Chapter 1: Corpses

Next Chapter

In the winter of the fifth year of Taijia, it was rainy in Guan County. On the night of the 22nd, it was not until the faint appearance of the last quarter moon that the rain gradually stopped. The water of the moat under the moon flows quietly, glowing softly, as if it were no different from yesterday.

The Shu people live a leisurely life, few people are willing to get up early in the cold weather, and even the shops that do breakfast business have not yet opened.

Zhang Gui has been a husband for three years, and he starts yawning every time he reaches this point. It's going to be five shifts soon, and if you knock it again today, he can rest. He carried the gavel in his arms, rested the hammer on his shoulder, put his hand into his sleeve, and walked slowly with broken steps, thinking about where to eat for a while.

The porridge of Li Ji on East Street is fragrant and thick, but it is far away; The steamed bun shop on West Street is good, but it's a pity that people are too lazy, and they don't get up until he knocks on the fifth watch, and the breakfast shop is lazy like this, and it will close sooner or later!

He thought as he walked, but he didn't pay attention to stepping into a mud pit, his foot slipped, and the person planted forward, and fell directly into a dog □□. Zhang Gui got up with his hands on the ground, his eyes fell to the surface of the river unexpectedly, and his frightened face immediately turned white.

There was a corpse floating on the river!

The corpse was face down, its clothes were floating on the water, and it was impossible to see the men and women clearly, but the corpse had all hands and feet, and it was obviously humanoid!

Zhang Gui was shocked and immediately knocked on the hammer, "Dead man-"

……

Lu Li woke up sweating profusely and sat up suddenly.

He looked at his hands with a quick breath, touched his warm legs, and eagerly touched his face.

It's all hot, okay......

He let out a long breath, unleashed his strength, and leaned against the wall.

It's good that he's alive again.

A qiē is not a dream.

Lu Li was born with congenital heart disease, and it was not curable. His father is a policeman, his mother is a teacher, and his brother is a forensic doctor, and he is the youngest son of his mother in her forties, and the family is looking forward to his birth, but unfortunately with this good news comes a huge black hole.

His illness cast a shadow on the family, and the well-off family couldn't help the consumption of his illness, not to mention that he was poor all of a sudden, but the family needed to make a strict spending plan so that it would not overspend.

But Lu Li is very good and happy, and his family has given him endless warmth, and he has no regrets at all. Because of his severe illness, he could not go to school like a normal child, and was taken by his parents and brother in turn. Mom taught him the necessary things a student should know, Dad taught him how to catch the bad guys, brother ...... Don't teach him anything, just take him to see him dissect the corpse.

My brother's work is very busy, but it is very quiet, and it is very suitable for taking care of children, so Lu Li spends the most time with his brother. It's also strange that he was naturally bold, and he wasn't afraid when he saw his brother's dissection for the first time, and his brother breathed a sigh of relief, so he dared to take him to the dissection room, and glanced at him from time to time to ensure that he was in sight.

Lu Li stumbled and grew to the age of twenty-three, and his health became worse and worse. The last time I followed my brother to conduct an autopsy in the field, I accidentally met the criminals and returned to the scene, and there was a shootout, and my brother's position was very dangerous, and a person quietly felt out a wild bullet and threw it at my brother......

He pounced without thinking.

The family has done enough for him. According to the results of the examination half a month ago, the doctor and his parents said that he would only live for another half a year at most. The family thought he didn't know, but he heard it.

I'm going to die anyway, and if I can protect my brother once, it's worth it......

Who knew he would be able to wake up, and he would be in this room as soon as he woke up!

Lu Li looked around the room with a complicated expression.

Next to the door, against the east wall, there is a table of eight immortals, with three benches, and on the table is a pair of coarse porcelain tea sets with blue lines on a white background. Facing the bed, there is a window on the south side, square, about a meter long and wide, and the window is a very classical diamond-shaped staggered geometric pattern, on which is pasted with light yellow window paper, which makes a sound when the wind blows. Under the window there was a dark brown four-legged strip with some miscellaneous items. On the west side of the wall stood a quadrangular cabinet, which was so old that it had cracks on all four feet.

It's a very modest room.

This is an ancient, unpretentious room.

Lu Li sighed, he was still a poor man. Yesterday he suddenly woke up in this room, he was frightened, his mind was uncertain, he thought it was sleepwalking, and if he continued to wake up in this room today, he vaguely knew that he probably ...... There's no going back.

The power of the wild bomb is not as good as that of a regular bomb, but it will not be weaker than anything, and his body ...... It must not be complete.

The word 'death' has been following him since he was born, and his parents and brothers knew that there would be such a day. They will be sad, they will be sad, but as time passes, one day the scars will fade.

They have always hoped that he can have a healthy body and live well, and now this dream has come true.

Himself...... I also want to live well.

I think about it all the time!

