Chapter 1567： : major leads

It is recorded in the file that Dong Wu, the master of the Dong family, died suddenly at home three days ago.

He died in a strange manner, with some slight scratches on his body.

With purple lips and protruding eyes, he knelt down in front of the Buddhist altar in the room and folded his hands together.

There was no sign of any struggle in the entire room.

The strangest thing was that the gentleman hadn't seen anyone at all the day before.

He stayed in the room and chanted Buddhist scriptures.

The room contains nothing but a shrine and simple furniture.

The doors and windows in the room were sealed, and they were not opened by the servant until the body was found.

Obviously, the death certificate showed that he died of poisoning, but Wu Zuo did not find any poison.

This matter has thus become an unsolved case.

"When you inspected the scene that day, did you find anything strange?"

With doubts, Li Chengfeng asked Yin Dao of Chang'an Mansion beside him.

The Governor of Chang'an shook his head first, and then became very excited as if he remembered something.

"Yes! When we left that day, we found black water seeping from the eyes of the Buddha statue."

"Everyone was frightened that day, thinking it was a manifestation of the gods!"

Li Chengfeng was thoughtful after listening.

"You order some yamen servants, and go to Dong's house with me!"

"Yes! I'm going now!" Chang'an Fu Yin hurriedly turned around and went to deploy people.

This case is really too weird, and it has caused a great impact among the common people.

If he can't give an explanation, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his official hat.

Soon Fu Yin reappeared with several strong police officers.

The group immediately set off for Dong's house in the north of the city.

Half a quarter of an hour later, they came to the gate of a mansion.

Before the yamen servant came forward to call the door, Li Chengfeng heard the noise coming from the door.

"Today I must kill you slut."

"It's not necessarily who killed the master, why are you so excited!"

"Who else would you have, I'm going to kill you for my husband today!"

The sound of two women fighting and making noise came from inside the door.

Li Chengfeng frowned lightly, pushed open the door of the mansion and walked in.

Fu Yin and the others could only follow behind him, and walked towards the living room of Dong's house together.

Before they reached the living room, they saw two women pushing and shoving in front of them.

One of the women was a little older and had a trace of gray hair on her temples.

She grabbed the other person's neck, and her mouth was full of obscenities and insults.

The other woman was younger, she looked no more than 28 years old.

Although he was caught, his mouth was very fierce, and he kept retorting.

The servants on the side tried their best to pull the two of them, and they all spoke out to warn them.

"The two ladies don't fight anymore, and the master doesn't want you to do this either."

They didn't keep silent until they saw the governor of Chang'an in official robes.

"Mrs. Dong's family, what's going on?" Fu Yin asked in a deep voice.

The older woman in the crowd walked up to him and bowed slightly.

"My lord, it must have been that cruel concubine who killed me."

"I found it in her room today. It's a private letter!"

"It must be her black hands on the master..."

When the woman was complaining, Li Chengfeng suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the woman's hand.

"Where did you get that black stain on your sleeve?"

The woman who was talking to Fu Yin turned around and wanted to yell at him.

But after seeing Li Chengfeng's attire, he endured it again.

"My lord, I... I ran into it when I was cleaning the house," the woman replied.

"Oh? That might be my mistake!"

Li Chengfeng did not continue to ask.

"Fu Yin, it's time for us to go to the scene of the crime..."

Li Chengfeng left a word and walked straight to the Dong's mansion.

He noticed the quarrel between the two women just now.

This also made him more suspicious.

How could it be such a coincidence? It was only after the death of the head of the Dong family that the concubine had an affair.

If there was suspicion early on, it shouldn't have occurred a few days after death.

The most important thing is that he smelled the stain on the woman's sleeve just now.

That is obviously a trace of black fire oil, how could it be obtained by cleaning the room?

This kind of black fire oil can only appear in military camps, or on the black market.

A woman from a Taoist family, where did these things come from?

Li Chengfeng became more and more suspicious of the woman just now.

At least one thing is certain, that person is not a murderer and at least an insider.

Fu Yin quickly brought him to the scene of the crime.

The furnishings at the scene are generally the same as those recorded in the files.

Even the doors and windows were closed tightly.

But he was curious about one thing, the Buddha statue in the center of the room was a bit strange.

The gold paint on the Buddha statue has obviously fallen off a lot, but there are still traces of maintenance on it.

You can still smell a faint pine oil aroma from above if you get closer.

"Is the kneeling posture of this Buddha statue the same as that of Mr. Dong when he died?"

Li Chengfeng pointed to the half-human tall Buddha statue and asked.

"Yes, that's what happened to the master of the Dong family that day." The yamen servant at the side replied.

Li Chengfeng nodded, if that was the case, he would have a clue about the whole matter.

He suddenly embraced the Buddha statue with both hands, and with a little force in his hands, he lifted the whole Buddha statue up.

"do not!"

Among the crowd outside the door, the lady of the Dong family saw this scene.

I couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Li Chengfeng ignored her, and moved the Buddha statue aside.

When everyone in the room saw clearly what was under the Buddha statue, everyone was dumbfounded.

The inner wall of the hollow Buddha statue was completely blackened, especially the eyes.

Under the base of the Buddha statue, there is a small basin containing burnt black fire oil.

Seeing this scene, the old woman was so frightened that she sat down on the ground paralyzed.

"No...it's absolutely impossible!"

Li Chengfeng nodded in satisfaction, but the yamen servants and Fu Yin were full of doubts.

"Eighth prince, my subordinates are unknown, what's the use of finding this little basin?"

"Is that of any importance to the whole case?"

Fu Yin on the side asked with a puzzled expression.

Li Chengfeng waved his hand and began to explain to the governor slowly.

These things are not enough to prove anything, but combined with the previous case files, it is enough to illustrate the problem.

First of all, he doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, so naturally he doesn't believe in such nonsense as Buddha statues appearing.

As for why the Buddha statue shed black tears, he figured it out when he saw the black stains on Da Furen's clothes Black fire oil will raise black smoke when burning.

The smoke flew to the eyes of the Buddha statue.

Because when it touches the cold outer wall of the Buddha statue, it will turn into black water and flow out from the gap.

That's why black water flows out of the Buddha statue's eyes.

"But when the black oil burns, there will be a strange smell. How can this be explained?" Fu Yin continued to ask.

"That's what we have to ask our eldest lady, what do you think?"

Li Chengfeng dodges suddenly, pulls out the simple knife from the waist of the yamen servant, and throws it out.

"Clanglanglang!"

Pu Dao went straight to the door of Dong's house and stopped in front of the woman who was about to escape.
