Xu Bai took the stack of paper and scanned it from beginning to end in detail.”Ye Clan?”
There seemed to be a lot of content on it, but in the end, it only pointed at one family, the Ye family.
Yun Zihai explained,” The big family in Yunlai Mansion was originally in the business of carrying corpses. In the end, there were frequent wars in that era, and too many people died. Therefore, they made a fortune and settled down here. The current generation’s Ye family head, other than carrying corpses, also practiced martial arts and was very good at fighting.”
Carrying a corpse didn’t mean carrying a dead person on one’s back, but rather a ritual.
He dug a hole and removed the side panel of the coffin. He climbed into the coffin upside down, not daring to face down. He did all the backhand work.
That’s why it’s called a corpse.
To learn this profession, there were two requirements: One was bold, and the other was ugly.
It was fine if they were bold, but being ugly was another reason. After all, they were carrying corpses. In order to avoid accidents on the way and prevent the corpses from becoming strange, being ugly had an innate advantage.
If you are ugly, you can go to the evil spirit.
As for what the principle was, only those in the industry knew.
“How good can I be at fighting?” Xu Bai looked at another spot and said.
Yun Zihai thought about it and cleared his thoughts. Then, he gestured with his hand. “This generation’s Ye Clan’s Patriarch is called Ye Men. He’s a Sixth Stage Dual Cultivation Expert. It’s said that he can fight ten experts of the same level.”
‘You can fight ten of them?” After Xu Bai heard Yun Zihai’s answer, he was slightly surprised.
This was beyond his expectations. A person could fight ten experts of the same level. This was no longer a question of whether he could fight or not. He was very good at fighting.
“However, I did some investigation. His family doesn’t have any background. They just made a fortune during that period of time and didn’t cause any trouble in Yunlai Mansion. Since then, they’ve been running their own business, occasionally taking on some business.”Yun Zihai coughed.
In this day and age, one had to have some background to do anything. If one did not have a background, one had to keep a low profile.
If it was really as Yun Zihai had investigated and the Ye family did not have any background, then why did they dare to do such a big thing?
Attacking two officials of the Imperial Court was a serious crime.
“Maybe you didn’t find out. Maybe there’s some hidden background.””What do you plan to do by calling me here?” Xu Bai asked slowly.”
Since he had already found a clue, with Xu Bai’s temper, he could just go over and look for it. However, Yun Zihai had called him over alone, so he must have his own ideas. He wanted to hear it first.
“Actually, I called Brother Xu over because I want to borrow the medicine in your hand. It’s the poison that is specially used to force people to confess. “When Yun Zihai said this, he appeared very ashamed.
He had just arrived at the government office and did not have any useful manpower. It was equivalent to him being the only one busy.
“So you haven’t found out the truth yet. That’s not a problem. By the way, where’s Liu Er?”At this moment, Xu Bai realized that Liu Er was not in the government office.
He had lent Liu Er to Yun Zihai. Now, it seemed that Yun Zihai had arranged for Liu Er to go somewhere else.
“I arranged for Liu Er to go to the Ye family and observe their movements.”Yun Zihai explained.
Xu Bai frowned.” He’s only a Level Nine martial artist. Is it safe for you to arrange for him to go there?’”‘
“Brother Xu, don’t worry. I gave him a piece of paper. On it, I wrote an article. If there is danger, I will protect him at the first moment. Even a Level Six expert will need some time to break through.”Yun Zihai made a relieved expression.
“I see.”
After receiving the reply, Xu Bai temporarily ignored Liu Er’s matter. He took out a medicine bottle from his pocket and was about to open the door when he suddenly stopped.
Yun Zihai’s face was filled with confusion. He did not understand what Xu Bai wanted to do.
He recognized the medicine bottle. It contained the pills that Xu Bai often used to force confessions.
Xu Bai turned his head and looked at Chu Yu. He threw the medicine bottle in his hand at her, then took out the medicine for external injuries and threw it at Chu Yu at the same time.
Chu Yu was still staring at the prison cell curiously. When she saw Xu Bai throwing two medicine bottles at her, she quickly caught them in a flurry. Her clear eyes were filled with confusion.
Why did he give her the medicine bottle?
Wasn’t she here to get a role?
“Young Master…” Chu Yu was about to speak when Xu Bai interrupted her.
Xu Bai pulled out the Ghost Head Blade from his waist and threw it to Chu Yu. He pointed at Zheng Jin who was in the cell and said,’”‘Go and cut off his hands and feet, then treat him with medicine for external injuries. Finally, give him another bottle of poison.” Chu Yu was speechless.
“Don’t you understand?” Xu Bai shouted.
He had been looking for an opportunity for Chu Yu to put it into practice. It was the best opportunity to put it into practice, so he could not let it go so easily.
After all, he had accepted someone else’s Nameless Saber Scripture, so he still had to put in some effort. After all, he was being paid to do things.
To open a business, to be a man of the blue was to be honest. Only in this way would there be repeat customers.
Chu Yu’s face was filled with rejection. She put on a pitiful look and said, “Young
Master, I’ll just kill him with one slash. I don’t want to do this.”
Her uncle had taught her to kill people before, but he had never taught her to harm people in this way. She could not bear it.
“If you don’t want to do it, then go back. I don’t welcome you here.”Xu Bai said with a straight face.
Chu Yu immediately quivered and said hurriedly,’”‘l’ll do it, I’ll do it, but can we compromise? I’ll cut off his hands and feet, and Young Master will apply the medicine for him..”
