My years as a corpse seamstress in the East Factory

Chapter 200

A gray-haired old man walked in quickly, smiling like a toad's trembling back.

This person is Cao Long.

Cao Jian stood up immediately, clasped his fists in salute, and said, "I have met the Patriarch."

"Cao Jian, there are distinguished guests at home, why didn't you serve a fruit plate?" Cao Long frowned and scolded in a cold voice.

Cao Jian hurriedly said, "I'll do it now."

"Bring the good wine that the old man treasured." Cao Long laughed and sat down.

Among the officials present, there was the arrester from the Six Doors, and the Mingwei from the Corpse Division, but the one sitting at the top was the corpse stitcher from the East Factory. Cao Long felt that this was very interesting.

After introducing each other, Cao Long cupped his fists towards Yang and said with a smile, "Master Yang is really young and promising."

"Patriarch Cao is also growing old and strong." Yang Jiu said.

Cao Long laughed out loud, noncommittal.

Cao Jian quickly brought snacks and a fruit plate, and he was holding a jar of wine.

You can smell the aroma of the wine even before it is opened.

Yang Jiudu is not an expert in drinking, so he can smell that this jar is really good wine.

The cold-blooded mouth moved, drooling from greed.

After the wine jar was unsealed, the aroma of the wine was overflowing, even the unfeeling who seldom drank alcohol wanted to have a sip.

Cao Long is a fine person, an absolute old fox, and he knows that someone must be greedy and not be tricked by this old fox.

Otherwise, even if Gongsun Qing leads the army, they will fall into Cao Long's hands.

Unfeeling subconsciously looked at Yang Jiu, wanting to see how Yang Jiu would respond next.

Since Cao Long came here, he must be ready to take action.

Don't look at eating snacks and drinking fine wine now, getting along very well with each other.

But things like this can happen anytime.

Cao Long poured wine for everyone himself, then picked up the wine bowl, and said with a smile: "My lords came to the humble house, it's really full of splendor, I respect you by doing it first."

Only Leng Xue raised his wine bowl, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Sensing Cao Long's gaze, Yang Jiu said with a smile, "I just got married, so drinking is not good for having children."

"That's right, that's the reason." Cao Long laughed.

Then Cao Long looked at Jueqing, but heard Jueqing say: "I'm not good at drinking, I get drunk when I eat."

Leng Xue almost blurted out that you are unfeeling, you will never pour a thousand cups.

Feng Bao also laughed and said, "I'm just like Mr. Rueqing, I can't handle alcohol."

"Master Leng-Blooded, come and come, they don't drink, this jar of good wine, you and I share." Cao Long gave a look, Cao Jian picked up the wine jar and poured wine for the two of them.

After drinking half a jar of wine, Cao Long's old face was also a little red from drinking.

The cold-blooded cheek is even more like a monkey's butt.

"Patriarch Cao, I can't do it, this wine is too strong, I can't drink it anymore." Leng Xue took the lead to admit defeat.

Cao Longdao: "It's really old. When I was young, this old man could drink up this pot by himself, and my mind is sober, without the slightest hint of drunkenness."

Before Gongsun Qing came back, Yang Jiu didn't plan to talk about serious business, but hoped that Leng Xue would accompany Cao Long to finish the wine.

Cao Long picked up a bowl of tea, looked at Yang Jiu again, and asked with a smile: "Master Yang, you are in such a big battle, why come to my Cao residence?"

Cao Long is cunning and cunning, although he is pretending to be relaxed here, in fact, he must have made arrangements in the dark.

Yang Jiu didn't hold back, and said with a smile: "I heard that Patriarch Cao's great method of summoning souls is unique in the martial arts. As a corpse maker, I often encounter corpses with signs of corpse transformation, and even encounter evil spirits, so I am very impressed by this technique." Interested, come here for advice.”

Cao Long's unique skill is the 28-way dragon-slaying sword technique, not the soul-calling method.

Jueqing and the others thought this way in their hearts, but they knew that Yang Jiu was actually trying to trick Cao Long by saying this.

When a master fights, victory or defeat is often just a thought away.

"Spirit calling?" Cao Long was full of surprise.

Yang Jiu smiled and said, "I know that in the backyard of Cao's house, there is a room where the beams are covered with human heads."

"Lord Yang, please don't joke. This old man has done his own business to save up such a huge family business. I would never dare to do illegal or evil things." Cao Long's expression was serious, full of righteousness.

Yang Jiu nodded slightly, and said, "I also believe Patriarch Cao is an upright person. If that's the case, can you take out the soul-calling flag for everyone to admire?"

"Banner?" Cao Long was confused.

