Crazy Detective
chapter-1744

“At fouro’ clock in the afternoon, Tian Dongmin, an old expert from Qinshan city’s cultural relics Bureau, arrived at the scene. After examining the items found at the scene, he said to Zhao Yu, ”

“There might be a temple down there!” ”

Zhao Yu and the others were dumbfounded.

“A temple?!” Because of her curiosity, cui Lizhu even missed the last helicopter back to Qinshan and stayed at the scene.”The kind of temple where people burn incense?” ”

“Yes,” Tian Dongmin pointed to the unicorn that was first excavated and said,”this thing is called a Pixiu. Judging from its shape and material, it should be the kind of auspicious beast that is embedded in the roof! ”

“And these …” He then pointed to a few incomplete stone beasts, as well as all kinds of tiles and blue bricks that were excavated later and said,”these are all materials used in ancient buildings! ”

“In the mountains, other than a temple, what else can it be?” ”

“There was a temple on this hillside …” Zhao Yu said, putting his hands on his waist.”Why didn’t anyone tell us about it? No one knows?” ”

“The Temple was destroyed by a landslide,” Miao Ying said.”The landslide happened in the early 1990s, which means that the temple has been buried for nearly 30 years. Plus, it was deep in the forest, so it’s reasonable that no one knows about it.” ”

“The temple, the well, the corpses … ”

“Zhao Yu couldn’t help but scratch his head. He had thought that once they had found what was underneath, there would be significant progress in the case, but now it seemed even more complicated. ”

“Professor Tian,” Miao Ying pointed to the excavated objects and asked,”can you determine the age of this temple?” ”

“Hmm …” Tian Dongmin looked at the excavated items carefully and said,”from the shape of the equipment, it can’t be too old. At most, it was from the late Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China.” ”

“I think so too …” Cui Lizhu said.”It’s crudely made, so it’s definitely not worth much!” ”

“I think it might be a mountain god temple?” Professor Tian said,”in the area near the Qinling Mountains where people live, we have discovered many mountain god temples in the past. They are all very small in scale. ”

“This has something to do with the culture of Longxi. ”

“Actually, it shouldn’t be hard to understand. The residents of the coastal areas worship the sea god Empress, so we mountain people naturally Revere the mountain god. ”

“In order to pray for good weather, or to be able to catch prey, people will build mountain temples in the depths of the mountains. ”

“Therefore, it’s normal for a mountain god temple to be excavated here.” ”

“Mountain god temple … Lin Chong mountain god temple on a snowy night …” Cui Lizhu patted her head.”Oh my God, why do you think of the legend of Water Bank?” ”

“Then … Will the scale be large?” Miao Ying asked, pointing at the bottom of the pit. ”

“I can’t say for sure, but it’s such a remote mountain, so it shouldn’t be that big, right?” After professor Tian finished his analysis, he asked curiously,”by the way, aren’t you guys Criminal Police? Could it be that … They had found another archeology-related case? ”

“You’re right,” he said, pointing at cui Lizhu and then at the man.”This kind of rough folk product is not old and has no collection value.” ”

“Well, no matter what …” Zhao Yu said.”Please!” We’ll be excavating through the night. If we dig up anything else, you’ll have to help us identify it!” ”

“Okay, no problem, no problem. You saved my life before,” Tian Dongmin said politely to Zhao Yu and Miao Ying.”I will do my best!” ”

“Thank you!” ”

“After Miao Ying said that, the three of them left professor Tian and went to the side of the excavation site. ”

“Amazing,” cui Lizhu asked Zhao Yu curiously.”You two even saved his life?” Can you tell me about it? It’s going to be really exciting, right?” ”

“Of course. Your sister Miao and I fought with the grave robbers and found the Golden Buddha that had been missing for hundreds of years. We also saved the old expert,” Zhao Yu said calmly.”But, I, Zhao Yu, take it as my responsibility to save the world. I have saved many people, so there is nothing to be proud of.” ”

“Okay, now is not the time to talk about this,” Miao Ying said to cui Lizhu with a serious face.”Cui, since you missed the last flight back to Qinshan, are you still going to Fu ‘an tomorrow?” ”

“If you don’t go, I’ll ask Wu Xiumin to go.” ”

“Go, I must go!” Cui Lizhu said,”sis Wu still has to find out the identity of deceased number three! ”

“How about this? I’ll leave with the people at the forest protection station tomorrow. From here, we’ll go to Xixia province. Then, we’ll take the long-distance bus from zhangze to Fu ‘an. It’ll be faster this way!” ”

“Hmm, that’s good too!” Zhao Yu pointed at the tent in the distance.”Tonight, let’s stay in the wilderness for another night!” ”

……

“On the hill, more than a dozen generators were roaring, providing electrical light to the excavation site. ”

“It was already eighto’ clock in the evening, but the armed police officers did not take a break and were still digging at the scene. ”

The pit gradually grew from 20 meters to 30 meters.

“Further down, they dug out more building materials, such as green bricks, tiles, stone pillars, and other items. As they dug out more and more things, the situation became clearer. ”

Professor Tian Dongmin’s speculation was correct. There was indeed an ancient temple buried under the hillside.

“Moreover, through the comparison of the unearthed objects, the professor was even more convinced that this was a mountain god temple built during the Republic of China or the early days of the liberation. ”

“Let me guess …” At this moment, in one of the tents on the side of the hill, cui Lizhu was holding Zhao Yu’s notebook.”Since the murderer dug a well here and buried the victim alive, then … This person must have known that the mountain god temple was buried under the hill.” ”

“Then … Why did he kill them?” Cui Lizhu drew a big question mark on her notebook and asked,”could it be that … There is a living sacrifice in the mountain god temple?” ”

“Hey, don’t draw nonsense, okay?” Zhao Yu grabbed the notebook.”This is my notebook. What are you drawing?” ”

“The landslide was 30 years ago, which means that the murderer of this case must be over 30 years old, but …” Cui Lizhu continued to hold her chin and guess,”if he had any feelings for the mountain god temple, it means that he must have been 10 or 20 years old at the time of the landslide …” ”

“In other words … The murderer’s age should be around 40 to 50 years old, or even older!” ”

“The key is … Why did you kill him?” Zhao Yu said,”Miao Ying and I guessed that the murderer wanted revenge, so the deceased must have offended the murderer before she died! ”

“But … The mountain god temple … What’s the meaning of it?” ”

“Do you think …” Cui Lizhu racked her brains,”the landslide is not a natural disaster, but an accident?” ”

“An accident?” ”

“For example … The four deceased used explosives to blow up the mountain and cause a landslide in order to gain some benefits?” Cui Lizhu guessed. ”

“Blow up a mountain?” Zhao Yu scratched his head.”There’s no mine in the mountain, so why did you blow it up?” ”

Zhao Yu’s walkie-talkie suddenly rang.

“Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu …” Miao Ying’s voice came from the walkie-talkie.”Don’t be busy analyzing the case. Hurry up and call Zhang Peipei!” ”

“Ah? What’s wrong?” Zhao Yu was surprised,”where are you?” ”

“I’m in a pit! Quickly come over and take a look!” Miao Ying said quickly,”it turns out that it’s not just the temple of Xuanji mountain that’s buried in the soil!” ”
