3 Desperate Cards
Gao Sheng couldn't hold back his chatter as soon as he opened it: "What about innate talent? Which of our Ming Dynasty's sixth-grade military attachés and above is not innately cultivated, and which civil servant is not a top-three Jinshi. It is said that the innate true energy of the military attachés can kill demons.
Demons, the awe-inspiring righteousness of civil servants suppressed evil and exorcised evil spirits. Of the five county magistrates in Zhenshui County, three were civil servants and two were martial officers. In the end, no one was left alive. Especially the two generals at the back, not only died themselves,
More than three hundred soldiers were sent in. I only brought this monkey-like master with me. Do I dare to go in?"
The more Gao Sheng talked, the more excited he became: "Look at those government officials outside. If I hadn't spent a lot of money, they would never come back to work as errands. People make money when they are officials. When I am an official, I not only lose money, but I also have to pay for my life if I don't do it."
.”
Mei Xin'er laughed and said: "You are so afraid of death that you still want to be an official?"
"If I didn't have to, the bastard would have come here!" Gao Sheng cursed loudly: "I have been waiting for a vacancy to be filled for five years, and finally I got a vacancy, but it was a stupid vacancy, and it was a dead vacancy. Those bastards in the official department must say that I am
Hong Fu Qi Tian’s fate, I’m sure that everything will be fine when I come. It’s fine, his grandma is just a claw!”
Xie Bangui suddenly said: "How did your previous predecessors die?"
"They won't tell!" Gao Sheng pointed at the government officials outside the door and said through gritted teeth: "These guys are so frightened that they don't even dare to say anything. If they continue to push me, they will throw down the rake and quit. I'm here
Now I still have a black eye."
Xie Bangui asked: "Are those people's bodies still there?"
Lao Qian said: "The previous county magistrate Gao Chongyue died less than half a month ago. His body should still be there. I don't know about the others."
"Let's go and have a look!" Xie Bangui took the lead and walked out without saying a word.
Mei Xin'er pouted and followed behind: "What's there to see about the dead?"
"Perhaps we can find some clues. At least we can deduce the level of evil things. Low-level evil things can only confuse people and make people die. High-level evil things, even those that are successful in cultivation, are different. They can harm people.
His methods are various and he can even break into government offices and Taoist temples in broad daylight."
While they were talking, the group of people had already arrived at the gate of Yizhuang. The corpses of Gao Chongyue and more than two hundred elite soldiers were stretched out on the ground of Yizhuang for dozens of feet. Although the corpses did not stink, they were lying stiffly under the white cloth. What?
It makes people shudder at first glance.
Xie Bangui walked to Gao Chongyue's body and said, "Looking at the bones, his cultivation should be pretty good?"
"You are new to Xiantian." Lao Qian said: "With the sword passed down from your family, you will generally not be an opponent in the middle stage of Xiantian."
Xie Bangui waved his hands and said: "After the warrior's body has been combed by the innate true energy, it will become extremely strong. Even if you use a horse, you can't pull your hands and feet. But this person died of the 'Five Horses Dismemberment'. It seems that the thing he used is unusual!"
"
Xie Bangui fiddled with the corpse and said, "Has any of the nearby villagers heard the sounds of fighting or screams?"
"No!" Lao Qian said with certainty, "I asked them, and they said they heard nothing but the sound of water and wind."
Before Xie Bangui could say anything, Mei Xin'er on the side spoke first: "It seems like these people were all hanged?"
"He was hanged."
"Is there any difference? It's not all strangulation."
Xie Bangui shook his head and said: "It's different. The neck bones of people who hang themselves will not be broken. Even if they are broken, they will not be broken so badly. Look at the necks of these corpses. The neck bones are all broken, and some even have a layer of skin left.
Connected. Only after the neck is strangled and the rope is tightened hard can such wounds be caused."
