My years as a corpse seamstress in the East Factory

Chapter 83

Master Zhang is naturally willing to lead the way.

With an order, dozens of servants, armed with sticks and ropes, escorted Mr. Zhang to Mr. Tao's cemetery.

When the nearby people learned about the situation, they also spontaneously followed.

Master Tao cheated on the corpse, which made them restless.

Some people even chose to report to officials because they were too scared.

The government sent police to investigate and concluded that Master Tao's grave had been stolen.

The person who robbed the tomb was seeking money first, and revenge, so he must have a deep hatred for Master Tao.

But who this person is still needs to be investigated slowly.

The common people are well aware of the government's routines, and if they investigate and investigate, they will end up with nothing.

Master Tao had a lot of funeral objects, most of which were good things, not to mention anything else, the wrench on his thumb was worth ten taels of gold.

Bringing gold, silver and jewels to the grave after death will only disturb the grave robbers.

After Mr. Tao escaped with the corpse, his wife also sent all the servants to reward him for finding the corpse.

If the body cannot be found, the grave cannot be repaired.

The hole in the tomb bag is huge, after all, the coffin lid flew out.

It is daytime now, and the sun shines in through the hole, making the tomb very bright.

Master Zhang and the others did not dare to approach.

Yang Jiu walked over and took a look inside, hey, Master Tao not only came back, but also brought himself a companion.

The coffin was not big, Master Tao was lying flat inside, his face looked grim after being dead for several days.

The woman in a thin white gauze skirt was lying on Master Tao's body, not knowing whether she was dead or alive.

"Master, what do you see?" Master Zhang asked loudly from a distance.

Yang Jiu replied: "Find someone to inform the Tao family that Master Tao is back."

Master Tao is back?
The sun was warm, but when everyone heard these words, their backs felt cold and their legs trembled.

To open Master Tao's grave, the Tao family must agree.

After Yang Jiu urged again, Master Zhang sent someone to invite the Tao family.

The Tao family came very quickly, and the leader was Master Tao's official wife Tao Wang.

"Dig up." Tao Wang gave an order, and the family servant waved the iron shovel to dig the grave.

This Tao Wang is in his early forties, with round arms and a thick waist, and his fat body trembles when he speaks.

The grave was dug up and the coffin was carried out.

Two servants carried the woman lying on Master Tao's body out of the coffin. When she turned over, Tao Wang jumped into a rage and kicked her up.

This woman is exactly Master Tao's concubine raised in another house, young and beautiful, with a good figure.

Unexpectedly, when the kick was kicked out, the woman actually yelled "Wow".

Tao Wang thought it was another corpse fraud, and when he ran away, he tripped and fell, and his mouth was covered with blood.

The servant hurriedly helped Tao Wang up.

"I...why am I here?" The concubine woke up and looked around suspiciously.

Fan Tong hid behind Yang Jiu and asked in a trembling voice, "Master Jiu, is she...is she a human or a ghost?"

"Where did the ghost come from in broad daylight?" Yang Jiu said as she walked towards the coffin, wanting to examine Master Tao's body carefully.

Tao Wang's reaction was very quick, and he quickly turned around and picked up the concubine, and asked with a grinning smile, "You want to be buried with the master?"

The person that the concubine was most afraid of was Tao Wangshi, and she was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

The sun is shining.

Master Zhang saw that Master Tao in the coffin would probably not crawl out, so he bravely came over and asked, "Master, what's going on?"

"Someone is pretending to be a ghost." Yang Jiu said.

Master Tao did not die.

But all the funerary objects in the coffin disappeared.

But, Yang Jiu noticed that scattered green hairs grew out of Master Tao's exposed skin.

According to "Zi Bu Yu", this is the sign before the corpse change.

If Master Tao is buried in the soil for a longer period of time, maybe he will really turn into a dead body.

It would be best if his body could be sewn together and reburied, or avoided.

When Yang Jiu proposed this idea, she was scolded bloody by Tao Wang.

When Tao Wang's mood calmed down a bit, Yang Jiu reminded with a smile: "Destroying a corpse and burying it privately is a felony."

Tao Wangshi breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to continue cursing, but when she heard these words, she felt like a stick in her throat.

"Master is right. If you don't send Master Tao to the corpse shop, I'll sue you in the government. Then the government will search your house and chop off the heads of your whole family." Master Zhang suddenly said.

When the Tao Wang family insisted on burying Master Tao before, they should have reported to the officials.

One time of weakness, if Master Tao's corpse changes in exchange, they will be the ones who will suffer in the end.

No matter how arrogant Tao Wang was, he would not dare to make fun of the lives of his family.

This place is relatively close to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, so Master Zhang asked his family to carry Master Tao to the corpse sewing shop of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

A farce ended, Yang Jiu just joined in the fun.

Seeing the green hair on Master Tao's corpse, Yang Jiu was very curious. It's impossible for every damaged corpse to be sewn up before being buried. So, did any of the corpses change?

Yang Jiu declined Master Zhang's kindness to entertain him, and hurried back to the corpse sewing shop to catch up on sleep.

Storytellers seldom talk about anecdotes like the corpse change, so it's best to ask an old fritter like the third master.

After dinner, Yang Jiu invited the third master to warm up in his mortuary shop.

The third master is very good at living. In the cold winter of March and September, he basically relies on shaking for heating, and he is reluctant to buy a piece of coal.

If it's too cold to bear, the third master will come over to Yang Jiu to warm up by the fire.

The third master would rather freeze to death than save money to go to Yunyulou.

"Third Lord, it is said that the dead body will change after being buried with a broken body. Is this true?" Yang Jiu warmed a pot of good wine for the third master before getting to the point.

The third master drank a bowl of wine, smiled and said: "Xiao Jiu, we have a corpse guard in Da Wei, do you know?"

Town corpse?
Yang Jiu shook his head.

"There are not a few corpses that are buried without being able to sew them together. It doesn't mean that those corpses will transform into corpses, but compared with normal corpses, mutilated corpses are indeed easier to transform into corpses. The corpses in the town are all masters. It can be said that wherever there is a corpse change, there will be people who suppress corpses." The third master taught Yang Jiu a good lesson.

Sending off the third master, it's already dark.

The Dongchang guards began to distribute corpses to various mortuary shops.

However, Yang Jiu was thinking that since the imperial court would build a special shop for sewing corpses and hire seamstresses to sew corpses, it meant that the corpse change really existed.

Adding up the sewing shops and sewing people all over the country, that is also a huge expense.

If there is no need, why do this pointless thing?
It's just that there are many things that ordinary people are kept in the dark and don't know.

"Sewing corpses at No. [-] sewing shop, sewing corpses at No. [-] sewing shop."

Hearing the guard's shout, Yang Jiu waited at the door.

The body was brought in soon. It was a little boy about ten years old.

"Ding Ding was stolen, and I couldn't make it through." One of the guards babbled, and then went to work on other things.

Thief Tintin entered the city from around Chang'an City.

The body of this little boy was found near Dongchang, and his family has not been found yet.

Yang Jiu closed the door, looked at the corpse, feeling quite emotional.

This Tintin thief is really hateful.

There is a sewing guide in every sewing shop.

Some corpses are incomplete, how to sew these corpses, there are detailed instructions in the guide.
