I'm not talking about raising monsters

Chapter 77

Chen Er was ugly, strong, and unusually tall, with a pockmarked face.Normally, when walking on the road, no one would want to look at him more, which is especially in line with the requirements of the corpse exorcist profession.

The exorcism of corpses is prevalent in the Xiangjiang area. It was originally intended to allow people who died in battle or because of various reasons such as going out to work, to return to their hometowns, return their fallen leaves to their roots, and be safe in the soil.

But there are good and bad practitioners in this industry, and some mages are really capable.Use cinnabar symbols to block the top of the head, the soles of the feet, the palms of the hands, and the seven orifices of the corpse, and temporarily seal part of the three souls and seven souls in the body.

The corpse will be able to follow the mantra and the sound of the bell, all the way back to the hometown.

But such capable exorcists only accounted for a part, and the other part was a trick.

Chen Er belongs to this wave of unscrupulous corpse chasers.

Their entry rule is that the person must be extremely strong, ugly, and courageous.

The reason why they wanted to come up with such a requirement for accepting apprentices was because they didn't know any spells at all.Instead, divide the client's body into several pieces.Small parts such as the arms and head are carried in the basket on the back.

And the large corpses that could not be put into the basket were tied to their bodies and carried on their backs.

Then another apprentice put on a black robe and dressed up as a corpse.Follow behind the corpse chaser.

From outsiders, it seems that the master has boundless magic power and drives the corpse forward, but the reality is that one person walks forward with the corpse on his back, and the other pretends to be the corpse behind.

Division of labor and cooperation, full of tacit understanding.

Of course, sometimes accidents happen, and they also have their own solutions when they need to transport two or three corpses at the same time.

Two cooperating exorcists will use bamboo poles to support the armpits of two or three corpses, and fix the corpses on the bamboo poles.Then, one forward, one behind, the two exorcists carried the bamboo poles away.

Seen from a distance, the corpse jumped up and down following the ups and downs of the bamboo pole.Due to the flexibility of bamboo, people will shake to a certain extent when walking.Seen from a distance, the corpse jumped up and down in the air, as if it had come to life.

And that's where the legend of the earliest zombies comes from.

But in fact, what these corpse hunters do is the physical work of moving corpses. Naturally, they must be strong and courageous to be competent for this job.

As for being ugly, it is probably not easy to attract the attention of others, so it is easy to hide these small organs.

Seeing Chen Er's identity, Tang Jiujiu had already figured out the whole process of his murder and fraud without looking down.

He finally figured out the strangest part of the case, where did the goddess who fell from the sky in the closed room come from?

How did Chen Er get so much wealth without anyone knowing it?

Only then, under greed, commit countless unforgivable crimes again and again.

When he was driving corpses before, he naturally knew how to tie a human body to his body and keep moving freely without being noticed by others.

After being dead for a day or two, he would be able to climb mountains and mountains with his already stiff body tied to his body, let alone a petite woman?

He carries all kinds of narcotic drugs with him all the year round.These women who have been fascinated by him can be easily tied to him by him in a state of unconsciousness.

A woman like Yangzhou Shouma is only about 1 meters tall, and her body is extremely thin.Coupled with his inability to resist, Chen Er could easily tie the woman to his back or chest.Wear loose clothing outside as a touch-up.

He is unusually tall, and the Taoist robe is elegant and spacious, making it even more seamless.

Those dignitaries, after spending a lot of money, saw a well-prepared live magic show.

All they saw was an unusually fat Taoist priest.The Taoist priest entered the room where he had prepared candles for the bridal chamber by himself, and then danced to the gods after a meal, burning incense and praying.

After the people left and waited outside the house, Chen Er then untied the woman from his body.The woman was in a daze and didn't understand anything. Whatever Chen Er said, they would do as they wanted.

After the woman puts on the clothes that she has confusedly put on, Chen Er will use his skill of mortician to paint the woman with exquisite makeup.Put on the cast agate earrings, put on the filigree southern Xiuyu nail buckle on the creamy and slender hands, and hang a sachet embroidered with white cranes spreading their wings.

When everything was ready, Chen Er went out and told the client that the goddess had been recruited.But we can only get together for one night, time flies, and you are as expensive as gold, let's do it, and cherish it.

Tang Jiujiu continued to flip through the paper in his hand, and sure enough, there was nothing wrong with it as he thought.

It's just that these women are so beautiful, how could none of the customers notice something was wrong.Or have you seen these women before?After all, some of them were once extremely popular oirans.

Tang Jiujiu continued to check the interrogation records carefully, and he found the answer not long after.

"Sinister... This person is extremely stern and thoughtful, no wonder he has committed so many crimes and no one knows about it."

"What?" You Guang asked while holding hot tea.

"Look at this, Chen Er has already thought of it. Even if he said that the light is too bright to scare the heavenly beings, after all, there are people who are curious and want to observe the beauty of the heavenly girl under the candlelight."

"The women he killed were all extremely beautiful women, and he was also afraid that people would recognize the true identities of these women."

"That's why he chose to kidnap a woman in the south of the Yangtze River and take her to the north to cheat. In this era, information and transportation are inconvenient. Even if this woman was famous all over the south of the Yangtze River, who would know who she is in the capital?"

