Jin Shan arranged for a bone examination, the corpse no longer existed, turned into dust, rotten powder and dregs, after all, more than 40 years, there are copper coins, this is a custom to comfort the dead.

According to folk legends, people will inevitably have some crimes when they live, and when they go to the underworld, they must be rewarded and punished according to their merits and demerits. It can also be said that having money can ensure that the ancestors are not sinned, so when a person dies, he must put copper coins in his mouth. The old official put copper coins in the mouth of the deceased, so as not to come back to the official to settle accounts when he couldn't go through the road.

He asked his assistant to prepare some vinegar and slowly poured it into the bones. The bones seemed to come to life, greedily absorbing vinegar, and it didn't take long for the bones to slowly soften and decompose.

This was a critical moment, and he immediately seized the time to take a closer look, and sure enough, he found that there were purple blood marks on the deceased's skull, about an inch in length. He recorded the discovery and reported it to Jin Shan.

Finally, he concluded: "The deceased had a scar on his skull, and it was judged that he had been hit to death with a blunt object." ”

Before Jin Shan could say anything, when the family members of the deceased heard it, they immediately couldn't hold their breath, and the crowd was in an uproar, as if a large pot of water had been boiled, gurgling, steaming, and making a sound. Suddenly, someone howled and cried, and kept shouting injustices in their mouths, and words to avenge the dead jumped out, and when Jin Shan heard it, this scene was difficult to control.

Jin Shan motioned for everyone to be quiet, probably admiring Jin Shan, believing that Jin Shan could judge. Jin Shan's order was effective, making everyone quiet suddenly, like pouring a scoop of cold water into the pot, and the water in the pot suddenly stopped boiling.

The son of the deceased, is the eldest son, has grown up at this time, and also has three children, he said to Jin Shan: "The father was arrested, it was wronged, and he began to arrest the father without finding out the facts of the case, and the father was obedient and followed the official to be interrogated, but he didn't expect the official to be uneasy and kind, and he went halfway to kill his father, the father was unjust, he died of grievance and hatred, and the official should be fully responsible, Xiaomin has no father since he was a child, and his life is very difficult, and he can't raise his head in front of his companions, These are all caused by the officials, please ask the master of the blue sky to be the master of the small people, and severely punish the murderer, in order to comfort the soul of the father in the sky. ”

"Your mood is understandable, because of your father's mysterious death, which has caused you great pain, compared with your peers, there is less father's love, this is all the arrangement of fate! However, since this official has taken over this old case, he must seriously investigate and give your father an explanation, so as not to be misunderstood and cause greater harm. What do you think? Jin Shan asked.

"Of course that's fine. I hope that the lord of Qingtian will uphold justice for Xiaomin, and redress the grievances of Xiaomin's father. Fortunately, when worshipping the deceased father and ancestors every year, it shows that the deceased father is innocent. ”

"This is natural. It's not that hard! Jin Shan said, "Let's handle the case, we won't let go of a bad guy, and we won't wronged a good person." Jin Shan said.

Hearing this, the old servant, who had always had his ears behind his ears and his eyes dim, walked over crookedly, he really had a good life, he often ate meat, and his face was ruddy, not like an old man, but a little rejuvenated.

He raised his voice and said: "The old decay is almost in the ground, but the facts are the facts, the facts speak louder than words, and the old decay knows that I didn't kill people if they are useless." The tolerance tolerance is to be completed conscientiously after receiving the task, and you can't give up halfway, otherwise, if you don't do this, you won't be a public person. When the old man was ordered to arrest, it was not a person who had nothing to do to catch people and play, but when he received the task, he had to work hard to complete it. If you want to complete the task, you have to stick to it for a while. Because the opponent is too strong and does not shoot easily, this is the most dangerous and deadly way to play, and it is the rhythm of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots. The old man has no grievances or hatred with the deceased, and there is no intersection, no resentment, so why kill him? ”

"You didn't kill him? How do you explain this? Say! The deceased's eldest son asked.

"He didn't kill him, he got sick and died. If I kill him, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky, and I will be hit by a carriage and killed immediately when I go out. He is old and old, and he has no more years to live. Damn! The old servant said.

When he had finished speaking, the eldest son of the deceased fell silent, and looked at the old servant's beard that was white and trembling, and that it was gone when the wind blew. Why lie? It doesn't look like I'm lying. The exact cause of death is unknown. The old servant didn't know what the disease was, but he heard from Langzhong that he had an intestinal disease, and Langzhong didn't know what it was.

