Although Mr. Hou said he was angry, he didn't take aim at the child. He quickly finished the steamed buns in his mouth in two or three mouthfuls, poured a cup of tea before standing up, and slowly wiped his hands.

In the meantime, Tao Yuzuo took Jiao Yun, one big one small one high one low and stood obediently with their hands in their hands. Master Hou didn't think that at first, but after looking at it this way, he felt that the movements were quite consistent. Those who didn't know thought he was the county magistrate. How to bully his father and son.

Lord Hou gave a low cough, straightened his official uniform slightly, and took the first seat: "Are you Jiao Yun?"

Jiao Yun made a bow, learned well, pursed his lips with a serious expression, and looked very steady like this. Although his voice was clear and childish, the introduction was very official.

Master Hou didn't care, thinking that Tao Xutang must have taught him.

After Master Hou listened, since he was given this opportunity, he also met, and the process had to go, but he didn't expect much from Jiao Yun, he didn't have any hope at all.

He is trying to save face for Tao Fu, but he will not show favoritism, and there will be no shortage of things that should be tested. "Since you are here, you are still young, but it is hard and tiring to do this job, but you still need to specialize in art. You want to work with Tao Wuzuo in the county government, but your age is not suitable. Now, this official has given this Opportunities, it depends on your luck, if you can answer all three items in the next test, then I will make an exception, otherwise, if you really want to, then wait another five years and come again."

Jiao Yun lowered his eyes, cupped his hands again, and agreed.

Mr. Hou still has to deal with official business later, cut the mess quickly, and started the first item directly: "Since what you want to learn is the post-mortem profession, the first item is not to be afraid of corpses. If you take you, you will see Even if the corpse trembles or behaves badly, it will also make the people feel that the county government is incompetent and affect the image of the county government in the hearts of the people. So, come and bring the corpse that was just found yesterday."

With Lord Hou's voice, two yamen servants ran out from the back hall almost immediately, they responded with wide-eyed smiles, and went outside to the morgue in the backyard to carry the corpse.

When passing by Tao Yuzuo, he winked and clenched his fists to cheer him up, but that expression was obviously more of an element of watching a drama.

Tao Fuzuo twitched the corner of his mouth, and when the yamen servant passed by, he moved his feet back, and the yamen servant quickly hid and disappeared.

When Master Hou looked over, Tao Wuzuo regained his composure and stood there, making Master Hou's brain ache.

Tao Wuzuo also had a headache. He didn't expect Master Hou to be so ruthless. He would get a big one as soon as he came. The reason why he didn't dare to take it directly to the county government yesterday was because he wanted to give Master Hou a chance to buffer; The corpse that was brought up was really not very...

He was just afraid that if Master Hou directly used the big move, he would really scare Brother Yun to tears.

Unexpectedly, I still didn't avoid it.

Tao Yuzuo wanted to remind Jiao Yun, but as soon as he took half a step, he heard Lord Hou say "hmm", he silently turned his head to one side, and stared at a corner with resentment, he finally agreed to help take in an apprentice, Lord Hou At any rate, save some face, as soon as I came, I scared the children to cry. This Mrs. Jiao is still standing outside, although she can't hear clearly, but the court is facing the gate, so she can still see it.

He patted his chest yesterday to promise that it would definitely work, but today he scared the cubs to tears as soon as he came up, this...he has no face to see Mrs. Jiao.

Jiao Yun was quite calm, he kept his eyes on the small movements of the two of them, and he probably guessed that the corpse that Lord Hou wanted to show him later was probably not a horrible one that could be described.

The two yamen servants quickly brought it up, and covered it with a white cloth "intimately", but just when they got close, they could feel the stench of decaying corpses, which made people sick.

The two yamen servants usually do a lot of business, but they are immune, but even so, they felt a little nauseated when they were carried all the way, so they quickly put it down and backed away.

He just walked around to the foot of the door, and quickly walked behind the door, looking at the courtroom through the gap.

Master Hou has been observing the corpse since it appeared, and found that the child seemed to have never smelled the stench, and raised his eyebrows in surprise, which is rare. If it was any other child, he would have frowned and showed strangeness, but this point made Master Hou Look at it differently.

It's a pity that I'm too young to do it.Master Hou sat there, and said calmly: "Do you know who this is?"

Jiao Yun lowered his eyes and replied respectfully: "The plaintiff."

Master Hou paused casually, glanced over, his eyes darkened slightly: This child is savvy, not to mention the corpse as the plaintiff, is he the plaintiff? If a corpse can be carried to the county government, it must not be an ordinary death but a victim If he killed him, he would be the sufferer. Even if he couldn't speak, he was definitely the plaintiff.

Lord Hou looked serious, "The first thing that the judge will test you is to lift the white cloth and distinguish whether the plaintiff is male or female."

The corners of Tao Wuzuo's mouth twitched even more, and he winked at Lord Hou: Don't pass it, my lord, he hasn't even learned it, how can he tell the difference between a man and a woman?What's more, with this corpse in such a miserable state, I'm afraid it's just, just...

Master Hou stroked his beard, calm and composed: Wouldn't it be good to shrink back and faint in fear like this?

