Chapter 20: Another Golden Phoenix
"Mr. Zhang, what's wrong with you?" Lao Wang asked a little teasingly as he approached the cement platform, but when he saw the rotting and sunken eye sockets of the dead body on the platform, he immediately lost his voice, and then turned around and walked out. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info muttered: "Bad luck, it's really bad luck, I get breathable outside." "In the blink of an eye, it was gone.
"Humph! I also laughed at me, I was just a normal physiological reaction at that time, not timid at all. Zhang Jizu didn't forget to brag at this time.
But Liu Sisheng ignored the two of them, still carefully observing the highly decomposed corpse.
"Little brother, can you tell that this is Zou Youkai's corpse?" Zhang Jizu stood behind Liu Sisheng and asked.
"The deceased's face is no longer distinguishable due to the decomposition, but the growth of his hand bones and toes can roughly tell that his age should be that he is an old man, and based on the degree of decomposition of the body, it is estimated that the deceased's death was about three to four days ago."
Liu Sisheng said while watching.
"It's still little brother, you have eyesight, it's all rotten and you can still see it so clearly." Zhang Jizu praised. "However, if the little brother's body is rotten, how can he test the injury?" Zhang Jizu asked again.
Liu Sisheng didn't answer, but took out a pair of gloves from the cowhide bag, but it didn't look like cotton or rubber, and then Liu Sisheng took out a small tweezer, Zhang Jizu knew that Liu Sisheng was going to do it, so he didn't talk anymore, just watched quietly. Liu Sisheng put on his gloves very quickly, and began to examine the head of the corpse inch by inch. It may be that the body has been stored for a long time, and some of the deceased's gray hair has already fallen out, and even those that have not yet fallen out will fall out with the small tweezers when they pass through, but this makes it easier to check.
Liu Sisheng turned over the rotten flesh on his head and forehead, shook his head slightly, and then said to Zhang Jizu without raising his head: "You help me turn the corpse over." ”
"Little brother, you, you said let me help?" Zhang Jizu thought he had misheard.
Liu Sisheng raised his head and glanced at Zhang Jizu, looking so cold under the reflection of the flashlight beam. Zhang Jizu shrugged his shoulders hurriedly, but looked at the rotting and disgusting corpse and made a mistake, and asked in a low voice: "Little brother, you, do you still have spare gloves?" ”
"Here you go!" Liu Sisheng took off the gloves on his hand and threw them to Zhang Jizu, and he wrapped two strips of cloth around his hands. Zhang Jizu put down the flashlight and picked up the gloves, this time he felt that the gloves were specially made, like animal leather, but they were very soft and smooth.
"I'll hold the head, you hold the corpse's leg, and then I'll turn it over at my command. But it has to be slow, it has to be light! Liu Sisheng advised.
So, the two of them first put the flashlight flat on the cement platform, and then Liu Sisheng slowly picked up the neck of the corpse, and then glanced at Zhang Jizu, Zhang Jizu held his breath and tilted his head, and held the ankles of the corpse with both hands, "Turn!" Liu Sisheng began to slowly flip the corpse while commanding, and at the same time, Zhang Jizu also turned the corpse in the same direction.
It's just that he made a mistake in his busyness, Zhang Jizu suddenly felt that his hand was slipping, and he saw that the corpse was about to lose control, and in a hurry, the thumb and index finger of his right hand suddenly grabbed the calf of the corpse's right leg, and the corpse held it, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Jizu's pick was too strong, and he cut out two holes in the calf and stomach of the corpse. Although it was through the gloves, the feeling of being in the flesh and tendons and being so greasy made Zhang Jizu feel like he had been electrocuted and instantly cold, Zhang Jizu hurriedly took a few steps back and let out a long breath.
"Don't be stunned, give me the gloves." Liu Sisheng's call made Zhang Jizu sober up, so he took off his gloves and threw them to Liu Sisheng, and he stood in place and was no longer willing to step forward. Liu Sisheng put on his gloves again, glanced at Zhang Jizu, who was stupid, picked up the flashlight, lowered his head and began to check the back of the corpse's head, and after careful examination for a long time, Liu Sisheng shook his head again, as if he had encountered some problem.
Suddenly, Liu Sisheng inadvertently found that there was an obvious scratch on the index finger of his right hand glove, which was Liu Sisheng's family heirloom deer tendon glove, and its significance had long exceeded the value of the glove itself. It must have been scratched by Zhang Jizu when he was turning the corpse just now, Liu Sisheng was about to complain about Zhang Jizu's carelessness, but in a blink of an eye, he seemed to think of something, and shouted at Zhang Jizu, "Come over and help." ”
"Little brother, what's the matter, do you still have to move the corpse?" Zhang Jizu asked with great embarrassment.
"Just come over and give me a flashlight." Liu Sisheng said, and then took out a small dagger from the cowhide bag. After Zhang Jizu heard that this time he was just asked to use a flashlight to illuminate it, and did not have to touch the corpse crawling with maggots, he plucked up his courage again and walked back to the stone platform.
"You look like here." Liu Sisheng pointed to the two holes on the corpse that were cut out by Zhang Jizu just now.
"What can there be here?" Zhang Jizu was inexplicable, but the beam of the flashlight still shone on the right calf of the corpse.
Liu Sisheng first used the thumb and index finger of his right hand to make a gesture on the hole, and after determining the position, he picked up the dagger and slowly slashed along the edge of one of the smaller holes. The flesh of the corpse had long since lost its elasticity by this time, and it was like cutting it on a piece of dead pork that had been stored for a long time, and it was a little slippery and a little crispy, and it didn't feel good at all. The dagger was slashed to a position where it did not fall half an inch, and Liu Sisheng obviously felt that the hard object was blocking the way of the blade. "This is definitely not a human leg bone, it seems that there are still discoveries!" Liu Sisheng was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't dare to use the dagger again, but used the small tweezers to poke into the flesh that had just been cut little by little, and after a while, he felt the tweezers touch a hard object again, and after the tweezers opened and closed slightly, Liu Sisheng slowly lifted the tweezers out little by little. Zhang Jizu also felt curious, knowing that Liu Sisheng must have discovered something, but he didn't dare to ask more now, so he held his breath and watched. Don't look at it as only more than half an inch deep, but Liu Sisheng didn't dare to be careless, he had a strong premonition that Zou Youkai's corpse must have hidden some secrets.
"Ahh How could it be this thing? As Liu Sisheng's tweezers were pulled out of the flesh of the corpse, Zhang Jizu shouted in surprise. This thing is too familiar to Zhang Jizu, because he also has an identical golden phoenix on his body.
