Chapter 133 Seventh Lady 03
"The nun who is practicing on behalf of me has been dead for many days without being found?" Bo Ruoyou asked suspiciously.
Wu Xiang nodded, "Yes, not only that, the deceased also died in a house with locked doors and windows. Because there was no movement for several days, other nuns in the nunnery broke open the door and saw her. Long dead."
"The nun in the nunnery came to report to the official. I took people out of the city to have a look. The body was decomposed, but the cause of death was traumatic injuries. No other clues were found at the scene, so I came to ask you to do an autopsy."
Bo Ruoyou nodded, waited for Zhou Liang to bring the box, and then told Cheng Yunzhi to get on the carriage and leave the city.
On the way, Bo Ruoyou knew that the nunnery was called Shuiyue nunnery, which had been located to the east of Luoshui in the south of the city for many years. Since there were many Buddhist temples and Taoist temples such as Xiangguo Temple nearby, the incense was not prosperous. On weekdays, it mostly relied on wealthy people in the city. Relief.
Bo Ruoyou knew it well. When the carriage left the city gate, he turned east and followed the path all the way to Tingshan Mountain in the southeast outside the city. Tingshan Mountain is a continuous low hill on the left bank of Luoshui River. There are many landscaped pavilions on it. It is also a place for recreation. Shuiyuean is located in the west mountain col with unusual scenery.
In early autumn, the mountain breeze is slightly cool, the mountains and fields are lush with green cover, and half-yellow wormwood is like waves. As the carriages and horses pass by, birds are frightened. As soon as the carriages arrive at Shuiyue Temple, they see the door of the nunnery open. , two government officials were guarding the door, and two nuns in crow-blue robes were waiting with pale faces.
Seeing Wu Xiang and Bo Ruoyou coming, the government officials came out first. Wu Xiang walked in front and asked, "What's the matter? There's someone at home."
The official shook his head and said, "Not yet, the people from the nunnery haven't come back yet."
Wu Xiang frowned and looked back at Bo Ruoyou, "Let's do an autopsy first."
Bo Ruoyou followed, and after entering the door, he secretly looked at the nunnery. The nunnery was indeed a bit desolate. In front were several Buddhist halls with Buddha statues, and behind them were the Buddhist nuns’ monastery, and further back were the monastery rooms. , but there are still two small courtyards. The deceased died in this small courtyard.
The person guarding the gate of the courtyard was Hou Yang, accompanied by an old nun. She looked to be over fifty years old. She was holding a string of Buddhist beads and was reciting scriptures in a low voice when she saw Wu Xiang and Bo Ruoyou coming over. , his expression just straightened out.
Wu Xiang pointed to the upper room in the courtyard and said, "The deceased is in there."
There are three upper rooms in this courtyard, as well as left and right wing rooms. There are some green bamboos planted in the corner of the atrium. However, the walls of the courtyard are not high. Bo Ruoyou feels that if there is a place to step on, she can do it. Turning in and out.
She followed Wu Xiang, and as soon as she walked to the door of the upper room, she smelled the stench of rotting corpses in the room, frowned slightly, and then saw the broken door latch on the ground.
Wu Xiang took her to the right wing, "The body is inside. This room is different from ordinary Zen rooms. The left wing is the conservatory, and this is the bedroom. The body is on the bed, but there is trauma on the forehead. We haven't Move the body."
As soon as he entered the door, Bo Ruoyou saw the body on the bed.
This is originally a nunnery and Zen temple, but the interior decoration of this room does not have the meaning of the austerity of the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha. It is fully furnished with all the furniture, embroidered bed tents, and screen ornaments. It looks like an ordinary women's boudoir. generally.
The room was filled with a stench. Bao Ruoyou took out a silk handkerchief and tied it on his face, then put on his gauntlet, and then walked towards the bed.
Now in the late summer and early autumn, if the weather is sunny, it is still a bit hot, so the body decomposes very quickly. Taking two steps closer, Bo Ruoyou can see the maggots attached to the surface of the body. The injury on his forehead is serious. , there were bloodstains all over the forehead earlier, but now maggots were crawling in the corpse's wounds, eye sockets, and mouth and nose, making Wu Xiang feel sick to his stomach as he watched.
Bao Ruoyou turned around and took a styrax pill in his mouth, and lit the incense in a corner of the room. When the faint smoke started to rise, Bao Ruoyou asked Hou Yang to help fetch water, and then went to the front door. View the body.
Due to the rapid decomposition, the facial features of the corpse have been somewhat deformed, but it can still be seen that she is a young woman. She is wearing the same robe as the nuns outside, lying on the bed with her shoes on, and her hands hanging down casually. On the side of the body, the skin on the hand was shriveled into a layer of skin and covered with scars. Bo Ruoyou didn't move the body, but looked at the bed tent first.
