The Delicate Lady Coroner

Venerable Kassapa is a major disciple of the Buddha, and his golden statues are often on the side of Shakyamuni Buddha in the Daxiong Hall. Huo Weilou’s eyes sink slightly, and he stepped into the hall, “The bones are from the golden statue of the Venerable. Fell out?”

Luke nodded: “Yes, Lord Hou, the temple was preparing for the Dharma Conference that day. The statue of the Venerable fell from the frame when it was moved. The base broke and the craftsmen and monks were scared. I jumped, but I didn’t expect something to fall out of it. When everyone saw it, it turned out to be a human bone.”

After a pause, Luke said again: “It is reported that this statue of the Venerable was made ten years ago. In the past ten years, it has been placed in the front Daxiong Hall. The place has never been moved, and the monks have never Broken.”

Huo Weilou stared at it, that is to say, this skeleton was inside when the Buddha statue was sculpted ten years ago.

Famen Temple has a long history. The weather in the temple is austere, and the Buddha incense curls. As soon as you enter the temple, you can feel that the hundreds of years of Buddhist temples are not worthless, but they are in this Buddhist holy place. Inside the image, there is a skeleton hidden.

“Can the craftsman of the statue trace it back then?”

Luke shook his head, “Difficult, this Buddha statue was made when the relics were enshrined in the blessing ceremony ten years ago. The statue was finished at the end of the ceremony. At that time, the craftsmen who came here to shape the Buddha came from the northwestern Jizhou area, and they were considered veterans. The artist is here, and after his subordinates arrived, they have sent someone to Jizhou, but this time for at least half a month, it may not be possible to find the artisan of the year.”

Jizhou is far away, and it takes some time to find a craftsman, so naturally I can’t wait.

While talking, Huo Wei Building has entered the main hall, and the Buddha lights in the hall are bright, showing the dignity of the image of the Venerable Buddha.

This golden statue is seven feet high and stands on a lotus seat. It is cast in copper and gilded on the outside. Its shape is plump, with half-curved eyebrows, and a faint smile. The elegant and compassionate posture of holding a fist is reminiscent of Buddhism. For the well-rumored story of Venerable Kassapa “turning flowers and smiling”, Huo Weilou looked at the Buddha statue for a moment, and then saw the cracks on the lotus seat.

The hall was empty. In addition to the statue of the Venerable, there was a thin coffin. The bones found were placed inside the coffin. Seven long bright lights were lit outside the coffin, and simple sacrifices were placed.

Huo Weilou walked towards the coffin, and saw a piece of silk covered in it, and a human-shaped skeleton could be vaguely seen underneath. Huo Weilou had no shame, and he leaned forward and lifted the coffin open. Sure enough, it was deliberately placed. Human-shaped skeletons were exposed.

Lin Huai said: “After discovering the bones, the masters did two supernatural rituals. Because the things were too weird, I wanted to report them to the prefect of Luozhou for investigation. I can imagine that this Buddha statue was molded ten years ago. At that time, the ceremony was going on, and a disciple of Master Jingkong said that this skeleton was Master Jingkong, and only then did he hand over the paper to the court.”

Although Famen Temple is far away from Beijing, it is considered to be a royal Buddhist temple. It is related to the relic ceremony ten years ago. No one dared to take it lightly. Moreover, there was a suspicious case in Buddhism. The temple has a bad reputation.

Huo Weilou stared at him, “Are the three of you here together?”

Naturally, it was not Lin Huai and Lu Ke who asked about this, but the three of them.

At this time, the most burly person among the three came forward, “The second official came on the twelfth day of the first month, and the first official came.”

Father Fu and Bo Ruoyou stood at the door, and when seeing him, Father Fu whispered: “This is the general Yue Mingquan of the Xuande Army of the Zhenxi Army. Back then, he was the General Soldier of Luozhou. The martial law patrol on Qixia Mountain was entrusted to him. At that time, except for the courtyard where his Majesty lived, his people were also patrolling and setting up defenses in other places.”

Bo Ruoyou turned to look at Father Fu, “Father-in-law knows very clearly.”

Father Fu smiled slightly, “Because at that ceremony, our family came with His Majesty. At that time, His Royal Highness was also coming, but the road was too far away. Our family has served His Majesty before, and secondly, the Princess trusted us. At home, we asked our family to pray for her, mainly…for the sake of Lord Hou. Later, our family asked for a few lucky objects and brought them home.”

