119. The princess is really gone!(1/3)

After leaving the library, Gu Ye called the old man and agreed to meet. He went to the Municipal History Museum with Xia Xiang that day. Xia Xiang's grandfather was the old director of the Municipal History Museum. When he was young, he was an archaeologist and an expert who went to the field in person.

The old man was energetic, with a literary style, and was gentle with glasses. However, it might be because of a genetic problem. He was not tall and thin, and also had a baby face. From a distance, he was just a little old man. Gu Ye looked at Xia Xiang again and almost couldn't hold back his joy. When Xia Xiang saw him like this, he knew what he was thinking. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and just wanted to beat him up, "I'm just like this when I'm old, I know, don't look at me!"

Gu Ye is innocent. He said nothing, but he didn't say anything, why are you still anxious?

The old man invited Gu Ye to the museum and told the situation of the princess, "Princess Anle has been dead for more than 500 years. She appeared in a private auction house abroad a year ago. Because her body was not corrupt, it aroused the interest of a wealthy businessman in China. She bought it and brought it back to China. Unexpectedly, the wealthy businessman died three months later. After several defeats, the three wealthy businessmen who collected her died. The son of the third wealthy businessman felt that she was too unfortunate and donated her to us."

Xia Xiang told Gu Ye: "It is said that this princess has a curse. Whoever collects it will die. Those who like to collect mummies dare not accept her. It is difficult to sell it. She is afraid of death at home, so she sent it to the museum."

The old man pretended to be angry and raised his face, "Don't talk nonsense. If someone can donate, it means he has noble character and be grateful."

Xia Xiang quickly catered to him, "Yes, we must learn from others' noble character."

The old man nodded with satisfaction and then continued: "I just wanted to study whether there is a so-called curse in this corpse. From the coffin to the corpse, I studied it all, but I didn't find anything that caused death. I just wanted to find some colleagues to come and take a look. I just put her in this research room the day before yesterday. When I checked the information, someone said, "The princess is running away."

Gu Ye's eyes lit up and he asked with interest: "Have you run away?"

"Yes," the old man walked in front with his hands behind his back, "Yes, someone saw her walking out here with his own eyes, and we still have surveillance. In fact, everyone doesn't believe in the saying of ghosts, just want your opinion to refer to it."

Gu Ye looked at Xia Xiang, it was so exciting, run by himself!

Xia Xiang's eyes signaled him not to be so happy. The researchers here did not believe in ghosts. His grandfather could believe it because he could see ghosts since he was a child. His grandfather was used to it. He said: "This time I came to you, I was looking for you privately, and many people didn't know. Waiting for them to find them with scientific methods, the princess may be rotten outside and they can't find them back."

"Did you call the police?"

"No, who believes that the body has gone out by itself?"

While talking, the old man called a few people over, "These are all people present at the time of the incident that night. These two were my students. They were my assistants that night," the old man pointed at a young man of 25 or 26, "Li Xuan, this girl is Ding Xiaoxiao."

The girl named Ding Xiaoxiao kept staring at Gu Ye, her eyes full of excitement. Gu Ye estimated that the other party might know him, so he smiled politely, and Ding Xiaoxiao immediately blushed. Li Xuan next to him immediately frowned, looking at Gu Ye's eyes were neither cold nor indifferent, and he looked a little hostile.

Gu Ye looked at the elder brother in the security suit and said, "This is Lu Qiangjun. He was on duty that night and watched her leave with his own eyes."

When the elder brother named Lu Qiangjun mentioned what happened that night, his face turned pale and he said in horror: "Yes, I watched her walk out and walked to the door and looked at me. It was so terrible! Even if he was beautiful when he was alive, he would be a mummy when he died. The flesh on his face was dry, which was so terrible! I have videos here, do you want to watch it?"

"Let's have a look together."

"You guys wait."

