Travel back to ancient times to be a beautician
Chapter 144 Chapter 144
"Where are you going?" Chu Qixun didn't seem to hear clearly, he still hunched over, and asked ignorantly, without the slightest energy.
"Feng Le Lou." With a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, Sunan spat out the word, Lin Jun frowned, and his eyes showed dissatisfaction.
Sunan's smile remained unchanged, and he pulled Lachu's seven-year-old clothes: "Let's go, let me tell you, I found a very interesting thing, this time I will take you there to open your eyes." Glancing at Lin Jun, he said with a smile, "You are also together."
"Why do you want to go to that kind of place?" Lin Jun looked displeased. How could he not know where Fenglelou is? Why did Sunan suddenly propose to go to the brothel, hiding his displeasure and jealousy in his heart, he thought, Later, he had to question those who followed him.
"This..." He had a sly look on his face, but he put a trick on his face, and instead of answering directly, he said with a playful smile: "Don't worry about it, anyway, just go with me when the time comes."
Lin Jun didn't know what his buns were selling, and he didn't approve, but he didn't object. When night fell on the second day, several people came to the Fengle Building.
The city of Yangzhou at night is more lively and noisy than in the daytime. The whole streets and alleys are brightly lit, and the bright candle lights smudge the air with a bit of heat.Walking on the street, the ears are filled with the soft laughter of women from the surrounding buildings.
The few people in Sunan were walking on the street, their good appearance and temperament were in stark contrast to the others. Along the way, they rejected many enthusiastic solicitors and walked straight to the front of Fengle Building.
Compared with other Qinlou and Chu Pavilions, this Fengle Building is no different in appearance.A three-story red building stands beside the street, with upturned eaves and bright lights inside the building. Occasionally, graceful figures are reflected on the window paper, which arouses people's infinite reverie.
Before they stepped into the building, a tortoise on the side of the street lit up his eyes and immediately came over:
"These young masters, do you want to come to Fengle Tower?" Mr. Gui said to Sunan obsequiously. No wonder he has sharp eyes. Among the three, Sunan is extraordinary in appearance, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, elegant and profound. Look is a romantic son.The two behind, although one is imposing, but his complexion is a little dark, seems to be displeased, the other son is younger, but his eyes are floating, his face is red, no matter how you look at it, he is unwilling.
It was the same guest officer who knew the way well, Gui Gong smiled and led the few golden goats in, the vague and indistinct singing and dancing sound suddenly became clear and distinct, and the smell of alcohol and powder mixed together, rushing towards him.
"Is there a cleaner place?" Sunan opened the folding fan and smiled slightly. His coquettish and unrestrained posture made people think that he was a regular visitor here. "Yes, yes, please come upstairs with me." Mr. Gui smiled and led the three of them to the private room on the third floor. Unlike the beautiful scenery outside, the room was very quiet, but the furnishings were very elegant.
"How many girls do you need to accompany me?" Mr. Gui smiled and poured a glass of wine for Sunan. Sunan separated the wine with a fan: "No need, bring a pot of good tea instead." After thinking about it, he made a thought Appearance: "I heard that Miss Huo Xiaolei from Fenglelou is both talented and beautiful. Xiaosheng has admired her for a long time. Can I invite her to see her?"
(This article has been discontinued for so long, and I dare not face reality. At first, I wanted to give up on myself, but in the end I was scolded by the editor, saying that I should finish the article anyway. There are about 5 to 6 words left in this article. It will be over, and there will be four extra episodes after that, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,the next update will be this weekend at the latest,and it will end directly at that time,the [-] extra episodes will be released together,probably next time Zhou, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, dare not face the truth.)
The author has something to say:
"This..." To Sunan's surprise, Mr. Gui showed hesitation when he heard his words: "Mr. Don't choose another girl. To tell you the truth, Mr. Xiaoman is not feeling well recently. Uncomfortable with guests."
Looking at Mr. Gui's flattering smile, Sunan's mouth twitched, but his eyes didn't smile, and he vividly interpreted a suave but somewhat cold son: "To tell you the truth, I have a good friend who used to I once had a relationship with Miss Xiaoman, and we met him after leaving Yangzhou, and I always heard him mention it several times. Since Miss Xiaoman is not feeling well, we don’t make it difficult, just invite her to come out and drink tea with us. How about chatting?"
Seeing that the tortoise was still hesitant, Sunan took a sip of tea, and slowly spit out from his mouth: "100 taels." Seeing that the tortoise's eyes flickered, but still did not agree, he began to slowly add chips: "200 taels." Two, just stay with us for an hour."
Mr. Gui opened his mouth, apparently very moved, Sunan gave him a half-smile look, and said for the last time: "300 taels, if you still don't have the chance to see his beauty, Xiaosheng will have to regret it, and continue if there is a chance."
Seeing that Sunan got up and was about to leave, Mr. Gui hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, don't, my lord, since you are interested, I will invite someone here." With a flattering smile on his face, he retreated from the room, leaving only The three sat quietly in the room.
Seventy's face still had a blush that hadn't dissipated, and his eyes were cloudy due to the high temperature in the room. He glared at Sunan, as if he had done something shady, and his eyes were full of accusations.
Sunan looked at him innocently, spread his hands and shrugged, he really didn't come here for the sake of beauty.But Chu Qixun was prejudiced against Sunan wholeheartedly. No matter what he said, he didn't believe it, so he could only sulk beside him. Just as they were complaining, there was a noise outside the door, and Sunan stopped fighting, sat upright, and his face became pale. Lost the demeanor of the original son.
A graceful figure walked in from the door, swaying like willow catkins in spring, a moon-white plain dress was put on the woman's body, the willow slender waist matched with the pair of eyes full of autumn water, making a lovely and pitiful woman The vivid interpretation of the image.
"Xiaoman has met you young masters." A soft and soft voice came from under the veil, Huo Xiaolei's face was covered with a layer of tulle, which just covered the face underneath, her forehead was covered by broken hair, only a pair of beautiful eyes were exposed, But I can also imagine that there must be a beauty under the veil.
Lin Jun frowned slightly, and ignored Huo Xiaolei's words. Chu Qixun was sulking and ignored her, but Sunan didn't realize it, and warmly greeted Huo Xiaolei to sit down.
"Miss Xiaoman, please sit down." Sunan said to her with a smile on her face, and Huo Xiaolei sat down obediently.Sunan was extremely enthusiastic and kept chatting with her. Huo Xiaolei wanted to talk to the other two, but hit a few soft nails. Seeing that the other two were not interested, she concentrated on talking to Sunan.
The image Sunan created is very good, the jade tree is facing the wind, gentle and considerate, like a veteran in love, he started to drink wine after a few words, one glass after another, Sunan would throw a few topics from time to time for the other two to continue, the room The stagnant atmosphere gradually eased a lot.
Sunan's skill in persuading wine is really incomparable, not only for others to drink, but also for himself. He often does it first as a respect, and drinks one cup after another subtly, and the two of them talk more and more deeply. His eyes were blurred, and he unconsciously began to talk about her past.
Sunan's face was flushed, but looking at his eyes with a trace of clarity, he knew that he was not drunk at all. Seeing that the timing was just right, he said, "Is it not worth it? Is it lucky that I can see Miss Xiaoman's true face?"
"This..." Huo Xiaolei was a little hesitant. She had explained just now when she entered the door that she was wearing a veil because of her physical discomfort. If she was sober, she would definitely refuse directly. Already a little confused, after Sunan's persuasion, he took off the veil.
Under the veil is indeed an exquisite and beautiful face, with beautiful makeup, which can be regarded as high-class beauty, but for some reason, Sunan observed something wrong after careful observation.
He had doubts in his heart, but he poured wine into Huo Xiaolei calmly. He didn't know how many glasses he had poured. Finally, Huo Xiaolei was overwhelmed and fell down on the table.
