Chapter 135 Bad habit of driving piles

When they opened the door to Amy's long-unoccupied room, their parents were immediately frightened and paralyzed to the ground by what they saw inside.I saw bright red blood splattered all over the walls of the living room, and the air was filled with a foul smell of blood, but I didn't see any corpses.

The frightened parents immediately called the police. After the local police arrived at the scene, they determined that it was a crime committed by an acquaintance after confirming that there were no signs of a fight in the house.But where did the body go?Where is Amy?

To this end, the police launched a detailed investigation into communities, nursing homes and other places where Amy had been active.

Finally, by investigating Amy's credit card consumption records, the police learned that on August 8, Amy had rented a storage room in a local warehouse. On September 30, this card paid for express delivery again, and the address was exactly that yard.

Therefore, the police speculated that Amy should have sent something to this storage room.

Therefore, the police followed them all the way. When they opened the door of the storage room, an unspeakable smell of corpses hit their faces. The experienced police officers immediately guessed that it was the smell of corpses.Sure enough, the police found a large cardboard box in the storage room, and the item column on the express delivery note read: Clay Doll.

When everyone opened the carton, a highly decomposed body wrapped in plastic sheet appeared.

After professional DNA comparison by the police, it was finally confirmed that the rotting female body was that of Amy who had disappeared for a long time.

But the weirdest thing about this matter is that the sender and recipient of the carton are both Amy. How did she manage to mail her body by herself?

With this question in mind, the police conducted a more detailed investigation on Amy and finally found a clue in one of her private social chat software.This private social software is mainly used for offline dating in the same city to meet the various secret needs of single men and women living alone.

About a month before Amy was killed, she posted a message on her personal page on this private social software: "I'm so scared to see him again, I can't refuse!".A week later, Amy posted a photo of herself and a man. The two people in the photo were extremely affectionate.

Based on this photo, the police immediately investigated the man in the photo and found that this man was Mrs. Chu's cousin.At the same time, the police also found two important clues: one was the person who called to send the express, not Amy but a man; the other was that the police extracted a fingerprint from the packaging outside the large carton, and the owner of the fingerprint was Mr. elder brother.

Suddenly, the complex case became clear, and the police began to investigate the cousin.

After this investigation, we found out that my cousin left the Chu family after his accident. Taking advantage of his handsome appearance and excellent figure, he had been hanging out in nightclubs in major cities, and made a living by defrauding women of their money.Later, he accidentally learned the news about Amy, and decided to meet again and have a tight talk.

Unexpectedly, this meeting made Amy, who lived alone, fall in love with him, and once again inspired her Stockholm plot.The two lived together as boyfriend and girlfriend, but the cousin was used to a corrupt life at this time and could not endure ordinary daily life for a long time.

The two often quarreled over this, and after the last quarrel got out of hand, the cousin, who had a criminal record, killed Amy without hesitation.This time, the criminal evidence was overwhelming, and the murderous cousin was brought to justice.

However, after the Chu family got the news, Mrs. Chu became worried.Because what my cousin did happened to fulfill the words that were cursed by the Chu family back then: "Don't just rely on your wealth and power to do whatever you want and do whatever you want. You will be repaid. The murderous devil is by your side. And never stop!”

The origin of this curse comes from the Chu family's fortune history, which is also the last thing Mrs. Chu wants to mention.

The Chu family started out doing engineering, that is, construction projects. To put it more simply, they were contractors building buildings for people.

Building a building is an extremely common and common thing in the great process of our socialist construction.What was an empty grassland in the city yesterday may become a high-rise building today. Especially with the help of a large number of modern equipment, the speed and quality of building buildings are becoming more and more perfect visible to the naked eye.

However, in the trend of history, the construction industry was not as developed as it is today, especially in backward Nanyang.Therefore, some weird and crazy construction methods appeared on the construction site, such as the brutal pile driving.

Among Nanyang folk, this word has been circulated for a long time, making many people change their minds after hearing it.The so-called driving piles, as the name suggests, is to use living people as the foundation of wooden piles and then "drive them down" alive.Because there were no reinforced concrete in ancient times, the houses built would not be very reliable. Whenever they encountered some natural disasters and other things that humans could not control, Nanyang people would pray to the gods and beg for divine help.

Therefore, the cruel thing of "driving raw piles" came into being due to luck.

Chen Lin, a writer in the late Han Dynasty, wrote in "Drinking Horses in the Great Wall Grottoes": You can't see yourself alone under the Great Wall, but the bones of dead people are supporting each other.It is said that this is the earliest record of "driving piles" in history, which shows the cruelty of this behavior.At the same time, some people say that the matter of "driving raw piles" actually comes from "The Book of Lu Ban".

Lu Ban is a grandfather in the construction industry. He invented the saw.However, his contribution to the construction industry is the real reason why people admire him so much.There are rumors in Nanyang that the "Book of Lu Ban" that was passed to Nanyang in ancient times is not about building houses, but a book about spiritual cultivation that talks about spells and spells.

Therefore, Nanyang's "Lu Ban Shu" is also known as "Lu Ban Complete Book" and "Lu Ban Divine Book". According to legend, it is divided into "upper and lower volumes" among the people, with two versions: secret transmission and explicit transmission.

Some people say that in the second volume of Nanyang's "Luban Divine Book", it is described that when people build houses in a place, if they unfortunately damage a certain local Feng Shui structure, they will offend the local "gods".Once this happens, construction workers will have accidents while the project is in operation.

Therefore, it is necessary to "sacrifice" to the gods before construction. In other words, the origin of driving piles comes from the ancient sacrificial worship of the Nanyang people.

In this primitive sacrificial worship, the earliest sacrificial objects used were not human beings, but animals.

However, I don’t know when, according to Nanyang folklore, living people are more favored by the gods, so some people replaced animals with living people.This bad feudal custom is just like the ancient river god marrying a wife. It is a feudal legacy left in the people.
