Chapter 22: The Buddha Beads in the Secret Passage

"Team Zhao, I'll go down first, and after I get the corpses up, you guys will go down." Xiang Daimo said.

Xiang Daimo didn't just talk, he had already put his right leg into the mouth of the well and rode on the edge of the well.

He had a lamp around his neck.

Zhao Zimeng and Zhou Jialiang grabbed Xiang Daimo's arm and helped Xiang Daimo to the supporting board.

According to Master Zhou's instructions, Xiang Daimo stood on the wooden board with his feet apart, grasped one of the four ropes tightly with his right hand, and took the rattan basket in Wang Biao's hand with his left hand.

Master Zhou also tied a rope around Xiang Daimo's waist for safety.

Zhao Zimeng, these public security officers are not the people who eat this bowl of rice after all, the rope and the pallet will shake in the well, and if the center of gravity is not stable, people will fall into the well.

Master Zhou nodded, and the two craftsmen began to carefully turn the wheel, while Master Zhou grasped the rope in his hand tightly and lowered it little by little.

Zhou Jialiang was right, the planks and ropes shook very much.

The further down it goes, the harder it shakes and the amplitude gets bigger and bigger.

Although Xiang Daimo is a tough guy, at the moment on the pallet, his legs can't stop trembling, and his heart is empty.

If it weren't for Zhou Jialiang adding a rope to his waist, he would have been even more nervous.

"Stop!" Xiang Daimo's loud voice came from the well.

The wheel stopped turning.

Xiang Daimo turned on the lamp, shone it into the hole, took the lamp off his neck, put the lamp in the hole, put the rattan frame at the hole, and then slowly pushed the rattan basket into the dark passage, and finally untied the rope around his waist.

Xiang Daimo slowly shook the rope like a swing, when the plank and the rope were about to touch the hole.

Xiang Daimo grabbed the inside of the cave and climbed into the cave with the help of the consistency of the plank and rope.

Soon, Xiang Daimo's figure disappeared at the entrance of the cave.

Only the change in the shadow reflected on the wall of the well opposite the entrance can reflect Xiang Daimo's activity in the dark passage.

Wang Biao is not wrong, the space inside the dark passage is indeed very large, the height of the secret passage is about two meters, and the width is about one meter two. The top is arched, and all are made of stone.

I was half-hung in the well just now, and the moisture was very heavy, but the inside of this dark tunnel was dry, and there was no silt on the ground.

The well water is about four meters below the entrance of the cave.

The groundwater is far away from the underground tunnel, but the cool air in the underground tunnel is pressing.

Xiang Daimo could always feel a cold air blowing from the depths of the dark tunnel, which was eerie and terrifying.

He had seen the corpse, the smell of corruption coming from his face.

Xiang Daimo took out gloves and masks from his pockets.

After putting it on, Xiang Daimo held the lamp in one hand and the wall in the other, half-squatting and moving three or four steps, and then slowly straightened up.

Xiang Daimo found a steel drill about a meter long in front of his skull.

Xiang Daimo picked up the steel drill and looked at it, the head of the steel drill was flat, and there was a hook at the tail.

The steel drill is very corroded.

Xiang Daimo stacked several green bricks together, placed the lamp on the green bricks, and aimed the pillar of light at the corpse.

The clothes on the corpse were still there, Xiang Daimo touched the clothes wrapped around the corpse with his hand, and the clothes did not fall apart.

It turned out that the deceased's shirt and pants were all made of chemical fiber, and this material was a favorite thing for everyone to wear in the turbulent era.

The deceased's shirt was a white Surea shirt with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, a pair of light gray Surea trousers underneath, and a pair of gray stockings and yellow liberation shoes on his feet.

The corpses were curled up on their sides.

Except for the head and hands of the deceased, all other places were wrapped in clothes, shoes and socks.

The deceased also wore a gray cap on his head.

Xiang Daimo was bold and careful, put the rattan basket straight, supported the bones with both hands, lifted it gently, and then slowly put it into the rattan basket.

When the corpse left the ground, Xiang Daimo heard the sound of bones breaking, fortunately there was a wrap of clothes, otherwise, the bones would definitely fall apart.

When the corpse was about thirty centimeters above the ground, one of the corpse's shoes fell to the ground.

Along with the shoes, stockings and bones below the ankle and below the ankle were dropped on the ground - the bones below the ankle were inside the stockings, and the stockings were inside the shoes.

The sole and sides of the shoes are rubber, and the uppers and laces are cotton and have rotted.

When the shoe falls to the ground, a piece of the upper and laces quickly detach from the sole.

Xiang Daimo quickly put the corpse into the rattan basket, and the corpse was put into the rattan basket, but the skull of the deceased. Along with the hat fell to the ground.

The skull rolled on the ground a few times and didn't move, and when the hat fell to the ground, it instantly spread out, leaving only the brim and the hat ring.

Xiang Daimo found that the hat was made of cloth, and the brim and brim were made of plastic.

Xiang Daimo put the deceased's skull into the basket, and put the deceased's right foot bone, along with shoes, into the basket.

Finally, he picked up the lamp and searched carefully on the ground, and found several finger bones, a black Buddhist bead, and a stainless steel lighter on the ground.

The location of the beads is at the junction of the secret passage and the entrance to the cave, and the lighter is in the trouser pocket of the corpse.

Xiang Daimo took out two plastic bags from his pocket, put the Buddha beads and lighter into one plastic bag, and put a few small bones into another plastic bag, sealed them, and put them in a rattan basket.

