Chapter 308: Chastity Arch

Xiaoyuer, who was depressed for a few days, was dragged to the street by her beloved son, but unexpectedly, she met a group of professional scammers who publicly cheated money, which led to a strange death incident.

Murong Xing's face was full of doubts, which forced him to express his doubts: "Are you sure this matter was not the one who just happened?" He didn't know how to coroner. Because he was a handsome young man, Murong, Gusu, has always been very arrogant. In terms of the present description, he was a nobleman, and not high-end goods were not enough to show his identity. Just like the sword in his hand, there has not been Kaifeng yet. Because Liu Ye was not worthy of his sword before, he didn't use his hands, so he used his feet.

Xiao Yuer turned her head and explained: "If a person dies due to poisoning, there are two situations. One will immediately die on the spot, such as potassium cyanide poison, and the death is very miserable. The other is chronic, organ failure and death. Naturally, the death of the dead in front of me is chronic death, and the thoughts I speculated are my thoughts. So it was not the one who did it just now." Xiao Yuer looked at Murong Xing with a smile, and his face did not change at all, but had a few slight pride in his eyes.

After Xiaoyuer finished speaking, the audience changed their qualities. The crying person just now suddenly felt embarrassed.

"What are you going to do now?" Murong Xing looked like a professor, without any fluctuation.

"Haha... let's wait for Lord Bao to come." Xiao Yu'er smiled slightly, looked at the crying person beside her intentionally or unintentionally, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

When it comes to Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives. As long as there is a disturbance, Lord Bao will do it himself. When he comes to the scene, he will have someone surrounded the platform and disperse the people. Don’t interfere with the scene. After a while, the chaotic scene becomes more and more orderly and orderly under Lord Bao’s conditioning. It is quite smooth. This makes Xiaoyuer have to admit that in this regard, civilians are still afraid of being officials.

He scolded Xiaoyuer with a depressed look on his face: "Little Yuer, why are you trying to make me do you want to do it again?"

This surprised Murong Xing and couldn't help but blurt out: "Is this Mr. Bao? Uh..." After saying this, he quickly glanced at the little fish next to him.

Xiaoyuer said aggrievedly: "How dare I make any trouble? I just went to the street and encountered something unlucky."

He looked at Xiao Yuer's harmless appearance, and wanted to kick him away, and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

Xiaoyuer said, "That's right."

Then Xiao Yuer introduced the consequences clearly and clearly. Bao Heizi next to him kept nodding, consciously appreciating his emotions and moving him with reason. He understood the case clearly and clearly.

"You are the victim?"

"Yes, the younger one is her dad."

"Birth?"

"kindness."

Sister Lin's father was crying, with no tears on his face, only a whimpering sound. Xiaoyuer kept observing.

"Where are you?"

When Mr. Bao asked, those people replied honestly. They were all neighbors. Today, they came to Tianchang County to buy New Year's goods. Sister Lin often had symptoms such as headache, dizziness, fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea, and liver pain. Some people said that this was a ghost. They happened to see the White Lotus Sect protector on the stage performing some skills of killing demons and eliminating demons. So they encouraged her to go up.

It seems that there is no article to do here, so the suspicion is naturally the escaped Liu Ye.

Murong Xing insisted on his point of view: "Liu Ye, who escaped just now, is probably the mastermind."

Xiaoyuer didn't speak, and Mr. Bao still asked:

"What was the cause of his death?"

"If further testing is required."

Bao Heizi and Xiao Yuer asked questions and answers, treating others and nothing. They did not take Murong Xing seriously at all. If you talk about martial arts, it might be less than that, but you will definitely not be able to solve the case.

After discussion, the two acted separately. Lord Bao took the man to Mrs. Lin's house to check, while Xiao Yuer took the body back to the yamen.

Sister Lin's father threw himself into his arms and said, "What are you doing? What are you doing?"

"Your daughter is dead, so we naturally need an explanation. We need to find out the cause of her death." Bao Heizi explained.

"No, we won't sue, we won't sue. Just bury my daughter." Old Man Lin looked at Xiao Yuer with blood, rushed over, trying to stop him. But how could he be the opponent of the yamen runner?

"Old Man Lin?! Do you want your daughter to die inexplicably?" Lord Bao looked at the angry old man Lin and persuaded him. It was just because he was an official and could not control it. Or because of some shameful things.

