Lin Xixue held her cheeks and watched the walking corpse writhing in the streets and alleys for a long time, and she didn't move far.

I can't understand how to walk, and if I want to talk about going over the wall, it's obviously even more impossible.

She immediately understood that since this walking corpse would not climb over the wall, there was probably only one possibility for it to appear here.

It's nothing more than that the Xu Mansion beggars its neighbors and throws this corpse into the street.

After all, the old man of the Xu Mansion is about to have his birthday, how can the mansion allow this kind of change?

It's reasonable to think about.

No longer worrying about other people's affairs, it is really convenient, she can use a complete bystander posture to observe silently, and the whole person's state of mind is much calmer.

A moment later, a group of messengers with knives and lanterns rushed in, blocked the front and back of the alley, and then approached step by step, surrounded the walking corpse in a corner, pulled up the chains, and tied the walking corpse to the point where it could not move.

The messenger was followed by an official and two officials.

Lin Xixue only recognized this official at a glance by looking at the official uniform, this person was an official of the Soul Suspension Division under the Yunzhou Mansion.

These two little officials, it's easy to guess, looking at the clothes and the things in their hands, they think that one is a second leatherman, and the other is a corpse chaser.

As the name suggests, the Soul Stopping Division is an institution set up by Yunzhou Mansion that is specifically responsible for collecting corpses and stopping spirits.

The second leatherman is responsible for collecting corpses and sewing corpses, and the people of this world are different from the previous life who can accept cremation, and pay attention to leaving a whole corpse after death.

Therefore, before the burial, if the body is defective, the second leatherman should sew it up and collect it, and return the whole body.

The corpse chaser is because when the body is buried in this world, in addition to requiring the body to be complete, it is best to return the leaves to the roots and return the deceased to their place of origin before they can be buried.

Naturally, there have been white things in the predecessor family, so Lin Xixue, who has obtained the memory of the predecessor, is naturally no stranger to these professions.

These rather complicated taboos before burial were just common customs in the eyes of the predecessors at that time.

But Lin Xixue has now discovered many weirdness in this world, and looking at these customs and taboos, she feels more and more that there must be some special reasons behind this.

Lin Xixue saw that the second cobbler had a look of embarrassment, put her mouth close to the ear of the official of the Spirit Stopping Division, and whispered something.

However, although his voice was very small and very far away from Lin Xixue, under the locking of his divine sense, Lin Xixue naturally heard it clearly.

"My lord, I'm a corpse sewer, but this is not a corpse, it's a walking corpse, obviously the Lord of the City God refuses to accept his spirit, look at my ......"

In the end, almost all of them cried.

"Bastard thing, don't I have eyes, sir, I don't know this is a walking corpse?" The official of the Soul Stopping Division lowered his voice and rebuked.

"Just because it is a walking corpse, there will be disaster if you stay in the city, I asked these dozen or so messengers to tie it up and hold it, and you can sew his head back while he can't move!"

"And then you!" He pointed to the corpse chaser, "Before dawn, choose the hardest coffin, nail the coffin board to me, and then send this corpse out of the city." ”

The corpse chaser naturally looked innocent, and said in confusion: "But my lord, this person's origin is unknown, where am I going to send it?" ”

"Fools, two fools, you just need to send them out of the city, who cares where you send them, just find a mass grave and bury it, this walking corpse can be anywhere before dawn, but not in Xinliang City, understand?"

The corpse chaser and the second leatherman looked at each other, hesitated again and again, but then arched their hands: "My lord, we are in the business of fishing for the wrong door, and you also know that those who do our business must abide by the rules......"

The official of the Soul Stopping Division had a cloudy and uncertain face, and his teeth were biting "Clickica", and he flicked his sleeves.

"Thirty taels, thirty taels each of you two! Do it, if you don't do it, get out! ”

Hearing so much reward, the two cobblers smiled happily and flattered: "Thank you, Lord reward!" ”

But the corpse chaser still rubbed his hands nervously, and replied tremblingly: "My lord, thirty taels is a lot, but I have to come back to get the reward!" ”

"Stupid, let you use the hardest coffin, do you know what the hardest is called! Nails are nailed, and then tied up with iron hoops, a few more turns, can there still be a problem? ”

Seeing that the corpse chaser was still hesitating, the official of the Soul Stopping Division finally lost his patience and waved his hand: "Get out, I'll call someone else!" ”

"My lord, I'll go, I'll go!"

After this expulsion, the corpse chaser immediately made up his mind, if this vote was made, he could be guaranteed food and clothing for three years.

Seeing that the corpse chaser agreed, the second leatherman immediately discussed with the official of the Spirit Stopping Division in a low voice: "My lord, you look at this corpse, you have to find his original head first, right?" ”

"There is no need to worry too much, this official has ascertained the whereabouts of the heads of these five walking corpses, and these heads can be sent later." The Soul Stopping Division official spoke with confidence, as if everything was under control.

However, Lin Xixue, who was watching the excitement from the sidelines, felt that this matter seemed to be about to unfold in an unexpected direction.

To say why......

Because she ripped off all the faces and scalps of these five people before leaving, then she could tell who was who.

What happens if you sew the wrong head?

Lin Xixue continued to observe the changes in the situation, and sure enough, someone arrived on a fast horse with five blood-stained spherical packages in his hands.

The second cobbler took the package from under the horse, opened it, and felt that it was dark in front of him.

"Your Excellency...... This, this...... How can I tell the difference? ”

The official of the Soul Stopping Division looked at the scene in front of him, and his mind was also a little confused, he had been in this position for seven or eight years, and this was the first time he had seen him.

He gritted his teeth again, stretched out his five fingers, and said, "Fifty taels, try one by one, there is always one right!" ”

The second tanner knelt down, kowtowed, and begged for mercy in a sad voice: "My lord, you are kind, don't tell me fifty taels for this job, even five hundred taels, and I can't do five thousand taels." You should ask the immortal chief of the three-yuan view to do the meeting. ”

When the official of the Soul Stopping Division heard this, his eyes flickered, and a plan suddenly appeared in his heart.

He grabbed the collar of a messenger beside him and said, "You immediately go to the city gate and gather five homeless people, ask for simple needlework, and say that all those who can come will be rewarded with a full meal!" Just go! ”

Then another messenger was called and instructed: "Find, within a quarter of an hour, wherever you may come from, find enough food to feed the displaced people who have entered the city." ”

"And you, when the displaced people are full, don't bring them all at once, but bring them one by one, lest others find out something strange and dare not come, you know?"

"My subordinates understand!" The messenger received the order, and immediately hurried to the gate of the city.

A moment later, the first homeless man arrived.

The second cobbler looked at the homeless man with obvious unbearability, but he forced himself not to speak.

If these homeless people notice something strange and dare not go up, they can only let him go, and he will die at that time.

The first homeless person saw the bloody head and the headless walking corpse wriggling strangely on the ground, and naturally resisted.

However, when the official's horizontal knife was on his neck, he realized that he had no choice.

I had to pick up a head with no skin and bare musculature and walk towards the walking corpse......
