Chapter 63: The Mystery of the Dead Body Goes Late at Night

Then he called for an autopsy, and he walked in front of the two corpses and carefully observed the wound on the neck of the female corpse, and the skin around the neck was jet black, as if he had been poisoned. Look at the male corpse again, only the upper body, the lower body is missing, and there are still remnants of broken flesh and blood around him, he was stunned when he saw this, took a few steps back, did he know anything, and showed a panicked look.

"What did you find?" Gongzi Qi stepped forward and looked at the servant.

"Dead bodies, dead bodies," said the pretend, panicking.

"Are you talking about the murderer?" Gongzi Qi asked puzzled.

He turned around and looked at Gongzi Qi, his eyes were wide, he was stunned for a long time, and said, "The murderer is a dead corpse, and the murderer is a dead corpse," he looked at Gongzi Qi, and his heart was so excited. The county commander standing next to him was stunned for a moment, looking at Gongzi Qi and not knowing what to say? Childe said calmly: "Will you be injured by some fierce beast, such as jackals, tigers and leopards." ”

"No, Childe, you look at the two corpses and the wounds around the corpses, the skin is black, and then look at the upper body of the male corpse, there are still residual pieces of flesh and blood around them, which are also jet black, what kind of poison is so powerful? What kind of beast is so ferocious? I think there are only dead corpses, and what they have in them is corpse poison. Then he opened the wound on the neck of the female corpse, and pointed to the black flesh and looked at Gongzi Qidao.

"Dead corpse, corpse poison," Gongzi Qi lowered his head and kept thinking, slowly walked out, looked up at the night sky, and then walked out. Gongzi Qidao: "Ten years ago, Mr. Meng and I went to Chu State, and the Sanlu doctor of Chu State told us that Chu State believes in ghosts and gods, and witchcraft is prevalent, so the dead corpses are lifeless, since they can commit murder, someone must be manipulated behind them, what kind of people will have such a great ability to manipulate these dead corpses?" I think there are only sorcerers, so the question is, Chu believes in ghosts and gods and witchcraft is more prevalent, how can the dead return to our country to commit murder? ”

Gongzi Qi turned around and looked at the county order and the county order, and the county order looked at each other, with a puzzled face. Gongzi Qi said to them: "There is only one answer, the target of this wizard is our country of Ba, and our country of Bashu and the country of Chu believe in ghosts and gods. I don't know what this sorcerer's intentions are against our country, but it's not good. ”

The county commander walked out very angrily and said: "Childe, after the official goes back, send some more people to search the whole city, check the various main roads in and out of the city gate along the road, and find out this wizard even if he digs three feet into the ground." ”

"No need, the whole city search may be full of storms and rains, and people will be panicked. I think this sorcerer will jump out of the country against us, and we only need to complete two things now, first, burn these two corpses immediately, so as not to spread the poison of the corpses and harm the people in the city; Second, what can you do to draw out the dead bodies? Let's talk about it. ”

"Dead corpses are bloody and extremely ferocious, we don't know how to attract them," dead corpses commit murder late at night, this is the most frightening thing in the county order, what if the dead corpses are attracted out? It's just another corpse. At this time, the prefectural commander's mind was blank.

"Dead corpses are extremely yin things, and their bodies are extremely cold, but what can make them move? I believe that a wizard has the ability to help these corpses break open the vents and obey him, relying on sucking their blood or eating their flesh to increase the temperature in their bodies, this is the principle of the cathode against yang, and it can be inferred that the time of extreme yin is also the time of the activity of dead corpses, and there will be a second time with the first time, and tomorrow you will come to my house to discuss countermeasures," Gongzi Qi said as he wandered back and forth between the two of them.

The first thing Gongzi Qi did was to burn the corpses, and ordered the officials to carry the two corpses out, put them on top of the pile of firewood, take torches and light them, the raging fire rose in the darkness, and the black smoke billowing with the stench filled the night sky, "pop, pop" A few sounds turned the two corpses into ashes along with the firewood, and then left.

Gongzi Qi returned to his mansion, kept pondering this matter, looked at the light in front of the desk, and sat until dawn. The red sun rises in the east, the earth is warm, and the ground is full of yang. Gongzi Qi gathered Zhang Ji, Meng Zhongzi, and Gongsun Zichou to sit on both sides of his mansion.

