Chapter 108 Changes

"So if you go, unpredictable things are likely to happen. It's more appropriate for me to go." Jin Liang reached out and patted Abiao's shoulder. "Don't worry, I'll be very careful, nothing will happen."

Abiao nodded, not saying anything more. With a gong sound, Abiao and Jin Liang both looked towards the door. "He actually survived..." Abiao gritted his teeth. Not long ago, they had exchanged information with Yu Chengmu, who had returned, learning that the second person was Chen Hao, as well as the situation inside the Yizhuang (funeral home). Jin Liang took a deep breath, his face gloomy, and said, "This Chen Hao really has some skills. Yu Zhangyan's arrangement didn't kill him." "Boss, he will definitely take revenge on you." Abiao said in his accented Mandarin, "You must be careful, and I want to remind you, your time is not as sufficient as the previous two people. If you don't finish before dawn, you will be in great danger." "Got it." Jin Liang pushed open the door and left. On the way, Chen Hao was waiting for him under a tree. Seeing Jin Liang approaching, Chen Hao greeted him warmly, even more enthusiastically than Yu Chengmu before. But in comparison, Jin Liang was a bit cold. He only said a few words before leaving in a hurry, and his smile was not as bright as before. Watching Jin Liang's back disappear into the distance, Chen Hao didn't know if the gift he had prepared would be liked by the other party, nor did he know if he would have the chance to ask him in person. Stepping into the Yizhuang, a stench hit him in the face, and even more unsettling than the stench was a chilling atmosphere, setting the tone for this mission. Lu Yunze reminded him that once a taboo is triggered in the mission, it will attract something extremely terrifying, something that leaves wet footprints, possibly from the river. Because he hadn't seen its true form, Lu Yunze wasn't sure what it was. Passing through rooms 1 and 2, Yu Chengmu only observed, not touching any props, until he lifted the white cloth and arrived at his mission location, room 3. Upon arriving, the first thing he noticed was the three incense sticks in the incense burner. Immediately, he frowned. Wasn't this Jin Liang's arrangement? The latter had told him that this was prepared for the person in room 2, so why... is it here too?

Slowly, he carefully walked over and slightly lifted the incense sticks, confirming his suspicion. This was indeed Jin Liang's arrangement. He didn't expect that little bastard Chen Hao to learn it and use it to deal with him. But he knew in his heart that this was just an appetizer. Being able to survive Jin Liang's arrangement in the first place showed Chen Hao's ability. He must not underestimate this person. With Jin Liang's experience passed on, Yu Chengmu's path was much easier. He knew that room 4 was temporarily dangerous, and as long as he didn't destroy the props, he would be safe. Moreover... that corpse was also part of the props. Taking the incense from room 4, it was indeed as Jin Liang said, there was no problem. After lighting it on the candle, he inserted it into the incense burner in front of the corpse. Watching the smoke rise straight up, Yu Chengmu gradually calmed down. After bowing to the corpse a few times, Yu Chengmu intended to finish checking the corpse. Because the candle was inserted in the candlestick, it was not easy to move. Yu Chengmu, as Jin Liang said, found a spare candle under the shelf. But just as he was about to light the candle, Yu Chengmu suddenly noticed a strangeness. His hand touched the candle, and there was a normal feeling of friction, not as rough as he imagined, as if...

As if there was some powdery substance on it. He took the spare candle and slowly brought it closer to the burning candle. With the help of the candlelight, Yu Chengmu finally saw clearly that there was a layer of powdery substance on the head of the candle. Because it was not ground very finely, he was able to feel it. Almost immediately, he knew what this was: horn powder!

That bastard knew that to check the corpse, he had to use a spare candle, and he actually sprinkled horn powder on the head of the candle!

How depraved does one have to be to come up with such a dirty trick!

Isn't he afraid that his family will suffer retribution!

Yu Chengmu was furious. In any case, he dared not use this candle. So, he went to the adjacent room 4 to take a new spare candle. He also thought about whether to take everything from room 4, but after some thought, he felt it was better not to do that. The mission wouldn't be so malicious as to leave him such a big loophole. Perhaps these props contained some hidden dangers. Using them for emergency use was barely acceptable, but if he took them all, he probably wouldn't even know how he died. At that time, perhaps the corpse in room 4 wouldn't be lying obediently on the shelf for him to manipulate. The picture was too beautiful, he dared not imagine it. After thinking about these things in his mind, he began to check the corpse. He was different from the previous two people. He only had a little over an hour. After this point in time, it would be dawn. The corpse was a male corpse, missing its left hand. There was no way to sew it back on here, so he could only make it out of dough. In addition, there were two wounds on the leg and abdomen, similar to what Jin Liang said. The wound on the abdomen was very large, messy inside, which made people's heads hurt, but fortunately, nothing was flowing out, which also saved him the trouble of stuffing those things back in. Yu Chengmu didn't care about being disgusted, mainly because it wasted time. His time was his life. He roughly estimated that sewing up the wounds on the leg and abdomen, and then making the left hand and attaching it to the corpse, would take more than half an hour in total. So, the time left for him could only be said to be barely enough. He immediately took out the needle and thread and began to sew up the wounds. The sewing process was surprisingly smooth, even feeling like the heavens were helping him. Yu Chengmu was certain that, barring any accidents, he could complete the mission on time. He pulled out the last stitch, looked at the tightly stitched wound on the abdomen, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. But the next second, a strange scene suddenly caught his attention. The three incense sticks had unknowingly undergone a change. The two incense sticks on either side seemed to be being sucked on by someone, burning at an unusually fast pace, while the middle incense stick was burning abnormally slowly. The consequence of this was that it had burned into two short and one long. This was not the most terrifying thing. The smoke from the two incense sticks on the outside had also changed. Instead of rising straight up, they made a turn and floated strangely in another direction. Lu Yunze moved his line of sight inch by inch, his neck even stiffening. He was horrified to discover that the two wisps of smoke had all floated into the corpse's nostrils! As the corpse continued to inhale the smoke, its eyelids twitched almost imperceptibly, and then, slowly opened a crack, revealing clear eyeballs.
