After checking the limbs of the corpse, Chen Ze checked the head again. The result was similar to the previous corpses. The only difference was that there was a tooth mark on Chen Jianguo's corpse.

Chen Jianguo is taller than the average person, so the teeth marks are very obvious.

Chen Ze touched the tooth marks and fell into deep thought.

There may be two situations now. The first situation is homicide!
The second situation is poisoning!
Judging from the current condition of the body, he died of poisoning.

But Chen Ze still had other doubts that needed to be confirmed, that is, why did so many people die from poisoning? And the deaths were all strange. Some people had their throats cut, some had their arms chopped off, and some were cut into pieces... In short, all kinds of cruel ways of death appeared here.

Moreover, these bodies were of men, women, young and old, and not a single one was of a young man. Could it be that everyone in the village was killed? And the murderer killed his own relatives and friends with his teeth?
Chen Ze felt a splitting headache. He knew that if these speculations were true, then the murderer's cruelty was unimaginable, and he could even kill his own parents and brothers.

"Brother Ze, look, what is this?" Zhang Qiling saw Chen Ze frowning, walked to Chen Ze and reminded him.

Zhang Qiling just patted a black object on the back of the corpse.

Chen Ze came back to his senses and picked up the black object from the ground.

When he saw this thing clearly, Chen Ze was stunned.

This is actually a big soybean? Chen Ze remembered that in the TV series "Three Corpses", a poisonous insect called "Bumblebee" was mentioned.

It looks like the tail of a bee and exudes a strong stench, but has very sharp mouthparts that allow it to drill into the bodies of animals to suck out food.

And this hornet likes to sting people, so it is called the "poisonous queen bee".

"Bumblebee" is a very rare poisonous insect that only lives in tropical jungles, and only a very small number of them will drift overseas.

"How could this be possible?" Chen Ze was shocked.

"Brother Ze, what is this for?" Zhang Qiling asked.

Chen Ze pointed at the big soybean on the back of the corpse and asked: "Did you see it?"

"Yes, got it."

"Do you know what this is?"

"Soybeans, I heard they are a specialty of Hainan Island." Zhang Qiling guessed.

"Haha, soybeans? These are bumblebee eggs!" Chen Ze said affirmatively.

"Bumblebee eggs?" Zhang Qiling was stunned. "Isn't this edible?"

Chen Ze shook his head and explained: "Look, there is a tiny scratch on the bumblebee egg. It was left by its larvae crawling."

"Turns out they are bumblebee eggs, no wonder they are so disgusting." Zhang Qiling said.

"Stop talking nonsense, help me dig it up with the engineering shovel and see if there is any corpse oil inside!" Chen Ze urged. Chen Ze couldn't wait to verify his idea.

"Oh, okay!"

Zhang Qiling quickly picked up the engineer shovel and started digging the soil. After digging for a long time, he finally dug up something.

Zhang Qiling turned the corpse over and let it lie prone on the ground.

Chen Ze also followed.

Zhang Qiling took out a small reddish-brown stone from the soil.

"Is this corpse oil?" Zhang Qiling asked doubtfully.

"Yes!" Chen Ze took the stone from Zhang Qiling's hand and looked at it carefully.

Chen Ze carefully observed the texture of the stone, and suddenly his eyes widened.

This is actually a piece of amber!
That's right, Chen Ze confirmed that this was indeed a piece of amber, and the color was very bright. It was not a glass or jade product, but pure amber. Chen Ze looked at the big soybean on the back of the corpse.

This big soybean looked exactly the same as the one Chen Ze had seen before. Both were pitch black and the color was similar. Chen Ze had previously thought that the big soybean was bitten by someone's teeth, but now it seems that is not the case.

Because the corpse spots and teeth marks both prove that the big soybean was recently bitten.

Chen Ze thought about all the previous doubts again and finally found the answer.

"Where is this?" At this time, Chen Ze suddenly noticed that the cave behind the corpse was a little strange.

This is a cave, and the corpse is lying in the cave, so this cave should be where the corpse slept before.

"Brother Zhan, this is a tomb, not a place to bury people." Zhang Qiling said.

"A grave? No! Let's go." Chen Ze said as he pulled Zhang Qiling up and left.

Chen Ze pulled Zhang Qiling and walked in another direction.

"Brother Ze, why are you still going out so late?" Zhang Qiling asked puzzled.

"Shh!" Chen Ze signaled Zhang Qiling to shut up. Seeing that Chen Ze was acting mysterious, Zhang Qiling shut his mouth obediently and ran behind Chen Ze.

Chen Ze took Zhang Qiling and ran around the grave for a long time, and finally stopped.

"Brother Ze, why are you taking me around in circles?" Zhang Qiling wondered.

"Look!" Chen Ze said, pointing to the wall of the tomb.

Zhang Qiling looked over and was shocked. The walls of the tomb were covered with words!
"Brother Ze... let's run away quickly, I'm scared..." Zhang Qiling's face was pale. He was frightened by the scene before him.

"Why are you panicking? Look at those words!" Chen Ze comforted Zhang Qiling, "These are words carved by people to commemorate the owner of this tomb."

Chen Ze used his mobile phone to illuminate the words on the wall. The fonts were very ancient. Although they had been eroded by time, it was still possible to tell that they were traditional Chinese characters.

"These fonts are all ancient fonts. When I was in primary school, I read a book about Chinese characters. One of the sentences in the book was, 'I love my hometown.'"

Chen Ze explained, "It seems that the owner of this tomb should be a Chinese."

"But why would Lord Mu bury the coffin in such a place? There is nothing valuable here. Moreover, so many years have passed and the body has long since turned into dry bones. Even if there were burial objects, they are probably gone." Zhang Qiling still felt that this place was eerie and a bit unsuitable for burying people.

"What do you know! Look at this tombstone!" Chen Ze planned to analyze it from a scientific perspective.

"What?" Zhang Qiling leaned over and saw that it was written on the tombstone:

"The tomb of Zhao Deyi, a descendant of the Zhao family!"

"Brother Ze, do you mean that the tombs of Zhao's ancestors are buried here? Why is that? Could it be that the surname of this village is Zhao?" Zhang Qiling asked doubtfully.

Chen Ze said: "The Feng Shui pattern here is a Bagua formation. There is a stone sculpture in each of the eight directions. These stone sculptures are engraved with different symbols. There is one at a certain distance. Moreover, these stone sculptures are engraved vividly. At first glance, you can see that they are carefully carved. However, these symbols are all traditional Chinese characters."

"Brother Ze, do you know what these symbols are? I don't quite understand them." Zhang Qiling asked without any hesitation.

"I don't quite understand it either, but these stone carvings are arranged according to a certain pattern. This is a Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams formation!" said Chen Ze.

"Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation? What the hell is that? Why haven't I heard of it?" Zhang Qiling asked.

"I haven't heard of it either!" Chen Ze said helplessly.

In fact, Chen Ze found out about this Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Formation by searching the Internet.
After all, Chen Ze majored in archaeology in college.

However, Chen Ze only had a superficial understanding of it. As for what it was specifically, Chen Ze had no idea. (End of this chapter)
