I opened the door to a lean middle-aged man, the man's face was bloodless, the dark circles were very heavy, and he looked like he hadn't rested for a long time, or he was sick.

After taking a look, the man looked Liu Cheng and me up and down, turned back to the room and sat on the chair, took out a cigarette and smoked it, and asked, "Who is sewing it for?" What parts are sewn? ”

The second tanners sew not only the head, other parts are also within the scope of their sewing, in the past sewing is a broken head, now many people believe that if people are incomplete to reincarnate, they will be incomplete after reincarnation, which is also the reason why the profession of the second tanners still exists.

Liu Cheng and I stepped in, and there were a lot of tailors' utensils and some cloth in the room, and after a few glances, Liu Chengcai said, "An ancient corpse that has been decapitated, her name is Su Daji." ”

As soon as he heard the name, the second leatherman immediately took out the cigarette in his mouth, and then stood up suddenly, looked at me and Liu Cheng with a frown, looked at each other a few times, he sat down again, shook his head and said, "Our profession is a dead man's business, but not all dead people's business is done, robbers, bandits, prisoners and bullies we can sew, but there is only one type of person we don't sew, that is the imperial relatives, so I can't take your business." ”

Even bandits and bullies can sew, why don't you sew the emperor's relatives, I asked curiously, "Why?" ”

The second leatherman glanced at me and smiled, "Throughout the ages, have you seen how many royal relatives have been beheaded and decapitated?" But all the relatives of the emperor who died like this are involved in the disputes of the world, whether it is in the sky or under the earth, there is a record, we are a small ****, and we can't afford to wade into this troubled water. ”

We only said the name, and he said that he would not sew it, and he didn't seem to know that Su Daji's body had been sewn by someone, and his heart said that Liu Cheng had made a mistake, there was more than one second leatherman in this city, and it was another one who sewed Su Daji's body.

Liu Cheng also smiled, "Su Da has three phoenix lives, blessed by heaven and earth, life does not return to the yang world, death does not return to the yin division, the person who kills her goes against the sky, there will be five thunderbolts, the person who saves her offends the power of heaven, must be riddled with diseases, you have three fires on top of the wind like a broken candle, almost extinguished, her body is sewn, right?" ”

The second cobbler was not shocked this time, but just raised his eyes to look at Liu Cheng lightly, "Outsider? ”

Yoo Seung-eun sighed.

The second leatherman said, "I sewed her body, and I know that sooner or later someone will come to the door, and if they want to kill her, they will listen to the venerable." ”

Liu Cheng said, "We are not here to settle accounts, there are some things to ask you about her." ”

"We only sew the corpses of the living, not for the dead, we don't ask anything about the dead, so don't open your mouth, I don't know if you ask, if you don't come to me to settle accounts, then please go back." The second cobbler stood up and directly ordered the eviction.

We finally came, how could we leave so easily, Liu Cheng simply found a chair and sat down, stared at the second leatherman and asked, "Then I don't ask about the dead, I ask about the living, there are two questions I need you to tell me, first, the people who are looking for you to sew Su Daji's corpse, their purpose; Second, with your eyes, it should be easy to tell that the corpse is unusual, why do you want to sew her corpse for the sake of not following the rules? ”

The second leatherman glanced at Liu Cheng and replied unintentionally, "Since you are not the one I came to settle accounts with, why should I tell you?" I am a craftsman and a businessman, and I don't ask customers why they sew corpses, and they only sew corpses to make money. ”

He just prevaricated with these two sentences, and he didn't answer Liu Cheng's question at all, Liu Cheng was also patient, and continued, "I have seen the thread on Su Daji's neck, and you two leather craftsmen have thirty-six stitches for sewing corpses, the most vicious of which is the 'Heavenly Absolute Needle', which is similar to the Taoist ghost lock formation, once it is sewn on, the soul can no longer be separated from it, and it is connected with the body. However, you didn't finish sewing up the heavenly needle, you missed a hook, leaving a glimmer of life for the female corpse, if you don't know the reason, how can you leave this glimmer of life for the female corpse? ”

The second cobbler frowned when he heard this, and stared at Liu Cheng in a daze, "How do you know about things in our industry?" ”

"Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. The things of your corpse sewers are also inherited from the Yellow Emperor, and the Yellow Emperor is one of the three ancestors of Taoism, and your things are from the same sect as Taoist things, I can see that it is not surprising. Liu Cheng said leisurely, with a confident face, not at all worried that the two cobblers would not tell us, and then added, "Your current situation will not last for two days, if you can tell me what I want to know, maybe I can save your life." ”

The second leatherman smiled, "This is a providential punishment, how can you save me if you are just a Taoist priest?" ”

"If I say I can save it, I can save it." Liu Cheng said firmly, and then there was a long silence, the two cobblers and Liu Cheng looked at each other for a long time, and I don't know if they made eye contact with each other, and the second cobbler finally spoke.

