If it were anyone else holding this money, I would definitely not be at ease.
But Jiang Pan's character is absolutely trustworthy.
Liao Cheng kicked Ma Kuan's body into the wasteland on the roadside and motioned for us to go back.
Ma Kuan had no possibility of becoming a ghost, so exposing his corpse in the wilderness was also his retribution.
A group of us turned and left.
However, when we returned to the fork in the road, a long team happened to be walking from the other road.
The team was extremely quiet, even a long queue made no sound.
The bright torch burned brightly, and the crackling sound was the only sound.
I noticed that in the middle of the group, someone was carrying a coffin.
There were red bouquets on the coffin. It was obviously a white matter, but it was extremely festive.
Everyone held wreaths, soul-calling flags, and even some paper pricks in their hands.
At the front was a gentleman wearing a gray robe, with a square face, and holding a long staff.
This gentleman has serious features and is about forty or fifty years old.
We happened to collide face to face.
The team stopped for a moment, and everyone looked at us.
Cold words came from the gentleman's mouth.
"When a lady in a bun marries a husband, idle people will take a detour."
He showed no emotion at all, and was even a bit scolding.
Jiang Pan's pupils tightened, and I felt a chill in my heart.
Liao Cheng raised his hand, stopped us directly, pushed us back a little, and got out of the way.
The gentleman holding the long staff stopped looking at us and walked straight forward.
A long queue of people followed behind.
There were too many people in the queue and it was too long. It took them half a cup of tea before the last person left our sight...
"Brother Liao, is that Mr. Yin from Buniang Village? This place is very close to Buniang Village." Jiang Pan murmured.
Liao Cheng didn't speak. He lowered his head and just walked forward.
Jiang Pan and I were a little behind.
I took steps to catch up, but Jiang Pan seemed to be walking a little slowly on purpose.
Surprised, I looked back at him, and Jiang Pancai whispered: "Yin Yang, I'm afraid Brother Liao has something he hasn't said." My expression changed slightly, and I suddenly had some speculation in my heart.
As Jiang Pan walked forward, he lowered his voice and said, "Brother Liao said that he had a good conversation with Mr. Yin during this period."
"But that was probably Mr. Yin just now. The relationship between the two of them is not easy to deal with."
"I'm afraid it's because of time constraints that Brother Liao just said we'd have a good chat?" My heart skipped a beat.
It was completely unexpected that Jiang Pan could analyze so many things through just a coincidental meeting with Mr. Yin...
I immediately whispered: "Brother Jiang, there is no need to ask more. Since Brother Liao said this, I will naturally listen to Brother Liao. After we return to Tang Town, if necessary, we can accompany Brother Liao back." Jiang Pan nodded. Head, this is indeed the truth, Dunkong's body cannot delay it for that long.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
After taking a look at Jiang Pan's face, I found that he really didn't think deeply about this matter anymore, so I felt relieved.
In the distance, Liao Cheng's speed became faster.
It suddenly occurred to me that Liao Cheng didn't want to confront Jiang Pan just now because he was afraid of showing his flaws? Are you walking fast on purpose to give me a chance to turn things around?
We walked back to the previous house before we saw the light of the fire.
He did not go back through the secret passage in the wall, but took the right path.
From a distance, I could see seven corpse drivers tied side by side.
Almost everyone looked ashen.
Huang Qi stood aside, his expression extremely high and proud.
Zhu Xie was sitting in front of the courtyard gate.
As soon as we approached, Huang Qi shouted excitedly, sir, and he hurried towards me.
Zhu Xun also stood up and walked quickly towards us.
Huang Qi was obviously a little uneasy. He asked in a low voice: "Didn't you catch Ma Kuan? Sir..."
I shook my head and said only two words, dead.
Huang Qi was stunned, his eyes were red, his lips pursed, his Adam's apple rolled again, and then he said: "Dead?"
"Okay, it's good to die, it's good to die!"
His expression was that of crying and laughing at the same time.
Obviously, crying is because I think of all these years of torture, and laughing is excitement and joy.
Zhu Xie was also relieved.
He told me in a low voice that these corpse exterminators have all been tied up, what should they do? Just behead him?
I shook my head and said that I would let Zhu Executioner ask for information about their harm and keep them all, and then send these people to the officials in Bazhou.
Zhu Xie looked embarrassed and said that these people were very tough-mouthed and might not even speak out until they died.
Liao Chengcai opened his mouth and said he was here to ask.
Jiang Pan nodded and told him to join him.
With that said, the two of them came to the front of the corpse exorcists.
I looked at the tents on the other side and murmured, "Lao Zhu, how many green corpses are there in total?"
Zhu Xian made a gesture and whispered: "Eight. That's a lot of people. If Mr. Jiang and Mr. Liao hadn't had the foresight, there would have been a fierce battle today." When I heard this number, my eyelids jumped up.
In addition to the faint fear, there was also a bit of surprise.
"Get them all out, tie them up, and let's take them all back to Tang Town."
Zhu Xie was obviously taken aback. He said uneasily: "Sir, they are all green corpses. Even if you can suppress them..." I interrupted Zhu Xie's words and said seriously: "You have forgotten that many years ago, Uncle Xu's paper After all the thorns are used up, the corpses of eight people will surely make him happy."
When I said this, a smile appeared on my lips.
Only then did Zhu Xie show a look of sudden realization.
He nodded and said with a wry smile: "I am really a rough man. Don't worry, sir. Mr. Jiang and Mr. Liao will have no problem suppressing the corpses. They themselves have been suppressed by the corpse exorcists for easy control." After speaking, Zhu Xie directly Walk towards the tent.
Of course, he also called the two servants in front of the carriage to help.
Huang Qi followed Jiang Pan and Liao Cheng and looked at the corpse exorcists.
I feel a little tired. I don't know if it's from tonight's fight or the aftereffects of carving the wooden figures and bleeding them.
I took a few steps back and reached the threshold where Zhu Xian was sitting. After I sat down, I leaned against the door frame.
Looking up at the sky, looking at the bright moon.
My thoughts first drifted back to Tang Town, thinking of Dunkong and He Zhi.
But soon, I thought of Li Cang again...
I closed my eyes hard and tried my best to get rid of unnecessary distracting thoughts.
I definitely can't get involved with Li Cang and his wife. Even if I'm reluctant to give up, I can never touch the other three souls of Dunkong...
Breathing becomes heavier.
The unconcealable feeling of reluctance and separation kept coming to my heart.
After finally waiting until dawn, Zhu Xie had tied all the green corpses to the top of the carriage and wrapped them in a white cloth so that no one could see them.
There was a look of satisfaction in Jiang Pan's eyes. Apparently, he got the answer he wanted.
Liao Cheng then ordered Huang Qi to go to the city to find officials to take away these corpse exorcists.
We spent half a day here again.
After all the corpse exterminators were taken away, we got in the car and left outside Bazhou, heading straight to Tang Town...
