My master is invincible

Chapter 1103 Human Skin Coffin (69)

As soon as I entered the tent, I found that the tent was about ten square meters. There was a stretcher bed on the left, a low desk on the right, a few bamboo and rattan stools in the middle, and a military flag hanging on the innermost place. Three small characters, the sixth office.

The old man invited us to sit in the middle, and he moved a stool to sit beside us, and said slowly: "Xiao Jiu, who is this next to you?"

I didn't hide anything, so I told him You Tianming's identity.

After hearing this, he smiled, glanced at You Tianming, and said softly: "That's right, the three stops are equal, the five mountains return to the court, the five talents are complete, the eyes are like a phoenix, and he is a rich man, and he should do something in the future."

Hearing this, I was a little dazed, I understand what he said, it is a kind of reading, and You Tianming obviously understood, just like me, he looked at the old man in disbelief.

The old man seemed very satisfied with our reaction. He smiled and took out a cigarette. It was a white box with a five-pointed star on it. He gave one to You Tianming and me, and said slowly, "Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Ge, and my common name is Hongchen, the chief of the Sixth Office, you can call me Old Ge, or Chief Ge."

As soon as the words fell, You Tianming couldn't help breathing fast, and tremblingly said: "The sixth office, just... just... the sixth office that claims to specialize in dealing with supernatural events?"

The old man froze for a moment, then glanced at You Tianming in surprise, "Do you know about the Sixth Office?"

"The tutor used to be in the Sixth Office." You Tianming saluted Ge Hongchen while speaking.

Ge Hongchen looked happy, and quickly asked, "I don't know what your master's name is?"

"The surname is Duan!" When You Tianming mentioned his master, he looked proud.

"Duan?" You, Ge Hongchen, were stunned for a moment, muttered something, and then seemed to think of something, tremblingly said: "Is he an old man who knows how to count plum blossoms, and also plays a good suona!"

"Exactly!" You Tianming replied neither humble nor overbearing.

"I never expected that you would be Lao Duan's disciple. Presumably the plum blossoms are easy to count, and you know a lot, right?" Ge Hongchen asked with a smile.

"The master didn't teach the easy number of plum blossoms, but brother Jiu, who learned the easy number of plum blossoms from the master." You Tianming smiled awkwardly and explained.

"Xiao Jiu learned?" You, Ge Hongchen, looked at me.

I nodded, "I only learned some trivial things, by the way, you keep looking for us, what's the matter?"

I'm not in the mood to chat with him, so I directly asked the topic of this time. If it was normal, I would not object to chatting with him, but now I really don't have the time. After all, Chen Tiannan's revenge must be avenged as soon as possible.

Ge Hongchen obviously didn't expect me to be in such a hurry, so he smiled and said, "It's like this, about a day ago, someone called the Sixth Office, saying that a human skin coffin was dug out here, let us The Sixth Office came over to help deal with it."

As he said that, he took a puff of cigarette and continued: "Just arrived here to set up a camp, unexpectedly, I met Brother Yang and went back to the village to find someone. I chatted with Brother Yang for a while, and then I realized that there are really people here. It was recorded in my family tree that in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, some ancestors used their own human skin to make a coffin in order to atone for their sins, and the place where they were buried was right here."

After listening to what he said, You Tianming and I exchanged glances, and I asked Ge Hongchen, "For atonement? Make a coffin with your own human skin? It seems wrong! I remember that the human skin coffin has a curse in it, How did it become redemption?"

He smiled awkwardly, and explained: "Ordinary human skin coffins are similar to what you said, but the human skin coffins of my ancestors are somewhat unusual."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards the side. After a while, he took a piece of paper and a brush, and began to draw on the paper.

After about ten minutes, he handed me the paper, "Xiao Jiu, look at the drawing."

With some doubts, I took the drawing and looked at it. It was a coffin, and even the objects inside the coffin were clearly drawn.

I took a look, and immediately confirmed that what he drew should be a human skin coffin, so I said, "Old Ge, why did you draw this?"

He smiled and asked me: "When you dug out the human skin coffin, was there no corpse in it, only these objects?"

I shook my head, "There is also a headless corpse."

Hearing this, he muttered, "Headless body? Could it be him? Impossible. When he died, he seemed to have been divided into pieces. There should be no body. Could it be him?"

Hearing this, I looked happy, and immediately asked him: "Do you know who the corpse in the human skin coffin is?"

He nodded and explained: "Sun Kewang's son, Sun Shengshan, it is rumored that this Sun Shengshan was 24 years old, his head was beheaded, and his body was thrown into the wilderness. I didn't expect his body to appear in a human skin coffin."

Upon hearing this, You Tianming and I looked at each other. I remember You Tianming once said that he said that the Baojiaxian was probably Sun Kewang, but now I know from Ge Hongchen that the Baojiaxian should be Sun Shengshan. One point, I was very puzzled, how did Sun Shengshan become a Baojiaxian, and how did his body appear in the human skin coffin?

Seeing that I didn't speak, Ge Hongchen sighed deeply and said, "Xiao Jiu, I won't hide it from you. My ancestor used to be a member of Sun Kewang's skinning team, specializing in the immoral thing of skinning people. When he was old, he felt Feeling guilty, in order to atone for his sins, he found a carpenter, inlaid his own human skin in the inner layer of the coffin, and made a mezzanine in the coffin, divided his limbs into 108 pieces, and stored them in the mezzanine of the coffin. Earlier in the cemetery, I touched the coffin with a special technique, and there was a gray mark on it, and this gray mark is exactly the mark left by the ancestors."

After hearing what he said, my scalp tingled. If Ge Hongchen's ancestors hadn't been fully enlightened, they would never have done such a thing. After all, such things as splitting limbs are rarely done, so I asked him: "What do you mean?" , the bones of your ancestors are stored in the interlayer of the human skin coffin?"

He nodded and said: "My ancestors feel that they have committed a lot of sins, and they only use this method to atone for their sins. It has only one purpose, fearing retribution to future generations, so the old man will bear the sins all by himself."

After finishing speaking, he sighed heavily, and continued: "I never expected that the coffin of the ancestors would be used by Sun Shengshan, which led to this tragedy."

When he said this, he was full of self-blame.

I don't feel much about this. One is that the incident has already happened, and now it is an afterthought, and the other is that even if there is no human skin coffin from his ancestors, I believe that Sun Shengshan will definitely find another human skin coffin. I have seen the magnificence of the cave with my own eyes. The bottom is all made of human bones. God knows how many human bones there are.

So, I said to Ge Hongchen, "Director Ge, it's useless to say these words now, it's better to be more serious, what do you always plan to do with this human skin coffin, and what do you need us to do for you, but, Ugly things must be said first, I only have one day, if the time is long, you will always hire another expert."

I say this because I really don't want to stay here any longer, and I want to avenge Chen Tiannan immediately.

Hearing what I said, Ge Hongchen smiled, and said, "It won't delay you for long, only half a day is enough."

After finishing speaking, Ge Hongchen stood up and shouted towards the door, "Shunzi, bring the toolbox from our Sixth Office."
