Chapter 104

Xie Fu was shocked.

Three horizontal and one vertical, bow wood grows talent, and even points to the surnames of Wang Yan and Zhang Ping.

Is there really a ghost in the underworld in this world?

Wang Yan said slowly: "Are these sentences engraved by the female corpse that Lao Feng had lying in this sarcophagus when he died? He had to engrave two sentences before he died, well, he is a woman with good writing and ink."

Xie Fuxin shrank again, and it was true that Lord Feng also examined the red powder at the bottom of the coffin on the female corpse in the wooden coffin. This showed that the corpse was lying in this sarcophagus at the beginning?

Why was he moved into a red painted wooden coffin and buried vertically under a willow tree?

If the Minister Wang said, was that woman still alive in the sarcophagus?

But how did the layer of wax seal come from?

Zhang Ping said solemnly: "These sentences are carved by someone else's carvings of the corpse in this sarcophagus."

Wang Yan raised his eyebrows and glanced at him with a smile. Xie Fu then realized that everyone in the Ministry of Justice next to him was laughing, and a few even laughed out loud.

"Mr. Zhang has never handled a case with our Minister. He has misunderstood. Mr. Zhang is joking."

"Adults are afraid that the younger ones will be timid, so they tell us a joke."

"We Minister of the Secretariat are so humorous. You will know that the two of us will handle a few more cases with our Minister of the In the future."

The people of the Ministry of Justice did not completely explain the facts. In fact, every time the Ministry of Justice handles a case, especially when inspecting the body of the evidence, Tao Zhoufeng would often come to the scene in person to say some inferences, unique insights, fresh style, and refreshing. Over time, the people of the Ministry of Justice have become a habit. When handling the case, they cannot hear two words of the Lord Shangshu’s teachings, and they feel that they are short of something and are less vigorous. Therefore, every time they handle the case, if Lord Shangshu is not there, Wang Yan or other persons sponsored will follow the example of Lord Shangshu and say a few words to warm up the scene.

Tao Zhoufeng acted kindly and treated politely. Everyone in the Ministry of Justice liked Lord Shangshu very much. This matter was just a matter of interest and did not mean disrespect to Lord Shangshu. Even Tao Zhoufeng himself knew it, and was still happy. It was just that he was not good at speaking to outsiders.

Wang Yan waved his hand: "Forget it, the important thing is. No matter who carved the words on the coffin, it is probably mysterious. After the carving, it is painted with a layer of wax, which is even more addictive. Just like the arrangement in this pit, it is just a place that leads people to think about it, or even thinks that someone digs it up and finds there is no corpse in the coffin, so he can use some excuses such as corpse removal and ascension to the immortals. I don't care much about these details yet. It seems that the female corpse that Lao Feng had lie in this coffin before. This case is becoming more and more interesting. I don't know where the original corpse in the coffin went."

Xie Fu was stunned. The detective from the Ministry of Justice quickly asked him the question: "I am so stupid, what do you mean is that there are other corpses in this coffin?"

Wang Yan turned around and looked at the sarcophagus: "Of course, there are. You and others have also handled many cases in the Ministry of Justice. Can't you tell that this is a stone coffin?"

Xie Fu, the people and guards of the Ministry of Justice, were stunned for a moment. Yes, there was a coffin outside the coffin, which was common. The people from the Ministry of Justice quickly said what Xie Fu thought: "I wish you forgive me. I will tell you, that's why I'm not hiding it. This case is really strange, and the younger ones have ignored it. Since this is a stone coffin, it means there was a coffin inside before?"

Wang Yan said: "Yes."

Another guard said, "Is the coffin dug out from the tree just now the coffin in this stone coffin?"

Before Wang Yan could answer, Zhang Ping, who was standing by silently, shook his head.

Wang Yanhuan raised his arms and looked at him: "Look at you shook your head, then let's talk about it?"

Zhang Ping said: "No."

Wang Yan said: "Why not?"

Zhang Ping said: "It's not right if you don't have a supporting staff."

