Chapter 53.
The bald man didn’t seem to believe his eyes and rubbed them hard.
Danger?
Where was the danger that was just there?
Where did it go?
He didn’t dare to be sure, and at the end, added.
“Where is the danger ……?”
Zhou An laughed, “I still want to ask you where the danger is? You suddenly came to a sentence that this place is dangerous, it seems that you know something?”
The bald man hurriedly waved his hand, “Sorry, I came to the wrong place, the boiling water in my house is about to boil, I have to hurry back, I’ll leave first.”
After saying that, he was ready to leave.
But before he could take two steps out, a snowy blade light surfaced, grazed his ear, and didn’t enter the woods in front of him.
A dozen or so trees snapped with a sound, the cuts neatly made.
Highly skilled!
A drop of cold sweat flowed down from the bald man’s head, and he turned around quickly, “Lord Sheriff, I just came over to earn a little money, I don’t have bad intentions, don’t get me.”
He wimped out quickly, a strong contrast to his brawny figure.
This was also something that couldn’t be helped.
A county constable had the ability to turn a blade into a line.
No.
It is not just a line!
With this power, I’m afraid that an ordinary third-rate expert wouldn’t be able to chop it.
He had only come over to get some money, how did he get into such a mess?
“Money?” Zhou An narrowed his eyes, “Tell me.”
A bald man appearing in the middle of the night was suspicious in itself.
What’s more, the bald man said a whole lot of things.
The bald man hurriedly said, “My name is Feng Ye, I’m a corpse fisherman, someone gave me money to fish for corpses here, so I came over.”
A corpse fetcher?
Zhou An’s hand with the knife was steady, “Miscellaneous Sect?”
Inside the four major sects, the Miscellaneous Sect was considered the most numerous and complicated.
Anything that was not categorized by the first three doors could be counted in.
A line of work like corpse fetcher should also belong to the miscellaneous sect.
Feng Ye nodded his head quickly, “Yes, my lord, I’m just a corpse salvager who collects money to do his job, and I came over to specialize in fishing for some corpses, and I don’t know what’s going to happen!”
There was only one way for people to be born, but there were all kinds of deaths.
The superposition of various accidents caused a thousand strange deaths.
Among them drowning is the most difficult to deal with.
After a person’s death it was all about getting into the ground, and drowned people sank to the bottom of the river, making it impossible for an ordinary person to salvage them.
Can’t wait for the body to swell and float up, then it is meaningless to bury them in the ground.
That’s why the body fishers came into being.
Ordinary people go down to the river to fish for corpses, it is likely that nothing can be found.
The reason was simple.
Drowned people are greatly tortured, easy to become bizarre, after becoming bizarre, it will blind the ordinary people’s vision.
Corpse fishers were different.
They had the unique ability to find their way precisely even in the dark river, and were more than capable of dodging spooky attacks in the river.
Corpse collectors collect money to do this kind of thing.
But within this profession, there are mixed reviews.
Some corpse fishers were very positive, charging as much money to do as much work as possible, but some of the corpse fishers would appear to be holding the corpse for ransom.
“I really don’t know! I received the money just a few days ago, and I don’t even know who the person who paid me was, so he asked me to come here to fish for corpses, and I’m just eating bowls of hard-earned money, my lord, what’s going on here really has nothing to do with me.”
Feng Ye was still complaining.
Zhou An heard the doorway.
A few days ago, he had collected money to come over to fish for corpses, but only yesterday did the situation of the missing child occur.
In other words, the person who paid the money had already anticipated it.
In other words, the person who paid was most likely the one who committed the crime.
The most crucial thing was that Feng Ye did not even know who paid.
Zhou An stroked his chin, “Fish!”
Feng Ye froze.
What the hell?
Fishing?
Zhou An saw Feng Ye’s thoughts and nodded, “Receiving money and not doing anything? Just fish here.”
Creepy was a man who did not recognize people.
Don’t look at the fact that Creepy was not coming out inside the river now, but this would come back with a vengeance sooner or later.
Zhou An was not someone who was so easily subject to retaliation.
The Beast Cult Master got him.
He would rather expose his identity than get the Beast Sect Master killed.
Only by getting rid of all hidden dangers could he develop quietly.
To get him, he fished out Creepy to get him!
Creepy is hiding in the river, he can’t get in.
With a body-snatcher, it’s all a matter of course.
And it would be nice to see what the guy who paid for it really thought.
“Really fishing ah ……”
Feng Ye was helpless.
Although he was receiving money to do a job, this was really the first time he had encountered this situation.
Fishing for a corpse in front of the constable?
Will I be arrested?
I still want to save money to get a daughter-in-law ……
Although his heart was spitting, Feng Ye couldn’t do anything about it.
The opponent’s long knife was right here, so he might as well slash down.
The corpse fetcher had combat power, but it was all in the water.
On the shore ……
Forget about it.
What’s more, he didn’t dare to make a move.
He is just a muckraker, what is the point of offending the officials?
Anyway, it is all about making money!
After figuring it out, Feng Ye didn’t say much.
Behind him, there was a bundle, which he opened up, revealing what was inside.
Inside was a wooden stick, and a paper boat.
Zhou An was also curious, after all, this was the first time he had seen a corpse raider.
Feng Ye came to the shore and poked the water with the wooden stick.
The wooden stick quickly turned black, and a cloud of black gas even emerged.
“Hiss–”
Feng Ye sucked in a breath of cool air, “What a strong resentment, my lord, a big case is happening here, right?”
“What makes you think so?” Zhou An asked.
Feng Ye pointed at the wooden stick and explained, “This wooden stick of ours is one of the tools of a corpse fetcher, it can detect the level of grievances on the surface of the water, the wooden stick turns black when it enters the water, the grievances are not too deep, and definitely a lot of people have died.”
Zhou An did not say anything.
But the significance was already self-evident.
Feng Ye scratched his head awkwardly.
He also knew that he had asked what he shouldn’t have.
“Can it be fished?” Zhou An asked.
Feng Ye nodded: “Can can can, we can also solve the weirdness in the water by the way, to say that when it comes to the water, then our corpse fetcher can be considered a masterpiece.”
Zhou An also felt surprised.
This guy looked weak, but he didn’t expect to be able to solve the weirdness in the water.
Thinking about it carefully, it was actually right.
Dealing with water, you want him to be strong on the shore.
Wouldn’t that be bullshit?
“My lord, later on, I’ll enter the river by boat, find a place with shallow grievances, and dive into the water.”
Feng Ye’s face became serious.
“In one pillar of incense time, if I don’t make it to the shore, please quickly report it to the officials, and get stronger corpse retrievers to come over.”
This was also the rules of the trade for corpse retrievers.
If you take the money, then you need to do it.
If you don’t do it, you need to return the money.
What they did in this line of work was dirty work and playing with their lives.
Feng Ye felt that he should be able to do it, there were risks, but the risks could be tolerated.
“Boat?” Zhou An pointed at the palm-sized paper boat, “You mean to take this?”
“That’s right.”
When it came to professionalism, Feng Ye also got professional.
He came to the riverside, placed the paper boat on the surface of the river, and recited a passage ……