Xiang Daimo half-squatted at the entrance of the cave and hooked the plank and rope to the end of the steel drill.

The well is small and large, the planks and ropes are vertically downward, and the hole is about four meters away from the well, so there is a distance of seventy or eighty centimeters between the plank and the hole.

"Xiang Daimo, do you need to go down alone?" Zhao Zimeng lay on the edge of the well and said loudly.

"Not for the time being, it's not too late for people to come down after the corpses are brought up. Put one rope down, and I will fix the basket to four ropes so that it will not slip into the water. ”

Zhou Jialiang took a relatively thin rope from a craftsman's hand and slowly lowered it into the well.

Xiang Daimo hooked the rope to the hole with the tail of the steel drill.

Xiang Daimo placed the wooden plank on the hole, placed the rattan basket firmly on the wooden board, and then used the thin rope put down by Master Zhou to fix the four ropes on the four sides of the rattan basket, and left a piece of rope.

Xiang Daimo grabbed the head of the rope and slowly pushed the rattan basket out of the hole.

The rattan basket landed firmly below the wellhead.

Xiang Daimo let go of the rope in his hand and said loudly: "Team Zhao, there is a Buddha bead and a lighter in the plastic bag, you can pull it up!" ”

Zhao Zimeng waved his hand, and the two craftsmen began to turn their wheels.

When the two craftsmen began to turn their wheels, Xiang Daimo heard some noisy sounds from the well,

At this time, Xiao Changsong arrived with Feng Yiming and Cheng Qiushui.

Although only one skeleton of the deceased remains, an autopsy is indispensable, and the autopsy can only be performed on the well.

Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei were on the side, carrying the rattan basket to the ground on the north side of the well.

Abbot Xiuneng suddenly said loudly: "Captain Zhao, this person is Ge Zhenggen's cousin. ”

"The master is right, this person is the one surnamed Liu." Jueshui Supervisor said.

There should be a basis for Abbot Xiuneng and Supervisor Jueshui to say so.

Supervisor Jueshui stated his basis: "When the surname Liu was working in the temple, he wore this dress. There is also a gray-colored hat. ”

"What is this?" Lindy pointed to the hat with only the brim and rim left. There were also some fragments of gray cloth on the brim and rim.

"It's a hat, and the brim and rim are plastic, so it's still there." Linghu Yunfei said.

Zhao Zimeng untied the rope that held the rattan basket in place.

Ma Jianping and Xiao Luhan carried the rattan basket under a tall linden tree, under which there was a flat piece of ground.

Cheng Qiushui took out gloves and masks from the forensic box and handed them to Xiao Changsong and Feng Yiming.

After Feng Yiming put on gloves and a mask, he spread a piece of plastic sheeting on the ground.

Xiao Changsong carefully placed the body on a plastic bag.

Zhao Zimeng picked up the plastic bag containing the Buddha beads and lighter from the rattan basket, and walked up to the abbot of Xiuneng and the supervisor of Jueshui: "Abbot Xiuneng, Master Jueshui, have you seen this Buddha bead?" ”

Supervisor Jueshui shook his head.

The abbot of Xiuneng said: "There are many monks in the temple who have this kind of Buddha beads. ”

"Captain, Zen Master Puji is here." Lin Di Dao.

Zhao Zimeng raised his head.

Zen Master Puji walked into the East Zen Temple, followed by Master Jing Neng.

Zhao Zimeng and Ling Huyunfei greeted him.

After the two sides gave a salute, Zhao Zimeng pointed to the Buddha beads in the plastic bag and said, "Zen Master Puji, have you ever seen this Buddha bead?" ”

Zen Master Puji looked at the Buddha beads, and then said: "This kind of Buddha beads are available to almost all monks in the temple. Captain Zhao, can you take it out and take a look? ”

Zhao Zimeng took out the beads from the plastic bag.

The beads are water chestnut in color, slightly smaller than the small glass marbles that children play with, and there is a small hole in the middle of the beads.

Zen Master Puji's judgment was right, the masked man in black was a monk in the temple.

Buddha beads appeared in the secret passage, and the person who killed Ge Zhenggen and Liu Abao was most likely a monk in the temple.

Xiang Daimo found the Buddha beads in the secret passage, which is of great significance.

This Buddha bead has identified the murderer of Ge Zhenggen and Liu Abao as a monk of Lengyue Temple.

With a clear goal and main direction of attack, this is very beneficial for the next investigation.

Although the identity of the deceased has been determined, the autopsies of Xiao Changsong, Feng Yiming and Cheng Qiushui still have to follow the procedure.

Next, Xiao Changsong, Feng Yiming and Cheng Qiushui conducted a preliminary autopsy.

Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei went down to the well one after another and entered the secret passage.

When going down the well, Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei put on masks and gloves, and Ling Hu Yunfei also brought a light.

The secret passage on the wall of the well must lead to the underground palace, what is the underground palace like? In what location?

This is what everyone, including Abbot Xiuneng, Supervisor Jueshui, Puji Zen Master and all the monks, want to know.

Xiang Daimo squatted at the entrance of the dark passage and pulled Zhao Zimeng and Linghu Yunfei into the cave one by one.

As soon as Zhao Zimeng entered the dark passage, he saw the steel drill lying in the corner of the wall: "Xiang Daimo, what's going on with this steel drill?" ”

"I found this drill next to the corpse, you see-" Xiang Daimo half-crouched on the ground and aimed the pillar of light at the drill.

"The steel drill is full of rust, this steel drill is used to pry things, and it may also be the murder weapon used by the murderer to kill Liu Abao."
