Merchant of the Underworld

Chapter 11 Love Legend

With this doubt, I looked at Wu Tiezhu's body carefully again.

Looking at it this way, I really see something fishy. The broken arm was very uneven, and the wound looked like it was bitten, and Wu Tiezhu's mouth was bulging, as if he had something in his mouth.

I was about to have someone pry open Wu Tiezhu's mouth to see what was in his mouth. The police had already arrived from the town.

The lazy man immediately walked over diligently: "Comrade police, my ancestral grave has been stolen. You must punish the murderer severely and vent the evil for my ancestors!"

As soon as the lazy man opened his mouth, the strong bad breath immediately made the policeman shake his head.

One policeman asked the lazy man what happened, while the other policeman took photos to collect evidence.

The lazy man kept talking about his family's ancestral grave, and finally the police couldn't bear it anymore and asked: "I just want to know how this person died..."

I interjected: "I think he bit off his own arm and bled to death."

When I said this, there was a lot of booing at the scene.

The policeman naturally refused to believe it and asked me with a smile how I could tell?

I said, "Look at the broken arm of the corpse. There are obvious signs of being bitten."

Immediately, a man who looked like a forensic doctor jumped down from the pit, carefully examined the body, nodded and said that it was indeed bitten out.

I said, "Look again, there seems to be something in his mouth."

The forensic doctor nodded, opened the medical kit he carried with him, and used two large tweezers and pliers to forcefully open Wu Tiezhu's mouth. He actually picked out a lot of rotten minced meat and even a finger.

There was a commotion in the crowd, and they were obviously scared. After all, Wu Tiezhu bit himself to death, which was abnormal in every aspect. He couldn't help but associate the cause of Wu Tiezhu's death with being haunted.

The lazy man was not afraid at all, he just gloated and cursed: He deserves it.

The young forensic doctor was also a little scared and did not even dare to look directly at the solitary grave. He also felt that the solitary grave was very evil. He immediately asked his companions to pull him up, and quickly issued an autopsy report: the deceased Wu Tiezhu was a tomb robber. During the tomb robbery, he committed self-harm, bit off his left arm, and died of excessive bleeding. He was suspected of having a history of mental illness. . "

What happened after that was a matter of course.

The police immediately notified Wu Tiezhu's family to come and claim the body.

After the police left, I asked everyone to continue digging and completely dig up the concubine's tomb.

The lazy man asked me with a worried look on his face: "Now that we have figured out that Wu Tiezhu is responsible, do we still need to continue? Why don't we just bury him here."

I shook my head and said: "This is not possible. The deceased has been disturbed, so it is better to bury him again. Besides, the blue and white porcelain guided us to dig out the ancient tomb. What is the purpose? In addition to finding the tomb robbers, there should be other clues. In a coffin.”

The lazy man is now following his own lead and says, let’s continue!

Prying open the surrounding blue bricks, the tomb chamber inside was quickly revealed. The tomb is not big. There are some bottles and cans scattered around, and the red lacquered wood coffin is shocking.

And the coffin lid has actually been opened. Needless to say, it must have been Wu Tiezhu.

Seeing that the villagers were reluctant to take action, I simply tied a rope to the coffin myself and asked the villagers to pull the coffin out.

As a result, the moment the coffin was seen again, everyone was stunned.

The female corpse in the coffin had not rotted, and was even intact. Her teeth, hair, and even eyelashes were clearly visible. She was still wearing a bright palace concubine's uniform, with a smile on her face and her hands flat, looking very peaceful.

She has become a mummy.

In her hand, she held a scroll tightly.

I hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took out the scroll, unfolding it bit by bit.

There is a poem on it.

There is such a sudden surprise when people die, and they can't afford to cry out for it.

Sorry, I only have a shadow in the human world. How can we live together but die differently?

How can two people who die together meet each other? A pair of white bones in a barren mountain.

