I cross you in the world of mortals [Rebirth]

There are currently three tables in the Liuyun Inn, with a total of ten people. Last moment, these ten people were either eating or waiting for the food to be served, but now they are all crowded at the door, looking up at the sky.

One of them said: "It's so dark, isn't it going to rain?"

Others disagreed: "Even if it's going to rain, how can it be completely dark in the blink of an eye?"

Another person asked: "What time is it now?"

The other replied: "Probably not the time."

Shu Yun inside lit candles on the table one by one, and greeted: "It's very dark outside, you should come in and have dinner."

Everyone looked at each other, no one knew why it was so dark at this late hour, so they went back to sit at the table.

It's a pity that the weather is so weird that everyone doesn't know what to eat.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, everyone followed the sound, and two people appeared at the door of the inn, one was wearing gray clothes, the other was wearing a blue gown, both of them had good looks.

Seeing that Shen Jimo and Ji Zhuo had returned, Shu Yun walked over quickly, pulled them aside, and said in a trembling voice: "But it will be dark today, could it be that the wolf corpse is different?"

Shen Jimo didn't answer, but said: "You help me to invite Zhang Qing here."

After a while, Shu Yun came with Zhang Qing.

Shen Jimo lowered his voice and asked, "Zhang Qing, do you know where those fourteen human skins went?"

Zhang Qing was taken aback when he heard the words: "Human skin...wasn't the human skin buried in the back mountain together with the wolf corpse and Lao Qi's corpse?"

Shen Jimo shook his head and said: "The human skin is not in the back mountain."

Zhang Qing frowned and said: "Then maybe someone stole it, but what's the use of stealing this human skin?"

Ji Zhuo said coldly: "I don't know what that man stole the human skin for, but if he can't find the human skin, the day may not be bright for a while."

"It's strange that the sky darkened after the end of the day..." Shu Yun turned pale in shock, and said in a trembling voice, "But what does it have to do with human skin?"

Ji Zhuo replied: "Those skinned people are dead, but their souls are determined not to go to the underworld for reincarnation. Now the souls can't find their own skins, and they are full of resentment."

Shen Jimo said softly: "Zhang Qing, are you sure you buried the human skin and wolf corpse together?"

Zhang Qing glanced at Shu Yun and recalled: "You also know that there are only me, Ayun and Lao Qi in this inn. After Lao Qi died, only me and Ayun were left. Ayun fell into a coma three days ago. After asking the doctor to look at it, he buried the wolf carcasses and human skins according to Master Ji's order. There were seventeen wolf carcasses and fourteen human skins. I was afraid of shocking people, and I couldn't explain why this happened. There were so many wolf carcasses and human skins, so I had to transport the carcasses by myself on a cart, back and forth five times, before transporting all the wolf carcasses and human skins to the back mountain. When I arrived at the back mountain, I was afraid that someone would pass by, so I dare not delay , I started digging immediately, and I don’t know how long it took me to dig a pit deep enough to hold the wolf’s carcass..."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and spread out his palm, saying: "The blisters on it are from that day."

Zhang Qing's palms were densely covered with blisters, after four days, the blisters had subsided a bit, but it can be seen the hardships at that time.

Ji Zhuo looked at Zhang Qing carefully, without saying a word.

Shen Jimo looked at Zhang Qing's palm, and said warmly: "Mr. Zhang is tired. I would like to ask Mrs. Shu and Mr. Zhang to inquire about the whereabouts of those fourteen human skins."

Both Shu Yun and Zhang Qing nodded in agreement.

Shen Jimo said with a smile: "Miss Shu, I'm a little hungry, please serve me two bowls of Yangchun noodles."

Shu Yun was very worried, if there was no light all day long, the number of people coming to the ferry would be greatly reduced, how would the inn continue to operate?

She heard the sound, forced a smile, and said: "Young Master Shen, you only want Yangchun noodles, and what kind of meat do you want?"

"Yangchun noodles are fine." Shen Jimo grabbed Ji Zhuo's right hand, stroked the back of his hand and said with a smile, "My husband likes vegetarian food, so I'll eat vegetarian food with him today."

