“It’s great that the traitor’s family members were beheaded.”
"It's so shameless, my family hid in You Country."
"Fortunately, there is one left. Although she is a woman, she deserves it."
"I can't believe that this is the kind of family that usually gives out porridge every month."
"The Duke Zhenguo's office is also cruel. This corpse is placed in plain sight on the street. It's so scary."
"We have already cut off the seats, otherwise we wouldn't have let a favored commoner send us food and wine when we say goodbye to our loved ones."
"Is there anyone from such a traitorous family who sends food and wine?"
"There are all kinds of people, my poor son, life or death is uncertain now, damn Siqin Shengjing, you will not die well."
A lot of disturbing news passed through Zhuang Xun's ears. He was the accountant of a pawn shop. The news came from the teahouse next door. To ease the nausea of knowing about the murder in the morning, he chose a lively place.
"No one collects the body?" Zhuang Xun stroked the table.
"If no one collects the body, it will be taken to a mass grave tomorrow and it will become a lonely ghost. She deserves it!"
"I'm afraid if I don't wait, a wild dog might take my head away at night."
"No dog will eat such a disgusting human skull."
The more they talked, the more terrifying they became. Zhuang Xun looked at the sky and saw that night was approaching in the dark sky.
Although he was a little afraid of the execution ground, when he thought of Si Qin Mi's heroic words today, he still mustered up the courage to come to the execution ground again.
With good hands, we walked through the Meridian Gate. The blood-stained square looked like a slaughterhouse, with heads, blood, and corpses, allowing the public to visit freely. The dynasty told everyone the bloody reality of the fate of relatives of traitorous families.
Just seeing such a scene, Zhuang Xun was already a little dizzy, his chest was tight, and his stomach was uncomfortable, let alone looking for someone.
Seeing the sky getting darker and darker, I thought about the hardships I had just traveled through, being labeled as a refugee and starving without a job, that bowl of rice porridge, and a sentence that I will never forget.
"The young master wants to find a job, Chunlan, please tell the manager."
Although because of her short hair, she was misunderstood as a monk and returned to secular life, and was taken care of.
But the fact is that he found the most suitable job for him because of his industriousness, that of Mr. Accountant.
This position is not something you can just do if you want to, it needs someone to recommend you, but Zhuang Xun, a time traveler, has no proof. He is not as good as the local people in hard work. Without this sentence, he may have become a real refugee.
Thinking again about Si Qin Mi's bold statement yesterday that he was willing to be stained with blood, how could he bear to expose the corpse of his benefactor and his beloved martyr girl to the market.
Zhuang Xun looked at the execution ground, took two steps back, and walked towards the coffin shop in his memory to relieve his condition first.
I bought the cheapest one and bargained with the boss, hired a carriage, and carried the coffin to the execution ground.
It's almost getting dark.
"If you want to get the corpse, you must first give the guard forty coins. This is called the guardian fee..." The driver was a gray-haired old man who was talkative and gave Zhuang Xun science knowledge about the execution ground.
In short, if you want money, you can't afford to die, and a dead person will squeeze out a lot of oil.
"Do you want me to help you find the body? Ten cents will do." When they arrived at the execution ground, seeing Zhuang Xun's unsteady appearance, the man said thoughtfully.
"Sorry to bother you, old man." Zhuang Xun was still not used to this scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
"It's at that location. What's your name?" The old man looked happy and got ten coins easily.
"About the main entrance, female, Siqin Mi." Zhuang Xun said word by word, resisting the urge to vomit.
"The surname is Siqin? The daughter of the Siqin family who was executed today? The traitor's daughter?" The old man's expression became cold.
"That's right." Zhuang Xun said sadly, not noticing his cold expression.
"Lower the coffin." The old man said forcefully.
"No, it wouldn't be better just to put the body in the coffin. Why do we need to unload it?" Zhuang Xun was a little confused.
"You don't want to do this business, old man! I'll put you in the coffin." The old man said sternly, with an expression of uncontrollable anger. .
"Why...I understand."
The daughter of a traitor, everyone wanted her body to be exposed in the wilderness.
"The old man's hometown is from Xihe County. This beast Siqin Shengjing deserved his daughter's death!" After unloading the coffin, the old man climbed onto the donkey cart and said harshly to Zhuang Xun.
"I know." Zhuang Xun said to himself. Of course, Zhuang Xun knew how much people's opinions towards Siqin Mi were.
All the hatred towards Siqin Shengjing was vented on Siqin Mi who stayed in Yindu.
However, when receiving favors from others and not helping others when they are in trouble, Zhuang Xun cannot do it, which is a pity for the education he has received for more than ten years.
With the money to protect the gods ready, Zhuang Xun entered the execution ground. The pungent smell and the large amount of blood soaked on the ground made him feel like he was going to faint.
Zhuang Xun recalled the location this morning and endured the discomfort when he found a human head with blood stains on his face.
It was decapitated, but not completely. There was still a bit of skin stuck together on the neck.
Fortunately, the eyes were closed, and the eyes of other corpses were open. It was really terrifying, and they would die with their eyes open.
Holding back his nausea and weakness, he moved the body into the coffin with difficulty, knelt on the ground, and then vomited.
I didn't eat dinner, so I vomited sour water.
After vomiting, he leaned against the coffin and felt confused for a while.
What to do next, where will this coffin be buried?
I spent another ten cents to hire some guards to take care of me, but they stopped working at that time.
Zhuang Xun went to various car dealerships. When he heard that it was the daughter of Si Qin's family, he refused to transport her because most of the people in the car dealerships were from Xihe County.
Now the entire Xihe County is eager to eat the Si Qin family's flesh. Not only does it not allow it, but it also prohibits all colleagues from pulling horses, and they can't even borrow horses.
The land was easy to find, regardless of Feng Shui, it was more than ten square meters. However, due to its proximity to the capital, the price of the land was second only to the coffin, and Zhuang Xun's wallet shrank again.
Returning to the execution ground in time and continuing to take care of the coffin, Zhuang Xunduo hoped that someone from Zhenguo Duke's office, Si Qinmi's husband's family, would come, but he was so exhausted that he slept on the coffin all night and there was no movement. On the contrary, the government office came the next day. Here comes the body cleaner.
They packed the boxes randomly, mixed heads and corpses, and dumped them in mass graves anyway. Then the ground was cleaned to remove the blood stains. The final destination of these corpses was mass graves.
"Excuse me, can you help transport a coffin? I'll pay." Zhuang Xun said hopefully.
"Usually it's lucky, but what you're packing here is the daughter of the Si Qin family, right? That's not okay. You can let us transport it to the mass grave." The leading soldier spat, expressing his disapproval of the Si Qin family. dismissive.
"Please be accommodating, Master Bing." Zhuang Xun handed over eight or nine copper coins.
"Accommodating? That's what the rules and regulations are. It's strictly forbidden to use corpse trucks to transport corpses for people who are not relatives of the corpse." The soldier took the money and explained the relevant rules and regulations, as if the money was just enough to know the information about the regulations.
"..." Zhuang Xun understood that this was a challenge, and he also understood that it was difficult for him to solve it with money. He could have solved it if he had a lot of money, but he didn't.
He is holding his breath now and has done everything. How could he give up?
Hearing the relatives mentioned by the soldiers, Zhuang Xun thought of Si Qinmi's husband's family in Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.