The remaining three people are still very sober. Lin Jun has internal strength, and his drinking capacity is not a problem for him, especially for Sunan.Only Chu Qixun was a little smug, took out something from his bosom and put it under his nose to sniff, and he suddenly became sober.
Sunan frowned and looked at Huo Xiaolei. He had felt that Huo Xiaolei was a little strange just now, and he didn't have time to observe it carefully.After thinking for a while, Chu Qixun cautiously asked Chu Qixun to take out the drug, put it under Huo Xiaolei's nose and shook it.
Chu Qixun's eyes are not right anymore, looking at Sunan's movements like a pervert.When Sunan saw it, she felt helpless and gave him a blank look: "What are you thinking?" He was doing serious things, okay?
Huo Xiaolei was picked up and placed on the bed on her back, her face was facing the roof, and a face was presented in front of Sunan without reservation.
Sunan dipped some hot water on her handkerchief, and gently wiped it on Huo Xiaolei's face. The powder on the face was gradually wiped off, revealing the original face under the makeup.
It's a pretty good face, but it's not as stunning as Sunan imagined. Sure enough, this woman still can't do without smearing.
In Chu Qixun's eyes, Sunan's behavior was really weird, first he put the beauty down, then carried her to the bed, then helped her remove her makeup, looked over and over for a few times, he found that Sunan's complexion gradually turned ugly When he got up, the light in his eyes flickered, he fell into deep thought, thinking about something.
Lin Jun approached, looked at Huo Xiaolei's face, found no problem, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Sunan was silent for a while, but beckoned to Chu Qixun to let him approach, pointed to a section of red line near his neck and said, "Come and see, what is this?"
After hearing about it, Chu Qixun took a closer look and saw some unevenness around the red line, which seemed to be scars, but he couldn't be sure, so he could only make his own guess.Sunan thought for a moment after hearing his opinion, but didn't say anything. Instead, she used the powder she carried with her to restore Huo Xiaolei's makeup from memory, and then put the veil back on.
Sunan moved so fast that he didn't notice at all. Below Huo Xiaolei's face, there seemed to be something alive just now.
But he seemed to think of something again, and said to Chu Qixun: "Tear off her clothes, and help me see if there is a spindle-shaped birthmark on her chest."
"What?!" Chu Qixun thought he had heard it wrong, but he didn't expect Sunan to be serious, his face turned red immediately, and he yelled at him: "Why don't you see for yourself!"
He said confidently: "How can I do this kind of thing by myself? You are a doctor, and the doctor has a parental heart. How can there be gender distinction?" When the man noticed it, he quickly lowered his voice and said, "Okay, stop making noise, hurry up and watch, we have other things to do after watching."
Chu Qixun was really angry, but seeing Lin Jun was also urging him with his eyes, he stepped forward and pulled off Huo Xiaolei's clothes aggrievedly. In front of him was a white chest, Sunan glanced at the side and saw the snow-white skin There was no trace on it, he frowned and said, "Okay, okay, pull it up."
Chu Qixun quickly restored the clothes to their original shape, and walked aside sullenly.Sunan nodded, he had achieved the purpose of his trip, so he called the servants outside, saying that Miss Xiaolei went to sleep first because of too much alcohol, and asked the servants to settle the bill for them before leaving from the brothel.
Before leaving, the servant gave them a strange look, thinking that he had never seen such a strange guest who asked the women to drink but not stay overnight, and even drank their girls down.
Sitting in the carriage, Lin Juncai asked about the strange action just now.Sunan smiled and nodded, but before he said it, he still had a trick. He still had one thing to clarify: "Seventy, do you know that there is a way to change faces in this world?"
Sunan's words surprised the other two people in the car. Chu Qixun didn't want to pay attention to him because of what happened just now. Hearing his question, he replied calmly: "The theory of face-changing only exists in legends. How can you believe these nonsense."
But Sunan was thoughtful: "What if there is really such a thing as face-changing in this world?"
"Impossible." Chu Qixun resolutely denied, racked his brains to calculate in his mind, and said very tangled: "However, I heard that there is a so-called face-changing method in a medical book." In Sunan's questioning It was only then that Chu Qixun revealed which medical book it was: "I heard that it is from that "Holy Hand Medicine Classic"."
"Isn't that book of medical skills regarded as a grand ceremony by you and other doctors, how could it record such weird medical skills?" Lin Jun frowned and asked.
"It is true that it is regarded as a grand ceremony, but it also records some weird medical skills, which are half righteous and half evil." Chu Qixun replied, and it is precisely because of this that this medical book is sought after by everyone, and countless people in the medical field If you want to get this book, see if what is said in this book is true.
"I mean, I haven't read that medical book, and I don't know if there is any record of this kind of sorcery." Chu Qixun shook his head and said.
Sunan rubbed his chin thoughtfully: "I don't know if there's any mention of changing faces in that magic book, but Huo Xiaolei's face must have been tampered with just now."
His words were like a boulder dropped from a calm lake, leaving ripples in the hearts of the two of them. Chu Qixun looked at Sunan with hesitation, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Sunan curled her lips and said, "That's what I meant. I suspect that there are people in this world who really know how to change faces, and Huo Xiaolei's face has been changed."
His conjecture is indeed nonsense, but it is not untenable when he thinks about it carefully. He found that Huo Xiaolei had a small red scar on her chin, and it spread to the back of her head. .Moreover, the face looked a little weird, and the swelling was unnatural, as if it was inflamed.
He remembered what the scholar in the teahouse said to him not long ago, and a bold guess emerged in his heart: Could it be that someone cut off his wife's face and grafted it onto Huo Xiaolei's face?
Sunan himself is also in a dilemma. Although he speculates so, such a face-changing technique is obviously impossible with the current medical level. Now that Huo Xiaoman really changed his face, recovery alone is a big problem. For half a year, it is absolutely impossible to do that kind of appearance.
Patting his head irritably, he lamented: "Hey! If you can let me personally, you will know if what I said is true."
"How do you test?" Chu Qixun was curious.
"Naturally, take a knife and cut off her face, and you will know whether what I said is true." There must be a difference between the face-changing and the original one, but Sunan's answer is too horrifying, not surprising He got another pair of horrified eyes.
"What I said is true, forget it..." Sunan gave up talking to him, and didn't want to talk to him too much, thinking carefully.
Face-changing is not impossible. In his era, gender, appearance, height, etc. were not a problem. Although face-changing is complicated and difficult, it is still possible.
But if it was changed in such ancient times, it would be a bit unimaginable.Sunan guessed, could it be that there is something magical about this ancient medical technique that he doesn't know?
But Chu Qixun was caught in the words of Sunan and couldn't extricate himself. He muttered to himself, staring at one place with slack eyes, faintly revealing fanaticism: "If it is true, then it means that what is recorded in the medical book is true , is there really a face-changing technique??"
Sunan slapped him directly on the back of the head and woke him up. With a "slap", Chu Qixun came back to his senses and glared: "Why did you hit me?"
He replied calmly: "Wake you up."
Sunan thought for a moment, and said: "If the face-changing technique is real, then Huo Xiaolei must not be the only one." Sunan couldn't help but think of the murder case he heard before. Some corpses lost their faces for no reason when they were found, otherwise It was his appearance that was completely ruined. Thinking about it now, there might be some connection between the two.
He asked: "In Yangzhou City, where is the place where the most corpses are stored?"
There are many places where corpses are stored in ancient times, but if we say that the most concentrated place is Yizhuang.Sunan learned that there are 5 or 6 large and small yizhuang in Yangzhou City. There are not only public buildings to store unidentified corpses, but also private yizhuang invested by local wealthy businessmen and gentry to cultivate good deeds for themselves.
Sunan really wanted to go to Yizhuang to check it out immediately, but considering that it was getting late, it would be inconvenient for them to go there, so they had to go back to their residence to rest for a night, and discuss it tomorrow morning.
