Chapter 6 Corpse Memory
Xie Que thought for a moment, then consumed a useless white entry and began to review the corpse's memory.
The corpse's name was Jia Dalin. He was an orphan and worked as a coolie in Jinmen City for a living.
I carry a sedan chair for this family today and deliver goods for that family tomorrow. Although the money is not much, it is more than enough to eat and drink.
Among the coachmen who hang out with Jia Dalin, there are several practitioners.
Jia Dalin then learned some moves from them. By coincidence, what he learned was Yan Qing Quan.
It's just that Jia Dalin was born ugly, and when he was in his twenties, he was still inseparable, so he found several matchmakers one after another.
But when the girls saw Jia Dalin's appearance, they all rejected him.
In the end, there was only one girl left, whose appearance was equally vulgar, and she never rejected Jia Dalin.
However, the other party asked for ten taels of silver, which was difficult for Jia Dalin.
The next day, Jia Dalin was stopped by a rich young man on the street and claimed to know about his appointment as a matchmaker.
The young master named Fan told Jia Dalin that if he dared to stay one night at the Song family's ancestral temple outside the city, he would be given twenty taels of silver.
Jia Dalin had also heard that the Song family's ancestral temple was a haunted house, but when he thought of the eldest girl, he didn't care about life or death.
At night, Jia Dalin was very drunk and entered the Song family ancestral temple.
Unexpectedly, the young master sent someone to lock the ancestral temple to prevent Jia Dalin from escaping.
With the help of alcohol, Jia Dalin took a tour and found nothing unusual.
Immediately, he boldly sat on the lid of a coffin!
He didn't sleep either, and while he was emboldened by the wine, he stared at him, trying to see what was weird.
The third watch had passed, but no ghosts were seen, and several masked men suddenly broke in.
Jia Dalin had practiced martial arts, but he was so drunk that he was knocked unconscious after a few rounds.
When he woke up, Jia Dalin found that he was locked in a coffin, and his screams were unresponsive to heaven and earth.
Listening to outside discussions, it turned out that the Fan family master was dying soon.
However, the Fan family master listened to a traveling Taoist preaching that if a living person was buried alive, he could protect his family's fortune for a hundred years.
After hearing this, the father and son had their own thoughts, and finally fell in love with Jia Dalin, who had no relatives in the city.
Fortunately, Jia Dalin was born with great strength and had a short blade sewn into his sleeve.
He finally found a gap in the coffin lid, and after prying it open, he found that he was in the hall of the mansion.
It was midnight and there was no one around, so Jia Dalin drank the wine on the table and killed everyone he saw in the house.
After Jia Dalin killed more than a dozen people, he was discovered by a patrolling official.
He was chased by officers and soldiers to the Wuding River, where he jumped and drowned due to lack of physical strength.
After Xie Que woke up from Jia Dalin's memory, he saw Dashun standing in front of the morgue.
He quickly took off the straw sandals on Jia Dalin's feet and began to gesture to Dashun.
After Dashun heard what happened to Er Meng, he did not react. Instead, he took the straw sandals from Xie Que and walked out.
Xie Que quickly followed behind his adoptive father.
Unexpectedly, Dashun threw Ermeng's shoes directly into the firewood pile, mistaking them for hay and wood.
Although Xie Que didn't quite understand what Dashun was doing, he felt a little relieved when he thought that his adoptive father had not had any trouble in retrieving corpses for so many years.
Looking back on Jia Dalin's memory, Xie Que only lamented that it was the evil way that harmed people.
However, a casual word from a wandering Taoist priest can actually cause someone to lose his life.
But Xie Que's biggest gain was that Jia Dalin also learned Yan Qingquan.
However, many details are different from what Dashun recorded, and even the stance of Zhuang Gong is slightly different.
Even so, Xie Que was able to draw parallels and get started with this boxing technique faster.
The only difference between Xie Que and a true beginner is proficiency.
According to the records in the boxing manual, Xie Que can only be considered a complete beginner when he can hit three consecutive punches with the sound of breaking through the air.
Yanqingquan emphasizes punching speed, and with careful practice, it is not difficult to make a sound that breaks the air.
According to Jia Dalin's memory, he had been practicing boxing for thirteen years before getting started.
Although I have entry bonuses and Jia Dalin's memory, I have only been practicing boxing for two or three days, and I am still far from getting started.
However, before getting started with boxing, the most important step is to polish the body. Having a strong body is the key to being able to make a sound that breaks the air.
After washing his muscles and cutting off his marrow, Xie Que estimated that he was not far away from such a physique.
It's just that my boxing skills are still very raw and need to be practiced over time.
At noon, when Dashun was busy in the kitchen, several people came outside and wanted to collect the body.
Several people were walking in a hurry, and one of them was dressed strangely. He was actually wearing a hood on a hot day, and his face could not be seen clearly.
One of them entered the morgue to identify the body, and it was Jia Dalin's body that they wanted to take away.
This made Xie Que feel quite strange.
According to the record of Judgment of Death, Jia Dalin fled to Jinmen City with his parents when he was young. After being separated from his parents, he became an orphan and has never had any relatives.
The people I usually have the best relationships with are just a few cart drivers in the city.
But they would not pay a large sum of money to collect the body for Jia Dalin.
One of them even pretended to be crying: "Cousin, why did you just go?"
The man approached Jia Dalin's body, probed the center of the body with his hand, and quickly withdrew his hand.
He mysteriously approached the mysterious man wearing a hood and nodded imperceptibly.
The hooded man also raised his head and looked at Jia Dalin's body.
A familiar face suddenly came into Xie Que's eyes.
This man was the person who led Jia Dalin's death, the young master of the Fan family, Fan Yong.
In Jia Dalin's memory, Fan Yong had been stabbed into the heart by him, killing him on the spot!
A dead person stood in front of him alive, which made Xie Que feel strange.
It's just that Fan Yong's face is a little pale, different from recovering from a serious illness, more like a corpse turning pale.
Although he knew that there were ghosts and gods in this world, the resurrection of the dead still shocked him.
Several people lifted Jia Dalin's body and moved it into a thin wooden coffin they brought.
Xie Que remained calm and just secretly noted down the physical features of these people.
After they paid the money, they carried the coffin and left.
Xie Que thought for a moment and did not follow him.
Since Fan Yong can come back from the dead, it means that there is some unknown power behind him, which he cannot provoke now.
As Xie Que was thinking about it, he discovered that Dashun was holding a stick of incense and sticking it on the ground.
He recalled that this was exactly where Fan Yong had been standing just now.
Xie Que found that the soil on the ground here was a little burnt and black, and seemed different from other places.
When he was about to ask Dashun, his adoptive father walked into the kitchen again.
Xie Que followed behind, still wanting to find out what was going on, but Dashun turned a deaf ear to it, so he had to give up.
After eating, Xie Que started practicing boxing.
With the bonus of "keep your fists away from your hands", Xie Que has already mastered the most basic kicking skills in boxing routines.
The left fist is also under the effect of the "Qilin Arm" and can easily punch through the air.
Thinking that he was already proficient in vertical feet, he began to practice advanced pile exercises, still focusing on the stability of the lower body.
Xie Que jumped onto the water tank and started walking along the edge of the water tank to practice boxing.
