C1 Exhumation

Mountain City, built on a mountain. The two rivers intersected and the waters were developed.

I, Ye Zhe, am the mountain city's mortician.

Corpsetaker is an old trade, eating dead people. Not only had it been glorious before, but it had always carried a mysterious color. Outsiders talked about it enthusiastically, but these past few years had been getting more and more sluggish. I pushed the lighter out of the way and paddled to the middle of the water. I stood up and looked around at my few companions.

And I was the only one of them.

It's a strange thing for a girl to do, and I'm doing it for money! I've always believed in money! If you don't have it, then don't talk about it!

The wind chimes that were tied to the stern quivered, and the octagonal mirror shook slightly. The reflected sunlight fell on my face, making my eyes hurt. Just now, we took a big order to help a middle-aged uncle find his drowning daughter.

"Over there." The old horse in the next boat suddenly exclaimed, and a few nearby mortician's boats also came closer.

Following the old horse's hand, there was a floating corpse floating on the surface of the water. It was facing upwards and was wearing white clothes. Its body was swollen and it floated shakily.

I went down and swallowed.

The structure of the female pelvis was different from that of the male, so it was also drowned. The female corpse was facing up, while the male body was facing up, using the jargon "the man is on the ground, the girl is on the ground". There are, of course, more detailed methods of identification, all taught to me by my grandfather.

My grandpa knows the Wind Water Ghost Society, and he was once a famous corpse picker in this water area. However, it is said that not only did he pick up corpses, but he also knows how to catch ghosts and ghosts. He taught me a lot of the skills of a pervert, but I only played around and didn't get it in my heart.

But that's enough.

We called in the employer, who immediately fell to his knees and wailed, "That's my daughter! Cold in the water, you guys do your best to save her. "

As she spoke, the floating corpse slightly trembled.

The floating corpse, which was originally lying on the ground, actually stood up under our watchful eyes!

She was floating with her head up and her body down!

A few surrounding morticians were frightened out of their wits, and they actually backed away from the boat. Even Old Ma, who had followed his grandfather for many years and had seen much of the world, was scared to the point that his face turned ashen.

"I can't get it, I can't get it, this is too fierce." The fact that the corpse had suddenly stood up meant that there was a grievance. We can only save the corpses and not the grievances, we will be punished! "

Old Ma's words may have sounded absurd, but it's a rule that has been passed down in our business for thousands of years. He didn't know when it started, but there was a tradition of not picking up corpses.

The surrounding corpse boats had all retreated, leaving only the one opposite me. His ship had the poor employer kneeling on it, the man frantically looked at the ship leaving in all directions, begging, "I beg you, don't go, I beg you to come back, I'll add more, I'll add a lot of money …"

The mountain city in the middle of summer, the weather was like a furnace. The food would soon turn sour if it was placed outside, not to mention the floating corpses floating in the water. The stench of the dead came in waves, making it hard for me to open my eyes. I also planned to turn around and leave …

"One hundred thousand! I bid one hundred thousand!"

The man suddenly roared, his eyes wide and round, "You just have to go down there and fish the corpse out. 100,000 is 100,000, I'll give it to you without batting an eyelid!"

"Deal."

After a while, I replied.

I need money, I need a lot of money. Maybe it's because I pitied him for losing his daughter, or maybe it's because of the money, I agreed.

The bell that was tied to the stern of the ship, which was usually used to divine good fortune, was shaking from side to side in excitement.
