Bian Lang transmigrated to a Wuxia world, carrying a glass ball that could herd corpses. As long as he successfully herded a corpse, he would receive rewards.
"Successfully herded Luo Mo&...
There is only one body of Rama.
But if dozens of them were to appear, probably none of them would be genuine.
If it weren't for the Corpse Brother instructing him to go to Justice Fortress and move Rama's remains to the Joyful God Pavilion, Bian Lang would definitely have suspected that the Rama remains in Justice Fortress weren't real either.
Shangguan Hongyu knew that Bian Lang meant well, and said with a smile, "Brother Bian, regardless of whether this Rama body is real or fake, we have now fulfilled my father's last wish by sending Rama's body from Justice Fortress to the Joyful God Pavilion, and that will be considered a completed mission."
Since the master had spoken, Bian Lang had no need to overstep his bounds.
The two men who received the body moved the corpse containing Rama's remains onto the wooden plank, then lifted the plank and quickly disappeared into the mist of the swamp.
Bian Lang repeatedly emphasized that Ye Zhanqing's body was just an extra, but the two people who received the body refused to accept it no matter what.
Bianlang shook the Soul-Capturing Bell, and Ye Zhanqing hopped forward, quickly sinking into the swamp.
"Brother Bian, this is the gold I promised you." Shangguan Hongyu took out a money pouch from her bosom.
The money bag wasn't big, but it was filled with gold leaves.
Bian Lang had no reason to refuse and reached out to take it.
Corpse Brother rarely rewards gold or silver, while Bian Lang has many places to spend money if he wants to live a good life.
"I have to go back to observe mourning for my father. If Brother Bian doesn't mind, I will marry you in two years." Shangguan Hongyu believed that honesty was the foundation of life in the martial world.
Bian Lang chuckled and said, "Not at all, how could I possibly mind?"
With her beauty, Shangguan Hongyu could be considered one of the most beautiful women in the martial arts world. Even on the Qinhuai River, she was comparable to the most beautiful courtesan.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Bian Lang's abstinence period will end in two years.
The matchmaker's arrangements are just that perfect.
"What are your plans, Brother Bian?" Shangguan Hongyu blushed.
Bian Lang was waiting for Corpse Brother's notification.
After Rama's remains enter the Joyful God Pavilion, the Corpse Brother should calculate the rewards.
Whether to rest for a while or continue transporting corpses is up to the Corpse Brother.
Bian Lang thought for a moment and said, "If there's work to be done, I still have to drive corpses."
“I see a hunter’s cabin over there. It’s still early, let’s go rest there,” Shangguan Hongyu suggested.
Bian Lang nodded.
The hunter's hut had bedding, but it was dirty and smelly.
Fortunately, there was some clean straw nearby, so the two of them lay down on it.
Exhausted, Shangguan Hongyu quickly fell asleep.
"Brother Corpse, what's going on?" Bian Lang asked in his mind.
So much time has passed, and the Corpse Brother still hasn't issued the reward.
The corpse-driving ball transmitted an image into Bian Lang's mind.
At the edge of the swamp, after the two men who received the body carried away Rama's remains, they did not venture further. After disappearing into the mist, they quickly fled from the other side.
After leaving the swamp, they cut open the corpse's belly and took out the small, dried-out remains of Rama.
One of them tore off the human skin mask from his face, revealing Zeng Jing's face.
Zeng Jing is Xi Yu, who has undergone cosmetic surgery.
When the other person revealed his true identity, it turned out to be King Yama.
"King Chakravartin, I have retrieved Rama's remains for you. Release my husband now!" Xi Yu gasped for breath.
King Yama, holding Rama's body, smiled sinisterly. He suddenly reached out and pulled Xiyu into his arms, grinning maliciously, "With Rama's body, I can become a real man again. Stay by my side, and I will make you the happiest woman in the world."
The drizzle's reaction was brilliant; it showed shock, disgust, but mostly despair.