"About three days ago, a few people came to me with a female corpse and asked me to sew the female corpse with a 'Tianjue needle', because the Tianjue needle was very vicious, and it was expected that they wanted to harm people, and I saw that the female corpse was full of luxury, I categorically refused, but those people were very capable, saying that if they didn't sew it, they would die immediately, and after sewing, they would protect me from death, there was no way, I had to do it."

"What was the reason you had that stitch?" Liu Cheng asked.

The second cobbler then got up, went to the bottom of the counter and took out a wooden box, and when he opened the box, there was a yellowed book with the words 'Corpse Book' written on it, and he walked out with the book in his hand, and said, "This is a score that has been handed down since the beginning of the sewing corpse maker, every thirty years." Once, the new dragons and phoenixes in this world were added, and now a total of 559 emperors and 559 phoenixes have been recorded, and the appearance of each emperor and queen will be recorded in this corpse spectrum, in order to let the descendants of the corpse sewer remember the appearance of these people, so as not to accidentally touch their corpses in the future, thus causing heavenly punishment. The corpse of the woman they transported a few days ago was also recognized by me in this genealogy, and it was Su Daji, the woman of Di Xin. ”

I thought it was amazing, "There are so many people in this world who look alike, how can you conclude that it is Su Daji?" ”

"In addition to Su Daji's beautiful appearance, her biggest feature is her eyes, according to legend, when Su Daji looks at people seriously, her eyes will become fox eyes, when I helped the female corpse sew the corpse, she glared at me and was recognized by me."

The female corpse also glanced at me before, and I instantly felt like I was hooked, through what he said, her eyes were quite weird in retrospect, which is probably why Sun Siren covered her eyes, and muttered, "No wonder future generations will say that she is a fox spirit." ”

It is also recorded in ancient books that Su Daji can see through the bone marrow of living people at a glance, which is extremely magical.

Liu Cheng asked again, "Just for this reason, it won't let you leave her a way out, right?" ”

The second leatherman asked rhetorically, "Have you ever heard the legend that the Fire Feather Immortal Emperor Xin is immortal?" ”

Liu Cheng and I were stunned for a moment, then nodded, "I heard." ”

The second leatherman said, "I don't know if this legend is true or not, but there is another legend that we sewers have circulated. Legend has it that Emperor Xin has the life of the third emperor, and Su Da has the life of the third phoenix, when the three dragons gather and the three phoenixes sing together, the sleeping Vermilion Bird will be awakened, and then the Emperor Xin will also wake up and summon the undead to conquer Xiqi. ”

Liu Cheng and I looked at each other, not understanding too much.

The second leatherman said, "The legend spread by the corpse sewer is that no one can have the life of the third emperor or the life of the phoenix, and people can live at most one life, and the three lives of Di Xin and Su Daji are borrowed from others for two lives, so the real meaning of the three dragons gathering and the three phoenixes singing together means that the people of the three emperors meet at the same time, and the people of the three phoenixes speak at the same time, Di Xin will take the luck of the other two dragon lives, and Su Daji will take the luck of the other two dragon lives, and then Di Xin will be resurrected." After a pause, he added, "They asked me to sew Su Daji to death with a heavenly needle, and before that, I found that Su Daji already had a soul locking nail on his head, thinking that they didn't succeed in locking the soul, and wanted me to sew it again." The Heavenly Absolute Needle can make the soul and the corpse fit again, they should want to wait until then to kill Su Daji, so that they can kill her soul together, and then completely destroy her soul, without Su Daji's life in this life, it will be impossible to achieve the three phoenix unison, and Di Xin will not be able to resurrect. ”

Liu Cheng nodded after hearing this, "I understand." As he spoke, he stood up and walked out.

The second leatherman hurriedly said, "How are you going to save me?" ”

"Come to Zhengyangguan tomorrow to find me." Liu Cheng left a message.

After walking for a long time, I asked, "What do you mean by the gathering of the three dragons and the singing of the three phoenixes?" ”

"You, Qinglong Weir under Qinglong, Di Xin, the three dragons gather; Su Daji and Zhou Xiaoan are already twin phoenixes, and there is still one missing. When these people come together, their luck and strength are enough to defy the sky. The descendants of the Protoss had already noticed it, so they arrested Zhou Xiao'an, which is also the reason why they wanted to kill Su Daji overnight, if it weren't for Zhou Xiao'an's backstage being tough enough, she would have died, they were afraid that Di Xin would really be resurrected. ”

"Zhou Xiaoan is a phoenix?" I was shocked.

Liu Cheng smiled, "Remember what I told you, let you have a good relationship with her." ”
