Chapter 44 - Coiled keel
After finally comforting Li Erya and Zhang Yicheng, Zhang Guozhong got into Liu Dongsheng's car with a smile on his wife and children. Liu Dongsheng also found that the atmosphere was not right, and he smiled symbolically at Li Erya and Zhang Yicheng, and he kicked the accelerator and ran away.
After arriving at the Hongqiao Branch, Zhang Guozhong's identity was introduced as an ancient character expert. He led to the anatomy room. At this moment, the forensic doctor of the Hexi Branch had already returned with the samples. The forensic doctor in charge of Hongqiao was named Wei. According to the forensic doctor Wei, these bones were found in the garbage bin in the residential area of Dahongqiao in the morning. The police are currently checking. According to the test, the blood type of the bones is exactly the same as the victim of the bone removal case, and the height is also consistent. However, after the bone splicing, it was found that the pelvic width of these remains was somewhat different from the boneless remains. Therefore, before the dnA test results were released, it is not ruled out that there are other victims.
"The knife skills are better than mine..." Looking at the bones on the anatomy bed, Forensic Doctor Wei kept sucking his teeth, "There is no meat left, and I don't know what he is going to do!"
Putting on rubber gloves, Zhang Guozhong gently picked up a leg bone and looked carefully through the light. He found that there were strings of concave marks on the bone, about a millimeter deep, and it was arranged spiral around the bone, and it was undulating a bit like an electrocardiogram for a hospital diagnosis. Since there were a lot of solidified blood and residual flesh in the concave marks, it was impossible to see what was engraved for a while, but it was certain that it was not the word. The edges of the concave marks were neat, and it looked like they were engraved with some kind of electric tool, such as a small electric drill used by a dentist to polish teeth.
"Panlong Bone?" Zhang Guozhong frowned. In the records of Zhongge and Sutu Sect, from the late Tang Dynasty to the late Southern Song Dynasty, this method of tomb-controlling was popular among the people. Generally, the burial formation used by half-loving people who could not build the "Chunlong Array" and had no way to build the "Eighteen Veins" (after the Tang Dynasty, the Eighteen Veins, which are the Eighteen Ming Dings of later generations, were explicitly prohibited by Zhongge Sects. Although this formation cost relatively low, if there is no way to find those greedy and apostate, even if there is enough money, it will be useless). The formation is called "Panlong Bone". Unlike the "Chunlong Array" and "Eighteen Veins", this formation does not require a mountain to be chiseled.
Stones do not need to kill innocent people. They can only use two bones of immortal cultivation animals to insert them into the head and tail of the coffin with "panlong patterns". Legend has it that this method is effective to different distances depending on the ability of immortal cultivation animals. If it is a "panlong bone" made of the bones of the animal that are of interest, the effective range of the theoretical range can reach a hundred feet. The closer the two bones gather, the greater the power. Since most of the comrades who use this method to conquer the tomb have limited economic capabilities, and the tombs do not form mountains like the undead in the emperor tomb. Therefore, in later generations, these animal bones were directly laid in the coffin, which strengthened the protection of the tomb owner's coffin, and was less likely to be destroyed.
In fact, the history of this kind of formation was much earlier than the "Chunlong Array" and "Eighteen Veins". Legend has it that it was already in the Han Dynasty. At that time, this was a high-level formation dedicated to high-ranking officials and nobles. However, in later generations, it was eliminated to the people after having more powerful formations (everything has an introductory period and a heyday of the genitals, and the Taoist formation is no exception. It is not the earlier it becomes more powerful. Take Maoshan as an example. The introductory period was in the Han Dynasty. After the careful study of the leaders of all generations, it reached its prosperity in the early Ming Dynasty.
Although many things have been lost, there are more new inventions). There are also many differences between various sects regarding the content of "panlong pattern". Some say it is the "soul-guiding curse", and some say it is the Yang and Yin lines*. However, because this formation disappeared after the Song Dynasty (the ruling class of the Yuan Dynasty tends to use descending techniques to control the tombs), no sect has accurate records. Therefore, when Zhang Guozhong saw these human bones engraved with concave patterns, his first reaction was the "panlong bones".
"No..." Zhang Guozhong kept frowning with the bones, "If it were a dragon bone, it should be carved on the animal. Why did you start using human bones?" Standing there, Zhang Guozhong opened his eyes once, but still couldn't see what was special about this bone.
"What? Expert Zhang, what tricks do you see?" At this moment, Forensic Wei was also curious, thinking that this expert was holding a human bone and closing his eyes. What is this for?
"Oh... this... is probably not a text..." Zhang Guozhong didn't dare to tell the truth, so he could only make excuses first. If he really explained the so-called "dragon bone" to this forensic doctor Wei, he would probably have to start from the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements at the beginning. If you believe it or not, you can't afford it alone...
"Oh..." After hearing Zhang Guozhong's opinion, Forensic Doctor Wei nodded in sweat, thinking that the level of this expert...it seems to be similar to that of himself...
"How is it? What are you finding?" Liu Dongsheng is not a fool. After leaving the Hongqiao Branch with Zhang Guozhong, he directly found a small restaurant and ordered two dishes. "Look, you seem to have discovered something?"
