Chapter 21 - 13 Freeloader
Scattered silver snowflakes, collected ownerless corpses.
The corpse from the Government Office's prison in front of him was only wrapped in a piece of rag. According to the constable, this person died out of fear and committed suicide in the jail at night.
But when Xu Qing unfolded the rag, he found that the corpse inside was stark naked, without even a shred of cloth to cover the navel.
Looking at the death posture again, with hands clutching his knees and body curled up, it was clearly a death from cold and hunger, not a suicide out of guilt!
With the intention of uncovering the truth, Xu Qing reached out to touch the individual, attempting to summon the Immortal Scripture and read its life.
