Chapter 19: Inference

Settle down, meditate, think about the person you want to find, close your eyes and feel the change of the compass needle with your heart in the time of a stick of incense, it will take you to find your bearing, and the bronze mirror will tell you the vision, the two are united from the earliest divination witchcraft. This is not a child's house, in fact, it is extremely dangerous to invite Tianyan! In ancient times, priests would use this method before they would contain a kind of anesthetic herb in their mouths, and the medicinal properties would attack in about the time of a stick of incense, and the moment of the attack, people would be numbed by the herbs, and people would naturally get out of the realm of concentration, so it is often recorded in the history books that those priests would foam at the mouth and fall to the ground after the end of the episode. It's not that the priest is trying to create his own mystery, but that he's saving his life!

The danger lies in the fact that there is a certain probability of not waking up after entering the meditation, that is, the soul cannot return to its place after leaving the body, so the caster needs to be absolutely quiet, and in the past, in addition to the secret room, some major sects often had to add guards. It's a pity that Cha Wenbin is now alone, and he is the only one left after the fat man leaves, but fortunately, Wulipu is a remote village, and no one will come to disturb him at night.

Bathing and changing clothes, he hasn't eaten all day, he only drank two sips of water, plus tonight he gave Qi Yuanchao of the Cultural Investigation Team a lot of money, he was holding on. In fact, Cha Wenbin's body is not good, he often stays up late and the blood on his face is still not ruddy, and his hands are stretched out like white paper, he is in his twenties, but he looks so thin.

No one cares, close the door, sit cross-legged, and everything goes according to order. I want to incense Sanqing first, and then incense my ancestors, and then pinch a patrol trick with both hands. This recipe represents patrolling the Ten Directions and Three Realms. Pinch Yinwen with your left hand, which is the root of the index finger, and then Zhou Limao, Chen, Si and other texts, and loop as for the ugly text, which is the root of the middle finger, pinching a total of 12 palaces. It is generally used in rituals such as sacrificial practice and almsgiving, when asking priests to go around to summon the spirits of the dead.

He would hold this position for a long time, keeping his eyes closed until he felt that he was about to settle down, then he got up slightly and lit the incense burner on his chest, took a deep breath, and then continued to sit cross-legged. The bronze mirror was hung directly in front of his eyes with a rope, and after glancing at the haggard self in the mirror, Cha Wenbin finally closed his eyes slowly.

The time of a stick of incense is not long, it is not short, and the standard handmade incense burns out for an hour, which means that Cha Wenbin has to maintain this posture in this hour without being disturbed. Coupled with the time when he wants to enter and leave the time, excluding these possibilities, it is only half an hour to be able to really search the Ten Directions and Three Realms. Don't think that half an hour is enough, for the people who enter the meditation, it is a flick of the fingers, many monks can meditate for three days and three nights, others look anxious, but he himself is likely to just talk to a certain person in the meditation.

Cha Wenbin didn't know how long it took him to settle down, he saw some strange scenes in a trance, there were many people coming and going on the street, but they were wearing long shirts and cloth shoes on their feet. In another trance, he saw a woman, her appearance was unrecognizable, her face was very blurred, the woman was slender, she walked gracefully, and she was followed by a man.

Soon after, a crowd rushed out, the man was knocked to the ground, the woman screamed and wailed, and the woman was taken away.

The picture began to jump again, and Cha Wenbin found himself in a building somewhere, a monk-like figure painting on the wall, and strangely enough, the monk's eyes were gouged out, and there seemed to be tears flowing in the hollow and deep-set eye sockets. On the wall was a mural of a woman, and Cha Wenbin still couldn't see it clearly, so he took two steps forward......

At this moment, the courtyard door of Cha Wenbin's house rang impartially, "Knock, knock......"

At this time, it was close to the early hours of the morning, and it was estimated that it would be dawn in another hour, so why would anyone knock on the door so late? The concubine finally fell asleep, and was suddenly awakened by the knock on the door, she had been frightened for a whole day, and when she opened her eyes, it was dark all around, and when she touched her hand, Cha Wenbin was not there. She dared to move, so she could only hold Cha Liang in her arms and cover her ears with her hands, hoping to end this endless noise as soon as possible.

Who is the one who knocks at the door? It was Li Chenggong and Qi Yuanchao, Qi Yuanchao felt unwilling after Cha Wenbin left, and pulled Li Chenggong back to the accident site. These two people used to be colleagues, and Qi Yuanchao was a bit pretentious, although they are now at the same level, but the literary investigation and criminal investigation always feel that they have dropped a notch. This incident made the boss very unhappy, Qi Yuanchao was aggrieved, not to mention that he might be wearing small shoes to make the leader hate, so he pulled Li Chenggong together and went back to check.