Cao Jian stood beside him, clasping his hands together, feeling terrified.

From calling back souls to hanging human heads, and then to calling back souls, Yang Jiu just wanted to see Cao Long's reaction.

Cao Long's reaction was as if he was listening to a scripture, which was definitely a normal reaction that normal people can make.

If Cao Long is really a mourner, his behavior like this shows the cunning and strength of this old thing.

Yang Jiu smiled and said, "Patriarch Cao, I won't beat around the bush anymore. Yesterday, eight adults from Jinyiwei escorted Prince Ning's son back to Chang'an, but his head was beheaded outside Chang'an City. That man was wearing a black cloak. , wearing a ghost mask, holding a soul-calling banner, using puppetry to manipulate those corpses, and came to the six gates and Jinyiwei respectively, this person is you, right?"

"Haha, Mr. Yang is really good at making up stories." Cao Long naturally refused to admit it.

This is Chang'an City, and he still has a huge family business at hand. Once he is convicted of such a crime, everything will be over.

As long as you don't admit it, and the court can't find any evidence, after a few days of investigation, it will naturally give up.

Yang Jiu smiled lightly: "I believe Patriarch Cao knows if what I'm telling is a story or not."

"Lord Yang, please forgive the old man's harsh words. You said that the old man killed the man, do you have evidence?" Cao Long asked with a smile, not nervous at all.

Yang Jiu sighed, "If I have evidence, I would have come here in shackles today."

"Although the old man is a grassroots person, he is also a commoner of the Great Xia. Master Yang is so maliciously framed, does the sage know?" Cao Long spoke righteously, posing as if he was upright and not afraid of the shadow.

Yang Jiu stood up and asked with a smile, "Patriarch Cao, can I have a look around?"

"Your Majesty Yang, please go ahead." Cao Long did not refuse.

Leaving the living room, Yang Jiu walked to the backyard and went straight to the room where the head was hung.

At this moment, Gongsun Qing walked quickly from the side.

Seeing Gongsun Qing nodded slightly, Yang Jiu became more confident.

When I came to the small courtyard, I saw some plum trees were newly planted in the courtyard.

Weeds were also removed.

The door of the room where the head was hung before was open, and the inside was very clean.

Even Cao Jian was shocked when he saw this scene.

"Rou'er, we have guests." Entering the yard, Cao Long called into the house.

A girl walked out of the room, wearing a green long jacket, but her appearance was very ordinary.

But this girl is Cao Long's own daughter, Cao Rou.

Her eyebrows and eyes were carved out of the same mold as Cao Long's.

"Father, who are these?" Cao Rou looked at everyone suspiciously.

Cao Long smiled and introduced them one by one.

"Daughter Cao Rou, adults please greet me." Cao Rou bowed and saluted.

Yang Jiu had expected this to happen a long time ago, so she stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Miss Cao has been living here?"

"Yes, I've lived here as long as I can remember." Cao Rou replied with a smile.

Yang Jiu walked to the door of the room and asked, "Can I go in and have a look?"

"Lord Yang, this is my boudoir." Cao Rou said shyly.

Cao Long said with a smile: "Rou'er, if Master Yang wants to see it, let him see it. Is it possible that you can hide a man in your boudoir?"

"Father..." Cao Rou said angrily.

Walking into the room, it was very clean and elegant.

The beds and cabinets used are all old. It seems that Cao Rou has really lived here all the time.

"Master Yang, do you want me to accompany you to visit other places?" Cao Long asked with a smile at the door.

Yang Jiu sat down on Cao Rou's bed and said with a smile, "No need, I suddenly feel a little sleepy, can I sleep here?"

"Father..." Cao Rou was ashamed and annoyed.

She was still lying on that bed just now, Yang Jiu was really ashamed to do this.

Cao Long frowned and said, "Lord Yang, what exactly do you want?"

"Since Patriarch Cao is unwilling, forget it." Yang Jiu stood up while speaking, but did not leave the room.

There is a strong fragrance in this room, as if it has been sprayed on purpose to cover up other smells.

There are incense burners on the side of the window and the side of the bed.

This room is not big, with two incense burners burning, making the room so fragrant, can people really sleep well?

Besides, Cao's house is so big, Cao Rou, as a young lady of the Cao family, must at least live in a small building with a single courtyard.

Cao Long arranged his daughter here, but he could only hide it.

"Lord Yang, Minnv suddenly feels a little sleepy, please leave." Cao Rou rubbed her eyes and said.

Yang Jiu walked up to Cao Rou in a few steps, and stared at Cao Rou's eyes with a smile, making Cao Rou's heart flustered.

