Chapter 77: Heart for Heart
After hearing the shouts of the guy, the caravan leader rushed in with his men. After entering the warehouse, he saw a tragic phenomenon. He saw corpses everywhere, and a strong smell of blood rushed straight to his forehead. These people were killed by sharp weapons, and almost all of them were rotten to death.
In addition to the dead, the goods in the warehouse were also froze. It seemed that someone had thought about these goods and came to surplus and kill people.
After walking around inside and out for a few times, no living person was found. The leader arranged for his subordinates to report to the city, and sent someone to the next warehouse to report the information, asking them to be more careful. Such things such as being copied by the warehouse rarely happens, let alone not even a living person, such an incredible thing. Being able to build a warehouse in the local area has already shown that the Sishui number has already understood the black and white. Now that such a tragic incident has happened, the leader himself finds it incredible.
Waiting for the stall where the official sent a visit, I asked Wu Mian, the driver who drove the car to the boss, walked to the boss and whispered a few times. Then the boss ordered his men to arrange the broken goods again, found out that the goods inside were not short of them.
I originally thought it was just that bandits came to kill people and rob, but now I saw that the goods were intact, but someone deliberately made the illusion of coming for the goods. After finding out the goods, the leader was already wet with cold sweat. Since he was not willing to see money, he said that this time he came for the sign of the Sishui number.
At this time, Ji Lao looked at the boss and had already returned to the carriage with thick cloth curtains. Then he said to the carriage leader: "Boss, you only look at the goods. Do you also check these dead people? Just check a few, so you won't delay the official's coroner's autopsy?"
When he heard Ji Lao ask him to investigate the dead, the leader frowned even more. Although he had several lives on his hands, killing people is easy. The autopsy is another matter. The dead people have dealt with him. In the past, they looked up but didn't look down, let alone their stomachs are so bad that they die.
Seeing the boss's face look in a difficult mood, Ji Lao smiled slightly and continued, "If you, who is in charge, trust Ji Lao, I will check it out for you."
This leader was naturally eager to do so. He asked Ji Lao to check these dead bodies for him. Ji Lao checked four corpses in different locations. He checked very carefully. Even the internal organs that did not flow out of the dead man's belly were also taken out together, and they checked them one by one.
Almost half an hour later, Ji Lao asked the caravan's clerk to call clean water to wash his hands, then washed his hands and said to the leader: "Original, you'd better be prepared for what I want to say later. If you think what I said is a bit absurd, then you'd better listen to the government's coroner explanation later..."
Speaking of this, Ji Lao paused for a moment, waited for the leader to understand and disperse the friends gathered around him, and then he continued to whisper: "A total of fifty-one people died. Among the four corpses I checked, each of them had their hearts secretly changed. It looked like their own human hearts. In fact, these four corpses were just slaughtered. I guess the other forty-seven corpses were similar..."
The leader was stunned for a moment. After a long time of rest, he understood what Ji Lao said. Although he had heard of how this monk resurrected himself, Ji Lao's words were too incredible. He still didn't believe what the monk said: "How can human hearts be the same as pig hearts? Mr. Ji Lao, you are a monk. You should hear the coroner's words in a while."
The leader's reaction was in Ji Lao's expectation. The former Wentian Tower owner smiled slightly and continued, "I also guessed that the head would think this was a bit too strange. In this way, you will write what I just said in a letter to the two owners of Sishui later, just say that it was said by a monk named Ji Lao. If it is true or false, just ask the two owners to decide by themselves."
The leader still felt that Ji Lao was saying too strangely. He really wrote such a thing in the letter, but he was afraid that the boss would scold him for talking nonsense. Although he nodded, he still waited for the attribution of the government coroner in his heart.
After a while, the client who reported to the official led a dozen officers to the warehouse. These officers were not as good as those of the caravan. After seeing so many dead people, they didn't dare to move forward, but just sent the coroner far away.
Although the coroner was in his forties or fifties, he spoke with an old-fashioned face. Before working, he had to take charge of the leader and asked for a consistent amount of money to lose money. Then he walked around the dead and returned to the caravan. Before copying the corpse list, he asked for another significant amount of money. Then he was willing to tell the cause of his death: "These people were killed by a quick knife and injured their internal organs. This was not done by one or two people. It should have been done by all the bandits..."
After hearing the coroner's words, the caravan leader hesitated for a moment and said, "So have the hearts of these people replaced by pig's hearts?"
The coroner sneered at the moment, and then said to the leader: "Boss, you are confused by eating wine tonight. Do you think it's a bandit who kills people and asks people to make sober soup? Besides, people's hearts are people's hearts. If I change to pig hearts, can't I see that a coroner?"
The leader looked back at Ji Lao who was silent behind him. He heard the coroner's mocking tone and said endlessly, and gave him his usual money. Then he bought the coroner and closed his mouth. Then the murderous crime was taken over by the official. After the master woke up tomorrow morning, he came to check it in person, so he could return it to the people in the Sishui number. However, at that time, most of the goods inside had been used as physical evidence. He would never think of getting back in this life.
The caravan followed the official back to the city and went to the yamen to file a record first. This was what made the door of a large inn in the city. After these people lived in, they did not dare to act rashly. They had to wait until the other managers who came to take over from Sishui to come. After the handover, the caravan could go to Luoyang again.
With the experience of the last time, when Ji Lao walked into the inn with Qiu Fang on his back, the caravan surrounded the two monks. The clerk who responded to the door and the accountant were already sleeping in a daze. When he saw a large group of people coming in, he didn't see a man with a strange disease in it.
After the caravan team entered the inn, Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and the other four walked out of the carriage. After supporting the driver, Gui Bugui smiled and looked at the direction of the cargo warehouse outside the city, and then said to Wu Mian: "I thought I would go to Baima Temple to watch the show in a few days, but I didn't expect that there was another gong now, and it was really not peaceful along the way..."
"Old guy, don't say anything about watching the show, it's the beginning. Tell me how human hearts and pig hearts are." Before Wu Mian could speak, Bai Wuqiu couldn't help but speak and continued: "I have seen human hearts and eaten pig hearts. They both look similar, but whoever is idle is fine, will use pig hearts to exchange people's hearts."
"I want to find a reason to change my heart. Some people need to change it for people with weak hearts, and some practice evil magic." When Gui Bugui said this, the expression on his face was a bit strange. After pausing for a moment, he continued: "But the heart of pigs has changed people's hearts. It is the first time I have seen it. There are more than fifty people's hearts at one time. What does that person want to do?"
When Gui Bugui was talking, the caravan leader sent someone out to invite the four of them in. Then Gui Bugui was invited to the boss's room alone. After a while, the old guy came out of the boss's room and returned to the four of them.
When he saw Gui Bugui back, Xiao Rensan said first: "I'm old, this is the end of your mouth. Since you pointed it out for him, you have to worry about it. What, what did that person pester you and say?"