Just as Lu Qiangjun was playing the video, Ding Xiaoxiao walked to Gu Ye and said shyly: "I suspect that the princess is looking for her lover. I have research materials. This princess has several relationships, and every time she is broken up by her father. She likes three people before and after, and all three people died. In the end, she married the person she disliked the most. After two years of marriage, the man died. The princess eventually died when she was twenty-five years old."

After hearing this, Gu Ye asked seriously: "This princess is unlucky, and all those who like her are dead."

Ding Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and corrected: "No, she just had a rough relationship, it was so miserable."

Gu Ye was speechless and thought that this princess was quite active and had such a rich emotional history at only 25 years old. How could she be miserable? Isn’t she very quick to change her mind?

At this time, Lu Qiangjun found the video and started playing it. In the video, the princess first moved her limbs, then rubbed her seat, then she stood up with a struggle, and she started to stagger, slowly and stiffly. Then, she walked to the door with a bumpy look. At this time, the security captain Lu Qiangjun came over and found that the princess was coming out by herself. Lu Qiangjun's fear could be seen from the video. She was so scared that she screamed, "The princess is running away! The zombie is cheating!"

Perhaps when he heard Lu Qiangjun talking, the princess turned around stiffly, frightening Lu Qiang to the point of silence. The princess turned around stiffly and walked towards the gate. As soon as the picture turned, the security guard at the gate was frightened and screamed. At this time, the gate slowly opened and the princess walked out directly.

After reading it again, Lu Qiangjun's face turned pale, "I almost pissed at that time."

Gu Ye patted him sympathetically and took away the bad luck attached to him. "Normal people will be afraid of seeing this, you will behave very well."

The elder brother smiled embarrassedly, "Thank you for your encouragement by the master."

The old man asked Gu Ye: "Did she leave by herself? Is it really haunted?"

Gu Ye smiled and said, "You can't hurry to make a conclusion. I'll walk around the museum first and then tell you later."

"Okay, Xia Xiang is familiar with this place, let him take you around."

There were no ghost or death energy found in the entire museum. There were still several mummies in the museum, but these old antiques had been dead for many years and had nothing left. There was an exhibition hall with a portrait of a princess hanging on the wall. Xia Xiang explained: "It is said that it was a newly opened museum for the princess. Before there was time to exhibit, people were gone."

Gu Ye stood in front of the princess portrait, looked at the other person's portrait and sighed: "I am indeed pretty, no wonder so many people like her."

Xia Xiang laughed, "Why are you so gossipy? What matters now is not the princess's love history, but where did this princess go? Are you really going to find lovers?"

Gu Ye was amused, "Don't be amused, her lovers have been dead for many years and are all underground. Should she go to the tomb to find them? She may not even know where she is buried. Should she go to find their reincarnation? The vast sea of ​​people is absolutely impossible. I think this time it is not a ghost."

Gu Ye took out the evolutionary version of the ghost-catching talisman and burned it here. After burning the talisman, there was no reaction here, which means there was no ghost energy, and there was not even a hidden ghost energy. Gu Ye smiled and said, "It's not done by ghosts."

Xia Xiang had no choice but to go find my grandfather. If you don’t work, call the police and tell the police directly that she left by herself. It’s so weird that we can’t do anything about it.”

When Gu Ye went back and said that, the old man's face became solemn. It was okay if it was done by a ghost. If it was done by a human, it would mean that something was wrong in the museum.

Ding Xiaoxiao asked in confusion: "How could it be that it wasn't done by a ghost? What was it done? It was obviously she who walked out by herself."

Li Xuan couldn't help but speak, "Xiaoxiao, don't be so feudal and superstitious. We are just studying history and corpses, don't talk about these ghosts." He looked at Gu Ye with a little despised. The so-called master is the master of the folk, and he doesn't understand why the dean asked such a beardless little master to make trouble.

Ding Xiaoxiao was very stubborn, "But don't you think it's romantic when the princess is resurrected five hundred years later and you will look for a lover across five hundred years?"

