Chapter 53: Ghosts and Zombies

If it was in the era before the time, Lu Jinping would have taken the oral saliva swabs of his nephew and son for comparative testing, but Lu Jinping now has limited reagents in the forensic examination box, so he must be as economical as possible and can only be used in the most critical places. In this case, the two have made it clear that they did not spit in the mausoleum, and then went for forensic verification, most of them just got confirmed, wasting precious reagents in vain.

He also didn't plan to conduct DNA screening on the people in the village, because rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, and he originally felt that the possibility of tomb robberies in the village was very small, and Luo Justice and Xiong Zhutou had already arrested and interrogated people in the village, including nearby villages, who might rob tombs one by one, and some of them were tortured to extract confessions, but they couldn't find the real tomb robbers. If the DNA test is used again, the possibility of finding the tomb robber is also very small. And to solve the case, we must start with the greatest possible first.

But where is the greatest possibility? Lu Jinping has no clue yet.

Lu Jinping asked Luo Zhengyi and Xiong Zhutou: "Have you sent people to the relevant shops in the same state to check if anyone is selling the ceramic utensils stolen from the grave of General Li's grandmother?" ”

Luo Judicial nodded and said, "We have already thought of this method, so we also sent people to squat, but we didn't find these things." ”

Lu Jinping was a little disappointed. After a long day's hard work, the sun has gradually set in the west.

Li Cun was busy saying, "Two adults, why don't we go back to the village for dinner first?" The villain has already prepared a banquet, let's have a good rest after eating, and we will check tomorrow, how about it? ”

Lu Jinping didn't think about how to carry out the investigation work next for a while, and when he heard his words, he nodded and said, "That's fine, rest first." ”

So the group left the tomb mountain and entered the village, and came to Li Cunzheng's house. There are no wealthy families in this village, and even his village mansion is not much better than an ordinary farmhouse. But there is an advantage that the place is large, the yard is very wide, and there are many houses in it.

When I entered the courtyard, I saw seven or eight peasant women who were busy killing chickens and ducks, and when I saw Lu Jinping and Luo Zhengyi coming in in official robes, they quickly got up and gave blessings, looking very embarrassed.

Li Cunzheng introduced that these people were peasant women in the village, and when they heard that they were coming to the distinguished guests today, they all came to help. It is rare to see such an official as a lord and a judge in the village, although there is a general Yunlu in their village, the general has basically never returned to his hometown, and few people in the village have seen him. During this time, I saw a lot of Luo Judicial Investigation Cases. As for the five-grade lord, it is even more rare to see, so on the one hand, these people are helping from the villagers, and on the other hand, they also want to come over to see what the lord looks like, and see the future so that they can tell people about the past.

A few squires came out of the house, dressed very rustic, with a smile on their faces, and welcomed Lu Jinping into the living room, drinking tea and chatting with them.

General Li's uncle also followed him to the main house of Li Village and accompanied him.

At this time, a villager hurriedly came in from outside and whispered a few words in the ear of his uncle. Uncle and grandfather's face changed suddenly.

His expression did not escape Lu Jinping's eyes. Lu Jinping said: "Did something happen to the old man?" ”

Uncle and grandfather hesitated for a moment and said: "That's the case, my nephew went to tell Zhang Blind about the yamen reopening the thief hole and going in to check, Zhang Blind stomped his feet and said, it shouldn't be opened at this time, today is the most fierce day of this month, I'm afraid that there will be evil people taking the opportunity to enter the coffin, then it will be miserable." Then Grandma Zhu won't be able to come back. ”

Lu Jinping was a little curious: "Grandma can't come back, what do you mean?" ”

When the uncle heard this, he regretted that he said something he shouldn't have said, but he had already said it for a while and didn't know how to hide it. After thinking about it, he said: "That's the case, Zhang Blind said, General Li's grandmother was not stolen by someone, she dug a hole by herself and went to participate in the ghost king's selection of concubines, and she also brought all her funeral goods to give gifts to the ghost king." ”

