I work part-time in the dungeon and raise an umbrella

Chapter 9 A Severed Hand

A severed hand was displayed on the booth. It should have been severed with a sharp weapon. The cut was clean and smooth, leaving a small puddle of blood on the booth, as if it had been cut off not long ago.

Shi Ying raised his hand and compared it vainly. This right hand looked like a man's hand, with slender fingers, protruding knuckles, pale complexion, thin calluses on the fingers, and several old scars on the hand. Although there is a gold ring inlaid with white jade on his middle finger, Shi Ying speculates that this man is not a pampered man, at least not always in a state of pampering, and may have had a life that required self-reliance.

A label on the stand simply read: Severed Hand.

Haunting the booth from time to time, I looked up and down the square inch booth three times, but did not get any more information. I don't know why the exhibition hall let her in. It couldn't be to scare her with a broken hand, although she was indeed Scared, but not much, if it's just like this, the rank of the exhibition hall is a bit low.

Shi Ying looked at the faint exhibits in front of him, hesitated for a while, and then walked forward.She had to obtain more information before she could know what the mastermind was planning.

The next exhibit was much more normal.

Ebony hairpin, described on the label.

There is nothing special about the hairpin, and there are no engravings or patterns on the body of the hairpin. There are traces of use, but it is not serious, and there are no scars or abrasions. The fresh severed hand is different, it looks like it was taken from a dressing box.

A mediocre hairpin, Shi Ying thought, looks like it only costs 9.9 and includes free shipping.

Shi Ying guessed that the hairpin might belong to the same person as the hand just now, but there was still too little information, and she couldn't make a definite judgment.

Further on.

The third exhibit is very large, hanging on the wall, overlooking Shi Ying from a high position. The height and area it occupies brings a sense of oppression. The black, white and red color scheme of the entire wall also shocks Shi Ying's vision.

This is a full set of filial piety clothes, with hemp rope and cloth shoes, neatly hung on the wall.Xiaofu's right hand is reddish brown after blood oxidation, and there are splashes of blood on his body. It is not difficult to see that there is a high probability that it is the clothes worn by the first severed hand when it became severed.

The style and material of the filial piety clothes can be seen to be very careful. They are high-quality goods, and they are definitely not the grades that ordinary people wear when they go to funerals.The size of the shoe verified Shi Ying's guess just now, the length of the shoe was at least 43 yards by visual inspection, and there was a high probability that it was not a woman.

So this is a long-haired man with a height of about 1.8 meters and good living conditions?
Modern men seldom use hairpins, is this a Taoist priest?
What is the reason for Taoist priests to cut off their wrists?
Shi Ying's thinking began to run in a supernatural direction, he could be resurrected from the dead, and the umbrella could consciously understand the words and move on its own.

Shi Ying walked forward with his mind full of imagination about Taoist priests subduing demons and eliminating demons.

In front of me is a larger and longer wall than before. Four sets of festive auspicious costumes are hung on the wall. Hanfu style, red and black colors, exquisite embroidery, various accessories, and two pairs.There are four words written on the label below: Happy wedding.

Shi Ying's gaze was attracted by the phoenix crown in the middle. From her point of view, such a gorgeous phoenix crown, if the material is genuine, can be sold at an auction for a price of more than [-] million.

The whole body of the phoenix crown is made of gold silk, decorated with six dragons and four phoenixes. Beads made of similar large pearl strings are decorated on it, which is radiant and beautiful.

Shi Ying has seen many beautiful and luxurious phoenix crowns in various museums, but those have gone through hundreds of thousands of years. The impact of people is not so strong.

This phoenix crown is fresh as if it has just been taken off the bride's head. Standing in front of it, there is a sense of shock and disdain.

Shi Ying speculates that the identity of the owner of this phoenix crown is somewhere between the imperial concubine and the concubine of the harem.The most iconic decoration is the decoration of six dragons and four phoenixes. If it is a queen, then it should be nine dragons and six phoenixes to be extremely noble. Six dragons and four phoenixes are only a little lower, but they are also absolutely superior.

The wedding gown that occupies a large wall next to the phoenix crown is also inlaid with gold and embellished with jade, and has an extraordinary bearing. There is also a circle of golden pearls the size of rice grains hanging on the hippa. The pearls are similar in size and round. The luxury is so staggering. It is really a detail. Prestige is everywhere.