"I gathered everyone to my house to tell you something, and please don't panic, there was a murder case in the suburbs of Langzhong City late last night, the murderer was so brutal, the victim's death was terrible, and then there was an autopsy, and the result was that the dead body was murdered."

"What? The corpse was murdered," when Gongzi Qi finished speaking, there was an uproar left and right, and some sat in front of the desk in horror with their eyes staring ahead, discussing this matter with each other and talking about the tiger's color, at this time Zhang Ji walked out and said: "What is Childe's strategy?" ”

"First, you ambushed the soldiers around the scene of the crime and listened to my orders; On the second day, when the sun set in the west, the streets were cleared, and the rest of the ambush soldiers hid on both sides of the street; Third, using me as bait, he sat in the house at the scene of the crime, waiting for the dead body to come. ”

"Childe, you can't go, you are the prince of a country, what if you miss our country?" Gongsun Zi is ugly, Meng Zhongzi stood up and knelt down. Then Zhang Ji rushed forward and said, "Childe, you can't go, Pakistan can't do without you." ”

"This intention has been decided, and those who violate the order and persuasion will be beheaded."

These subordinates who were ready to persuade knew that Gongzi Qi was enforcing the law like a mountain, and they all retreated. Gongsun and grandson were ugly, and Meng Zhongzi and the two ran to the court, crying loudly. The king of Ba was very curious and walked down the hall to stand in front of the two of them, and said, "Why are the two Aiqing like this? ”

"We will soon have no prince in Pakistan."

"Nonsense, isn't the crown prince still in the East Palace? How can you say that there will be no prince soon? Don't say that in the future," the king of Pakistan turned his back to them with some displeasure.

"King, I'm not talking nonsense."

"Gongsun Chou, you think that you are the prince's widow, so you don't dare to kill you," the king of Ba angrily pointed at Gongsun Chou, looked at the guards on both sides, and said: "Come on, drag this nonsense out of the palace and kill him." ”

Meng Zhongzi looked at the guards on both sides, looked up at the king of Ba and said, "Great king, wait, it's not too late to kill the ministers after listening to the ministers." ”

The king of Pakistan walked up to the main hall, sat down at the desk, glared at the hall and said, "Okay, you say." ”

"My lord, there was a murder in the suburbs of Langzhong in the middle of the night, and the deceased was so miserable that the result of the autopsy was that the corpse was murdered. The prince wanted to use this as bait to lure the corpse to appear. ”

"What?" The king of Pakistan suddenly stood up, his eyes glazed, and he sat limp in front of the desk, and said: "It's over, it's over, my country of Pakistan is almost over, this may be providence, providence!" How is Nayuki? ”

"Quick, follow the widow to the East Palace, to the East Palace, quickly! Fast! The king of Ba moved his dull eyes to His Royal Highness's minister, and said hurriedly.

At this time, it should be happy that Gongzi and Evil gathered all his subordinates into his mansion and said, "My eldest brother uses himself as bait, isn't this sending himself into the tiger's mouth?" The eldest brother will die soon. ”

"Congratulations to Your Royal Highness, after the death of Gongzi Qi, the position of the crown prince will be up to you, and you will be the future king."

"Don't be too happy, the life or death of the eldest brother has not yet been decided, let's wait here for news first."

The king of Ba hurriedly stepped into the East Palace, and Gongzi Qi stepped out of the mansion and knelt down and said, "Father." ”

"You are not allowed to go."

"Father, what should I do if I don't go to the people of the capital? Do we not care about the lives of the common people? Father, let's not leave the people of the city behind. ”

"Providence is so unhuman, and there is nothing a widow can do. Thou art the son of a widow, and your father will not let you risk your life to go. ”

"Father," Gongzi Qi said, standing in front of the king of Pakistan.

"Someone is coming, put the prince under house arrest in the palace gate, and he is not allowed to leave the mansion for half a step."

Gongzi Qi took a few steps back, pulled out the sword at his waist and put it on his neck, and said, "Father, don't force your son, otherwise your son will die in front of you." ”