Early the next morning, Chu Qixun originally wanted to go to Yizhuang with Sunan, but because he had important matters to go to Jiangfu today, Lin Jun couldn't go with him for some reason, so Sunan had to give up.
Just before going out, the guard brought a man to Sunan.
"This is?" Su Nan was puzzled, and the guard quickly said: "Sir, this is a servant of the Yangzhou government office, named Xu Mingru, who was specially called by the general from the government office to assist the Lord." Xu Mingru stepped forward immediately, He bowed to Sunan.
This... Sunan's head got a little bigger, the smile on his face remained the same, but he started to mutter in his heart.
He went here to take a look, maybe he wanted to do some other tricks and send a servant to follow him, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
It's just that it was good intentions for Lin Jun to send someone to follow him. If he refused, other troubles might arise.Thinking this way in my heart, I saluted with a smile on my face: "It turns out that it is Xu Yuzuo, so I will trouble you."
Xu Yuzuo quickly returned the gift: "Mr. Su is polite."
With the newcomer, Sunan didn't delay too much, and was ready to go to today's destination. At this time, Xu Yuzuo's usefulness came. He followed Sunan and began to talk about the situation of Yizhuang in Yangzhou City: "Within the scope of Yangzhou City University , a total of six yizhuang, including one in the south of the city, one in the north of the city, and one in the west of the city, and the rest were built by gentry and located in distant towns."
"Is it very far?" Sunan was puzzled.
"Compared with the few Yi Zhuang near the suburbs, the gentry built it is naturally farther away. If it is riding a horse, it will take about half a day." Xu Yu explained patiently: "I don't know Mr. Su's first stop, where he wants to go Zuoyizhuang."
It doesn't matter to Sunan, the ones that are closest must be gone: "I'll go to the south of the city first." After deciding, the few people quickly got into the carriage and headed to Yizhuang in the south of the city.
On the way, Sunan also got a general idea of some of the Yizhuang's situation. "Currently there are more than 30 unnamed corpses in Yizhuang in the south of the city, all of which died in the past month and have not yet been claimed." Xu Wuzuo informed that the entire Yizhuang near Yangzhou City currently has no more than a hundred corpses in total. If you want to go forward If you have time to find it, you can only go to the mass graves.
After driving for about half an hour, the carriage entered a dense forest after leaving Yangzhou City, and arrived at the destination not long after.
Yizhuang in the south of the city is a house surrounded by high walls and lush trees.It was a cloudy day, and the surrounding trees blocked most of the sunlight, making the place look gloomy.
After Sunan and the others got off the carriage, Xu Yuzuo went to call the door first, grabbed the knocker on the copper head and knocked several times, and there was an echo soon
"Come here." The door opened a gap, and an old man with deep wrinkles revealed half of his face, staring at his messy hairstyle, and seemed to be cursing, but closed his mouth when he looked at the person in front of him .
"Hey, isn't this Xu Wuzuo? Welcome, why did you come to Mr. Zhong today." With a smile on his face, the old man opened the door enthusiastically, and walked out with a stooped back.
Xu Wuzuo only nodded slightly in response to him, and then introduced to Sunan, "Mr. Su, this is the caretaker of Yizhuang in the south of the city. We all call him Zhong Laoer. If you have any questions, just ask him." Yes."
Sunan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Hello, old man."
Zhong Laoer nodded and bowed, and said with a flattering smile: "This gentleman really beats me, come, come, everyone, don't stand at the door, come in, come in."
A few people from Sunan stepped into the courtyard and took a little look at the yizhuang. The yizhuang has high walls and blue tiles. There is a wide yard when you enter the door. It has a good view. The building looks old, and the moss all over the yard makes the whole yard very old, even the porch is a bit gloomy.
Taking advantage of the time when Sunan burned the yard to death, Xu Yuzuo pulled Zhong Laoer past him and didn't know what to explain. Looking back, his attitude towards Sunan became better and better: "This Mr. Su wants to come to Yizhuang to find something. people?"
Sunan nodded: "Yes, please ask the old man to lead the way."
With a smile on Zhong Laoer's face, he asked Sunan to follow him and take him to the backyard.On the one hand, he was still talking about the history of this Yizhuang, saying that it was an ancestral hall built by a local big family hundreds of years ago.Because it is not a family ancestral hall, it was later donated to the county government at that time as a righteous village, and gradually evolved into a storage for corpses.
There are several houses behind the yard. These houses are used to store corpses. The rooms are spacious and packed with more than a dozen coffins. A gust of wind blows through the hall, making the few people except Sunan shudder.
Zhong Laoer led Sunan to one of the houses, and said flatteringly: "These coffins are temporarily unowned. If no one claims them after more than a month, most of them will be sent to mass graves for burial. It’s a newly delivered corpse in recent days, you see…”
Speaking of the latter, Zhong Lao Er was a little embarrassed. The causes of death of the corpses inside were all kinds of strange. Some were reduced to the outside and were eaten by wild animals, and some were inexplicably killed by human vendettas and their appearance was ruined. This lack of arms and legs, could it be that the person in front of him Does the handsome young man really want to check them out one by one?
Thinking of such a scene, Zhong Lao Er felt weird, but to his surprise, Sunan actually rolled up his sleeves and said to the guards beside him, "Help me open all these coffins, I want to see them one by one. "
"This..." The guard hesitated, but looking at Sunan's appearance, he didn't seem to be joking, so he gritted his teeth and pushed the door open.
"Mr. Su, who are you going to find? You may as well tell me, and I can help you." Xu Yu asked with a frown. Sunan hadn't told him everything before, and he seemed to be looking for a certain corpse.
Sunan smiled: "I'm looking for it, but this person is a bit weird, I can only be sure, Xu Yuzuo just waits aside, if there is a need, Su will definitely not be polite."
Xu Wuzuo didn't know what Sunan was up to, seeing him mysterious, he felt a little uncomfortable, but because of face, he could only nod and stand aside.
After entering the room, there was an obvious smell of rotting corpses. Sunan's face contorted for a while, and soon returned to normal.His five senses were already stronger than ordinary people, and it was really torture for him to stay in such a place.
The corpses in this Yizhuang are indeed in different shapes, with severed limbs, bloody flesh, and gloomy faces... Before Xu Yuzuo asked for help, Sunan refused, and now he had to stand aside and watch Sunan's movements carefully.
He took out a roll of white cloth strips from the wooden box he carried with him, wrapped his hands carefully, and then looked through each coffin, the first thing he looked at was the head.I saw that Sunan carefully turned over the faces of the corpses. The delay for each corpse was not long, and it took about a cup of tea to replace the corpse. In this way, I browsed through about 30 corpses, two rooms Later, the situation finally changed.
"Huh?" When he reached the third room, Sunan finally found something, which attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
"What did Mr. Su find?" Zhong Laoer approached eagerly and asked, and the few people beside him also moved over curiously.
Xu Wuzuo looked at the corpse that surprised Sunan, and saw that it was a charred corpse whose face could no longer be recognized, leaving only the intact skin the size of a fingernail, and the whole body was burnt badly.
Sunan was silent for a moment, and said to Xu Yuzuo: "Please Xu Yuzuo to open my box and help me get something."
Xu Wuzuo opened the box according to Sunan's words, but he was taken aback. He saw that there were many strange utensils in the box, including a silver knife that was not as wide as a finger.According to Sunan's instructions, he handed him a small knife with a thin handle that was only the length of an adult man's palm.
This thing is beaten very thin.The small knife with a thin handle seemed to be shining a light in the sun, and it felt sharp when looking at it.
What happened next made Xu Wuzuo a little unbearable. Sunan put the thin-handled knife behind the ear of the corpse's face, and then swiped, picked, and slid slowly, and slowly wiped the entire face of the corpse. Peeled off.
Xu Wuzuo gasped, he read right, Sunan really slowly peeled off the face of the corpse.I saw that Sunan's movements seemed to be very skillful, but the peeled off face was not complete because of the fire, it was empty, and the empty eye sockets were even more creepy.
