Chapter 8: The Corpse

Feng Xue, who had forgotten what she was thinking, suddenly noticed Zhang San who was worried on the side, and immediately put on a serious expression and said, "You first think about where your mistake came this time, and then give me a 3,000-word review." ”

"Yes, teacher!" Zhang San never thought this review was so cute, since the teacher asked him to write a review, he would definitely not expel himself from the teacher.

"Okay, don't be this little girl posturing. Feng Xue waved her hand, didn't say anything more to him, and turned her head to chat with Luo Xianling, in fact, when the matter came here, he and Zhang San could go home, but the psychological shadow caused by the previous deaths still made him determined to wait for the result.

Feng Xue didn't leave, and Zhang San didn't dare to propose to go home, so everyone just nested in the county government and chatted awkwardly until the official escorted Mi Shi back to the ya.

The leading officer seemed to have made some discoveries, and without waiting for Feng Xue to ask, he saluted and said:

"Yu Gongzi, we did dig up the leftovers, but half of them were missing......

"Missing soft-shelled turtles?" Feng Xue's face became more and more strange, it was impossible for this Mi clan to eat something that he knew was poisonous, right?

Seeing Feng Xue looking at him with surprised eyes, Mi immediately kowtowed, until he saw blood on his forehead, and then shouted: "I really buried it! I buried it all together! If I knew that there was a problem with the soft-shelled turtle and disposed of it, then it would be good to just say that I couldn't eat all the leftovers! I really buried the soft-shelled turtle with other leftovers!"

Feng Xue's brows furrowed even tighter, because all this was too unreasonable, even if the beast gouged it away, it was impossible to just take away the soft-shelled turtle and bury other things back untouched! Could it be that the soft-shelled turtle ran away on its own?

As soon as this thought appeared, it burned Feng Xue's heart like a wildfire, he always felt that there was something wrong with it, but the feeling of an empty head made it difficult for him to concentrate and think.

He now very doubted that the soft-shelled turtle was some kind of mythical creature cub with the ability to regenerate at high speed, but because his metaphysics was only 14 points, and his mythological knowledge was only three points, he didn't dare to roll the dice.

"The danger may come from two aspects, one is that the unknown poison may spread with the disappearance of soft-shelled turtles, polluting the land and water. The second is that the turtle may be some kind of mythical creature, and it is not dead, and it may come back to take revenge......"

Feng Xue pinched her swollen head hard, forcibly bracing up her spirit to think about the key to the problem, but her brain was so weak that she couldn't think of anything.

At this moment, a servant suddenly ran outside the door and reported: "The county order has arrived." ”

"it, that's right!" Feng Xue's brain exploded, and the content that he hadn't remembered before was immediately connected.

The soft-shelled turtle is gone, but there are still corpses!

Immediately said:

"Luo County Order, let's go and have a look, by the way, let people prepare a wet cloth to cover their mouth and nose, I'm worried that the poison may spread. ”

"Oh, good!"

At this time, Luo Xianling also realized that something was wrong, and immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare, and then a group of masked people walked towards the morgue in such a mighty way.

In these years, there was no Yizhuang, most of the people who died would be buried directly, those who had money bought a coffin, those who had no money to wrap a straw mat, and only those bodies involved in the murder case would be stored in the morgue specially designated by the yamen, waiting for an autopsy.

It's just that......

"What about the corpse?" Luo Xian Ling looked at the straw mat with only one set of clothes left, and his face suddenly turned pale, like an angry lion, and shouted at the official in charge of guarding.

"I, we don't know! The brothers have been guarding the door, and no one has ever entered it! Besides, this morgue has no windows, and no one can take such a big corpse out!"

Feng Xue was not calm at all this time, if the soft-shelled turtle was gone, it was possible that Mi lied or forgot, but such a big corpse suddenly disappeared, this must be a mysterious event!

So, he immediately made a decision, and casually pointed to the official who came with him:

"Who's that, you go and get Wu Zhu!"

"Witch ...... Wu Zhu?" The official who was pointed out by Feng Xue had a strange face, Wu Zhu, in the eyes of the common people, he was a bigger man than the officials and nobles!

