Chapter 842 'Heaven' Master's Mansion [II]

[The case is unreasonable...... The first day of the 6,000 words failed, and let me fight again tomorrow! 】

After sending Huang Bin out to investigate those craftsmen, Sun Shaozong went straight to the coroner's desk.

The coroner's bench was built from timber stacked in the backyard and covered with a layer of old leather that had been scrapped out of nowhere.

In addition, there were six pots of charcoal around the dissecting table, and as soon as they got close, it was as if they were in a steamer.

This is because the corpse has been hanging outside the main hall door for most of the night, and the stone that has long been frozen seems to have to be thawed first if you want some clues to emerge.

said that Sun Shaozong came to the coroner's table, stretched out his hand and poked the corpse's calf, and saw that the skin and flesh had regained its softness, and immediately started from the ankle and kneaded it inch by inch.

The results of the examination showed that the lower leg bone of the deceased was slightly deformed, and the muscles at the knee joint were also significantly different from other places, which was suspected to be the result of repeated stagnation.

There were no signs of wear at the base of the thighs, indicating that these abnormalities were not due to long-term riding.

Combined with the head and clothes taken away by the murderer, the possibility that the deceased was a Taoist priest who had been sitting cross-legged for many years greatly increased.

If his identity is assumed to be a Taoist priest, there are generally two inferences.

One is the rival of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, in order to provoke and smear the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so he killed the Taoist of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, or the Taoist who has a relationship with the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and hung it outside the door of the main hall.

But in this case, it seems that the murderer does not need to take away the deceased's head and clothes, but wants to let the deceased's identity be exposed.

The other is internal strife, after the murderer kills the victim, he concocts the illusion that all this is the work of the opponent of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

But this makes it even more difficult to explain his behavior of taking away the heads and bodies of the dead.

Could it be ......

What evidence was left on the head and clothes of the deceased?

Or is there some connection between the identity of the deceased and the murderer?

While deliberating on the case, one of the servants came up and said cautiously: "My lord, the contents of the deceased's stomach have been checked clearly, they are all light vegetarian food, and there is nothing meaty. ”

It's more and more like a monk.

Of course, there are lay people who have never been a monk, and there are also those who meditate and fasted for a long timeβ€”but few lay people who practice at home have begun to devote themselves to the Tao since they were teenagers.

"What else did you find?"

"And then there'......"

Together with his companions, Na Zuo turned the corpse on its side forty-five degrees, pointed to the left shoulder blade and two bruises on the back of the neck, and said: "After the corpse is thawed, two marks appear on the back, as if they were vigorously pressed by someone before they died. ”

Sun Shaozong stepped forward and looked at it carefully for a long time, frowned noncommittally, and then raised the deceased's left arm, swinging back and forth to observe.

The two pretended to be inexplicable when they watched from the side, but because of their identity preparations, they didn't dare to ask anything.

After putting down the deceased's left arm, Sun Shaozong asked again: "Have you ever found any signs of poisoning?" ”

The reason why he asked this was because although there were signs of strong pressure on the deceased's body, there were no traces of struggle.

Especially the left arm of the deceased.

Normally, when someone is pressed against the shoulder blade, there will always be traces of struggle in the joint, but after careful inspection, no similar signs were found.

But after listening to Sun Shaozong's question, the two of them glanced at each other, and shook their heads in unison - this is not a negative meaning, but they are not sure whether the deceased was poisoned before his death.

There is no way, there are no scientific instruments to assist at present, and many toxins are difficult to detect as long as they do not reach the level of damaging organs.

And apart from those two traces, the servants found nothing.

It was Sun Shaozong himself who found a shallow mark on the deceased's collarbone.

The mark was a little blurry, and it was not far from the iron nail on the chest, so it was mostly covered by blood, if it weren't for Sun Shaozong's sharp eyes, I am afraid that it would have been wrong.

After cleaning up the bloodstains, I could only faintly see that it was a rectangular outline, and the edges were protruding - if it weren't for that, I am afraid that I would not even be able to suppress this shallow outline.

Sun Shaozong pondered for a long time, explained to the two servants to inspect it in detail, and then went straight out of the shed.

When I came out, I found that there was another young Taoist outside-but looking at the position, I knew that this new young Taoist was obviously not an important person.

Sun Shaozong also ignored the young Heavenly Master, and asked one of the middle-aged Taoist priests, "Your disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion in the capital, are there any people whose whereabouts are unknown now?" ”

"Humph!"

Without waiting for the middle-aged Taoist priest to reply, the cold-faced Young Heavenly Master sneered, and then raised his chin to the young Taoist behind him: "Senior Brother Wang, you make it clear to him!" ”

"Yes."

The young Taoist complied, and went out to Sun Shaozong and said: "Xiaodao Wang Chuyi has seen Lord Sun, since he heard that there was a murder in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the family teacher Hongyuan Zhenren ordered the disciples in Beijing to go to converge, and then informed the Zhengtong Dao in Beijing. ”

"After this half-day investigation, and it has been confirmed that the disciples of my Heavenly Master's Mansion are all safe and sound, and the rest of the Zhengyi people in Beijing are not missing."

Sun Shaozong didn't find it strange that if the identity of the deceased could be found out so easily, what was the use of the murderer taking away his head and clothes?

Just hesitating, whether to test these Taoists with the rectangular marks on the deceased's chest, the king said again: "The family teacher asked Xiaodao to bring a message to the adult, he is now ordered to preside over Jia Zhenren's ceremony, he really can't get out, if the adult has time at night, please take the time to go to Ningguo Mansion to talk about it." ”

I didn't think that at this time, the emperor would even send Hongyuan Zhenren to preside over Jia Jing's transcendent ceremony.

Speaking of this Hongyuan Zhenren, it is rumored that in the contemporary Heavenly Master's Mansion is one person under ten thousand people, the magic is through the gods, and the human feelings are practiced, and as the pioneer of the Heavenly Master's Mansion last spring, he won the emperor's trust soon after entering Beijing.

This newly renovated Heavenly Master's Mansion was originally proposed by him to pave the way for the contemporary Zhang Tianshi to become famous.

And the reason why Sun Shaozong has heard of his name is because of the recent dispute between the north and the south of the Daomen, which is said to have been first provoked by the disciples of Hongyuan Zhenren.

At present, there is such a big mistake in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, but the emperor appointed him to preside over the Dharma affairs of Ningguo Mansion, which shows that this saint's majesty is far from being comparable to ordinary people.

To be honest, if this Hongyuan real person invited Sun Shaozong to visit, he would definitely refuse.

But go to Ningguo Mansion......

It's barely a home battle, so when I go to pick up Second Sister You, let's talk to him about the case by the way.

Just take a look at what kind of person this legendary master can drive away ghosts and gods.

At that moment, Sun Shaozong nodded slightly and said, "After this official visits Qingxuguan, he will go to Ningguo Mansion." ”

Hearing the words 'Qingxuguan', the four Taoists on the opposite side were all stunned, and then the young heavenly master became excited, put aside Wang Chuzhen, stared at Sun Shaozong in a daze, and asked: "This matter is done by Qingxuguan, right?!" ”

"Nope."

Sun Shaozong said indifferently: "I'm just going to ask, there are Taoist priests who are clear and void, and their whereabouts are unknown." ”
