The member of the Golden Stone Society, who had just spoken, snorted coldly again when he heard this: "There is an ancient night script in the inscription of the owner of this tomb, what does it mean? Thousands of years ago, the country located in the Western Regions that is said to have the art of immortality, their words appeared in the Central Plains, and appeared in this tomb—what an astonishing discovery! This discovery itself is enough to shock the world, and if anyone can solve the reason for it, it is enough to make a name for itself and go down in history!" Now that we have discovered this inscription together, if we want to win the jackpot alone, of course, we can only crack this inscription before others - you know, honor and fame only belong to the first discoverer and the creator, and the second and third of these later ones are not valuable. We only discovered this inscription yesterday when it was about to dark, for the sake of fairness, we said that we would copy it together early this morning, and study it by ourselves after we go back, whoever studies this honor first is whoever, and the others don't want to be blushing, but Lu Ce didn't care about his faith last night, and ran to this tomb in the middle of the night to copy the inscription - hmph, in order to be famous, he is so timid on weekdays, and he doesn't care about it......"

"This ...... As for it?" Qiao Lezi shook his head, "Even if he came to copy it in the middle of the night, it wouldn't be long before you, what could he research in this half night in advance?"

"He can go first this morning after copying it first," the member said, "If you go back to Beijing first, you can first go and ask Mr. to help you borrow that ancient book in the palace, if he borrows the ancient book first, he will definitely not lend it to us again, with that ancient book as a reference, of course he will be able to study the results one step ahead of us, as long as the results are made public, that is the first person who is sure of it, fame and fortune are in hand, and no one can surpass him!"

Tut-tut...... Qiao Lezi continued to shake his head, the children now...... At a young age, he already values fame and fortune so much...... But you can't blame them, there is such an atmosphere in the official school, everyone is the second generation of officials and the N generation of officials, and they will all take the official path in the future, but there are so many official vacancies, there are always people who will be squeezed out of this road by others, so the competition is too fierce, from the moment they enter the official school, these children have to fight for the future, no wonder everything has to compete for the first place, this is not only for their own future, but also to glorify their ancestors...... The kids are so stressed.

Through what this person said, Qiao Lezi also felt that this Lu Ce was the ancient tomb that he entered in the middle of the night in order to copy the inscription in front of others, and then died of heart disease because he was frightened by the wind and grass because of his timidity, but because of Yan Zike's face, it was not good not to take Yan Xiaojiu's words seriously, so he had to ask these students of the Jinshi Society again: "Who first discovered the deceased?"

"We found it almost at the same time. They replied.

"The first one to come in is Senior Brother Ji," Young Master Yan Jiu's voice sounded slowly at the end, "The second is Senior Brother Lu, the third is Third Brother Wu, the fourth is Senior Brother Li, the fifth is Senior Brother Wu, and the last one is me." ”

The student who had a lot of opinions about Young Master Yan Jiu was surnamed Lu, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "It's just a matter of the front and back feet, it's hard for you to deliberately write down the order!"

"How long is the 'front and back feet'?" asked Yanzi, who had not squeaked all this time.

Only then did the surnamed Lu remember that Young Master Yan Jiu was the nephew of this one, so he hurriedly put away his unhappy attitude, thought about it seriously, looked at the companions next to him, and replied: "A few of us ran towards the ancient tomb one after another, and the difference between them is only a dozen steps at most, so let's do it in a moment!"

Yan Zike stopped squeaking again, and returned the control of the field to Qiao Lezi.

Qiao Lezi saw that this person was going to intervene in this case, so he patiently sorted it out from the beginning: "I already know the purpose of your coming here, tell me about the period from the time you entered the ancient tomb yesterday to the time after the incident, try to explain it in detail, don't omit anything." ”

A few people looked at Wu Huan, Wu Huan is the president of the Jinshi Society, of course, to answer on behalf of everyone, Wu Huan said: "After going up the mountain yesterday, we came directly to the ancient tomb, and then began to copy the inscriptions on the tomb wall, and went to the village chief's house to stay overnight, and found that Lu Ce was missing this morning, and it was speculated that he was in the tomb, and he was dead when he came." ”

"......" is really concise...... Qiao Lezi had to ask earnestly step by step, "After entering the ancient tomb yesterday, is Lu Ce different from usual?"

