Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Wang Tianxiao and Ding Xiang were speechless.

As for the theft of Green King Powder, they still haven't figured out who stole it. This is one thing, and secondly, they know very little about the strange disease.

In this way, it would be almost impossible for them to provide Gu Chan with any useful clues.

Gu Chan could only helplessly say, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I still have to go back to the City Lord's Mansion to look for clues. You guys are busy. I'll come and play with you later when I'm free."

"Why don't you go to Shenghe Cemetery? It seems that the coroner Yan there has performed autopsies on people with strange diseases before." Ding Xiang suddenly said.

Gu Chan's eyes suddenly lit up.

She was worried that she couldn't find any clues, and Dingxiang showed her a way to investigate the strange disease, which made her happy.

The three of them didn't say anything more after that. Gu Chan immediately said goodbye to them, left Wuyuanfang with the little maid, and headed towards Shenghe Yizhuang.

More than half an hour later, the two arrived at Shenghe Yizhuang.

At this time, there was only an old man in the charity cemetery, sitting at the door of the morgue smoking a pipe.

Gu Chan walked up to him with her little maid and said, "Old man, is Coroner Yan here?"

"It's me! Little brother, who are you?" Coroner Yan asked doubtfully.

"My name is Gu Chan. I was invited by City Lord Ye to help investigate the strange disease." Gu Chan explained.

Coroner Yan immediately became cautious and stared at Gu Chan.

Gu Chan grinned, her heart blossoming with joy.

If the old man acted calmly, as if nothing had happened, she would still be disappointed, but the more cautious he was, the more it proved that something was wrong with him. He must know something, otherwise he wouldn't be like this.

Thinking of this, Gu Chan pretended to be calm and said, "Grandpa, I heard that you performed autopsies on people with strange diseases before. Is that true?"

"It's true, but I couldn't find out the cause of the disease. And later, the sick corpse suddenly came back to life and ran away at night, so I don't know anything. It's useless for you to come to me!" said Yan, the coroner, while smoking a pipe.

As he said this, he blew out smoke in a relaxed manner, trying to make himself look as normal as possible.

Gu Chan laughed and immediately said to the little maid standing beside her, "Wait for me at the gate of the charity cemetery. I want to go in with the old man to see the body later. Don't follow us in."

"Okay, Manager Gu, I couldn't ask for more. The corpses inside are so disgusting, I don't want to see them!" the little maid said hurriedly.

After saying that, she quickly ran out the door to wait.

Gu Chan sat down next to the coroner Yan, quietly reached into her sleeves and took out two silver ingots and stuffed them into his arms, then whispered in his ear, "Don't pretend. As soon as I saw you like this, I knew you must know something. Tell me, and I promise not to tell anyone else that it was you who said it."

"Don't give me that crap. I really don't know." Coroner Yan pushed the silver back and said seriously.

"Oh, you old man, you don't want to eat soft things, but you want to eat hard things, right? Don't think I dare not beat you!" Gu Chan said pretending to be angry.

Coroner Yan glanced at Gu Chan and said with a strange smile, "You little devil, you are really interesting! I have already said that I don't know, but you insist on making me tell you. Are you done yet?"

"Okay! If you don't tell me, I will go tell City Lord Ye and say that you deliberately concealed the details of the strange disease and have you killed." Gu Chan said with a wicked smile.

Unexpectedly, the old man refused to budge and said indifferently, "I have lived enough in my old age. Am I still afraid of death? Besides, this strange disease is getting worse and worse. By then, everyone in the border of Yexing Country may be infected. We will die anyway. I don't care."

"Then you must have a family! I'll let City Lord Ye arrest you and lock you up. Watch me torture your family." Gu Chan said.

"All my family members died a long time ago, and I'm the only one left." Coroner Yan said with a faint smile.

“……”Gu Chan!

Dry!

This old man really stumped her.

Sighing helplessly, she could only spread her hands and said, "Forget it, since you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. I'll look for clues again. I don't believe that I can't find the cause of this strange disease."

After saying that, Gu Chan stood up and left with a stiff face.

But just as she reached the door, before she could even step out of the threshold, the coroner Yan asked, "Why do you want to find out about this strange disease?"

"For the people who suffered from the disaster in the Jiangnan area of ​​our Tiancang country." Gu Chan said while stopping.

"After all this time, it turns out you are not from Yexing Country!" said Coroner Yan in surprise.

Gu Chan looked back at him and nodded quietly.

Coroner Yan waved at her and said, "Come and sit down. Let's talk for a while. Young people should not be so impatient."

Seeing that there was still hope, Gu Chan smiled again and walked back to sit next to Coroner Yan.

During the next half incense stick of time, Coroner Yan asked one question and Gu Chan answered one question. Soon she told the old man the exact reason why she came to the border of Yexing Country and was involved in investigating the strange disease.

After understanding the situation, Yan, the coroner, sighed and said, "If you had told me clearly earlier, it would have been over. I thought you were like those people, trying to get some useful information from me and go to the city lord to collect the reward!"

"I don't need this little money." Gu Chan said unhappily.

"In the past six months, many people have taken false information to the city lord and received a lot of rewards. What I know about the strange disease is real and can definitely bring a lot of rewards, so when others ask me, I usually don't want to tell them." Coroner Yan explained.

Gu Chan nodded with relief, finally understanding why he refused to accept any request.

But the problem is, since Ye Tianyang has offered a reward and is willing to give money regardless of whether the news about the strange disease is true or false, why is Coroner Yan unwilling to take the real information he knows and collect this huge reward?

Puzzled, Gu Chan asked, "Then why don't you go to Lord Ye to report and claim the huge reward?"

"I am alone and work in the charity cemetery. The monthly salary I get is enough for me to live on. Why should I earn this money? And to be frank, if I really tell the city lord, I am afraid his life will be in danger." Yan the coroner whispered.

Gu Chan looked at him with eyes wide open. At this moment, she finally understood. It seemed that this strange disease was not as simple as she had imagined. It might be related to some big conspiracy!

Yan Ju smiled strangely and said, "You have to think carefully whether you really want to investigate for the city lord. If you really want to investigate, I'm afraid your life will be in danger."

"I'm going to die anyway, so why should I be afraid of anything? Just tell me." Gu Chan snorted coldly.

If she fails to get silver and food from Ye Tianyang this time, she will be forced to go to Kyoto to ask the prince for it, and then she might be killed by the prince.

Rather than dying at the hands of the prince, it is better to take a chance now. Maybe the bicycle can be turned into a motorcycle.
