Chapter 24 If you don’t commit suicide, you will die.
When the fat platoon leader heard that he had to take a real corpse out of the city, he refused without a second thought: "No."

"No, it's very difficult. There are soldiers checking in and out of the city gates. We brought five bodies when we came here, and it will be difficult to explain if we bring one more body when we leave." The thin Aying also followed the platoon leader's words and rejected the master's request.

They are not real corpse drivers and have no way of making the corpses move on their own. It would be easy for them to rashly agree to take the corpses out of the city, but they would be dumbfounded when they reached the checkpoint at the city gate.

If their true identities were discovered by the soldiers guarding the city, they would be dead.

Faced with the two people's rejection, the lawyer took out a half-full purse from his waist and placed it next to the thin man Aying.

"Why not? This matter is very simple. The two Taoist priests can just take him away."

Looking at the purse, the fat platoon leader's psychological defenses were shaken a little. All the money of the seven of them had been used to buy opium paste, and now they really didn't have much money.

The prices at Yong'an Inn were so high that he had no money to buy anything good.

If he could take on this business that came to him, he and his group wouldn't have to worry about accommodation, food and drink in the short term.

But considering the goods that his group was carrying, the fat platoon leader hesitated again.

People in their line of work are most afraid of complications: "It's really not possible. You know, every industry has its own rules. If you want to avoid trouble, you have to follow the rules. It's not as easy as you think."

After thinking it over again and again, the fat platoon leader chose to refuse.

But what he didn't know was that his struggle when he saw the purse had already been seen by Old Master Miao who was sitting by the door.

The extremely smart Old Master Miao immediately saw the greed in the fat platoon leader's eyes.

In order to avoid any more trouble, Old Master Miao stood up and walked to the table of the platoon leader and threw a bulging bag of money into his hand.

"My brother is at the door, you can do whatever you want."

After spending all the money, Old Master Miao turned around and left.

If these two Taoists were sensible, it would be good for you, for me, and for everyone else.

If they don't know what's best for them, there are plenty of people in Ma Xiangping who will teach them.

So what if he lives in Yong'an Inn? No one in Ma Xiangping can go against his ideas.

After watching Old Master Miao and the lawyer leave Yong'an Inn, the fat platoon leader picked up two money bags, weighed them, and roughly estimated the price of this business.

Two hundred eagle dollars.

They can earn so much just by taking a corpse out of the city and finding a place to bury it. If they really didn't have the skill of corpse-driving, the fat platoon leader would have thought of changing his career at this moment.

"Aying, what are you still standing there for? Go out and invite Old Master Miao's brother to our room." Seeing the thin Aying staring at the purse in his hand, the fat platoon leader immediately put both purses into his arms.

He certainly couldn't keep all this money by himself, but if he handled it properly, it wouldn't be difficult for him to embezzle a few dollars.

We have to get Aying out of the way first and not let him know how much money is in the two purses.

Aying is not stupid. He has followed the platoon leader for so long, how could he not know who the platoon leader is?

But people under the eaves have to bow their heads.

He relies on following the platoon leader's footsteps and acting as his dog every day. Everyone else in the team has to jump around like zombies, but he doesn't.

If he offended the platoon leader because of money, he would suffer in the future: "I'll go move the bodies now, platoon leader, you have so much money now, can we stop eating noodles and steamed buns every day, and eat some meat occasionally so that we have the strength to continue our journey."

Aying didn't dare to ask for more, but he still dared to seek food benefits for the whole team.

"Got it, got it. Go and ask Old Master Miao's brother to come into the room."

Seeing that the platoon leader agreed to her request, Ah Ying happily went outside, picked up a corpse wrapped in white linen, and walked into Yong'an Inn.

What he didn't know was that the moment he stepped into the threshold of Yong'an Inn holding the corpse, many guests in the backyard were instantly awakened.

In the room where Ding Hai and the other two lived, Lin Jiu suddenly stood up and looked towards the front lobby. "Such a strong evil spirit, Brother Ding, can you feel it? Someone brought a corpse that was about to turn into a zombie into the inn!"

On the other bed, Ding Hai, who had just used the Sky Eye Technique to observe the lobby and knew what had just happened, did not tell Lin Jiu what he saw through his spiritual sense.

"Go to sleep. This is Yong'an Inn. If something really happens, we shouldn't be the ones who are most anxious.

It's just the evil spirit of the corpse. It's just one of the conditions for the corpse to transform. Even if you really want to do something, you have to wait until the corpse transforms."

Lin Jiu took Ding Hai's words to heart. This was the Yong'an Inn. After something dirty got into the inn, the people who were most anxious should not be outsiders like them.

It is unacceptable to destroy a human corpse for no reason. If the corpse that was just brought into the inn does not come back to life, Lin Jiu will be powerless to do anything.

In the northwest corner of the courtyard where the lights were turned off, the old shopkeeper and his wife, who had just been flirting with each other, stood up at the same time and looked towards the lobby.