Bo Ruoyou didn’t expect Father Fu to have witnessed the relic ceremony of that year in person. In this way, there were more people who knew it. After all, ten years have passed, and one more person who has experienced it may give many more clues.

At this time, another thin and tall man came forward, “I went to the temple with Brother Wang on the thirteenth day of the first month of Xiaguan.”

Fu Gong said openly, “This tall and thin person is Wu Yu, the minister of ceremonies. Next to him is Wang Qingfu. Wu Yu was a minister of ceremonies ten years ago. Back then, he and the minister of ceremonies at that time arranged the ceremony one month in advance. The matter is considered to be a very good understanding of the many arrangements that year. Later, the relic was lost, and he was demoted once. After ten years, people still rose up. It was amazing. This Wang Qingfu was the Taichang Temple at that time. Shaoqing, now ranks among Taichang Temple Qing.”

At that time, the Luozhou General Soldier, the current General Xuande, the former member of the Ministry of Rites Wailang, the current minister of the Ministry of Rites, and the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple at that time are now Taichang Temple officials. These people are also among the four ranks at least, and they should be regarded as high-ranking. At this moment, Bo Ruoyou really understands what Huo Weilou said that this extraordinary unresolved case belongs to the list of national affairs.

“Where is Feng Lun? When did you arrive?” Huo Weilou asked again.

Wang Qingfu and Wu Yu looked at each other, and Wu Yu said: “Feng Lao is also on the thirteenth day of the first month, but it was only at night.”

When Feng Lun arrived at Famen Temple on the 13th day of the first month, he fell off the cliff and died on the 15th day of the first month. Now it is the 20th night of the first month, and Feng Lun has been dead for five days.

Fu Gonggong said: “Feng Lun was the prefect of Luozhou at that time, and Famen Temple was in Luozhou. He greeted the sage himself and was also an official. Later, he was appointed as the minister of the criminal ministry, he was a rounder than the minister of Lin. By all accounts, Shi Lang Lin is half a teacher.”

Shi Lang Lin is Lin Huai. When asked about Feng Lun, he really felt a little bit of sorrow on his face, “Hou Ye, Feng’s body is in the wing. The Ming family has not yet arrived. Why don’t you wait for tomorrow?”

Huo Weilou said, “Look first.”

Lin Huai never came in person back then, but he came to coordinate the case this time. The facts of the case have nothing to do with him. The other three are in a somewhat intriguing situation. Among them, Yue Ming is all generals, and Wang Qingfu and Wu Yu are both capital officials. It can be seen that The two of them are very familiar, occasionally meeting their eyes, whispering in private, and they also appear to be very familiar. In such a comparison, Yue Mingquan is a little alone.

Lin Huai led the way, turned left, and arrived at the wing where Feng Lun’s body was parked.

Luke said, “My subordinates arrived in Luozhou on the fifteenth night of the first lunar month. When I arrived, I heard that Master Feng had disappeared, and no one was found in the monastery where he lived. Later that night passed, and the next morning, I went to the back mountain to practice. The monk of Chen Gong found Master Feng, and his subordinates took a rough look. Master Feng seemed to have fallen off the cliff and died.”

Huo Weilou nodded and entered the door of the wing. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Feng Lun lying on a coffin bed. Feng Lun was over half a hundred years old. At this moment, his casual clothes were still the ones he had when he died. There were blood stains on his forehead and body. There is also a lot of dirt on the robe, which looks embarrassing, and he has been dead for five days, and the bright light in the room has given off a strong stench.

The three Yue Mingquan stood at the door and did not approach inside.

“Benhou remembers that you and Feng Lun are old acquaintances.” Huo Weilou looked at the corpse and said, “Yue Mingquan, when you served as the general soldier in Luozhou and Feng Lun served as the prefect, you can be regarded as working together. Later, he was promoted. In the capital, he was an official in the same court as Wang Qingfu and Wu Yu. His background is not comparable to yours. Otherwise, he might not be the only servant.”

Yue Mingquan heard the words and immediately said: “Hou Ye, the first time to be an official, and later a few adults arrived. We all drank tea and used fast food together. Those days were all in peace. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, at noon. At that time, I also laughed and said that we were celebrating the festival together and used the festive meal prepared in the temple. The meal was eaten until dusk, and then we all went back to the room. Master Feng somehow stumbled and fell into the back mountain. “

Wang Qingfu also said: “Yes, the next official returned to the house with Brother Wu. We live close to each other and can testify to each other.”