On the other hand, Sunan's expression was vaguely excited: "Finally found it."
It was not in vain for him to see so many corpses, and he finally found out that someone was secretly trying to change the face.
Before he looked at Huo Xiaolei's face, he felt a little strange. There was a red line around Huo Xiaolei's chin that surrounded the entire face. Sunan knew very well that it was clearly a scar.In other words, someone once used something like a scalpel to draw a circle on her face.
It's not possible if it's just a simple scratch, but I just heard from the scholar before that Huo Xiaolei's face is very similar to his wife's. It is very doubtful.
Moreover, although the state of Huo Xiaolei's face was well covered up with makeup, Sunan still felt that something was wrong. He had done many plastic surgeries in the past, and Huo Xiaolei's current state was a bit like the sequelae left after skin grafting.
But he understands that things like face-changing that tend to be demonized are difficult to succeed in ancient times. If the effect of Huo Xiaolei is to be achieved, the doctor must go through many experiments. If the experiment fails, maybe it will die.
Since he died, there must be a corpse, which became the product of the failure of the face-changing technique. Sunan remembered Zhong Yongchun's talk about demons who specialize in poaching people's faces.Because the face-changing technique involves peeling off the skin of a person, those corpses lacking skin must have been deliberately done by someone in order not to expose what they were doing.
And the corpse in front of him seemed to have died from an unknown fire, but only he knew that this person must have suffered a lot during his life.After all, putting on a new face is not an easy task. The new face cannot stick to this person's face obediently. The body's resistance caused many complications when he was alive, and it may be one of the complications. let him die eventually.It is also possible that the unknown doctor saw that the experiment had failed, so he killed the person directly to prevent the news from leaking out, and then pretended to die in various ways.
Sunan felt that the latter conjecture was very possible, but the people around him still looked at him in horror, as if he was some heinous pervert, smiled helplessly, and just explained what he wanted to everyone.
Everyone is ignorant, if anyone really understands, it is Xu Yuzuo. "You mean, someone specially used these people for face-changing experiments, and after the experiment failed, they killed them and pretended to die in other ways?"
Xu Wuzuo couldn't believe it, but Sunan didn't seem to be fake, and his words were very logical. He was still holding the skin that had just been peeled off. It was said that it was someone else's face, but it was somewhat authentic.
He was dubious, and Sunan waved his hand to signal to continue, and the corpse was also marked.
Sunan guessed that since there was one corpse, there must be a second one, but unfortunately, after searching the entire Yizhuang, there was none.A few people had no choice but to go to the next Yizhuang.He was very lucky, and found a dead body with a problem in the remaining two yizhuang villages, and was transported to the yizhuang in the south of the city.
The two corpses can already explain the problem. It was late at night when he returned to his residence, and he told Lin Jun and Chu Qixun what he discovered during the day.
This kind of question is a bit obvious, Chu Qixun still hesitated, Sunan knew that he might not believe it, so he said to him: "If you don't believe it, why not accompany me to the scene tomorrow, and see it with your own eyes, then you will know what I said is true Fake."
It was Su Yang's master, Mr. Xie Hongyi, who heard what Sunan said, thought carefully, and suddenly remembered something: "Speaking of which, this behavior is very similar to a person I heard in the past."
"Who?" Mr. Xie immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"I can't remember what that man's real name is. He is called an "evil doctor". Although he has excellent medical skills, his actions are unpredictable and devoid of conscience. He often captures living people to experiment with medical skills. Since he suddenly disappeared five or sixty years ago, No one has known his whereabouts for so many years."
In Mr. Xie's narration, this "evil doctor" was originally a disciple of a master medical doctor who was well-known in the world at that time. Unfortunately, his mind was not right, and he finally fell into evil ways. Loyal and unfilial disciples. "I heard that that person did something, transplanting an ape arm to a human body. After being discovered, he was regarded as evil by the martial arts at that time, and his master even threatened to drive him out of the sect.
"What's the result?" Su Yang was also at the scene. Hearing what the master said, he urged to inquire.
"Of course he died. At that time, there were rumors that he fell off a cliff during the pursuit. Although no body was found, his name has never been heard in the world since then."
Sunan pondered: "No." There are indeed similarities in the form of these two people. He can't be sure whether they are the same person, but there is a problem.
After this person finished the experiment, he put the corpses in various disguises. Leaving aside the appearance of Bailiu Town, the few disguises he found today were very good, even if they were used by others, they might not be able to detect them.If it's just one or two people, it's absolutely impossible to do such a situation. Behind it, there must be a force to help cover it up.
Hearing what Sunan said, several people in the room were shocked.
"It's just that the man is in Yangzhou, which surprised me." The person who had such a trick might have come here for the "Holy Hand Medicine Classic". Thinking of Mrs. Jiang's face burns, if the man wanted to replace her A face is not impossible.
Chu Qixun's face was half-green and half-white, with sweat on his forehead, Sunan quickly comforted him: "These are just speculations, don't think too much about it." But it was hard to calm down, if that person really did it for that This medical scriptures come, he is very likely to meet in the game.
When encountering such a monster, he was really not sure at all.
Chu Qixun nodded absently, hesitated to speak later, and said to Sunan: "Well...I want to go to Yizhuang with you tomorrow, is that okay?"
In fact, not only the [-]s are curious, but the rest of the people are also very curious after listening to Sunan's description. According to him, the face-changing technique is absolutely perfect, directly peel off the whole skin of a person, and then replace it with another face , is simply unheard of.
On the second day, several people came to Yizhuang in the south of the city again, and came to the place where the two corpses were placed. Seeing that there were so many distinguished guests suddenly coming to Yizhuang, Zhong Laoer stood aside in fear, waiting for orders.
Yesterday, Sunan found another woman's body. It was well covered up, her body was swollen from the bubbles, and her face was even more bloated. It seems that she was also a beautiful woman before she was alive.
Even Sunan had to admit that the man's craftsmanship had indeed reached a level of proficiency.However, this kind of sky-defying technique could not be perfected to a greater or lesser extent, which finally caused these people to die in Huangquan.
In front of several people, Sunan peeled off the face of one of the women. From being half-believing at the beginning to half-believing later, the next few people fell into deep thought.
Lin Jun's face was not particularly good-looking, and he glanced at Sunan not far away. The latter raised his eyebrows, understood what he meant, and took the opportunity to walk aside, wanting to hear what Lin Jun wanted to say to him.
It didn't take long for Lin Jun to follow, and when he saw him, he told him what was in his mind one by one: "Do you want to catch that person?"
Lin Jun nodded, with a flash of worry in his eyes. That medical scripture was what Chu Qixun asked for. In fact, another treasure that Master Jiang brought out this time is said to be another clue to the treasure.The timing of that person's appearance was so coincidental, and his actions were treacherous. Lin Jun guessed that this person might have something to do with the Secret Society, otherwise, it would be very difficult to have the power to do this kind of thing now.
Sunan also thinks what he said makes sense. The secret meeting has been hidden for many years, and it can't be wiped out overnight. The wildfire is endless, and the spring breeze blows again, but how to burn down the wildfire with its roots, Sunan really dare not promise .
However, it doesn't mean that Sunan has nothing to do with this person hiding in the dark. He told Lin Jun his thoughts. It is not difficult to find this person. The first line is the former Huo Xiaolei. If Huo Xiaolei changes There is really that person's handwriting behind the face, and it may not be difficult to follow the clues.
Huo Xiaolei is a test subject. Since it is a test subject, it must be monitored from time to time. That person must have a special way to contact Huo Xiaolei. If you follow her route in reverse, you should be able to find out the identity of that person.
Another way is to participate in the competition. Since that person keeps experimenting with changing faces, he must have a fanatical pursuit of medical skills.That person will definitely not let go of that "Holy Hand Medicine Classic". With that person's level, at the end of the competition, it is almost possible to determine who that person is.
