My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

"Now it looks more like Jiang Sheng killed Ma Tao!"

"How come they are connected?"

"Did Jiang Sheng also go into the water?"

"Could it be that he wants to die together with Ma Tao?"

Chen Wenjin walked towards Zhang Hao in confusion. Although they had conflicts before, she thought that only he could explain it all.

She asked, "Mr. Yin Yang, what is going on?"

"Why are their bodies together?"

Zhang Hao smiled and pointed at the corpse. "Look at the picture and use your imagination."

"It shouldn't be hard to guess."

Fatty Wang was also confused. "Hey? Isn't this the corpse I saw in the water before?"

"He was the one who dragged Ma Tao in the water before, right?"

Zhang Hao nodded, "Yes, it's him."

"This corpse is different from the ordinary ones, and it has a lot of resentment."

"So they are all from your archaeological team."

"That's not hard to understand. There may be a feud between the two of them."

Chen Wenjin looked at Zhang Hao and Fatty Wang in confusion, unable to understand their conversation.

At this time, the voice of the Second Branch of the Ministry of National Security came, "Everyone make way."

Technical staff wearing white gloves examined the body.

"One had been dead for more than ten hours, and his body was beginning to stiffen; the other had just died, and his body was not yet completely stiff."

Chen Wenjin looked at the two bodies with even greater confusion.

She could choose not to believe Zhang Hao, but she had to believe what the Ministry of State Security's Technical Department said.

However, the problem is... She knew that Ma Tao had just died, but if Jiang Sheng had been dead for more than ten hours, how could he hold Ma Tao's ankle tightly without letting go? This is simply incredible!

I'm very sorry that my previous answer was incomplete, let me complete the revised text for you:
Could it be that, as the Yin-Yang master predicted, he had become a corpse? Li Zheng, the director of the Second Branch of the Ministry of National Security, asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Xiao Huang, can you analyze the cause of their death?" He asked Xiao Huang from the Technical Department.

Xiao Huang stared at the corpse and thought for a moment before speaking, "The one who just died was drowned."

He paused, then said carefully: "As for this person who has been dead for more than ten hours, we need to take him back to the department for further autopsy."

Li Zheng nodded after hearing this, and then he turned to Secretary Wang of the archaeological team, "Secretary Wang, our department's forensic level is top-notch in the province. Do you need my help in investigating the cause of death of these two archaeological team members?"

Secretary Wang nodded immediately upon hearing this. "Director Li, that's great. We knew nothing about what happened to Team Member Jiang Sheng before. If his body had not been salvaged this time, we would have mistakenly thought he was just missing."

After hearing this, Li Zheng simply nodded lightly, then waved his hand, and the personnel from the technical department of the Ministry of State Security swiftly moved the two bodies into the car.

At this moment, Zhang Hao turned to Fatty Wang and said, "Fatty, have you contacted Zhang Qilin?"

Fatty Wang shook his head and said, "I got up too early this morning and forgot about it."

"Then you can fight him now," Zhang Hao suggested, "He should be free now. Tell him to get here as soon as possible after delivering the bodies to the military district. We also need him to deliver some bodies back to the inn."

Fatty Wang looked at the two bodies going away and asked, "Are they those two?"

Zhang Hao smiled softly, "No, they have nothing to do with the inn, so we don't need to worry about it. We still need to salvage ten corpses from the bottom of the river tomorrow. Once Zhang Qilin arrives, we can go back to the inn immediately."

……

At the same time, in a city 500 kilometers south of the Yangtze River, clear bell sounds echoed in the night.

In front of the gate of the Central Military Region, several figures came closer and closer as the bell rang. Their way of walking was peculiar. Every time the bell rang, they would jump a step.

The soldiers standing guard at the gate watched this scene with confusion. After all, this was a military area, so when had such a strange performer appeared before?
However, when the gong sounded and the call for "Yin people on the road, strangers stay away" sounded, the soldiers began to feel a little eerie. The gong sound and the call seemed to reveal an indescribable weirdness and coldness.

At this time, Zhang Qilin received a call from Wang Pangzi and learned about the new mission. After hanging up the phone, he continued to shake the Yin-Yang corpse-driving bell in his hand to lead the corpses behind him forward.

When they were about to reach the gate of the military area, the soldiers on guard stopped them vigilantly. But Zhang Qilin just said calmly: "I am Zhang Qilin, the corpse driver of Yin Yang Inn, and I am here to return the body of the nine-headed bird."

