Chapter 215 Cao Hu's Purpose

"Wu Mu Suicide Note" has come out?

What is the enemy of ten thousand people obtained before?
When Yang Jiu walked out of the room, it was already the fourth watch.

If all the corpses in Dizihaofang were as interesting as Song Xu, then sewing corpses would be a lot more fun in the future.

As for the details, we can only wait for him to come back from Xiangxi.

Early the next morning, when Yang Jiu and Gan Sisi rode to the east gate, they saw Feng Bao waiting under the gate.

"Every time Mr. Yang goes out to work, does he have to bring his family with him?" Feng Bao joked.

In fact, if he had such a beautiful daughter-in-law, he would definitely have to take it with him when he went out. After all, it would be very worrying to leave her at home alone.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "I heard that there are many beauties in Xiangxi, Master Feng can bring a few more back to Chang'an."

"That's the auspicious words from Lord Chengyang." Feng Bao laughed.

After exchanging pleasantries, the three of them rode out of Chang'an City and headed straight for Xiangxi.

Because the new year is coming, the three of them are rushing to go back to Chang'an before the year.

The New Year in Chang'an is undoubtedly the most lively.

In the city of Huzhou, many red lanterns have been hung on the streets, and red ribbons are fluttering in the wind, which has a new year flavor.

"Master Yang, it's still early, why should we stay in the city?" Feng Bao was puzzled.

The purpose of their trip was Xiangxi, because the corpse-expelling inn was there.

Regardless of whether the bergamot in Cao Hu's hand is real or not, the court has to guard against the conspiracy behind all the people from the rivers and lakes gathered in Xiangxi.

Those people from the rivers and lakes have been in Xiangxi for some time, and because of this, they should hurry up.

Although Xiangxi is under the jurisdiction of Huzhou, it is still a long way from the capital of Huzhou to Xiangxi.

Yang Jiudao: "We'll be staying here tonight, and we need to deal with some personal matters."

No matter what happens in Xiangxi, this night is not bad.

"Master Yang, why don't you stay here to deal with private matters, and I'll go ahead and find out the situation." Feng Bao still decided to focus on the overall situation.

Yang Jiu smiled and nodded, "Master Feng, please be more careful."

Someone is planning a terrifying conspiracy in western Hunan. The involvement of the imperial court will drive the planners behind the scenes crazy.

Feng Bao didn't stay in Huzhou, and rode directly to Xiangxi.

Yang Jiu and Gan Sisi found a random inn and took a room.

Yang Jiu took out the little paper figurine and said with a smile, "Master Daoist, we have arrived in Huzhou."

The little paper figurine rolled its eyes, but Yuan Guangzhong's voice did not come out.

"Taoist?" Yang Jiu asked again.

Could it be that shutting Yuan Guangzhong's soul in the Nine Snakes Returning Cave ruined it?

"The poor are here." Fortunately, Yuan Guangzhong spoke quickly.

Since it is no problem to store the soul in the Nine Snakes Returning Cave, if you encounter such a situation in the future, you can just throw it in directly to save trouble.

Yang Jiu smiled and said, "Master Daoist, let's rest for a while before going to visit Lord Zhizhou."

"Lord Yang, if this trip puts you in danger, I think it's fine." Yuan Guangzhong felt that he was already a dead man, and it didn't matter whether he took revenge or not.

Yang Jiudao: "Master Daoist, I will help you, not just for you."

According to Yuan Guangzhong, Yin Erxi, who was still the county magistrate at the time, actually had the ability to kill zombies.

To put it simply, Yin Erxi may be conducting some kind of experiment, which is related to zombies.

In this world, there are indeed many people who are trying to manipulate zombies, such as Xiao Kun, the owner of Wanjian Villa, Cao Hu, the owner of the Zombie Inn, and so on.

To do this kind of experiment requires great sacrifice.

Of course, those who would do this kind of experiment have long since lost their humanity. To them, the death of a few more people is no different from trampling a few ants to death.

"Your Majesty Yang is righteous, and I admire him," Yuan Guangzhong said with a smile.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "Prince Dao, please rest in this room, let's have a meal first."

Gan Sisi really wanted to say, wouldn't Mr. Zhizhou treat him to a meal?
Yin Erxi's food is not good.

Yang Jiu still wanted to fill his stomach first, and then talk to Yin Erxi.

Xiangxi is so lively now, Yin Erxi, as the magistrate of Huzhou, must be very familiar with the situation.

But what Yang Jiu is most interested in is Yin Erxi's purpose of manipulating zombies.

It's understandable for people in the world to do this. It's really weird for a court official to do this.

No matter how secretive Yin Erxi is, it is inevitable that the wind will not leak.

Walking out of the inn, the two found a roadside stall and ordered two bowls of wontons.

The winter in Huzhou is naturally not as cold as in Chang'an, but the wind blows through, and there is still a feeling of deboning.

After dinner, the two returned to the inn, took Yuan Guangzhong with them, and went straight to the state government office.

During this time, Zhizhou Yin Erxi usually had nothing to do, either drinking tea or writing.

Yin Erxi was taken aback when he learned that there was a corpse maker from Chang'an asking to see him.