The scene abruptly ends there.
The consequences of disposing of a body are extremely serious.
Bian Lang couldn't sleep anymore. He got up, wanting to go after Luo Mo's remains, but seeing that Shangguan Hongyu was sleeping soundly, he was worried about leaving her alone here.
King Yama, who boasted of being the greatest martial artist in the world, actually used such a trick to obtain Rama's remains; he was truly as cunning as a fox.
"Brother Bian, what's wrong?" Shangguan Hongyu suddenly opened her eyes.
Bian Lang said, "I have a feeling that something is wrong. Since Xishen Pavilion can store a corpse like Luo Mo's remains, it is impossible for them to be so careless, let alone treat us like that."
Shangguan Hongyu didn't care about Xishen Pavilion's attitude.
The Joyful God Pavilion is very mysterious and enjoys a high reputation in the martial arts world, so it's normal for its disciples to adopt a high-handed attitude.
"Come with me," Bian Lang said, and walked outside.
Shangguan Hongyu had no choice but to follow.
Upon arriving at the place where King Yama and Drizzle dissected the body, Bian Lang easily found the corpse of Zang Luo Mo in the thicket of thorns.
Shangguan Hongyu's eyes widened immediately.
Bian Lang sneered, "As expected, those two are not disciples of the Joyful God Pavilion."
"Brother Bian, how did you know the body was here?" Shangguan Hongyu asked curiously.
Bian Lang said, "I am a corpse driver."
The corpse driver must have a way of finding the corpses he just drove.
"Could those two also be Black Stone assassins?" Shangguan Hongyu clenched her fists.
Bian Lang nodded and said, "Very likely."
If robbery fails, then they resort to cunning; Black Stone is indeed as difficult to deal with as the rumors in the martial arts world suggest.
After obtaining Rama's remains, King Chakravartin will surely return to Chang'an.
Rama's remains must be recovered as soon as possible and sent to the Temple of the God of Happiness.
If the Corpse Brother determines that the mission has failed, the punishment will be to increase the number of days of abstinence from sex.
This increase could very well mean that he will completely lose his chance with Shangguan Hongyu.
A single punishment can add up to a hundred years of abstinence days.
The two searched the nearby woods, but found no clues by daybreak.
Shangguan Hongyu was heartbroken. Among the two people who tricked her out of Luo Mo's remains, there was likely one of her father's killers.
During his rest, Bian Lang communicated with the Corpse Brother in his mind, hoping that the Corpse Brother could help him find the remains of Rama.
He had already transported Rama's remains to the Temple of Happiness, but the person who emerged from the swamp mist was not a disciple of the Temple of Happiness.
Since the Corpse Brother did not provide any warning at the time, he bears primary responsibility for the loss of Rama's remains.
Sometimes, complaining to Corpse Brother has amazing effects.
Perhaps feeling that he also had some faults, Brother Corpse generously connected Rama's remains with Bian Lang.
No matter where Rama's remains were hidden, there was always a location in Bian Lang's mind.
When she arrived at a small town to stay overnight, Shangguan Hongyu took a bath and changed into women's clothing.
When she appeared in front of Bian Lang the next day, Bian Lang hardly recognized her.
The people eating in the inn all had their eyes on Shangguan Hongyu.
After spending more time together, they both felt very comfortable and no longer felt awkward.
For the next few days, they continued their journey, heading towards Chang'an.
Shangguan Hongyu said nothing, only hoping that Bian Lang's judgment was correct.
But if we end up empty-handed, it doesn't seem like a big deal.
Now that she's going back to Justice Castle empty-handed, she doesn't know how to explain it to her mother.
That evening, the two appeared in a small town.
Despite passing by many guesthouses, Bian Lang ultimately chose the Laifu Guesthouse, which was located in a relatively remote area.
The reason is simple: Rama's remains were in the Lai Fu Inn.
After settling into two superior rooms, Bian Lang went down to the lobby, where he drank and observed the surroundings.