"I've discovered it... but I'm not sure..." Zhang Guozhong told Liu Dongsheng the details of "Dianlong Bone". "I can only say it looks like a disk dragon bone... because there are three points that cannot be confirmed..." Zhang Guozhong said, "First, a disk dragon bone has been lost for nearly a thousand years. If that thing is really a disk dragon bone, why did it appear today; Second, the real disk dragon bone should be carved on animal bones, why did it appear on human bones? Third, the disk dragon bone is a tomb-guarding thing, inserted in a coffin. Now, the family is held in a funeral, especially in the north, most of them are cremated, and only one urn. Even if there is a burial, most of them are in the countryside. There is no burial with them, so it's meaningless to make that thing! So I can only say that it looks like a disk dragon bone, but it's hard to say whether it's specific..."
"You mean... this thing is used to prevent tomb robbery?" Liu Dongsheng couldn't understand. In his own impression, what mechanisms are most of the anti-theft measures of ancient tombs? When can they be used to prevent theft when two bones are inserted?
"Brother Liu, to be honest, these anti-theft methods are much more powerful than those secretly in the short term! The validity period is much longer, so don't underestimate it! I don't know how powerful this dragon bone is, but if it is really like the book records, even the Han Dynasty royal family has used it, I guess it's not a good person!"
After hearing what Zhang Guozhong said, Liu Dongsheng was also confused. Although he didn't want to be led into a misunderstanding, the current behavior of calculating bones was not sure of the motive for the crime! If it was really like Zhang Guozhong said, this thing might be something used in ancient tomb custody, what did the criminal want to do? Could it be that thing to hide? "By the way, Lao Zhang, I heard that ancient people used some messy methods to deal with the corpse, which could make the corpse come alive, just like just dead. Do you think that bone belongs to ancient people?" At this moment, Liu Dongsheng remembered the situation of Liangzi at that time. After seven days of death, even the forensic doctor thought that the death was less than twelve hours. If this bone was really an ancient corpse treated with some yin energy, it would save you from checking out the missing person like a needle in a haystack...
"Impossible..." Zhang Guozhong was determined.
"For... why?" Liu Dongsheng didn't expect Zhang Guozhong to deny it so happily.
"Because there are flies!" Zhang Guozhong smiled slightly, "I found a fly flying in the corridor outside the dissection room! If it was really an ancient corpse, if it could be preserved like that, then a large amount of yin energy would be contained in its bones, and there would be no mosquitoes within a hundred steps! And if it was really an ancient corpse, there would definitely be a smell (that is, the smell emitted by yin energy,)... I didn't smell it!"
"Then..." Liu Dongsheng said nothing, "I won't say it anymore! Have a meal first! Why do you say that thing for dinner?"
...
One week later.
Zhang Guozhong drove Li Erya and Zhang Yicheng back to Tianjin from Beidaihe. He found a police car parked at his doorstep. Originally, the whole family thought it was Liu Dongsheng who had come to hot-skinned again, but when he drove closer, it seemed that the police car was not the one that Liu Dongsheng often drove. The policeman standing under the car smoking did not seem to be Liu Dongsheng, at least he was much shorter than Liu Dongsheng.
"Uncle Zhu?" Zhang Yicheng frowned. The person standing at the door of his house was nothing but Xiao Zhu.
Seeing Zhang Guozhong's car driving, Xiao Zhu hurriedly threw away the cigarette butts in his hand and trotted to meet him, "Oh! Brother Zhang! You're back! I've been waiting for me all night!"
"Hey? Xiao Zhu, why are you? Where is your captain?" Zhang Guozhong pulled the handbrake and opened the door and got out of the car.
"Oh! Brother Zhang..." Xiao Zhu looked anxious, almost like he couldn't find the toilet with diarrhea. "Come on, let's talk here..." After looking at Li Erya and Zhang Yicheng in the car, Xiao Zhu simply pulled Zhang Guozhong aside, "What a big deal! You have to help this time no matter what! Otherwise, Team Liu would really explain!"
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious! If you have something to do, say it slowly!" Zhang Guozhong handed a cigarette, "What's wrong with Lao Liu?"
"What a fucking urging!" Xiao Zhu lit a cigarette and began to speak hesitantly.
It turned out that two days ago, a thief was arrested on the spot by plainclothes on duty while carrying a bag on the bus, but the owner was not found. Later, the police opened the bag and found that the bag contained a bloody jacket. After a dnA test, it was proved that the blood on the clothes was from the victim of the bone-bone case. In addition to the blood, the clothes also had the words "The Eighth Reducer Factory of Jinan, Shandong Province" printed on it, which seemed to be a work clothes. Because it was impossible to determine whether the owner of the clothes was the victim or the murderer, Liu Dongsheng, as the head of the task force, had to take someone to Shandong in person.
After arriving in Shandong, after verification, the Eighth Reducer Factory did expel a worker named Zhou Wenqiang due to theft not long ago, but the photo of this person was not similar to the restored image of the victim of the bone-cutting case. The task force suspected that this person was suspected of committing the crime. After inquiry, it was learned that this person was from Shuangru Village, Changqing County. The task force then went to investigate under the leadership of the local public security organs, but it didn't matter if this was not investigated. Once the investigation was investigated, something happened...