As soon as this statement came out, Yue Mingquan glanced at him. Wang Qingfu said that he and Wu Yu could testify to each other, which meant that he was only one-sided words. Yue Mingquan’s complexion sank right now, but in front of Huo Wei Building, Yue Mingquan squatted. The lips didn’t say much.

Huo Wei Building didn’t speak for a while, Lin Huai said in a rounded speech when he saw it, “Master Hou, the eldest son of the Ming family and the eldest son will only be there tomorrow night. When he arrives and inspects the corpse, he will know whether Master Feng was stumbled by himself. Going down, as for the skeleton, I’m afraid it will take some time.”

Speaking of the skeleton, Huo Weilou asked, “How did his disciples recognize that the skeleton was a master of clearance?”

Huo Weilou looked at the skeleton, but it was just a human bone. Even if he was tall and short, it was difficult to tell whether he was the master of clearance who had disappeared for ten years.

Lin Huai said, “Because that fell from the golden Buddha statue that day, in addition to the bones, there was a Buddhist bead. The disciple of Master Jingkong looked at it and said that the Buddhist bead was the one that Master Jingkong carried with him back then. One of the strings. There are a total of 108 sandalwood on that string, and each one is engraved with a Buddhist scripture.”

“Where is the buddha? Is there any other evidence?”

Lin Huai pointed to the main hall, “The material evidence is placed in the penthouse on the east side of the main hall. There is only one Buddhist bead. In addition to the Buddhist bead, there is also something similar to a robe, and some clothing, but it is now broken and rags, a disciple of Master Jingkong. I also recognized the robe, saying that it was the one that his master wore when he disappeared.”

Huo Weilou did not rush to look at the exhibit. He still fixed his gaze on Feng Lun’s corpse. Whether it was Master Jingkong or not, that skeleton was at least ten years old, but Feng Lun’s corpse was dead in front of him. Five days before, if you want to search for clues and evidence, it is naturally more helpful to start with Feng Lun’s death.

“You come in—”

Huo Weilou suddenly spoke.

Lin Huai was taken aback, not knowing who the Huo Wei Tower was calling, and Lu Ke, who was the nearest to the station, was also a little surprised, while the three Wang Qingfu stood at the door, looking at each other, not knowing which of them Huo Wei Building was calling.

“Thank you three adults to give way.”

A Qingling female voice suddenly sounded, and the three Wang Qingfu suddenly turned around and saw Bo Ruoyou standing in front of them.

Shicai was far away, and the three only felt that Bo Ruoyou was gentle and beautiful, and had been guessing her identity. Now Bo Ruoyou stood in front of him, and Wang Qingfu and the three realized that the little girl in front of them looked like painted eyebrows.

Wu Zhaohou was not close to the name of female sex. Wang Qingfu and Wu Yu, who were officials in Beijing, knew best. Yue Mingquan was a military general. He also had several connections with Huo Weilou and knew his name. All of them Unexpectedly, Huo Weilou went to Qingzhou to do the job and brought a little girl by his side.

Wu Zhaohou, who has been abstinent for many years, finally started to eat meat? !

The strange thing is that this is the place of the morgue, what did she do in the house?

Father Fu seemed to be able to guess what Wu Yu and the three were thinking, and said with a smile, “Three adults, let us go in, we are going in quietly.”

Quiet…Fu Gong is so intimacy known by the public name, besides that the woman is the new favorite of Wu Zhaohou, what is the explanation? !

Wu Yu pushed Wang Qingfu a bit, and Yue Mingquan hurriedly stepped aside. Bo Ruoyou entered the house. Lin Huai’s eyes moved slightly. Isn’t it the same as Wu Yu and the others?

Seeing Huo Weilou called Bo Ruoyou come in, he just thought, Wu Zhaohou finally had a woman by his side for many years, and he was exhausted after all the hard work. Now that the person is not dispersed, he called this woman by his side. Is it because he wanted to bring it with him? She went to rest but it’s not easy to mention?

A few teasers flashed through Lin Huai’s eyes, and his expression was righteous: “Young Master Ming is still in the future, and there is no autopsy at the moment. If Master Hou takes the girl to rest first, he will talk about it tomorrow?”