On the other hand, the men's wedding dress on the left is made of excellent material and can be called top-grade, but it is only embroidered with gold thread and white jade on the black belt. The large pieces of patterns are the patterns that come with the high-quality fabrics. There is no embroidery, and the jewelry is also isolated. There is only a jade hairpin and a gold ring. The ring is the gold-encrusted white jade ring worn by the first severed hand.The overall look is extraordinary, but it doesn't match well with the Fengguan Xiapei next to it. It doesn't look like a couple, like the queen has hired a servant.

The pair of wedding dresses on the other side don't have such a big contrast, they look much more normal.The owner of the men's clothing should be a general, and there is a festively decorated saber next to the wedding clothing, which shows the identity of the owner. The owner of the women's clothing has no characteristics, maybe just an ordinary boudoir lady.

Although these two wedding dresses are not as exquisite and luxurious as the one next to them, they are also made of high-quality materials, with thousands of stitches and thousands of threads. It can be seen that the creators put great effort into it.

Shi Ying felt that if the first severed hand and the third mourning dress belonged to someone here, then it should be the owner of the most careless wedding dress.Being pampered and pampered is not always pampered, and the wedding dress is not treated with care. On the contrary, the woman's wedding dress is extremely gorgeous. Shi Ying feels that he may have guessed something. This is really like the ancient version of the Phoenix man, and the most famous ancient man Who is the most honorable phoenix man, without a doubt, the son-in-law.

This just confirmed Shi Ying's guess about the owner of the phoenix crown. It is very reasonable for a princess or princess to wear a phoenix crown with six dragons and four phoenixes when she gets married.

Now there are four characters, and the man who is suspected to be the son-in-law appears the most. It seems that it is not a drama of Taoist priests subjugating demons. Taoist priests subduing demons will never get married.

Shi Ying felt slightly regretful.

After repeatedly confirming that there were no missing details, Shi Ying walked to the next booth.

The name of this exhibit is: Choice.

The first thing Shi Ying saw was a ball of pure white cloth, which looked similar to a 50 hada in the scenic spot, stacked disorderly on one side of the booth.On the other side is a wooden tray with a long-necked porcelain jug on it, and a matching porcelain cup beside it, which is filled with an amber liquid, whether it is wine or tea.

This familiar set meal, the white cloth that looks like a khata is actually the legendary white silk, Shi Ying thought numbly, this is really bloody court, just found a princess son-in-law, and came to give the death set meal.

It seems that the person who was bestowed to death chose Bai Ling to hang herself. The state of Bai Ling was obviously used, and the poisoned wine in the cup was still dripping.

I just don't know who this person who was bestowed to death is, is it one of the four people who were happy to serve just now, or is it a new character.

Shi Ying carefully observed the used white silk, and found no traces of powder or hair leftovers, but he couldn't identify the gender if he found the hair. After all, the ancients, regardless of gender, might have long hair. hair.

I have to say that this exhibition hall is really ferocious. From the time I entered to the present, the only normal exhibits Shi Ying saw were wooden hairpins and the four sets of wedding dresses. Everything else either saw blood or was on the way to see blood.

For example, in front of him, a bloody dagger pierced vertically into a piece of letter paper.The blood stained the letter paper badly, and Shi Ying tried hard to distinguish the sporadic words on the edge of the letter paper that had not been polluted.

"Brother Changzhi, today I heard that the general left Beijing to go north, and you went with the army...Chang recalled Hengshan Academy, we were classmates...We have gone to mountains and rivers, and we will never see each other again...It's safe and sound...Brother Yu Qingyuan bows his head"

It seems that Chang Zhi's virtuous brother is Qingyuan's classmate, the general's younger brother, and he followed the newly married general to the north. The former classmate heard the news and sent a farewell speech, but for some reason, he was killed.

The bloody dagger was unattractive, and the handle was tightly wrapped with coarse cloth. It didn't look like an accessory from a powerful family, but rather a mass-produced standard weapon.I don't know if it's the sidearms equipped by the army or the killers sent by other organizations.

If the exhibits here are all related to the son-in-law, then the person signed by Qingyuan is likely to be the son-in-law.From the previous wedding dress, we can see that the general has someone else, and most of the sons-in-law are civil servants, and they rarely go to war with the army.

Very good, there is another person named Changzhi, and there is another person who killed him. The story is getting more and more complicated. Shi Ying looked at the word "farewell" on the label in front of him and thought.
