Chapter 703: Lao Zhang
As these shadows were searching, a figure slowly walked forward.
The figure was quite tall and held a cane in his hand.
The top of the cane is snow-white, like jade, and emits a little fluorescence.
At one end of the cane is a skull.
At first glance, it looks extremely ferocious and terrifying.
"Um…"
Coming to the side of the corpses and bones, the figure groaned, "What's going on?"
"Have you found any traces?!"
The figure's voice was low and hoarse, as if it had been burned by fire.
Just hearing it makes one's scalp tingle.
"Reporting to the Great Wizard..."
After hearing what the figure said, one of the shadows said, "This mass grave is full of corpse energy, and no one is using it to raise corpses..."
"Moreover, there are mostly maggots and ants in the soil, but no corpse-controlling worms!"
"What!?"
As soon as these words came out, the great wizard's voice rose eight degrees: "There is plenty of corpse qi, how is it possible!?"
"The Blood Corpse Pagoda and the Corpse Controlling Worm both need corpse qi to nourish them..."
"Otherwise, at best you will turn into a corpse, at worst you will turn into a zombie!"
"This is the largest mass grave in Jinling City. How could he not use the corpse energy here?!"
"Is he really not afraid that the Blood Corpse Pagoda will be destroyed by him?!"
As he spoke, the great wizard's voice was filled with anger.
When these words were spoken, the other black shadows were stunned and looked quite afraid.
"Will it be..."
At this time, a dark figure slowly spoke and whispered: "The spy's information is wrong..."
"That person is not in Jinling?"
"impossible!"
After hearing the words of the black shadow, the great wizard snorted coldly and said, "My information will definitely not be wrong..."
"Send out the carrion-eating butterflies and expand the search area!"
"Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we will find them!"
"Especially the Blood Corpse Pagoda and the Blood Poison Silkworm Pupa, I must get them!"
As soon as he said this, the great wizard slammed his cane hard.
A faint green light emanated from his eyes.
At first glance, it gives people an extremely terrifying feeling.
Um!?
At this moment, the great wizard only felt a strange feeling coming from behind him.
This feeling was like a thorn in his back, making him feel dangerous.
"who!?"
He exclaimed, turned around suddenly and looked behind him.
But what he saw behind him was a desolate and vast landscape with crows circling around him, which seemed quite depressing.
In the distance, the branches of a tall tree were shaking, as if someone had once stood there.
Seeing this, the great wizard narrowed his eyes.
A gleam of brilliance shone from it.
…
The next day at noon, Zuixianlou.
Wang Ye carried a pot of old wine and a bag of mutton and went straight to Lao Zhang's coffin shop.
Old Zhang's job is to prepare coffins and bury corpses, and he doesn't like to interact with others on weekdays.
But because of his superb technique, the dead people often appear lifelike after being arranged by him.
As a result, although he had few interactions with others, everyone respected him.
Lao Zhang's coffin shop is located in a relatively quiet street in Jinling City.
As soon as Wang Ye arrived at the door of the coffin shop, he saw Lao Zhang drinking tea from a teapot.
He is tall and has fair skin.
Although he is a bit old, he looks much younger than his peers.
"Hey, Lao Zhang is drinking tea!"
Looking at Lao Zhang in front of him, Wang Ye smiled slightly and said, "Is business going well recently?"
"You are a money-grubber!"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Lao Zhang rolled his eyes and said, "You asked this question..."
"How do you want me to reply?"
After hearing these words, Wang Ye was stunned.
Damn…
Sloppy...
The success of Lao Zhang's business depends entirely on the dead.
If the business is good, it means many people will die and others will be unhappy.
If there were no dead people, Lao Zhang’s business would not work...
When saying hello, you hit the horse's hoof. This is so embarrassing. He was so embarrassed that he cried. It was so embarrassing!
“That’s enough!”
Just when Wang Ye was helpless, Lao Zhang said quietly: "If you have something to say, just tell me..."
"Who died in your inn?"
???
After hearing these words, Wang Ye was stunned.
Good boy…
Old Zhang's grandson had just said that he couldn't speak, and immediately asked such a question.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
You're not intending to take revenge, are you?
"No one died!"
Thinking of this, Wang Ye looked at Old Zhang in front of him.
"Why are you coming to my coffin shop when no one is dead?"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Lao Zhang narrowed his eyes and asked, "Choose a coffin for yourself in advance?"
I'm so...
This old coffin guy's words are really amazing! He has never been beaten! Thinking of this, Wang Ye took a deep breath and smoothed his chest.
How much is your temper worth? The most important thing is to ask for clues about Jiledong.
Thinking of this, Wang Ye said, "Hey, Lao Zhang, you really can't talk..."
"No wonder you don't have a wife!"
"I just brought some things to see you because I thought you were lonely here alone!"
"Forget it!"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Lao Zhang waved his hand: "I know all too well what you, Wang Caimi, are thinking..."
"Nothing is gained without profit, and money attracts the eye!"
"You came to see me with wine and meat, you must have something to ask for!"
"If you have something to say, then don't waste your time talking nonsense!"
As he spoke, Lao Zhang's face was full of indifference.
“Hehehe…”
Seeing that Lao Zhang had made his point clear, Wang Ye smiled slightly and said, "I really do have something to ask you for help!"
He lowered his voice a bit and asked, "Have you been to a mass grave recently?"
As soon as these words came out, Lao Zhang's body stiffened slightly.
There was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
The feeling of surprise flashed by, but it did not escape Wang Ye's eyes.
He was immediately delighted.
I originally wanted to ask Lao Zhang for some clues.
But it looks like there is something good in this old coffin!
“Never been there…”
After a brief moment of daze, Lao Zhang said, "Mass graves are where the government handles unidentified corpses..."
"What am I going to do when I have nothing to do?"
At this point, Lao Zhang raised his eyebrows and asked back: "You Wang Caimi, why don't you manage the inn well..."
"Why do you ask that?"
"Nothing?"
After hearing what Lao Zhang said, Wang Ye pretended to be relaxed and said, "I heard that someone was wielding a hoe at a mass grave outside the city..."
"I wonder if there are any treasures in that mass grave..."
"So I came over to ask you, to see if you know anything or not?"
As he spoke, Wang Ye's face was full of smirks.
"Wang Caimi, you are really crazy about money..."
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Lao Zhang said, "They are beginning to disturb the attention of the grave mound..."
"The mass graves are full of beheaded criminals and nameless bodies..."
"It's good enough to have a tattered straw mat to wrap the body, and it's a treasure..."
As he spoke, Lao Zhang revealed a look of contempt.
"That's really strange..."
Hearing this, Wang Ye scratched his head and said to himself, "If there is no treasure, why would the people in Jiledong dig it up?"
As he spoke, Wang Ye emphasized the three words "Jiledong".
At the same time, he secretly observed Lao Zhang's expression.
