"What's wrong?" The captain asked, turning his head.

I also looked at it curiously.

I saw Zhang Fat Man straighten up, holding something in his hand, looking at it curiously.

After looking at it a few times, he handed us the thing in his hand with a surprised face: "Look, the old lady actually has a piece of jade in her mouth!" ”

"Jade?"

The captain frowned, walked over, put on gloves, carefully took the jade in Zhang Fatzi's hand, and watched it repeatedly.

I followed, too.

The jade is only the size of a thumb, and the whole body is turquoise and transparent, carved into the shape of a majestic white tiger descending from the mountain, and the carving is very detailed, which is simply lifelike. And below the white tiger, there are two words.

"Wow!"

In fact, there were some small characters on the edge of the jade, but because the font was too small and the light was relatively dark, I couldn't see it clearly at that time.

"Why is this jade in the old lady's mouth?" The captain watched it several times and was a little puzzled.

"Can you show me?" At this time, Professor Liu came over and looked at the jade in the captain's hand, his eyes were a little hot.

The captain glanced at Professor Liu and gave him a pair of gloves.

After Professor Liu took it, he took the jade in the captain's hand with a happy face.

didn't look at it a few times, and kept admiring: "Good jade, good jade!" ”

Professor Liu's flashlight kept shining on the jade, and the excitement on his face could not be concealed, and after a while, he slightly restrained his interest, raised his head, and saw that we were all looking at him, Professor Liu couldn't help but be embarrassed, and explained: "This is Lantian jade, and it is the best Lantian jade, you see this luster, this color, this feel, it has reached the point of impeccable." ”

"There are tears in the pearl of the sea and the moon, and the blue field jade is warm and smoky...... It's Lantian jade, don't underestimate this small piece of Lantian jade, Lantian jade with such a texture, if you want a piece, you have to spend a lot of money. The most important thing is this carving ......"

Professor Liu pointed to the white tiger on the jade: "Look at the lines on it, the proportion of the shape and the overall shaping are definitely at the level of masters...... The average person simply can't carve something like this. As he spoke, Professor Liu had a puzzled expression: "Why is such a precious jade in your mouth?" ”

"Is this kind of jade expensive?" Ye Yongping didn't know when he was standing behind us, and asked in a low voice.

"Expensive, of course expensive!" Professor Liu stroked it a few times with an envious face, and then reluctantly returned it to the captain.

The captain took out a bag and carefully placed it inside.

Ye Yongping looked at the piece of jade and stopped talking, but looked at the old lady in the coffin, and finally swallowed the words.

"Don't you think there's anything wrong?" Xu Yafen pouted at the jade and said.

"Something is wrong? What do you mean? The captain frowned and asked immediately.

Xu Yafen pointed to the words on the back of the jade: "戌时, it should mean about seven o'clock in the evening to nine o'clock, and the time when the old lady died was exactly around seven o'clock?" Is this a coincidence? That's a coincidence, isn't it? ”

Xu Yafen said that everyone brushed and changed color.

I was also stunned suddenly, and suddenly I thought of something, and my face became ugly.

However, the captain was stunned for a moment and muttered, "It's not that coincidental!" It may also be the time of birth of the old man......"

As soon as he finished speaking, the captain immediately turned around and said to a person behind him: "Has the old man's family been notified?" ”

"Notice, they're coming!"

The captain nodded.

I walked over at this time and said, "Captain, can you show me?" ”

The captain was stunned and handed it to me along with the gloves.

I took it apprehensively, rubbed it carefully a few times, and frowned slightly. After a moment, he raised his head: "Professor, help find the light, I need to take a closer look."

Professor Liu nodded in agreement.

Professor Liu looked at me carefully at the jade, didn't speak for a long time, but his brows became deeper and deeper, and he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, do you see something?" ”

I didn't speak, and at this point, my whole mind was on the jade.

As Professor Liu said, this is a fine piece of Lantian jade, the color is transparent, moist, and there is a special beauty under the soft lines.

But I didn't care about this at this time, I was all in my energy, firmly attracted by the small line on the back of the jade.

The small print is small, but if you look closely, it's still very visible.

After a while, I suddenly raised my head and looked at the captain: "Captain, is the old man's name Ye Xiao'e?" ”

"How do you know?" The captain exclaimed in surprise.

"See for yourself!" I handed the jade to the captain, and then pointed to the location behind it.

The captain took it and was instantly stunned.

The position behind the jade, in addition to the hour, also has the name of the old man and the eight characters of his birthday. The old man's birth time was 10 o'clock in the morning, which has nothing to do with the time.

Then the statement that this time is the time of birth is not valid.

My face was a little ugly, and the captain noticed it and asked me what was wrong, but I shook my head and didn't say anything.

It didn't take long for the old lady's family to come, and when they arrived at the scene, there was a burst of crying, earth-shattering, but fortunately, Zhang Fatzi had already completed the examination.

When asked them about jade, they looked confused, wanting to make them not know anything about jade. When the old lady's daughter-in-law saw such a good jade, she became greedy and wanted to go over, but was rejected by the captain.

The old lady's daughter-in-law wanted to spill, but the captain directly took out the handcuffs and glared at the old lady's daughter-in-law, and then stopped.

Because the incident is so strange that it is impossible to determine whether it was a homicide or a suicide, this matter can only be handled as a difficult case.

There are a lot of people, plus the old lady's son, and the daughter-in-law keeps crying and crying, so the next thing can't be carried out.

Originally, I was going to let the captain dispose of those coffins, and it was better to burn them, or bury them, but it really didn't work, and it was okay to find a place to store them.

But in this matter, the captain was particularly difficult to speak, and his attitude was very resolute, saying that in a few days, a grand ceremony would be arranged to re-bury these coffins.

Professor Liu called this a pity. It's a pity that Professor Liu can't do anything about it.

At about ten o'clock in the evening, we all went down the mountain. The place to go is on the edge of Yongsan, which is a new rural village. It is also the home of Zhang Fatzi's friend Ye Yongping.

As soon as he arrived at Ye Yongping's house and closed the door, Zhang Fatzi hurriedly came over and whispered: "If there is anything, you can talk about it now, you can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me." ”

I glanced at the fat man.

It wasn't surprising that he could see that I had something on my mind.

I didn't hide it, sighed, and said directly: "When the time comes, it should be the time of the old lady's death." ”

"How do you know for sure?" Fat Zhang's face was shocked, and Xu Yafen, Professor Liu, and Ye Yongping on the side also looked at me with a shocked face, and the expression on his face was the same as that of Fat Zhang.

"Actually, the jade is a half-born stone, also called a companion stone. It is the time of the old lady's life, and the hour above is the time of the old lady's birth and death. ”

"How is that possible?" Professor Liu shouted.