"Leave from the capital again, kidnap northern women and transport them to Jinling and other places along the way, and continue to engage in his recruitment of heavenly women."

"Relying on his old profession, he really played well."

Tang Jiujiu and You Guang stayed up all night, sitting under the candlelight, flipping through the pages of the confession letter sent to them by the ghost sent by the bull-headed horse-faced ghost.

He never thought that there would be so many, when the rooster crowed at dawn, there were at least thirty or forty victims in the stack of certificates in his hand.

Moreover, each woman is buried in a different place, both in the north and the south, covering five or six provinces...

"Ugh……"

"Why are you sighing?" You Guang asked puzzled. "Isn't the matter resolved? When the sky is bright, you should rest at home. I'll go and rescue the kidnapped woman."

"I finally solved this hot potato, shouldn't I be happy? Then why are you still sighing?"

Tang Jiujiu pressed his temple helplessly, staring at something for too long, his mind was buzzing.

"You don't know, just with these files in our hands, Chen Er, a bastard, can immediately sentence a Ling Chi to death. There is no need to wait for Qiu Hou to ask him to be executed. Jiao Shang can directly kill him."

"But he is involved in too many and complicated cases. If you want to find out, you must take him to the burial site to identify them on the spot, dig out the bones of the women one by one, and then try the case clearly."

"One by one, several provinces in the north and south ran down, not to mention travel expenses, it would take several years to turn this case into an iron case and close it smoothly."

"I thought that such a villain could die quickly. I sent him down to accompany those sisters and sisters. I didn't expect that because of his numerous crimes and countless crimes, he would be allowed to live in this world for many years."

"It takes a long time to go back and forth on the road."

You Guang poured a cup of hot tea for Tang Jiujiu, and said with a smile, "What's the big deal for me? You're usually smart, why are you so pedantic now?"

"If ordinary people go there by carriage or on foot, it will naturally take several months to go back and forth. It will take two or three years to travel all over these five or six provinces."

"But isn't it me?"

"It's only a short while before I go to these places. I'll take you with me, and let Xiaolan carry the hoe and equipment and the coffin. He is strong and strong, with a fat body and a round waist."

"You take the prisoner to identify the corpse. Xiaolan is in charge of carrying the coffin. With one hand, even the burial of the corpse will be solved."

"This... I'm afraid that these women have already turned into dry bones, so there's no need for Xiaolan to carry the coffin over there." Tang Jiujiu really didn't expect that even at this time, You Guang would not forget to wear Xiaolan's shoes.It is necessary to let the little mermaid carry the vermilion coffin on the road.

"No, no, no, I still have to show respect. It's too careless to take a jar or something."

"Didn't Xiaolan like Jiao Shang so much? Just take advantage of this opportunity to make a name for yourself and make great achievements. Maybe when Jiao Shang is happy, you can find him a job in the yamen, as a yamen servant or something." .Working together every day is more conducive to bonding.”

"You, the master, don't think about big things for Xiaolan. What's the point of wasting your energy? Without this sacrifice, how could Xiaolan take down Jiao Shang's stubborn old man."

"You have to think about Xiaolan. She is already a four-meter-long mermaid. If she can't get married again, and if she grows up, will anyone dare to want him?"

"Think about how big the blue whale is, and how big is the kunpeng? When Xiaolan grows to that size, it will be difficult to find a partner! Isn't it just carrying a coffin? You can't bear it."

"A yamen servant can be regarded as a serious job, isn't it better than him staying at home every day?"

Although Tang Jiujiu felt that You Guang's words were fallacies, but when he thought about Xiaolan's growth to more than ten or 20 meters, he would not be able to get married.

Too much to eat...a body size of 20 meters...can't eating be counted by tons?

Let's make plans early while he is still small... Tang Jiujiu had no choice but to agree to You Guang's plan.

When the most important confession was delivered at dawn, the kidnapped woman finally found her whereabouts.

Jiao Shang was happy to report the good news early in the morning.I don't know why Chen Er, such a stubborn criminal, was suddenly enlightened, changed his mind, and confessed cleanly and thoroughly.

Looking at the tall stack of interrogation records on Tang Jiujiu's desk, plus the confession.He really didn't know that a few clerks could write so many things in just one night.

And...why does Tang Jiujiu's house smell strongly of burning paper...

Anyway, the case is solved, we dare not say, we dare not ask.

As the saying goes, one thing more is worse than one thing less, it is better to turn a blind eye, close one eye, just pretend that you don't know anything.

But when the woman was rescued and sent to the hospital for a physical examination according to the routine, everyone was dumbfounded.

"When were you kidnapped?"

"Excuse me, sir, what age is it now? I was locked in a basement where the sun never came out, and I don't know how long it has been, little girl." The woman answered with a sob.

"Now it's late autumn, and the Chongyang Climbing Festival has passed."

"According to this calculation, then... the woman has been tied up for almost two months. I remember that I passed out at the temple fair on the fifteenth day, and the weather was still hot at that time."

Dr. Yuan walked out of the consultation room with a serious face, coughing. "My lord, Jiujiu, that woman is pregnant..."
