Hu Zhixian's face was a little ugly, because except for the corpses on the ground, the arresters at the scene were not there, so he hurriedly ran back from various places in the Wang family's mansion.

One of them ran in a hurry, a string of pearls fell from his clothes, the thread was broken, and the round pearls rolled in all directions, and the catcher hurriedly lay on the ground and chased the pearls.

Hu Zhixian just wanted to open his mouth to reprimand these arresters who left their posts without permission, and the hundreds of onlookers outside also rushed in at this time.

Hu Zhixian's face turned blue with anger, and he shouted: "Stop." ”

I have to say that the county magistrate's uniform and hat on his body are still very intimidating, and the crowd that poured in hurriedly braked.

If you don't brake, you can't do it, and if you squeeze forward, the person in front will step on the corpse.

"Don't squeeze."

"Don't squeeze the back ones."

"Li Leprosy, squeeze your sister, and then squeeze back and I'll beat you."

Although the courtyard of the Wang family's mansion is quite wide, two or three hundred people squeezed in still occupy a large area, and the people in the back can't see the corpse, but can only see the back of the head of the person in front, so they want to squeeze forward, and there is a commotion for a while, and the scene of the murder is like a vegetable market.

Of course, there are also those shrewd, taking advantage of the chaos of the scene and no one paying attention, sneakily running to the backyard warehouse and other places of the Wang family's mansion.

Fang Yue also mixed in with the crowd, although he was not crowded in the front row, but he was also very far ahead, and he was taller, so he was not blocked by the front.

He remembered that when he chatted with the innkeeper last night, the shopkeeper mentioned that Wang Yuanwai's house was haunted, and a servant saw a woman in red clothes appear in the backyard, which lasted for several days, making the Wang family panic.

Later, the master of Guangyuan Temple came to exorcise ghosts, and finally the house was peaceful and no longer haunted.

But now, the Wang family is full of death, and it is obvious that the situation has changed.

"Is it because of the female ghost in red?"

Fang Yue came over, not only to see the excitement, but also to find out. In the nightmare, demons are rampant, and ghosts are likely to be faced by him in the future, and a little more knowledge can also be a little more prepared.

Although so many people died, there was no smell of blood in the Wang family's compound, but it was a little cold, I don't know if it was an illusion.

"Huh?"

A scream rang out, heartbreaking, and the noisy crowd fell silent.

Fang Yue's heart tightened, and he looked at the scream, but it turned out that it was a guy standing at the front who was squeezed and fell, and his whole body was lying on top of the corpse, grabbing his hands and feet in a panic, and he actually lifted off the white cloth covering the corpse, and almost face to face with the corpse, and let out a scream in fright.

"What the hell? Scared the hell out of me. ”

"I thought it was haunted, and it scared me."

"You are a big man, why are you so daring."

"Wait, look at the corpse on the ground, his expression ......"

The guy who fell down was so frightened that his legs and feet were weak, and he used his hands and feet together, and finally got up from the ground, without him blocking the view, and the onlookers also saw the corpse that had been half of the white cloth removed.

The corpse was a middle-aged man, looking like a servant of the Wang family, his expression was distorted and hideous, the green tendons on his hands and forehead were bulging, and his skin was extremely pale, as if he had been soaked in water for a long time.

"Why did you die so miserably?"

"It looks like you fell into the water and drowned."

"It won't be a ghost asking for his life, the Wang family just haunted a ghost some time ago."

"It's pretty scary."

The onlookers gradually fell silent, because the expression of the corpse was really scary to look at, and there were rumors of haunting in the Wang family compound, everyone began to feel a little uncomfortable.

"It's coming, let's get ahead."

Someone shouted in the rear, and when everyone heard that it was a joke, they quickly moved out of the way on both sides.

It was an old man, followed by a young man carrying a wooden box.

"Cao Dekun, a grass citizen, visited the county lord."

"Grass people Cai Jin visited the county lord."

Hu Zhixian said: "Cao Chengzuo, hurry up and start." There was a little impatience on his face, there were so many corpses in the vestibule of the Wang family's compound, and it was very uncomfortable to stay.

"Yes, sir."

Cao Dekun answered, and took his apprentice to start the autopsy.

"Stand back, give me back off, don't bother Cao Cheng for an autopsy."

Li Zhutou shouted loudly for the crowd of onlookers to retreat, and several officials were busy maintaining order on the scene and not letting people get too close.

In fact, Li Zhutou really wanted to drive out all these onlookers, so as not to get in the way here, and many things were inconvenient, but Hu Zhixian didn't speak, and their manpower was very insufficient.

If they are forcibly driven away, the onlookers will inevitably refuse to leave because of the large number of people, and there will be no sufficient manpower to maintain order in the conflict, which will only make it more chaotic.

Speaking of which, Li Zhutou's manpower is not insufficient, but-

Li Zhutou looked at a few catchers standing aside, they were bulging, and Li Zhutou must have accounted for a large share when they shared the spoils afterwards, so they can't be allowed to come out to work now, otherwise they will push and shove with the crowd of onlookers, and the property on their bodies will fall down.

The few officials who were maintaining order did not work hard, and there was weakness in their hands, and their eyes glanced at a few catchers from time to time, and their minds were uncertain.

Li Zhutou had no choice but to speak, "Didn't you eat?" Give me a good job, maintain order, and don't let people crowd into the front and collide with the county lord. It's all my own brothers, can I still treat you badly! ”

The meaning of these words is obvious, and the distribution of the spoils afterwards is indispensable for a share of several officials, which means that the witnesses have a share.

If you don't do this, you can't do it, otherwise even if you go back, those officials don't get the benefits, can you balance your hearts? Something is bound to happen, and it can only be seen by those who see it.

There is a commotion here, and Cao Yanzuo has already started an autopsy over there.

Cao Yanzuo squatted in front of the corpse of the middle-aged man who had lifted the white cloth, carefully examined the ears, nose, mouth, hands and feet of the corpse, and then lifted the white cloth on another corpse.

The corpse, newly lifted from the white cloth, was a young woman, wearing only a peach-colored belly pocket on her upper body, highlighting her delicate figure and quite seductive.

It's just that the expression is hideous, the originally pretty face is distorted, the green tendons on the forehead and hands are bursting up, the skin is pale as if it has been soaked in water for a long time, and the death is very similar to that of the middle-aged man.

The young man who followed Cao Yanzuo's side was so red that he didn't know where to look.

"It's a pity, what a beautiful woman." Some onlookers sighed while lingering on the female corpse.

"This is the fourth concubine outside the king, even if you don't die, it won't be your turn to be an old bachelor." Someone urged the narrow way.

Cao Qizuo was probably worried that the female corpse was somewhat exposed, and there were many onlookers, so after a general inspection, he re-covered the female corpse with a white cloth and went to remove the white cloth on the corpse.

The next corpse was a young man, with the same hideous and twisted expression, with bruised tendons on his forehead and hands, and his skin was pale as if he had been soaked in water for a long time.

The expression on Cao Yanzuo's face changed slightly, he bent over, and immediately uncovered the white cloth on several corpses one after another.

At this time, even the onlookers all sensed that something was wrong and strange, because the death of these corpses was almost identical.

Hu Zhixian's heart was a little numb, and he asked, "Cao Yanzuo, what have you discovered?" ”

Cao Qizuo had a puzzled expression on his face, and said thoughtfully: "Lord Qiqi, the hair, clothing, and skin on these corpses are dry, but according to the characteristics of their deaths, the villain preliminarily determined that they were all drowned. ”
