Chapter 268

That Zhang Daguo didn't seem to expect me to ask this question, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he hesitated and said, "Why...why do you need gloves?"

I looked at Li Yang's body, but didn't speak.

Zhang Daguo immediately understood what I meant, and said, "Wait a minute, uncle will get it for you."

While speaking, he went straight out.

In less than a moment, Zhang Daguo came back with three pairs of white cloth gloves in his hands. He first handed me two pairs of gloves, then took the remaining pair of gloves and said, "Uncle, help me put them on." handle."

I hummed, took the gloves casually, and handed another pair to Meng Longfei.

"By the way, little brother, this Li Yang was fine last night, why did he disappear suddenly?" Zhang Daguo asked as he walked towards Li Yang's body.

Frankly speaking, I am also baffled by Li Yang's death. Before I came to this bullpen, I imagined how to ask Li Yang. How could I know that after coming here, I actually saw this scene. Can't figure it out.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Zhang Daguo asked again.

I was very bitter in my heart, shook my head and said: "I don't know, I hope that after checking this big bed, I can gain something!"

Zhang Daguo hummed thoughtfully, then ordered the villagers standing nearby to get a mat and place it at the gate of the cowshed, and spread a yellow cloth on the mat, while I, Meng Longfei, Zhang Daguo The three of them began to fiddle with Li Yang's body.

I don't know what happened to those black ants. When we were messing with the corpse, they were still shaking in Li Yang's abdomen, and they didn't crawl out of the abdomen. This made the three of us wonder again and again. It's so evil.

What's even more strange is that when the three of us were messing with the corpse, we felt a sense of powerlessness. The main reason was that the corpse was too heavy, like a boulder weighing hundreds of catties, we couldn't move it at all.

We all know that after a person dies, he will definitely gain some weight, but it will definitely not be so heavy that the three of us cannot lift it.

This made the three of us stare at the corpse for a while, Zhang Daguo frowned and said: "It's evil, I have carried corpses several times before, how can it be so heavy!"

Meng Longfei nodded and said, "Yes, after my grandfather's death, I have also touched his corpse, it's not that heavy!"

Listening to what they said, I didn't speak, and kept staring at Li Yang's body.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a long black mark on the side of Li Yang's corpse.

I walked over, opened Li Yang's clothes, and found this black mark on the left side of his waist, about two fingers thick, spreading from the left side of his thigh to the chest cavity.

Staring at the black mark, I looked at it carefully for a while, only to feel that the black mark was like a living thing. It moved a few times if there was nothing, and I reached out to touch it. The first feeling I got was that there seemed to be something on the bottom of the black mark. .

"Old Meng, get the knife and come here." I called out to Meng Longfei.

He was startled, and tremblingly said: "What are you doing with the knife...?"

I didn't hide anything, so I told him: "I want to cut this black mark and see what's inside."

"Ah!" He exclaimed, his lips trembling, and said, "This...not good, the dead are the big ones, and wanton destruction of the dead's body will result in retribution."

Zhang Daguo also tried to persuade him, saying, "That's right, little brother, in our village, the dead are the most important. Once a knife is used on a corpse, it won't sound good to the public."

I understand what they mean. There is indeed such a saying in rural areas that the dead are the greatest.

But to me, it feels like a bad habit.The reason is that because the family members and others are unwilling to use knives on the corpses, many of the deceased will not get justice at all after their unjust deaths. Take our village as an example.

When I was young, a middle-aged man died in our village. At first, his death seemed normal, but when the coffin was sealed, some white foam came out of the mouth of the deceased.

As soon as this incident happened, people in our village were divided into two factions, one group was young people who had studied a lot, they believed that the deceased was murdered by others and wanted to find a forensic doctor for an autopsy, and the other group was middle-aged and elderly people. Thinking that this happened to the deceased when the coffin was sealed, it must be due to poor funeral etiquette, so he invited many Taoist priests, read a lot of scriptures to the corpse, and finally sealed the coffin and buried it directly.

As for the opening of the corpse that the young people said, those middle-aged and elderly people didn't respond at all. Instead, they scolded the young people for forgetting the rules of their ancestors.

It was not until many years later that the deceased's wife was arrested for certain things that she confessed that she had drugged her man.

This kind of situation happened precisely because of the saying of the middle-aged and elderly people that the deceased was too old to be dissected, so the unjust death of the deceased appeared.

I have experienced such a thing back then, so I am quite disgusted with this sentence. Of course, my disgust does not mean that I do not respect the deceased, but that on the premise of ensuring that the deceased died normally, if the deceased really has any grievances, I absolutely I will put aside the four words that the dead are the greatest.

The reason is very simple. To me, the greatest respect for the deceased is to die innocently.

Immediately, I said this thought to them both.

Meng Longfei was fine, and he could barely accept it. After all, we were about the same age, and we knew that there were indeed some bad habits in the countryside, but Zhang Daguo disagreed with life and death, and some villagers in Dongmen Village were even more emotional, life and death. Don't let me use the knife, say that I used the knife on the dead, they will use the knife on me.

Regarding this, I was also very speechless, so I could only stare at the black mark, not daring to take any action.

In the end, I really had no other choice, so I lowered my voice and asked Meng Longfei to go to the town to find Xiaozhuo policeman.

When Meng Longfei heard this, he seemed to understand what I meant, and asked me softly, "Brother Chuanzi, if the police are called, this matter will probably become difficult."

I understand what he means, once the Xiaozhuo policeman comes, the police station in the town should take over the matter, and we can only watch from the sidelines.

However, I also had my own motives for calling Police Xiaozhuo here. That was what happened in Nanmen Village, and Police Xiaozhuo experienced it himself. He should be able to see that this incident has something to do with Nanmen Village.

At the moment, I firmly said: "It's okay, you can go to Xiao Zhuo policeman to come over, let him bring more people, and don't let the villagers make trouble."

"Okay!" He nodded and walked outside.

After Meng Longfei left, Zhang Daguo and I started reasoning with a group of villagers, basically telling them that Li Yang's death was so strange that he had to use a knife to find out, otherwise, big troubles would easily happen.
