Chapter 182: A dying man at a mass grave
Ji Youyi returned to the inn, packed up her things directly and checked out and left without delay.
People like Song Lian may be afraid that they won't do anything to her on the surface, but it's hard to guarantee that they won't do anything to her secretly. Naturally, she couldn't stay here just to be on the safe side.
When he opened his mouth to say Ruyi Inn, he was just deliberately attracting Song Lian's attention, so that he could find the right place to arrest people and not run around.
Now she left the inn and asked someone for the address of Wang Cheng's writer.
Although Wang Chengzuo and Zhou Chengzuo are peers, the two have a good relationship, and occasionally they will make an appointment to go to drink tea together when they are fine.
When Ji Youyi stepped forward to find someone, Wang Yanzuo was cooking at home.
"Master Wang, I was introduced by Master Zhou Jiang, and I want to ask you to go to the mass grave in Xishan together."
"Why didn't Zhou Yanzuo take you there?" Wang asked strangely.
"I was able to take me there on Friday, but the yamen temporarily found him, so I came to you." Ji Youyi said and took out forty pieces of silver, "You accept these silvers, it is a little bit of my heart." ”
After receiving the money, Wang Cheng was also happy to do things, so he cleaned up on the spot and set off with Ji Youyi.
There is a mountain in the west of the city, there is a very long ravine on the mountain, there was once a group of mountain bandits who took advantage of the geographical location that the ravine was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and occupied the mountain as the king.
The imperial court tried to recover it several times, but there was no way, and the scale of the mountain bandits became larger and larger, and they did everything to kill people and set fires.
Xu did too many things that hurt nature and reason, which led to the anger of people and gods. Actually one night, thunder fell, one night later, the cottage was razed to the ground, no one in the village was spared, all died under the thunder.
Later, this matter was reported to the imperial court, and the county order brought the Taoist priest to investigate, and the Taoist priest pinched his fingers and pointed out that the grievances in this place were too unsuitable for people, and the mountain should be closed.
As soon as the county commander's brain was hot, he thought that since it was a wasteland, it would be better to make a mass grave and throw the corpses that had not been claimed for many years, as well as the beheaded death row prisoners, to this place.
Slowly, it became a mass grave.
Xishan is not far from the city, and the two of them didn't even hire a car, so they almost arrived in half an hour before they woke up.
Wang Qizuo led the people to the foot of the West Mountain and pointed to the road up the mountain, "If you go this way, it will be a mass grave when you walk in, and I will not follow you in later." ”
"Thank you, master."
After Ji Youyi thanked her, she parted ways with Wang Cheng and walked into the mountains by herself.
Although she didn't believe in any ghosts, she did feel the wind swishing when she walked into the mountain, and it was the height of summer, which should have been a hot noon, but it still made people feel cold.
She wasn't afraid of corpses or anything, but the smell around her was really unbearable.
She first searched along the side of the road, but found nothing at all, smelling layers of corpse stench, she couldn't help but take out a homemade mask to temporarily block it for a while.
Although this smell is not something that can be resisted by a simple mask, it is better than nothing.
The outer ring really didn't find it, and then it had to go deeper.
She looked at the cecal trail, hesitated for a moment, and stepped inside.
At the beginning, it was still the kind of intact corpse that appeared, and I thought that the person who threw the corpse was lazy, so he threw it more and more outside.
The further you go inside, the more you can roughly tell when the body was thrown according to the degree of decomposition. Some were dressed in prison uniforms, and some were bodies that had been buried naturally for a long time and had not been picked up, which could be identified from the clothes.
Anyway, this part of the road is really the most disgusting.
Because most of these corpses have begun to decompose, but they are not completely decomposed, and they can be seen, but they are connected by flesh and skin.
The rotting corpse fluid stained the surrounding dirt with a strange color, neither black nor yellow.
Ji Youyi's feet stepped on it, softly, as if she was stepping on cotton, and there was no feeling of solidity under her feet.
Only then did he think about it, and he stepped down and suddenly fell into the ground.
The gray-brown liquid stained her feet, and she shook her ankles in disgust, her brows squeezed into a Chuanzi shape.
Looking up, there was still a long way to go, and she was really in trouble.
She sighed deeply and took something out of the medicine box and sprinkled it on the top of her feet, just in case, the measures still had to be done.
At this moment, there was a strange sound in the forest, like a snort.
Ji Youyi was nervous, and half a bag of powder was sprinkled on her shoes.
"Tsk."
Suddenly, the mood was even more unbeautiful.
What's going on?
She put her things away, put the medicine box on her back, and walked cautiously towards the sound.
Strangely, several corpses here are fresh.
She put on her homemade sheep intestine gloves and turned over the corpse, and found that although they were all wearing guard clothes, judging from the sewing and simple patterns of the clothes, they were not something that ordinary people could use.
The guards of the big families died here?
This is unusual.
At this moment, a faint humming voice appeared again.
Ji Youyi moved slowly, and after going around a big rock, she saw a man who seemed to be alive.
Looking at the line, the man is definitely either rich or expensive, although he is covered in blood and can't see his face clearly, but judging by the shape and bone outline of his body, the length will not be too bad.
This person and the enemy who may be the group of guards, both are defeated, one is completely destroyed, the other is half dead, it seems that if there is no one to save them, in this barren mountains and mountains, they will definitely not survive.
Ji Youyi really wanted to put oil on the soles of her feet and leave immediately, after all, these people were definitely dangerous to her, she was old and young, and she really couldn't get involved in such a right and wrong.
But when she turned around, she stopped.
The man leaned against the tree, and Ji Youyi vaguely saw that what he wanted was behind the man, pressed by him.
This is a drama, God wants her to save people?
Ji Youyi quietly stepped forward and probed the man's snort, and he was indeed angry.
A knife in the chest, torn clothes, and deep bones in the wound on the shoulder, which is by no means something ordinary people can do.
"Big brother, I can't do anything about your injury, die early and live early, don't struggle."
Ji Youyi muttered to himself, regardless of whether he heard it or not, he pushed the person, moved a little position, and sure enough, he saw the herb he needed.
She carefully dug out the herb, this herb must be connected to the effect, in order to maintain the medicinal properties, she also specially brought a jade box.
Digging out the herbs and putting them in the box, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and now, Guo Wenhan was saved.
The next question is what to do with this man?
She looked through it carefully, and saw that the injuries on the man's body were new and old, and guessed that the man should have been attacked many times, but the most seriously injured.
This kind of man with a mysterious identity and constantly being hunted down will never stop until his enemies find his body.
She had just tried it, and with her own strength, it was impossible to bring people out of this mountain.
No matter how you look at it, this is a dead end, she doesn't want to get into trouble, so she only hesitates for a while, then gets up and prepares to leave.
As soon as he took a step, he felt something tugging on the corner of his skirt.