"What is this?" Xie Bangui's fingers stopped on the back of a sergeant's neck. There was a five-inch arrow-shaped mark printed on the man's neck. There was a red circle drawn near the top of the mark.
.
Lao Qian smashed his lips and said, "It looks like the death card stuck behind the back of a death row prisoner."
Xie Bangui pulled off the sergeant's belt and took a look at it, then leaned close to the mark and examined it for a long time, then threw the belt to Mei Xin'er: "See for yourself!"
Mei Xin'er was surprised and said: "The name on the belt is Captain Wang Xiaowu... Hey, there is a word on the mark, guilty, Wang Xiaowu. How could it be?"
After Xie Bangui looked at a dozen sergeants, he looked at Gao Sheng with burning eyes.
Gao Sheng was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Brother, don't look at me like that, I feel terrible."
Xie Bangui walked over in a few steps: "Let me see your neck."
"Don't...brother..." Gao Sheng was already crying when he lowered his head: "Brother, is there something on my neck?"
"No!"
"Fortunately, no! Thank God." Gao Sheng wiped his cold sweat and said: "Old Qian, come here, let me take a look at you."
Lao Qian waved his hands and said: "How can I have it? How can I have it? We all came together and you don't have it, so how can I have it?"
Gao Sheng scratched his head and said, "That's right."
Xie Bangui said: "What about those people in the past? They didn't either."
"You have to ask Zuo Zuo or Lao Chen who collected the body about this." Lao Qian volunteered, "Let's go and I will take you to find him."
There were so many things going on in the Zhenshui County Government Office that no one dared to live near the County Government Office. Wu Zuo and Lao Chen lived not close to the County Government Office, and it was already past noon when Xie Bangui and the others arrived.
Before Xie Bangui entered the courtyard, he saw two pairs of feet swaying back and forth on the ground from outside the ajar door. Looking up along the shadows, he saw Zuo Zuo and the body collector hanging on the left and right from the poplar tree in the yard.
.
The corpse's face was livid, his teeth were clenched, and bright red blood dripped from the corners of his mouth onto the front of his clothes, staining the tops of the two people red.
The wine and food placed on the table in the courtyard were still warm, and there were sporadic blood stains on the plates. A mouthful of wine mixed with blood was sprayed out far away.
Gao Sheng's face turned pale: "This... this is..."
"Wu Zuo is on the left, and the old man is on the right. The two were drinking, but they were strangled by a rope flying in from the wall. Wu Zuo was strangled before he could finish a sip of wine, and blood and wine spurted onto the old man's face.
Above. Two people were lifted up with their necks broken almost in an instant. Well, it should be lifted straight up and down. If there is a drag, the food and wine on the table should not have any traces of collision. People will fly over and knock them down.
The bench fell to the ground, so the place where the bench fell to the ground is not far from the table." Old Qian acted as a co-worker, analyzing the murder scene bit by bit.
Xie Bangui, however, kept holding his shoulders and looking up at the sky. After a long while, he said: "Put the bodies down and see if there are any imprints of the death card on the back of their necks and if there is anything in their mouths."
"I'll do it, I'll do it..." Gao Sheng volunteered: "How can I do such a rough job as laying out corpses? How can I work for my little girl?"
Mei Xin'er blinked and said, "Why aren't you scared anymore?"
"I'm not afraid of things I can see. What I'm afraid of is invisible things." Gao Sheng said extremely seriously: "Death is not scary. Even if you look at a knife and chop my head, I won't be afraid. I am afraid of death for no reason.
! Think about it, there is nothing around you, but you are suddenly strangled by the neck, and you don’t know what is strangling you before you die. Are you afraid? "
"It's a bit scary!" Mei Xin'er also shuddered: "Come and watch! Let's leave as soon as we're done. I don't want to stay any longer."
After looking at the body carefully, Lao Qian said: "There is a death sign mark on the back of the neck. There is nothing in the mouth, but the tongue and teeth are broken. It seems that he bit something before he died."
