In front of the resurrected corpse, the elder personally investigated, confirmed it was the kind of resurrection akin to zombies, then sniffed the air around him. He turned and summoned a palace maid to inquire, "Is this scent commonly used in the lady's residence?"
The palace maid shook her head decisively and said, "No, I've never smelled this fragrance before."
The elder's gaze again fell on the struggling corpse being held down, and he came to a direct judgment, muttering, "Death Refusing Incense..."
He turned back and said to someone beside him, "Go find a pharmacist to confirm the scent."

The elder asked him, "Are you sure that the previous bag contained a dog's soul?"