Li Xuan twitched the corners of his mouth and opened his mouth, but he couldn't find a reason to refute.

Gu Ye almost laughed. This is a typical love-brained girl who wants to be romantic. He smiled and asked, "Have you heard of Xiangxi corpse-driver?"

Ding Xiaoxiao said excitedly: "I know, I have seen it on TV. The corpse-driver holds a bell in his hand. When he waves, the corpses behind him will follow him. They usually travel at night, rest during the day, and stay in special inns. It is said that they have seen them in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, but they have not seen them in recent years."

Li Xuan laughed coldly, "The corpse-driver was a foreign land in ancient times, and the corpse-driver could only transport the corpse back to his hometown. The spell of leaving with a bell has long been cracked by science."

Ding Xiaoxiao said admiringly: "It's so awesome."

Li Xuan straightened his back and said proudly: "This technique must be done by two people. It is usually a combination of a master and an apprentice. The master walks in front with a bell and the apprentice follows behind. For anti-corrosion and lightweight on the road, they will dismember the corpse. As long as the limbs and heads and heavier torso are thrown away, and replace them with light straw. Then, a bamboo pole is built on the armpits, and after putting on a large robe, it will not be seen. As long as the master and apprentice's steps are unified, the corpse will follow."

Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously: "Can't others see that the middle has been replaced? Can't the family of the corpse be investigated? How did they explain to the family of the deceased?"

Li Xuan talked happily, "Often after the body is sent back to our home, the corpse-driver will say not to look at it again, do not disturb the dead, and do not watch it up close, so as not to get the corpse up, and put it in a coffin on the spot. Moreover, even if the anti-corrosion is good, the person has been dead for more than ten days, or even a month younger, and the face may be rotten. The family members know that they are their own family members. Who would strip their clothes and take a closer look? Besides, people at that time were superstitious, and they believed whatever the corpse-driver said."

Everyone looked at Li Xuan with admiration and said in a very clear way.

Gu Ye nodded, "What he said is very scientific," he said with a smile: "However, there are some things that can only be trusted, but not nothing."

Li Xuan sneered disapprovingly and said nothing.

Xia Xiang saw that Li Xuan was a little hostile to Gu Ye, and then looked at Ding Xiaoxiao, whose eyes were always on Gu Ye, and couldn't help laughing. This was really a disaster.

Gu Ye didn't know where he offended Li Xuan. He spread his hands and said helplessly to the old man: "I have nothing to say anymore. Call the police, it's definitely man-made."

There was no choice but to call the police. The cultural relics were lost, and they still had a history of more than 500 years. The more scientific research-worthy cultural relics were directly brought by the criminal police team. When Mu Jingfei's people came, they couldn't laugh or cry when they saw Gu Ye. Xiao Wang liked to say and joke, and said with an exaggerated look: "Ah, consultant! Why are you there again?"

Gu Ye spread his hands helplessly, "I'm probably really a walking Conan. Wherever I go, either a dead person or a zombie."

The police asked about the situation at that time and made detailed records. Ding Xiaoxiao said again that the princess went to find her lover by herself. The girl was full of love, and the police were amused. When the other party finished speaking, Gu Ye asked in confusion: "Why would you rather believe that she went to find her lover than believe that there was a corpse-driver?"

Ding Xiaoxiao said seriously: "Because the corpse-driver steals the corpse and is not romantic enough."

"Okay, girl, you won." Gu Ye stretched out his thumb in admiration, turned his head and was pulled away by Xiao Wang.

"What's going on with the corpse-driver?"

Gu Ye said in a general way, "...Anyway, just like we use talismans, they have their own secret techniques in their sects, so that the corpse can listen to his command. Of course, they do not deny the scientific explanations that Li Xuan said. There are also those, but there are also those who are really capable."

Xiao Wang was sure again, "It's really human beings?"

Gu Ye nodded, "It must be made by humans. I don't know if he is a corpse-driver. I heard the sound of bells in the video, so I had such an idea to provide you with."