The two were discussing, but they suddenly heard Chu Qixun calling him from somewhere: "Su Nan, Sunan, come and take a look!!"
"Feng Le Lou." With a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, Sunan spat out the word, Lin Jun frowned, and his eyes showed dissatisfaction.
Sunan's smile remained unchanged, and he pulled Lachu's seven-year-old clothes: "Let's go, let me tell you, I found a very interesting thing, this time I will take you there to open your eyes." Glancing at Lin Jun, he said with a smile, "You are also together."
"Why do you want to go to that kind of place?" Lin Jun looked displeased. How could he not know where Fenglelou is? Why did Sunan suddenly propose to go to the brothel, hiding his displeasure and jealousy in his heart, he thought, Later, he had to question those who followed him.
"This..." He had a sly look on his face, but he put a trick on his face, and instead of answering directly, he said with a playful smile: "Don't worry about it, anyway, just go with me when the time comes."
Lin Jun didn't know what his buns were selling, and he didn't approve, but he didn't object. When night fell on the second day, several people came to the Fengle Building.
The city of Yangzhou at night is more lively and noisy than in the daytime. The whole streets and alleys are brightly lit, and the bright candle lights smudge the air with a bit of heat.Walking on the street, the ears are filled with the soft laughter of women from the surrounding buildings.
The few people in Sunan were walking on the street, their good appearance and temperament were in stark contrast to the others. Along the way, they rejected many enthusiastic solicitors and walked straight to the front of Fengle Building.
Compared with other Qinlou and Chu Pavilions, this Fengle Building is no different in appearance.A three-story red building stands beside the street, with upturned eaves and bright lights inside the building. Occasionally, graceful figures are reflected on the window paper, which arouses people's infinite reverie.
Before they stepped into the building, a tortoise on the side of the street lit up his eyes and immediately came over:
"These young masters, do you want to come to Fengle Tower?" Mr. Gui said to Sunan obsequiously. No wonder he has sharp eyes. Among the three, Sunan is extraordinary in appearance, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, elegant and profound. Look is a romantic son.The two behind, although one is imposing, but his complexion is a little dark, seems to be displeased, the other son is younger, but his eyes are floating, his face is red, no matter how you look at it, he is unwilling.
It was the same guest officer who knew the way well, Gui Gong smiled and led the few golden goats in, the vague and indistinct singing and dancing sound suddenly became clear and distinct, and the smell of alcohol and powder mixed together, rushing towards him.
"Is there a cleaner place?" Sunan opened the folding fan and smiled slightly. His coquettish and unrestrained posture made people think that he was a regular visitor here. "Yes, yes, please come upstairs with me." Mr. Gui smiled and led the three of them to the private room on the third floor. Unlike the beautiful scenery outside, the room was very quiet, but the furnishings were very elegant.
"How many girls do you need to accompany me?" Mr. Gui smiled and poured a glass of wine for Sunan. Sunan separated the wine with a fan: "No need, bring a pot of good tea instead." After thinking about it, he made a thought Appearance: "I heard that Miss Huo Xiaolei from Fenglelou is both talented and beautiful. Xiaosheng has admired her for a long time. Can I invite her to see her?"
(This article has been discontinued for so long, and I dare not face reality. At first, I wanted to give up on myself, but in the end I was scolded by the editor, saying that I should finish the article anyway. There are about 5 to 6 words left in this article. It will be over, and there will be four extra episodes after that, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,the next update will be this weekend at the latest,and it will end directly at that time,the [-] extra episodes will be released together,probably next time Zhou, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, dare not face the truth.)
The author has something to say:
"This..." To Sunan's surprise, Mr. Gui showed hesitation when he heard his words: "Mr. Don't choose another girl. To tell you the truth, Mr. Xiaoman is not feeling well recently. Uncomfortable with guests."
Looking at Mr. Gui's flattering smile, Sunan's mouth twitched, but his eyes didn't smile, and he vividly interpreted a suave but somewhat cold son: "To tell you the truth, I have a good friend who used to I once had a relationship with Miss Xiaoman, and we met him after leaving Yangzhou, and I always heard him mention it several times. Since Miss Xiaoman is not feeling well, we don’t make it difficult, just invite her to come out and drink tea with us. How about chatting?"
Seeing that the tortoise was still hesitant, Sunan took a sip of tea, and slowly spit out from his mouth: "100 taels." Seeing that the tortoise's eyes flickered, but still did not agree, he began to slowly add chips: "200 taels." Two, just stay with us for an hour."
Mr. Gui opened his mouth, apparently very moved, Sunan gave him a half-smile look, and said for the last time: "300 taels, if you still don't have the chance to see his beauty, Xiaosheng will have to regret it, and continue if there is a chance."
Seeing that Sunan got up and was about to leave, Mr. Gui hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, don't, my lord, since you are interested, I will invite someone here." With a flattering smile on his face, he retreated from the room, leaving only The three sat quietly in the room.
Seventy's face still had a blush that hadn't dissipated, and his eyes were cloudy due to the high temperature in the room. He glared at Sunan, as if he had done something shady, and his eyes were full of accusations.
Sunan looked at him innocently, spread his hands and shrugged, he really didn't come here for the sake of beauty.But Chu Qixun was prejudiced against Sunan wholeheartedly. No matter what he said, he didn't believe it, so he could only sulk beside him. Just as they were complaining, there was a noise outside the door, and Sunan stopped fighting, sat upright, and his face became pale. Lost the demeanor of the original son.
A graceful figure walked in from the door, swaying like willow catkins in spring, a moon-white plain dress was put on the woman's body, the willow slender waist matched with the pair of eyes full of autumn water, making a lovely and pitiful woman The vivid interpretation of the image.
"Xiaoman has met you young masters." A soft and soft voice came from under the veil, Huo Xiaolei's face was covered with a layer of tulle, which just covered the face underneath, her forehead was covered by broken hair, only a pair of beautiful eyes were exposed, But I can also imagine that there must be a beauty under the veil.
Lin Jun frowned slightly, and ignored Huo Xiaolei's words. Chu Qixun was sulking and ignored her, but Sunan didn't realize it, and warmly greeted Huo Xiaolei to sit down.
"Miss Xiaoman, please sit down." Sunan said to her with a smile on her face, and Huo Xiaolei sat down obediently.Sunan was extremely enthusiastic and kept chatting with her. Huo Xiaolei wanted to talk to the other two, but hit a few soft nails. Seeing that the other two were not interested, she concentrated on talking to Sunan.
The image Sunan created is very good, the jade tree is facing the wind, gentle and considerate, like a veteran in love, he started to drink wine after a few words, one glass after another, Sunan would throw a few topics from time to time for the other two to continue, the room The stagnant atmosphere gradually eased a lot.
Sunan's skill in persuading wine is really incomparable, not only for others to drink, but also for himself. He often does it first as a respect, and drinks one cup after another subtly, and the two of them talk more and more deeply. His eyes were blurred, and he unconsciously began to talk about her past.
Sunan's face was flushed, but looking at his eyes with a trace of clarity, he knew that he was not drunk at all. Seeing that the timing was just right, he said, "Is it not worth it? Is it lucky that I can see Miss Xiaoman's true face?"
"This..." Huo Xiaolei was a little hesitant. She had explained just now when she entered the door that she was wearing a veil because of her physical discomfort. If she was sober, she would definitely refuse directly. Already a little confused, after Sunan's persuasion, he took off the veil.
Under the veil is indeed an exquisite and beautiful face, with beautiful makeup, which can be regarded as high-class beauty, but for some reason, Sunan observed something wrong after careful observation.
He had doubts in his heart, but he poured wine into Huo Xiaolei calmly. He didn't know how many glasses he had poured. Finally, Huo Xiaolei was overwhelmed and fell down on the table.
The remaining three people are still very sober. Lin Jun has internal strength, and his drinking capacity is not a problem for him, especially for Sunan.Only Chu Qixun was a little smug, took out something from his bosom and put it under his nose to sniff, and he suddenly became sober.