The eldest son of the deceased still couldn't bear the loneliness, and suddenly raised his voice and said, "My father has intestinal disease, why didn't he diagnose it?" I don't know if I'm dead or not? Is it buried before you are dead, and buried if you are not dead, which is tantamount to intentional homicide. You say it's an intestinal disease, and there's no evidence to prove it. Hurriedly buried without figuring out the cause of death, what truth are you burying? Honestly make it clear in front of the county master. It's not that you did it secretly, waiting for your family to take the money to collect the money, you never expected to be discovered, it can be seen that Skynet is magnificent and negligent, there are gods in the head, and there are eyes in the sky, and you finally didn't let go of the wicked. ”

"Master, the old man really didn't kill anyone! The old decay should not be buried, it should be buried after the local autopsy, if there is an autopsy, there will not be so much trouble today. Really, I still blame the old man for being too careless, I was in a hurry to come back to my life, I didn't expect to leave a tail, I have been entangled for more than 40 years, I knew that now, I should have done enough work at that time. The old servant said.

"What's the use of saying that? You are clearly a thief, secretly doing tricks, and then blackmailing us. Fortunately, we didn't have anything at home at that time, and the family was surrounded by walls, so we couldn't dig up the walls, and if you didn't succeed in blackmailing, you became angry with others, which was equivalent to tearing up the ticket, killing my father, and burying it on the spot. You can see how dark and vicious your heart is! The eldest son of the deceased said.

Jin Shan watched the two arguing, it seemed to make sense, but in fact it didn't make sense, if it went on like this, they would quarrel for another fifty years, and there would be no result, and this result was recognized by both sides, which was very difficult.

Jin Shan didn't say a word, he looked at the deceased carefully, mainly to see the scars on the deceased's skull, and after looking at it for a while, he said slowly: "If you want to find out the facts of the case and find out the cause of death, you have to see if the blood marks have been washed away." ”

When he heard this, from a professional point of view, he was surprised, he had never heard of this theory, his eyes widened, staring at Jin Shan, Jin Shan asked, "What's wrong?" Isn't this official right? ”

He said: "The blood stains have been in the bones for forty years, and they have long been fused, how can they be washed away? What is this theory? Where did you learn it? ”

Jin Shan ignored it, because he was worried that he wouldn't understand, and he would have to spend a long time explaining it. He just smiled and said to him, "It's better to say a thousand things than to do it." Why don't you do a test and see if you can wash away the blood? ”

The eldest son of the deceased said: "Master, my father is already like this, there is no need to toss anymore, now that the murderer is in front of him, the master can't cover it!" The executioner is old, but he does bad things like they happened yesterday. In order to make my father at peace, there is no need to toss anymore. ”

"How's that going to work? This case is an open case, and you have been fighting for decades. Now there is still the possibility of wanting to fight. In order to eliminate contradictions and prevent the continuation of hatred, it is necessary to close the case in a timely manner. lest you look up and don't look down in the future, and you will be a little embarrassed to see you. If this unsolved case is solved today, then everyone's life will be basically stable in the future, and everyone will live well. Jin Shan said.

"Your Excellency is right, the key to dying is to leave a good reputation for future generations, and not to be ashamed of old age. Adults, just make your decision! Listen carefully to the adult's decision. The old servant said.

The eldest son of the deceased saw that there was nothing he could do about it.

He instructed his assistant to bring clean water, which was very clean, and then scrubbed the purple-red part of the scar very carefully, for fear of missing something.

The eldest son of the deceased saw it most clearly, and stood in the best position, to see if it was true or not. The old servant had no way to come forward to watch, his legs and feet were not numb, and it was difficult to see things, so it was better to stand at a distance and see better.

When he was scrubbing the wounds, the blood stains were gradually washed away, and the white bones were slowly exposed, and when he looked closely, there were no cracks or dents in the bones, which was very smooth and complete, and there was no trace of injury, which undoubtedly showed that the deceased had not been hit with a blunt object or injured by other murder weapons before his death.

If you look at the rest of the deceased's bones, they are all brushed one by one, and they are all like this, there are no fractures, no scars. This undoubtedly shows that the deceased was indeed not beaten to death. It can only be said that he died of his own disease.

