Chapter 7: A chance encounter with a deceitful corpse

The stranger broke in and his surprised actions calmed the chaotic voices present, looking at the young man in strange clothes,

Zhang Jingfang even forgot to blame him.

The Hu Ben guarded Zhang Jingfang, staring at the man in front of him vigilantly, feeling that his appearance was suspicious.

"This man's body was swollen and white, and he should have been soaked in the water for a long time; his body was covered with fish scales and fishy smell, and he should have had close contact with seafood." He said to himself, his eyes down, staring at the fingers of the corpse. "There is green residue in the cracks of his nails, which is a kind of water grass growing in the extreme north seas. He should have been to the extreme north." He looked at Zhang Jingfang and stood up with a smile, "So I concluded that he should have been fished out of the sea."

Zhang Jingfang bulged his mouth and leaned over to look at it. He really saw the blue and green stains in the gap of the nails of the corpse. However, he was dissatisfied and stood up and said, "Maybe these fishermen killed people in the extreme north and hid the corpse in the fish compartment and brought them back."

The tigers shouted for justice, but were scolded by the Hu Bengu, and his face was ashamed.

"If everyone who judges the case is as arbitrary as a lady, I'm afraid there will be so many prisoners in Anxi's prison. If good people are wronged and evil people are free from justice, then it will be really unreasonable."

"Stop your mouth." Hu Benwei rushed forward angrily.

"Slow down." Zhang Jingfang stopped Hu Ben Guard and looked at the young man and said, "Then do you know who killed this person?"

The young man smiled faintly and did not answer positively, "The residue in his hand is aquatic plants. This aquatic plants are non-toxic and have a fishy smell. In English, it can be processed into delicious dishes. Look at the corners of his mouth, although the original appearance is covered by whiskers, you can see the residue in the corners of his mouth. It can be clearly judged that it is aquatic plants. He should feed on aquatic plants. The Arctic land is full of ice, and it is difficult to sail. If he is drowned by water, he cannot breathe in the water, his eyes should be wide open and his pupils should be covered with blood."

"You mean he committed suicide?" Zhang Jingfang heard his friend's discussion. The 'Hunter Dog Detective' said the same thing. He nodded and looked at the young man, blinking his big eyes and said, "Why are you going to the Arctic for nothing? Isn't this asking for death?"

The young man was amused and cried and shook his head, "He might have gone to the Arctic land by accident, and his ship was destroyed by the ice, so he fell to the bottom of the sea, but survived, so he fed with water and plants. He might know the situation in the Arctic land, or he didn't know, but it is certain that something forced him to go." He turned to look at the tiger fishermen and said to Zhang Jingfang, "Didn't you notice it? Did these people look like they had been to the Arctic land? If they had gone, maybe like this person, the ship would have been destroyed long ago. What's even more ridiculous is why the criminals came back with their bodies, were they asking for trouble? What's his motive?"

Zhang Jingfang looked at Laohu and others again and said, "It seems that you are really not the murderers."

"Of course not, it should be considered the savior of this man." As soon as these words came out, Shi Potian was shocked and everyone looked at the young man. He was neither humble nor arrogant, and he smiled and looked at the corpse on the ground and said, "He has no fatal injuries all over, and he doesn't look like he drowned. You are looking at his Adam's apple, are he moving? He has his fingers."

Zhang Jingfang leaned towards the corpse and then saw clearly the appearance of the corpse. Her hair was very long and her moustache was covered, so she could hardly tell the appearance. The corpse's lips were moving and the Adam's apple rolled.

Zhang Jingfang became even more curious, trying to see clearly what this person who had been to the Arctic Glacier Land looked like, and leaned down a little.

The turbulent sea reflected in Cheng Geng's mind. He stood on the deck, which was shaken by the sea.

On the island, Gu Qiu's body continued to fall off, revealing his scarlet tongue. He suddenly stretched out and swept towards him.

The long red tongue continued to expand and grow, extending infinitely, and suddenly appeared above his head.

He sat on the deck with a terrifying look on his eyes and saw a brilliant and charming flower blooming in the sky.

The flower is so beautiful that it slowly stretches towards the sky, gradually covering the entire sea surface. The milky white juice drips from the flowers, like the saliva reflected when a beast sees the delicious food.

This flower is very strange, without leaves, and its roots extend directly from under the flower, appearing dark green, with water droplets lowered, falling on him, turning red, no, it should be blood. Could it be this flower bleeding?

