Hu Mo's reaction speed made the old man stunned. The old man smiled, picked up Hu Mo with one hand, and let the car swing and landed directly on the corpses. Then he smiled and said, "Due to your weakness, I will let you do a ride, don't say I don't take care of you! Haha..."

Hu Mo was immediately surrounded by a strong stinking smell of corpse. Even if he held his breath, he could still smell the smell. This situation made him frown. He was about to jump out of the car, but was surprised to find that there was no power in his body, as if everything had been taken away.

"What's going on? Master, you're too cruel to do this. I'm really going to start over!" Hu Mo shouted in his heart, but his expression was so muddy.

When the old man saw this, he thought Hu Mo was frightened and immediately shouted: "Hey, little guy, what's wrong with you? Are you scared?"

Hu Mo came to his senses and looked at the corpse of the child who rolled his eyes beside him. His face showed the kind of calmness that his peers did not have.

"What are you afraid of? I'm just a corpse, I haven't seen it. It's just that the smell is too bad and will affect my appetite tonight." Hu Mo said seriously, and the old man laughed loudly when he said something big.

"Interesting, you little guy is really interesting. Just sit in it first. The body of your body has not been collected yet, and it will take some time to go back. If you run behind, you may become a corpse as you run. From now on, you will learn to collect corpses with me. When I can't do it, you can take over me." The old man took a sip of dry tobacco and said with a smile.

Hu Mo knew that he wanted to find someone to support his elderly care, otherwise his old age would be in bleakness, and it would be too simple to turn from a person into a corpse.

Hu Mo asked in confusion, "Grandpa, can you still change your food to eat?"

"Of course, otherwise do you think I'm having nothing to do to do this hard work? This is a job specially sent by the county magistrate. In order to make Tianshui County look cleaner and tidy, he doesn't like to see so many corpses. So, there is a job like a corpse collector. Do you understand?" The old man put away the dry tobacco, hunched over, carried the belt of the chariot on his body, and pulled the chariot to move forward.

Hu Mo couldn't help but frown and said, "That county magistrate is just for cleanliness? Why didn't he find a way to change this situation?"

"Change? Little guy, you really think that it's a good thing to have someone help them collect the body. Do you want to change? Now wars are being launched everywhere in the mainland. Although our Tianshui County is behind the Tianlong Empire and is far from the battlefield, the males on our side have been almost completely seized. Think about it, the labor force in the family has been conquered, and with many years of disasters, how can a child like you survive? The rise and fall of the world is the people who suffer the most!" The old man suddenly sighed, this was, and he seemed to remember something, glanced at Hu Mo, and smiled and said, "Why do I talk to you, the little guy, you won't understand."

Hu Mo didn't answer, but was thinking about many things in his heart. It has to be said that this world seems to be much more chaotic than the human world, but this is mainly civil strife. This is the problem he wants to solve.

However, the most important thing now is his own problem. Now he is even more useless than a useless man. All his power is imprisoned, and he is weak and weak. In this state, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to make this world reach the level of gods.

Despite this, Hu Mo knew in his heart that since he came, he would be at ease. Fortunately, the time here is very different from that of the outside world, otherwise this would be a big problem.

Through conversation, Hu Mo learned that the old man's surname was Zhang, Zhang Tieniu, and he was a coroner from Tianshui County, and he worked part-time to collect corpses. Tianshui County was a small county in the Tianlong Empire. One hundred miles east of it was an ocean, which was relatively wealthy. However, in the era of wars, it was difficult to escape such a place. At first, only three people were drawn, but later, all the male people were conquered, and later, even women were unable to survive. Those poor families were the most miserable, and many of them were destroyed. This paradise turned into a dead place, with nine out of ten families empty, which was extremely bleak.

As soon as Zhang Tieniu opened his mouth, it was out of control. While pulling the cart, Zhang Tieniu told Hu Mo all the time he knew, which was already traced back to what happened when he was a child.

Hu Mo didn't mind. He just wanted to understand the world from many aspects. Speaking of which, Zhang Tieniu's life was also very miserable. He was an orphan since childhood, and then struggled to grow up on the brink of death. He was similar to Hu Mo's current situation. He was also taken in by a corpse collector and then worked in this industry for so many years. In the end, when the corpse collector died, he took over his job and became the coroner and the corpse collector for decades.

