"Ten years ago, Brother Chen's youngest brother was bewitched and left home. He hasn't returned since. After hearing about you from me, he decided to try his luck with you."
Yu Ying explained the reason clearly, took out a bag of fairy stones and placed it on the table, then said, "Even if Brother Chen isn't here, these rewards are still yours. What do you think, Boss Shi?"
Xiang Sheng's eyes were indifferent. He took a sip of tea without looking at the fairy stone bag. He said slowly, "Give me the old stuff."
When Yu Ying heard this, she knew that she had agreed. She immediately felt relieved and stretched out her hand to the middle-aged man: "Hurry and give it to me!"
The middle-aged man took out a small wooden sword from his arms and put it in Yu Ying's hand. He endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help it anymore and said sternly:
"Boss Shi, no matter what the outcome today is, I can accept it. But if I find out later that you dared to deceive me, I will never forgive you!"
"Brother Chen, what are you doing?"
Yu Ying suddenly became anxious and quickly sent a secret message:
"I have known Boss Shi for many years, he is definitely not a liar!
Boss Shi's whereabouts are erratic. She has been collecting corpses all over the Fragmented Continent. I waited for her to come back with great difficulty and immediately brought you here. Why did you make me offend others?
If Boss Shi gets angry and just walks away, I'll see what you can do!"
Chen Liuhai had heard these words before, but seeing is believing, so he only believed what he saw with his own eyes.
But Yu Ying's words also made sense. Chen Liuhai was silent for a moment, then softened his voice and apologized, "I was worried about my youngest brother and lost my composure just now. Please forgive me, Boss Shi."
Xiang Sheng ignored Chen Liuhai. Whether he lost his temper or apologized, it had nothing to do with her.
She took the wooden sword from Yu Ying's hand, closed her eyes for a while, and suddenly opened them. Her gaze fell on the coffin that had just been dragged back, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
What a coincidence.
Seeing her reaction, Yu Ying immediately asked, "Any results?"
Lu Liuhai looked at it with a frown on his face, and suspicion in his eyes grew.
Although he had never had the opportunity to learn any method of cultivation, he had seen others use hand gestures to perform their techniques.
The coffin shop owner held the wooden sword, closed his eyes, and did nothing, but he found his youngest brother?
No matter how you look at it, this looks like a scam.
Xiang Sheng didn't give him another chance to question. He stood up, waved his sleeve, and lifted the outer coffin lid. "Let's see if it's him."
Lu Liuhai's body shook immediately. This time, there was no need for Yu Ying to repeat herself. He rushed to the coffin without saying a word.
Seeing the familiar, peaceful and innocent face lying in the coffin, Lu Liuhai's eyes instantly turned red.
How is that possible?
He just came here to try his luck. How come his youngest brother happened to be lying in this outermost coffin?
It must all be an illusion!
He reached out with trembling hands to pull open the chest of the corpse, and saw the unique birthmark of his youngest brother. His heart finally died completely, and he could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
"Qi'er, why did you leave me?"
"Didn't you say that you wanted Big Brother to enjoy a good life in the future?!"
"You don't keep your word!"
…
Amidst the howling, Yu Ying's eyes turned red and she couldn't stop crying.
She turned her head to look at Xiang Sheng again, and saw that she was still as cold and indifferent as ever, but she was not surprised.
Lu Liuhai was not the first person she brought with her.
After so many years, she has long witnessed how cold-hearted Boss Shi is.
It seemed that no matter how tragic the story was, it could not move her at all.
After one stick of incense, the crying continued.
Xiang Sheng took out a fairy stone and accepted it, then threw the rest along with the bag at Lu Liuhai's feet. His voice was low and slow, chilling:
"This is not a mourning hall. If you want to cry, go home and cry. I still need to go out."
Yu Ying wiped her tears, ran to pick up the bag, and whispered:
"Let's go quickly. Boss Shi still needs to go out and collect the bodies. Let's not make trouble here."
Lu Liuhai released the coffin and stood up with a sad face: "Qi'er, big brother will take you home right away."
A moment later, a group of people carrying the coffin walked away amidst the flying paper money.
Xiang Sheng didn't look at it any further and dragged the empty coffin out.
It's not often that you come across a newly dead body. This time, Xiang Sheng searched for two days and one night before he found one, which he dragged back to his residence the next morning.
This goes on and on without a break, and in the blink of an eye another year has passed.
This year, Yu Ying brought people here several times.
However, these people were not as lucky as Lu Liuhai, and none of them found the bodies of their relatives with Xiang Sheng.
However, Yu Ying felt that for them, no news was not necessarily a bad thing.
The following year, Xiang Sheng put away the inheritance tower.
Yu Ying happened to come over and saw this. She immediately took a few quick steps to Xiang Sheng and said with a look of melancholy:
"Boss Shi, you're leaving after only two years this time?"
Xiang Sheng nodded slightly and explained: "There is no suitable body for this fragment."
Yu Ying didn't know what she meant by "a suitable corpse", so she didn't ask any more questions and just sighed sadly:
"Now that you're gone, I don't know how many years it will take for us to meet again."
Xiang Sheng himself has no answer to this question.
She was silent for a while, then said, "See you again if we're lucky."
After saying that, she left without waiting for Yu Ying to speak again.
The Heavenly Demon Kingdom is not like the small world in the master's remains. Even if it is broken into hundreds of continents, it still belongs to the upper realm and is full of immortal spirit energy.
The cultivation level of the human race here will not be lower than the Jindan stage since birth, and as they grow older, their cultivation level will naturally improve even if they do not practice any mental methods.
Moreover, after the annihilation of the Celestial Demon Clan, the human race lived better for a long time, and no longer suffered from the brutal slaughter of the Celestial Demons.
Yu Ying is a descendant of the slaves of the Tianyao people. She is still very young and has cultivated a good mental method. She can live for many years.
However, Xiang Sheng knew that the life and death energy accumulated in her hands was far from enough, and she would need to stay here for a long time.
They will have the opportunity to meet again in the future.
A month later, Xiang Sheng came to another large piece of land fragment.
Xiang Sheng had only been to this continent once, eighty years ago.
Although the time interval was quite long, when the stone tower fell to the same location outside the small town, the news of the appearance of the corpse collector in the stone tower spread quickly through word of mouth.
In less than a moment, a large group of people swarmed in, all looking for their relatives.
Xiang Sheng worked for two whole days, handed over forty-six bodies, and finally sent everyone away, regaining peace.
After a short rest, she dragged the empty coffin out again.
There are obviously many more monks active on this continent than before.
Xiang Sheng had just arrived at the battlefield for a short while when he found a suitable corpse and headed back.
Three months passed, and she collected all the corpses outside the battlefield, a total of 167 corpses, a considerable harvest.
The next day, Xiang Sheng dragged the empty coffin towards the inner area of the battlefield.
However, just as he pushed aside a bunch of blood-stained weeds, he saw a young man in white clothes, covered in blood, lying on his back in a pool of blood, his breath weak, almost non-existent.