Grizzled, a strange sound came, Cheng Geng looked at the island and disappeared from Gu Qiu, leaving only the cortical layer that could still be seen.

The flowers are trembling, and the flowers are blooming strangely, drooping long stamens, like tongues, but the tongue is golden and emits a brilliant light.

Touch, from the blooming buds, crystal clear things rolled down and fell in front of Cheng Geng.

Cheng Geng shivered, staring at the foreign object in front of him, and finally saw clearly that it was a crystal clear skeleton. He seemed to have seen it somewhere, but where was it? He couldn't remember it for a moment.

The giggling sound became louder. He looked sideways and saw the flowers in the sky shaking, the trembling petals gradually gathering and slowly tilting towards him. The strange appearance was like a person's laughing mouth, the long tongue of the falling buds and the long tongues of the falling buds, like long snakes, suddenly shot towards him.

"Ah." Cheng Geng struggled for a while, his eyes opened in horror.

"Ah, the corpse is cheated." Zhang Jingfang fell to the ground without any precaution.

The Hu Ben Guard was shocked and hurriedly stopped Zhang Jingfang, and helped Zhang Jingfang up one of them. The other people had already grabbed Cheng Geng who had opened his eyes on the ground.

"Say, who are you? What's your intention? How dare you scare us young lady?" The tiger guards were angry in their eyes. One of them took out a short gun and pressed it against Cheng Geng's forehead. "If you don't want to tell me, I'll shoot you with one shot."

Cheng Geng's blurred vision gradually became clear. When he saw Zhang Jingfang standing up in front of him, he showed a look of joy on his face. He hurriedly broke free from the Hu Ben Guard and rushed towards Zhang Jingfang.

This change was so fast that the Hu Ben Guard could not stop him. He grabbed Zhang Jingfang, "Take me to Governor Zhang and take me to Governor Zhang." But he thought about how he could come back in the extreme north again. He immediately let go of his hand and murmured, "By the way, he is not in Anxi, he is still in Iceland."

"You, who are you?" Zhang Jingfang was so beautiful that she couldn't help but become curious when she heard that this person was about to see her father, but she hadn't seen her father for several months.

The Hu Ben Guard stepped forward and grabbed Cheng Geng and pressed him to the ground, "Can you see our governor just by saying that you can see us?" The Hu Ben Guard angrily punched Cheng Geng on the back.

The severe pain came, and Cheng Geng said to Zhang Jingfang, "It's me, have you forgotten?"

Zhang Jingfang was puzzled and looked down. Not to mention, it looked familiar, but she couldn't tell it for a while.

"I've kissed you."

"Are you looking for death and taking advantage of my lady?" The two tiger guards beat Cheng Geng.

The rest of the people were in a panic, and the man kissed Zhang Jingfang. The information was too large and he couldn't believe it.

"Stop." Zhang Jingfang leaned towards Cheng Geng with red cheeks, and suddenly found the dark Buddhist bead on his neck. He said in surprise and joy, "Why are you? Why are you like this?"

"You, are your father and mother back?" Cheng Geng asked weakly, spurting out blood, spraying Zhang Jingfang all over, then showing a strange smile, and fainted.

Zhang Jingfang hurriedly said to Hu Ben Guard, "Take him into the car."

The three policemen were stunned! They didn't expect that the person who was resurrected from the dead was Zhang Jingfang's acquaintance.

The fat policeman looked at Cheng Geng being taken into the car and hurried forward and said, "Miss, these people?" He looked at the fishermen.

Zhang Jingfang remembered the young man, but at first glance, the young man had already left.

The tiger and the others looked sad and looked at Zhang Jingfang pitifully.

The smell of blood kept surging into Zhang Jingfang's nose. She looked at the blood stains on her clothes with disgust and waved, "Let them go." She closed the car door with a touch.

The bridge car headed towards Zhang Mansion.

Cheng Geng felt that he was being placed on the bed, and then someone held his pulse and saw the figure shaking in the hazy state. However, if he wanted to see it clearly, he still couldn't see the figure in front of him. He fell asleep again in anxiety.

"Miss, this rogue, why are you saving him?" A familiar voice came, probably Qiu Ju, and she continued, "Look at you, you are in a good dress, and you are ruined by this hateful guy."

"Okay, why are you so annoyed recently?" Zhang Jingfang said unhappily, "I asked you to bring a message to Miss An, have you passed it?"

"Well, what the lady told me is that I didn't do? " Qiuju looked at the person on the bed and reminded, "Miss, this person has disappeared for several months, dressed in a strange ancient Chinese dress. Maybe he did something bad. You still took him in? Why don't I tell the young master, it's safer."

