Chapter 1599 - Chapter 1606: Grievances Redressed (1)

Cadaveric spots refer to the purple-red blotches that appear on the lower parts of the skin after death. These typically begin to form about 2 to 4 hours postmortem and reach the spreading phase by 8 to 10 hours. The distribution of cadaveric spots is directly related to the position of the corpse. For a body lying flat on its back, the spots appear on the occipital region, the top of the head, the back, the waist, the sides of the buttocks, and the posterior of the limbs. In contrast, for a suspended corpse like Ying Chun's, the spots appear on the lower limbs, the lower abdomen, and the far end of the upper abdomen, mostly purple-red or dark purple-red in color.
