amber liquid, I don’t know if it was wine or tea.

This familiar set meal, the white cloth that is suspected to be Hada is actually the legendary white silk. Shi Ying thought numbly, this is really a bloody palace. As soon as he discovered a princess and a princess consort, he came to the set meal for death.

It seems that the person who was sentenced to death chose Bai Ling to hang himself. Bai Ling's condition was obviously used, and there were still many poisonous wines in the cup.

I just don’t know which one of the four people who were sentenced to death, was one of the four people who just enjoyed the same slap, or a new person.

Shi Ying carefully observed the used white silk, and saw no traces of powder, nor did he find any other hair. However, even if he found the hair, he could not confirm the male or female. After all, the ancients, regardless of male or female, all the left behind may be long hair.

I have to say that this exhibition hall is really cruel. From the moment I came in, Shi Ying saw the only normal exhibits that were wooden hairpins and the four sets of wedding clothes. Nothing else was either blood or on the way to blood.

For example, the one in front of me was a blood-stained dagger that pierced vertically into a piece of letter paper. The blood stained the letter paper in a distorted way, and Shi Ying tried hard to identify the sporadic words that had not been contaminated on the edge of the letter paper.

"Chengzhi brother, I heard that the general left Beijing and went north, and you went with the army... I always remember Hengshan Academy, and our classmates... I went there long mountains and rivers, and it is difficult to meet again... Peaceful and smooth... My foolish brother Qingyuan paused his head"

It seems that this virtuous brother Chang is a classmate from Qingyuan and the general's younger brother. He followed the newly married general Ba Jun north. His former classmates sent him a farewell speech when they heard the news, but for some reason it caused a murder.

The bloody dagger is not good-looking, and the hand is tightly wrapped with coarse cloth. It is not like the jewelry of the powerful and noble family, but like a mass-produced standard weapon. I don’t know if it is the portable weapon equipped in the army or the legacy of the killer sent by other organizations.

If the exhibits here are all related to the prince-consort, then the person signed by Qingyuan is likely to be the prince-consort. From the wedding uniforms in front, we can see that there is another general, and most of the prince-consorts are civil servants and rarely follow the army to send troops to war.

Very good, there was another one named Changzhi and another one who killed him. The story became more and more complicated. Shi Ying thought of the word "parting" on the label in front of her.