Huo Weilou had no expression on his face, but he could hear the thin words of quiet repose, his eyebrows moved slightly, and he turned his eyes to look at Lin Huai. The meaning of this look was unclear, but Lin Huai’s heart was stunned. He would be wrong. …

The next moment, Huo Weilou retracted his gaze and said, “You don’t have to wait for Gui Lan to come, there is a post-mortem here.”

Lin Huai was slightly taken aback, Lu Ke was a little strange. At this time, Huo Weilou glanced at Bo Ruoyou, “She is a work brought by Benhou. Before returning home, she can do an autopsy alone.”

Lin Huai took a deep breath. He had been a minister of the criminal ministry for three years, and naturally he had seen a lot of murders. As far as he knew, Huo Weilou couldn’t even look down on Jing Zhaoyin’s work. The son, how come there is a sudden addition of work beside him… or such a snow-skinned little girl.

Lin Huai’s eyes rolled, he looked at Huo Wei Tower, and then at Bo Ruoyou, suddenly showing a trace of sorrow.

What is unclear about this? What if it’s a woman, what if it’s an unknown job? Wu Zhaohou had a rare fancy to her in a century. Not to mention that she was asked to do an autopsy, but she was asked to investigate the case and interrogate people. What would they dare to say?

So Lin Huai reacted very quickly: “Yes… Will the autopsy be performed at this moment?”

Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou, Bo Ruoyou’s back stiff, and his expression calmly said: “Thank you Lord Hou to prepare the autopsy equipment.”

Huo Weilou glanced at Luke, and Luke went to prepare.

Bo Ruoyoushi had been standing far away. He had never seen the corpse. At this moment, he was standing in front of Feng Lun’s corpse. He looked at the corpse a priori.

He was born in the Lin family of Beijing, and he was naturally used to seeing how the children of the Beijing family showed their love for beauties, but it was the first time he saw him. Someone actually asked his sweetheart to come for an autopsy.

Looking at Feng Lun’s corpse with spots and a pungent smell, he found it unbearable. This little girl with icy muscles and bones got closer and closer. It looked like it was not like the first autopsy.

Thinking about Huo Weilou’s working style above tolerance, Lin Huai’s expression changed a little. Huo Weilou never slackens a bit above tolerance. Isn’t it true that this little girl is a fool? !

Lin Huai’s heart was in turmoil, and Luke, who was out looking for autopsy equipment, felt unspeakable for a while. Seeing Father Fu standing aside, Luke couldn’t help coming forward, “Father, that girl she—”

Father Fu smiled unpredictably, “It will really do an autopsy, it’s not a fake.”

Luke frowned, “Really? Subordinates thought…”

Father Fu raised his eyebrows, “Do you think that Lord Hou has finally opened up, knowing that you can leave beautiful ladies by your side?”

Lu Ke did have such an expression on his face, but Father Fu snorted: “Who is he, he is Wu Zhaohou, can he have that talent?!”

Even if Father Fu gave an explanation, when Luke entered the door again, his heart still remained uncomfortable. The fact that his father Hou was not tired of women and the young girl in front of him could really do an autopsy were things that made him stunned.

Putting down the cage with the autopsy equipment, Luke stepped aside respectfully. He wanted to take a good look at how this little girl would examine the corpse that had begun to decompose before her eyes.

Bo Ruoyou rolled up her sleeves and opened the cage. She first saw a pair of corpse guards sewn in deerskin inside the cage. The bottom of her eyes lit up slightly and she leaned forward and put the gloves on her hands. This is not common. The Embroidery ambassador will prepare most of it for the young man Ming. Shilang Lin mentioned that person several times, as everyone knows him well. The Huowei Tower often brings people around, but he can often be taken by the Huo Wei Tower. It must be a master of this road.

Lin Huai and Lu Ke looked at her slightly, Wang Qingfu and the other three did not move at the door. I thought that the little lady Wu Zhaohou took was mostly the person in the room who stayed beside her, but who would have thought that this woman , Is actually a post-mortem work? !

Mingmingsheng’s such a bewildering face, the whole body is also quite the gentle and elegant of a Jiangnan woman, but the dignified Wu Zhaohou used people for autopsy.