But his new identity doesn't seem to be doing well.

Lu Li frowned slightly.

Suddenly changed his body, he was scared, and there was only a limit to what he could notice. He didn't know how the predecessor of this body died, and he vaguely got some memories, but when he woke up, those memories that didn't belong to him were even more floating, and the information he got was very limited.

He knew that the original body was also called Lu Li, and he was an out-and-out nerd.

As long as he has a scroll in his hand, he can never go out.

Pity...... His aunt didn't like him to read.

This Lu Li is an orphan, his parents were killed by bandits when he was five years old, and he was sent to his aunt Feng to raise, Feng was very concerned about him at first, because he had a great fiancé.

His fiancé used to be the son of King Ping, and King Lao Ping inherited the title after he went, and now he is an out-and-out powerful prince. I heard that he is nine feet long, with a green face and fangs, cruel and cold-blooded, slaughtering 80,000 people with his hands, and can stop children crying at night, and he is a very powerful character.

I also want to know what a bright future will be for such a big man.

It's a pity that this fiancé hasn't come to see him once in ten years.

Feng gradually faded to him.

Lu Li guessed that the Feng family just treated him slowly and did not kick him out of the house, probably because of the New Year's gift sent by the Ping Wangfu every year.

I don't know what kind of wind Pingwangfu smokes, this fiancé has never been here once, but the ceremony twice a year is very punctual, and it has not been broken once in ten years.

Thinking about it, Lu Li began to have a headache.

No matter how deep he looked, he couldn't find any useful memories, he thought...... Let's go with the flow.

The sky was just bright, the cold air was bone-chilling, there was no charcoal basin in the room, and Lu Li wrapped himself in a quilt. What he needs to think about most is how to live in the future.

……

The door creaked, and someone came in.

Lu Li looked up and saw that she was a grandmother in her forties.

This person came yesterday, Lu Li knew him, and it was Wang's mother.

Wang's mother is a little short, slightly plump, and the back of her head is meticulously combed in a round bun, pinned with a copper hairpin. I don't know if it's because I don't like to laugh, the nasolabial folds are very deep, and I look very fierce.

Mother Wang came in with a bowl of medicine, and put the medicine on the table directly after entering the door, her voice was cold and hard, "Young master drink while it's hot, and the slave will come to collect the bowl in a while." After speaking, he didn't even glance at Lu Li, and lifted the curtain and went out.

Lu Li was stunned again.

Yesterday this woman was like that.

In ancient times, people signed the deed and bought and sold, shouldn't they be respectful to their masters? She is so sloppy that she is not afraid of his rectification...... Yes, she is a descendant of the Liu family, not a descendant of his Lu Li.

Lu Li's eyes flashed, and he sighed silently.

This is the ancient Da'an Dynasty, which does not exist in history, not the modern era where he has lived for so many years.

He is poor, sheltered, helpless, and may be controlled by others.

Before he stepped out of the door to see this strange world, Lu Li already had a deep sense of frustration, could he really live a good life here?

This Wang's mother remembered to come to bring him medicine but didn't send him food...... The word slave bully, Lu Li said that he deeply understood.

He doesn't remember what disease he had in his previous body, but he has been sick all his life, and he has a good body in this life, he never wants to be sick again, medicine is always a cure...... He got up from his bed and went down to the ground to find clothes to wear.

There are clothes in the corner cabinets, as well as books that were secretly hidden in the previous body. Lu Li moved his clothes bag and saw a book pressed underneath, very old, with the corners rolled, the writing was a little torn, and the pages were a little scattered. He carefully reached out and pulled it out, and it was a post-mortem list that was integrated into a booklet.

Autopsy...... The book?

Lu Li rubbed his forehead and tried to recall, Feng didn't like him to read, this book ...... Seems to have borrowed it from the house next door?

The room was a little dark, Lu Li put the book on the table, pushed open the window, and finally let in some light.

Anyway, there is no charcoal basin in the house, and there is a temperature inside and outside.

He tightened his clothes, flipped through the book with one hand, and reached for the medicine bowl with the other, and before he could sit down, he suddenly saw a noise outside. He turned his head to look and noticed that the large stone in the corner of the courtyard wall had suddenly moved.

Lu Li put down the book, rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had seen the flowers, but when he looked at it again, the stones moved even more!

Then, a small head crept out from behind the stone......

He was a teenager, eleven or twelve years old, very thin, with some dark skin and a pair of big eyes that were very clever. The young man's eyes rolled around, probably seeing no one, a big smile opened on the corner of his mouth, like a cannonball, and he ran towards the door!

Lu Li was stunned.

This man...... It looks familiar.

The young man was not polite at all, he didn't knock on the door at all, he pushed the door in directly, and his voice was full of excitement, "Brother Li!" A corpse has been found on the surface of the moat, let's go and see it together! ”。
