Chapter 225 That 'I' is Gone



The body couldn't be lifted?

Upon hearing this, Su Mingyang and I exchanged a glance.

During my time working at the funeral home, although we only had a superficial understanding of the profound Taoist culture, we were not completely ignorant of it after being exposed to it.

There are usually only two situations where a body cannot be lifted.

From a scientific perspective, it may be because the body underwent rigor mortis, where muscles stiffened and contracted, and joints became difficult to move, making it extremely difficult to move.

This saying has been circulating in this funeral home for a long time.

If a person dies with resentment or bitterness, their body may exhibit unusual behavior, such as resisting being moved, as if some unseen force is preventing it.

Just two minutes later, Old Zhang came running out of the morgue, panting, and shouted at Su Mingyang.

"Old Su, come quick and help!"

Upon hearing this, Su Mingyang subconsciously took a step back, his face filled with reluctance.

"You can't move it even if there are several of you?"

Old Zhang wiped the large beads of sweat from his forehead and muttered under his breath, "This is fucking weird. The body is like it's rooted to the spot; we can't lift it up no matter what!"

Just then, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class and a minivan sped by.

The Mercedes-Benz G-Class was parked imposingly to the side. The door opened, and Luo Tianhe jumped out of the car.

He was still wearing a hat and mask, completely covering his face.

As soon as Luo Tianhe jumped down, the van door was flung open with a "whoosh".

A dozen or so thugs, armed with sticks and steel pipes, filed down the stairs, looking menacing.

I spotted A Biao immediately; he was standing in the crowd with a fierce look on his face.

When Old Zhang saw so many people jumping off the car so aggressively, he was stunned. His mouth was wide open and his eyes were wide open. He was obviously frightened by the scene and his body shrank back involuntarily.

Luo Tianhe rushed over and asked anxiously, "Where is the other one?"

I pointed to morgue number three: "It's inside."

At this moment, Su Mingyang looked timidly at Luo Tianhe and whispered, "Brother Luo?"

Luo Tianhe was also surprised to see Su Mingyang there: "You're here too? Wu Zhiguo didn't do anything to you? I thought you were dead!"

After saying that, he stepped forward and hugged Su Mingyang tightly, patting his back as if to confirm that he was really safe and sound.

I looked at Ah Biao and asked, "Jin Ye didn't run away, did he?"

Ah Biao shook his head and chuckled, "Don't worry, Brother Chen, Big Bear and Mouse are watching. That old guy's 'lychee' got crushed, he can barely walk, let alone run."

As he spoke, he took out his phone and made a video call to Haozi.

When the call connected, I saw in the video that Jin Ye was naked and tied to a chair, his hair was messy, and his face was covered in bruises.

Seeing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon closer inspection, Jinye had several new injuries.

It's obvious that Big Bear gave him some "special treatment" again.

I took my phone and explained the situation to Mr. Jin.

"Mr. Jin, do you know about Xishan Funeral Home?"

Jin Ye was probably terrified of being beaten; his eyes were filled with fear, which he made no attempt to hide.

"Xishan Funeral Home is Wu Zhiguo's property."

Before I could ask my second question, Luo Tianhe suddenly snatched the phone and loudly questioned me.

"Old man, let me ask you, since Xishan Funeral Home is Wu Zhiguo's property, why did he bring that woman's body to Qinglongshan Funeral Home for disposal in the first place?"

Mr. Jin shuddered in fright and quickly explained, "Because the crematoriums at Qingshan Funeral Home are different, and that night someone came to Xishan Funeral Home..."

At this point, Mr. Jin raised his head and gestured towards the ceiling with his lip.

It means the people above.

"So Wu Zhiguo was afraid that things would be exposed, so he sent the body to Qinglongshan Funeral Home."

I then asked, "Why did they take Li Hui's body to the Xishan Funeral Home?"

After a moment of silence, Jin slowly uttered three words: "Sanjiapo!"

Hearing those three words, my heart sank.

Just as I suspected, they were going to send Li Hui to Sanjiapo to be turned into a corpse demon.

I don't know what's so special about Li Hui that he has to be sent to Xishan Funeral Home.

Or is it that any young and strong man will be sent to Sanjiapo to build up Wu Zhiguo's fighting force?

I was just about to ask what happened with the "two me's" when Old Wang suddenly ran out of the morgue, shouting, "What's going on? Weren't we told to go in and help? What happened..."

Before he could finish speaking, Old Wang saw the dozen or so of us and froze.

I winked at Luo Tianhe: "Let's go in and take a look."

Seeing this, Old Wang quickly stepped forward to stop us, stammering, "They're moving a body inside right now. According to regulations, outsiders aren't allowed in..."

Luo Tianhe didn't even glance at him, shoved Old Wang aside, and led his men straight toward the No. 3 morgue.

Su Mingyang and I exchanged a glance and hurriedly followed.

At this moment, the door to morgue number three was half-open, and a sinister aura wafted out from inside.

Luo Tianhe stood at the door, paused, and turned to ask me.

"Old Chen, besides you, who else is inside?"

I said there were only two body transporters from Xishan Funeral Home, around fifty years old.
