Chapter 168: Master Bai, the corpse collector

It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Now that the family of the female corpse has been found, there is no need to bother thinking about the portrait.

The old man in the brocade robe cried sadly, and the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, what a broken liver and intestines.

Li Mo waited silently for a while, and saw that the old man in the brocade robe was crying and had no strength, so he asked, "Are you?" ”

The old man in the brocade robe wiped his tears and responded with grief, "Xiao Lao'er was originally a tea farmer in the countryside, and for his livelihood, he opened a tea shop in the northwest corner of Qiantang County. It was none other than my youngest daughter, named Green Bead, who died. ”

"Have you ever had a grudge against anyone on weekdays?" Li Mo asked.

The old man in the brocade robe shook his head, "The little old man and his humble wife are both humble and generous, and they have never had a grudge against anyone. My little daughter has been fostered in the countryside since she was a child, and it is impossible to grudge with people just a few days after she came to the county seat. ”

This is strange, a country woman who has just come to the county for a few days, she is afraid that she will not dare to go out more, how can she suddenly throw herself into the river covered with scars?

"When did she go out today? Did you say anything before leaving? Li asked carefully.

The old man in the brocade robe was very displeased, "Now that the little girl's bones are not cold, what is the reason why you are here to ask questions about the east and west?" ”

"It's okay, he's the new head catcher of the county magistrate." Someone in the crowd said a fair word for Li Mo.

"Yes, this is the son of the former head catcher, who was ordered to supervise your daughter's case. Ask you anything, and you answer truthfully. ”

Among them, there was a person who recognized the tea merchant, and said regretfully, "The old man is looking for the bitter master, and he didn't think that it was love, and the matter has come to this, please mourn and change." ”

Only then did the old man in the brocade robe understand that the plain-clothed man opposite was actually a yacha, so he replied truthfully, "The little girl left home in the afternoon, saying that she was going to buy beaded flowers to wear." Xiao Lao'er had just gone to deliver the goods, and when he heard that a woman's corpse had been fished out of the river, he turned around to take a look. I can't imagine that the one who was scooped up would be, it would be..."

As he spoke, the old man in the brocade robe hid his face and wept, unable to speak any longer.

This is strange, the deceased has just been picked up, and he should not be very familiar with the surrounding environment, why did he suddenly want to buy beads to wear?

Li Mo couldn't figure it out, since he had found the bitter master, it would be better to go to his house to take a look. "Uncle, please mourn, I'll help you move Ling Ai's body back first."

After speaking, he greeted the Zhuo brothers on the side, "Zhuo Wen, Zhuo Wu, how about we help my husband send his daughter home first?" ”

Before the Zhuo brothers could answer, Li Mo received a slap on the head.

"We have someone here who is in charge of white affairs, please come, where do you need to carry it personally?" After Li Banjin finished speaking, he turned his head and instructed Zhuo Wen, "Zhuo Wen, you are tired of running and invite Master Bai, the corpse collector." ”

"Okay!" Zhuo Wen happily responded and left, and ran away in a blink of an eye.

Although he was beaten, Li Mo didn't care at all, and all his attention was attracted by Master Bai's three words.

My mother, I won't meet Bai Suzhen again by coincidence, right?

Li Mo's heart pounded, and he leaned towards Li Banjin and said, "Dad, this Master Bai shouldn't be a woman, right?" ”

Li Banjin glanced at Li Mo, "Nonsense again, Master Bai is a dignified seven-foot man, how can he be a female Jiao'e." ”

Fortunately, it wasn't, Li Mo suddenly put his heart into his stomach.

Hehe, although he is now sure that he is Li Gongfu, he really doesn't want to have a snake demon brother and sister.

It's man-made, as long as he stays away from the Xu brothers and sisters, don't say that Xu Xian wants a snake in the future, that is, he wants a day of cattle and turtles, and it has nothing to do with him at all!

Only after the tea time, Zhuo Wen hurried back, "It's coming, Master Bai is here." ”

When Li Mo heard this, he saw Zhuo Wen followed by a tall old man with a red face, dressed in white clothes and white pants, and even his shoes were white.

The old man was dressed in coarse linen clothes, with a square mouth and a wide nose, gray hair, and his appearance was very righteous Ling Ran. He walked vigorously, pushing a strange wheelbarrow covered with a somewhat worn white cloth.

The two of them approached, but before they could stand firmly, Li Banjin had already greeted them, "Master Bai, you're tired." ”

The old man was Master Bai in Li Banjin's mouth, and he smiled honestly, "It's okay, but it's better not to come to me, and the world will be too peaceful." ”

As he spoke, Master Bai nodded at Li Mo and said, "Yo, when did the father-in-law come back?" ”

"Ah, oh, just came back." Li Mo was stunned, but he didn't expect this corpse collector to recognize him.

Master Bai seemed to be surprised by Li Mo's answer, looked at Li Mo seriously for a while, and looked at Li Banjin inquiringly, "He? ”

Li Banjin patted Master Bai on the shoulder, "He had a serious illness before and forgot a lot of things. Let's not mention this first, na, a woman fell into the water and died today, and I have to trouble you to take it back. ”

"Well, I'll see." As he spoke, Master Bai walked towards the place where the female corpse was lying down, and stretched out his hand to pat the tea merchant who was crying bitterly for his beloved daughter, "The deceased rest in peace, and the living are like this; Let's mourn and change. ”

The tea merchant looked up at Master Bai's dress, and knew that he was a corpse collector, so he sobbed and stood up, "Master Lao, please be careful." ”

Master Bai nodded, "It's a matter of course, it should be like this." ”

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to cover the eyelids of the female corpse, and his wrinkled hand grabbed it in the air, and then sprinkled it on the female corpse, chanting words in his mouth, "Life and death are fate, don't be annoyed and don't complain; The soul is frightened, and the return is fast. ”

The profession of corpse collector, Li Mo has heard of it for the first time.

He originally thought that the corpses collected in ancient times were all yacha, and there were people who specialized in this.

Look at this gray-haired corpse collector god chattering, like a dancing god. I don't know if it's to establish my prestige by pretending to be false, or if I really have the idea of gathering my soul.

However, since youkai can walk sideways all over the streets, there must be a soul as well!

Master Bai, the corpse collector, squirmed rapidly on his lips, whispering something.

Li Mo only saw his mouth moving, but he couldn't hear what he was reading.

The onlookers stared at him without blinking, and they didn't dare to make a sound.

Soon, Master Bai stopped his voice, pushed the wheelbarrow to the female corpse, and lifted the white cloth that covered the body.

The white cloth, though somewhat worn, was spotless. There is no wind at the moment, but it is hunting and dancing, like a banner waving.

The wheelbarrow had six raised stakes, which were smooth and varnished.

Li Mozheng wondered what these six wooden stakes were for, and saw Master Bai erect the wheelbarrow next to the female corpse's feet.

I don't know what trick Master Bai used, but he lifted the female corpse alone.

You know, death is sinking, and the dead are the heaviest. This Master Bai is really amazing!

When the female corpse stood up, Li Mo instantly understood the role of the six wooden stakes.

I saw that the corpse had one on the left and right of the neck, one under the armpits, and one on the hips, a total of six wooden stakes, which fixed the corpse firmly.
