This god is really evil

Chapter 4: Aged Human Cream
The apprentice dormitory in the charity cemetery was a large dormitory with a row of earthen kangs built along the wall, covered with a layer of straw, and then there were each person's mattress, quilt, and pillows made of rags and straw.

More than twenty young boys were sleeping in a row on this big bunk bed. The room was filled with the smell of sweat, stinky feet, greasy hair and young men's hormones.

Things like fleas and lice are naturally indispensable.

Fortunately, it is winter now, so the smell is a little milder. In summer, it would be so suffocating that it would make people faint.

The only good thing is that they are all energetic young men, and the smell alone can drive away evil spirits when they live together.

The clappers of the early morning shift at the charity cemetery rang out, waking up all the apprentices and helpers.

These apprentice helpers are the free labor force in the charity cemetery. In addition to collecting and cremating corpses, they also have to do all kinds of odd jobs such as sweeping the house, cooking, chopping wood, washing clothes, cleaning tables, sharpening knives, collecting ashes, etc.

Just killing black dogs and bleeding them every day to make prayer streamers for wrapping corpses is a lot of trouble.

Moreover, all these jobs are free, with no compensation except for meals.

Only by participating in work such as cremation and dissection of corpses can one get some salary.

Everyone clamored to get up and make their beds.

Although the bedding is worn out, it is the only possession of many people.

"Gao Zhiquan, you wet the bed again! You soaked my mattress!"

"Hurry up and go to the canteen. If you're late you won't be able to get the steamed bread."

"Alas, I have been doing odd jobs all day long. I have only earned two taels of silver in half a year. I have to give most of it to my parents during the New Year. When will it end..."

"Last night I got up to pee and heard someone crying. Is it haunted?"

"Let's go, after dinner, let's practice martial arts."

"..."

A group of apprentices and helpers were shouting and laughing, and the whole dormitory was full of energy.

"Niu Ma, did you practice until late again yesterday? What, do you want to be a master?" Zhao Qingshan, who had a shaved head, teased Niu Ma provocatively.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Although there are only more than 20 people in this shabby dormitory, they are divided into two factions.

One group came from Weizi Town, and the other group came from the village.

The apprentices from the town naturally have a sense of superiority and look down on the apprentices from the villages below.

The two factions not only competed for high-paying jobs, but also had disputes over eating, working and other aspects, and even fought several times.

Zhao Qingshan's father was a member of the Chai Gang in Weizi Town. He knew some tricks and taught Zhao Qingshan a few moves, so Zhao Qingshan naturally became the leader of this faction in the town.

However, Niu Ma became the leader of the apprentices from the village because he was stubborn and would fight to the death.

As for Li Yan, he would not help either side and would not join either side.

My uncle really has no interest in this kind of school bullying and mutual oppression and children's playing house.

We are all peasants, and we have nothing better to do than to pick on each other? Do you understand what it means for the lower classes to harm each other?

Because he lived on the edge of the town and was not accepted by either side, and he had been in the charity cemetery for the shortest time, he became the one who was aloof from the world here.

Of course, the main reason is that the master corpse dissection chef Wang Liang often gives the work to Li Yan, so that the apprentices are confused about Li Yan's background and dare not act rashly.

Zhao Qingshan's provocation immediately made the atmosphere in the room tense. According to the past, Niu Ma would have pounced on Zhao Qingshan and started fighting with him, which would have also led to a fight between the two groups of apprentices.

It will take at least as long as an incense stick of time.

But today, Niu Ma ignored Zhao Qingshan completely. It could even be said that there was no Zhao Qingshan in his eyes at all. He just stood up and went to the yard outside.

Then, practice, embrace, and train martial arts.

His movements were meticulous, as if he were a tireless machine.

"Niu... What's going on with Niu Ma's head?"

A young man spoke, and everyone realized that Niu Ma's forehead was swollen and looked bloody, but it was just covered with a thick layer of incense ash.

