Chapter Twenty-Eight: Graveyard Mystery Dementorship
As mentioned last time, Niu Er ran into the cemetery when he encountered a ghost hitting the wall, and a strange copper bell sounded in the distance.
It is not surprising to hear a brass bell in the village, where the villagers like to tie a bell around the neck of their cattle or donkeys, but it is not so normal to hear it in the cemetery.
Thinking of the picture he saw in the movie where the Taoist priest held a copper bell to drive away the corpse, Niu Er was so frightened that his legs trembled.
Suddenly, the brass bell stopped, and Niu Er stood in place for a long time.
But the strange thing is that after a while, the copper bell never rang again, and Niu Er slowly relaxed his heart.
He just wanted to get out of this place as soon as he turned around......
"You're here......."
"Catching you......."
……
Recently, all the police officers of the Jinji Town Police Station have been in a state of high tension, and there is not a single idler in the bureau.
No, a few days ago, the beast attack case in Xiahe Village was not over, and there was another cemetery murder case. The first scene of the crime was the cemetery at the junction of Xiahe Village and Chenzhuang.
After the police arrived, they immediately sent people to cordon off the scene, and sent police officers to visit two villages to investigate the identity of the deceased.
Hearing this, Captain Wu, who led the team, couldn't help but have a headache again, and said to himself: "Why is it Xiahe Village again." ”
The deputy captain on the side also chimed in: "That's it, why is this village so non-stop!" ”
The report was made by the grave keeper Lao Zhangtou, who died of his wife at an early age, and he had tuberculosis again, so he couldn't find a job to do the work of guarding the tomb, which was more than 20 years.
Although cremation is now practiced throughout the country, some old people in the countryside still believe that they will be buried in the soil, and that people must always return to the soil when they die, so the two villages decided to set aside one acre of land to build a cemetery after discussion.
It is said that they have been guarding the tomb for more than 20 years, and they have long been accustomed to dead people and other things, and it is not strange to see them, but all the police officers can hardly forget the expressions they had when they first arrived when they saw the old man's head, which was a kind of fear and despair that they had seen what a terrible thing they saw.
According to Lao Zhangtou, he got up in the morning and saw a large flock of crows hovering over the grave, so he ran over to take a look, but found Niu Er's mouth open, lying there flat, his pupils had dilated, and Lao Zhangtou, who had been dealing with the deceased for many years, concluded that this person was dead.
But it wasn't the corpse that terrified him, it was the extremely distorted expression on the corpse's face!
After the police investigation, they did not find fatal injuries on Niu Er's body, and there was no possibility of being poisoned, so they could only preliminarily determine a sudden death.
Wang Mu heard that there had been a murder in the cemetery at home, and he also hurriedly ran over. By the time he arrived, the police were ready to carry the body into the car.
"I'm sorry, this place has been cordoned off by the police, you can't go in!" A police officer said to Wang Mu, who wanted to walk into the separation zone.
"I want to see the corpse, I know your captain!" After all, in this society where officials crush people to death at the level of officials, Wang Mu thought that moving out of the name of Captain Wu might be able to bluff this little police officer.
When the police officer heard that Wang Mu knew his captain, he was also troubled. At this time, Captain Wu saw Wang Mu, greeted him from afar, and then waved his hand to the police officer to let Wang Mu in.
When he got to the corpse, Wang Mu stretched out his hand to uncover the white cloth covering the corpse, but was stopped by the deputy captain, but Captain Wu said with a smile: "Let him see, it's okay." ”
Wang Mu lifted the white cloth and saw Niu Er for the first time, Wang Mu had his own judgment, Niu Er was not a sudden death, but was scared to death!
Of course, Wang Mu knew in his heart that no one believed such a straightforward statement, he just said: "This corpse is strange, not a simple sudden death!" ”
Captain Wu raised his eyebrows, and seemed to be very interested in Wang Mu's words: "I want to hear about it!" ”
Wang Mu explained: "Forensic doctors generally determine sudden death first to find out whether the deceased has a sudden acute disease such as heart disease through a visit or dissection. ”
Captain Wu nodded: "We said that the sudden death was only the result of a preliminary inquest, and no trace of a third person other than the grave keeper was found at the scene." We have ruled out the possibility of Lao Zhangtou committing the crime. The next step is to transport the body back to the police station, where the exact cause of death will be given after the forensic dissect. But I believe that the final result must be sudden death from a heart attack! ”
Wang Mu sneered and said, "As far as I know, Niu Er does not have any acute illness, nor does he have any family history. ”
Captain Wu asked rhetorically: "There must be a reason for the sudden death of a healthy living person, according to your meaning, he was killed?" ”
"You can say the same thing."
"But our police investigation did not find any traces of people other than Lao Zhangtou and the deceased at the scene, do you suspect that Lao Zhangtou did it?" Captain Wu had obviously been a little impatient by Wang Mu's attitude.
Wang Mu explained: "Why does the murderer have to be a person? If the murderer is not human, wouldn't everything be explained? ”
Captain Wu smiled and said, "I thought that you, as a college student, would think differently from these ignorant villagers, but I didn't expect you to be so superstitious. Do you mean to say that the dead were killed by goblins? ”
Of course, Wang Mu could hear the mocking tone in Captain Wu's last sentence, but he insisted: "To be precise, he was scared to death!" ”
"It's been five years since I graduated from the police academy, and I've handled a lot of big and small cases, but it's the first time I've heard of someone being scared to death. I think Brother Wang is also a little worried. With that, Captain Wu waved his hand and motioned for the police to quickly carry the body into the car.
"Wait!"
A loud shout came from the crowd, and the crowd of onlookers slowly separated, and an old man with fairy wind bones walked out of the middle, holding a willow cane, walked outside the cordon and said: "I agree with this little brother, this person died strangely!" ”
Wang Mu fixed his eyes and saw that this old man was none other than the old man who had helped him pay the fare when he just went down the mountain to take the car that day.
Captain Wu saw that if the old man got in again, he was afraid that things would get more and more complicated, so he didn't pay attention to what the old man said, turned around and was about to walk into the car.
The old man was not in a hurry, his sleeves shook slightly, and he didn't know what to say in his mouth, and Captain Wu actually said in a ghostly manner: "Let him in." ”
The others didn't feel unusual, but Wang Mu saw something strange. Could it be that this old man knows how to dementor?
Spiritualism is a side door of Taoism, and the purpose of indulging the consciousness of others is achieved through some means. One of the most common methods is to use Gu worms, this method is transmitted from Miao Jiang, and the Gu giver will release the Gu worms he has trained into the brain of the person who is *indulgent, so as to achieve the goal.
The old man walked to the side of the corpse, opened the covering cloth, glanced at it, and said to himself: "The black qi of Yintang is so dignified, it must be an evil spirit." ”
Wang Mu, who had a keen sense of hearing, listened quietly and nodded secretly. Of course, the so-called black qi is a manifestation of the condensation of yin qi, which is not visible to ordinary people, and can only be seen by people who have opened the eyes of heaven with the help of Taoism or who are born with yin and yang eyes.
The old man then pulled open the deceased's upper garment, exposed his shoulders, and took out a small vial from his pocket containing an unknown liquid.
I saw the old man gently pour out a little liquid from the bottle and smear it on the deceased's right shoulder......
