Chapter 82 Black Umbrella

The broken tombstone lies in front of the pile of mud and weeds.

Compared with the clean tombs arranged next to them, it is probably someone who believes that this place is a deserted tomb that has not been taken care of for several years.

"Is this the tomb that was buried on May 16?"

Lu Jiu's eyes passed through the rain curtain hanging on the edge of the oil-paper umbrella, looking at the "burial place" that once belonged to him, and really didn't know what to say.

I looked up at the gravekeeper's house because the distance was too far, and it was already a little blurry.

In the northeast corner of the grave, is there any thought of avoiding the crowd and gravekeepers...

"Those guys who should have killed Thousand Knife dared to come to rob the tomb in the middle of the night. If I hadn't discovered it, I might have succeeded. I didn't expect that by the early morning of the third day, the grave would have been destroyed again. What you see now is the result of my attempt to repair it. I don't know how the people buried here provoked them, and I won't be at peace after death!"

The old man sighed and said in a muffled voice,

"I also thought about contacting this person's family to repair it, but there was no word on the tombstone, and there was no trace of people from the charity village."

Maybe you can succeed?

It should be that I have been successful for a long time but I just dare not say it.

Lu Jiu glanced at the old man's obviously stiff expression and nervous body movements, knowing that he was probably deliberately concealing the fact that the tomb had been stolen. This rough repair method was obviously reluctant to make up for it, but the technique was not good, so he could only get a complete result in the end.

He can't blame him for doing this. If an elderly person loses this job as a gravekeeper, it is almost equivalent to wandering on the streets.

Lu Jiu didn't have the heart to pursue this now. He stared at the grave for a while, then took out a silver dollar from his backpack and handed it to the old man, and said, "Brother-in-law, you said that the grave was destroyed the next day after the two tomb robbers came. I want to know how much it was destroyed at that time... Don't worry, all the things you said here will be forgotten after I leave, so I hope you can tell it more clearly."

Holding two silver dollars in his hand, the old man subconsciously wanted to speak down and say that he had prepared a lot of words, but when he looked up, he saw that the man was staring at him through the rain curtain. Almost at the moment when his eyes were intertwined, the words he had just reached his mouth were swallowed again.

"The entire tomb was destroyed, the coffin lid was overturned, and the tombstone was also destroyed that night. It's strange that tomb robbery has not happened before, but I have never seen such a person who directly destroyed the grave."

"Did the body disappear that night or was it gone when the first tomb robbery?"

When I woke up, I appeared in Qingding City, which means that after my predecessor was buried in the grave, someone would have dug out his body again, either tomb robbers or heart-cutting ghosts!

"......The first time, the coffin was pried open after those tomb robbers came. When I realized that something was wrong, I secretly dug up the grave and took a look. It was empty inside. It was not that there had been any tomb robbery in the past, but most of them only took burial objects and had never encountered such a thing."

Knowing that the other party had seen it, the old man no longer tried to hide it and said hesitantly.

It's true!

Knowing this news, Lu Jiu's hand holding the umbrella handle suddenly tightened.

The speculations generated by previous messages in the charity village have been verified, and the development of things has become clear.

The tomb robber stole his body for unknown purposes, and the heart-cutting ghost who came to check later naturally didn't know that this was the case.

When he noticed that the body was not in the grave, the first reaction of the Heart-Gaoing Ghost must be that the people in the Yizhuang Village did not do what they told him, so he came to the person in charge of the Yizhuang Village on the 18th. I guess he went there in his own image at that time, and he got the answer he wanted through torture, so he turned to look for the two tomb robbers.

Since I am standing here now, it means that the two tomb robbers had transported their bodies to other places at that time, and this must be the second turning point.

No matter where my body went, it is certain that it fell into the hands of the Heart-Grapping Ghost.

It is precisely because of this that the heart-wrenching ghost will directly kill the two families. Releasing anger may have taken part of the reason, but Lu Jiu believes that it is more important to cut off all clues about the corpse of the predecessor in order to silence the mouth.

The purpose of his special killing so many officials with his own appearance is now obvious, that is, to imply that in this way, all those who are pursuing him have been killed by him, so naturally no one will spend any more time on this.

With this in mind, Lu Jiu couldn't help but start to consider the abnormalities he had appeared. What exactly did the heart-wrenching ghost persevere to him?

The predecessor found the Heart-Gaoing Ghost until he was killed by him. It took only two days before and after. During this period, he would not have the chance to obtain the pill that could turn him into a demon vein. The Heart-Gaoing Ghost would not feed the corpse elixir if he was full.

Could it be that dark golden mechanical heart?

Lu Jiu has already experienced its abilities personally, and its value is undoubtedly high.

Besides, the main reason for the death of the previous person was that the heart was cut off, and he could still preserve part of his perception in the coffin, so he could easily think of something replacing the original function of the heart. Lu Jiu did not think this was just a simple coincidence.

But these are just Lu Jiu's guesses after all. He has no actual evidence to prove that the dark golden mechanical heart in his body is a heart-wrenching ghost.

Of course, no matter whether it is, Lu Jiu has no intention of paying him back.

Until now, Lu Jiu's purpose in Changyi City can be said to have accomplished most of the time, and he already knows about what happened here in his predecessor.

The next key is what happened to the body of his predecessor after being taken away by a tomb robber, which involved Lu Jiu's resurrection and how he became a demon vein in just a few days. The two most important things in his opinion.

"Dadlock, have you ever encountered corpses stolen before? What do you think they usually use to steal human bodies?"

Retracting his eyes from the grave, Lu Jiu asked,

"Or where would they send these bodies?"

In addition to understanding the physical condition, Lu Jiu also wanted to use this to have a rough understanding of the possible location of the heart-cutting ghost.

After all, the information collected through the moment is undeniable that he has been targeted by the heart-wrenching ghost now. Compared to waiting for trouble to come, Lu Jiu is more inclined to prepare in advance.

"I don't know this, but I heard that those tomb robbers have private contact. You may be able to ask other tomb robbers... There are many people doing this in Changyi City."

The two discussed in front of the tomb, and their attention was on each other.

No one noticed a figure in a blue-gray cloth shirt that appeared in the wilderness at the southern end of the grave.