Since Gu Ye said that, Xiao Wang immediately reported to others and asked others to find other clues. He directly followed up the clue of the corpse-driver. He asked the people in the museum: "Is anyone from Xiangxi?"

Unexpectedly, there were two people from Xiangxi, who were fellow villagers. One of them had been working here for more than ten years, and the security captain Lu Qiangjun who saw the princess walk out. The other was a new temporary worker, who was scared to open the door at the gate. Because the princess was lost, Lu Qiangjun angrily fired him. The most coincidental thing was that this person was introduced by Lu Qiangjun.

Gu Ye's mouth twitched. The dismissed person was probably a corpse-driver. Wouldn't he hit the other party's mind if he drove him away?

Xiao Wang was helpless and asked him: "What did your fellow villager do before?"

Lu Qiangjun looked dirty, "To be honest, we are not familiar with each other. He just introduced him to his friend, saying that this person is my fellow villager and wants to find a job. When he was a newcomer, he had no job or place to live, so I asked him to work as a temporary worker here. Who knew that he was so unreliable, and he didn't keep the person and was let go."

Xiao Wang’s key record: “He let him go?”

"Yes, he just came, and I couldn't let him come in and stand guard, so I let him guard the gate. There were not many people coming at night. I did a good job at the beginning and was conscientious."

Xiao Wang frowned and asked, "You are not familiar with him and you still find a job for him?"

Lu Qiangjun is quite kind, "I am not familiar with each other, and they are all fellow villagers in the countryside. It is not easy to be in another place. If you can, please help me."

After asking this call, Xiao Wang was sure that no matter whether he was the legendary corpse craftsman or not, the security guard was suspected. After finding the registered ID number of the person in the museum, the police began to check where the other party was.

"I found out that this person is named Fuyongen. He went in and out of this hotel two hours ago."

This person didn't leave the capital and lived in a three-star hotel. Fortunately, you need to register with your ID card wherever you live. As soon as Xiao Wang received the notice, he immediately took someone to chase him. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at that place, the staff at the front desk told them: "I'm sorry, Fuyoneng went out half an hour ago."

Xiao Wang asked anxiously: "Do you know where he went?"

The staff said embarrassedly: "I only saw him calling a taxi. As for where he went, I don't know."

The police had to adjust the nearby surveillance camera to check the whereabouts of Fuyonggen. Before they could be found out, someone sent a message to inform them: "Just just found out that Fuyonggen booked a ticket back to Xiangxi in the morning. The temporary station tickets were to be returned to Xiangxi. They looked very anxious and the train left in half an hour."

Xiao Wang immediately took people to the train station to block people and reminded the train station staff to detain him and not let him go. If he was asked to run back to Xiangxi, they would have to work hard.

There was another traffic jam on the road, and finally waited for Xiao Wang and the others to arrive at the train station. The staff at the train station told Xiao Wang, "The car has already driven away, but this person has not gotten on the train."

Xiao Wang wanted to scold the street, "What the hell, are you walking around and having fun? He can't book a house, buy a ticket, and get on the bus, so why are he trying?"

The policeman running with Xiao Wang was also furious, "Why do you feel like he knows we're here to look for him?"

Xiao Wang thought about it and felt something was wrong. It would be better to ask Gu Yewen for this kind of fantasy and evil thing. When Gu Yewen heard Xiao Wang’s narration, he said helplessly: “Those who do this job usually count something. Maybe they know you are going to find him and go around with you.”

"What should I do? Who has time to play with him?"

"Don't worry, if it's really him, the body cannot pass the security check and he cannot leave, I'll calculate it for you." Gu Ye took out his dear divination, searched for someone to come out, and took the place, "Brother Xiao Wang, look at you, is there a bridge near you?"

Xiao Wang looked around and said in surprise: "Yes!"

"I will definitely wait for him if I go there and find a place with many people."