Sunan frowned and looked at Huo Xiaolei. He had felt that Huo Xiaolei was a little strange just now, and he didn't have time to observe it carefully.After thinking for a while, Chu Qixun cautiously asked Chu Qixun to take out the drug, put it under Huo Xiaolei's nose and shook it.
Chu Qixun's eyes are not right anymore, looking at Sunan's movements like a pervert.When Sunan saw it, she felt helpless and gave him a blank look: "What are you thinking?" He was doing serious things, okay?
Huo Xiaolei was picked up and placed on the bed on her back, her face was facing the roof, and a face was presented in front of Sunan without reservation.
Sunan dipped some hot water on her handkerchief, and gently wiped it on Huo Xiaolei's face. The powder on the face was gradually wiped off, revealing the original face under the makeup.
It's a pretty good face, but it's not as stunning as Sunan imagined. Sure enough, this woman still can't do without smearing.
In Chu Qixun's eyes, Sunan's behavior was really weird, first he put the beauty down, then carried her to the bed, then helped her remove her makeup, looked over and over for a few times, he found that Sunan's complexion gradually turned ugly When he got up, the light in his eyes flickered, he fell into deep thought, thinking about something.
Lin Jun approached, looked at Huo Xiaolei's face, found no problem, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Sunan was silent for a while, but beckoned to Chu Qixun to let him approach, pointed to a section of red line near his neck and said, "Come and see, what is this?"
After hearing about it, Chu Qixun took a closer look and saw some unevenness around the red line, which seemed to be scars, but he couldn't be sure, so he could only make his own guess.Sunan thought for a moment after hearing his opinion, but didn't say anything. Instead, she used the powder she carried with her to restore Huo Xiaolei's makeup from memory, and then put the veil back on.
Sunan moved so fast that he didn't notice at all. Below Huo Xiaolei's face, there seemed to be something alive just now.
But he seemed to think of something again, and said to Chu Qixun: "Tear off her clothes, and help me see if there is a spindle-shaped birthmark on her chest."
"What?!" Chu Qixun thought he had heard it wrong, but he didn't expect Sunan to be serious, his face turned red immediately, and he yelled at him: "Why don't you see for yourself!"
He said confidently: "How can I do this kind of thing by myself? You are a doctor, and the doctor has a parental heart. How can there be gender distinction?" When the man noticed it, he quickly lowered his voice and said, "Okay, stop making noise, hurry up and watch, we have other things to do after watching."
Chu Qixun was really angry, but seeing Lin Jun was also urging him with his eyes, he stepped forward and pulled off Huo Xiaolei's clothes aggrievedly. In front of him was a white chest, Sunan glanced at the side and saw the snow-white skin There was no trace on it, he frowned and said, "Okay, okay, pull it up."
Chu Qixun quickly restored the clothes to their original shape, and walked aside sullenly.Sunan nodded, he had achieved the purpose of his trip, so he called the servants outside, saying that Miss Xiaolei went to sleep first because of too much alcohol, and asked the servants to settle the bill for them before leaving from the brothel.
Before leaving, the servant gave them a strange look, thinking that he had never seen such a strange guest who asked the women to drink but not stay overnight, and even drank their girls down.
Sitting in the carriage, Lin Juncai asked about the strange action just now.Sunan smiled and nodded, but before he said it, he still had a trick. He still had one thing to clarify: "Seventy, do you know that there is a way to change faces in this world?"
Sunan's words surprised the other two people in the car. Chu Qixun didn't want to pay attention to him because of what happened just now. Hearing his question, he replied calmly: "The theory of face-changing only exists in legends. How can you believe these nonsense."
But Sunan was thoughtful: "What if there is really such a thing as face-changing in this world?"
"Impossible." Chu Qixun resolutely denied, racked his brains to calculate in his mind, and said very tangled: "However, I heard that there is a so-called face-changing method in a medical book." In Sunan's questioning It was only then that Chu Qixun revealed which medical book it was: "I heard that it is from that "Holy Hand Medicine Classic"."
"Isn't that book of medical skills regarded as a grand ceremony by you and other doctors, how could it record such weird medical skills?" Lin Jun frowned and asked.
"It is true that it is regarded as a grand ceremony, but it also records some weird medical skills, which are half righteous and half evil." Chu Qixun replied, and it is precisely because of this that this medical book is sought after by everyone, and countless people in the medical field If you want to get this book, see if what is said in this book is true.
"I mean, I haven't read that medical book, and I don't know if there is any record of this kind of sorcery." Chu Qixun shook his head and said.
Sunan rubbed his chin thoughtfully: "I don't know if there's any mention of changing faces in that magic book, but Huo Xiaolei's face must have been tampered with just now."
His words were like a boulder dropped from a calm lake, leaving ripples in the hearts of the two of them. Chu Qixun looked at Sunan with hesitation, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Sunan curled her lips and said, "That's what I meant. I suspect that there are people in this world who really know how to change faces, and Huo Xiaolei's face has been changed."
His conjecture is indeed nonsense, but it is not untenable when he thinks about it carefully. He found that Huo Xiaolei had a small red scar on her chin, and it spread to the back of her head. .Moreover, the face looked a little weird, and the swelling was unnatural, as if it was inflamed.
He remembered what the scholar in the teahouse said to him not long ago, and a bold guess emerged in his heart: Could it be that someone cut off his wife's face and grafted it onto Huo Xiaolei's face?
Sunan himself is also in a dilemma. Although he speculates so, such a face-changing technique is obviously impossible with the current medical level. Now that Huo Xiaoman really changed his face, recovery alone is a big problem. For half a year, it is absolutely impossible to do that kind of appearance.
Patting his head irritably, he lamented: "Hey! If you can let me personally, you will know if what I said is true."
"How do you test?" Chu Qixun was curious.
"Naturally, take a knife and cut off her face, and you will know whether what I said is true." There must be a difference between the face-changing and the original one, but Sunan's answer is too horrifying, not surprising He got another pair of horrified eyes.
"What I said is true, forget it..." Sunan gave up talking to him, and didn't want to talk to him too much, thinking carefully.
Face-changing is not impossible. In his era, gender, appearance, height, etc. were not a problem. Although face-changing is complicated and difficult, it is still possible.
But if it was changed in such ancient times, it would be a bit unimaginable.Sunan guessed, could it be that there is something magical about this ancient medical technique that he doesn't know?
But Chu Qixun was caught in the words of Sunan and couldn't extricate himself. He muttered to himself, staring at one place with slack eyes, faintly revealing fanaticism: "If it is true, then it means that what is recorded in the medical book is true , is there really a face-changing technique??"
Sunan slapped him directly on the back of the head and woke him up. With a "slap", Chu Qixun came back to his senses and glared: "Why did you hit me?"
He replied calmly: "Wake you up."
Sunan thought for a moment, and said: "If the face-changing technique is real, then Huo Xiaolei must not be the only one." Sunan couldn't help but think of the murder case he heard before. Some corpses lost their faces for no reason when they were found, otherwise It was his appearance that was completely ruined. Thinking about it now, there might be some connection between the two.
He asked: "In Yangzhou City, where is the place where the most corpses are stored?"
There are many places where corpses are stored in ancient times, but if we say that the most concentrated place is Yizhuang.Sunan learned that there are 5 or 6 large and small yizhuang in Yangzhou City. There are not only public buildings to store unidentified corpses, but also private yizhuang invested by local wealthy businessmen and gentry to cultivate good deeds for themselves.
Sunan really wanted to go to Yizhuang to check it out immediately, but considering that it was getting late, it would be inconvenient for them to go there, so they had to go back to their residence to rest for a night, and discuss it tomorrow morning.
Early the next morning, Chu Qixun originally wanted to go to Yizhuang with Sunan, but because he had important matters to go to Jiangfu today, Lin Jun couldn't go with him for some reason, so Sunan had to give up.
