C157 (1/2)

During the alternating seasons, Bai Yixuan was already feeling cold. It was as if small snowflakes were floating in the sky just for the sake of the scenery. The two of them walked to the bottom of the tree and saw the true appearance of that thing.

Bai Yixuan could only say that his vision was not bad, that thing was definitely not anything else. It was indeed a person that had been dead for an unknown amount of time, and had even rotted, so it was still possible to tell that it was a man.

Bai Yixuan felt that she was really unlucky again, and even brought such a thing to Mu Yefan. Mu Yefan did not say anything, only looked at the corpse seriously before shaking his head.

”I haven't seen this person before. I don't know when he came up the mountain, but it's been a month since he started rotting. I haven't come to hunt for a long time, otherwise, I might've found him earlier.”

Of course, Bai Yixuan knew that Mu Yefan had basically followed him outside to sell tofu for the past month, and indeed, she did not have the time to hunt. She also did not know when this person climbed up the mountain, or why she died in this place either.

”Was it suicide?” Bai Yixuan carefully circled around the corpse and looked, ”Do you want to commit suicide or not to report it to the authorities? Even if it is suicide, we have to report it to the authorities.”

Looking at the corpse would naturally affect his mood. In any case, Bai Yixuan no longer had any interest in the deer, she only thought about how to deal with the person in front of him, and wondered if it would be troublesome if she and Mu Yefan rashly went to report to the officials. After all, this county officer was not Zhang Xian.

”I'll put this man down first.” Mu Yefan did not say that he wanted to go, nor did he say that he wanted to go.

Although it was beginning to rot, Bai Yixuan could still see its face. After looking at the corpse, Bai Yixuan felt that this person must not be from a rich family, because her clothes were like that of a beggar's. Bai Yixuan was a little suspicious that this person's identity was that of a beggar.

Mu Yefan carefully checked the things on this person's body, but he was actually able to find them. That was a letter, or perhaps, a will, and this person's handwriting was not bad, so no matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem to match this person's identity.

When Bai Yixuan read it carefully, she realized that this person's identity was not just a beggar, but a wealthy merchant who had fallen into poverty. It was said that she had done a lot of evil deeds in her youth and had even taken revenge on her wife and children.

Right now, he was completely alone with nothing. He didn't know how he could live the rest of his life and his family's fire had caused him to lose everything. He no longer had the desire to live, so he decided to commit suicide.

”There's no need to report to the officials. Look at that person's last words, if anyone encounters his corpse, they can just bury him on the spot. Since that's the case, we don't need to report to the officials. This person no longer has any relatives.”

Not to mention that this person had done some evil deeds and received retribution in the end, this person's death was so hasty and lonely. If not for the fact that he had coincidentally met Mu Yefan, who knows when this person would have died and become a skeleton hanging on a tree.

”Then let's bury him.” Bai Yixuan said. The dead are big, but they are already dead, so there is no need to care about the past anymore.

The two of them started to use the tools at their hands to start digging, which was also out of their expectations. Bai Yixuan had never done this before, if someone were to see them bury their corpses in the Desolate Mountain, it would be scary just thinking about it.

Bai Yixuan didn't even have to move a little before she was finished by Mu Yefan. She didn't think that Mu Yefan had the skills to dig holes in the mountain, she knew that there wasn't even a corpse wrapped in the mountain, but since this person felt that he had been buried, then that would be it.

In the end, the two of them buried this person under the big tree that he hung to death, which could be considered as leaving this person's body and soul in this place. Bai Yixuan patted the dirt on her hands and sighed, after finishing all the work, it was already getting dark, and in the blink of an eye, it was already dusk, but because of the snow, he could not see clearly, causing the entire world to be confused.

Bai Yixuan looked at Mu Yefan and asked, disappointed, ”Is A Mu out of deer?”

Mu Yefan shook his head, ”He should be running away.”

”What bad luck. I can't believe this kind of thing could happen …” ”But at least I did something good.”

”Sorry, Xiao Bai.”

”What are you feeling sorry for, it's not your fault. It might be my unlucky soul that got infected by you, so don't blame yourself. Maybe I'm just a nobody. How can something like this always happen to me?”

”Don't talk nonsense.” Mu Yefan did not agree, ”It's better not to believe this. Xiao Bai, let's go, I'll send you home, the snow might get heavier today, you should rest at home tomorrow.”

Bai Yixuan nodded, ”Indeed, it looks like we will be using heavy snow. I have never seen snow on the mountain before, but thinking about how pitiful the person was just now, he doesn't look good at all. He's still a bit sinister.”

”There are no poor people.”

”What?” Bai Yixuan did not hear what Mu Yefan said clearly, because Mu Yefan's back was facing him and the only thing Bai Yixuan could see was the white breath that came out of his mouth.
