These are your friends? I couldn't help but turn on my phone. There are no photos on the urns, and they are all spotless and neatly arranged, which shows that people often come to clean them.
I didn't touch it with my hands, it was a very disrespectful behavior. But after waiting for a while, the man didn't answer, but just stared blankly at the antique shelf.
I took a photo with my mobile phone, and he pouted. Shaking the phone said he didn't know.
They all belong here, and now they're home. The man suddenly turned around and walked out, and said again at the door, you belong here too.
I froze for a moment, not trying to figure out what that person meant right away. I am now immune to this kind of confusing sounding.
Bai Kai stared at the man as he left the room, and said, Xiao Que, this is a death threat! How the hell can you not act so calm? I am a little uncomfortable.
I don't think he meant that. I took a deep breath and tried to move the urn. To be honest, I don't know much about urns, and I don't know how much they should be. But the feeling in my hand tells me that the box is much heavier than I expected.
Now that you've touched it, you might as well do it thoroughly. Something happened to me. Bai Kai went straight to lift the lid of the urn, but didn't open it.
Fuck me! It's still a slider! Bai Kai changed the angle before opening the urn. I immediately surrounded it. There were indeed ashes in the urn, and it was quite full. I heard that no one seemed to be going up the stairs outside, so I simply drove another one. We quickly opened more than half of the urns on the entire antique shelf.
Looking at them one by one with the light, I found that these ashes all have one thing in common, that is, they are all very damp. Ordinarily, the humidity in this house is not high, not to mention it is sealed tightly with urns, so this kind of situation will not happen.
Bai Kai boldly stretched out his hand to touch it, and a lot of ashes were simply congealed into lumps.
I asked, is this really ashes? How do you make it look like the lime has been damp
Definitely is! Do not believe you try? Bai Kai carefully touched and smelled the urn: "These boxes were added later, the ashes may have been salvaged from somewhere, they must have been soaked in water.
I was stunned when I heard it, and finally thought about what the man said just now. Damn Bai Kai, could the ashes be fished from the Yin River
Have you been brainwashing lately? Bai Kai opened another ashes and suddenly exclaimed, why are there so few in this box
I looked around and saw that the ashes in this urn were obviously much less than the others, and it was almost bottomed out.
I said, could it be a child's? No ashes after burning
No, look carefully, what is this? Bai Kai stretched out his finger.
I immediately felt a chill down my spine. These ashes are very wet, so any touch can easily leave marks on them. I saw very clear traces on the ashes that looked like they had been dug with a spoon!
I couldn't help but ask, damn someone is digging up the ashes and eating them! ? Think of it as a bone-strengthening granule!
Bai Kai grabbed me and walked downstairs, I understand why Xiao Que called us here.
The lights downstairs are still on, and walking down the stairs step by step is a bit like coming ashore slowly from the sea.
The man sat on the sofa and didn't speak, but his eyes seemed to have clearly understood our discovery.
Bai Kai was unambiguous, sat down and asked the man, did you eat the ashes
The man nodded seriously, and Bai Kai asked again, then do you need our help
The man stood up, walked over to me and said, exactly, I just need this friend to help.
Bai Kai looked at me with a strange expression on his face. Said that we had to discuss it, and dragged me to a relatively remote room on the first floor.
The scene just now was a bit like my manager in vain, which made me want to laugh.
But after Bai Kai opened his mouth to tell me what that person needed my help, my expression immediately froze.
Because Bai Kai told me that the man wanted me to help eat the ashes. This is called "meat selection" in their alchemy, the meat of human flesh, the choice of vegetables. It is easy to understand the literal meaning, which is to use the flesh to choose the right thing. This method was not originally in alchemy, but in the medical hall of the royal court. Although Chinese medicine in our country is extensive and profound, it has gradually become profound after thousands of years of accumulation. In the early days, many prescriptions or medicines were not discovered, but it happened that members of the royal family had diseases that were not discovered at that time, and they were in urgent need of treatment. As a last resort, we can only choose many young and middle-aged people for meat selection. The simple explanation is actually drug testing, which is similar to the need for clinical toxicity tests before our modern drugs go on the market.
With the passage of time, this method has gradually been adopted by many industries. Although there will be some targeted modifications, the general concept is similar. Not only alchemy, but even many craftsmen of three teachings and nine first-class craftsmen will use this method. For example, those who make sculptures will use meat to choose jade materials, those who raise spiritual or evil objects will use meat to choose their masters, and in the end, they will even change to choose coffins with corpses, weapons with blood, and so on. This all falls under the category of meat selection.
And what that person is doing now is to pick out the one he wants from among the ashes who can't tell who is who.
The ashes are not like corpses, even if they are rotten, they can still be identified with the current dna method. Once the ashes are mixed together, it is almost impossible to separate or classify them. Like the ashes burned in a crematorium, some of them are left over from the incinerator, and it is impossible to know who belongs to whom. Earlier, he had seen with his own eyes that a relative of a family had died, and the ashes were burned out, because too many other people's ashes were mixed in, which eventually caused trouble at home.
Bai Kai talked a lot, very detailed, and the meaning is very obvious. Explain the whole story of this matter clearly, and the decision-making power rests with me.
I didn't intend to help in my heart, but I still want to know how to choose meat after eating ashes. So I asked a few more questions.
Bai Kai sighed and explained that the selection of ashes usually only happened in old wars. These are usually immediate family members of the deceased, the closer the blood relationship the better. If the ashes are eaten and can be excreted, they belong to the non-family members, while those absorbed or left in the body belong to the family members. After all the ashes are eaten, people have to fast for three to seven days, during which they can only drink water. In the end, this person is equivalent to becoming a living urn.
Just now I just listened to something new, but after hearing Bai Kai's explanation, I muttered in my heart.
Only immediate family members should eat it. Who the hell do I know who these ashes are? Why should I eat it? Damn, my mother gave birth to an older brother or a younger brother behind my back
I said, that's not right! Our family is living well, the ashes have nothing to do with me!
"Since that person wants your help, he won't mess around. I have no right to meddle in your family's affairs. Whether the relationship between you two is a couple or brothers, you can only divide it yourself." Bai Kai looked at it Outside the door, but that person has something to ask of you, I think we can talk to him about the conditions.
On condition that I tell you everything I know—about you. The man suddenly spoke and walked in from the door. I couldn't see his expression in the dark, but I felt that his words were very serious.
what do you know Damn, if I'm poisoned to death, where can I justify it? I turned my face to where the man was.
I can tell you who I am, and I can tell you who you are.
I obviously felt that Bai Kai had pinched me, and whispered, Xiao Que, promise him. I have a way.
Now I am completely hesitant. I don't know what the consequences will be if I agree, but the thought of eating the ashes is already very unacceptable.
Then tell me, who wrote the distress message in this room? Is that person out? I am probing this question.
did not go out. The man was silent for a while and then said, I don't know, and I don't need to know. Enough people died for this matter, I'm not interested in caring about them one by one.
His words were harsh, but they sounded like the truth. I didn't know how to open my mouth for a while. I still want to deal with him, but I can't figure out what is related to him. So I had to ask, what about after meat selection? You put me up
After the meat selection, I will take you to a place, a place where I should go. You better hurry, time is running out.
