The heavens start from the Palace of Transferring Flowers

Chapter 101 Murder at the Inn of the Dead

Lines are separated like mountains, and each line has its own rules and sayings.

Finally enough rest, Jiang Chen also has a good understanding of the industry of exorcising corpses. The old Liang's stories are only part of it. The real profession of "exorcizing corpses" has many sayings and taboos.

Seeing that Jiang Chen was still following them, the face of the corpse chaser at the front was not very good.

"Don't get me wrong, I just happened to be on this road, don't worry, I will keep a secret for you, I won't talk nonsense, let alone disturb you on your way."

After hearing Jiang Chen's promise, they finally felt more at ease.

The corpse exorcist in the front is ringing the soul-absorbing bell and knocking on the gong, while the disguised dead man in the back puts his hand on the person in front. Because they are wearing straw hats, with talisman paper on their foreheads, and walking with their heads down, they cannot see their faces. This adds to the mysterious, spooky atmosphere.

Jiang Chen followed behind them, the group of people didn't walk very fast.

It was getting dark, and finally found an inn when it was completely dark.

It was said to be an inn, but it was for "dead corpses" and "mortician exorcists". The exorcist told Jiang Chen that this was a "dead corpse inn".

"Dead corpse inn", this kind of mysterious "dead corpse inn", only lives in dead corpses and morticians, and ordinary people can't live there.Its gates are open all year round.Because behind the two large door panels is where the corpse rests.

The mortician drove the corpse, arrived at the "dead corpse shop" before dawn, and left quietly at night.The corpses stood neatly against the wall behind the door panel.In case of heavy rain, it is not easy to go, so I stop in the store for a few days and nights.

Ordinary people don't want to live in the "dead man's inn", but Jiang Chen doesn't mind.

He asked the shopkeeper to tie the horse and get some fodder for the horse by the way.

Jiang Chen and the "mortician" each wanted a guest room, and asked the waiter to bring over some food and drinks by the way.

The folks here are used to people like "dead cadavers", so they treat "dead cadavers" like ordinary people.

Soon the food was called, Jiang Chen ate the food while drinking the wine, wondering in his heart whether those who pretended to be dead would accompany the "mortician" to eat together.

Jiang Chen walked out of the room, went to the next door and knocked on the door.

There was no response from inside, and the door opened after a while, and the "mortician" saw that it was Jiang Chen again, and his face was a bit impatient.

"I'm just bored to come to you and scurry through the door."

"Destroyer" is very speechless, this little ancestor cannot be scolded or beaten, there is really nothing to do with him.

Jiang Chen saw those three people disguised as corpses standing by the wall.

Jiang Chen saw four bowls on the table, their meals were not very good, just a few bowls of rice and a bowl of vegetables.

The income of this "destroyer" is not much.

"Stop pretending, eat your meal."

Those three people heard what Jiang Chen said, and returned to their seats to eat.

"Eat slowly, I'll go back to eat too."

Back in his room, he ate all the food and vegetables, and when his stomach was full, Jiang Chen sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice.

"Dead Man's Inn" is very quiet, and crows and other wild animals can sometimes be heard around.

If you are timid, you dare not live here at all.

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Chen suddenly heard a thunder outside, and not long after that, he heard the sound of rain "Dididi~" on the roof.

It was fine during the day, but it rained at night.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, Jiang Chen doesn't take it to heart at all, because even if the rain doesn't stop tomorrow, he can continue to live here.

It is estimated that those few corpses will not be able to travel on rainy days.

Jiang Chen closed his eyes again and continued to practice.

Anyway, nothing to do, practice can pass the time.

When Jiang Chen opened his eyes again, it was no longer raining outside, and he felt that it was getting late, so he lay down and soon fell asleep.

The next day, Jiang Chen was woken up, it was just dawn, and he wanted to sleep a little longer, what's the noise outside.

Although Jiang Chen wasn't angry about getting up, he was also a little annoyed.

He walked out the door and went outside, only to see several people stuck in a room.

Jiang Chen walked over, frightened at the buddy's shoulder.

"Ah! Ghost!"

The guy was patted and reacted so frightened.

All these people were also startled by his voice, and everyone's nerves might be tense.

"What the hell is your name, and what are you guys arguing about here in the early morning?"

Everyone saw Jiang Chen heaved a sigh of relief.

"The dead people in this room were done by the zombies, to be precise, the three zombies who chased the mortician yesterday did it."

What a mess.

"Get out of the way, let me go in and have a look."

Jiang Chen's imposing manner was very strong, they automatically made way for Jiang Chen to enter.

Once inside, Jiang Chen saw the dead on the ground.

Jiang Chen had killed many people, so he was not afraid of the dead, he walked over and squatted down, touched the corpse, it was cold.

Jiang Chen had read a medical magazine before, which introduced how to judge the time of death through some corpse phenomena.

All are corpse temperatures. The temperature here is not the body surface temperature of the corpse, but the body temperature. Usually, a thermometer is used to measure the rectum or liver.

The second is corpse plaques. The death time of corpse plaques is also based on the shape of corpse plaques. From the accumulation period, diffusion period, and infiltration period, the color of corpse plaques is different in each period. For example, there are several nodes within six hours. For the first time, corpse plaques can be transferred, and they will not transfer after more than 12 hours, and they will not fade after pressing for more than 24 hours. These are the laws summed up by senior forensic doctors.

There are also degrees of rigor and corneal opacity.

Jiang Chen's memory is very good, he can't forget everything he saw in his previous life.

After examining the body, he probably speculated that the time of death of the deceased should be in the early morning.

Jiang Chen touched the clothes on his body, all the things on his body were gone, and looking in the room, the package was still there, Jiang Chen opened the package and saw that there were only clothes inside, no money.

Jiang Chen speculated that he should break into the house and rob him. Jiang Chen picked up the dead man's hand. His nails were a bit long, and there were bloodshot nails, which should be left over from the struggle.

The cloth on his body is of good quality, and the shoes on his feet are [-]% new. He is dressed and dressed like a passing businessman.

Jiang Chen turned his body over, and saw that there were finger marks on his neck, and the finger marks went deep into the flesh, at first glance, it really looked like a zombie's long nails had stabbed him.

It's just that when Jiang Chen was about to turn the corpse over, he suddenly found out that there were eleven purple fingerprints on the neck of the deceased. What did this mean? It meant that the murderer had six fingers on one hand.

According to the position of the fingerprint of the sixth finger, this should be the extra finger of the right hand.

"Man, is the man who drove the corpse still at the inn?"

"It's gone, they usually sneak away at night."

Jiang Chen knew that they definitely didn't do it, because he clearly remembered that those people's fingers were all normal, none of them had an extra finger.

If the murderer is still in the inn, he will definitely be found. I'm afraid he will run away after killing someone.

In the bloody ancient times, dead people were very common, and sometimes the government didn't bother to care about it.

And if the murderer wasn't at the inn, Jiang Chen wouldn't bother to investigate further.