"You girl has become more and more unruly recently. You are not unaware of it. I am very annoyed by my brother's mother-in-law's character, so I ignore him." She glanced at Qiuju, stood up, pointed at Qiuju and said, "Oh, I understand, have you been bribed by Jingrui and come to me as an undercover agent?"

"Oh my God, Miss, what are you talking about?" Qiu Ju said aggrievedly, "I was born as a lady, and died as a lady's ghost, and I will not be bribed by anyone." She was in tears and didn't know how to explain to Zhang Jingfang.

"Okay, I'm joking with you, it's so nervous." Zhang Jingfang looked at Cheng Geng slowly, and Ning frowned, "He just told me that he wanted to see my parents, but my parents have been missing for several months. I don't know where they went?"

Qiuju trembled and hurriedly came over, "Miss, do you think this person kidnapped the master and his wife?"

Zhang Jingfang was stunned, looked at Cheng Geng, then looked at Qiu Ju, and suddenly flicked Qiu Ju's head with his hand, and cursed, "What are you kidding? Who can kidnap her with my mother's skills?"

Qiuju rubbed her head and grinned, "I'm just guessing." She pouted and looked at Cheng Geng, inexplicably annoying.

Zhang Jingfang looked at Cheng Geng in a daze and said to himself, "Will my parents' disappearance have anything to do with him?" But when he thought of how Cheng Geng looked when he saw him, he dispelled his doubts.

At this time, an urgent voice came from outside the door. Zhang Jingfang looked out the door. A maid walked in, holding a post in her hand and said to Zhang Jingfang, "Miss, this is the post of Miss An's family. She said that you will be invited to attend the auction of An's family auction house in a few days. Her servant specially brought a message and asked me to tell you that Miss An said that there are novel things at this auction, so you must give it a glimpse, otherwise you may not be able to see it in the future."

Qiu Ju took the post, sent the maid away, and handed the post to Zhang Jingfang.

Zhang Jingfang saw the big gold-burned characters on the post, "An's Treasure Auction Conference". She gently opened the post, and the post was written in small regular script, "Please invite Miss Zhang Jingfang to attend the exhibition." The signature is in three words, cursive, An Ruyi.

There is actually a number on this post, and what Zhang Jingfang is holding is, Zero-1.

Qiuju leaned her eyes and forgot her eyes, took a cold breath and said, "Miss, you don't know that celebrities from all walks of life in the An family can only participate in this treasure conference in thirty-six provinces. Not only do you have to be rich, but you also have to be famous and have to have influence." She said, "Mr. An is also very respectful to the master. She sent people to invite the master several times, but she was shirked by the master. This time she invited the lady, it seems that Miss An mean, but she was given the first place to the lady. It can be seen that Mr. An is very good at doing things."

Zhang Jingfang glared at Qiu Ju and said, "You know a lot? I haven't heard of it?"

Qiuju smiled and said, "I heard from Xiu'er who served her wife. She told me that these were all said by the master and her wife, and they should not be fake. At this treasure conference, there are all rare things in the world, so, so..." She peeked at this Jingfang.

When Zhang Jingfang heard that there were many novel things, she immediately became interested and was so excited by Qiu Ju's strange appearance that she wanted to ask, "So what's wrong, tell me?"

Qiu Ju said embarrassedly, "I hope that if the lady goes this time, I will bring me with me." Qiu Ju looked at Zhang Jingfang pitifully and said, "I also want to see and experience. When I was with Sister Xiu'er and others in the past, they were all knowledgeable and had to say that, but I have been poor since I was a child. After coming to Zhang's house, I have been taking care of the lady. Although I have a lot of knowledge, compared with Xiu'er and others, I have some shortcomings, so I want the lady to take me with me."

She heard that the servants were not qualified to attend such gatherings, but if Zhang Jingfang was willing to take her with her, the An family would not dare to say anything, so she made such a request.

"Little girl, are you quite serious?" Zhang Jingfang closed the post with a smile, handed it to Qiu Ju and said, "Okay, I'm sure."

Qiu Ju was overjoyed, "It's great. When I come back, I will be able to show off with Sister Xiu'er and the others." She was very happy and put the post Zhang Jingfang handed her. She looked so happy that she wanted to go to the Baibao Conference now.

But Zhang Jingfang looked at Cheng Geng, his moustache and long hair, and secretly guessed what happened to Cheng Geng.