In this year, sacrifice is an important thing in the country, not to mention those big witch blessings in the national capital, it is this kind of small witch blessing in the county, that is also to say that if you sacrifice to the sky, you will have to sacrifice to the sky!

"Let's just say that it may be a big matter related to the safety of the entire Sheyang County! If you don't come, go to the county marquis and say that I will take care of everything!" Feng Xue glared, although he knew that the county marquis's cousin always thought about whether there was a chance to sacrifice him to the sky, but he still gave the opportunity to the other party.

He actually saw this very clearly.

Now that the soft-shelled turtle and the carcass have evaporated out of thin air, it is almost certain that there is a mysterious event, and a mysterious event means danger.

Whether the corpse becomes a zombie, a ghost, a ghost, or is stolen by the monster to vent his anger and retrieve the eaten part, nothing good will happen in the future!

Falsely report the danger, offend Wu Zhu, and gamble with the merits on your body, but if you let the monster go, no one can save it!

And in this remote county, a broken place where there is not even a famous mountain within a radius of thousands of miles, the monks who can subdue demons and eliminate demons basically don't think about it, Feng Xue can think of something related to mysterious events, and there is only one sacrifice host who will embarrass him for most of the day every year.

"Don't go yet!" Luo Xian Ling glared and added, the official immediately reacted, and the girl rushed out, and that speed made Feng Xue deeply realize that the Honghuang Terran and the Terran in his previous life were not the same breed at all.

Even this kind of civilian, who looks yellow-faced and thin, was a monster who won all the awards of the Olympic Games in his previous life.

Taking advantage of the fact that the official went to ask Wu Zhu, he began to scout in the room, although he felt that there was a high probability that there would be no problem, after all, if the toxin really spread, the guards outside would have been cold a long time ago.

But he was careful, he still wore a damp cloth mask and carefully patrolled the room.

In fact, there is nothing to see, Sheyang County is a small county, there is no homicide in a few months, the morgue Li is on that straw mat, flat collapsed on a long table, at this time there is only one set of clothes left on the straw mat, although the fabric is average, but the style is decent, elbows, knees, cuffs and other parts have no patches, it should not be a style that farmers will wear.

"Is this dress from the deceased?" Feng Xue cautiously did not reach out to touch the dress, but just turned her head to the official and asked.

"Yes, I wore this before the corpse was delivered. The official guarding the door replied, and Feng Xue looked at the Luo County Order again-

"The county order said before that the initial examination of the injury, have you ever taken off your clothes?"

"No, no, just a rough check. The county magistrate shook his head, and the preliminary inspection was to lift the clothes and see, except for the pretending and tomb robbers, who would take off the clothes of the dead?

"Then can't this corpse take off its clothes by itself?" Feng Xue said this, the vest couldn't help but feel a little cold, even if the monster ate the corpse, there was no reason to leave an intact piece of clothing!

After thinking about it, Feng Xue finally chose to gamble on her luck, and said secretly in her heart:

"Detective determination. ”

"Bone ......"

..........................................

ps: Mythological knowledge corresponds to the Cthulhu Mythos knowledge in the COC, and metaphysics corresponds to the occultism in the COC, the biggest difference between the two is that the occult is still a category that mortals can understand, such as the Book of Mountains and Seas, Liaozhai, Demonology, and the Bible, which can be counted as metaphysics/occultism, while mythological knowledge is something beyond the scope of mortals, such as the true names of gods, certain methods of sacrifice, etc., these knowledge itself has power, and simply understanding it will affect people.

And in application, mythological knowledge is much higher than the level of occultism, and in the case of lower levels, metaphysics/ The occult may also come in handy, such as identifying the types of some monsters (after all, the Classic of Mountains and Seas), understanding the symbols of some symbols, and at a high level, for example, if you see a large array, even if the occult determines that even if it is successful, you will at most know that this is indeed a real formation, and even if it is successful, you will be able to know what this formation is called and what is the use, and if the mythological knowledge is successful, it may let you know how to crack this big array, and if it is successful, it is even possible to learn it directly- Of course, at this time, there will be other judgments, but as a reward for great success, there will be no punishment even if the next judgment or big failure such as perception and luck fails, at most it is [It's a pity that you didn't grasp this inspiration and didn't learn anything].
