Reincarnated Bamboo Rat Starts Extreme Survival

Chapter 60 Disposal of the Church's Corpse

"Mr. Bell, these beautiful furs and feathers are completely inferior to the leather armor made of earth-eating pigskin, but why are they so much more expensive than better earth-eating pigskin?"

In Edu's eyes, the practicality of these furs is not good at all, but the merchants always prefer furs.

In this regard, it is also difficult for Bell to explain clearly in simple words.

He and Edu walked away from the stall and continued walking in the market.

Edu has no desire to buy for the time being. His main goal today is to go to the bard guild to receive the simplest professional training.

The bard brother from before was an out-and-out half-baked guy. He didn't have much to teach Edu, and there were still many things waiting for Edu to learn from the bard guild.

They walked all the way, and when they reached the edge of the market, Bell smelled a bad smell, a bit like a freshly opened can of herring.

But it would be more accurate to say the rotting smell of newly dead bodies.

"Still selling dead bodies in the market?!"

Stimulated by this smell, Bell looked extremely surprised.

This smell of dead bodies is emitted by untreated corpses after they have deteriorated.

There are quite a few corpses of monsters in the market, but after treatment, these corpses of monsters did not emit such an extremely bad smell.

"Ok?"

Edu's perception was not as sensitive as Bell's, but after walking outside for 2 minutes, he also smelled the corpse.

Unlike Bell's astonishment, Edu understood what was going on.

Taking three steps in parallel, Edu quickly walked to a stall where few people stopped.

There are three half-disabled adventurers leaning crookedly on the wall of the house, beside them is a row of corpses covered with white cloth.

"What's the situation? This is not the place to bury the corpse."

"They are begging, waiting for kind people to help them raise money to bury their teammates."

According to Edu's description, the current situation is that some adventure groups are attacked by large groups of monsters in the wild, or after encountering other unexpected situations.

After a large number of members of the adventure group died in battle, and the remaining members did not have enough money to bury the dead, those remaining members would also come to the market to raise funds.

Generally, when this happens, the stores in the market will give some copper coins as alms. After they beg around, it is enough to bury the dead teammate.

But it's a pity that the three poor beggars in front of them had too many teammates killed in battle.

Bell took a glance and saw that there were 26 corpses under the white cloth, which is not easy.

Edu stepped forward to inquire a little bit, and found that this was an adventure group from other places. After an accident, only three of them were left alive.

"Condolences."

Leaving two copper coins behind, Edu took Bell and left here.

He explained to Bell that human beings must be buried by church priests after death.

In the research of the mages, it was found that on the day when the evil moon rises every year, any corpse has a probability to become an activated remains walking on the ground.

But human corpses are different from the corpses of animals and monsters. The probability of animal and monster corpses turning into living remains is less than [-]%.

As for the human corpse, when the evil moon rises, the probability of turning into a living remains is almost [-]%.

Only the corpses buried by the priests of the church can peacefully fall into the sea of ​​sinking and never wake up again.

In this world, everyone's birth needs the blessing of the church, and everyone's death must also be handled by the church.

The church is actually the most profitable organization in the world.

After all, all churches charge for burying corpses.

In fact, senior professionals of other professions can also use various means to bury the corpse, allowing it to fall peacefully into the sinking sea.

However, the cost of asking them to bury the corpse is too high.By analogy, the cost of a priest's professional burial of a corpse can be called the price of cabbage.

But even so, the cost of burying a person should not be underestimated.

This amount of money is not too much. The burial fee for a person after death is one silver coin, and this amount of money can be afforded by ordinary people even if they bite their teeth.

It's really not possible, like the few people I met today, the money can also be raised through begging.

"No one wants to see their dead relatives and friends come back to life in pain, especially after the relatives and friends' bodies move, they must fight him with swords."

When Edu said this, Bell was puzzled by a question.

Since the corpse will be activated under the evil moon, why not just burn the corpse?
Without a corpse, the activated remains can't be molded with ashes to get back up again.

"It is taboo not to burn the corpse!"

For Bell's idea, Edu said it was incredible, and felt that Bell didn't have any common sense of life.

In this world, it is necessary to bury the corpse. Everyone knows that after the corpse is incinerated, the soul that cannot sleep may become a more difficult thing to deal with the activated remains.

This is a lesson learned through blood and tears, and the church's pastor profession system was also developed against this background.

"Is there any corpse that, for various reasons, failed to go to the church for burial?"

"This happens every year, and there will always be a few activated remains that wake up under the evil moon."

The church's burial service cannot cover everyone perfectly, and occasionally there will be corpses that cannot be buried.

But when these corpses become activated remains, any professional can take action on them, and there are not enough activated remains to make any noise.

"Now, we have not been threatened by activated remains for many years, and the church has built a complete burial system to serve the deceased."

Listening to Edu's story, Bell said that the funeral parlor in another world had a much greater influence than he knew.

The Church, which is strongly related to human death, has the core voice in any city, and their sphere of influence also covers the entire human world.

Bell asked Edu to describe the priest's ability system, and after listening to a few words, his head grew bigger.

One is that Edu didn't know enough about the pastor, so he couldn't clearly know what it was.

The second is that everyone knows that the priest's ability is related to the sinking sea after death, and no one except the priest knows what it is.

"Woo...the priest's ability system is bound to the Sunken Sea. It sounds like it has nothing to do with the ability system I know."

Bell really wanted to say, who knows where the Sunken Sea is.But if you think about it, the ghosts seem to know this place.

Shaking his head, Bell stopped thinking about this completely unseen thing, and turned his head to look at the wide square in front of him.

Going out from the street of the market is Edu's destination today:
