On the 9th day of baiting,

Location: Old Building of No. 3 Library, Yuxiu District,

Read "Strange Corpse Undertaker":

In ancient times, there were several occupations that were often considered evil.

Paper maker, executioner, corpse picker, corpse bearer, linker...

My name is Lin Miao, and what I'm going to talk about today is the Linker.

When it comes to the linker, many modern people may find it strange and have never heard of this profession, but there is a profession in modern times that I believe everyone is familiar with.

Undertaker!

Make up for the deceased, so that the deceased can go to the funeral decently.

In ancient times, all kinds of torture and lynching were rampant, so there were many corpses with separated corpses and miserable deaths.

There are also many incomplete bodies that died from various accidents.

So there is a linker, who specializes in re-sewing up the dead body to preserve the complete appearance of the dead.

It is also said that the linker not only connects the body together, but also helps the deceased to connect the broken souls of the dead, supersede the dead souls, and help the dead souls reincarnate.

The linker, or also called the mortician, is specialized in dealing with the dead, and eats the food of the dead.

It is also the profession that is most likely to be viewed with colored glasses.

Adults will always warn their children to stay away from the mortician and stay away from it. People around them always think it is an unlucky profession.

It's a bit like people eating pork with peace of mind, but at the same time look down on the butcher's profession, calling the butcher a cold-blooded executioner, but people have been eating pork all their lives.

I am an abandoned baby, picked up by my grandma from the mountains.

My grandma is a wire teacher.

It is conceivable how I was excluded in the village when I was a child, and my peers did not play with me. I spent more time quietly following my grandma, watching her grooming the corpses, so I I have been used to seeing all kinds of corpses since I was a child.

But the worst ones are those who died without a whole body, whose head could not be found after death, or who lost half of their body.

I have been with my grandma since I was a child, and I have seen dead bodies twice in total.

When he was eleven years old, there was a hunter in the village who went hunting in the mountains but did not return all day and night, so the whole village went to the mountains to look for someone, but in a rocky canyon, only the headless body of this hunter was found.

The blood had dried up and turned black, and the head was taken away by some wild beast.

The people in the village are most concerned about returning fallen leaves to their roots and being buried in the ground for peace, but without a head, how should this corpse be buried in the ground for peace? If the burial is forced, it may bring uneasiness to future generations, so the family of Orion came to my grandma.

On that day, my grandma stayed at Orion's house for a whole day. She locked herself in a room with the headless corpse alone, and no one was allowed to peek.

I finally saw the hunter's corpse, and it was completely intact. A paper man's head made of paper was sewn onto the hunter's neck. The size and facial features were exactly the same as the hunter's before. The paper man's head was used to replace the hunter. head of.

In a blink of an eye, when I was thirteen or fourteen years old, because I was sent to a middle school in the town, I would only go back to the village once a month. That was the second time I saw a dead body without a whole body.

It was a man from a neighboring village who went out to work on a construction site. Due to an accident at the construction site, the steel cable of the crane tower broke. The river was washed away by the water.

The owner of the construction site was quite conscientious, and asked people to salvage for more than ten days, but the salvage failed all the time, heartbroken, and the family found my grandma.

When the rooster crowed again the next day, grandma sewed up the corpse on time again. This time, half of the body was replaced with a paper doll, which was still lifelike. The proportions of the body, hands and feet looked exactly like a real person.

Although my grandma is a connection teacher, she never let me touch this industry. Grandma always looked at me kindly, saying that she only wanted to see me finish college safely, marry a wife and have children safely, and did not want to be rich Gui, I just want to watch me live my life in peace.

It was my grandma, with her aging and aging body, who raised me up with all the hardships alone, and worked hard from morning to night to earn all the school fees for me. I will never forget the kindness of grandma for the rest of my life. But when I was working as a summer job in my freshman year, the village head suddenly called me and told me the sad news that my grandma had passed away.

On the day my grandma passed away, a big boss in the city came to my grandma overnight with an ice coffin, and begged my grandma to groom the corpse. Only then did I know that my grandma’s identity was not simple . It turned out to be the corpse in this ice coffin. My grandma died on the night of grooming the corpse. Even the big boss in the city and the people he brought disappeared mysteriously overnight.

When I heard the news of my grandma's death, I almost had a nervous breakdown. A big man was crying sadly by the side of the road, and he wanted to see his grandma for the last time when he returned home overnight.

When I took the high-speed rail and bus for two days and two nights, I went back to the village and saw the dead body of my grandma for the first time. I, who was used to seeing all kinds of corpses since childhood, could tell at a glance that my grandma was killed by someone. of.

I thought of the big boss in the city, and the ice coffin. I was so angry that I rushed directly to the ice coffin. The ice coffin has always been placed in my house, and no one in the village dares to touch the coffin.

I opened the lid of the ice coffin, and immediately a gust of cold air hit my face, making my hands and feet a little stiff. However, when I looked at the corpse in the ice coffin, at that moment, boom, my head buzzed, and my heart trembled. A boundless chill.

Both hands and feet of the corpse had a circle of sutures.

Naturally, I can recognize what these are. A wireman has re-stitched the corpse for this corpse, but it is definitely not Grandma's method. If it was grandma's wiring method, I would never admit it wrong.

This is not the key point, the reason why I feel chills is because the size and skin color of the limbs, although I have tried my best to achieve the most coordinated, but through the details, it can still be seen that the proportion of the body of the deceased is different from that of the deceased!

Which second-handed linker is this, who actually committed the biggest taboo of a linker, sewing two corpses together!

This fucking is sealing up two grievances in one person...

In the old library, when the time jumped to 20:50, Wei Youran quit the electronic novel.

Then there is the rustling sound of the pen tip on the paper, 19:11-20:50, everything is...

Slap!

Suddenly, the quiet and silent library, like an ancient clock breaking through the thick and dark night fog,

A man's footsteps sounded...

Wei Youran held his breath!

At this moment, Wei Youran's eyes were calm, and the detailed content of the file emerged in his mind.

[Serial Disappearances].

Missing: 34.

Date of first incident: March 5.