The soldiers looked at each other in silence, not understanding what he meant. But when Zhang Qilin mentioned that he wanted to find Liu Zhenming, the chief of staff of the military region, their expressions immediately became serious. This name enjoyed a very high reputation in the military region.

Facing the soldiers' questions, Zhang Qilin remained calm. He waited quietly, waiting for the soldiers to report and waiting for the next task to be arranged. He had gradually gotten used to this kind of life, and even began to like this kind of life of being with corpses and shuttling between the living and the dead.

At the same time, in the military district's command center, an emergency meeting on foreign invasion was underway.

"The latest news shows that the members of the Nine-headed Bird assassination organization who sneaked into our country a week ago have been confirmed." An officer reported.

"Only a small group of their forces infiltrated this time, and the code name of the leader is Boss." Another officer added.

"Although the equipment they carry is not top-notch, it should not be underestimated. If they intend to carry out assassinations, we still need to remain highly vigilant."

"Unfortunately, despite our intensive search for a week, we have yet to find any trace of them."

"Everyone, do you have any new ideas or suggestions?" The commander looked around at everyone present.

Everyone looked at each other and expressed helplessness.

"These Nine-Headed Bird members are very secretive. They appeared in the Los Angeles area a week ago and then disappeared without a trace."

"Indeed, as an internationally renowned assassin organization, their anti-tracking technology is truly amazing. They can easily escape our surveillance."

"But our current surveillance technology is quite advanced. As long as they are still active, we have a chance to capture their whereabouts!"

"How do you explain the current situation?" someone questioned.

Just as everyone was discussing enthusiastically, the sudden ringing of a cell phone broke the tense atmosphere in the meeting room.

An officer checked his phone, then looked around at his colleagues present and said in a deep voice, "I'll take a call."

The meeting room suddenly became quiet, and everyone lowered their heads to focus on the information in their hands. The officer answered the phone without hesitation: "Hello, this is Liu Zhenming, what's the matter?"

"What? Looking for me? Who's looking for me?" He frowned slightly and listened to the voice on the other end of the phone.

"Yin Yang Inn? Corpse driver?" Liu Zhenming, the chief of staff of the Night Wolf Special Forces, showed a confused expression when he heard these words.

This is a military area, why would a corpse driver come here? He wondered if he had heard it wrong.

Isn't the corpse-carrying craftsman mentioned in the popular science program a story from the last century? Moreover, what is the corpse-carrying craftsman doing in the military region?
However, the other party was obviously well prepared. Not only did they know his name, but they also knew his recent whereabouts.

Other people in the meeting room also noticed something was wrong. Although they did not discuss it out loud, they were all speculating secretly.

Liu Zhenming pondered for a moment and asked, "Why did he come to see me?"

"Return of corpses? What corpses? Are they soldiers from our military district?" he asked puzzledly.

"What! The body of the nine-headed bird?" Liu Zhenming immediately became alert. They were just discussing the matter of the nine-headed bird, and now someone sent the body of the nine-headed bird. This was too much of a coincidence.

He began to wonder if this was a trap.
Corpses? Nine-headed bird? Yin-Yang Inn? These words echoed in Liu Zhenming's mind. He suddenly remembered what the captain of the second team, Lu Xiaolong, had mentioned a few days ago, saying that a courier would deliver a batch of corpses.

Could it be... that's it?

Since the Nine-Headed Bird incident was of great importance, Liu Zhenming decided to go and see it in person. He decisively said to the person on the other end of the phone: "Tell them to wait a moment. I will go there as soon as I finish the meeting."

After hanging up the phone, he glanced at his colleagues in the conference room and took the initiative to explain: "Everyone, you all heard the call just now. There is a man who claims to be a footman at the gate of the military area. He brought the corpse of the nine-headed bird."

As soon as these words were spoken, the conference room immediately exploded.

"Colonel Liu, does the corpse-driving craftsman really exist? Is it a scam?"

"Yeah, how could they find the body of the Nine-headed Bird? We haven't found it after searching for so long. Could it be that they are deliberately using this incident to lure us?"

"Colonel Liu, this matter is probably not simple. We were just discussing the Nine-headed Bird when someone sent us a corpse. This is too much of a coincidence."

Liu Zhenming stroked his phone, pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I heard some rumors before."

