"Shi Ren, open the door!

Shi Ren glanced at the sunset that was about to set, and it was rare for a visitor to come at this time.

Walking to the main entrance to unlock the iron lock, the first thing that caught my eye was two somewhat nervous catchers with knives, followed by several cart workers.

The cart was covered with a white cloth, and Shi Ren knew that it was full of corpses when he sniffed it.

"Chen Zhutou and Li Zhutou. ”

Shi Ren greeted the two of them familiarly, and then walked to a cart, and he pulled down the white cloth, revealing the face of a bloodless down-and-out scholar, with deep-set cheeks, eyes closed, and bruised skin exuding chill as if it had just been lifted out of an ice cellar.

It's so cool!

Shi Ren was startled, frowned slightly, and asked, "This is?"

Chen Zhutou on the side swallowed his saliva when he heard this, he looked away from the gloomy cemetery in front of him, turned his head and replied: "Don't mention it, it was found in the broken temple outside the county this morning, and no one claimed it after it was put in the yali for a day." ”

Li Zhutou on the side continued: "There are no external injuries, and it is not poisoning, the doctor in the yali said that he froze to death." ”

"Frozen to death?" Shi Ren almost laughed as he glanced at the top of his head in a strange way.

Dog days, it's a nonsense to say that you are freezing to death!

And it's ugly, not to mention that there is an ice cellar within a radius of 100 miles, the coolest place is probably in his cemetery, right?

He walked over to the other carts and lifted the white cloth, but the rest of the corpses had no vision.

Li Zhutou saw that Shi Ren didn't believe it, but he didn't explain, he just shrugged his shoulders and continued: "According to the rules, the surrounding counties should be notified to send people to recognize people, but in a special period, just the search and arrest of the Heaven and Earth Society has already tossed us enough, and this kind of strange thing naturally has no energy to do. If I don't send it to you, I'm afraid it's going to stink. ”

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance at the scholar's corpse a few times, and he really hadn't encountered such a strange thing in the past few years.

Shi Ren nodded, he never asked for information about the deceased, just buried the corpse, and it had nothing to do with him before his death.

After the last time the county town raided the cemetery, he reached an agreement with the yamen of Lingxia County, and he was responsible for the voluntary burial of those unclaimed corpses.

In this era, the poor were generally buried on a piece of wasteland, and those who could really buy a cemetery were large families, and ordinary people were in awe of ghosts and gods, and they were somewhat resistant to mass graves.

Almost no one in the southern village came to Shi Ren's burial cemetery for funerals, and in their opinion, it was not normal to bury so many people together.

But for the county order of Lingxia County, it is different, in recent years, whether it is the plague or the war, there are far more dead than alive, and there is a lack of public cemeteries in various places, so he does not have so much money to bury the dead.

At this time, Shi Ren, who was in charge of the burial for free, suddenly jumped out, which relieved him of a lot of pressure on the county government.

For Shi Ren, this undoubtedly saves him the effort of leaving the cemetery to drag the corpse, and more importantly, it reduces the danger of him encountering robbers, which is equivalent to making money while sitting at home.

"Do you want to expand this cemetery to the north?" Li Zhutou glanced at the cemetery and casually handed the yamen's note to Shi Ren.

"Well, construction should start tomorrow. Shi Ren glanced at the corpse behind him.

led a few laborers to drag the corpse in, and heard the uncle at the front suddenly speak: "Little brother, are you doing this to make money?"

"I don't charge money in this public cemetery. Shi Ren didn't look back, but a few laborers looked at the dense tombstones in the cemetery and were a little flustered, but he could also understand that although it was not as infiltrating as the Troubled Wind Gang, the tombstones in the cemetery would give people an inexplicable sense of oppression.

The uncle looked around and was a little surprised: "You are so clean here, and you don't charge money, what are you trying to do?"

"It was not easy for everyone to live in life, and if they die, they have to get a stable place. Shi Ren replied with a smile, and saw that several young laborers had put down their bodies in fear and ran out of the cemetery.

Shi Ren smiled and looked at the two catchers: "You two go into the house and drink a glass of water?"

"No, no, no!"

The two of them shook their heads in unison, although they did sweat a little from the county seat here under the sun, but they didn't want to get yin qi here for a moment, and they were determined to go back to their lives as soon as possible.

Sending away a group of people in the county seat, Shi Ren picked up the body and put it in the coffin, and began to bury the body as concocted.

[The corpse is successfully buried and 80 Yin Spirits are obtained]

[The corpse is successfully buried, and 100 Yin Spirits are obtained]

[The corpse was successfully buried, and 70 Yin Spirits were obtained]

......

An hour passed, and only the scholar's body remained in the cemetery.

Shi Ren saw that the tomb dug in advance was no longer enough, so he was about to take a shovel and dig another one, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the scholar's face.

He had seen a lot of dead people, but it was the first time he had seen such a cold sign as a scholar.

This big summer is as cool as a Xiaoice box in front of you!

And recalling what he said before leaving, it was a bit evil.

Dog days frozen to death?

Shi Ren touched the back of his neck, as if a gust of wind had blown from a moment ago.

He cashed out the stele and coffin again, and saw the sun set in the distance.

Night is coming.

Shiren lit the oil lamp and walked towards the wooden house where the shovels were stacked.