Although the bed tent was a bit old, it did not look like the original nunnery. The brocade quilt under the body of the deceased was also embroidered with complicated patterns. Bo Ruoyou could already see a small piece of white fly eggs stuck to it. She took a closer look. , inexplicably felt that the brocade quilt underneath her body had traces of being scratched by the deceased. Soon, she asked Wu Xiang to help move the body to the ground for inspection.
The maggots and fly eggs were washed away with clean water, and the corpse returned to its original appearance. Bo Ruoyou carefully took off the robe on the corpse, and her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled even more. The abdomen of the corpse was bulging, and the thighs were already somewhat rotten. It was swollen, and the lower body was covered with corpse green and fly eggs. Purple branch-like blood veins were distributed under the skin of the chest, abdomen and thighs, which looked particularly terrifying.
"This nun must not be from the nunnery, right? She has been dead for at least seven days. Why did she report to the official today?"
As Bo Ruoyou asked, he leaned forward to examine the body. Wu Xiang said: "It is true. Master Jinghui outside said that this girl was sent here half a year ago. In addition to offering incense, their nunnery also occasionally In addition to giving lectures to rich families, there is another use. Some families will send girls who have made mistakes in their families to this place to make them reflect on themselves. This girl was sent here after she made a mistake. It has been half a year. , she has a very weird temperament, and she is also a bit crazy. She can be nice and talkative when she is good, but once she is unhappy, she behaves like a madman."
"Either she would lock herself in her room, not eating or drinking, going on a hunger strike, hoping that her family would pick her up. Normally in this situation, the nunnery would send someone to the capital to ask if they were willing to pick her up. Just accept it, and if you don't want to, let her make trouble. Master Jinghui said that this is not the first time that this girl has locked herself up. The longest time was that she didn't go out for ten days."
"What did she eat and drink?" Bo Ruoyou asked while checking the head wound of the deceased.
"There is a rear window in the left wing, which is large enough for dishes and chopsticks to come in and out. Meals are brought in every day. I went to see them just now. There were a lot of steamed buns and rice piled in the window. No one has touched them for many days. Passed."
Bao Ruoyou raised his eyes and glanced at Wu Xiang, seeming to find it strange, "You haven't moved for many days, don't they think it's strange?"
Wu Xiang's eyes also darkened, "It is said that she is used to making troubles, and in the past few days, she has been very busy doing rituals for several families in the city, and has no time to care about her. Until today, it has been seven years. No one was around in the sun, so I knocked on the door and came in."
Bo Ruoyou said nothing and continued to explore the injuries on the deceased.
The muscles and bones are those of a young man. In addition to the injury on his forehead, there are some old scars on his body, but they are not new today. After Bo Ruoyou carefully inspected them, he thought for a moment and then looked towards the bed. .
There was a lot of blood between the strands of the deceased's hair, and a lot of blood was also found on the pillow she was just lying on. She picked up the pillow and looked at it, frowning, "The year of the deceased She must be around eighteen to nineteen years old. It is initially suspected that she died due to excessive blood loss from the injury on her forehead. She looked weak and thin. The injury was already serious. It would have been fine if she had been treated in time. She had lost so much blood. , it is normal to lose one’s life, but an autopsy is required to determine the cause of death.”
This is not an unknown corpse, Wu Xiang said, "Then we have to wait for a while until her family members arrive first."
Bao Ruoyou was not in a hurry. She cleaned her hands, took out a pen and paper to record what she had just earned, and then couldn't help but go to the left wing. As soon as she entered the left wing, she saw that it was decorated as a study room. , the book desk was fully stocked with ink and calligraphy. In addition to Buddhist scriptures, there were more ordinary books. She flipped through two books placed on the desk at random, and unexpectedly found that the handwriting of the deceased was very beautiful.
Wu Xiang and Hou Yang were outside asking questions to the teacher. After a while, he came in, frowning and looking unhappy, "This girl turns out to be the daughter of the Liu family in Pingkangfang."
Bo Ruoyou was puzzled, "Liu family?"
Wu Xiang nodded, "The Liu family used to be a noble family, with the title Zhongyongbo. After the death of the previous generation, their five-generation hereditary title came to an end. Even so, they are still a family that is either rich or noble. This girl It’s the seventh young lady in their house, she’s so good, why was she sent here to suffer like this?”
After hearing this, Bao Ruoyou frowned slightly, and suddenly stood up and walked to the right compartment where the body was parked. The body was covered by her robe. At this moment, she opened her robe and looked at the lower abdomen of the deceased. Quickly, she straightened up, "Miss Liu has never been married, right?"
Wu Xiang shook his head, "No, never married."
Bo Ruoyou's eyes were darkened, "Let's wait until her family comes."
