Chapter 208 - 208: A Clue Revealed by Stitching a Corpse (5)
As she spoke, she looked at Xu Bai pleadingly with her big eyes.
Xu Bai stroked his chin and snatched the bottle from Chu Yu’s hands.” ‘Next time. vou will be in charge of evervthing.”
Chu Yu nodded quickly as if she had been granted amnesty.
Teaching needed to be done step by step, otherwise, going too far was as bad as falling short.
Xu Bai felt that if he allowed Chu Yu to take the first step, the rest would be smoother.
This was indeed the truth. The first time, it was inevitable that it would be very dry. Slowly, it would gradually become smooth.
Although Yun Zihai didn’t understand what the two of them were doing, he didn’t ask further. When he saw that the two of them had finally confirmed it, he opened the cell door.
“Brother Xu, Zheng Jin has already been crippled by me.”
In the end, he added.
Xu Bai led Chu Yu inside.
At this moment, Zheng Jin, who had his back to them, turned around. His face was haggard. When he saw Xu Bai, there was a hint of mockery in his haggard expression.
“Lord Xu is here too.”
His words were calm, as if he was in jail.
“I’ll give you a chance to tell me everything you know. Otherwise, the outcome will be very painful.”Xu Bai said expressionlessly.
“I’ve already told you everything I know. It was the Ye Family who asked me to do it. “Zheng Jin spread out his hands, indicating that he had confessed truthfully.
Xu Bai looked at Chu Yu. The meaning in his eyes was clear.
Chu Yu gritted her teeth, lifted the Ghost Head Blade, and slid it casually.
In the next moment, Zheng Jin’s limbs were all severed.
However, a miraculous scene appeared. There was no blood flowing out from the place where it was cut off. It was empty and there was nothing there.
There was flesh and bones, but no blood.
“As expected of Lord Xu. The rumors in the martial world are that you are ruthless.”Zheng Jin was slightly surprised as he saw himself falling to the ground.
This was the first time Xu Bai had seen such a scene.
His hands and feet were cut off, but no blood flowed out. He didn’t look like a human.
“Young Master, he doesn’t seem to be a coroner, but a branch of the Corpse
Carrying Man and the Corpse Sewing Man.”Chu Yu whispered into Xu Bails ear.
As if she was worried that Xu Bai wouldn’t understand, she explained again.
“Legend has it that when a corpse carrier is carrying a corpse, if they bump into something, they will be stitched up by a suturing person. The most ridiculous method of suturing is to sew themselves up with a corpse, leaving only their head. ”
” The effect of doing this is to achieve a long lifespan conversion. If one’s lifespan is near, they will be transplanted onto another corpse. This way, they will have a fake lifespan.”
“But the price for doing so is very high. They have no sense of touch or even pain. They have no combat ability either. They simply live a long life.”
Corpse carrier?
Stitched corpse?
“It seems that you have a grudge against the Ye Clan.” Xu Bai said with interest. ”
If Zheng Jin was really a branch of the Corpse Carriers, why would he expose the Ye family? In Xu Bail s opinion, it was very likely that he was framing them.
Of course, this was just a guess.
“What I said is true.” Zheng Jin smiled.” Besides, Lord Xu won’t torture me to get a confession. After all, I don’t even feel pain anymore. The so-called torture won’t work on me at all.”
“Okay, it’s not the Ye family.” Xu Bai said.
Zheng Jin was speechless.
He didn’t seem to have said anything. How did he know that he wasn’t from the Ye family?
Xu Bai looked at Yun Zihai and said,” The person behind this knows that I have something on me that can be used to force a confession, so he specially sent someone who can’t feel pain. It’s very obvious.’”‘
Zheng Jin was stunned for a moment before he reacted and said with a smile, “So what? Even if it’s not the Ye family, you won’t be able to get anything out of me. Why don’t I just tell you a few families?” His words were filled with two words- “I killed him,” Xu Bai said.
The Ghost Head Blade slashed past, and Chu Yu sheathed it.
Zheng Jin’s head was split into two and he lost all signs of life.
Xu Bai took the Ghost Head Blade from Chu Yu’s hands and sheathed it. He then brought Chu Yu out of the cell.
Yun Zihai had been frowning. He was a smart person and naturally knew that Zheng Jin was indeed changing his target.
As for Xu Bai killing Zheng Jin, he didn’t have any opinion on it. He felt that it was fine.
For a person who could not feel pain, no matter what kind of torture was used to extort a confession, it would be fake. It would be impossible to force out real clues. Instead of keeping him alive, it would be better to kill him directly. Otherwise, would he be kept alive for the New Year?
“Brother Xu, it looks like our trail is broken again.”Yun Zihai pondered.
“No, it didn’t.” Xu Bai shook his head.
“Oh?” Yun Zihai was stunned for a moment before he reacted and came to a realization. “Brother Xu means that we still have to go to the Ye family.”
‘ That’s right,” Xu Bai said without any hesitation.” Since Zheng Jin is a corpse sealer and has connections with the Ye Clan, we might as well start investigating Zheng Jin’s background. The Ye Clan must be very clear about this.”‘
Yun Zihai thought for a moment. That was the case, so he quickly prepared to leave.
Xu Bai and Chu Yu followed behind him. After the two of them left the cell, they saw Yun Zihai enter the room. Then, he quickly took out a few pieces of black clothes.
From the looks of it, he wanted to disguise himself and explore the Ye residence at night.
“There’s no need to go through so much trouble.” Xu Bai stopped Yun Zihai and said, ‘We’ll go openly. This time, we’ll come up with an open plot..””
