At this moment, Ye Qiu felt that his heart was in great pain, like a knife being twisted, and his tears couldn't stop flowing down.
Even he himself doesn't know why this is happening?
Is it because of the person in front of me called Ghost Servant?
I don't even know him, what does his death have to do with me?
But for some reason, Ye Qiu felt devastated, as if he had lost a very important relative.
After three full minutes, Ye Qiu's mood gradually calmed down. At this time, he remembered the last few words the ghost servant said.
"The thing is at the foot of the stone bed. What is it?"
"He also said he left it to me, but I don't even know him!"
Ye Qiu's mind was full of doubts. He walked to the stone bed and took a flashlight to take a photo.
Soon, he placed a brick at the foot of the stone bed.
The inside of this brick was hollowed out. If Ye Qiu hadn't opened his eyes, he might not have been able to notice it for a while.
Ye Qiu picked up the brick and saw something like a piece of cloth placed inside. He took it out and opened it, and found that it was actually a map.
Although the map is very old and stained with some blood, you can clearly see the mountains and rivers drawn on it.
There were two small seal characters in the lower left corner of the map. Ye Qiu took a while to identify them before he recognized them.
"Treasure!"
Ye Qiu was shocked.
Could it be that this is a treasure map?
He held the map in his hand, turned it over and looked at it, and found that there was a faint fragrance exuding from the map. This surprised Ye Qiu, and he lowered his head and took a sniff.
Suddenly, a faint fragrance rushed into my nostrils.
In an instant, Ye Qiu felt that all the fatigue was gone, and he felt relaxed and happy.
"This is... Shu brocade!"
Ye Qiu was shocked.
Shu brocade has a history of more than 2,000 years. The raw material is silk, which is extremely precious. Its production process is cumbersome and the production efficiency is low. Therefore, in ancient times, there was a saying that "every inch of brocade is gold."
In the past, Shu brocade was a luxury item only enjoyed by the royal family and dignitaries.
This treasure map was actually made of Sichuan brocade, which shows that it must have an extraordinary origin.
Ye Qiu looked at it carefully for a long time, but couldn't find any clues, and then put the treasure map away.
It was only then that he remembered that he had forgotten to ask the ghost servant an important question.
The poison of Datura is not contagious. In other words, the five households and twelve people in the residential building died from direct contact with the poison of Datura.
But how did they come into contact with the poison of Datura?
There is no doubt that the ghost servant is the source of the poison.
What Ye Qiu didn't want to understand was the way of transmission.
He took a flashlight and searched around, and finally saw a square pool in a corner.
At this time, the water in the pool was black and filled with a foul smell. Obviously, there was datura poison in the water.
Later, Ye Qiu saw another pipe in the pool.
This pipe penetrates the Buddha's head from the inside of the pool and extends to the outside.
Apart from this, there are no other valuable clues.
"Presumably, the poisoning of those people must be related to this pipeline."
Ye Qiu was about to leave to explore where the pipeline extended, but suddenly, he stopped again.
His eyes fell on the ghost servant.
"After being poisoned by Datura, you can still survive for more than 20 years. This kind of patience is absolutely extraordinary."
"Although you and I are strangers, I got a treasure map from you. I won't ask for this gift in vain."
"I will find the person who poisoned you and avenge you."
"rest in peace!"
Ye Qiu bowed three times and left here.
Because the ghost servant was highly poisonous, Ye Qiu could not take the ghost servant's body out for burial.
Return to the ground.
Gu Feng couldn't wait to ask: "Brother Ye Qiu, how are you? Have you found anything?"
Yang Qi also asked curiously: "Dr. Ye, what is inside the Buddha's head?"
"There is a person living inside." Ye Qiu said.
"Where are the people?"
Gu Feng and Yang Qi looked at each other, both surprised.
"No way, if he lives inside the Buddha's head, what will he eat and drink?" Yang Qi felt incredible.
Gu Feng also didn't believe it.
"There is indeed a person living inside, but when I entered, he was already dead. I found Datura poison from his body."
Ye Qiu didn't tell the truth.
Because he hasn't figured out what the ghost servant said, including the identity of the ghost servant.
"It seems that the deceased was poisoned by Datura, and then spread it to the residents in the residential building." Gu Feng frowned and said, "There is one more thing I can't figure out."
"You mean the transmission route, right?" Ye Qiu asked.
"Yes." Gu Feng nodded and said, "How did the five or twelve households in the residential building get poisoned?"
"There is a pool inside the Buddha's head. There is Datura poison in the pool. I also saw a pipe in the pool, and the pipe extended out. I think that pipe is most likely the route of transmission. Let's try again.
Let’s explore it carefully!”
Ye Qiu took Gu Feng and Yang Qi to search the scene.
After a while, they discovered the pipeline.
This pipeline extends from the inside of the Buddha's head to the vegetable field, and is more than a hundred meters long.
Because it was buried in the soil, they had not seen it before.
Ye Qiu conducted on-site testing again, and sure enough, there was datura poison in the vegetable field.
Not only that, datura poison is also present on vegetables.
When Ye Qiu checked the residential buildings earlier, he found vegetables in every house.
At this point, everything is solved.
The water in the pool inside the Buddha Head flowed through the pipes to the vegetable field, causing the vegetables to be contaminated with datura poison. Then people in the residential building ate the vegetables, which led to mass poisoning and death.
"I didn't expect things to turn out like this. Brother Ye Qiu, thank you so much. If it weren't for your help, I don't know when I would have been able to investigate clearly. Thank you." Gu Feng said gratefully.
"You're welcome." Ye Qiu warned: "This vegetable field and the Buddha's head must be cleaned to prevent the spread of toxins."
"good."
"It's getting late, I should go back." Ye Qiu said.
Gu Feng said: "I still have to clean up the mess, so I won't send you off. I'll treat you to dinner later. Xiao Yang, send brother Ye Qiu back."
"yes!"
On the way back to the hospital, Ye Qiu closed his eyes and leaned on the seat.
At this time, his mind kept thinking about what the ghost servant said.
"When I mentioned my mother's name, he seemed very excited. It seemed like he knew my mother."
"Also, who is that person named Ye Wushuang?"
"Why did he say not to go to Beijing, otherwise disaster would be imminent?"
"What secrets are there in the capital?"
Toot toot—
Suddenly, a harsh ringtone from his cell phone interrupted Ye Qiu's thoughts.
I took out my phone and saw it was Bai Bing calling.
Get connected immediately.
Before Ye Qiu could speak, Bai Bing's solemn voice came over: "Where are you? Something happened!"