Everyone thought for a while, and shook their heads in unison: "No." ”

"Who have you ever argued with?"

"No, I didn't. ”

"Have you ever had a heart disease?"

Before entering the tomb, he seemed to have swallowed two pills to protect his heart. It was the student with the surname Ji who answered.

"Did he react aggressively or say anything special after seeing the Ancient Night inscription?"

"There's nothing out of the ordinary, right...... Everyone was very excited when they recognized that this was an ancient night inscription," the surnamed Lu thought about it for a while, "and then they were all discussing the content of this inscription, and no one said anything off-topic or unusual. ”

"When you left the ancient tomb last night, was this the situation in the tomb?" Qiao Lezi pointed to a table on the side of the tomb, this table was obviously not the original thing in the ancient tomb, he had already asked these people, this table was temporarily borrowed from the villagers, and it was used to hold some necessary things to study the ancient tomb, among which the paper, pen, ink, inkstone and other things used to copy the inscriptions were essential, as well as various brushes, rulers, rags, lampstands, The reference books and some small containers for collecting things, which were placed here when I entered the tomb yesterday, were not taken away when I left last night because I would come back today.

"Yes, that's when you leave. Several people nodded.

"What about the other things?" Qiao Lezi glanced at the coffin in the tomb, and secretly thought of a sin in his heart, he has always been opposed to the imperial court's blatant digging of people's graves under the guise of studying antiquities.

"Other...... It doesn't seem to be anything......" The surnamed Lu glanced at everyone and unanimously agreed.

There was nothing extra in this tomb except for the table and this coffin - all the people sent by the imperial court had already been taken away, and then there was Lu Ce, who fell to the ground and died, and the muscles on his face were twisted with fright, which made people very unbearable, but fortunately, his face had been covered with a cloth at this time.

"So, after leaving the ancient tomb, did all of you go directly to the village chief's house?" Qiao Lezi continued to ask.

"Yes. Everyone replied in unison.

"During the period between going to the village chief's house and finding Lu Ce's body, did anyone leave alone?"

Everyone looked at each other for a while, and the one surnamed Wu said: "I have been with Brother Li Xian from beginning to end, and the two of us can prove to each other that there has never been a time when they are alone." ”

The surnamed Li hurriedly nodded in agreement.

The surname Lu also hurriedly said: "I've been with Brother Ji, and I've been to the toilet a few times during this period, this, this doesn't mean anything, right?!"

The surnamed Ji also hurriedly said: "Yes, we have also gone to the toilet separately, and if we squat for a long time, there will be times when others can't prove that we are not alone, and we can't prove that we have anything to do with Lu Ce's death!"

Wu Huan said in a straight voice: "I can't prove it, after dinner, I read a book in the house by myself, and I didn't sleep with Jinghong until bedtime." ”

"......" Yan Qi glanced at Yan Xiaojiu.

Young Master Yan Jiu also glanced at her, and knew that this person had no lower limit to make up for his brain, and slowly continued Wu Huan's words: "I don't have an alibi, I will read by myself in the room after eating until I go to bed." ”

Qiao Lezi touched his double chin and pondered slightly: "The time of Lu Ce's death is speculated to be between the time of Yin and the time of Mao...... Do you sleep in the same room or in separate rooms when you go to bed?"

"The president is in the same room with Yan Pianran, I am in the same room with Brother Ji, and Brother Wu and Brother Li and Lu Ce are in the same room. The surnamed Lu hurriedly cleared up.

Qiao Lezi looked at Wu and Li: "Then what abnormal behavior did Lu Ce have last night?"

Wu and Li shook their heads hurriedly, for fear that dirty water would splash on their heads: "He is no different from usual! After chatting with us for a while after dinner, he turned his head and fell asleep!"