Or maybe, a post-mortem in the day, at night…

No wonder everyone thinks too much. It is true that Wu Zhaohou has never had a woman by his side, and now there is one more person, whoever thinks he has broken the precept.

After ordering a Su Hexiang, Bo Ruoyou began an autopsy.

At this moment, all the people present were officials. Huo Weilou looked at everyone around, but did not make anyone retreat. Of course, he saw that the faces of everyone were shocked and suspicious. Even so, he also let them see that Bo Ruoyou’s autopsy was not there. Imaginary.

At this time, everyone realized that this beautiful and clear little girl was a little different.

Feng Lun was found that day, only Luke briefly inspected his injuries, so now, he basically keeps his appearance at the time of death. The clothes soaked in blood are stuck to the corpse, and the corpse begins to decay. The appearance of the corpse is It was quite shocking, but when she touched Feng Lun’s clothes, Bo Ruoyouxiu frowned.

Feng Lun’s clothes were quite wrinkled. Although there was obvious blood color, one piece was thick and one piece was light. The light areas seemed to have been washed but never cleaned. She went to check the corpse’s shoes, hands and top of hair. Soon, it was thin and thin. Without raising his head, he asked, “Did it rain on the night that Master Feng fell to the back mountain?”

Luke’s eyes lit up, “It was down, and it was down a bit later in the evening, and it was an hour.”

The clothes were soaked with water, so there were a lot of wrinkles. The heels of the shoes were especially muddy, and the hair was also mixed with sand, all indicating that it had rained that night.

The corpse was found only after being exposed to rain, and the decay of the corpse was quicker. After Bo Ruoyou inspected the corpse’s head, face, etc., he began to pick up the clothes on the corpse. Lin Huai and Wu Yu couldn’t help but their eyelids twitched.

This is a male corpse, is it still going to be stripped?

As everyone watched, Bo Ruoyou took off all the clothes on the corpse calmly.

Lin Huai and Wu Yu: “…”

The surface of the corpse was covered with plaques, turning into a bluish color, and the deceased had died for a long time, and the plaques had grown and settled. It was difficult to distinguish the posture of the corpse at the time of death. The most serious traumas were one on the left of the deceased. One of the forehead was on the back of the deceased’s head. In addition, there were blood wounds on the left arm, left leg and waist. The bruises were large and the wounds were wide and rough, as if they were cut by sharp stones.

Bo Ruoyou first wanted to check for obvious injuries. When these points were checked carefully, her brows wrinkled again, and she suddenly looked at Luke, “You said it rained that night. An hour?”

Suddenly he was asked, and Bo Ruoyou at this moment was different from Wen Wan a moment ago. When a pair of eyes looked at him, Han Qinqin’s concentration and pressure, Luke’s expression tightened, and he thought for a moment before cautiously saying, “At most not More than an hour and a half.”

When Bo Ruoyou heard this, he nodded, looked away, and continued the autopsy. Others did not know why she asked, but Huo Weilou was sure she had found something. He didn’t ask, but just stood on the side, his eyes falling. On her.

When he saw Bo Ruoyou’s post-mortem for the first time that day, he didn’t look at Bo Ruoyou a few more times. Compared to her face, he liked seeing her accurately and professionally, but at this time, it was clear. The case was even more serious, and his eyes cast a few times on Bo Ruoyou’s face. If Bo Ruoyou is gentle and friendly, then Bo Ruoyou at this moment also showed a bit of a stranger not to come near.

And her delicate brows were twisted, and she won’t loosen them until the inspection is over.

After examining the trauma, Bo Ruoyou first shaved the deceased’s hair, and then wiped the deceased’s limbs, chest, abdomen and other places with white vinegar. While waiting, she began to choose a corpse knife in the wooden box. Suddenly, she thought of something and turned around. , “Master Hou, can the maiden undergo an autopsy?” After that, he pointed to the corpse again, “It’s mainly a craniotomy.”

Mainly craniotomy.

When Bo Ruoyou said this, his tone was ordinary, as if he was saying that the moonlight is good tonight.

And when I heard this, Lin Huai and others who were watching around had a numb scalp. For a while, I only felt that the delicate face of Bo Ruoyou was not beautiful, nor was it glamorous, nor was it beautiful and deceptive. , Not only that, watching her skillfully picking large and small corpse knives, their backs felt cold.

Huo Weilou nodded lightly, “Open.”
