The severed peach tree crashed to the ground, and the air stirred, rising with a bloody smell of grass.

"Ermiao, what the hell is going on?" Lin Xiruo's expression was heavy, and he said to Ding Ermiao: "According to the procedure, I will notify the Municipal Bureau." Because judging by the scene, this is not a natural death. ”

"Needless to say? It must have been the evil thing done by Feiyun Dao Chief Zhong Haoran! Li Weinian held the sapper shovel, the muscles of his arms were raised, and he said indignantly: "It's a pity that he was a step too late and let him run!" ”

Ding Ermiao calmed down and said to Lin Xiruo: "You notify the city bureau." But I have a request, when your people have seen the scene, I will burn this corpse, otherwise...... There is going to be hell to pay. ”

Lin Xiruo nodded, and agreed to Ding Ermiao. Then she picked up the phone, stepped aside, and reported the situation here to the leaders of the city bureau in a heavy tone.

When Lin Xiruo called, Ding Ermiao had already picked up a pair of black earrings from the skull's head with a branch.

"What kind of material are these earrings, and how are they black?" Lin Xi asked puzzled.

Wan Shugao and Li Weinian were also puzzled, and squeezed over together, staring at the pair of earrings. Li Hao and Zhou Peng, in the end, couldn't see such a terrifying scene, dragged their shovels, said hello and fled.

Ding Ermiao handed the earrings to Lin Xiruo and said, "This is a pair of pure gold earrings, you can know the weight by weighing it." Judging from the scattered locations, it should be the ornaments of the deceased before his death. ”

Lin Xiruo took it and gently threw it in the palm of his hand, which was really weighty.

"But ......, why are the gold earrings black? As far as I know, gold is chemically stable, very resistant to oxidation, and generally speaking, it does not change color. Lin Xiruo asked.

As an excellent criminal policeman, Lin Xiruo has a little understanding of academic encyclopedias, which is also a kind of soft power that they have exercised in their work.

Ding Ermiao nodded: "Yes, gold gold, generally speaking, it should indeed be yellow and golden." But some old detectives may have seen such black gold. That's because the gold is stained with ...... Mercury, also known as mercury. Many ancient tombs, in order to embalm corpses, often pour a large amount of mercury into the corpse. And the gold ornaments worn by the tomb owner, stained with these mercury, will appear black spots, or all blackened, as in this pair of gold earrings. ”

"Mercury?" Lin Xiruo and Wanshu Gao Li Weinian asked almost at the same time: "This pair of earrings is also black because of mercury?" ”

Ding Ermiao nodded silently.

Li Weinian still didn't understand, and asked, "Brother Ermiao, this is not an ancient tomb, why is mercury appearing?" And the corpse is also decomposed, obviously, there is no embalming effect......"

"Mercury is not only used for embalming corpses, sometimes ......, it is also a tool."

Ding Ermiao raised his eyes to look at the sky, and seemed to have made a lot of determination, before he said: "This skeleton ......, this deceased, was skinned alive with mercury. ”

"What, peeling, peeling......?"

Lin Xiruo shuddered, glanced at the bones in the pit again, and quickly hid behind Ding Ermiao. Li Weinian and Wan Shugao were at the same time, and they also leaned towards Ding Ermiao.

Regarding the torture of skinning, Lin Xiruo and Li Weinian of Wanshu Gao know one thing, either from TV or from novels.

In the wild history of the Chinese Kingdom, there are many records about skinning and torture, which are similar to each other.

The torturer buried the living standing in the ground, revealing only one head. Make an incision in your scalp and pour mercury into your mouth. Because of its large gravity, mercury slowly slides under the skin, and the person who is buried alive is painful and itchy, so he struggles incessantly. In the end, the man struggled out, and the human skin remained intact in the dirt.

"Why is Daoist Feiyun so vicious, doing such a thing that has lost his conscience?!" Li Weinian clenched his fists, and his bones rattled.

Ding Ermiao retracted his gaze, looked at the bones in the dirt pit, and said, "His viciousness is not only like this. He also forcibly split the three souls and seven souls of the deceased, so that the souls of the deceased could not be reunited, and they could not be reincarnated, and they lost their minds, so they obeyed him. ”

Lin Xiruo and the three of them were all shocked, and listened to Ding Ermiao continue to explain.

"After the deceased had been skinned, the torturer filled the skins with rice bran and hung them in the air, facing north to the sun. Seal the seven orifices with Taoist talismans and cinnabar, so that the three souls remain in the skin; He also buried the bones in the land of Shanyin, and suppressed the seven spirits with five peaches and bronze swords. …… This kind of spell is so evil that I haven't even encountered it once since my master practiced the Tao. ”

After a slight pause, Ding Ermiao said again: "But this kind of spell also has fatal flaws. Because the deceased cannot be reincarnated, the resentment is extremely heavy, so the attack power is particularly strong. Once the soul breaks through the blockade, it will bring infinite calamity. The caster often can't control the situation, and he is injured and cannot die well. ”

"So what now? The female ghost just now suddenly disappeared, will she kill people everywhere? Lin Xiruo asked anxiously: "By the way, is this skeleton Xie Caiwei's mother?" I look at the back, it is indeed exactly the same as Xie Caiwei. ”

"It's fine during the day, but before twelve o'clock tonight, I'm going to take this female ghost, or the consequences will be unimaginable. I'll talk about the rest when I have time. Ding Ermiao interrupted Lin Xiruo's words and said to Li Weinian and Wan Shugao: "Just break fifty small peach branches from the peach tree, just a little thicker and longer than a toothpick." ”

As he spoke, Ding Ermiao took out the red line again, measured it for a long time between the limbs of the bones and the peach tree, and then used a soft ruler to measure the length of the red line, and let Lin Xiruo write it down one by one.

Li Weinian and Wan Shugao took immediate action and quickly broke off fifty small peach branches and handed them over. Ding Ermiao took the peach branches, sat cross-legged on the ground, took out a handful of copper coins, sprinkled them on the ground, and inserted those peach branches in the copper coin eyes, while muttering something in his mouth.

For a long time, Ding Ermiao let out a long breath and said, "Three quarters and three minutes due east and south, seventy miles!" ”

Lin Xiruo was stunned for a moment, and asked at the same time, "What do you mean?" ”

Ding Ermiao took out a large compass from his backpack, placed it flat on the ground, carefully corrected the direction, and then beckoned everyone to come and see, and said:

"Sister policewoman, look. Following the direction of the red needle of the compass, seventy miles forward, is the place where Zhong Haoran placed the skin of the deceased. In order to take this evil ghost, I must first find the skin and let the female ghost's soul be one. If you can't find the female ghost skin before twelve o'clock tonight, then ...... I don't know how many people will die. ”

"Oops!" Li Weinian was taken aback and said, "That Feiyun Dao Leader has already run away, maybe he took the first step to put away the skin of the deceased, let's look for it now, isn't it too late?" ”

"Shouldn't it be that fast?" Ding Ermiao thought for a while, flexed his fingers and began to chant the mantra.

A whirlwind blew, and Kang Cheng Luo Ying hid among the branches and leaves of the peach tree and asked, "**Master, what is the send?" ”
