Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Chapter 211 Disposing of the Corpse

Puyang Xuan nodded in agreement, "Sword Dance, you guessed right. When I came to Nan Yue before, I heard people talk about the Imperial Preceptor. He is a man of great wisdom and resourcefulness. He is well-versed in formations and Gu, and even the king has to give him some respect. Two princes have even become his disciples!"

Yang Jianwu scoffed, "He thinks he knows anything about formations and Gu?! He hasn't met his ancestor yet!"

The Grand Preceptor's voice came through the listening device again.

"Someone come here! Take care of this!"

"Yes!"

The guard who had escorted the woman to her room earlier entered. He was indifferent and showed no fear at the sight of the woman's gruesome death. He must have been used to such things. So, how many women had the Imperial Advisor harmed to make people so numb?

"Let's follow the guards and take a look!"

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

Yang Jianwu flashed out of the space, and with a wave of her sleeve, she brought the two of them out.

The first thing Mo Ye and Pu Yangxuan did upon emerging was to cover their noses...

"Ugh... Sword Dance, what's this smell? It's disgusting..."

Despite his discomfort, Mo Ye eventually couldn't hold back and vomited as well.

"Little Wu'er..."

"Um... it smells like Gu worms! Because there are many of them, the smell is quite strong."

Yang Jianwu stuck out her tongue and gave each of them a cooling pill. "You'll feel better after eating them. I've gotten used to this taste. I forgot to remind you..."

The two felt much better after taking the pills, and the smell seemed less strong.

"Are you feeling better? Why don't you two stay in the space?"

Men are all concerned about their image, especially when it comes to the woman they like.

"I'm fine now. I just suddenly felt a little uncomfortable from the smell, but I'm much better now!"

Mo Ye also indicated that everything was alright, and the three of them then caught up with the guards, with another guard joining them in carrying the body.

"Brother Tang, when do you think we can be transferred back to the camp? This place is so disgusting, it's full of bugs, and we can't touch the women in the prison. I feel like I'm covered in maggots."

The man called Brother Tang was the guard who escorted the woman earlier.

"Enough with the nonsense. We're here to assist the Grand Preceptor. When it's time to go back, someone will notify us."

"Hey, Brother Tang, do you think the Imperial Advisor always goes too far? All those perfectly good women end up as corpses."

Tang glared at the guard, "Don't say anything out of line next to the Imperial Advisor! You'd better watch your life!"

"Yeah, I know, that's why I said it, it's just the two of us..."

"Enough talk, finish this and get back quickly!"

"Yes, yes, Tom is right."

They walked in silence, carrying the corpse, and as they approached the mass grave, the guard couldn't help but start nagging again, "Brother Tang, we're in the middle of nowhere, how come there's a mass grave? And how come there are so many corpses? Where did they all come from?"

Tang Ge tightened his grip on the stretcher for a moment, then loosened it again. "How would I know? It's pitch black, and I don't know if there are any ghosts or monsters. Let's finish this quickly and go back. Maybe I can even get some sleep."

The guards' hair stood on end at the mention of ghosts and monsters. They no longer cared where the corpses came from; all they wanted now was to leave as quickly as possible.

One corpse, one soul; who knows how many ghosts and monsters lurk around here?

"Okay, Tang, let's go, let's go."

The guard quickened his pace, his heart pounding with nervousness. He lost his balance in his panic and fell to the side.

One end of the stretcher lost its balance, and the woman's body rolled off the stretcher, along with the straw mat covering her.

"Ouch, I'm so hurt... Ah!!"

"Shut up!"

The guard ignored his own pain and was completely terrified by the hole in the woman's chest. By the moonlight, he could vaguely see that it was empty; her heart had been taken out!

The woman's accident happened in the Imperial Advisor's room, so it must be related to the Imperial Advisor!

"Brother Tang..."

Tang threw down the stretcher, revealing a bloodthirsty smile. "If you had done your job properly, you would have been fine. But you messed up, so now I have no choice but to send you to meet the King of Hell!"

"Ah! Brother Tang! I didn't do anything! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about what happened today!"

The guard scrambled backward in fear, pleading, "Spare my brother Tang! I promise I won't tell!"

Tom cracked his knuckles and pulled out a dagger. "Whether you tell me or not, I don't know. All I know is that in this world, only the mouths of the dead are truly safe!"

He was about to make his move when the guard stood up and fought back desperately. As a guard, how could someone who was trusted by the Imperial Advisor be compared to an ordinary guard? He dealt with the man in no time.

Before leaving, it didn't forget to throw an insect into the wound. The insect drank blood and went berserk, summoning its companions.

"Congratulations, you've got your wish—maggots have appeared!"

Before long, the guard's corpse was covered with maggots. Tang glanced at it and then walked toward the woman's corpse.

The woman died with her eyes wide open, and the hole in her chest made her look rather frightening.

Tang grabbed the woman's clothes, threw her into the pit, and hurriedly left.

Yang Jianwu witnessed their evil deeds and pondered how to leave a great gift for the Grand Preceptor so that her trip would not be in vain.