"Lord Yang, what are you looking at?" Cao Rou lowered her head and asked in a trembling voice.

Yang Jiu asked with a smile: "Miss Cao is not afraid of living in this room that used to be full of heads?"

"What head? Master Yang, you, don't scare me..." Cao Rou's eyes showed fear.

Judging by Cao Rou's reaction, it's definitely not an act of faking. I'm afraid this girl doesn't know her father's true face yet.

Cao Long has countless ways to trick Cao Rou into staying here for two days.

Yang Jiu sniffed and said with a smile: "Although there are two incense burners burning in this room, and other spices are sprayed, it's hard to conceal the stench of dead bodies that has accumulated over the years."

Cao Long frowned, feeling that Yang Jiu was determined to mess with him today.

Dongchang, Zhenshisi and Six Doors are very troublesome. Now that there is another Jinyiwei, if these people are really killed, the court can easily find Cao's house.

The so-called family business can be abandoned at any time.

Is it really the only way left to run?

Cao Long thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what went wrong.

Everything he did was very secretive, how did Yang Jiu find out?

"Miss Cao, if my guess is correct, those heads are actually still in this room." Yang Jiu looked around and said firmly.

Cao Rou said fearfully, "Lord Yang, don't talk nonsense."

Yang Jiu explained: "From the outside, this house looks very big, but when you go inside, you feel very small. Cao's house is so big, but you live in such a house for Miss Qianjin? I guess the house that the servants live in is smaller That's fine."

"I like it here." Cao Rou was still stubborn.

Yang Jiu smiled, and threw out a punch, and there was a bang, and Cao Rou's bed burst into pieces, and even a big hole appeared in the wall behind.

An unpleasant stench hit immediately, making Cao Rou retch.

Through that hole, it can be clearly seen that there are a lot of human heads piled up inside.

Cao Rou raised her head, saw it, screamed in fright, and ran away quickly.

Yang Jiu heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the reasoning skills rewarded by the system came in handy at this moment, otherwise, with his real ability, he really wouldn't be able to see the weirdness of this house.

Pointing to those heads, Yang Jiu asked, "Patriarch Cao, how do you explain?"

"I don't know who it is..." Cao Long's heart was filled with killing intent, and he planned to deny it.

When the wall was broken and the head appeared, Jueqing and the others put their hands on the hilt of the sword, ready to strike at any time.

Cao Long's martial arts is very strong, if he wants to win, he has to fight fast, before the rest of Cao Zhai's masters arrive, they beat Cao Long to the ground.

And Cao Jian had to guard against him.

Yang Jiu smiled and said: "I knew Patriarch Cao would say that. When you get to the prison, I believe you will tell the truth."

"No evidence, no proof..." Cao Longhan said in a cold voice.

Unfeelingly pointing at those heads, said: "This is the evidence."

Some of the heads inside were still bloody.

With these heads, the common people will believe that Cao Long is a beast with a face of a beast.

"Hahaha, very good, since you are so aggressive, don't blame the old man for being ruthless." Cao Long grabbed Cao Rou violently and threw her onto the roof.

On the side of the roof, many people suddenly appeared, and one of them took Cao Rou away directly.

Yang Jiu said: "Cao Long, you can't escape."

Cao Long smiled without saying a word, when he built this Cao residence, he had imagined that today's situation would appear.

Therefore, a secret passage was secretly dug underground, which can lead directly to the outside of the city.

At this moment, Cao Rou will enter the secret path and escape from Chang'an City.

And after he solved Yang Jiu and the others, he would also leave the city through the secret path.

At that time, the sky is high and the water is far away, so what can the imperial court do?

The Dafa of summoning souls is about to succeed. After success, he will be able to get rid of the control of the life and death talisman. What can Xiao Kun do against him?

It was not discovered until today, although it was beyond his expectations, but it was irrelevant.

The great work is about to be completed, and this accident is still acceptable.

"Cao Jian, leave quickly and escort Rou'er." Cao Long turned his head and said.

A person on the roof on one side threw a long knife to Cao Long.

Cao Jian nodded, turned and left.

In this huge Cao residence, the only thing Cao Long is worried about is Cao Rou.

As long as Cao Rou leaves safely, he can do a big job.

And in countless dreams, he has done this more than once. After waking up from the dream, just thinking about it, he feels very good.

"Master Yang, the enemy is outnumbered, and the situation seems to be a little bad." Leng Xue flashed his long saw, leaned against Yang Jiu, and said in a low voice.

At this moment, men with knives appeared not only on the roof, but also on the surrounding walls and at the courtyard gate.

These men's eyes are like torches, and the heavens are full. They are undoubtedly masters.

