"Cluck cluck…"
The sound of Qin Yi's footsteps on the gravel road was particularly ear-piercing in the quiet Weng Cao Village.
The shadow that was elongated by the moonlight swayed like a demon from hell, giving off a sinister aura.
Qin Yi did not notice that there were two 'tails' following behind him.
In the village, other than the occasional dog barks and Qin Yi's footsteps, there was no other sound.
In such an extremely quiet environment, Garzi was afraid that Qin Yi would notice that they were tailing them, so he kept a certain distance.
Furthermore, he was extremely careful when he walked, afraid that he would make any noise and alert Qin Yi.
After walking for about ten minutes, Qin Yi arrived at the mortuary at the end of the village.
From the outside, this low and dilapidated mortuary was somewhat similar to the old Siheyuan in the capital.
The ancient brick wall was covered with patterned wall tiles and withered vines. The other side of the wall had long fallen off. The wall was uneven, and the tiles on the roof were pressed tightly like fish scales.
The entrance of the dilapidated house was overgrown with weeds. It was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time. It gave off a lifeless and lifeless feeling...
Qin Yi didn't enter the mortuary directly.
Instead, he took down the bamboo basket on his back and took out two red paper lanterns.
Then, one on the left and one on the right, they were hung at the entrance of the mortuary.
He took out a bag of white powder that he could not tell what it was and sprinkled it at the gate of the mortuary.
After doing all this, Qin Yi walked in.
Seeing Qin Yi's actions, Gazi and Zhang Gua were confused.
Why did this kid come to this dilapidated old house in the middle of the night?
Could it be…
Was this a warehouse used to store drugs?
However, there were two lanterns at the door. What was going on?
Also, what did this kid spill at the door?
Qin Yi's various actions made the two of them confused.
Looking from afar, the two fiery red lanterns…
Under the hazy moonlight, they looked like the eyes of two demons.
This lifeless mortuary already looked ghastly at night.
After hanging up the two red lanterns, it looked even more strange and creepy.
The timid Zhang Xiaolan swallowed and looked at Garzi timidly.""Gazi, why do you think this kid is hanging lanterns at night? It's so scary…"
Garzi shook his head." How would I know? Maybe it's a cover-up?" To make this old house look like it was inhabited?”
"Then…then should we follow them in?" Zhang Xinxin asked again.”
To be honest, in terms of status, although Zhang Yurong was annoying, she was still a proper host. Her status in the entertainment industry was better than that of the fake wine seller.
However, as a sissy, she was naturally not as masculine as Gazi.
In a situation where there were only two people, Garzi naturally became the backbone.
Gazi glanced at him. We're already here. If we don't go in, how are we going to collect evidence?”
Although she was timid, she wasn't stupid.
"But this guy just went in and doesn't know what's going on inside. Is it really good to just go in rashly?”
" Who said we're going in now?" Gazi sneered." Wait a minute. We'll go in after that kid falls asleep."”
Looking at the two fiery red lanterns at the door, a sense of fear rose in her heart.
"He's already gone in. If this place is a warehouse, won't we be able to catch him with the stolen goods if we call the police now?”
At the end of the day, she was still afraid.
Gazi rolled her eyes at him.”
"Even if this place is a warehouse that stores drugs, if we call the police now, even if the police come and arrest the person, our contribution won't be great. At most, we'll provide clues to the police to help solve the case.”
Gazi narrowed his eyes, revealing a meaningful look.
"But if we catch this kid with our own hands and catch him with the goods, the credit will be different.”
All he could think about was how to maximize the impact of catching the bad guys.
Purely assisting the police in solving a case and catching the bad guy with his own hands were two completely different concepts. In comparison, the latter's contribution was much greater!
" But…" Zhang Xinxin frowned." It's very dangerous. They're drug dealers. They're very cruel."”
"Tsk!"
Gazi snorted disdainfully, patted his chest and said arrogantly,"Do you think my figure is just for show? Not to mention anything else, just that kid who just went in, I can at least fight five of them!”
Gazi had always been confident in his skills.
This was especially so after he had made a few iron cages with other internet celebrities and won all of them.
The inflated Garzi had always felt that he was a real martial arts movie star.
Unfortunately, those directors didn't know what to do…
Just as the two idiots were waiting foolishly at the entrance of the mortuary.
In the main hall of the mortuary, an eternal lamp was faintly lit.
The inside of the mortuary, which was originally pitch black, became faintly visible under the dim light.
In the main hall of the mortuary, there were five dilapidated coffins!
"Phew…"
Another gust of cold wind poured in through the cracks of the broken tiles on the roof.
It made the atmosphere in the mortuary even more sinister and terrifying.
These five coffins contained the three corpses that Qin Yi had to rush to the other towns.
The mortuary, also known as the corpse transportation station, was originally a place for corpse transportation workers to rest.
Therefore, there were naturally coffins inside for storing corpses.
The scale of the mortuary varied, and the number of coffins inside varied.
For example, the mortuary in Wengcao Village was considered a small mortuary with only five coffins inside.
For example, the number of coffins in Dayi Manor in the past could even be as many as a dozen.
Of course, with the change of times, there were very few mortuary residences that had not been demolished yet. Qin Yi had traveled far and wide, and it was already good enough that she could find a mortuary to stay in.
As for Qin Yi's series of actions before entering the mortuary, everyone had their own explanations.
Hanging red lanterns at the gate of the mortuary was the rule of the corpse transporter.
It meant to tell the other corpse porters that this mortuary was already occupied and that they should find another place to stay.
Although these days, a corpse transporter was more precious than a giant panda and there was no one who could compete with Qin Yi to stay in the mortuary.
However, the rules left behind by the ancestor had to be followed.
As for the white powder sprinkled on the door, it was actually coarse salt.
In the business of corpse herding, they were chasing corpses.
Due to the long journey and the hot weather at times.
In order to prevent the corpse from rotting, it was necessary to sprinkle coarse salt around the corpse.
The coarse salt itself would deliquesce and absorb the moisture in the air. This would form a dry environment that was conducive to preserving corpses.
From a scientific point of view, it was the same as using salt to marinate meat.
The most important reason was that the coarse salt could prevent animals from approaching.
For example, wild cats and dogs. If these animals approached the corpse, they would easily cause the corpse to transform.
As for the eternal lamp.
The people of the Dragon Kingdom had a tradition of looking down on death. After a person died, the mausoleum was also known as the netherworld. The king paid special attention to the mausoleum.
As a residence after death, they also hoped to be lit up like the palace when they were alive, so there was an eternal lamp.
Moreover, the Everlasting Light had another effect, which was to suppress Yin!
As long as the Eternal Light was not extinguished, the corpse would not turn into a corpse.
After doing all of this, Qin Yi lifted the lid of one of the coffins and laid down.
He used the coffin as a bed and slept with the corpse!
This was the daily life of a corpse transporter…
However, Qin Yi did not know that he had been chasing corpses for the entire day.
He would be thrown into chaos by these two idiots…
