Chapter 27
Huzili just walked into the yard when he heard Chi Mu's cry, he was a little surprised, not as excited as Chi Mu.
After standing still and thinking for two seconds, he said to Chi Mu who walked out of the yard: "Go and see Liu Piaoxue's tomb."
Chi Mu nodded.
Liu Piaoxue's tomb is not far away, far away, before reaching the destination, Chi Mu sharply saw Liu Le kneeling in front of Liu Piaoxue's tombstone.
In the darkness, a beam of bright moonlight shone on him, illuminating the mottled bloodstains extraordinarily bright and strange.
He knelt there with his head down, his hands were cut off from the wrist by rough tools, and there were still a lot of torn flesh and bones hanging on them, even his feet were not spared, they were treated in the same way.
The shaved feet were stuffed into the embroidered shoes, and they were placed squarely beside him. A pair of severed arms were placed aside in a cross shape, with a blood-red eyeball in each palm.
This cruel scene made the two police officers gasp.
Chi Mu and Hu Zili had seen a lot, but they didn't feel much.
Feeling the sweltering summer breeze, Chi Mu wiped his face and handed the two shovels that were in Liu Le's yard to the police officer: "Come, help dig a grave."
"Whose grave is this? Why do you want to dig it?"
One of the police officers patted the questioner on the back of the head: "What are you talking about, it must be for evidence collection, hurry up and go back."
The police officer made two oohs and raised his hands.
"Stand aside, be careful of the mud splashing on you." Chi Mu stopped Hu Zili from retreating.
Hu Zili, who had nothing to do, glanced at Liu Le and sighed: "I'll get some branches, and I can cremate him later."
Obviously Chi Mu forgot about it, he said, "I'm with you."
"I'll go by myself." Hu Zili didn't give Chi Mu time to refuse, turned around and walked deep into the woods.
After watching his back for a few seconds, Chi Mu came to his senses amid the sound of shoveling dirt.
He squatted next to Liu Le, didn't look at him, but stared at the words Liu Piaoxue on the tombstone and murmured: "I don't know what kind of grievances you have, but it can make her become like this. Maybe you really did something more insane than burying her alive."
The gouged out eyes and the blue embroidered shoes, the way of death of these people are all inextricably linked with Liu Piaoxue.
Puff puff.
The soil was shoveled away one after another, and as the beaver came back dragging several thick trees, a policeman suddenly let out a groan.
At the same time, an indescribable rotten smell rushed straight into everyone's nostrils, carrying a choking stimulus, rushing all the way to the mind, which lifted people's spirits.
When Chi Mu saw Liu Piaoxue in the mud clearly by the light of the flashlight, he held his breath in his chest and almost couldn't get up.
He frowned to block Hu Zili who was about to step forward to check: "Don't look at it."
Hu Zili glanced at Chi Mu, took his hand away, endured the discomfort in his stomach, and went to see the situation in the grave.
Originally, he thought that the villagers who buried Liu Piaoxue alive would be nailed to death in the coffin just like her family members were buried alive, but he still underestimated the madness of this group of people.
The soil was mixed with fabrics that had rotted to the point where the color of the clothes could hardly be seen clearly. Liu Piaoxue's body was left with cold bones, covered with dense maggots, crawling on her body.
Her body tissue was mixed in the soil, and she was buried in the soil in a strange posture. The hemp ropes on her hands had already rotted away, making her hands behind her back in a strange posture.
An indescribable stench lingered in this space, the four of them stood silently, still moving, all covered by the group of fat and white maggots covering Liu Piaoxue's body.
……
An hour later, the flames rushed to the sky in the field ten meters away from the grave, and the two police officers went to Song Qingzhou to report the situation here. In the empty field, only Chi Mu and Hu Zili stayed there.
"When Captain Song was here before, your cousin said, 'my cousins are the objects of Liu Piaoxue's wish, and they cannot be missed'. Your cousin and cousin know that Liu Piaoxue exists, why does Captain Song know?" In the sound, Hu Zili suddenly spoke.
It was such a simple question that even Hu Zili didn't even look at him, but Chi Mu was still taken aback, almost thinking that Hu Zili had discovered his true identity.
However, he immediately calmed down in an instant: "They are both policemen, and they are also the bosses of the twins. Maybe there is nothing wrong with knowing about it?"
Hu Zili looked at him suspiciously, and Chi Mu raised his eyebrows slightly: "That's why they said they slipped the tongue, and it must have been found out."
"..." Hu Zili listened to this lie full of loopholes, and was really powerless to complain, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you know."
"That's right, knowing that we've saved us a lot of trouble." Chi Mu snorted twice and climbed up the pole.
Hu Zili didn't bother to pay attention to him, the two of them were here watching the bodies of Liu Piaoxue and Liu Le being burned. In the flames, the feet inside the pair of blue embroidered shoes had already been scorched, but the shoes were still not damaged at all. Signs of burnout.
It is like an item in another space, unscathed.
Chi Mu leaned his head and sniffed Hu Zili's neck, but Hu Zili pushed it away: "What are you doing?!"