Coupled with the very powerful Cao Long, the five of them are really not enough for the opponent.

"Master Yang, do you want to send a signal?" Gongsun Qing asked.

Cao's house was completely surrounded, and it was inevitable that there would be secret passages in the house. The sooner you attack, the more demons you can get rid of.

Seeing Yang Jiu nodding, Gongsun Qing immediately released the signal flare.

The fireworks exploded in the sky, Cao Long was not worried at all, and said with a smirk: "Before your reinforcements arrive, I will send you on the road first."

Cao Long gave an order, and all the servants roared and killed them one after another.

Jueqing and the others made a quick move and stood with those servants.

From beginning to end, Yang Jiu's goal is Cao Long.

You can only know your own strength by fighting against top masters.

Cao Long only had Yang Jiu in his eyes, and if Yang Jiu hadn't been so hard-pressed, he wouldn't have come this far.

To be honest, after settling down in Chang'an City these years, he is already used to life here.

If they can live in peace and stability like ordinary people, who is willing to go to the rivers and lakes to fight and kill?
"Master Yang, are you planning to use your bare hands?" Until now, Cao Long was still not in a hurry to make a move.

Even on the surrounding ground, there are already many servants' bodies lying there.

Cao Long should have the capital to be arrogant. In his eyes, these juniors are like toddlers.

A normal adult spanking a few toddlers, the outcome is obvious.

Yang Jiu clenched her fists and said with a light smile, "If I use a knife, I'm afraid I'll hurt Patriarch Cao."

"Crazy enough, very much like an old man when he was young." While speaking, Cao Long stepped forward with a sudden step, and slashed at Yang Jiu's head with the long knife in his hand.

This slash was fast and ruthless, and it was the most vicious slash in the 28-way dragon-slaying sword technique.

When Cao Long made a move, it was a unique move in his life, and he wanted to kill Yang Jiu as soon as possible so that he could kill the rest of them.

Those servants usually show off their power, and they all think that they can do it. As a result, so many people deal with several juniors, but they can't take one person for a long time.

Clang.

Yang Jiu obviously didn't bring a saber, but at the moment he was holding a treasured saber in his hand, raised the saber to block it, and took Cao Long's saber.

Cao Long was stunned, but he saw Yang Jiu holding a knife in both hands, attacking fiercely.

It seemed that there was no move at all, but because the speed of the knife was so fast, Cao Long was forced to retreat again and again.

There were two servants who were besieging Jueqing, but suddenly gave up Jueqing and swung their knives at Xiang Yangjiu.

With a turn of Yang Jiu's body, the Xuexue Knife was lightly brought over, and the heads of the two people flew out.

"The sword skills are good." Cao Long had to admit that Yang Jiu's attainment in sword skills was on par with him at a young age, which was rare and terrifying.

The tip of the Snow Drinking Knife fell to the ground, and the blood sticking to the blade was quickly absorbed.

Magic knife?

Cao Long's eyes sank.

There are indeed such magical soldiers in the Jianghu, who are extremely bloodthirsty.

It can be said that the more blood the magic soldier drinks, the more powerful it will be.

For so many years, Cao Long also wanted to get such a magic knife, but unfortunately he failed.

"The knife is not bad, let me give it to the old man." Cao Long turned the edge of the knife and quickly slashed out of thin air.

Yang Jiu turned around and narrowly escaped. The two servants who were besieging Leng-Blood from behind were unfortunately struck by a sword, and their backs were almost split open, making Leng-Blood very confused.

Yang Jiu's martial arts was so high that it surpassed Cao Long's expectation.

The longer time passes, the harder it is to get out of trouble.

Thinking of him jumping into the sky suddenly, holding a knife with one hand, one knife left, one knife right, in an instant, the sword light intersected all over the sky, and fell quickly towards Yang Jiu.

There is a name for this move, it is called Tianwai Lai Dao, and it is the last move in the 28 Dragon Slaying Sword Techniques.

The sword glow all over the sky is illusory, like a bubble.

What was really fatal was the knife in Cao Long's hand.

The light of the saber was so dazzling that it was difficult for people on the ground to open their eyes wide. However, Cao Long, who was like a ghost, dodged behind Yang Jiu and stabbed straight with the saber.

Yang Jiu danced to drink the snow knife, and at the same time to block the light of the knife, he heard a clang from his back.

With a strong attack, Yang Jiu lost his footing and staggered forward.

Two servants came to kill them, but Yang Jiu cut their heads to the ground, then turned around and looked at Cao Long, who was also confused, and asked, "Cao Long, your uncle, when did you come to this place?" I went behind?"