He had just calculated around the sarcophagus that the coffin under the tree was placed in the stone coffin, and there was a lot of space around it, which was completely inconsistent. Moreover, the wooden coffin was roughly crafted, as if it was a hurry to beat it, and it was definitely not from the same craftsman as this gorgeous stone coffin.

"Originally, it should be..."

Wang Yan raised his hand: "Yes, your eyesight is still good." He glanced at everyone around him, "You have learned more from him, it is not difficult to blame the case, but you just need to look at all aspects carefully."

Everyone in the Ministry of Justice bowed their heads and thanked the Minister for his teachings. Zhang Ping shut his mouth silently.

Wang Yan said again: "It should be a good idea, so let's go up with the headquarters first." He took the lead in climbing the rope ladder.

Zhang Ping Xie Fu and the others followed and left the hole. Xie Fu felt his legs swaying. Alas, the heart that should have died of silence was disturbed by the bizarre world again.

Is it complicated?

Is it confused?

In the end, it’s probably empty and silent, so why bother with it?

He silently let his heart return to nothingness. Wang Yan ordered the servants who had just left outside the cave to go down a few more, cover them with sarcophagus and other objects, smash the ground and walls in the cave to see if there were any secret passages. He said, "Where are the people who have just followed the headquarters to the pit, go out first."

Zhang Ping and Xie Fu followed Wang Yan out of the hall again.

The sky was already dark, the night sky was clear, the breeze was refreshing, the stars were shining, Xie Fu breathed deeply, and felt that his soul was about to float away from his body and swim in the mountain wind.

He closed his eyes.

Should there be no worries, but what are the constraints?

His arm tightened, interrupting Xie Fu's thoughts, but Zhang Ping held him without saying a word. Wang Yan turned to look at him: "Is the foot floating? Actually, the headquarters is a little hungry, so we will go to your prefect first and let him treat you."

Zhang Ping didn't say anything, Xie Fu sighed softly in his heart, bowed and took off Zhang Ping to support him: "Mr. Xie is caring for you. This is because the reception of the subordinates is not good, so let's make arrangements."

Fortunately, at this time, a guard brought a lantern to report that the abbot wanted to serve Suzhai. Could you please ask the Taoist Guanzhong to prepare?

Wang Yan's follower said, "Our ministers don't want to bother you, and we will also offer sacrifices to the Queen Mother tomorrow."

Xie Fu didn't expect Zhang Ping anymore, and hurriedly bowed and said, "There are rice, grain, vegetables and vegetables specially prepared for pilgrims in Cishou Temple. The minister will arrange for people to borrow it from the kitchen. It will not disturb the Taoist priests' practice, nor will it be defiled. I just prepared it in a hurry, and I hope the minister will not blame it."

Wang Yan's entourage smiled and said, "When we, the minister, went out to handle the case, we were all with food and accommodation."

Xie Fu expressed his admiration for Mr. Wang and immediately went to do it. One of Wang Yan's followers said, "Let's go with the younger one."

Wang Yan instructed the guards to guard Cishou Temple well and not let anyone disturb the quiet place, especially the main hall behind. Zhang Ping was silent and left the temple with Wang Yan, but saw the lights brightly outside the view. Feng Tai sat on a stool with a foldable small case in front of him, reading the document, and the county yamen runners and the Jingzhao Mansion guards served on their side.

When Wang Yanxing approached, Feng Tai closed the document and stood up: "How is Mr. Wang proof?"

Wang Yan looked at Feng Tai's Chinese book and smiled and said, "The body has been tested? I still can't compare to Jingnong." The follower gave Feng Tai the evidence obtained in the stone coffin in the pit to Feng Tai. The follower next to Feng Tai took it and Feng Tai said lightly: "It's getting late, I'll check it out tomorrow." Nodded a little, the guards of Jingzhao Mansion presented a booklet to Wang Yan.

Wang Yan took it and opened it. Zhang Ping looked behind Wang Yan's side. The paper was painted with two figures, with arms, legs, wrists, ankles and back all circled red.

Wang Yan said: "This girl was sentenced before her death?"

