Listen to my heart in the morning and eat melons in the afternoon.

A middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest came, along with several young Taoist priests pushing carts.

Shi Fei noticed the person coming, but he decided to protect Tian Xiaoxiao and did not show up.

Tian Xiaoxiao wanted to stick her head out to take a look, but was pushed back by Ade.

"Miss, we'll just wait for the adults in the car, don't cause any trouble."

Tian Xiaoxiao retracted her head obediently. She didn’t know who the other party was, so her life was more important.

Tian Xingjian, Fang Mingyu, Dai Shijia and Hua Qing are still in the basement of the charity cemetery, looking at the bodies of Tong Shu and Tong Hua, discussing how to get the treasure map.

Hua Qing examined Tong Hua's body and came up with a plan.

The middle-aged Taoist priest looked puzzled when he saw an ancient carriage parked in front of the charity cemetery.

So he walked into the charity cemetery carefully and found that the center of the formation was still there and there was no sign of the formation being damaged.

When asked about the coffin keeper at the charity cemetery, he just said that he was doing official business and was borrowing the venue and would leave soon. The body he had left there was intact, and he urged the middle-aged Taoist priest to pay him quickly, as he had been guarding the body for three years.

The middle-aged Taoist priest took out five taels of silver and stuffed it into the coffin keeper's hand, saying thank you for your hard work, and that he would come to transport the coffin away today.

Then we saw young Taoist priests pushing a cart into the charity cemetery, and the coffin keepers helped move the coffin onto the cart.

All five bodies were carried out of the charity cemetery. The middle-aged Taoist priest looked back at Tian Xiaoxiao and their carriage, used his lightness skills, and walked away.

Tian Xiaoxiao: [Who is coming? ]

Daju: [A Taoist priest who set up the formation.]

Daju: [So strange, this formation uses a mortal body to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, who is the spiritual energy absorbed by? ]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [I'll leave this matter to you to investigate. My father will definitely not be able to find it. Are there any ghost melons in the charity cemetery? ]

Daju: [Yes, in theory, the cemetery is just a transit station for corpses, but in the basement of the cemetery, there are several corpses that have turned into bones and no one has claimed them.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [In this case, the corpse is not from Shengjing? ]

Daju: [He should not be from Shengjing. ]

There was no point for Tian Xingjian to stay in the basement, so he wanted to ask the coffin keeper about the situation in the charity cemetery.

The coffin-keeper's name was Hu Shengguan.

Tian Xiaoxiao, Daju and Ade were in the car listening to Tian Xingjian's questions.

I learned from Hu Shengguan that he had been guarding the charity cemetery for more than 20 years, and most of the unclaimed bodies in Shengjing were kept here.

He was only responsible for guarding the bodies. If some bodies were not claimed, the government would pay to bury them in a mass grave.

The government did not even notify him of some of the bodies, and he was powerless to do anything.

However, such cases are relatively rare. Currently, there are only three bodies in the charity cemetery that have not been claimed, and there has been no follow-up from the government.

Tian Xingjian asked Hu Shengguan to give him the record book.

Hu Shengguan knew that this was the new governor and did not dare to disobey.

All the documents from recent years were taken out and asked Tian Xingjian to look through them.

Tian Xingjian said that he would take the case back to the government office and check it together with the case files. Hu Shengguan was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything.

Tian Xiaoxiao: [Are there any more melons? ]

Daju: [The coffin keeper is a fugitive from Dongchang State.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [Murderer? Rapist?]

Daju: [Swindler.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [How much money did he cheat? He has been guarding the coffin here for more than 20 years, and he has no place to spend the money! ]

Daju: [A love scammer! ]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [That’s fine. My principle is that you can cheat on my feelings, but you can’t cheat on my money.]

Tian Lele sneezed. Is this girl, at such a young age, already obsessed with money?

Tian Xiwen and Tian Xiwu quickly covered Tian Lele, but it was too late, Tian Xingjian discovered them.

The four of them had no choice but to come out.

Tian Xiwen took the initiative to admit: "Dad, we are just curious, curious about the eldest princess, so, that's why we followed you to listen to your investigation."

Tian Xingjian: "Next time you don't have to hide, just follow if you want to listen."

Tian Xiwen understood what his father meant.

He responded excitedly: "Hey, hey, I get it, Dad."

The four climbed into the carriage.

"Shi Fei, send them back. I will be back to the government office in a while. Please tell Madam to prepare more meat for dinner. Then invite Feng Lei, Feng Yu and the others to come home for dinner." After Tian Xingjian gave Shi Fei instructions, Fang Mingyu, Dai Sega and the others also returned to the ground.

"Brother Hu, I still have a use for the body in the basement. I need to transport it back to the government office. I am deeply grateful for your help in guarding it these days." Tian Xingjian turned around and said something to Hu Shengguan.

Hu Shengguan was extremely scared. He thought Tian Xingjian was going to arrest him, but Tian Xingjian didn't react at all.

Am I the only one who heard those two voices?

Hu Shengguan lives in seclusion and is unaware of the gossip going on in Shengjing City.

After Tian Xingjian left, he closed the door of the charity cemetery and returned to a dilapidated little house next to the cemetery, which had been his home for more than 20 years.

After thinking about it all night, he realized that he had not done anything bad in Mingning Kingdom, and Dongchang Kingdom and Mingning Kingdom had no ties with each other anymore, so he would definitely not be sent back to Dongchang Kingdom.

Don't run away, wait and see how the situation develops. If it really doesn't work, it won't be too late to escape when the prefect sends people to arrest him. With his ability, is he afraid that he won't be able to escape from Shengjing?

In this way, Hu Shengguan continued to stay here and serve as the coffin keeper.

On the way back, Tian Xiaoxiao asked Daju to tell her in detail how the coffin keeper deceived people's feelings.

Daju: [Hu Shengguan is a monk in Dongchang State. His temple is very popular with women who come to pray for children. Nine out of ten women who burn incense in the temple and stay for a few nights will get pregnant when they return.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [I know this. In fact, the children conceived by those women are all from monks, right?]

Daju: [That’s not the case. There was an old monk in the temple who had great medical skills and he did cure women’s infertility. Later, the old monk passed on his medical skills to Hu Shengguan, who started to treat people honestly.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [What happened next? Did he become lustful after seeing so many beautiful women?]

Daju: [Later, a woman from a wealthy family, who had been married for ten years but had no children, came to him for treatment. The woman saw that he was strong and handsome, so she fell in love with him.]

Daju: [He has no romantic feelings for the woman, but her husband's family is very wealthy, and the abbot of the temple put a knife to his neck and asked him to pretend to like the woman.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [What happened next? ]

Daju: [The woman actually thought of divorcing her husband, just to stay with Hu Shengguan forever.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [The monk was scared and ran away? ]

Daju: [Yes. Because the woman’s innocence was slandered in the temple, and she reported it to the government. But the one who slandered her innocence was not Hu Shengguan, but the abbot.]

Daju: [The woman was cheated of her feelings and lost a lot of money. Her husband's family lost face and wanted to kill everyone in the temple, so he ran away.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [It's not a serious crime, so why would you flee here and hide your identity for so many years and not dare to go back? ]

Daju: [He was recognized on the way to escape and killed someone. The unclaimed corpses in the charity cemetery are the family he killed.]

Tian Xiaoxiao: [Did he carry the body to Shengjing? ]

Daju: [This is a mystery. I will explore it tonight.]