Veins bulged on the forehead of the proprietress who brought her own oversized white steamed bun.

"Who, who is trying to put pressure on me at this critical moment?" the proprietress growled in frustration.

Others may not know, but she, the real person in charge of Yong'an Inn, must know. The Yong'an Inn, where good and bad people are mixed together, is now like a pot of boiling oil, and any spark can detonate all the tenants with bad intentions.

Now, someone brought a dead body into the inn that could come back to life at any time.

Once the corpse comes back to life, it is very likely to cause the entire Yong'an Inn to explode in an instant, just like water splashing into a frying pan.

This is the situation that the proprietress and the old shopkeeper are trying their best to avoid.

Before they can figure out the details of Ding Hai and Lin Jiu, the two powerful men who have come from outside the country, the lady boss and the old shopkeeper will never allow the situation to get out of control.

Seeing the proprietress who was about to explode with anger, the old shopkeeper gently patted her beautiful back without a trace of fat with his skinny palm, signaling her to be patient and calm down first.

After the proprietress's breathing stabilized, the old shopkeeper ignored the two pink plum blossoms growing on the top of the mountain that kept jumping in front of him, and analyzed it by himself: "Master, there is no need to be too angry.

There are all kinds of people in our inn now, and it is not surprising that they do anything, including the Eight Evils of Lingnan, the Changsheng Mountain in western Hunan, the elusive Wang family, and the group of local robbers who came from Changsha.

The Moon Gate of the Colorful Opera Troupe, the one-eyed Taoist priest from Pucheng, and the two dragons that have crossed the river but have yet to show their tracks.

With so many people gathered together, it would be surprising if nothing unexpected happened. In my opinion, there is no need for us to be too angry."

After hearing what the old shopkeeper said, the landlady felt a little relieved.

“Besides, although something unexpected happened tonight, we still gained something.

Neither the hyenas digging for food in the soil nor the warlocks showed up tonight.

What does this mean? It means that they are actually wary of each other, and no one wants to be the first to take action. "

"That is to say, before the discovery of the Min King's Tomb, these people are actually 'controllable', and we still have plenty of time to prepare," realizing this, the proprietress's tense face immediately relaxed a lot.

To be honest, she felt a little regretful.

Twenty days ago, if I hadn't ganged up on my fellow thieves and killed those horse bandits sent by Changsheng Mountain to explore the way, how nice it would have been to live my own life in peace!

But when she thought that the clues in her hands involved a royal tomb, the greed in her heart overwhelmed her reason.

She had run an inn for decades, but the money she had accumulated over the years was no match for any of the treasures in the royal mausoleum.

What God does not take, is to be blamed.

After comforting herself, the proprietress took advantage of the old shopkeeper's back and gave him a vicious look.

If this piece of trash had not revealed her flaws when she went to Pucheng to sell the treasures she had stolen from the horse bandits, and her origins had not been discovered, how could she have attracted so many hungry wolves?

In that case, when the full moon night comes, she will be able to take all the treasures in a royal tomb for herself.

Thinking that she still needed this useless piece of trash who had been drained of blood by her, and that she needed to stand in the open to attract the attention of those hungry wolves and create a chance for herself to escape on the full moon night ten days later, the proprietress immediately entangled herself with him with her seductive eyes again.

Since I'm already awake, I might as well continue to recycle the waste and absorb some more Yang energy.

I recently developed a wrinkle at the corner of my eye. This is not good. Without this body that is as beautiful as the White Jade Guanyin, how can I attract men to give everything for me?

So, Aying successfully returned to the room where they lived, carrying the corpse that almost detonated the entire Yong'an Inn.

During this period, Ah Ying, who was born slow-witted, was completely unaware of the hidden swordplay.

Ding Hai, who was lying on the bed and watching the whole process with his spiritual sense, could only say: Fools have good fortune.

If any of the forces had not been able to hold back and started fighting just now, the first person to die would definitely have been Ah Ying, who was holding the corpse.

Even if he managed to escape the first round of attacks with smoke rising from his ancestral grave, the corpses around Aying would tear him to pieces in an instant.

Lin Jiu was not wrong. The corpse that Aying was holding was on the verge of resurrection. Once it was exposed to blood or evil spirits, it would immediately explode.

At that time, whoever is next to it will be its first target of attack.

After watching the show, Ding Hai pulled up the quilt and fell asleep. There was still some singing to do in the scene at Yong'an Inn, so there was no need to be on guard every day and make himself nervous.

According to Ding Hai's observations over the past two days, none of the main and supporting characters gathered in Yong'an Inn could beat him.

Even if Lin Jiu is prepared, he can easily defeat all of them.

If that’s the case, why bother being so nervous and on guard here and there?

Isn't that just asking for trouble?

After a good night's sleep, Ding Hai felt more energetic when he woke up the next day.

After determining that this drama would probably continue for some time, Ding Hai did not continue to wait in the lobby of Yong'an Inn, but took Lin Jiu to visit Maxiangping not far away, to experience the local customs and have a great day.
