I Became An Acre Of Haunted Land

Chapter 2: Someone Throwing Corpses in the Wilderness!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xiang Ye tried his best not to think about the pain in his soul and forcefully diverted the thoughts in his mind.

Then he turned his gaze to the tightly tied cloth bag beside the pit.

Looking at the bulging cloth bag, Xiang Ye felt that he already knew what was inside.

“It’s… a woman…”

“She’s… dead…”

“Then… the two of them… are here to… deal with… the corpse…”

“What… did I see…”

“Body disposal… This is a murder scene…”

Xiang Ye watched as the two people left and then walked over again.

They now wore masks and each held a bundle of branches.

After arriving at the territory where they had dug the pit, they swung their hoe again.

Before Xiang Ye could prepare, the soul-tearing pain began again.

“Ah! Ah! Ah!”

“It hurts!”

“Please stop digging, I beg you…”

“Stop digging…”

“I don’t want you to save me anymore…”

“Just… stop digging…”

…

“Dig a few holes and plant the branches we cut.”

“It’s almost Arbor Day, it’ll be normal for young saplings to appear here. Others will think this is the result of some enthusiastic citizen.”

“With the cover of these branches, no one would think there’s a body buried underneath.”

“By the way, dig a few more holes without planting the branches. Make sure you take care of all the details. If someone comes over and finds that there are already planted saplings and traces of digging holes, it’s very easy for them to mistake it for insufficient saplings and leave to find more saplings.”

“We need to plant something in this bare wasteland. Let’s treat it as playing our part as kind citizens who love public welfare.”

“We’ll come back later on and see if there’s any problem.”

“Let’s use the name of Arbor Day. When the time comes, we’ll participate and call more people using the nature of this public welfare event. We can’t come along, we have to call students or people from the public welfare organizations.”

“If anything happens, we can come over and deal with the aftermath at any time.”

“Otherwise, if we come here to check on the situation, it’ll be easy for someone with ill intentions to discover the problem.”

The person called Second Brother rambled on. Although he looked calm, after burying the corpse, he was also under a lot of pressure.

At this moment, the person at the side was completely silent. He only followed his Second Brother’s instructions and quietly planted the branch carefully in the soil.

Perhaps this would be the only time he had put so much effort into planting a tree.

From time to time, he would swing the hoe down hard, digging a small pit about 10 centimeters in size. After doing that, he squatted down, picked up the branch that had been prepared, and planted it.

After he was done, he would gently touch the trunk to check the sturdiness of the sapling.

Then, he repeated his actions.

In one night, the two of them dug nearly a hundred small pits on this bare wasteland and planted dozens of saplings.

The strong howling wind at night blew against the saplings that had just been planted.

At this moment, he had long forgotten the fear of burying the corpse. After solving the most important matter, he calmed down.

Now, he only felt a little tired. Continuous digging and planting trees had consumed a lot of his stamina. At the same time, the focus on his expression had exhausted the fear in his heart.

The howling wind was no longer enough to scare him. The beads of sweat on his forehead began to make him yearn for a cooler breeze to blow away the heat in his body.

Of course, the most important thing was that at this point, even if a passerby suddenly jumped out and asked them what they were doing, he could give his reason with a clear conscience.

“Can’t you see we’re planting trees?”

“What’s wrong with planting trees in the middle of the night?”

“Should we be planting trees in broad daylight for show? Should we hire a few more reporters and get them to write a report?”

He had already thought of a suitable reason to deal with these questions.

Thinking of this, he swung the hoe even harder.

The wind blew harder across the wasteland, blowing sand and dust all over him.

However, he ignored it and continued to wave the hoe with all his might.

Xiang Ye had already calmed down.

It had been a month since the two men had dumped the bodies.

In this month, the two of them organized two tree planting activities.

As a result, the originally bare wasteland was already filled with saplings the size of an arm.

Moreover, the whole area had expanded more than ten times the place where they planted trees before.

Not only that, the two tree planting activities also made news, and a large number of reporters came. At the same time, the government also sent officials to inspect the area.

No one would know about the murder that took place here, and no one thought that there would be a female corpse underground.

When people talked about this wasteland, they could only praise this public welfare activity in newspapers and news.

All they could say was that these people who usually had nothing to do had finally done a good thing.

Soon, once the saplings had grown up, the area may become a park, or some other residential area that no one cares about.

Through his fixed field of vision, Xiang Ye could see the neatly arranged saplings on the ground.

Most of these saplings were willow trees, with some ginkgo trees scattered in the middle.

As for the reason behind planting these trees, he had clearly understood it from the public welfare personnel who were stepping on his head.

“The biggest advantage of willow as a shrub is that it’s easy to feed and has strong adaptability. And it’s very cheap. Besides a short growth period, it’s also suitable for both the south and the north.”

“As for ginkgo, it has a long lifespan and is resistant to cold. It also looks good when grown. The golden leaves in autumn can also bring great ornamental value to people, right?”

“Also…”

He had heard all these from the public welfare workers who planted the trees here. Dozens of people came and it was impossible for Xiang Ye not to listen to their chatter.

It was because of them that Xiang Ye knew exactly what kind of trees these were.

Of course, the pain these people brought to Xiang Ye when they dug the pit was still fresh in his memory.

Fortunately, the pain has already passed.

Occasionally, someone would come to water, loosen the soil, etc., but these were considered nothing.

Xiang Ye could feel that after experiencing a few painful tortures, his tolerance for pain had increased greatly.

As long as these people did not continue to touch him on a large scale, he was not afraid at all.

The saplings were well taken care of by these people. After all, there were reporters and officials inspecting it, and the people from the public welfare organization were not lazy.

In this month, many saplings had already come alive. Xiang Ye could feel in his body what the roots of the saplings were absorbing.

It was a strange feeling. As a wasteland, Xiang Ye could clearly feel the roots moving underground.

They were fighting desperately… quickly plundering…

If his judgment was correct, these roots were absorbing as much water and nutrition as possible.

Of course, there were still dead saplings.

The dead saplings were easy to identify. As long as one felt which branches were not absorbing nutrients, the saplings were dead.

The final outcome of the dead seedlings was to collapse and become nutrients for the other saplings.

Xiang Ye saw this very clearly.

He had originally thought of helping. After all, the scenery on the bare land was too monotonous, so he did not mind helping in order to add another scenery to his future life.

Unfortunately, Xiang Ye couldn’t even figure out his own situation, let alone help the dead saplings.

Therefore, he could only watch as the saplings gradually died.

In addition to the saplings planted on Xiang Ye, he could also observe the corpse left in his body by the two of them.

After a painful ordeal, the female corpse was here to stay forever in his body.

As time passes, the corpse would rot. The bacteria would disintegrate the flesh, and then only a pile of bones would be buried here forever.

In the end, her nutrition would be absorbed by the saplings planted on the ground and contribute to the growth of the saplings into towering trees.

This was Xiang Ye’s opinion. Moreover, in this month, things had indeed gone according to his script.

The cloth bag that had wrapped the female corpse had been decomposed by the bacteria in the soil. A boney calf was already visible from the damaged part of the bag.

When he first saw it, Xiang Ye was a little alarmed to see a portion of it exposed.

However, as time passed and he checked 24 hours a day, he slowly started getting used to it.

Wasn’t it just a corpse? What was there to be afraid of?

He was not even a person himself. Why would he be afraid of someone who was already dead?
