What a coincidence, really.

Ji Mo didn't know what to say, but the shopkeeper of the wine shop looked at him with probing eyes for a few days, and found that he really didn't have the idea of ​​directly opening a coffin shop to expand his business, so he reluctantly let go of the thoughts in his heart. A little suspicious.

And Ji Mo's own doubts about the candidate are even clearer. The person who bought the paper doll from the shopkeeper of the coffin shop to replace the old lady's body, and the person who exchanged the dead person's birth date for the small paper doll, is probably the same person as the person who buried the corpse that day at the cemetery. , that is, the adulterer who has been left out.

The other party is like this now, is it a murder?After all, he was the only one who had been in contact with the shopkeeper of the coffin shop all this time, and only the shopkeeper of the coffin shop had seen him and knew his true identity.

But, in fact, there is absolutely no need for the other party to do this. If the old lady was buried in the coffin with a paper doll from the beginning, that is to say, the old lady may not be dead, and they may not be the ones who killed them. Well, that young lady and her son were also killed by a businessman. There is absolutely no need for this adulterer to kill people because of this incident!

His crime is at best adultery, and adultery is almost no big loss to a man. The crime is not fatal, and he didn't kill anyone. When the wife's family members don't pursue it, it seems that there is no need to kill and hide himself completely!

In the past, Ji Mo also liked to watch some movies and TV shows such as criminal investigation and reasoning. I dare not say that I don’t know anything about it. At least I still have the logical reasoning of normal people. The shopkeeper used this to threaten the other party, but in fact it was not very lethal, the sufferer was gone.

That businessman is really a small businessman with no big power, at least there is no possibility of collusion between officials and businessmen, otherwise he would not run away immediately after killing someone. Then, this kind of threat itself lacks strength, and it is not enough for one person to commit murder. Set fire to it.

Unless, there is something else they don't know.

After thinking about it for a while, there was no clue, so Ji Mo stopped thinking about it, and He Er told him that there was no problem with the date of birth, and that they were indeed dead.

That's it.

At night, I had to walk around the cemetery again, looking for shade grass. The kind of grass with hollow stems is the so-called shade grass. It shouldn’t be considered a serious category. Ji Mo used to be a medicine Teacher planter, after knowing more about plants, I will look back at the so-called hollow grass used at the beginning. In fact, there are several kinds of grass, but the difference is not bad, and the appearance is almost the same. see the outcome.

When it is pure grass, if you pull some of them out, you can see hollow grass stems. All these are classified as hollow grass, that is, Tongyin grass. Of course, this classification is not accurate. From another angle It is also correct to say.

Judging from the increase in professional knowledge points, you can know its correctness. There is no need for Ji Mo to bother to argue. What he has to do now is to try to find the kind of Yin Qi. In this way, the cemetery is the best chosen.

Strictly speaking, this cemetery outside Huicheng is not a family cemetery. The people around, mainly those in the city, would be buried here if they did not have their own "roots". There are some unnamed and unnamed corpses whose families are unknown, and they will always be discarded here.

The so-called "mass burial mounds" where a roll of straw mats are thrown at the mass graves can also refer to this cemetery. At one end of the cemetery is a serious tombstone. Every family will come here during the New Year and festivals when there are descendants. Sweeping a tomb or something, the other end is a standard mass grave, most of them are thrown there without straw mats, I don’t know if it’s been a long time, or because a small crooked grove nearby obscured the light, In short, it feels extremely cloudy, and few people go there during the day.

At night, you can still vaguely see the oily green light, not a phosphorous fire, but a pair of round green light like two light bulbs. Ji Mo suspects that it is the eyes of animals. Animals that can see at night may be wolves It was dogs, and most of the meat on the corpses were destroyed, and the other half were some scavengers or small animals.

It is also thanks to their efforts that the unburied corpses will not cause any epidemics. It has to be said that in this regard, people in this world really don't pay much attention to the relationship between epidemics and corpses.

Ji Mo first walked around the formal cemetery. There are only a few new tombs, and the other tombstones are a little crooked. This is because of the loss of sacrifices and repairs by later generations. There are depressions, and some tombs have naturally opened a dark hole because of this, as if waiting for people to look down.

Some of these tombs are natural, and some are the masterpieces of tomb robbers. The less particular tomb robbers don’t care to bury them after digging a hole. The soil there is missing. When it rains or something, it will cause a big disaster. The collapse, it looks very bad.

Walking here with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Huicheng will also close the city gate at night, Ji Mo is going to find shady grass here all night, he plans to start making paper of the highest quality That kind of paper figurines already have their birth date, so they should be more formal.

It is a soul garment, and it is also a soul arresting garment. The shopkeeper of the coffin shop does not know the meaning of the latter, so Ji Mo knows that this kind of industry taboo is really very old.