When Zhang Tieniu talked about this, he was quite proud. Because the person who took him in the room finally starved to death, but he was different, and he lived quite well. The main reason was that he was very flexible and knew how to observe his words and expressions and suit his preferences.

Not only was he a coroner and a corpse collector, he also taught himself tomb robbers and some Feng Shui and five elements. Every time he got some antiques from the tomb, he would dedicate it to those high-ranking officials and nobles. The benefits he gained from this can naturally be imagined.

He also bluntly told Hu Mo that the reason he took in was to collect his body for someone to bury him when he got old. It was that simple.

Along the way, they collected a lot of corpses. Some were in some broken houses, swollen and even turned into bones. Some were in the wilderness. According to Zhang Tieniu, those corpses were not within his work scope at all, but he still struggled to put away the corpses in order to kill the children and have a whole corpse.

Along the way, they sometimes passed by some big families, smelled the fragrance coming from inside, listened to the music coming from inside, and there were a series of laughter and joy. Hu Mo couldn't help but think of a poem he had read before: "The wine and meat smell bad, and the road is frozen to death." This sentence is really good to describe the scene at this time.

As the sky was getting dusk, Zhang Tieniu pulled Hu Mo to a dilapidated small house. Although Hu Mo had no power on him now, his spiritual sense was still quite sharp. He could feel that this dilapidated small house emitted a very cold aura. The aura seemed to be the netherworld aura he had seen before, making people feel creepy.

Zhang Tieniu looked at Hu Mo's expression change, smiled and said, "Don't be so afraid. This is your home in the future, and there is nothing to be afraid of. The corpses placed here are just some innocent children who died, all of them are kind families. If you see any children at night, remember to comfort them more."

If Hu Mo was just an ordinary child, he would probably be scared by him. However, now he just smiled faintly and said, "Grandpa Zhang, don't worry, I will comfort them well. In fact, it's pretty good. There are so many peers here to play with, which is not too scary."

Zhang Tieniu originally wanted to see Hu Mo's joke, but after hearing Hu Mo say this, he immediately had no choice and pushed the cart into the broken house with anger.

Hu Mo followed behind him and walked very slowly. Although his spiritual sense was very strong, his body was too weak, and his long-term hunger made this body look as thin as a skeleton, and he was a little fluttering when he walked.

Just drifting into the broken house, Hu Mo saw many coffins, some straw mats placed on the ground. The stinking of corpse echoed in the room, and there was also the smell of strong vinegar. It was to isolate the corpse gas here, otherwise there would be no one here.

Zhang Tieniu piled the newly arrived corpses on the ground, then loosened his muscles and bones. He walked to a small cabinet, opened the cabinet, took out a plate of snow-white steamed buns, and handed them to Hu Mo, saying, "Eat some steamed buns first, recuperate your body in the past few days. How can you work without the strength? From now on, you will guard the corpses here in the evening. If there are any wild wolfs and dogs coming in, you will immediately call me. Since these corpses have entered this house, even if they are our guests, they cannot be wronged."

Zhang Tieniu said something that made Hu Mo feel a little chilled, but when he thought about it, he couldn't help feeling it. Although Zhang Tieniu looked a little cunning, his heart was pretty good, which made Hu Mo feel a little unsatisfied.

Hu Mo nodded and said, "Grandpa Zhang, I understand. Oh, by the way, why aren't these corpses buried? They probably won't be left here all the time."

Hu Mo didn't bother me to be dirty. He picked up a steamed bun and started gnawing, saying as he chewed. His body needed too much energy, and this energy was naturally drawn from food.

Zhang Tieniu looked like a fairy-like figure, pinched his fingers and calculated, and said, "This is not something you little kid can understand. This burial is very particular. How can you say that you are burying it? These children suffered all their hardships before their death. Of course, they should find a good tomb for them after their death, and then cooperate with the heavenly stems and earthly branches to find a good time to bury them. In this way, they can also commit to a good family in the next life and will not be burdened by the previous life. I will teach you these things in the future, don't be anxious, don't be anxious."

Zhang Tieniu waved his hand, took out the cigarette rod, and started to suck. Hu Mo had already eaten a plate of steamed buns without knowing it, and the feeling of fullness made his body much more comfortable.
