Chapter 121 Going down the mountain (first update)
Wu Chen frowned and asked: "You said that you were framed to death. The murderer must have an agenda. Did you have any money when you were alive?"
< br>“We have all traveled here, and we have natural Some money..."
"Aren't you from Yang'an County?"
"No, but here, it is difficult for family members to find out even if they report it to the official. We, we want to go back and see. Can’t even look at it.”
"Did that old master plan to harm you?"
"I don't know."
"I don't know?" Wu Chen's eyes widened.
“We were all traveling together in Laojie Mountain, admiring the beautiful scenery, drinking and composing poems. Suddenly we fell into unconsciousness. When we woke up, we were separated from yin and yang, and our bodies were abandoned deep in the mountains and forests. Fortunately, There are no wild beasts in the mountains, and they are not eaten..."
"You all suffered the same fate?"
"We asked each other and the encounters were the same."
"Where are the companions you are playing with?" Wu Chen asked.
“We haven’t seen their bodies, nor their souls, so we suspect that it may be those friends who murdered us. After we died, all the valuable things we had were lost.”
< br>"Your friend...that's not right, you died at different times. We can’t be the same group of friends after a few years, right?”
“Probably not. We are from different places. I died earlier. I didn’t see them when they were killed, not even once. That’s all, I didn’t even see a few of them being killed..."
"Have you never seen a corpse thrown away?"
"No, I don't even know how my bones got to the depths of the mountain forest."
"When you were alive, Do you have anything similar with you?" Wu Chen asked.
“Jade pendants, we all brought family heirloom jade pendants.”
“It’s jade again.” Wu Chen muttered, and then asked: “Do you guys know about the five jade pendants under the mountain half a month ago? Who killed the Hundred Soldiers? ”
"Who was so embarrassed that I didn't see it? Instead, I saw someone taking their bodies off the carriage and throwing them at the foot of the mountain. They also sent a lot of horses."
Wu Chen's eyes widened and he blurted out: "They are not He was killed at the foot of the mountain!"
"Probably not, if If it is really at the foot of the mountain, with so many people dead, there must be some movement, and we will know."
Wu Chen walked around twice and asked again: "It was already dark when they dropped the bodies. ?”
“Yes, it’s close to midnight”
"Can you see any special signs on the carriage that transported the corpse?"
"I didn't see it, but the carriage was very big. It came and went, came and went, and it took several trips."< br>
Wu Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment, took a deep breath and said:
"In this way, I will first record your names, where you are from, and where you live, and then I will collect your information tomorrow. bones, Send someone to notify your family, and then find out whether your friends are still alive. When your family comes to take you home, there will always be some clues about the cause of your death. Then you can decide whether to go back and have a look, and then make an end. Chen Nian, if you want to enter reincarnation, you should wait until the murderer is found out before leaving."
Several ghosts nodded one after another. One ghost nodded a little too hard and his head fell off. He quickly caught it and put it back.
Wu Chen looked at the old Taoist who was sitting slumped aside and said: "Get the pen and ink, the writing desk, and hold the lamp."
The old Taoist then realized that it was already dark.
How can there be writing in a dilapidated Taoist temple? But the old man still fetched it from the backyard, followed by several people who dressed themselves as ghosts.
Wu Chen asked his sophomore year to write. Wu Chen said that he had done this kind of thing before in his sophomore year of high school. His hands were not as shaking as the first time and he finished recording it quickly.
Wu Chen said to the second year of high school and Xu Da: "Let the policemen be sent to these counties as soon as possible. Don't mix up the names. It must be clear who is in which county. Explain the case to the people in each county. , let them notify the family members to claim the bones as soon as possible..."
When Wu Chen said this, he suddenly turned his head and looked into the air and asked: "You are all bones now, how can you tell who is who?"
"We know it ourselves."
Wu Chennao He scratched his forehead and said, "I can't follow Your family members said that it was you who said that this white bone is Qian Chuan and that white bone is Lu Ming.”
“Well, what should I do?”
“Headband. , our hairbands are different!”
"Yes, there are shoes! We came here at different seasons, and the thickness of our shoes are also different. Although our bodies are bones, we can still recognize these things."
...< br>
Several ghosts expressed their opinions one after another. Wu Chen waved his hand to interrupt them and said;
"Tomorrow there will be ghosts going up the mountain. When your family members come to claim the bones, they will take away your missing young people." Please write down the identity and put the relics and bones in one place. I will let you confirm it and then just say that it was done by someone else. I think your family members can also confirm your bones based on the time.”
< br>After hearing this, the old Taoist couldn't hold on any longer. He looked at Wu Chen's serious expression, slumped on the ground and asked: "You, are you not acting, are you? You, you can really see..."
Wu Chen looked at the old Taoist and said seriously: "So, you'd better tell me what you're hiding. If I find out, you will be punished severely!"
A man pretending to be a ghost knelt on the ground. Said: "We, we just pretend to be ghosts to scare people and defraud some money, nothing." , I have never committed any murder.”
The second grade student asked quickly: “How can you cheat money by pretending to be a ghost?”
“You can take the money away if you faint.”
"Who will stay on the mountain at night?" Xu Da asked.
"We mainly go out at dusk. It's too dark and we don't dare to run around."
"The three of them are helping you explore the way? See if there is anyone else on the mountain. Where is he?" Wu Chen asked.
The old man nodded.
“Take them all away and go up the mountain tomorrow!”
……
Wu Chen thought that it would be difficult to search the Taoist temple with just the three of them tonight, and there was no torch lighting. He could bring people up during the day tomorrow to search more carefully.
For Wu Chen, today's harvest was great. There were some problems that he couldn't figure out before, but now he figured it out. The five hundred soldiers were not killed at the foot of the mountain, but were poisoned elsewhere and took advantage of the night. It was transported back here and placed randomly, so it was not seen by more people.
Why did Zhang Cai see it? Are you seeing the arranged corpses, or the process of placing them? Is Zhang Cai one of theirs, or is it just a coincidence?
The people behind the scenes did not choose to cover it up, but changed the place to deliberately let people find out. They had time to transport it here, so naturally they had time to bury it on the spot, even if it would not be long before someone discovered it. It was discovered that it would be difficult to find any clues. Why did they insist on dumping the body at the foot of Laojie Mountain?
Wu Chen was walking on the way down the mountain. He was the first one. He kept thinking about these questions in his mind, but his eyes kept looking around, looking for lonely souls and wild ghosts.
He wanted to know more clues.
