Chapter 300 Detective in Progress
"Please look at the traces in the cemetery."
Upon hearing Tang Yu's words, everyone stood on tiptoe and craned their necks.
They wanted to see what had happened in this cemetery that prompted Tang Yu to specifically remind them.
They then discovered that this was originally an abandoned cemetery where no one would visit it.
Surprisingly, instead of being overgrown with weeds, the area is now quite beautiful, adorned with various plants.
Moreover, judging from this road, it seems that people often come here to worship.
The road was specially repaired, and there wasn't a speck of dust on the tombstone.
At the same time, the presence of offerings indicates that someone had worshipped these nobles.
Upon seeing this scene, his eyes narrowed instantly, clearly realizing some terrifying possibility.
"Could it be that some remnants of the former Ji family have survived?"
"I feel it's really possible."
"Otherwise, besides the Ji family, who else would dare to worship these people? Aren't they afraid of being implicated?"
"Back then, His Majesty the Emperor exterminated their entire clan."
“If they weren’t one of their own, they would never come to pay their respects.”
Based on this, that person must be alive.
The nobles knew the inside story and were still discussing it intensely.
The people were curious because they noticed that the area around the tombstone wasn't a deserted garden.
"Grand Preceptor, didn't you say that the Ji family was wiped out in the world?"
Why are there still traces of worship in their cemetery?
"Moreover, it seems like they've come quite often."
"Yes, the offerings are all laid out here. What's going on?"
The Imperial Advisor listened to the questions posed by the crowd of people.
Tang Yu pretended to think for a moment, and then slowly spoke under everyone's gaze.
"I have also noticed this situation, and according to my master's speculation, it must be the work of ghosts."
"They maintained their own cemetery and cleaned the tombstones."
"They even secretly went to Handan city to buy offerings to worship at the altar."
"Sure enough, the case of Chen Zhongzhi in Handan was caused by this group of ghosts."
"Men! Begin digging out their remains."
"Let these ghosts know the consequences of their evil deeds."
When Tang Yu finished speaking, everyone was completely dumbfounded.
They never expected such obvious signs of human intervention.
Tang Yu could only understand it as the work of a ghost, and even the ghost could defeat him, how could that be possible?
However, looking at Tang Yu's serious expression as he spoke, they still had some doubts and uncertainties.
After all, based on their understanding, the Grand Preceptor was one of the most intelligent people in Qin, so he shouldn't have made such a mistake.
And so, several soldiers arrived in front of these dozens of burial mounds.
Tang Yu gave the order.
"Start digging the grave."
Without the slightest hesitation, the soldiers began to vigorously swing their shovels.
Upon witnessing this scene, one of the nobles clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth.
"How can it be repaired! How can it be repaired!"
"Tang Yu, Tang Yu, how dare you?"
"How dare you dig up my Ji family's graves and disturb my family and friends who are sleeping in the ground."
"Tang Yu, I want you dead."
He never expected that Tang Yu would have such a unique way of thinking.
They insisted on digging up the remains of the Ji family members to humiliate them.
But when he thought about their grand plans and schemes...
He forcibly suppressed his thoughts and anger, and said through gritted teeth.
"No, I have to hold back."
"Whether for our strategy or for the future, I must endure it."
"Let Tang Yu be arrogant for a while. When my future plan succeeds, that will be the time when Tang Yu dies."
Tang Yu narrowed his eyes as he looked at the coffins that the soldiers had dug up.
According to the phone call he made to Brother Zheng at that time, it seems that Brother Zheng knew that these coffins did not exist back then.
He simply allowed these people to be laid to rest and to be buried.
As for the coffin, Tang Yu confirmed that Brother Zheng was definitely not that kind-hearted.
He was buried with only a straw mat, and the coffin was obviously placed there later.
Interesting! Very interesting!
Judging from the appearance of this coffin, it must be from many years ago, indicating that the perpetrator has been entrenched in the city of Handan for many years.
This is yet another clue, and Tang Yu now feels that he is not far from uncovering the other party's identity.
But now, looking at the list submitted by Shen Lang, he suddenly felt a little unwilling to play this detective game anymore.
Because he knew that all he needed to do next was two simple actions, and the other party would jump out of the door on their own.
As for this so-called evidence and reasoning, it's already too late.
Dozens of coffins were laid out in front of him, and Tang Yu glanced at them.
He then glanced at the nobles and slowly began to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is where those evil spirits reside."
"Now, we're going to dig them out of this coffin."
"Then, let them stand trial."
Seeing Tang Yu spouting nonsense with such a straight face, the nobles could only hurriedly agree.
Although they didn't know what tricks Tang Yu was playing, they were clear about one thing.
If Tang Yu didn't have fun, then they would definitely be the ones who suffered.
"Someone, open the coffin."
It was yet another simple and brutal order. Faced with Tang Yu's command, the soldiers and swordsmen immediately obeyed without hesitation.
They directly took a professional spoon and began to pry open the coffin lid.
As one coffin after another was opened, the skeletons of many adults were exposed to the public.
Many parts of the remains are missing or corroded.
Even if they later moved the remains into this coffin.
Because it was exposed underground from the beginning, it is still subject to severe erosion.
However, it was also because of this coffin.
They are still very well preserved to this day.
Immediately, an excited smile appeared in Tang Yu's eyes.
He shifted his gaze from the group of nobles to the group in front of him.
Who exactly was it? Was it the only lucky survivor of the Ji family? He was curious too.
If I were to do something like that later, I wonder if the survivor would still be able to hold back.
Tang Yu neatly arranged the dozens of skeletons in front of everyone, and then slowly began to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the culprit behind the frequent murders in Handan."
"Now, our master will first perform an exorcism on them."
"Finally, punishment shall be imposed in accordance with the major laws."
Only after hearing Tang Yu's words did everyone realize what was happening.
So it was an exorcism. In this day and age, exorcisms are a very common practice.
The person hiding among the nobles also breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, Tang Yu took out a large pot and slowly began to speak.
"When it comes to exorcising evil spirits, nothing works better than wastewater."
"Now, my master needs to throw all these corpses into this boiling water to perform an exorcism."