The status of the sewers is low. Even the high-grade sewers in Dongchang are just a bunch of ugly beggars in the eyes of many officials.

Anyway, idle is idle, so Yin Erxi asked Yang Jiu to come in.

When he saw Gan Sisi, Yin Erxi's eyes lit up, and beside a corpse stitcher, there was still a lovely person like a fairy.

"I don't remember asking the imperial court to send a corpse maker." Yin Erxi said arrogantly.

In Chang'an City, no civil or military man in the Manchu Dynasty dared to disrespect Yang Jiu, even Prime Minister Di Juyi respected Yang Jiu.

Yin Erxi's attitude made Gan Sisi quite dissatisfied.

Yang Jiu didn't care, it's normal for local officials to be arrogant and rude.

It is said that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Being a parent official in a remote place is essentially no different from being an emperor.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "When sewing corpses, we often come across corpses that show signs of corpse transformation. If they are not dealt with in time, these corpses will easily become zombies. I heard that Mr. Yin has a deep research on zombies, so I came here to ask for advice."

Upon hearing this, Yin Erxi's face changed suddenly.

He is an official appointed by the imperial court. He sits in Huzhou and protects the peace of the people here. How could he have a deep research on zombies?

"You corpse sewer..." Yin Erxi wanted to say that Yang Jiu had nothing to say, but then he thought, this guy is from Dongchang, and the corpse sewers in Dongchang have high grades. Offending them is equivalent to offending Wei Zhongxian.

If you want to keep your official career open, you must not offend Wei Zhongxian.

Yang Jiu looked at Yin Erxi with a smile, and said, "Master Yin, to be honest, I'm not very interested in zombies. I just know a friend who is very good at it."

"Really?" Yin Erxi's face was obviously displeased.

Yang Jiudao: "I wonder if Mr. Yin still remembers Taoist Yuan Guangzhong?"

Hearing this name, Yin Erxi's body trembled, and a murderous look flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal and shook his head lightly.

Even if the corpse stitcher in Dongchang is also an official ordered by the imperial court, but this corpse stitcher's control is too lenient.

"Master Yin asked Daoist Yuan to go down the mountain to get rid of his stiffness. Daoist Yuan had already lived in seclusion, but he still had a narrow mind. He never thought that going down the mountain this time would fall into Master Yin's scheme..." Yang Jiu's voice was lukewarm, as if to say something A commonplace thing.

Yin Erxi looked solemn, and after hearing Yang Jiu finish speaking, he laughed and said, "Your Excellency really knows how to joke."

"True or false, my lord only needs to confront Daoist Yuan to find out." Yang Jiu said.

Yin Erxi was naturally not afraid, because he was sure that Yuan Guangzhong was really dead.

Confronting the dead is like playing the piano with a cow.

"Confrontation is confrontation, why should I be afraid of it?" Yin Erxi said righteously.

Yang Jiu winks at Gan Sisi, and Gan Sisi gets up to draw the curtains.

Yin Erxi sat without moving, but wanted to see what the seamstress wanted to do.

After the curtains were all drawn, the room was very dark, feeling stuffy and very uncomfortable.

Yang Jiu patted the little paper figurine and said with a smile, "Daoist Yuan, you can come out now."

Yuan Guangzhong left the little paper figurine and stood directly in front of Yin Erxi, his eyes seemed to be breathing fire.

Yin Erxi didn't respond because he couldn't see Yuan Guangzhong at all.

Yang Jiu raised his right hand and said, "Master Yin, Daoist Yuan has turned into a ghost, so naturally you can't see him." He flicked it lightly.

Yuan Guangzhong's figure immediately appeared in Yin Erxi's eyes, and Yin Erxi got up and backed away in fright.

"You you you..." Yin Erxi pointed at Yuan Guangzhong, stuttering and unable to speak.

Yuan Guangzhong was quite surprised, unexpectedly Yin Erxi could see him, and immediately said: "Pindao wants to know the reason, why did you frame the poor?"

Yuan Guangzhong lives in seclusion in the mountains and has nothing to do with Yin Erxi. The reason why he is willing to go down the mountain to get rid of the dead is also for the sake of innocent people.

Yin Erxi set up a trap, what is the purpose?

"I don't understand what you're saying." Yin Erxi decided to play dumb.

As long as he refuses to admit it, he doesn't believe that Yuan Guangzhong can still produce evidence.

Of course Yuan Guangzhong didn't save him, he just wanted to know the reason.

Sitting next to him, Yang Jiu couldn't help but said, "Daoist Yuan, although this matter has been going on for many years, as long as we investigate, we should be able to find some clues."

Hearing this, Yin Erxi actually smiled.

What he thought in his heart was that Yang Jiu must be eliminated.

If this guy is allowed to return to Chang'an, Wei Zhongxian's ears will probably be fanned, and his situation will be very bad.

As for the little beauties who followed Yang Jiu, it would be a pity to kill them, so naturally they had to keep them and enjoy them slowly.

"Jiulang, don't you have..." Gan Sisi felt that there was no need to bother, Yang Jiu only needed to give Yin Erxi a drop of truth, and Yin Erxi would tell everything.