When I was alive, I kept my eyes open and accompanied me from morning to day to read history books.

What is the lacquered coffin? The appearance of the heart is almost imitable.

Last year's laughter has turned into dust, but today's dreams are full of tears.

Although I am not very proficient in ancient Chinese, I can still tell at a glance that this is actually a poem praising love.

The general meaning is that a person is filled with emotion in front of the portrait of a dead couple, lamenting that they cannot live and die together, and can only shed tears when thinking of happy things in the past.

I don’t understand who this concubine was who mentioned this poem. Her beloved must have died early, right?

In the deep palaces and high walls of feudal society, there are countless such concubines. It is only a luxury to hope for the emperor's favor. In desperation, I had to place my hope in others.

I wonder who is lucky enough to have this concubine’s secret love? But his fate was frustrated and he died young.

Presumably, it has something to do with the green head.

I didn't have time to investigate this at the time, so I just ordered someone to close the coffin lid again and seal it with iron nails. After that, I will have no control over the relocation of the tomb. There are craftsmen in the village who will be responsible for it.

Later, Li Mazi and I were at the lazy man's house and found his family's ancestral genealogy, and then we learned the origin of 'green head'.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Nalan, a famous general of a generation, accidentally met his concubine, and they fell in love at first sight. The man admired the woman's literary talents, and the woman admired the man's bravery.

In the feudal environment at that time, both parties still resisted various pressures and met secretly.

Later, Nalan was seriously injured in a battle and saw that he could not survive. The concubine was heartbroken and went on a hunger strike for three days, trying to "not wish to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but to die in the same year, the same month and the same day."

Nalan was heartbroken and immediately made a will, ordering his teeth and ashes to be made into a man's head, hoping that he would always be with his concubine.

The concubine was so sad that she accepted the human head and cried sadly every night.

Later, she was shocked to realize that this was not a simple piece of blue and white porcelain. She always felt that General Nalan was sleeping next to her pillow every night.

Being together like this day and night may have been the best ending for them at that time.

Later, the Eight-Power Allied Forces captured the city of Beijing. Under the protection of Ren Tou Qing, the concubine escaped from the palace safely and took with her a lot of treasures, enough for her to live for the rest of her life.

I never expected that even after General Nalan died, he would still use his soul to protect his beloved woman. Time flies, times pass, and hundreds of years still fail to dilute that emotion.

According to the prior agreement, we should take away the head green as a reward for this trip.

However, who has the heart to break up this epic love legend?

What's more, even if I take away the green head, it will not be peaceful.

So in the end, I decided to let Rentouqing and my concubine be buried together...

This incident made Li Mazi so angry that he ignored me for three days and three nights. After all, hundreds of thousands of people were just buried under the soil, which made everyone feel sad.

Let alone Li Mazi, I feel like my heart is bleeding.

But in order to repay us, the lazy man selected some of the funerary objects in the ancient tomb and gave them to us.

These things all came from the palace and were valuable, so we still made a small profit.

Since moving the grave, this lazy man has never encountered anything weird again. Perhaps thanks to the blessing of his ancestors, this lazy man made a lot of money with the treasures in the tomb. Later, he worked hard and became a real estate businessman.

Compared with the lazy man's success, Wu Tiezhu's family is much more miserable.

First, Wu Tiezhu's father became a vegetative state in a car accident. Wu Tiezhu's mother could not bear the family pressure and died of drinking medicine. Even Wu Tiezhu's only brother gave birth to a son, but he actually had no butt-eyes.

People say that Wu Tiezhu has done all the evil deeds, so he suffered retribution.

Li Mazi also asked me if his family had really suffered retribution?

I just smiled and had no words.

Who knows if there is a pair of eyes watching us in the dark?

As for Wu Qiong's brother giving birth to a son without a buttocks, it's actually not unusual. It's just a strange disease called congenital anorectal syndrome, and it can be cured with surgery.
