Chapter Seventy-Seven: The White Bones Excavated from the Vegetable Garden
Fu Xiaotian and the others hurriedly returned to the county office, and after just going back to stay for a while, it began to rain heavily. The fog was heavy, the rain was misty, and the heavy rain fell for three days and three nights, and it didn't stop at all, and the villagers sighed one after another, and God opened his eyes.
In the past few days, Fu Xiaotian has not been idle, and due to the heavy rain, he can only live in his own house.
Zhuge Iron and Steel is drinking every day holding his own wine gourd, and Chen Guoguo Dabiao and a few of them are also bored, and they are either drinking or eating meat in the past three days. Occasionally, I also run to the cell to take a look, and my life is leisurely.
And Fu Xiaotian was not idle, he found bamboo, carefully made it into thin slices, and drew fifty-four playing cards on it.
After everything was completed, he found Ban Yunyun and Nie Xiaomeng, and took out the cards in his hand with a smile: "Madam, Xiaomeng, come and play cards with me." โ
The two looked at the cards in his hand suspiciously, I don't know why, what does this mean?
Then, Fu Xiaotian explained to the two of them how to play the landlord, and after a period of talking, the two of them didn't seem to understand.
"Alright, we're going to start playing."
Fu Xiaotian laughed evilly, squinted his eyes and launched the card.
This one, he became a landlord, and I don't know if he did it on purpose, or if it was really casually.
"I'll go out first, three threes and one five."
"Haha, it's a buzzing brain."
At this time, Ban Yunyun also played a card: "Three fives with one seven." โ
Nie Xiaomeng also began to play cards: "Three eights with one four." โ
Fu Xiaotian laughed, "Four tens, bomb!" โ
"Junko!"
"Four twos!"
"Two kings, I'm gone!"
"It's a buzzing brain."
Ban Yunyun looked at him unconvinced: "Xianggong, you must have cheated on you, no matter what, start over." โ
"Okay, good..."
ยทยทยท
In this way, with the light rain outside, Fu Xiaotian and they got carried away in the happy time of fighting the landlord.
The next day, the rain had stopped, the sky was cloudless, blue, and the air was fresh.
No, Fu Xiaotian, who was sleeping on the kang with Ban Yunyun in his arms, was in a daze, and the drum of grievances outside was beating again.
"Bang Bang Bang~"
Hearing the voice, Fu Xiaotian got up from the gentle countryside with an irritable face, hurriedly put on his official uniform, put on a black gauze hat and walked out.
At this time, Zhuge Iron and Steel had already completed the transcript, and the person who had complained about his grievances was also brought to court.
I just saw that he took the paper, handed it to Fu Xiaotian's hand, and said slowly: "My lord, please take a look." โ
Fu Xiaotian quickly swept it, slapped it in shock, and shouted: "Who is in the hall, what grievances are there." โ
Well, it's still the same sentence.
Without the slightest hesitation, the man whispered: "My lord, I am a villager of Yangjia Village, it has been raining heavily for the past few days, and I haven't gone out until today, I found a corpse in our vegetable garden. It should have been washed away by the heavy rain, and I was a little scared, so I came to report to the official. โ
"Oh? Is it a white bone? I'd like to take a good look. โ
After that, Fu Xiaotian took Ban Yunyun and Zhuge Iron and Steel and followed the man to Yangjia Village. Yangjia Village is not very far from here, so they didn't walk a few steps, which is about half an hour.
Walking into their house, the man took Fu Xiaotian and the three of them to the vegetable garden, pointed to the front and said, "My lord, it's over there, take a look." โ
With curiosity, the three of them approached the place the man was pointing at, and only to see that a skeletal head was placed in the wet dirt, which looked a little abrupt. It's a little scary to come out of the ground all of a sudden.
If he didn't guess wrong, the man just saw the skull head, and he was frightened, and hurriedly ran to the county office to report to the official. For his hoe and shovel were still beside the bones.
"What do you think, Mr. Steel?"
Zhuge Iron and Steel smiled slightly, and said to him: "My lord, this, do you want to dig out all the bones first?" โ
"Okay."
After speaking, Fu Xiaotian and Ban Yunyun dug up the bones, and the two cooperated very well, Ban Yunyun dug with a hoe, while Fu Xiaotian used a shovel to shovel the soil. And Zhuge Iron and Steel on the side is drinking wine idly, very leisurely.
After all the bones were exposed, the two of them carefully cleaned up the small dirt inside the bones.
After about half an hour, the bone was also cleaned, and not only that, but they also had an unexpected harvest just now, that is, a small money bag.
However, Fu Xiaotian didn't care about the money bag for the time being, but carefully examined the bones with Zhuge Iron and Steel.
This can't help but remind Fu Xiaotian of the scenes in the TV series he watched before, judging whether the bones are male or female, that is, looking at the angle of the pelvis, if it is less than 90 degrees, it is male, if it is greater than 90 degrees, it is definitely female.
Because men's pelvis is narrow, while women's pelvis is wide, which is why men need trouser pockets when wearing jeans, while women don't, and some will break buttons, haha.
At this time, Fu Xiaotian slowly approached the pelvic bone of the corpse with his fingers, his thumb and index finger formed a right angle, and then the two fingers were slowly put down.
Soon, the results came out, and the angle between the pelvis bones was obviously more than 90 degrees, which means that this white bone was a woman, yes.
It's just that why did she appear in this vegetable garden inexplicably, could it be that she was killed and buried here?
At this time, Zhuge Iron and Steel glanced at the bones and said slowly: "According to my speculation, this person should have been killed in the spring." โ
"Mr. Steel, how can you see that?"
Fu Xiaotian looked at him suspiciously, and said with some disbelief.
Zhuge Iron and Steel took a sip of wine and explained: "There are various factors for a corpse to turn into white bones, among which the weather accounts for a large part. You see, the corpse has been completely white, so it's definitely been more than three months. Although these three months are all acting, the weather is hot. However, I don't think it can corrode so quickly, so it can only be spring. โ
"Oh, that's the case."
Fu Xiaotian looked suddenly enlightened, he couldn't imagine that in addition to being a scholar and a Taoist, Zhuge Iron and Steel was also a judge, which was amazing.
However, he never seemed to have thought about why Zhuge Iron and Steel had such a great talent to follow him.
Suddenly, Ban Yunyun pointed to the head of the white bone and shouted, "Xianggong, look at it, what's going on with its head?" โ