After finishing speaking, Shen Jimo took Ji Zhuo to the inn lobby, and before he walked a few steps, he leaned close to Ji Zhuo's ear, and said in a volume that Shu Yun and Zhang Qing could hear: "I hope I can find someone Pi, if you can’t find it, let’s keep it dark for a year or a half at the most, when all the grievances are gone, it will finally be bright, and the darkness will only be dark for a radius of ten miles. You and I will rest here for a few days and set off. Just go to Lizhou."

Shen Jimo and Ji Zhuo sat in the lobby, they were speechless for a moment, the guests next to them kept talking, making their table extremely deserted.

Before Yang Chunmian came up, Ji Zhuo looked at the sky outside and said in a low voice: "Do you doubt Shu Yun and Zhang Qing?"

Shen Jimo shook his head and said, "I only suspect Zhang Qing."

Ji Zhuo nodded and said: "Zhang Qing is indeed suspicious..."

He paused, and then said: "I don't know if that old Qi skinned people for his own selfish desire or for other purposes."

Shen Jimo pondered and said: "Could it be that Lao Qi has other plans, and what he plans has something to do with the disappearance of the human skin? Perhaps his plan was also planned by Zhang Qing, so Zhang Qing did not agree with what he just said. Yan generally buried the human skin with the wolf corpse, but hid the human skin?"

"It's not impossible." Ji Zhuo saw Shu Yun coming with Yangchun noodles from a distance, and asked instead, "Why do you want to eat Yangchun noodles today?"

Shen Jimo looked at Ji Zhuo with eyes full of affection, then lowered his head slightly, showing a shy attitude, and said charmingly: "Husband, don't you like this Yangchun noodles? If your husband likes it, I naturally like it too."

Since Ji Zhuo redeemed Shen Jimo from the Chu Pavilion, he was often teased by him, and he was used to it. He only thought that it was the trick of seducing men that Shen Jimo learned when he was immersed in the Chu Pavilion, and he didn't pay much attention to it. Even though Shen Jimo looked at him affectionately, the muscles on his face didn't move a single bit, and there was no reaction at all.

Shu Yun put two bowls of Yangchun noodles in front of Shen Jimo and Ji Zhuo respectively, before leaving, but heard Shen Jimo ask: "Where is that young man now?"

Shu Yun replied: "He still lives in the previous room. I just went upstairs and gave him medicine, and he should still be asleep now."

Shen Jimo tasted Yangchun noodles, smiled at Shu Yun, and said, "This noodles are delicious."

Although she didn't make this noodle, Shu Yun was very happy to be praised by Shen Jimo. She smiled and said, "It's good that Mr. Shen likes it. After Lao Qi died, I found a cook with great difficulty... ···”

Shen Jimo interjected: "Miss Shu, where did you find this cook?"

Shu Yun wondered why Shen Jimo would ask this question, but still replied: "Aunt Li was found by Zhang Qing. She said that she was old and disliked by her daughter-in-law, so she came out to look for an errand."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly felt something different from Shen Jimo's question just now, and said, "Mr. Shen, do you doubt Aunt Li?"

Shen Jimo chuckled: "I didn't think so much, I just asked casually."

At this moment, Aunt Li in the kitchen called out, "Ah Yun, the sweet and sour pork ribs are ready."

"Here we come." Shu Yun responded, and hurriedly served the dishes.

Shen Jimo used up the Yangchun noodles, moved to Ji Zhuo's side, and whispered: "I'll go upstairs to see that boy, and you go and see this Aunt Li, the timing of her appearance is too strange."

Ji Zhuo was still eating Yangchun noodles, he didn't make a sound, just nodded.

Shen Jimo went upstairs, and before he took a few steps, he heard the boy's painful groans from a distance.

He quickened his pace, pushed the door open, and entered. The young man was buried under the quilt, and his exposed arms and face were all soaked with sweat and extremely red.

Shen Jimo quickly pulled the quilt away, and took off the boy's clothes.

The skin all over the boy's body was sweating uncontrollably, and when he touched it with his hands, it was as hot as if it had been cooked. Fortunately, there was no wolf hair growing on it, and there was no other abnormality.

But why is it so hot?

The young man regained consciousness under Shen Jimo's manipulation. He saw Shen Jimo standing in front of him, and realized that he was completely naked. Asked, "What are you going to do?"

Shen Jimo wanted to check the young man's pulse, but since the young man broke away, he had no choice but to withdraw his hand and asked, "What happened that day after Mr. Ji and I left? Why are you so hot? Where did you go?"