Yang Jiu smiled.

Gan Sisi stopped interrupting.

Yin Erxi walked towards the window, apparently ready to draw the curtains.

It feels weird to close the curtains before it's dark.

Yin Erxi did this because he wanted to confirm whether Yuan Guangzhong was a real ghost or not.

If it is a ghost, it must be very afraid of the light of day.

He always felt in his heart that he had fallen into Yang Jiu's schemes.

Yang Jiu dodged suddenly, appeared directly in front of Yin Erxi, and said with a light smile, "Master Yin, if you know your mistakes, you can correct them, and there is nothing good about it."

"Although your Excellency is the corpse stitcher of Dongchang, if you slander me like this, even if I sue the saint, I will make you pay the price." Yin Erxi said angrily.

Yang Jiu shot swiftly, and easily sealed Yin Erxi's acupuncture points.

Yin Erxi also knows martial arts, but compared with Yang Jiu, he is far behind.

The key is that he didn't take precautions at all just now, that's why he caught Yang Jiu's way.

"Yang Jiu, if you attack an official of the imperial court, according to the law, you will be punished by the Jiu Clan." Yin Erxi just couldn't move his body.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "When you eat this, you won't have this trouble."

A drop of truth water was stuffed into Yin Erxi's mouth, his face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he felt that what Yang Jiu had given him must be poison.

A person like him must be afraid of death.

Poison can firmly control him.

The key is that he already has a poison in his body, and if he takes Yang Jiu's poison now, he will really die.

Yuan Guangzhong was shocked when he saw Yang Jiu's actions.

Although Yang Jiu was also an official appointed by the court, the risk he took in doing so was too great.

Yang Jiu sat down and asked with a smile: "Master Yin, tell me, why did you frame Daoist Yuan?"

"At that time, the small county under my jurisdiction was plagued by zombies. Many villagers were bitten to death by zombies. Someone had to be responsible for it. Daoist Yuan happened to live in seclusion in the nearby mountains, so..." Yin Erxi looked very depressed.

It feels awful to tell the truth.

Yang Jiu looked at Yuan Guangzhong and sighed, "Master Daoist, you were tricked into taking the blame."

"No, Pindao clearly saw at that time that you have ways to deal with zombies." Yuan Guangzhong didn't trust Yin Erxi very much.

Those zombies were very ferocious, they would bite anyone they saw, but the officers and soldiers who appeared behind were able to kill all the zombies easily with one arrow at a time.

There is no need to find someone to take the blame for this matter, you just need to report the truth to the court, not only will Yin Erxi not have done anything wrong, but he will also be rewarded by the court for his meritorious service.

Yin Erxi tried his best to trick Yuan Guangzhong down the mountain to take the blame, which doesn't make sense.

Yang Jiu was thinking all the time, seeing that Yin Erxi was silent, she asked again: "Who is behind you?"

Yin Erxi's strength is too good, Yang Jiu does not believe that this guy can deal with zombies.

At that time, behind Yin Erxi, there must have been an expert who was advising Yin Erxi, and it could even be said that Yin Erxi was that person's puppet.

"It's Cao Hu, those zombies were all made by Cao Hu, and the venom that killed the zombies was also made by Cao Hu, it has nothing to do with me..." Yin Erxi was terrified.

After Yang Jiu gave him medicine, he discovered the crux of the problem.

As long as Yang Jiu asks, he can't help but tell the truth.

So he was very afraid that Yang Jiu would ask if there was anyone behind him, but Yang Jiu just asked like that, he was really afraid of something.

It was Cao Hu again.

The current chaos in Xiangxi is most likely caused by Cao Hu.

"Taoist, do you have anything else to ask?" Yang Jiu looked at Yuan Guangzhong.

Yuan Guangzhong shook his head.

Before coming here, he thought about killing Yin Erxi, but now he feels that Yin Erxi is actually a poor person.

Cao Hu has a high status in the world, his martial arts are unfathomable, and his Gu skills are superb. Anyone who offends Cao Hu will end badly.

If Cao Hu played a trick on Yin Erxi, then Yin Erxi would have to do things for Cao Hu.

Yuan Guangzhong couldn't let go of this matter, because he still couldn't figure out the truth of it.

Now that the truth is revealed, he doesn't want to take Yin Erxi's head.

"Yang Jiu, what did you feed me?" Yin Erxi's face became more and more ugly.

It felt like what Yang Jiu gave him was a hundred times more terrifying than poison.

Now no matter what Yang Jiu asks, he will answer truthfully, which is terrible.

Yang Jiu lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What is Cao Hu's intention for making such a big commotion in Xiangxi this time?"

"Cao Hu has cultivated a Zombie King for many years, and now it is the day when he is done, he needs the help of many experts with deep internal skills to make the Zombie King possess spiritual consciousness and obey Cao Hu's orders." Yin Erxi replied in a low voice.

Cao Hu didn't have bergamot at all, not even fake ones.

But Cao Hu is very good at taking advantage of the common weaknesses of people in the rivers and lakes.

If Cao Hu is allowed to become a real Zombie King, the Jianghu might have to respect Cao Hu as the leader of the alliance.