The accident site was the highest and lowest place, the car fell from the top of the mountain, and the two went straight to the first scene, because the time was too late, and the other comrades were busy with the rescue before they had time to investigate carefully. Topographically, it was a bend, barely three meters high, with a columnar guardrail on the outside, which has now been knocked down.

"This shows that the speed of the car at that time was not slow, Lao Li, I looked at the ground without any brake marks, as if he rushed directly over, the driver was extremely fast at that time."

"I know him, and I have dealt with him before, and his driving skills can also be ranked in Anxian County." To be honest, Li Chenggong wondered the most about this, it takes a certain speed to install this kind of cement pier guardrail, and here happens to be the top of the hill down, that is, the downhill road has just begun, and the car rushed out directly. Therefore, according to their facial expressions when they died, it can be inferred that after being frightened, the driver panicked for a moment and put his feet on the accelerator and quickly rushed out, and the huge inertia tore the cement pier and jumped out, so he could fall all the way to the bottom of the mountain. Cha Wenbin said that there was something wrong with the coffin, I believe this kind of thing in private, and I also know that you are unwilling, I have seen those strange things with him with my own eyes. ”

Qi Yuanchao said coldly: "But just now I heard a news, I heard from the traffic police team that the brakes of the car seem to have been damaged, and this matter is not certain for the time being, and the car has fallen like that, so I want to ask you to come up and verify whether you have stepped on the brakes." ”

"Really?" Li Chenggong said: "If this is the case, it may be another way of saying that this is a man-made accident, not a simple traffic accident or a supernatural event." ”

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have called it," Qi Yuanchao said: "I know that the person surnamed Cha in the leprosy village has helped you, and I don't let go of this face, but I always feel that this matter is too strange." What do you say is the purpose of if someone really wants to break the brakes? Apparently snatching a female corpse! This result coincides with the disappearance of the female corpse, and who wants to snatch the female corpse the most? It's Cha Wenbin! ”

Qi Yuanchao said: "Lao Li, I know you trust him, but that Cha Wenbin keeps emphasizing that there is a problem with the female corpse, that thing has been lying underground for hundreds of years, and no one will care about an ancient corpse except him, I think he still has a problem that has not been explained." ”

From a logical point of view, what Qi Yuanchao said is not unreasonable, and Li Chenggong, as a criminal policeman, cares more about clues and inferences. Reasonable inferences and assumptions are the key to solving the case, if it is really as Qi Yuanchao said, the brake has been tampered with, then the purpose is obviously a female corpse, and now the person most closely related to this female corpse is Cha Wenbin!

Li Chenggong said: "But Cha Wenbin has alibi evidence, the car was called by someone from the Cultural Relics Bureau, and others were detained by you at that time." ”

"Can you guarantee that he didn't answer?" Qi Yuanchao said: "Those who do their business, the division of labor is very clear, the one in the field is in charge of the field, and the one who runs the dock is the one who runs the dock, someone is responsible for stealing, someone is responsible for selling, the female corpse is recognized as a miracle, since they have unearthed such a precious thing, how can they easily let it go?" Lao Li, I think you should control Cha Wenbin now, at that time, one of his accomplices was a butcher nicknamed Zhang and was about to confess, but unfortunately Director Wang's call came, and my deployment was completely disrupted. ”

At that time, Butcher Zhang was about to go crazy by Qi Yuanchao, and the whole person collapsed, Qi Yuanchao clearly remembered the moment he opened the door, Butcher Zhang cried and shouted: "Comrade policeman, confess, I will explain everything, you quickly get me out, I will say everything......"

Li Chenggong thought about it and said: "I'll tell you first, these are your inferences, you can't move Cha Wenbin without actual evidence." I can help you go to Cha Wenbin and talk to him once, this matter is very important now, if it is really a little bit bad, neither of us can eat and walk around. ”

Qi Yuanchao hated Cha Wenbin a little, he decided that the Taoist priest who was chattering with gods was the mastermind, and the so-called gods and ghosts were just tricks he used to cover up his crimes, and the ridiculous thing was that the leader still believed it, he was bound to get justice for himself, and to bring that guy to justice as a "tomb robber"! So he patted his chest and promised: "Lao Qi, I guarantee with my personality, if something really goes wrong and delays things, I will resist alone, and I will never drag you into the water!" ”
