Chapter 476: Earbells, Gray Bones
Pieces of bone, the largest of which were the size of the knuckles of the little finger, were pulled out. Not much.
Di Ying thought about it for a while and asked Xie Jing to find a few sieves of varying thicknesses.
Then sieve the ash.
With this method, it was really fast, and many small bones were sifted out.
And what was sifted out was an earbell.
A blackened earbell.
Xie Jing didn't know him, and asked curiously, "My lord, what is this?" Looks like ...... Pearl? And these little bones, what are they? Fishbone? ”
Di Ying: "...... What kind of fish have you seen that have bones that are large and small, thick and thin, and have bends and crutches? ”
Xie Jing thought about it.
Blinking his peach blossom eyes, he said, "Sea beasts? ”
Di Ying: "...... You have a point. ”
Xie Jing smiled and bent his peach blossom eyes, "My lord, just talk about it." ”
Di Ying nodded. He first twisted a small bone and said, "If I'm not mistaken, these are all human bones." And this piece is the small residue of the tip of the human elbow. ”
Xie Jing covered his eyes: "...... I guessed...... If you want to be interested in adults, it must be bones and the like. ”
Peng Liang nodded approvingly.
Zhou Rin's only a pair of deer eyes flickered.
This time, the adults only brought the three of them. The rest of the guards, the old rule: stand by after falling.
Di Ying's idea of fighting a sea boat, this can't be known to too many people.
"My lord, what is this black lump? This man's bones have been burned like this, why can't he be detected? Curious, Xie Baobao continued to ask.
Di Ying smiled and handed the earbell to Xie Jing, "Put it away." This is the earbell. At present, it is highly likely that the deceased is a woman, or perhaps, a noble lady from a wealthy family. ”
Xie Baobao: "??? My lord, who has a bell in his ear? It's not a cow or a horse. Also your lady? They are afraid of stepping on ants when they walk, is it because they are afraid of hitting people, so they will wear earbells to remind others?
I know that the bell hung on the carriage is called the avoidance bell, which is used as a reminder when traveling at night and being afraid of bumping into people when the lights are blind. That's what the earbell does, right? ”
Di Ying: "...... Poor, almost? ”
After thinking about it, he explained it in detail: "In the past, men and women were very heavy. Women are not allowed to come into contact with foreign men. Especially in large households, even uncles, fathers-in-law, and men over the age of seven are not easily seen. ”
Xie Jing understood. "Oh, I see. When the lady arrived, the ringing rang, and the rest of the men avoided it when they heard the voice, so as not to be embarrassed and misunderstood, or to cause some unnecessary trouble, right? ”
"Hmm."
Di Ying nodded, and then smiled and said, "It seems that it is, it was your lady who shook her head when it was inconvenient to reply."
For example, when the rest of the men knocked on the door to find their husband, if the husband was not there, the lady shook her head and signaled with a bell. The man would walk away.
Actually, I was thinking: it's really rigorous to that point, so ...... Can those men knock on people's doors at will?
There is a gate and there is a subordinate...... If there is no courtyard gate, it is not a noble family. ”
Speaking of this, Di Ying's tone paused for a moment, then frowned and thought about it, and then said with a smile: "Maybe I thought wrong." If it's between ordinary civilians, you can knock on the courtyard door. The lady inside can also shake her head. People outside the hospital will leave when they hear the bell.
So ......"
He took the earbell from Xie Jing's hand again, and said again: "It seems that it shouldn't be a too expensive woman." Gold or silver, if it can burn human bones at such a high temperature, can melt completely, or at least deform. There will never be such a complete reason.
Then this should be made of iron. Very few people pay attention to wearing earbells now, and the age of the deceased ...... Let's wait until the detailed examination is done. ”
Now, what I found was some broken bones and an earbell, and it was really hard to say what was specific.
Di Ying looked around.
On the other hand, he also asked Peng Liang and the others to look around.
The person who burned the corpse did not remove the earbell of the deceased, so what about the other earbell? Will you not even take off the other jewelry?
Xie Jing found it.
A few people were looking for them on the ground and on the beach, and Xie Jing was looking for them in the cracks of the stones.
Find a snake.
And he was mischievous, and ran away with the serpent with a branch.
When he saw that the snake had returned to the hole, he dug it open.
The snake was so angry that he wanted to bite him, but he finally picked it up with a folding fan and threw it away. Then continue to dig people's nests.
And he dug out a silver hairpin.
Di Ying gave him a thumbs up.
Xie Jing smiled: "When we used to be in the mountains, we used to do it when we were bored. My master said that snakes like shiny things. And I thought, what if? Sometimes we can dig out pieces of gold and silver from the snake's nest in the mountains. ”
Di Ying: "...... Your master is really good at making money. ”
Xie Jing nodded violently.
Zhou Rin's pair of deer eyes also showed some curvature slightly.
Di Ying took the silver hairpin again.
The style is old, there are scratches, and it is a little dull. There are no traces of being burned by fire.
"It seems that the age of the deceased was at least forty years old. I remember seeing this style in the buns of some women of that age. ”
"Then my lord, I'll go to the nearest fishing village and ask?" Xie Jing understands in seconds.
Di Ying thought for a moment, then nodded, "Yes." At the same time, I would like to ask if anyone has been buying a large amount of oil recently.
If the corpse wants to be burned like this, it must be added with fire oil. And it is also hammered after burning to form a powder. It's just that the beating is not too meticulous, so many broken bones are left. ”
Xie Jing: "...... My lord, do you think it's all you? I guess you're the only one who can find out if these are human bones. If it was someone else, it is estimated that it would be inappropriate to take a second look at this ash. ”
Di Ying: "...... Go for it. Remember to ask for the earbell when asking. After all, there is a clanging noise everywhere, and the neighbors around must have heard it. ”
"Okay." Xie Jing happily agreed, and then disappeared in a hurry.
There are no big towns here, just fishermen.
Some have gathered into a village, while others have built a stone house at will and lived by the sea to facilitate their access to the sea.
Therefore, it is messy and untidy.
Only the area where the ashes are located, because there is a large sandy beach, and it is repeatedly washed by the waves every day, but no fishermen choose to go to sea from here.
Fishermen usually choose to have a beach, but not as large, and dry as that, to camp or go to the sea.
Shipbuilding, ship repair, netting, netting, selling, drying fish and shrimp on the beach, etc.
And the pile of rocks at the end of this beach is too big and too messy. I can't build a house, and it's a big obstacle.
