Chapter 9: Examining the body to reveal the cause of death
Under the leadership of 6 Jiuyou, the three of them came to the mourning hall in the backyard. When Master Jiu saw the black and white photo in the middle of the mourning hall, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
The two young men next to them kept silent, bowed their heads together, and silently mourned in their hearts, wishing the old man well.
"As aged, one cannot help but be passionate. Why are you old comrades-in-arms who have been for many years? It is fake to say that it is not uncomfortable. I hope you can understand." Jiu Ye wiped away his tears with his hands, looked at his old friend in the black and white photos, recalling the scenes before, and unconsciously shed tears again.
After gradually stabilizing his emotions, Jiu Ye walked to the coffin placed on the treasure stool, took a deep breath, inserted his fingers into the gap between the coffin and the coffin board, and shouted: "Get up!"
With a "bang", the coffin board separated from the coffin and fell to the ground, making a loud noise. Fortunately, 6 Jiuyou's family was not there, otherwise it would be another trouble.
After the coffin board was lifted, a man was seen lying quietly in the coffin, wearing a blue shroud and a white cloth covering his face.
Master Jiu looked around, picked up a wooden stick from one side and picked up a white cloth and threw it aside.
Zhang Mingyu came over from behind and saw Master Jiu picking up white cloth with a wooden stick and curious: "Master Jiu, can't you just hold it with your hands? It's just a piece of white cloth anyway."
"So I said you still have some learning. In the past, when people die, they should put a white cloth on their faces when they stop their spirits to prevent people from getting angry, that is, the yang energy comes into contact with them, and reduce the chance of zombie fraud." Jiu Ye said, taking out clothes and gloves from where to put them on, putting on a mask, burying his body in the coffin, and starting to check the body of the 6th Old Master.
Zhang Mingyu shrugged at 6 Jiuyou: "It seems that we are not doing anything, let's stand and wait for the result."
"Don't stand. There is a small bag in my left pocket of clothes, which contains gadgets. Open it and hand me whatever I want. Go quickly, Mingyu, don't stand stupidly." Master Jiu seemed to hear Zhang Mingyu's words, and stretched out his hand, as if he wanted something.
"Ah, oh, okay, what do you want, Master Jiu?" Zhang Mingyu nodded, took out a small bag tied with hemp rope from Master Jiu's left pocket, and opened the small bag. There were various small tools inside, like made of stainless steel.
"I want that knife, the biggest one. Seeing that there is no obvious external injury outside, I want to open my chest. Xiaojiu, do you agree? If you have no objection, I will open it." Master Jiu straightened up, wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, looked at 6 Jiuyou, and asked for his opinion. After all, he was the grandson of Mr. 6.
6 Jiuyou looked at his grandfather lying in the coffin, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, please open it. Actually, I also want to know the real cause of my grandfather's death, but my family kept clamoring to be buried as soon as possible, so I didn't mention it."
"Okay." Master Jiu took the knife handed over by Zhang Mingyu, nodded, then buried his body in the coffin, and began to open his chest.
When he saw that Jiu Ye was an old hand, he untied the shroud of Mr. 6, and quickly opened the chest for Mr. 6 with a knife. After opening his chest, Jiu Ye put the knife on Zhang Mingyu's hand, and then took two pliers from Zhang Mingyu. The two pliers clamped the skin, and flipped it, revealing the tissue and bones inside.
After turning on the skin, Master Jiu took a tweezer and carefully reached into the 6th old man's body through the gap. After a few seconds, the tweezers stopped going downwards. Then Master Jiu began to move slightly. After a while, Master Jiu used tweezers to pick up a bit of dark purple internal organ fragment from the inside. Master Jiu frowned when he saw the fragment, and it was indeed roughly the same as he thought.
"Master Jiu, what did you see?" Zhang Mingyu frowned when he saw Master Jiu staring at a piece of things that said "Hei is not black" and said "Red and not red". He leaned closer to see it clearly, but Master Jiu moved his tweezers to the side and prevented Zhang Mingyu from looking at it.
"Master Jiu, please let me see what this is. What if I can tell something useful?" The more Jiu Master didn't want him to see, the more curious he became. Zhang Mingyu leaned forward again, not paying attention to the bag in his hand. When his hand slid, the bag fell into the coffin, and several small tools fell under the body of the 6th Old Master.
"Uh, my fault." Zhang Mingyu scratched her head embarrassedly, leaned down and picked up the small bag, turned around and placed it on 6 Jiuyou's hand, and then leaned over again to find the falling gadgets.
Master Jiu shook his head, thinking that the young people nowadays were too impetuous. Just as he was about to say a few words, Jiu Master suddenly remembered something, and sweat suddenly fell from his forehead. After putting the tweezers and the pieces on it on the small sealed bag he carried with him, Master Jiu pulled Zhang Mingyu up: "If you want to pick up something, just find a mask and put it on. Don't contact the corpse directly, otherwise, you will really be a zombie."
As soon as Master Jiu finished speaking, he felt something was happening in the coffin. The two looked down and saw that Old Master 6, who had been dead for a long time, opened his eyes again, but his eyes were white and his black pupils disappeared. If you look closely, you will see that Mr. 6's body had short white hairs, which is a sign of corpse transformation. The two looked at each other and thought it was hard.
Master Jiu let go of Zhang Mingyu, took out a copper button seal from his pocket, and placed it on the forehead of the old man 6. The white hair on the body stopped growing, and his hand that was about to be raised was also put down. Master Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, took out a black thread from his pocket, found his head and pulled it open, and said to Zhang Mingyu: "Hurry up, help him up, I want to tie him up."
"Okay." Zhang Mingyu leaned over and picked up the body. Master Jiu took the thread and wrapped it around the body twice, tied a knot, cut the rope with a knife, and put the rest into a ball and put it in his pocket.
After doing this, I looked at the corpse again. Although the corpse had been transformed, I still couldn't move. Zhang Mingyu thought it was the black thread that worked. Later, when I asked Xinhao, I realized that what really worked was the copper button seal placed on the forehead of the corpse.
"Boy, we are lucky today. Before he completely transformed, otherwise we would be busy today. Go find a mask and put it on and look for it slowly. I believe that with this time, you will be careful when you contact the corpse again." Jiu Ye took off his mask, found a stool on the side and sat down. He watched Zhang Mingyu lying in the coffin looking for gadgets, and he didn't dare to leave. After all, he was not sure whether the copper button seal could still suppress the corpse.
After five or six minutes, Zhang Mingyu finally found all the things, put them all back into his bag, tied them with hemp rope, and returned them to Jiuye.
At this time, 6 Jiuyou, who had been a bystander, spoke: "So, you two have been struggling for a long time. Have you ever been struggling to understand the cause of my grandfather's death?"
Zhang Mingyu subconsciously looked at Master Jiu. Master Jiu thought for a while: "Your grandpa didn't die naturally. As far as I know, his internal organs have been shattered, and he waited until you came back in one breath. Now he knows the cause of death, but he doesn't know who the murderer is. It's really disturbing to solve one puzzle and the other one comes one after another."
"I think that the murderer came for those mountain and sea maps, otherwise my grandfather would not have focused on the mountain and sea maps before he died." 6 Jiuyou thought about his grandfather's last words carefully, and felt that perhaps the murderer could be led out after finding the mountain and sea map.
"Okay, then do you know which room your grandfather's house worships Sanqing?"