Feng Tai said: "If you have any injuries, you can't tell why. What did Lord Wang find out?"

Wang Yan still did not answer, turned around and looked at Cishou's direction, then turned to Feng Tai: "Jingnong, don't be anxious. How could I hide the investigation of the case? I will definitely inform you later."

Feng Tai said calmly: "It was Mr. Wang who thought too much. Since our mansion agreed to Mr. Wang to participate in this case, how could he doubt it?"

Wang Yan smiled and said, "It's good that you can trust me even if you respect the farmers." Two lanterns came from Cishou Temple from afar, but Xie Fu and Wang Yan's entourage arranged the cooking and rushed over.

The two of them greeted Feng Tai and Wang Yan. After they were calm, Wang Yan looked around: "The people who have just gone down with the headquarters are all here."

Xie Fu and several others saluted, and Zhang Ping also bowed.

Wang Yan looked at Feng Tai again: "I came out this time and didn't bring a few people. I think Lao Feng has brought a lot of people."

Feng Taidao: "What did Mr. Wang say this?"

Wang Yan said: "Not bad, I want to borrow it from you." He turned around and said, "Come here, except for the one named Zhang, you will be arrested first!"

Xie Fu seemed to have his soul leave his body instantly, and was stunned.

Zhang Ping took a step forward: "My Lord, the words on the lid of the coffin have nothing to do with them, they are not new carvings."

Wang Yan narrowed his eyes: "How can you always like to stand out at such a time?"

Xie Fu then woke up and was just at the bottom of the pit. Wang Yan seemed to have no mind about those lines of poetry, but in fact he had long suspected that someone had made a fool. He and the people who had touched the sarcophagus were all in his doubts.

Zhang Ping said: "It's too late."

Wang Yan said: "The so-called trick to fool things is for seemingly impossible things. There are medicines in this world that can be fossilized. Just a single iron seal, engraved with words and painted them, printed out the words, and sealed with wax oil. If your hand is fast enough, it will be enough in an instant."

Zhang Ping said: "But the reason is not right."

Wang Yan's pupils shrank: "Oh?"

Zhang Ping looked up at him: "If there is really a criminal among these people who wants to be mysterious, he must have led the words to the female corpse of the Gujing."

Wang Yan said: "Isn't it? The words and phrases of those sentences overlap with the sentences of sitting on a mountain and watching the long water."

Zhang Ping said: "It seems to be aligned, but what we say is not the same thing. The sentence of sitting on the mountain and watching the long water is a false sentence of a female corpse showing its spirit. Taoist methods of practicing men and women are different, and the sentences such as the golden elixir and mud hole are the keys for male cultivation. The master interrupted the lower official in the pit before, and he must have seen that the original in the sarcophagus..."

Wang Yan said: "Forget it, you can talk with the headquarters."

Zhang Ping kept silently, and Wang Yan looked at Feng Tai: "Jing Nong, can you please move your steps temporarily?"

Feng Tai frowned and looked at Zhang Ping, but said nothing.

Wang Yan took the lead in strode to the open space. The three of them arrived at a bare open space with only grass and no trees. Wang Yan waved his hand to instruct everyone to retreat several feet away.

Feng Tai spoke slowly: "What exactly is in the sarcophagus dug out by Mr. Wang?"

Wang Yan simply said: "There is nothing, it's empty. Some red powder is probably what fell when the body you tested was lying in the sarcophagus. I just inferred out of thin air. Lord Feng can verify it. But the sarcophagus is a coffin, and there should be a coffin inside."

Feng Tai said: "Oh, then on the coffin cover, how many more words will be left?"

Wang Yan nodded: "It's not bad. And the one who slept in that coffin should have been a man."

Feng Tai couldn't help frowning, and Wang Yan raised his hand: "Old Feng, wait. This is not a conjecture out of thin air. Your subordinate county magistrate Zhang must have evidence." After that, he looked at the outline of Zhang Ping under the starlight with interest, "Since you don't let the headquarters arrest people, don't hide your knowledge and tell the story of the ancient tomb."
