Chapter 51: A Tragic Death

Before Liang Yuanque entered the city, he happened to meet a group of funeral people on the outskirts of the city, and the funeral regulations were simple, with no coffin and no monument, which was very simple.

If it is a poor family, it may be difficult to even do the funeral ceremony, as soon as the mat is broken, the pit is dug and buried.

But if the conditions are a little better, how can the funeral be so shabby?

As a detective, he has always been very sensitive to death, especially in the face of such a strange phenomenon, so he stepped forward to find a way to inquire a few words.

It turned out that what this group of people were going to buy today was a concubine from a rich and noble family, who was originally a concubine, and I heard that she still died sideways, so according to the rules, she should have gone to the grave casually.

But the younger brother of this concubine, who became a petty official in a higher city by chance this year, thought that his sister was very distressed when he sold herself to study, so he arranged a funeral procession, wanting his sister to leave decently in the end.

But after all, this poor girl is a concubine, and she was still a lowly member of the Qinglou before she was ransomed as a concubine, and the funeral ceremony could not be too conspicuous, and finally became like this under the arrangement of her younger brother who was an official.

Liang Yuanque was curious about the reason for the deceased's death, and it happened that the leader of the funeral procession was a big mouth, and after smoking a pack of foreign brand cigarettes given by Liang Yuanque, he talked about the story he had heard.

The lord of the deceased's family used to be wide, but unfortunately the children below have not become instruments in the past few years, and they know the Ho Ho family property every day, which is that there is a gold mountain that can't stand such a ho ho, and the family will be hollowed out in a few years, leaving an empty shell.

But this old man still wants to maintain his apparent dignity, and frequently interacts with dignitaries from all walks of life, intending to turn over one day.

This little concubine, I heard that she was given to a nobleman's bed as a gift by her master, but the nobleman may have played with fire, and the person directly played to death, but it was just a horizontal death.

Liang Yuanque sighed for a while, this world is really dirty.

Although he felt a little pity for what happened to this girl, he just listened to a story, and he didn't take this matter at ease.

Before meeting Lou Yuxin, he had inquired in the city whether there were any cases of the same type of missing girls recently, after all, when solving a case, other cases might also provide clues.

But his inquiries yielded little success, and few people heard of a girl missing in the neighborhood.

He remembered the funeral procession he had encountered on the outskirts of the city, so he had the wit to inquire about the dead, and sure enough, he found that there were several new graves on the outskirts of the city, some of which were buried with the girl, and some of which were buried with the girl's clothes.

Liang Yuanque knows that many people in this area have a will, that is, the woman who died horizontally cannot enter the ancestral hall, and cannot hold a funeral, but she must be properly buried.

Liang Yuanque couldn't find the family members of these tombs, and he couldn't prove that these dead people had anything to do with the disappearance, but he had a vague feeling in his heart that there would be some connection, and he thought that he would take some time to investigate in detail later.

As a result, there have been a lot of broken things in the past few days, and the serious ones haven't had time to investigate, so this matter has naturally been shelved.

But many developments in things are often so wonderful, he was led by Su Qingling, but he met the family of a daughter who died.

And what the uncle said aroused his great curiosity.

"Grandpa, what kind of family?"

"The Huang family on Qianlou Street!" The old man angrily threw the fire tongs in his hand to the ground, "A bunch of dirty brutes! ”

The Huang family? The funeral procession I met in the suburbs, and the old man mentioned was not surnamed Huang!

Liang Yuanque felt that his judgment was right, and there was indeed a connection between them!

So he looked at the old man with a very sincere look, "Grandpa, although it is not good to make you sad, please tell me how your sister had an accident in the Huang family, although my sister is not a servant of the Huang family, but she is also related to the Huang family." ”

The old man saw that his expression and words were sincere, and he felt that they were all poor people who shared the same disease, so he wiped his tears and spoke out.

The uncle's son and daughter-in-law passed away unexpectedly before, so he and his wife struggled to pull up his granddaughter and grandson, a few years ago, his granddaughter really felt sorry for the hard work of her grandparents, so she sold herself into the Huang family as a maid.

The Huang family is empty, and the salary given is not much, but fortunately, it is not bad for people, and the little granddaughter has started from doing chores, and has lived a peaceful life for a few years.

A few days ago, when my granddaughter came home, she dressed up beautifully, and told her grandfather that the master transferred her to be the personal maid of the eldest lady, and she would be paid more in the future.

The uncle was worried, looking at his granddaughter who was growing up, afraid that she would suffer, but the granddaughter felt that the master's family was good, so she insisted on staying and working.

As a result, after returning from this trip, the uncle did not receive news from his granddaughter for a long time, and the old man was worried and went to the Huang family to inquire, but was kicked out.

Later, he met a maid working with his granddaughter on the street, and the other party said that his granddaughter had been given away as a concubine by the master because of her beauty.

The old man hated in his heart, he would rather die in poverty at home, than let his granddaughter's concubine be wronged, and asked everywhere which family his granddaughter was sent to, and wanted to get people back.

As a result, before he could find out, the Huang family sent someone to send people back, strictly speaking, the corpse was sent back.

The family who pulled the corpse back said that his granddaughter was a fierce temper and did not want to be a concubine and hung her neck, so the main family was unlucky and sent the corpse back to the Huang family.

The Huang family naturally couldn't ask for it, so they sent it to their family again, and at the same time, the Huang family also pretended to give some money as funeral expenses.

The uncle said that his granddaughter's body was covered with scaly wounds, and her wrists and neck were cut and bled out, and she was obviously tortured to death, not hanging herself at all!

The uncle went to the Huang family to ask for an explanation, and was beaten by the family, and wanted to go to the police station to report the case, but was stopped by the Huang family, saying that if he dared to make a big scene, he would let their whole family go to hell.

And the master of the Huang family also asked their family not to set up a funeral shed for their granddaughter, just bury it, and it is best not to burn the paper money.

The uncle felt that they were deceiving people too much, and he didn't even let the paper money burn, just to humiliate them and be poor.

But Liang Yuanque didn't think so, according to his knowledge, this girl was cut her throat and wrists and bled out, and after she died, she couldn't hold a funeral or burn paper, it was like she was sacrificed to some evil art!

Many poor families do not have the money and experience to hold a funeral for each deceased, but the country has been paying attention to the funeral culture for thousands of years, and it does not mean that there is no ceremony at all.

Many people believe that only after going through these procedures can the soul of the deceased be reborn.

Don't let the funeral, don't let the paper burn, this is someone trying to trap the soul of this dead girl!

A gust of evening wind blew, and the cold hairs on Liang Yuan's spine stood up, and he shivered, thinking that Lou Yating would not be treated like this, right?

Don't mind, if Lou Yating has died tragically like this after finding someone, then his detective career will be a smash!

He stood up and decided to hurry up to find Young Master Qian, praying in his heart that Lou Yating would be warm and warm to her boyfriend!