"Did you two hear anything in the middle of the night?" Qiao Lezi continued.

"Nope. Wu Li continued to deny, "Because we have to come to the tomb again today, we all rested early, and we didn't hear the slightest movement until dawn!"

Qiao Lezi turned to ask the others, "You didn't hear any movement either?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Qiao Lezi saw that he couldn't ask anything, so he asked his subordinates to take these people away for routine interrogation, and only the staff of the government and Yan Zi Ke Yan Qi were left in the tomb for a while, Qiao Lezi said to Yan Zi Ke: "How do you think this incident is also an accident, I don't know what the adults think?"

Yan Zike was looking at the ancient night text on the tomb wall, and said faintly when he heard the words: "Ancient Night Country, I also believe that there was indeed a zài." ”

Who asked you this!" Qiao Lezi looked at Yan Qi next to him with resentment, and saw that the kid nodded his head: "I believe it too." ”

"So this incident was an accident?" Qiao Lezi forcibly reversed the topic.

"Has Lu Ce's body moved since the incident?" Yan Zike's topic changed more thoroughly than him.

"No, except for the post-mortem movement, the position and direction have not changed. Qiao Lezi said.

"Are you sure there is nothing unusual about the corpse?" Yan Zike asked.

"I am sure that Lu Ce was indeed frightened to death, there were no external injuries on his body, no signs of poisoning, no signs of fighting or struggle in the tomb, no traces of the body being moved, and the tomb and its ear chambers, tomb passages, and the outer perimeter of the tomb were all examined in detail, and there were no poisonous or lethal substances. "Qiao Lezi's on-site investigation work is quite in place.

It can be seen from this that the only doubt that exists is that with Lu Ce's timid temperament and heart disease, why did he dare to enter the ancient tomb alone in the middle of the night. Yan Zike no longer stared at the ancient night text, and turned his face to stare at Lu Ce on the ground instead.

"Lust for profit!" Qiao Lezi sighed.

"Does he have medicine on him?" Yan Zike asked.

"Pretended, I swallowed two pills before I died, and I checked it, and there was no problem with the medicine. Qiao Lezi thought of everything he should have thought of.

"Isn't it good to swallow medicine?" Yan Zike looked at the servant who was standing next to him waiting for orders.

"Lord Hui, the deceased should have entered the tomb after swallowing the medicine, and before the medicine could be digested, the person was already frightened by the stimulation of Yan zhòng, even if he swallowed the medicine, he was afraid that he would not be able to return to heaven. He replied in a respectful voice.

That is to say, as soon as Lu Ce entered the tomb, he had already died of illness in a short time, if it was because of the frightening situation in this tomb, he could have turned his head and left immediately when he first entered the tomb door, but he had walked to this position, and had already faced the tomb wall engraved with the ancient night inscription, it can be seen that most of the things that frightened him were in this direction, but I have only seen the inscription and the vicinity, and no one has done anything to him, if someone follows him and intends to scare him, then the direction he is facing should also be the entrance door, or someone entered the tomb in advance, even if Lu Ce sees it, he should be frightened at the entrance, as far as the current situation is concerned, Lu Ce does not seem to be artificially frightened, but ......" Yan Zike said here, the corners of his lips were gloomy, and Qiao Lezi was shocked, "I saw something terrible." ”

Terrible things?Which of the things in this tomb can be more terrible than you?" Qiao Lezi turned his head and looked at the entire tomb again: "If you want to say that it can scare people, the only one left is the tomb owner in this coffin, is it ......?"

Haunted?!

As a law enforcer, of course, you can't preach strange powers, besides: "I have already had the coffin checked, and the nails are strong, and if you want to open it, you must have tools, and it will take a lot of time, and there is no secret passage under the coffin, and there is no secret passage or secret door in the entire tomb, so it is impossible for anyone to hide in advance, and it is not good to nail the coffin back afterwards, and the sound of silence in the dead of night spreads far away...... What are you going to do—you really want to open the coffin and expose the corpse?!" - —— hey—— stop, snake spirit!