Lu Jinping couldn't help laughing, of course this statement is not true, because according to the results of the inquest, the coffin lid was obviously opened by prying from the outside, rather than breaking out of the coffin from the inside. Therefore, the statement of this Mr. Yin and Yang Zhang Blind is feudal superstition when I hear it. However, he also knew that this kind of so-called superstition was only thought by modern people who had learned the Marxist-Leninist atheist viewpoint, and for ancient times, when theism was dominant, it was easy for the common people to believe this statement, so they did not refute it, asking: "What is the matter with the ghost king's choice of concubine?" ”

"This is all said by the blind man, he said that he has already calculated what year this year is. I can't remember, it was said that the ghost king would go to the ghost world to choose a concubine, and all the female ghosts in the world could run for election. ”

Lu Jinping smiled and said: "General Li's grandmother is only afraid of being a hundred years old, can she still participate in the selection of concubines?" ”

The uncle said: "This is what the blind man said, and we don't know." He said that there is one day in heaven and one year on earth, so no matter how old the ghosts on the earth are, they will not be too old in heaven. Besides, the ghost king is already 10,000 years old, and these female ghosts in the world, but for more than a hundred years, they are very young to him, so they are old and old-fashioned old ladies, and when they go to the underworld, they will become a little girl like flowers, and the ghost king will like it. I heard that General Li's grandmother was very young when she was young, or she would not have married General Li's grandfather. With such a watery woman, the ghost king may have to take a fancy to it, so grandma went to participate. Moreover, she also brought a lot of funeral goods for those judges and imps. That's even more foolproof. ”

At this time, an old squire next to him smiled and said: "What Zhang Blind said is reasonable, it is impossible for people in their sixties, seventies and eighties to deceive people." These days, I heard that it is not General Li's grandmother who went to the underworld to participate in the election of the ghost king's concubine, but also those from other villages, the little daughter-in-law and the eldest girl who died violently, didn't they all go? ”

Lu Jinping sighed and said, "Could it be that there are also stolen and dug up tombs nearby?" ”

"yes, there are three places I know. At first, everyone was very panicked, thinking that someone had robbed the tomb and stolen things. However, of the three families that robbed the tombs, only one had a good family background, and the other two were ordinary people, so they dug a pit and buried them in a coffin, and there was nothing to bury them. Everyone is very strange, Zhang Blind did the math, and the result was that the ghost king married a concubine, saying that it was what year it was, and the ghost king wanted to choose a concubine, so many female ghosts dug up their graves and went out to participate in the ghost king's concubine selection ceremony. ”

Lu Jinping said: "No, aren't ghosts ethereal? You can come out of the grave freely, so why dig a passage? ”

Several squires looked at each other and smiled: "Sir, you are above the court, you don't know much about the affairs in our mountains." The blind man said that in addition to ghosts, zombies can also run for concubines this time, so I wish grandma that they belong to the category of zombies, not ghosts. ”

Lu Jinping was stunned: "Aren't ghosts and zombies the same thing?" Zombies aren't ghosts? ”

"Zombies are zombies, ghosts are ghosts, this blind man said it very clearly, he just knew, I can't say the specifics, but that's what he said. Otherwise, where did the bones of the little daughter-in-law and the eldest girl in these villages go? ”

Lu Jinping didn't bother to refute his remarks, but this was very important news, he immediately stood up and said, "Don't eat first, and immediately rush to check the three stolen tombs." ”

Li Cun was busy saying, "Let's go after eating?" ”

"It's dark after eating, it's important to work, let's go."

The case was originally a matter of Luo Justice, and Lu Jinping was just here to help, he was so conscientious and focused on official affairs, of course, Luo Justice's first meal was even worse, although his stomach was already rumbling with hunger. Besides, this case will not be solved for a day, he is like sitting on pins and needles, stood up and said: "Let's go now, hurry up and lead the way." ”
