Ding Youtian put down the iron spade and said with a smile, "What would you do if what I said was something you already knew?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Jincheng had already dropped the female corpse.

Ding Youtian chuckled twice, then calmly lifted his cloak and removed the sack and rope wrapped around his waist. He put the female corpse into the sack, tied the bag tightly with a rope, and pulled the rope over his shoulder with both hands. "Let's go."

He nodded to Huo Jincheng.

Only a fool would go through the trouble of carrying a dead person without feeling any discomfort.

"Are you planning to just drag her all the way to the river?" Huo Jincheng frowned. "Aren't you worried that the skin on her legs will rot by the time you get there?"

"My wife said that the souls of these evildoers have either been reincarnated or imprisoned in the underworld to be punished. Only their bodies remain in the world, and they will rot sooner or later if buried in the ground."

"You are using your womanly kindness in the wrong place."

"Furthermore, the injuries on their feet clearly indicate that they encountered some evildoers outside and, after much difficulty, fled back to the village. Starving and cold, they slipped and fell into the river, ultimately killing themselves."

It seemed to make sense. Huo Jincheng put the male corpse down from his shoulder and stretched out his hand to him, "Give it to me, the sack and the rope."

"I prepared this myself, not for you."

"Really?"

"No."

Huo Jincheng sneered, "You can't blame me for this." He took off Ding Youtian's cloak, took out a sharp knife and cut the cloak into strips. Then he tied the man's hands with the strips. "I'll compensate you with a cloak."

He dragged the corpse away.

Ding Youtian followed behind and said, "You should have compensated me with one anyway. Do you think I'd want one after you've carried a corpse in it? I don't want to wear it again and carry my daughter around the streets. The thought of it makes me nervous."

Huo Jincheng's footsteps faltered. He had seen many dead people, and wasn't afraid of them, so he didn't think too much about it. Before tonight, he had only ever carried Ah Man on his shoulders, so Ding Youtian's words really made him feel uncomfortable.

To speak up for Ah Man.

He couldn't carry Ah Man on his shoulders anymore from now on. But then he thought, Ah Man is grown up now. As an old father, it is not convenient for him to carry her on his shoulders like he did when she was little.

Thinking of this, he felt relieved again.

In the quiet night, the two men dragged the dead body one in front and one behind. Ding Youtian led him around to the upstream of the river base. Blind Liu and Jian Ning were already waiting for them there.

"You two go back and rest first. Uncle Liu and I will handle the rest of the work." Jian Ning put on gloves and asked them to go back first. Huo Jincheng wanted to stay and see how they would operate, but was forcibly persuaded to leave by Ding Youtian.

"Your wife is capable, not simple." Along the way, Huo Jincheng was still thinking that the two assassins' faces did not match, and even if they were soaked in water for a few days, they would still be recognizable. He did not expect that they had planned so carefully.

"Of course. If she were an ordinary woman, would I marry her?" Ding Youtian started to show off again. Huo Jincheng glanced at him and couldn't help but pierce him, "Have you ever considered that if she was really the daughter of Prince Pingnan, she might have been married long ago?"

Ding Youtian stopped and looked at him, "It's not you, is it? Did your two families arrange a marriage?"

He had asked unintentionally, but after asking he realized that this was very possible. Both of their families were in the capital, and arranged marriages were not uncommon in their hometown, not only in the capital, but also in their countryside.

"What will you do if I say it's me?" Huo Jincheng raised his lips with a playful smile. He was really curious and wanted to see how Ding Youtian would react.

He laughed, and Ding Youtian laughed too, his laugh even more playfully than his. "What can I do? Be happy. Even if your two families arranged a marriage, she's already my wife. And it wasn't me who stole her away. It was the Old Man Yue who sent her to me. If you don't agree, go find him and argue with him."

"She was originally supposed to be your wife, Huo Jincheng, but by some strange combination of circumstances, she became my, Ding's, wife. I couldn't be happier. Hahaha!"

He laughed loudly towards the sky, his laughter was so arrogant and unrestrained that Huo Jincheng was so angry that he almost couldn't hold back and wanted to kick him hard on the butt.

At the riverside, after the joint efforts of Jian Ning and Blind Liu, the two corpses had been completely changed and turned into the appearance of Lao Wu and Lu, from the hairstyle to the face, to the hands, and even the hairy mole under Lao Wu's right ear.

"Okay, wrap it with waterweed first. The rainy season is coming, and someone will find it when the water rises in a few days. That's it."

Blind Liu said.

Tonight he witnessed Jian Ning's extraordinary ability to take things out of thin air. As a cultivator himself, he was amazed.

"Since your Baicaojian was given to you by your master, I believe your master must also be a cultivator. May I know your master's name?"

"Master has passed away, and she wasn't an immortal cultivator. There were no immortal cultivators in our time and space. My master is just an old Chinese doctor who knows some martial arts. He said that he gained supernatural powers by chance, which is Baicaojian. It takes fate to separate the space, it seems..."

"What's going on?" Blind Liu asked her.

"I remember my master once said that she had accepted many disciples in the past, but I was probably the only one who received the gift of a separation space. She said she had tried to give the other disciples away, but she couldn't."

What Jian Ning meant by supernatural powers, Liu Xiazi understood as the art of cultivating immortals. His master had mentioned other time and space to him, and he suspected that his master had torn the barrier and went to another time and space. Therefore, he suspected that Jian Ning, who came from another world, was his junior sister.

However, his master was not the kind of person who accepted disciples indiscriminately, and he had never heard his master mention that he owned Baicaojian. But one year on his birthday, his master said he would give him a gift. Later, he didn't know whether his master had forgotten or what, but in any case, his master didn't give it to him, and he didn't ask.

There were many masters in this world, and his master wasn't the only one who could tear through the barrier and travel to other time and space. He looked up at the night sky and sighed, "Your master is truly a master, and so is my master. May she be well in that other time and space!"

Jian Ning remembered that when she first came here, Blind Liu had mentioned something like tearing the space-time barrier. At that time, she didn't dare ask him, but now she had no scruples and asked, "Uncle Liu, is there really anyone who can tear the space-time barrier by human power? Can your master do it, or can you do it too?"

"That old blind man doesn't have that ability. As for my master, I can't say for sure. Anyway, I haven't seen it with my own eyes. I just heard her mention it once or twice when she was happy and drank a few more glasses of wine."

"Didn't your master mention it to you?" he asked Jian Ning again.

Jian Ning shook her head. Her master wasn't a scientist, and if he were to preach about this, it would be considered feudal superstition. On the way back, she thought of Duan Xinning. She had always wanted to ask Blind Liu to help her soul pass away. Otherwise, every time she saw Huo Jincheng, she would constantly want to get closer to him, which was not a good thing.

"Uncle Liu, could you perform a ritual to help Xin Ning pass away, so that she can be reincarnated?"
