Chapter 1222 Lifting the Sedan Chair

During the transportation process, Ding Zhenzong accidentally touched the abdomen of the corpse. The abdomen was swollen and felt... very hard. It was not the kind of stiffness after death, but more like something was hidden in the corpse's stomach.

Luo Tianhe also noticed it. While the second young master was outside directing the servants to pack up the sedan chair, he boldly reached out and pulled up the clothes of the corpse. With the faint candlelight, a hideous scar suddenly appeared on the abdomen of the corpse.

The scar was huge and terrifying, extending from the lower abdomen to the neck. It was sutured with fine hemp rope. The dense stitches made people feel creepy.

Because of the cover of the clothes, it was not noticed before. The edges of the wound were uneven. Everyone's first feeling was that it was torn open by a huge force.

Luo Tianhe was skilled and bold. He actually reached out to press the swollen abdomen of the corpse. The feedback told him that there was indeed something hidden in the abdomen of the corpse, and it was very hard.

But it would never be gold, silver, jewelry, jade or other things, because the weight would not match.

Luo Tianhe immediately thought of the previous movements of the corpse and the empty wooden shelf in the warehouse. Could it be that... the evil things on the wooden shelf are now in the corpse's belly?

Without waiting for further thought, the second young master came over with the help of Lai Fu. His leg disease became more serious. In just a few hours, his movements were obviously stiffer than before.

Everyone quickly gathered around and blocked Luo Tianhe and the corpse. Luo Tianhe took this opportunity to quickly tidy up the clothes of the deceased and pretended that nothing had happened.

"Masters, it's getting late. I want to take my father's body back to the tomb." The second young master looked at the corpse on the ground, his expression full of grief.

Luo Tianhe bowed to the second young master, "We also want to see Mr. Wu off. I don't know if it will break the rules."

"No, I would love to have the help of all the masters." Hearing that these masters were willing to go together, the second young master's eyes lit up and hurriedly returned the greeting to Luo Tianhe.

After all, he was facing a corpse that had undergone a mutation. Even if it was a close relative, the reaction of the second young master was reasonable.

It was not convenient to send a corpse in a big way, and he could not use a coffin. The second young master chose a sedan chair, which needed people to carry it in front and back.

He planned to put the body in the sedan chair before dawn and send it back without anyone noticing.

The second young master had difficulty walking, so he took a sedan chair to lead the way, while the fat man in Jiangcheng and his group followed at the end of the funeral procession. It sounded nice to say that they were holding the line, but in fact they just gathered together to discuss the case.

In order to prevent the people in front from hearing, they deliberately distanced themselves from the sedan chair carrying the body in front.

"There is something wrong with the death of Mr. Wu. Did you see the scars on his abdomen?" Li Bai lowered his voice, "It was torn open. What kind of thing would have such power?"

"And there is something hidden inside. That thing is very hard and not heavy. I feel like it is wood or something like that." Ding Zhenzong also gave his own opinion.

Everyone was talking, only Luo Tianhe frowned and said nothing.

"Mr. Luo, what are you thinking about?" Lin Qianqian's voice was very pleasant, not offensive at all, especially those two big eyes, blinking gently.

"Strange." Luo Tianhe uttered two words.

"This way of death is more than just strange, it's simply weird. It must be that kind of thing! Speaking of which, this Mr. Wu's life is also quite bad, and his death is too tragic." Thinking of the hideous scar on his abdomen, Ding Zhenzong couldn't help but wrap his clothes tightly. This was a completely subconscious behavior.

Luo Tianhe took a breath, and his voice suddenly became serious, "I'm not talking about this. This Mr. Wu's life should not be over. I can't think of how he would end up like this."

"It's not the life that should be over..." The fat man didn't understand a little bit, this person is dead.

Yuan Shanyuan, who was walking at the back, nodded and looked at Luo Tianhe with a look that seemed to have something in mind. "Mr. Luo is a physiognomist. He must have seen Mr. Wu's face when he examined the body."

"Yes, Mr. Wu has a full forehead and pearls on his earrings. Even though he has been dead for many days, his eyebrows are still beautiful. Judging from his face, he is rich and has pearls. This kind of blessing is very rare, enough to ensure a prosperous family and a long life. He has at least 20 to 30 years to live. He should not die here, and he died in such a tragic way." Luo Tianhe's voice was full of confusion.

"You mean... he shouldn't die?" The fat man asked cautiously.

After Luo Tianhe said this, the already weird atmosphere rose again. Staring at the swaying sedan in front and thinking of Mr. Wu's body inside, everyone was silent for a while.

A sneer sounded, which was very harsh in the silent crowd. "I said that this number of fate cannot be disbelieved, but it cannot be believed completely. There is no need for you to be so nervous." Yao Shunyu narrowed his eyes, still looking careless, with his hands crossed behind his head.

Before he finished speaking, with a "thump", the sedan chair in front fell to the ground, and then the people walking in front suddenly became agitated.

"What's going on?" Everyone rushed over immediately.

The sedan chair fell to the ground, and a man squatted beside him with a sullen face, his body still shaking. Everyone recognized that this man was also one of the sedan bearers, with a white belt tied around his waist.

The second young master also limped over with the support of Lai Fu. Lai Fu stared and whispered: "What are you guys doing? Why don't you send the master's body back quickly? Can you afford to delay the time?"

"Wang Bao said he encountered a strange thing." Someone whispered.

Everyone looked at the man squatting on the ground. It seemed that he was Wang Bao.

The second young master looked pale and said, "Wang Bao, what's going on?"

"I... I won't lift it anymore, second young master, I won't lift the master anymore, please let me go!" Wang Bao was trembling all over, and his voice changed, "Just now I... I felt that the master moved."

Everyone's face changed after hearing this, especially the sedan bearers. The second young master said angrily, "Wang Bao, my Wu family thinks that we treat you well, how can you talk nonsense!"

Wang Bao almost cried, and stood up from the ground trembling, "Second young master, I didn't lie to you, it's true, I really felt that the master moved."

"You are not the only one who carries the sedan. If the master is really different, why didn't others feel it?" Lai Fu was still a smart man, and he immediately found the flaw in Wang Bao's words.

"I'm not lying to you. Just now, I felt my shoulders getting heavier and heavier, as if there was a force pulling me from behind. I looked back and saw that the curtain of the sedan chair was opened. It was the master! The master opened the curtain with his hand and was...looking at me!"
