"Brother Soldier, I'm afraid you are not a fool."
It was a rare occasion for Xiaodouzi to refute. She covered her little nose, her face turned slightly pale, and said in a low voice: "Can this be called fragrant? It's more pungent than a latrine in summer!"
The soldier smiled bitterly and turned to look at me.
Having no choice but to reach out and rub this girl’s head, I said: "This time, your soldier brother is really not confused. This is indeed a stuffy smell."
When it comes to professional issues, the soldier can't make mistakes. If he can't even recognize the smell of stuffy fragrance, then he has been in vain all these years.
The so-called stuffy smell is actually a jargon term often used by local masters, and it is actually corpse odor.
There are also different types of corpse odor.
When a person has just died and the body has decomposed, there is a simple smell at that time, the smell of rotting flesh, similar to the smell of cats and dogs next to the trash cans on the street.
However, if you enter a pit, the smell of those ancient corpses will be very particular.
Of course, most of the ancient corpses are basically reduced to a handful of withered bones due to the corrosion of time. If the soil in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is highly acidic, it would be good if the bones can be picked up. Such ancient corpses are naturally not What smell will there be? I am only talking about a very small number of ancient corpses, the most common of which are probably mummified corpses and wet corpses.
The so-called wet corpses mean that the moisture content in the corpses is extremely high, even higher than that of living people. Some of them are simply soaked in water. Strangely enough, the moisture content of these corpses meets the growth conditions of microorganisms, but they are They do not breed microorganisms, do not rot, and do not deteriorate. Some have existed for hundreds of years and their appearance is still clear. Although it is not as lifelike as many people boast, it looks similar to a person who has drowned recently.
Such a corpse is fishy at most, but it is definitely not smelly. People in the industry call this smell "watery".
But the mummy is different. This kind of corpse has extremely low moisture content and cannot be parasitized by microorganisms. Therefore, it is particularly well preserved and has a very strong smell, especially if it is kept in a coffin. Once the coffin lid is opened, it is called ecstasy. It smells like the stinky socks of a man who picks his feet and doesn't take off his shoes for three months. Coupled with the smell of salted fish, those who are weak can be suffocated by the smell. The stench will persist for thousands of years. This stench is called stuffy. fragrant.
Because this kind of corpses need to be treated by special means. If you have no skills in life, you really won't get this kind of treatment after death. Therefore, as long as there are mummies in the pit, good things will be found in nine out of ten, Tufuzi Naturally, people don't care about the smell, and even flock to it. They have a very high evaluation of this smell, and there is a historical background to saying that it smells bad.
"Oh, every line has its own merits."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiukun laughed and said: "If you two brothers write a novel about what you have experienced along the way, it will definitely become popular!"
I shook my head and thought, what’s there to write about about running scoreboards to dig up bad guys’ ancestors? I'm already immoral enough, but I still have to bring out that ugly thing. Isn't this stripping myself naked and parading it to the public?
Ignoring him, I walked towards one of the corpses.
I have doubts in my heart. The stuffy smell is indeed a smell that takes time to ferment out. How come there is such a smell here?
Wow!
I lifted the white sheet off a corpse.
Under the sheet is really a mummy. This corpse should have been at least 1.7 meters tall before death. However, due to severe shrinkage after death, it looked curled up and rickety. At most, it looked like a little over 1.4 meters. There are no traces, and the shape and structure of the bones are clear at a glance. There is a layer of black hard skin on the outside. There seems to be an oily shine on the outside of the hard skin. The mouth is slightly open, as if something terrible has happened before death, and the face is not ordinary. ferocious!
The soldier flicked the belly of the mummy and made a "bang bang bang" sound.
"It's almost like a drum head."
The soldier turned around and grinned: "I don't think you should come to us for this matter. You should go to archaeological experts."
Zhang Xiukun's head doesn't seem to be that active. I've been telling Xiaodouzi about the stuffy fragrance for a long time, but he didn't figure out anything wrong at all. At this time, he was even more confused: "What do you mean? I don't understand very well."
"This is an ancient corpse!!"
The soldier said solemnly: "If you touch this skin, it's very hard and has a waxy feel. I'm afraid it's been at least a thousand years since it died. I'm pretty good about this. If you die like this, It takes time to accumulate and brew!”
"This is impossible!"
Zhang Xiukun glanced at the numbers on the white sheets and said: "All the deceased died recently. We have conducted DNA comparisons and it is completely consistent with the ID information they carried with them. For example, the person you see now , his name was Ma Wei, he died a week ago, his job was a senior executive of a foreign-funded enterprise, one night a week ago he took his clients out to socialize, and stayed out all night, and died next to the garbage dump the next day. His family I've seen them all and it's confirmed without a doubt, how could it be an ancient corpse?"
"This is strange."
The soldier scratched his head and muttered: "You mean, this is a modern man who died a week ago, but his body's condition is similar to that of an ancient corpse, and it even smells of stuffy incense?"
"I don't understand ancient corpses."
Zhang Xiukun shook his head and said: "But I am very sure of the identity of the deceased. The recent series of cases are very strange. The deceased are all male, and they all turned into mummies like this after death. There is currently no connection with the murderer. There are no relevant clues, or even any connection between the deceased. The murderer seems to kill people randomly as he pleases, and then leaves the people in such horrible shapes after killing them!"
The soldier was unsure, so he turned to me and asked: "Xiaojiu, what do you say?"
I have no idea.
The smell is there, and the appearance of the deceased looks like a thousand-year-old corpse, but the deceased is a modern person. This situation is so weird, my mind is a little confused.
"Is it possible... that it was the murderer?"
Ji Zi suddenly said: "The murderer is that kind of thing, and there will always be unknown methods. Maybe the murderer we encountered will make people become similar to ancient corpses?"
After thinking about it, this inference seems to be the most reliable.
"Let's look at the other corpses and maybe we'll find something."
Ji Zi sighed and said: "Looking back, we need all the information related to the deceased, including the test results of the autopsy, all the information of the deceased, and the location where the deceased appeared before his death. In this way, we may be able to infer the general activities of the murderer. area, and its capabilities!"
I nodded, now I have to do this, this is another unsolved case!
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Xiaodouzi exclaimed.
I just discovered that this child ran into a corner of the morgue at some point. His face was full of panic, which made me very curious. This child is different from other children. Brother Jun became like that. I wasn't even scared, but I was panicking at this moment. I quickly asked: "What's wrong?"
"This body..."
Xiaodouzi pointed at the corpse next to her and said in horror: "It...it has hair on it, green hair!!"
"Holy shit!"
The soldier's eyes widened and he muttered: "Xiaojiu, it's not a good thing to have hair on this corpse, especially the green hair. Are we afraid that we have touched a rice dumpling?"