The eldest son of the deceased and his son looked at each other, so they had nothing to say, and lowered their heads, but refused to admit their mistakes, seeing that the old servant was still uncomfortable and unwilling to pay attention. The old servant burst into tears and said: "The old man has been entangled by this matter all these years, and today he finally let go completely, liberated the old heart, and no longer suffered, even if he dies immediately, he is happy." I want to thank the adults for their wisdom and wisdom, and they are wise in making decisions, which makes the old man very impressed, and from now on, the old man can live with his head held high and his eyebrows high, and he no longer has to be afraid. If the old decay is promoted, if it is not like this, he will definitely hold his head high and let the neighbors see, the old decay has finally been rehabilitated and treated fairly. To prevent the reputation of old decay from being damaged is to prevent future generations from being disgraced, so as not to be able to raise their heads before and after others. I would like to thank my lord, thank you, thank you and my colleagues, and thank you to the villagers present, you have witnessed this incident today, so that this matter has finally come to an end, and the old man is at peace and no longer suffering. ”

There was a commotion in the crowd, some people were talking, and the scene got out of control for a while. Jin Shan motioned for everyone to be quiet again. Everyone was obedient, and the scene returned to calm.

Jin Shan said: "Judging by common sense, there is a rule in the blood that comes out of an injury, that is, the color of the blood in the center of the wound is darker, and the farther away from the central wound, the lighter the color of the blood, but everyone can see that the purple blood marks on the skull of the deceased are contrary to this law, not normal, that is, the blood does not come from the injured part, but from other places." ”

"Where did that come from? I looked at other places just now, but I didn't get hurt. He asked.

"It must have been the blood oozing out of the corpse after the decomposition flowed to the skull, polluting the skull, and now it is found that it has created the illusion that it is the skull that is injured and bleeding and leaving blood stains, but in fact it is not, the blood is flowing in the wrong direction, and after washing, this fact was discovered, because the blood can be washed clean, and it can be seen that there are no scars on the white bones. Thus it is inferred that there is no problem. It is not an external blow to death, but only a death from one's own disease. Jin Shan said.

When everyone heard this, they secretly admired and praised one after another. He was also one of them, and he said, "The master is really discerning! Such a case, such an investigation and inquest method, and reasoning, there is no relevant record in the "Record of Clearing Grievances", it seems that it is not enough to read thousands of books, and you have to travel thousands of miles! Hahaha. ”

"That's right. The official's teacher, Bu Huishu, often taught the official to observe life carefully, experience more, think more carefully, and think more, and there will be gains. Don't stick to books, they are constantly changing, the case is also being renovated, and people must continue to learn, and they can't eat all over the world with one trick. It is still necessary to keep summarizing and learning. In this way, we can adapt to the current society. Jin Shan said.

Everyone said yes.

Jin Shan instructed that the bones be reburied, and that the inquest records be made and that the children of the deceased sign for confirmation. Then appease the relatives of the deceased, and the relatives of the deceased only admit that the open coffin autopsy is valid, proving that they were not killed by someone, but died of their own diseases, and finally relieved, and they no longer entangled. Of course, the old official is happy, and it also serves as a wake-up call for future generations, that is, you can't make decisions about doing things without authorization, and you still have to think about the long-term.

The case has been closed, and there is another case, that is, Feng Yuan's younger brother Feng Qu is rich, and he is one of the richest families in the local area.

Feng Qu and Feng Ying are neighbors.

Feng Ying's family is not very wealthy, and the house left by his ancestors is adjacent to Feng Qu's house.

However, to get to the main road, you must walk from the road in front of Feng Qu's house. There is no second road to pass.

Feng Qu saw the decline of Feng Ying's family, so he wanted to occupy his family's real estate, so he asked someone to write a letter and go to the county government to sue Feng Ying.

Feng Ying is honest and kind, honest and honest, a man, hard work, farming for people for a living, the family has a little thin field as a ration field, and the rest of the time is for others to work as a short-term job, earning some money to supplement the family.

He never thought that his honest and hard-working duty would fly into trouble and suddenly become a defendant, he felt extremely wronged, and felt that the sky was not open, so why did he bully honest people?

He wanted to cry without tears, because the tears had long since dried up.

Feng Qu wrote in the form of a paper:

"Feng Yingnai was also a vulgar person, disregarded the rules, was inconsiderate of the neighbors, deliberately made a loud noise, disturbed the neighbors' rest, forcibly walked in front of the plaintiff's house, and deliberately made the plaintiff's family sad. I specially invite Lord Qingtian to administer justice for me. Person: Feng Qu. ”