The incense ash kept falling as he held the stance and took steps, covering his face. He looked pale, like a dead man.

Zhao Qingshan's face was gloomy, but he didn't dare to say anything. He spat softly, "Bad luck", and went out to work.

Seeing that the two leaders did not take any action, the rest of the people also scattered like birds and beasts, going out to eat and work.

If we go too late, the larger potatoes will be picked out. Li Yan silently watched these apprentices from the charity cemetery and shook his head slightly.

These apprentices did not have any of the words and phrases that appeared in Niu Ma.

Obviously, there is not enough fate.

Or not miserable enough.

He has already decided that he will recruit Niu Ma under his command tonight to avoid any further trouble.

He was the last one to leave the dormitory and went to the canteen as ordered to eat two steamed buns and three potatoes.

Before I finished eating, I heard Wang Liang shouting:
"Li Yan, get out! You will be the one cleaning the furnace today! You must clean the crematorium thoroughly, without a speck of dirt!"

As soon as Wang Liang's voice rang out, the apprentices who were wolfing down their food in the cafeteria immediately fell silent.

These apprentices in the charity cemetery are called "five years of apprenticeship and seven years of service". Once they enter the charity cemetery as apprentices, they have to allow themselves to be beaten and scolded by the master chefs. They are basically treated like animals and ordered around.

And it lasts twelve years. Only those who survive twelve years are qualified to be corpse collectors. As for the master chef, it depends on luck.

Wang Liang had a bad temper and almost everyone was scolded by him, and many of them were beaten by him.

Why did this plague god come?

After hearing it clearly, everyone couldn't help but look at Li Yan in surprise, and some people couldn't help but have a gloating look in their eyes.

They had spent quite a while in the funeral home and had never heard of the need to clean the crematorium.

Of course they knew how dirty and disgusting it was in there.

This job is obviously difficult.

Originally, I thought that Wang Liang often asked Li Yan to participate in the cremation of corpses because he was taking care of him. But now it seems that this is not the case. He is just used to ordering Li Yan around.

After figuring this out, several apprentices who were sitting next to Li Yan and were originally a little afraid of him, couldn't help but relax. One tall and fat apprentice even stretched his legs and pushed Li Yan to the side.

Li Yan was not angry. He threw the last bite of potato into his mouth, clapped his hands and went out, saying:
"Master Wang."

Wang Liang was standing there expressionlessly, looking him up and down, and said calmly:
"Get the job done before noon, or you'll be the one to blame."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Looking at Wang Liang's back, Li Yan couldn't help but frown.

There is something strange about this Wang Liang.

During this period of time, Wang Liang had obviously targeted him in many things. Not only did he assign him a lot of work, which was considered a lucrative job, but he also often assigned him some inexplicable tasks on weekdays. Cleaning the crematorium was completely unnecessary.

There must be a purpose behind this.

Thinking of this, Li Yan couldn't help but do an anal tightening movement to tighten his back door.

No matter what the other party wants to do, we must improve our strength as soon as possible...

Just tonight!

Li Yan, wearing an apron, went in through the furnace, holding a shovel in one hand and a broom in the other, and started working.

After years of burning corpses, the inner wall of the crematorium was covered with a thick layer of human fat.

When you use a shovel to dig, your hands will get sticky.

I don't know why the crematorium in this charity cemetery suddenly needs to be cleaned.

Could it be that when a dead body is being burned, the furnace is not clean enough?

"Shh..."

The sharp shovel was inserted into the black human paste on the inner wall of the crematorium, and a large piece was shoveled off, revealing the human paste close to the inner wall.

Unlike the black color outside, the human cream inside is older and is as hard as asphalt.

At this moment, Li Yan's eyebrows suddenly heated up, and then he immediately saw an entry popping up from the inner layer of human ointment that had just appeared:

[Twenty Years Human Cream (White)]: [Passionate aged human cream, a good material for repairing statues]
