Chapter Seventy-Two: The Mass Grave (Third Update, Asking for Tickets)
"On the seventh day of April, there was a murder case in Dongzhangzhuang Village. The victim, Zhang Xiaomei, was eight months pregnant and died by asphyxiation. ”
After preliminary questioning at the scene, Zhang Xiaomei did not return after going out alone on the evening of the sixth day of the new year, and found her body in the weeds next to the bank of the Xiaoping River the next day.
After examination, the neck of the corpse showed a groove-like indentation left by the compression of the rope, without interruption or elevation. The depth of the whole groove is more consistent, and at the place where the rope is knotted, the groove intersects, and there is the indentation of the rope knot.
There were signs of fighting and unrest at the scene. The victim struggled to resist, and there were injuries to the victim's head, face, and limbs.
It was preliminarily concluded that the deceased should have been strangled from behind. Because on the back of the body that was strangled on its back, it was found that there were abrasions on the back, accompanied by subcutaneous bleeding. ”
The above paragraph describes that when Wang Yu was looking at this case, he wrote a pre-made autopsy report, as well as the estimated time of death and injuries of the victim Zhang Xiaomei.
As for why Wang Yu thinks this case is suspicious, it mainly focuses on the two points of pregnant women and murder, which are more in line with the reasons for the formation of mother-child trouble.
This file was specially taken out, and Wang Yu also showed it to several other people.
After a preliminary conclusion, everyone also agreed that the mother-son evil that appeared in Yanzhou was likely to be related to Zhang Xiaomei.
Otherwise, how to explain these coincidences.
In April, Zhang Xiaomei was murdered by the river while she was pregnant with Liujia, and since July, a mother and son have appeared from Pingyi Town and began to cause trouble around Qubu.
There are three months in between, although the time does not seem to be enough to form a mother-son evil, but if Feng Shui helps each other, and the mother and son have hatred, it is not impossible for this to happen.
Thinking of this, Wang Yu couldn't help asking:
"I wonder if this murderer has ever been apprehended?"
"The official also sent people to investigate day and night, but this Zhang family is not evil to others on weekdays, so there is no way to investigate it, and over time, it has become an unsolved case."
Wang Yu is not surprised by this conclusion.
If the murderer is arrested, the mother and son will not become angry because of resentment. But when I heard that this magistrate didn't even have the slightest clue, I was still a little disappointed.
Just when everyone was silent, Yang Pu got up and suggested:
"Anyway, now that I have a trace of eyebrows, how to say that I have to go to the cemetery of the little sister to see, if it is really this little sister, when the child has not yet arrived, the power of this mother and son will be weakened, we will kill it while it is not prepared, what do you think?"
Wang Yu was silent for a while, and he wanted to refuse directly, but after Qin Yu brought the two Dao Masters of the Zhengyi Sect to come, he was discussing.
But Zhang Miao on the side pulled his sleeve, so he didn't say anything.
On the contrary, several other people were a little eager to try, and their previous fears were also moved by Yang Pu's sentence "When the child has not yet arrived, the power of this mother and son will be weakened".
This is extremely ferocious, if you wait for it to appear tonight before you do it, the danger factor will increase dramatically, and it will even cause casualties.
But if it's time to be sure, and make a move.
First, you can be caught off guard, and secondly, as Yang Pu said, take advantage of the weakening of the power of this son and mother, and the chances of success will be much greater.
Therefore, when Yang Pu just finished speaking, Tongwenguan and the others naturally responded immediately.
As for the people from Yunfei Academy, they watched for a while.
However, after seeing that Mo Yunqi also nodded slowly after a while, and after agreeing, they all agreed.
Because before coming out this time, Dean Lu Li said that all actions and decisions this time are subject to Mo Yunqi.
The people of Yunfei Academy and Tongwen Hall agreed.
Seven against two.
Although the rest of Wang Yu and Zhang Miao were reluctant to go over now, they still thought about waiting for Qin Yu and the people from the Zhengyi Sect to come before making a decision.
But at this time, the situation had to follow everyone's decision.
Now that it has been decided to set off at this time, it is natural that there will be no waste of time.
After inquiry, everyone learned that it turned out that this kind of person who died by mistake was not allowed to enter the ancestral grave according to local customs, so they were all buried in mass graves.
The location of the mass grave is thirty miles southwest of Pingyi Town, and if you set off on horseback now, you should be able to arrive before 9 o'clock in the evening.
The sun slowly sets over the peaks.
The moon rises and the night begins to cover.
At this moment, the nine people rode horses, wearing the stars and catching the moon towards the mass grave.
The summer mountain breeze blows with a little coolness on the body.
An hour later, the crowd followed the path up the hill and finally came to the mass grave.
In the hazy moonlight, on the hillside in the distance, there were piles of small mountain bags everywhere. Some of them have a wooden plank in front of them as a tombstone, while others only have a bare bag.
This place is full of ghosts, and before everyone gets close, they feel a yin qi coming from the surface, which makes people chill down their spines.
"This place is full of yin, and the people buried in it are all people who have died, even if the mother and son are not Zhang Xiaomei, I'm afraid it's not a good place."
"It's all here, why don't you leave now?"
The rest of the people were talking about it.
And at this time, Yangpu, who was the first to propose to come here, stood up at this moment and said:
"The situation we got from Governor Yang, the mother and son both appeared after the time of the child, take this opportunity, let's go to dig up Zhang Xiaomei's grave first to see if the body has changed.
If you find something wrong, you will take this opportunity to destroy its body, greatly damage its strength, and then surround it, and you will definitely win the battle! ”
Wang Yu and Zhang Miao did not comment, because they did not approve of it now.
The rest of the people nodded slightly, feeling that this was reasonable.
It is time to weaken it while it is unprepared, and then completely eradicate it, so that not only can the problem of mother-child trouble be solved as quickly as possible, but also the danger can be minimized.
It can be said that there is no problem with this decision, and it is more in line with today's situation.
After two months of changes, no one knows how powerful the mother and son are at this time, if they deal with it according to the previous idea, it will inevitably cause great damage, and even the total destruction of nine people is possible.
After discussing the details, the horses were tied up and walked along the path of the grave.
Most of the mass graves are old graves that have been around for many years.
Although Zhang Xiaomei was buried nearly half a year ago, it is still too new compared to these graves that have existed for several years or even decades.
It didn't take much time for everyone to find Zhang Xiaomei's grave.
It is no different from other mounds, a simple raised mound, a tombstone that has fallen, and it is a sigh of hope.
Some people even thought so in their hearts: If it is the same after his death, presumably this resentment will not be much smaller than Zhang Xiaomei.
Several people glanced at each other, and according to the previous decision, the two people with a slightly lower realm began to dig the grave, which was also to ensure that if there was an accident later, the people with a higher realm would be able to react in time.
As the dust flies in the moonlight.
Originally, the pit was not dug too deep when it was buried, and the pitch-black coffin inside was soon revealed. A thin layer of covering soil covered the lid of the coffin, and the top of the coffin was not even half a meter from the ground.
When Wang Yu and the others saw this, they couldn't help but sigh, and they felt a little pity for this woman in their hearts.
But just as everyone was about to open the coffin, a sharp baby cry suddenly sounded under the night sky.
Hearing this, the faces of everyone present changed.
But before everyone could react from their shock, a woman's mournful cry followed.
The pitch-black coffin exposed in the moonlight emitted a cloud of black yin qi at this moment, and then two blood-red figures, one large and one small, flew out of it.
When everyone saw this, they all exclaimed.
"Mother and son!"
