The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy
Chapter 72: Important clues found at the landslide
Qin Miaoxi came to the back village again without anyone noticing. This time she brought ropes and other tools. She fixed one side on the thick tree trunk and tied the other side around her waist.
After looking at the cliff in the distance, she walked towards the collapsed area without hesitation. Standing on the edge, she could see the rushing water below, carrying away layer upon layer of rocks and sand.
She moved carefully and came to the bottom of the stone tablet with twenty-one names engraved on it. She found that the soil there was of different colors. The outer layer was dry and light in color, while the inner layer was moist and deep red. That was definitely not the color of soil.
She pulled the rope and walked towards that location. Suddenly, the soft soil under her feet rolled down and her feet sank in an instant.
She hurriedly pulled the rope to stabilize her body, and looked down to see the rolling sand falling into the river below, making a splashing sound.
Qin Miaoxi held the rope tightly with lingering fear, her body leaning against the soil. She used her hands and feet to find a fulcrum and moved towards that position.
Finally moving there, she couldn't wait to grab a handful of dark red soil and smell it, and it actually had a fishy smell.
She dug up the soil with force. The color of blood and the smell became stronger and stronger. Suddenly, her hand stopped. In front of her was a leg bone stuck in the soil, so white that it was dazzling.
She silently dug out the leg bone, slowly put it in her arms and continued to dig deeper, gradually digging out one, then two, bones from all parts of the human body appeared here, and soon her arms were full.
At this moment, Lu Qingchen's anxious voice came from above, "Qin Miaoxi, where are you?"
The shouts echoed in my ears, as if someone was making trouble nearby.
She couldn't stand it any longer and shouted, "Stop shouting, you're calling your soul."
Then she heard a burst of hurried running sounds, and she hurriedly stopped them, saying, "Don't come over here. The soil here is soft and there's a risk of collapse."
However, the footsteps did not stop. Soon the mud above rolled down, and a black shadow was caught in the mud and rolled down to the river.
"careful!"
Qin Miaoxi hurriedly reached out to stop it, but the black shadow suddenly stopped hovering above her.
Lu Qingchen smiled at her with a dusty face and said, "Hehe, this marquis is not a fool."
As he spoke, he pointed at the hemp rope around his waist and smiled with great pride.
Qin Miaoxi had a splitting headache, and the thought of hitting someone suddenly popped up, "Can you be more steady? I was almost scared to death by you."
Lu Qingchen tried to continue making jokes to get over it, but when he looked down, he saw those red eyes and couldn't say a joke.
"I was wrong. I will not be impulsive next time."
Qin Miaoxi lowered her head and hummed, but there was a strong nasal tone in her voice, which made Lu Qingchen's heart skip a beat.
She's crying because she's worried about her safety? Oh my god! I'm such a jerk! How could I make a woman cry? How can I comfort her?
Lu Qingchen's mind was full of random thoughts, all of which were self-blame for making her cry.
Qin Miaoxi, who was below, was speechless when she heard these thoughts. This guy must be mentally ill! She just had sand in her eyes. When did she cry?
Cry for him, stop being sentimental, jump into the river and wash your brain!
"Stop hanging there, get up!"
The two of them climbed up step by step holding the rope and stopped only when they reached a safe place.
Lu Qingchen asked breathlessly, "Why did you go down there alone? Do you know it's very dangerous?"
Don't be fooled by his nonchalant appearance. When he heard Qin Miaoxi's voice coming from downstairs, his heart sank, fearing that something might happen to her.
However, just as he finished speaking, he looked up and saw the red circles under his eyes that had not yet faded, and his voice softened.
He took a deep breath and asked worriedly, "Are you okay? What's in your arms..."
His eyes suddenly widened in disbelief. "Gutou, why are you holding these things?"
Qin Miaoxi carefully placed the bones in her arms on the ground and glared at him unhappily, "Shut up, these are human bones."
"people……"
Lu Qingchen quickly covered his mouth. He found that his mouth was no longer under the control of his brain and wanted to fly alone.
He took a few deep breaths, looked around, and asked stealthily, "Whose ancestral grave are you digging? If they let you dig, there must be something good in there. Where is it? I'll help you dig it."
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, looking very stealthy.
Qin Miaoxi slapped him hard, "Shut up, what nonsense! If I'm not mistaken, this should be part of the skeletons that were washed into the moat."
Lu Qingchen covered his forehead with his hands in grievance, "How can you be sure that these are the skeletons from the moat?"
"The texture, color, and missing parts of the bones are all very similar to those of the skeletons. It can't be a coincidence!" Qin Miaoxi was 80% sure, and said with the remaining 20%: "But we have to take it back for comparison to further confirm whether it is part of those skeletons."
Lu Qingchen nodded in agreement seriously. "If it's confirmed, then it proves that these skeletons were indeed rushed out of Fengshui Village. We have solid evidence."
"That's right. Then the government can legitimately enter the village to investigate."
After the two men sorted out the bones, Qin Miaoxi asked, "Why are you here?"
Lu Qingchen quickly said, "I found out that the soil here is really related to the Earth God."
Qin Miaoxi burst out laughing, "Why? Did you go into the dream to ask the Earth God?"
Lu Qingchen coughed twice. "Seriously, there's something wrong with the soil here. I asked someone to take a look, and they said it must have been doused with vinegar or something. It has a sour smell that inhibits the growth of seeds. This might be why they can't grow crops."
"But there is no such smell in the soil where crops are grown. Instead, you can find some insect-like corpses in the soil." After he said that, he took out a paper bag containing some dark brown balls.
"This is……?"
"Dead bugs found in the dirt."
Qin Miaoxi picked one up with her fingers and examined it. The outer layer was hard and smooth, without eyes or legs, and it didn't look like a bug at all. But if she squeezed it hard, some mucus would flow out from inside.
"Can you tell what kind of bug this is?"
Qin Miaoxi shook her head and said, "I can't tell for now. It looks like a beetle, but it also looks like something else."
Lu Qingchen was not discouraged. "Then I'll go back and ask other people. I'm sure someone has seen this thing."
Qin Miaoxi agreed. She handed the bones to him and said, "You go back first. I have somewhere else to go."
Now I have visited the landslide site, and only the place full of legends remains.
"No, you can't do it alone, I'll go with you."
Qin Miaoxi did not refuse. The two of them traveled together and could take care of each other if anything happened.
Seeing her walking towards the other side, Lu Qingchen followed closely behind her, vigilantly observing the situation around her.
The two of them arrived at their destination, the land temple.