Old Man Lin still refused to let him go and said, "My daughter is chaste. I should set up a archway after death. If you do this, I will be like facing my ancestors after death."

Chastity Arch? Xiao Yuer thought of this, and it seemed that this did gradually evolve from the Song Dynasty. Under the support and advocacy of the rulers, Cheng and Zhu Neo-Confucianism emerged. Under the guidance of the idea of ​​"preserving the laws of nature and destroying human desires", she vigorously advocated that women should keep their integrity and widows could not remarry.

There is a record in "Jinsilu":

Someone asked: "Widows seem to be undesirable; how?" Mr. Yichuan (i.e. Cheng Yi) said: "However, if you take a companion for your body, if you take a companion for your body, you will lose your moral character." Another asked: "Can you have a widow who is poor and can you marry again?" He said: "It's just that later generations are afraid of cold and starving to death, so this is said. However, starving to death is extremely small, and losing moral character is extremely serious."

In this way, "Starting to death is small, losing one's integrity is big" has become a famous saying, which is strongly promoted by the ruling class.

By the Song Dynasty, due to the emergence of a group of Confucian scholars, Neo-Confucianism was formed, which changed China's academic thoughts and customs, and also made women's concept of chastity more and more intense on the basis of worshipping the ancient times.

The meaning of chastity has become very narrow, and it seems to have become a religion. Not only does it become a law of nature for husbands to stick to their integrity, but they must also be loyal to their husbands before they marry, and they must seek death if they tease men. In short, a woman's life is closely related to chastity. If there is a slight change, she must die for the whole chastity.

Sister Lin is indeed a widow. After her husband died, she returned to her home and did not remarry.

When Xiaoyuer heard the sound, she had an ominous premonition. He believed in his intuition, and his intuition told him that this might...

When Bao Heizi faced this, he had to take him to Old Man Lin’s house for inspection. I hope he could know something from it?

After a moment, the group soon arrived at Old Man Lin's house. They smelled a strange smell. When they arrived at his house, they saw that it was home here and there, and it was clearly a small workshop.

"Huh, what is this?"

"It's for making candles."

Chinese fonts evolved from pictographic characters. Now they are made of candles made of paraffin. But why are they used next to insects? In ancient times, it was made of animal fat or bees' beeswax. So when you enter the door, the fish smelled a stinky smell, as if it was the smell in Sister Lin's mouth.

Then the yamen runners checked inside and out, but they didn't find it possible. Xiao Yuer and Bao Heizi looked at each other. The two of them were at a loss and had to leave the Lin family.

At this moment, I heard some people who bought New Year’s goods passing by, “The guy I saw in the county just now is so amazing. The paper actually burns itself.”

"Nonsense, haven't you heard of a coat of yellow phosphorus?"

"Are you serious? Why don't we go back and try it?"

Hum? Hearing this, Xiaoyu'er's mind was bolt from the blue, and she seemed to have thought of something. When she was in school, the chemistry teacher taught her that phosphorus was easy to burn. In ancient times, many people sealed phosphorus in beeswax to avoid contact with the air.

Thinking about it again, the characteristic of Sister Lin's death was obviously phosphorus poisoning. So Xiaoyuer secretly sneaked back to the Lin family and started searching. Finally, she was not afraid of being tempted and found a can of sealed yellow phosphorus.

At night, a cool breeze suddenly blew in the Lin family. Suddenly, Old Man Lin felt a gust of cold wind breaking his body, and his whole body shivered in an instant. He felt that the atmosphere around him was very strange, very strange.

The burning candle suddenly disappeared, and a trace of white smoke rose. Old Man Lin felt a chill behind him, and several white shadows floated past them, making a whimpering sound.

"Dad, my daughter is so dead...he is disabled..."

"Dad, my daughter is so dead...he is disabled..."

Old Man Lin was naturally scared and his face was pale. When he saw a white shadow flying over, he had no feet. Old Man Lin sat on the ground with his butt, and felt cold all over his body, and then a scent of urine came from his body, which was so scared that he was incontinent.

Old Man Lin shivered with gums, his face trembled with dust. He knelt on the ground and cried: "Woooooo, it's all my fault..."

It turned out that in order to obtain the chastity archway and relieve the pressure on her workshop, recently, she has been feeding Sister Lin's yellow phosphorus every day, which has led to her poisoning of yellow phosphorus.
