Chapter 31: The Second Deceased

The scroll is based on silk and covered with fine rice paper, on which two patterns are drawn.

One is a robe, and the other is a turtle belt.

The patterns on the two drawings are complex and beautiful.

Li Canghai stared at the two patterns and was simply fascinated, not to mention anything else, the complex patterns on the two patterns alone were eye-opening.

Such complex textures are simply not something that can be woven in the world. If the purple robe was really woven according to this drawing, he could only sigh that the embroidery level of Datang had reached an unprecedented height!

Li Canghai took a deep breath and calmed down his wild jumping, and then he looked at the scroll seriously.

The purple robe has a complex and exquisite pattern, embroidered with a phoenix pool, which is incomparable to the ordinary prime minister's court clothes.

As for the turtle belt, it is made of Lantian ancient jade, although it is only a pattern, but through the pattern can still be felt, the jade turtle belt is warm and elegant and ancient.

Li Canghai stared at the jade turtle belt, and the more he looked at it, the more strange he felt.

On the square jade turtle buckle on the jade turtle belt, there seems to be some strange pattern notches.

Li Canghai brought the patterns closer, he looked at them for a long time, and finally found that those patterns were actually some symbols.

Heaven, earth, wind, thunder!

Li Canghai was a little surprised, these were clearly four of the gossip symbols!

Moreover, what shocked him the most was that the shape of the jade turtle belt made him feel indescribably awkward no matter how he looked at it.

The patterns on the jade turtle belt appeared in front of him like a diorama, which made him a little upset.

For some reason, Li Canghai suddenly felt a sense of anxiety, as if there was a demon hidden in his heart, and he was desperately trying to rush out and wreak havoc.

Sensing Li Canghai's strange expression, Liang Xiu frowned slightly, hurriedly patted him, and said, "Canghai, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Canghai violently broke away from Liang Xiu's arm and laughed as if he was crazy.

This startled Liang Xiu, he watched Li Canghai's eyes become blood-red, and without saying a word, he picked up the teacup and threw it into Li Canghai's face.

There was a bang, cold water hit his face, and Li Canghai instantly sobered up.

"I, what's wrong with me?" Li Canghai wiped the tea on his face and said in a daze.

Liang Xiu's eyebrows twisted into Sichuan characters, and said, "You just seem to be hysterical, what happened?" ”

Li Canghai thought about it blankly, he looked down at the scroll in his hand, and his face instantly turned pale.

"Damn, this picture is weird!" Li Canghai was excited, he hurriedly put away the scroll, and only after his disgusted mood improved a little before he spoke: "My lord, can you lend me this picture temporarily?" ”

Liang Xiu nodded and said, "You can just take it." ”

Li Canghai breathed a long sigh of relief, he put away the scroll and put it in his sleeve.

"It seems that this purple robe, the turtle belt is not as simple as it seems, these patterns seem to be cumbersome, but in fact there are mysteries inside, what secrets are hidden in this?"

Li Canghai pinched his eyebrows and decided to study the drawings carefully after going back.

His intuition told him that the pattern on this drawing had a lot to do with the gopher door stealing the jade turtle belt.

If he can find out the secret of the pattern, he will be able to guess the purpose of the gopher gate and make corresponding countermeasures.

Li Canghai cleaned up and said a few more words to Liang Xiu about the Gopher Gate before he got up and said goodbye.

As soon as he took a few steps, before he could get out of the door, he was bumped into his arms by a panicked official.

The official looked nervous, so he hurriedly shouted: "My lord, it's not good, there is a murder!" ”

"What?" Liang Xiu, who was sitting on the chair, jumped up.

Li Canghai also retracted his raised foot, and said in shock: "Another murder?" Where is it this time? ”

"Back to ...... Back to my lord, this time it's ...... Inn. ”

Li Canghai and Liang Xiu glanced at each other, and they both saw shock and disbelief in each other's eyes, and the two of them stepped out of the threshold almost at the same time.

Luoyang Post House, I heard that there was a murder, and many pedestrians have been surrounded.

A group of officials stood at the door with a solemn expression, and when they saw Liang Xiu coming, the sweaty post man hurriedly came to salute: "My lord, you can count it as coming." ”

"There was a murder in the post house, what happened?" Liang Xiu frowned and asked.

Yi Cheng was dripping in cold sweat, and he said in a low voice: "My lord...... The lower officials also don't know what happened, the posture of the deceased...... Pretty weird. ”

"Weird?" Liang Xiu's face was a little gloomy.

"When you see it, you will understand what the lower official said." Yi Cheng wiped his sweat, his face was a little pale, and he seemed to have seen something extremely frightened.

Yicheng didn't know how to describe it, so he simply led them into the post house and let them see it for themselves.

The post house is a second courtyard, and the murder occurred in the cloister of the first courtyard.

At this time, several officials had already surrounded the corpse, completely protecting the scene, and when they saw Liang Xiu coming, they saluted and gave way.

Liang Xiu originally wondered what kind of death could be described as 'weird', but the moment he saw the corpse, he felt that a bucket of ice water was poured directly on his heels from the Heavenly Spirit Cover.

The corpse knelt in the hallway, its body twisted in an uncanny degree, as if it had been twisted in a circle.

The most chilling thing is that his hands are placed in front of his chest in the shape of claws, his face is frozen with a painful expression, and his mouth is open as if he is calling for help to the sky.

Although Li Canghai felt frightened, he could see the problem at a glance.

The posture of this corpse is exactly the same as that of the servants of the Di family, very similar to the strange stone sculptures he saw in the Senluo Palace!

Ever since he had seen the corpse of the servant, after being reminded by Di Qing that it was similar to the stone carvings he had seen in the Senluo Temple, he had gone through all the statues he had seen at that time in his mind.

So, the moment he saw this corpse, he immediately thought of those strange stone sculptures.

Those stone carvings were strange everywhere, and Li Canghai couldn't figure out why the postures of the two deceased were similar to those of the stone carvings.

"Yicheng, has the notice been made?" Liang Xiu swallowed with an ugly face, turned around and asked.

Yi Cheng bowed down and said, "Lord Hui, someone has been sent to inform you." ”

While speaking, a young man came over with a wooden box, and Li Canghai recognized him as Lao Qizuo's apprentice.

"My lord, the master's injuries have not healed, so this time the villain came to conduct an autopsy." The young man bowed to Liang Xiu.

Liang Xiu suddenly sighed this time and said, "This official has been busy with official business recently, but he forgot about Lao Liutou's injury a few days ago. But can you really do it alone? ”

Liang Xiu touched his chin, after all, the autopsy is a matter that cannot be sloppy, and every detail of the deceased may be related to the truth of the case.

The young man was silent for a moment, and said: "The master's skills, the villain has learned seven or eight points, and I ask the adult to give the villain a chance, and the villain will definitely live up to the adult's trust." ”

Liang Xiu looked at Li Canghai and wanted to ask for his opinion, when it came to the way to solve the case, Liang Xiu thought that he could not compare with him.