Just before going out, the guard brought a man to Sunan.
"This is?" Su Nan was puzzled, and the guard quickly said: "Sir, this is a servant of the Yangzhou government office, named Xu Mingru, who was specially called by the general from the government office to assist the Lord." Xu Mingru stepped forward immediately, He bowed to Sunan.
This... Sunan's head got a little bigger, the smile on his face remained the same, but he started to mutter in his heart.
He went here to take a look, maybe he wanted to do some other tricks and send a servant to follow him, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
It's just that it was good intentions for Lin Jun to send someone to follow him. If he refused, other troubles might arise.Thinking this way in my heart, I saluted with a smile on my face: "It turns out that it is Xu Yuzuo, so I will trouble you."
Xu Yuzuo quickly returned the gift: "Mr. Su is polite."
With the newcomer, Sunan didn't delay too much, and was ready to go to today's destination. At this time, Xu Yuzuo's usefulness came. He followed Sunan and began to talk about the situation of Yizhuang in Yangzhou City: "Within the scope of Yangzhou City University , a total of six yizhuang, including one in the south of the city, one in the north of the city, and one in the west of the city, and the rest were built by gentry and located in distant towns."
"Is it very far?" Sunan was puzzled.
"Compared with the few Yi Zhuang near the suburbs, the gentry built it is naturally farther away. If it is riding a horse, it will take about half a day." Xu Yu explained patiently: "I don't know Mr. Su's first stop, where he wants to go Zuoyizhuang."
It doesn't matter to Sunan, the ones that are closest must be gone: "I'll go to the south of the city first." After deciding, the few people quickly got into the carriage and headed to Yizhuang in the south of the city.
On the way, Sunan also got a general idea of some of the Yizhuang's situation. "Currently there are more than 30 unnamed corpses in Yizhuang in the south of the city, all of which died in the past month and have not yet been claimed." Xu Wuzuo informed that the entire Yizhuang near Yangzhou City currently has no more than a hundred corpses in total. If you want to go forward If you have time to find it, you can only go to the mass graves.
After driving for about half an hour, the carriage entered a dense forest after leaving Yangzhou City, and arrived at the destination not long after.
Yizhuang in the south of the city is a house surrounded by high walls and lush trees.It was a cloudy day, and the surrounding trees blocked most of the sunlight, making the place look gloomy.
After Sunan and the others got off the carriage, Xu Yuzuo went to call the door first, grabbed the knocker on the copper head and knocked several times, and there was an echo soon
"Come here." The door opened a gap, and an old man with deep wrinkles revealed half of his face, staring at his messy hairstyle, and seemed to be cursing, but closed his mouth when he looked at the person in front of him .
"Hey, isn't this Xu Wuzuo? Welcome, why did you come to Mr. Zhong today." With a smile on his face, the old man opened the door enthusiastically, and walked out with a stooped back.
Xu Wuzuo only nodded slightly in response to him, and then introduced to Sunan, "Mr. Su, this is the caretaker of Yizhuang in the south of the city. We all call him Zhong Laoer. If you have any questions, just ask him." Yes."
Sunan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Hello, old man."
Zhong Laoer nodded and bowed, and said with a flattering smile: "This gentleman really beats me, come, come, everyone, don't stand at the door, come in, come in."
A few people from Sunan stepped into the courtyard and took a little look at the yizhuang. The yizhuang has high walls and blue tiles. There is a wide yard when you enter the door. It has a good view. The building looks old, and the moss all over the yard makes the whole yard very old, even the porch is a bit gloomy.
Taking advantage of the time when Sunan burned the yard to death, Xu Yuzuo pulled Zhong Laoer past him and didn't know what to explain. Looking back, his attitude towards Sunan became better and better: "This Mr. Su wants to come to Yizhuang to find something. people?"
Sunan nodded: "Yes, please ask the old man to lead the way."
With a smile on Zhong Laoer's face, he asked Sunan to follow him and take him to the backyard.On the one hand, he was still talking about the history of this Yizhuang, saying that it was an ancestral hall built by a local big family hundreds of years ago.Because it is not a family ancestral hall, it was later donated to the county government at that time as a righteous village, and gradually evolved into a storage for corpses.
There are several houses behind the yard. These houses are used to store corpses. The rooms are spacious and packed with more than a dozen coffins. A gust of wind blows through the hall, making the few people except Sunan shudder.
Zhong Laoer led Sunan to one of the houses, and said flatteringly: "These coffins are temporarily unowned. If no one claims them after more than a month, most of them will be sent to mass graves for burial. It’s a newly delivered corpse in recent days, you see…”
Speaking of the latter, Zhong Lao Er was a little embarrassed. The causes of death of the corpses inside were all kinds of strange. Some were reduced to the outside and were eaten by wild animals, and some were inexplicably killed by human vendettas and their appearance was ruined. This lack of arms and legs, could it be that the person in front of him Does the handsome young man really want to check them out one by one?
Thinking of such a scene, Zhong Lao Er felt weird, but to his surprise, Sunan actually rolled up his sleeves and said to the guards beside him, "Help me open all these coffins, I want to see them one by one. "
"This..." The guard hesitated, but looking at Sunan's appearance, he didn't seem to be joking, so he gritted his teeth and pushed the door open.
"Mr. Su, who are you going to find? You may as well tell me, and I can help you." Xu Yu asked with a frown. Sunan hadn't told him everything before, and he seemed to be looking for a certain corpse.
Sunan smiled: "I'm looking for it, but this person is a bit weird, I can only be sure, Xu Yuzuo just waits aside, if there is a need, Su will definitely not be polite."
Xu Wuzuo didn't know what Sunan was up to, seeing him mysterious, he felt a little uncomfortable, but because of face, he could only nod and stand aside.
After entering the room, there was an obvious smell of rotting corpses. Sunan's face contorted for a while, and soon returned to normal.His five senses were already stronger than ordinary people, and it was really torture for him to stay in such a place.
The corpses in this Yizhuang are indeed in different shapes, with severed limbs, bloody flesh, and gloomy faces... Before Xu Yuzuo asked for help, Sunan refused, and now he had to stand aside and watch Sunan's movements carefully.
He took out a roll of white cloth strips from the wooden box he carried with him, wrapped his hands carefully, and then looked through each coffin, the first thing he looked at was the head.I saw that Sunan carefully turned over the faces of the corpses. The delay for each corpse was not long, and it took about a cup of tea to replace the corpse. In this way, I browsed through about 30 corpses, two rooms Later, the situation finally changed.
"Huh?" When he reached the third room, Sunan finally found something, which attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
"What did Mr. Su find?" Zhong Laoer approached eagerly and asked, and the few people beside him also moved over curiously.
Xu Wuzuo looked at the corpse that surprised Sunan, and saw that it was a charred corpse whose face could no longer be recognized, leaving only the intact skin the size of a fingernail, and the whole body was burnt badly.
Sunan was silent for a moment, and said to Xu Yuzuo: "Please Xu Yuzuo to open my box and help me get something."
Xu Wuzuo opened the box according to Sunan's words, but he was taken aback. He saw that there were many strange utensils in the box, including a silver knife that was not as wide as a finger.According to Sunan's instructions, he handed him a small knife with a thin handle that was only the length of an adult man's palm.
This thing is beaten very thin.The small knife with a thin handle seemed to be shining a light in the sun, and it felt sharp when looking at it.
What happened next made Xu Wuzuo a little unbearable. Sunan put the thin-handled knife behind the ear of the corpse's face, and then swiped, picked, and slid slowly, and slowly wiped the entire face of the corpse. Peeled off.
Xu Wuzuo gasped, he read right, Sunan really slowly peeled off the face of the corpse.I saw that Sunan's movements seemed to be very skillful, but the peeled off face was not complete because of the fire, it was empty, and the empty eye sockets were even more creepy.
On the other hand, Sunan's expression was vaguely excited: "Finally found it."