"Lu Xiaolong from the second team mentioned this to me a week ago, but he didn't say it was the corpse of the nine-headed bird at that time."

"He was very mysterious at the time and said I would know when I saw it."

"I didn't take it seriously at first, thinking they were making excuses for the delay."

“Now it seems that this may be true.”

"But... does the profession of footman really exist?"

The people in the meeting room fell silent again. If Liu Zhenming didn't know about it beforehand, this matter would be suspicious. But since he had heard about it before...

After a while, Liu Zhenming looked at the information of the Nine-headed Bird on the big screen, took a deep breath and said, "Let's go. Since they are here to find us, let's go out and take a look together."

"Even if he is really a sniper from the Nine-headed Bird, it won't be that easy to take my life, Liu Zhenming!"

"Everyone, put on your bulletproof vests, and be extra careful when you get to the door." People in the conference room nodded to each other, but someone couldn't help but remind them: "Staff Officer Liu, I always feel that something is wrong. Should we let them enter the military area first and find a safe place without assassins to meet?"

"That's right. Jiu Tou Niao is an internationally renowned killer organization that has assassinated politicians from many countries. If they are suspects, we must be more careful!" another person added.

"How could he be a corpse driver? This profession has probably disappeared for hundreds of years, right?" someone questioned.

Liu Zhenming pressed the remote control, turned off the projector, closed his notebook, and said, "Old Xu is right. No matter who they are, we must be careful. Let them in first and tell the soldiers standing guard at the door to take them to the front of the cafeteria."

"There are buildings all around there, so it's unlikely there would be snipers. Unless they were carrying bombs and wanted to die together," he added.

……

Ten minutes later, soldiers patrolling at the gate of the military zone saw two Kyoto jeeps driving towards the cafeteria. This type of jeep had no carport, only a front windshield, and the passengers in the car were clearly visible.

"Look, it's Chief of Staff Liu and his men!" the soldiers whispered.

"They are all officers above the corps level. With such a large lineup, where are they going? Isn't it too grand?"

"It seems to be the direction to the cafeteria?"

"Eating together? That's impossible. I saw Staff Officer Liu at dinner that night."

"They look very anxious. Should we follow them and take a look?"

"The next patrol will get there, so we have no chance."

"I heard that there's a corpse driver at the door. Should Staff Officer Liu go find him?"

"Who did you listen to?"

"Wasn't Lao Wang from the third shift on duty just now? Didn't you hear him making the phone call?"

"Corpse driver? This seems to be a profession that transports corpses in ancient times? It should have disappeared long ago!"

"So, the origins of that corpse driver are unknown? Will the Chief of Staff and his men be in danger?"

“No matter if there is any danger or not, we have to go and check it out. Didn’t you see that the people in that car were all high-ranking officials? If anything happens to them, no one will be able to have an easy life!”

Two Kyoto jeeps had stopped at the entrance of the military district, and five middle-aged men in military uniforms got off the cars one after another. The man in the middle was 1.8 meters tall, more burly than the others - this was Chief of Staff Liu Zhenming.

Liu Zhenming saw Zhang Qilin and several people wearing cloaks behind him. It was dark and close to midnight. Although the lights were on at the entrance of the military area, the visibility was still poor. Because Zhang Qilin and others were wearing black cloaks, the faces under the hoods could not be seen clearly, so it was difficult to tell whether they were alive or dead.

Moreover, since Zhang Qilin and the others were standing, Staff Officer Liu and his team instinctively thought that they were all alive. After all, in their impression, even if there really was such a profession as corpse-carrying craftsmen, they were only responsible for transporting corpses. Transporting corpses certainly requires a vehicle, so how could a corpse be able to stand and walk on its own?
So Liu Zhenming frowned and asked, "Are you... here to deliver the body?"

Zhang Qilin nodded and said nothing.

"Where are the bodies?" Staff Officer Liu asked in a deep voice, and he and the other leaders silently stepped back two steps. If Zhang Qilin was regarded as a member of the Nine-headed Bird, they had no doubt that these people might be carrying bombs, so it was best to keep a certain safe distance.

Zhang Qilin pointed at the people behind him and said, "They are."

"They?" Liu Zhenming looked at the people behind Zhang Qilin in confusion. Standing corpses? How is this possible?

The soldier next to him came over and whispered to Liu Zhenming: "Except for this man, they all jumped over just now." (End of this chapter)