"Fuck you raccoon! You actually put the hand that touched the corpse and the mud just now against my face! What if there are bacteria! My face is priceless!" He jumped up, looking as if he was about to fight the Huzili.
Hu Zili looked at him like an idiot: "The mud of the corpse is already dry, it can't stick to your face."
"That won't work either!" Chi Mu said angrily, "Dirty!"
"In front of the dead, don't say these things, it's disrespectful."
Chi Mu snorted, pointed at Hu Zili and said angrily: "You are the one who should reflect on it the most, okay? The cleanliness is so serious, the dislike is clearly written on your face, don't pretend."
The fulfillment of the wish can be regarded as a temporary understanding, so it is normal for Chi Mu to return to the cockfighting appearance. He sneered and mocked: "Even if I have a cleanliness, I will personally move people out and burn them. If you don't agree, shut up."
The firelight imprinted on Hu Zili's fair face, coating him with a layer of warm color, and Chi Mu thought it was a bit cute in his eyes.
He coughed lightly, and was about to say something to ease the 'cockfight' atmosphere, when he saw the embroidered shoes in the fire disappeared in a blink of an eye.
twilight:"???"
Seeing that Chi Mu suddenly started to circle around the fire, Hu Zili grabbed his arm when he turned back: "What are you doing?"
"The embroidered shoes are gone." Chi Mu let out a hey, hesitantly said, "Would there be more dead people?"
It's hard for Hu Zili to answer this question.
They all knew what it meant when the embroidered shoes disappeared.
In the beginning, it was a medium between them and Liu Piaoxue, but after arriving in the village, it became a symbol of death.
Chi Mu looked at the flames soaring into the sky, and fell into deep thought: "We are already helping her fulfill her wish, can she still do it?" At this time, Xiao Qi should have arrested her, right?
"Look clearly, the corpse hasn't been burnt yet." Hu Zili pointed at the fire, "If you haven't burned it and put it together, then you won't be able to fulfill your wish. I haven't encountered this kind of thing in a few years, and you suddenly lost your mind. ?”
"Although you are mocking me now, I'm too lazy to be angry with you, I'm generous." Chi Mu rubbed his chin and said affirmatively, "I think the next person to die should be the village head, after all..."
Chi Mu didn't finish the following words, but Hu Zili also acquiesced to Chi Mu's guess.
The corpse was burned all night, and the fire gradually extinguished when the sky was bright, leaving behind a thick smoke that fluttered into the sky.
Xiao Qi came from a distance with a white porcelain pot in his arms, and Song Qingzhou followed him, holding a small clean shovel in his hand.
Hu Zili was leaning on the tree with his eyes closed to rest, and opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and by the way, woke up the peaceful Chi Mu who could fall asleep standing up and sleep with his head on his shoulder.
"You can't strike lightly? What if Lao Tzu's handsome face is broken?" Chi Mu said in a strange voice against his own face.
Hu Zili didn't use much effort at all: "You think you are the Princess and the Pea? Isn't it the domineering president?"
"The overlord's skin can't be delicate?" Chi Mu was very dissatisfied, "The skin on my face is so delicate, how many people rush to stick it just because of my face, you don't know how to cherish it."
Hu Zili: "...shut up!"
Taking the shovel from Song Qingzhou, Chi Mu swung the weight, twisted his neck and wrists to loosen his muscles and bones, and walked aside to start shoveling ashes.
Liu Piaoxue's request was to pack the ashes of the two of them together, but Chi Mu didn't have much scruples and just packed them together. While shoveling, he asked Song Qingzhou: "Captain Song, is the village chief dead?"
"No." Song Qingzhou replied, "I was about to be taken to the criminal investigation team, and there was no problem on the way."
Chi Mu's action of shoveling ashes paused: "Is he really not dead?"
"No." Song Qingzhou said, seeing Chi Mu's expression was a bit strange, paused, and asked again, "Did something happen?"
Chi Mu's unnaturalness lasted only a moment, he lowered his head and continued to shovel: "It's nothing wrong, I'm just afraid that something really happened."
The words were so strange that Song Qingzhou didn't understand, and when he wanted to ask again, he heard Hu Zili asking himself: "Captain Song, when Liang Yushu was injured yesterday, was there a child beside him?"
"Child? Who is it?" Song Qingzhou asked two soulful questions.
Hu Zili stood up straight, a little surprised: "No children? Just a child who looks seven or eight years old and so tall. He is the grandson of the village chief." He also compared his height.
Song Qingzhou shook his head: "We really didn't see it. We searched all over the village. Except for a group of women, there was only one seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy lying unconscious on the bed, but he seemed to..."
"There is no genitals, right?" Chi Mu is not as reserved as Song Qingzhou. He grinned, and even showed a mouthful of white teeth in a smile, "The genitals were bitten off alive by the rats raised by the village chief, but I think it's better to bite them off." That’s fine, so as not to harm others in the future.”
In Song Qingzhou's stunned expression, Hu Zili rubbed his brows and said, "That's how he is, don't worry about it."
Song Qingzhou hummed: "We didn't see the child, but we found a newly dug cemetery in the field not far from the village chief's house. We also found three corpses placed in coffins in the room, and the time of death was preliminarily estimated to be more than 15 years."
