Reunion with the Old Corpse

Uncle Chengsu led his comrades in dividing into squads and launching the mission. Jiang Qyun drifted into the building and opened a small door from inside.

This building is seven stories high and has one elevator.

I don't know if there are any "living people" in this building. We didn't take the elevator, but instead stuck to the stairs to check out the second floor.

My uncle gave my brother and me a communication device. This kind of thing isn't something ordinary people can handle, so the three of us went in first while he finished up with his comrades.

According to the photos and information provided by the police and security guards, the first floor is used for parking transport vehicles and raising fish in ponds. The second floor houses offices such as the finance department, and the floors above are all freezers.

Here, everything is related to the seafood industry. The air is filled with a salty and icy scent. I can't tell if there's also the smell of decay. Freshly frozen seafood has a strong odor anyway.

This company doesn't have much business. The security guard said they ship goods out once or twice a month. They checked for fire safety issues half a month ago and didn't find anything unusual about the company.

Later, the man in the photo went on a trip to the ancient town with his girlfriend and stayed at Mr. Xiao Wang's place for four days. After returning, he said he felt something was wrong, his shoulders were stiff and inflexible, and his girlfriend also said that his eyes looked straight. Then he began to ask Mr. Xiao Wang for compensation.

Never had she heard of such a thing happening when staying at a hotel. Teacher Xiao Wang thought the other party was taking advantage of her newly opened shop and trying to blackmail her, so she didn't take it seriously until she received that photo which scared her half to death.

The photos also give us some clues. If the man in the photos is already a corpse, then who took the picture and sent it to Teacher Xiao Wang asking her for money

The biggest suspect is the boyfriend's girlfriend, the woman surnamed Tian. She kept a body and didn't report it to the police, and calmly took photos and extorted money. Is this woman mentally okay

We walked up the safety stairs to the second floor. There was a glass door on the second floor, behind which was an office area. Pushing open the glass door, we saw a small room inside with some fluorescence.

Under these circumstances, seeing the light made my whole body shiver. My brother, however, was still his fearless self. He bit on a copper talisman for protection, tightened his backpack, tucked a celestial sword into his waist, and held an electric baton in his hand.

This posture, it has a bit of the vibe of slaying demons and ghosts fearlessly. Doesn't matter if it's a walking corpse or an evil spirit, he'll give them both barrels.

Just before entering, I saw Jiang Qiyun pinch a lot of incantations. I don't know what kind of arrangement he made. He was very careful because his eyes had only just started to recover these past few days.

Although his mind was clear and did not affect his actions, a hint of doubt occasionally flickered in his deep eyes, which always caused a slight pain in my heart.

“Qiyun… be careful…” I whispered.

He squeezed my hand, reassuring me.

The little house with the fluorescent light seemed to be a guard post. The window had frosted glass on it, you could only see blue light inside, not sure if anyone was there, maybe some surveillance equipment was always on

If it weren't for a professional safe, I reckon my brother could have broken into it. After he pried open the peephole, he quietly pushed the door open and—

Inside there was a chair, and on the chair sat a man with his head hanging down.

It was the man surnamed Nie, his neck broken and his head lolling at an awkward angle against his chest.

My brother used the communication equipment to report to Uncle Chengsu, asking them to come upstairs and take the body away first.

Just as the connection was cut, a faint ringing sound suddenly came from the top of the stairs.

This is a sound we've all heard, the ringing of a bronze bell.

My older brother rushed over there in a flash. Jiang Qiyun reached out and grabbed me, saying, "Don't run, follow me and walk slowly."

Is this

…

so cumbersome

"You should still go and have a look. My brother can be very impulsive sometimes. I'll just follow you guys. If anything happens, you can turn around and see me."

“Okay.” He nodded and muttered a spell, summoning a strange creature to stay by my side.

That animal looked very strange, was it an underworld creature

This thing looks like a young calf, which reminds me of the ox-headed General who chops up demons at the gate of the Netherworld.

Jiang Qiyun rushed to my brother's place, this little calf followed me, step by step.

I take one step, it takes one step. I run two steps, and it runs two steps too.

This... this thing is kind of cute.

Since Jiang Qiyun appeared, my worldviews have been completely overturned. Finding the cute aspects in all sorts of ghosts and monsters isn't easy.

My brother chased the man up to the third floor. I heard his curses, and a bolt of lightning struck, shaking the floor beneath my feet.

I ran after him, and as I passed the last room, the door swung straight down. I dove forward and covered my head to avoid the sudden attack.

Looking at the two figures behind the door, my heart was pounding wildly.

What is the cycle of cause and effect

I wonder if it was arranged on purpose, or if the news just came too quickly.

The two people who appeared behind the door, I've seen them before...

I've not only seen them, but I also have a grudge against them.

Before we entered Huangdao Village, my brother and I ran into two men who claimed to be corpse-collectors, one short and the other thin.

They were pretending to be corpses, but when we approached, they bolted. They even injured my brother and tried to grab me. In the end, I summoned a small ghost catcher to imprison their souls.

I remember at the time their bodies were lying in the field overgrown with weeds, but now they are before me.

Looking back, they claimed to be corpse runners and said they were familiar with my brother's line of work. But when their "goods" turned out to be a fake, their first reaction was to run away… If they were truly corpse runners, they should have had a way to deal with a faked corpse, right

Their true identities should be those who refine corpses, I think. My brother tried to get information from them at the time, and they shook their heads naturally when asked about the Corpse Immortal Path.

At this point, the two had been fully exploited by their accomplices, becoming shriveled corpses. Their skin turned black, they possessed immense strength, and their breath reeked of bloodlust as they relentlessly pursued living humans.

This method of transporting corpses using frozen seafood probably serves the cannibals well. Like seafood, bodies also need to be rapidly frozen, so during long-distance transport, they just lay a thick layer of frozen seafood on top and use special vehicles to deliver them at the fastest speed possible to their mysterious village.

I held the thunderclap in both my hands and aimed it at the two zombies. They were knocked back at the door, then staggered towards me, following the scent of the living.

Their flesh was unnaturally shrunken, stretched taut over their skeletons, making them look like powerful skeletons.

The little calf beside me stretched its neck. I thought it would bellow in fright, but instead, it suddenly grew larger. After a cloud of white mist, its head was almost touching the ceiling!

The two corpses before it were like two sticks of dry wood.

That's really just two pieces of firewood!

It opened its mouth and bit down on the skinny zombie, with a "crack" sound, that skinny zombie was bitten in two.

The Corpse Refiner opened its mouth wide, its rows of white teeth horrifying to behold, as if letting out a pained roar. The thin man lying on the ground grabbed onto the calf's leg with his upper body and bit down hard!

The calf reared up on its hind legs and slammed the skinny man's upper body to the ground.

It lowered its head and, with a curved horn, rammed it into the skinny man's skull.er window. At the bottom of the slope, there was a shallow section of river. The last thing I saw was the car rolling and flipping into the river.At that moment, I seemed to hear a cry ripping through...
