"Sir, I checked this body two days ago, and there were no stab wounds at that time. I think it must have been in the past two days that the policemen made cuts on the body when they came to investigate the case." An old government official quickly said his Guess, in his opinion, this is how the stab wound came from.
"My guess is wrong, this knife wound was clearly inflicted by this Heavenly Master last night." Liu Yu said sharply, and after finishing speaking, he still took out five taels of silver and threw it over.
The old government officer was startled, but when he saw the silver at his feet, he smiled again and quickly bent over to pick it up. The other government officials who wanted to speak shut their mouths.
Wang Fugui was even more confused. Why did Liu Tianshi say it himself? Shouldn't it be a secret?
If he knew what happened last night and could tell him, he would have spoken long ago, hey! That’s a lot of money!
"Boss Wang, do you see anything else unusual?" Liu Yu walked up to Wang Fugui and said specifically.
Wang Fugui broke out in cold sweat and didn't know how to answer. Does Liu Tianshi want him to tell the truth, or does he not want to tell what happened at night? Thinking of the scene just now, Wang Fugui said tremblingly: "Sir, I carefully inspected the female corpse this morning. In addition to the stab wounds, the body and internal organs were also damaged."
Wang Fugui finally decided to tell the truth. After speaking, he kept his head down, very scared. Cold sweat broke out on the old face, and he didn't dare to wipe it off. The sweat dripped on the ground along his gray eyebrows.
"What Team Leader Wang said is right, you can take these." Liu Yu waited for Wang Fugui to finish speaking, and after counting, he took out fifty taels of silver and handed it over and said.
"Thank you, sir." Wang Fugui took the silver, wiped the cold sweat with his sleeve, and felt relieved. It seemed that he had guessed correctly. Liu Tianshi wanted to tell him.
"Everyone must want to know why I used a knife to make a cut on the corpse? And why did I destroy the deceased's internal organs?" Liu Yu glanced at the six government officials and said slowly.
There was silence again for a while. The government officials did not dare to make random guesses, so they all kept their heads down and remained silent.
"If the corpse has been left for a long time, it may transform into a corpse. I think everyone knows that." Seeing that no one was speaking, Liu Yu continued to speak.
"Then do you know why the corpse transformed?" Liu Yu then asked.
In fact, he didn't know the specific reason. Later, Liu Yu learned that there were several important conditions for corpse transformation.
First, the meridians of the corpse were intact and not damaged. Second, there are residual souls in the mud palace pills of dead corpses, and the living souls have not completely dissipated. The last point is that corpse transformation occurs only when the corpse is nourished by Yin Qi or stimulated by external objects. These three points are indispensable for a dead body to transform into a zombie.
"I don't know, sir, do you know why the corpse transformation happened?" Zhang Niu's interest was aroused and he asked softly.
"That's a good question. In fact, this Heavenly Master doesn't know either." Liu Yu glanced at Zhang Niu approvingly and said, thinking that this man is still very wise.
"So in order to figure out why corpses mutate, I decided to do a careful study. This will use the dead corpses in the Yi Zhuang. In the future, I will carefully study some unclaimed corpses, which may cause damage to the corpses. . When you find that the body is somewhat damaged, don’t be surprised, and don’t spread it around. This is why we have called everyone together today.”
Liu Yu said in one breath the excuse that he had thought about for several days. It is in the name of studying corpse transformation to cover up the phenomenon of corpse wasps devouring corpses and causing corpse damage.
"So that's it! Master Tianshi, just do your research. No one cares about these corpses, and they are all burned in the end. If only we could figure out why the corpses changed, we wouldn't have to worry about it all day long." Zhang Niu suddenly realized and said with a silly smile.
In fact, Wang Fugui and other government officials still had some questions in their minds, but they did not dare to speak.
"That's the truth. I hope you will support me in the future." Liu Yu glanced at Zhang Niu with satisfaction, thinking that he is getting better and better, I like it.
"However, before this Heavenly Master has found out why the dead body mutated, I don't want you to talk nonsense about the damage to the dead body, let alone the research on the dead body, otherwise..." Speaking of this, Liu Yu suddenly After a pause, a red sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.
The government officials in Yizhuang only felt their eyes flash with a flash of sword light. The cloth hat he wore on his head was split into two, and the upper half fell to the ground. Some of his hair was shaved off. The government officials felt a coldness on their heads and touched them with their hands. They were all frightened to death. They knelt in a row and said with trembling words, "I don't dare, I don't dare, my lord, please spare my life."
"If anyone dares to spread rumors, besides the six of you, if anyone else knows about it, then next time I won't just cut your hat off." Liu Yu lowered his voice and said deliberately to sound fierce.
"Sir, except for the six of us, I promise that no one else will know about this." Wang Fugui said quickly. He finally understood why Liu Tianshi did these things. It was clearly to shut up these people.
I thought that if I explained it clearly, I wouldn't have to worry anymore. As long as I don't talk nonsense, my life is saved.
Other government officials also swore that if they revealed this matter, they would be struck with five thunderbolts and no one would be dead.
"Since everyone is so supportive of this Heavenly Master, I won't treat you badly. You can take these banknotes and share them." Liu Yu saw that these people were very frightened. I guess they didn't dare to talk nonsense. But in order to be sure, he still took out three hundred taels of silver notes to stop these people's mouths and reassure them.
The Yizhuang government officials divided the banknotes, with another smile on their faces. They all sighed in their hearts, this half hour was really ups and downs, it was unbearable.
Whether he uses the dead bodies for research or for other purposes is none of his business. For his own life, and for the money in his hands. I still keep this matter in my heart, and don't dare to talk nonsense when I do things in the future.
"The reason why you are not allowed to spread the research on corpse transformation is because I am not sure about this matter. The research may not produce any results, and people will laugh at it if it spreads. Also, if it spreads randomly, it may cause damage to the city. The people here are in unnecessary panic, so I hope you can understand."
Seeing that the scene had calmed down, Liu Yu explained again, which made the excuse more credible.
"My lord is right, that's what it should be. You've thought it through. None of us will talk nonsense in the future, so don't worry." After Wang Fugui figured it out, he quickly followed Liu Yu's words.
"It's good that everyone knows about this. Let's start now!" Seeing other government officials nodding in response, Liu Yu pointed at the girl's body and motioned for them to start the cremation.
The officials first used flint to light the dry grass, and then used the dry grass to ignite the pyre. After a while, the pyre burst into flames, and the girl's body was surrounded by flames, which would soon be reduced to ashes.