Maybe Uncle Li is the last person in the last branch. Apart from him, I am afraid that I am the only one who knows this.

No, maybe those more professional tomb robbers also know, otherwise Yang Feng wouldn't have asked to make paper figurines.

The cemetery here is often cleaned by people, there are not many shade grasses, and there is a shallow layer in Ji Mo's back basket, which has never been filled. If you want to make paper, it is still too little. Go there again, Ji Mo It is very psychologically shadowy. I glanced at the mass burial place during the day, and the bones were sticking out, which looked very miserable, not to mention that some of them were blackened as if they had not been cleaned. The rotten flesh was hanging, looking more and more terrifying.

Few people approach such a place during the day, let alone at night.

In Ji Mo's heart, he was actually a little afraid of those gods and ghosts. He looked over and saw the green light flickering in the faint phosphorescent fire, which was really scary.

If it’s a dog, it’s okay, but if it’s a wolf... In fact, dogs are not easy to deal with. This kind of dog that eats dead human flesh can’t be said to be more wolf-like. If it jumps up and bites, who knows what germs will be left behind!

Thinking of this, Ji Mo's footsteps became more and more hesitant, forget it, let's take a look again in the daytime.

Carrying a small lantern, he turned around the cemetery here twice, and stayed outside all night like a cemetery guard, waiting for the city gate to open at dawn, and then returned in a hurry.

After a full day's sleep during the day, Gu Xiaoshan called me to see the new wine in the afternoon. It was a verification again. The other party's attitude was no longer very enthusiastic, but it was Gu Erchu who hesitated and silently followed Ji Mo's footsteps Coming out, Ji Mo found out halfway, turned around and asked him what was the matter, and he ran away as soon as he turned his head, as if he had regretted it temporarily.

Ji Mo's face was full of helplessness, these people in their 20s behaved like this, they were really immature in ancient times, like a child.

When the evening was approaching, Ji Mo found He Er. He Er was playing money with people on the street. He could hear the sound of betting from a long distance, and it was not a big bet. There are more than a dozen of them, but they are killing time.

He swayed by the side, He Er's eyes were sharp, and he saw him all at once, walked out, and walked a little far away tacitly, before asking: "But what else do you need my help for?"

In the continuous transactions, the two are not to mention being friends, after all, they are a little closer than the other, and even if He Er is a little curious about the paper-making business, he is not too repulsed.

"I have something to ask you for help. The reward is not much, just help me go to collect some things, and I will follow."

Ji Mo never thought that he could get a helper for nothing, and it was certain that he would pay for it.

He Er was simply idle and idle, and asked him when he heard the words: "Didn't you go pick up some clothes?"

The first two transactions were really fresh in his memory. He really didn't know he could do that again. It wasn't that troublesome to meet the shopkeeper of the coffin shop before!

Oh, speaking of the shopkeeper of the coffin shop, He Er's eyes rolled: "Your paper-making is also a yin and yang business, why don't you say that the coffin shop is next, don't you usually get along well?"

"I don't know how to make coffins, and I don't have the capital, so why should I take over the coffin shop!"

Ji Mo answered honestly, and He Er sneered, "Okay—tell me, what's the specific matter."

"It has something to do with the clothes, and it needs some care." Ji Mo said vaguely, "It's a collection job, and it's not tiring, but I'm afraid of the dogs outside, so find someone to guard against it."

"Beat the dog!" He Er stroked his chin and pondered, "The dogs outside can't be eaten. Over there, it's next to the cemetery."

"It's either to beat the dog, or to prevent it from being bitten by the dog when weeding. I looked at it yesterday, and there seemed to be a lot of green eyes. I didn't dare to go alone. I asked you for a favor. Let me help you. If there are people, you can bring them with you. More people are safer, but I can’t give more for this reward. Otherwise, how about it, I can teach you the paper-making skills I know, not to mention apprentices. You can earn a living after learning it. means."

Counting with his fingers, Ji Mo now knows a lot of skills, but most of them are not easy to teach, and what's more, they don't waste too much time to learn practically, and they lack some prerequisites.

"Are you willing to teach?" He Er was surprised, this is Ji Mo's way of making a living, and he is not the kind of person who is waiting for seventy-eighty to die soon, so he doesn't argue?

Ji Mo waved his hand generously: "What is there that you don't want to teach? You just learned it. It's still up to you whether you can do it or not. I'm not afraid of being robbed of my job. If it's not possible, just change to another place. The world is so big, where can't it be done?" A bowl of rice."

Knowing how to craft is not afraid to go to the world.

He Eryi laughed when he heard that, and for the first time patted Ji Mo's shoulder without any taboo, and said, "Okay, then I'll help you for a while."