It was not in vain for him to see so many corpses, and he finally found out that someone was secretly trying to change the face.
Before he looked at Huo Xiaolei's face, he felt a little strange. There was a red line around Huo Xiaolei's chin that surrounded the entire face. Sunan knew very well that it was clearly a scar.In other words, someone once used something like a scalpel to draw a circle on her face.
It's not possible if it's just a simple scratch, but I just heard from the scholar before that Huo Xiaolei's face is very similar to his wife's. It is very doubtful.
Moreover, although the state of Huo Xiaolei's face was well covered up with makeup, Sunan still felt that something was wrong. He had done many plastic surgeries in the past, and Huo Xiaolei's current state was a bit like the sequelae left after skin grafting.
But he understands that things like face-changing that tend to be demonized are difficult to succeed in ancient times. If the effect of Huo Xiaolei is to be achieved, the doctor must go through many experiments. If the experiment fails, maybe it will die.
Since he died, there must be a corpse, which became the product of the failure of the face-changing technique. Sunan remembered Zhong Yongchun's talk about demons who specialize in poaching people's faces.Because the face-changing technique involves peeling off the skin of a person, those corpses lacking skin must have been deliberately done by someone in order not to expose what they were doing.
And the corpse in front of him seemed to have died from an unknown fire, but only he knew that this person must have suffered a lot during his life.After all, putting on a new face is not an easy task. The new face cannot stick to this person's face obediently. The body's resistance caused many complications when he was alive, and it may be one of the complications. let him die eventually.It is also possible that the unknown doctor saw that the experiment had failed, so he killed the person directly to prevent the news from leaking out, and then pretended to die in various ways.
Sunan felt that the latter conjecture was very possible, but the people around him still looked at him in horror, as if he was some heinous pervert, smiled helplessly, and just explained what he wanted to everyone.
Everyone is ignorant, if anyone really understands, it is Xu Yuzuo. "You mean, someone specially used these people for face-changing experiments, and after the experiment failed, they killed them and pretended to die in other ways?"
Xu Wuzuo couldn't believe it, but Sunan didn't seem to be fake, and his words were very logical. He was still holding the skin that had just been peeled off. It was said that it was someone else's face, but it was somewhat authentic.
He was dubious, and Sunan waved his hand to signal to continue, and the corpse was also marked.
Sunan guessed that since there was one corpse, there must be a second one, but unfortunately, after searching the entire Yizhuang, there was none.A few people had no choice but to go to the next Yizhuang.He was very lucky, and found a dead body with a problem in the remaining two yizhuang villages, and was transported to the yizhuang in the south of the city.
The two corpses can already explain the problem. It was late at night when he returned to his residence, and he told Lin Jun and Chu Qixun what he discovered during the day.
This kind of question is a bit obvious, Chu Qixun still hesitated, Sunan knew that he might not believe it, so he said to him: "If you don't believe it, why not accompany me to the scene tomorrow, and see it with your own eyes, then you will know what I said is true Fake."
It was Su Yang's master, Mr. Xie Hongyi, who heard what Sunan said, thought carefully, and suddenly remembered something: "Speaking of which, this behavior is very similar to a person I heard in the past."
"Who?" Mr. Xie immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"I can't remember what that man's real name is. He is called an "evil doctor". Although he has excellent medical skills, his actions are unpredictable and devoid of conscience. He often captures living people to experiment with medical skills. Since he suddenly disappeared five or sixty years ago, No one has known his whereabouts for so many years."
In Mr. Xie's narration, this "evil doctor" was originally a disciple of a master medical doctor who was well-known in the world at that time. Unfortunately, his mind was not right, and he finally fell into evil ways. Loyal and unfilial disciples. "I heard that that person did something, transplanting an ape arm to a human body. After being discovered, he was regarded as evil by the martial arts at that time, and his master even threatened to drive him out of the sect.
"What's the result?" Su Yang was also at the scene. Hearing what the master said, he urged to inquire.
"Of course he died. At that time, there were rumors that he fell off a cliff during the pursuit. Although no body was found, his name has never been heard in the world since then."
Sunan pondered: "No." There are indeed similarities in the form of these two people. He can't be sure whether they are the same person, but there is a problem.
After this person finished the experiment, he put the corpses in various disguises. Leaving aside the appearance of Bailiu Town, the few disguises he found today were very good, even if they were used by others, they might not be able to detect them.If it's just one or two people, it's absolutely impossible to do such a situation. Behind it, there must be a force to help cover it up.
Hearing what Sunan said, several people in the room were shocked.
"It's just that the man is in Yangzhou, which surprised me." The person who had such a trick might have come here for the "Holy Hand Medicine Classic". Thinking of Mrs. Jiang's face burns, if the man wanted to replace her A face is not impossible.
Chu Qixun's face was half-green and half-white, with sweat on his forehead, Sunan quickly comforted him: "These are just speculations, don't think too much about it." But it was hard to calm down, if that person really did it for that This medical scriptures come, he is very likely to meet in the game.
When encountering such a monster, he was really not sure at all.
Chu Qixun nodded absently, hesitated to speak later, and said to Sunan: "Well...I want to go to Yizhuang with you tomorrow, is that okay?"
In fact, not only the [-]s are curious, but the rest of the people are also very curious after listening to Sunan's description. According to him, the face-changing technique is absolutely perfect, directly peel off the whole skin of a person, and then replace it with another face , is simply unheard of.
On the second day, several people came to Yizhuang in the south of the city again, and came to the place where the two corpses were placed. Seeing that there were so many distinguished guests suddenly coming to Yizhuang, Zhong Laoer stood aside in fear, waiting for orders.
Yesterday, Sunan found another woman's body. It was well covered up, her body was swollen from the bubbles, and her face was even more bloated. It seems that she was also a beautiful woman before she was alive.
Even Sunan had to admit that the man's craftsmanship had indeed reached a level of proficiency.However, this kind of sky-defying technique could not be perfected to a greater or lesser extent, which finally caused these people to die in Huangquan.
In front of several people, Sunan peeled off the face of one of the women. From being half-believing at the beginning to half-believing later, the next few people fell into deep thought.
Lin Jun's face was not particularly good-looking, and he glanced at Sunan not far away. The latter raised his eyebrows, understood what he meant, and took the opportunity to walk aside, wanting to hear what Lin Jun wanted to say to him.
It didn't take long for Lin Jun to follow, and when he saw him, he told him what was in his mind one by one: "Do you want to catch that person?"
Lin Jun nodded, with a flash of worry in his eyes. That medical scripture was what Chu Qixun asked for. In fact, another treasure that Master Jiang brought out this time is said to be another clue to the treasure.The timing of that person's appearance was so coincidental, and his actions were treacherous. Lin Jun guessed that this person might have something to do with the Secret Society, otherwise, it would be very difficult to have the power to do this kind of thing now.
Sunan also thinks what he said makes sense. The secret meeting has been hidden for many years, and it can't be wiped out overnight. The wildfire is endless, and the spring breeze blows again, but how to burn down the wildfire with its roots, Sunan really dare not promise .
However, it doesn't mean that Sunan has nothing to do with this person hiding in the dark. He told Lin Jun his thoughts. It is not difficult to find this person. The first line is the former Huo Xiaolei. If Huo Xiaolei changes There is really that person's handwriting behind the face, and it may not be difficult to follow the clues.
Huo Xiaolei is a test subject. Since it is a test subject, it must be monitored from time to time. That person must have a special way to contact Huo Xiaolei. If you follow her route in reverse, you should be able to find out the identity of that person.
Another way is to participate in the competition. Since that person keeps experimenting with changing faces, he must have a fanatical pursuit of medical skills.That person will definitely not let go of that "Holy Hand Medicine Classic". With that person's level, at the end of the competition, it is almost possible to determine who that person is.
The two were discussing, but they suddenly heard Chu Qixun calling him from somewhere: "Su Nan, Sunan, come and take a look!!"