Tao Wuzuo has a headache, everything has a process, and it is so exciting when it comes up, simply, my lord, this is still a seedling, which needs careful care.

Master Hou blew on his beard: That's unfortunate, this officer likes to destroy seedlings most.

Tao Wuzuo: ... count you as ruthless.

Tao Wuzuo had nothing to love in his life, so he turned his head and didn't dare to look at it. Although he thought Jiao Yun could be cultivated, the premise was that he was indeed a child. Such a tragedy can also scare, let alone children.

He was already prepared to be looked at by Mrs. Jiao with disappointed eyes, drooping his head and sighing.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, he didn't wait. He sneaked a glance over and found that Brother Yun had his back to him, and he only opened the soles of the corpse's feet to look at it.

Tao Wu made:? ? ?

Not only Tao Wuzuo, Master Hou also frowned: What is this kid doing?

Although Jiao Yun wanted to open it calmly, he was a child after all. He was calm and composed when he saw a corpse that was so corrupted that half of it was carrion and half bones. It's Master Hou, so if it's not so obvious if you can pass the test, then you can only do something smart about Master Hou's problem.

Mr. Hou said to lift the white cloth, but he didn’t mean to lift it all up, to tell the difference between men and women, and he didn’t say that he had to examine the corpses. There are many ways to tell men and women, one of which is very common, of course… …

When Master Hou and Tao Fu were puzzled, Jiao Yun had already covered a corner of the white cloth again, bowed to the corpse, and bowed to Master Hou again: "My lord, the plaintiff is a man."

Master Hou: "???"

Tao Wu made:! ! !

Tao Yuzuo looked at Jiao Yun in a daze, and couldn't help asking: "You, how do you know?" He didn't even look at it, did he?Just look at the feet...

Wait, by the way, for more certainty, they only need to check the male and female corpses from the appearance if they are complete.

But there are also simple and crude methods, directly looking at the foot bones, but this is not accurate. Once women's feet are born wide and long, they will be the same as men, so they usually do not use this method for accuracy.

But Jiao Yun is a child, Mr. Hou's problem is just to distinguish between male and female, which is normal, so it's okay.

Tao Yuzuo's eyes lit up suddenly, at least... Brother Yun was indeed right, this is indeed a man.

Master Hou has to admit that this child is a little smart and talented, and he can think of this way, but I still have to ask again... "How did you tell the difference?"

Jiao Yun said: "The length of the plaintiff's foot bones, plus his height of seven feet five inches, should be confirmed by the man."

More than 1.7 meters and nearly 1.8 meters, plus the length of this foot, it is really impossible to be a woman.

It is still possible in modern times. Most of the women in ancient times were petite or small. Even if there were top-notch ones, they would be at most seven feet. speechless.

Master Hou didn't expect that the child was smarter than he thought, no wonder he walked around the corpse at first, he thought he was too afraid to open it, but he didn't expect to measure the height of the corpse from his own steps.

Master Hou was silent for a long time: "You have passed the first item."

Jiao Yun showed two rows of small white teeth, and bowed his hands: "Thank you, sir."

Mr. Hou was a little guilty, but now he was a little bit serious about it. He realized that he had made a mistake and should not judge people by their appearance. He actually ignored the talent he might have because of a child's age.

If Tao Yuzuo hadn't guessed in advance what he would take the exam and told him in advance about the item just now, then this kid is indeed the most talented one he has encountered in his years of being an official.

From surprise to surprise, Tao Wuzuo raised his head to look at Master Shanghou, and quickly expressed his innocence: Sir, I don't talk too much, I never thought that you would be so cruel.

Lord Hou glanced at him quietly, but ignored him. He leaned forward with a serious expression, "Since you passed the first item, I will come to test you for the second item."

The two yamen servants outside were also shocked. This guy named Yun actually passed a test under the hands of the lord?Oh my god, are kids all this powerful now?

No, wait, shouldn't they feel sorry for their bet?He bet Tao Wu with one penny to lose all three events.

In the same way, there was a heavy breathing sound behind them at some point, and the two yamen servants turned their heads, only to find a bunch of yamen servants lying on their stomachs looking in at some time behind them, all of them had resentful faces.

The two yamen servants had a bad feeling: You also lost all the bets?

The crowd nodded slowly.

But who knew...they capsized collectively.

Jiao Yun in the courtroom was much calmer: "Sir, please tell me."

Master Hou didn't think too much about Jiao Yun's respect and politeness. After all, the grandfather of this child is Mr. Jiao. The second item is very simple, uncover all the white cloths, and find the three things that the official has hidden on him that do not belong to him. If you find them all, you have passed this level, otherwise..."

Although it is a pity that this child is highly talented, but he is still young, and it may not be too late to wait a few years.

Jiao Yun raised his eyebrows, but said nothing else, and bowed his hands in agreement.

He turned around again and faced the white cloth. For other children, how would they think about not screaming when they saw the corpse, but for him, it was how to act out the appropriate expression of fear and fear after seeing the corpse? You can still pass the level. After all, if you are not afraid at all, it is too abnormal.
