Chapter 106 Unknown Wood

Hearing this voice, I almost jumped up. Before I could put down the three pieces of Ghost Craftsman's Ji Wen, that Jin Shan came in. He glanced at me first, and then stared at the fourth son of the Xu family in surprise. took a look.

I asked him, "Who died."

He said: "The third child of the Xu family and the fifth child of the Xu family died, one was buried alive, with only one head exposed, and the other was...by...by some sharp weapon..."

I asked suspiciously, "What happened to the sharp weapon?"

He took a deep look at me, and said in a trembling voice, "Split...in two halves...by a sharp weapon."

When I heard it, I felt chills all over my body, and the third son of the Qin family had a tendency to vomit, but the fourth son of the Xu family just frowned and didn't speak.

Jin Jinshan said again: "Two wooden statues were found at the place where they died. Here, these are statues. By the way, according to your request, I made a special trip to the pond, just as you guessed." Generally speaking, statues were also found on Xu Shimin's body."

After speaking, he handed the three statues to me.

I took the statue and took a closer look. The wood used for these three statues is yellow rosewood and elm. As for the statue found on Xu Shimin, its material is quite rare. I stared at it for a long time For a long time, I was stunned to see what kind of wood it was carved from.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Jin Jinshan asked me, "Chuanzi, what's wrong?"

I didn't hide anything from him, so I told him, "I can't tell what kind of wood this third wood carving is."

He was taken aback, and immediately came over and said, "Chuanzi, you are a craftsman, you can't even distinguish the wood, can you?"

I frowned. When I was learning art with my senior, my senior told me all the woods available in the market, and I memorized them all, but I couldn’t see the reason for this third wood. .

In terms of color, this wood is black, and there are only three kinds of black wood, one is ebony (persimmon tree, different from gloomy wood), one is purple sandalwood, and the other is windmill wood, but without exception , the texture of these three kinds of wood is a bit rough, and the smoothness is not enough.

However, although the wood in my hand is black, the wood is hard and dense, and the texture is very beautiful. When I touch it with my hand, it is very slippery, as if I touched a layer of lubricant on it.

Staring at the wood, I looked at it for a while, but I still couldn't see why.

Jin Jinshan was a little anxious, and urged him from the side, "Chuanzi, did you see that?"

I shook my head, and asked Qin Laosan to find a kitchen knife and cut a hole in the wood carving. I spit on it, rubbed it vigorously with my hands, and found that the saliva could not wet the wood at all. It is enough to show that this wood is resistant to water and humidity.

This made me frown even more. Looking at the whole of China, due to the influence of the geographical environment, there are very few such woods. No, it can even be said that there is no such wood at all. No effect.

Wait, could it be....

I looked over at Huang Jinshan and said, "The origin of this wood may not be China."

"Ah!" Jin Jinshan exclaimed, "You mean this wood comes from abroad?"

I hummed and explained: "All areas in China belong to five climates, namely tropical monsoon climate, subtropical monsoon climate, temperate zone monsoon climate, temperate continental climate and plateau mountain climate. To breed this moisture-resistant, hard and fine wood, Only the Mediterranean climate, which is controlled by tropical high pressure and the air flow sinks, can easily cause soil variation, so that this kind of wood can be bred."

As soon as the words fell, Jin Jinshan stared at me in surprise, "Is there such a thing about wood?"

I nodded and said, "You are a layman, and you don't know the truth here. Affected by the climate and geographical environment, the wood in various places has its own special features. Therefore, I conclude that this wood is definitely not from China."

After saying this, I became even more puzzled in an instant. Just like what the fourth child of the Xu family said, if she is the real culprit in this matter, she should not be able to get this kind of wood in her capacity!
Immediately, I put away those statues, told Jin Shan the words of the fourth child of the Xu family, and finally expressed my doubts.

When Jin Jinshan heard this, he stared straight at the fourth child of the Xu family, "Are you the murderer?"

The fourth child of the Xu family smiled, stroked his hair, and said, "What? The real murderer is standing in front of you, and you dare not catch him?"

After saying this, Huang Jinshan's face darkened, without further ado, he immediately detained the fourth child of the Xu family, took out his mobile phone and made a call, and sent the fourth child of the Xu family directly to the town police station.

Considering that this is a rural area, and considering that there is no actual evidence, Jinshan did not escort him openly, but waited until midnight to send the fourth child of the Xu family away quietly.

After sending away the fourth son of the Xu family, Jin Jinshan said that he needed to interrogate overnight, so he left with the fourth son of the Xu family, leaving only the third son Qin and me.

What made me depressed was that even though Jin Jinshan had left, Wang Jiong somehow lived in the same house as us. I asked him why he didn't go to town.

That guy was quite arrogant, he ignored me at all, but he kept muttering a word, saying that he couldn't see such an obvious scapegoat, and Jin Shanshan's life was in vain.

I agree with his words very much, as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that the fourth child of the Xu family is absolutely impossible to be the murderer, I have also told Jin Shan.However, Jinshan said, no matter if she is or not, she should be interrogated at the police station first, even if it is not her, she also knows who the real culprit is.

It was based on this consideration that he sent the fourth child of the Xu family to the police station.

At Zishi that night, Qin Laosan and I stayed awake in bed, while Wang Jiong slept in a bed next to us. Outside the door was the sound of the Xu family's funeral.

To say that this Xu family is also very strange, if other people's family dies with five children, it must be extremely sad.But in Xu's house, I didn't feel any sad atmosphere.On the contrary, what I felt was all joy and joy, and even the mourning music played at ordinary funerals became the sound of disco here.

The Xu family's parents are even more strange, with smiles on their faces all the time, telling everyone that he has five good sons, all of whom are going to work for the gods, and when they become immortals, they will definitely be able to work for the gods too .

The relatives of the Xu family presumably considered that the parents of the Xu family were devout superstitionists, and all of them were smiling and congratulating the parents of the Xu family, but many villagers in the village went to persuade the parents of the Xu family. But the result was very tragic, and they were all scolded by Xu's parents, saying that these people were here to ruin his family's fortune.
