A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 1041: Killed by bandits again! (Please subscribe!)
"Cousin, it's hard to walk at night. You, a girl, can't stand it. Why don't you come with me and ride on the sedan chair?"

Although Awei was controlled by Hua Shier's soul-transferring technique, his love for Ren Tingting had not changed. Although he came out with a militia team of thirty people this time, he let his men follow behind him and he came over to please Ren Tingting.

Unfortunately, since Ren Tingting knew that the Taoist soldier with a bamboo hat beside Xu Baijiu was her grandfather, she found an excuse to pester Xu Baijiu and directly refused:

"Forget it, cousin. Grandpa is hopping around, how can I sit on the sedan chair by myself? I want to be closer to Grandpa. You should just sit on the sedan chair at the back!"

This made Awei very angry. Your grandfather is still jumping around. Did you know that your grandfather is a zombie? How else can he walk if not jumping around?
However, Ren Tingting used Old Master Ren as an excuse, and Ah Wei had no choice but to grit his teeth and say:

"Cousin, do you know where your great grandfather is buried?"

Ren Tingting: “.”

Hua Twelve, Uncle Jiu and Simu were walking in front. He had sharp ears and eyes, so he naturally heard the conversation at the back of the team. He burst out laughing. Ah Wei wanted to dig out Grandpa Ren Tingting to fight against Old Master Ren!

Uncle Jiu also heard the noise behind him. He turned around and looked at his apprentice Qiu Sheng, who wanted to show his affection to Ren Tingting but didn't know where to start because of A Wei and Xu Baijiu. He couldn't help but shook his head.

Turning back, I heard Simu shaking the bell and asking Hua Twelve:
"Brother Hua, you said before that you were going to visit my senior brother. I wonder if you went?"

Hearing this question, Uncle Jiu was also a little curious, because they all knew that their eldest senior brother had a bad temper, and he wondered what would happen if Hua Twelve went.

Hua Shier did not hide anything and told the whole story.

Uncle Jiu and Simu were both shocked. The former said, "You said you killed our senior brother Shi Jian?"

Simu also raised his eyebrows: "You also killed his apprentice and stole his secret book?"

Hua Shier spread his hands and said, "You two, it was Shi Jian who tried to steal my Three Yin Demon-Slaying Blade secret manual. He started it, so I couldn't just not fight back. I was actually helpless!"

Uncle Jiu and Simu both trembled and pointed at Hua Twelve: "You you you"

Hua Shier waved his hand and said, "I know that 'Lightning Thunder Fist' is your unique skill of Maoshan. How about I let each of you copy a copy later?"

Taoist Simu pondered and said, "Big Brother is a paranoid person with a perverse personality. I didn't expect that he would snatch the secret book from others. This is simply a discredit to my Maoshan Sect!"

Uncle Jiu nodded: "So, Brother Hua was fighting back in self-defense. If that's the case, there's nothing wrong with that. By the way, Brother Hua, if you don't understand something when you practice the Lightning Thunder Fist, we can discuss it with each other!"

Simu nodded: "Let's make progress together!"

Hua Twelve felt a little amused when he saw the performance of these two people, but he could also see that Shi Jian was probably not very popular among his fellow apprentices, otherwise Uncle Jiu and Simu would not have behaved so indifferently.

He remembered the episode with Shi Jian in the Uncle Jiu series of movies. There was a lot of tension between Uncle Jiu and Shi Jian. Even Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai did not respect Shi Jian very much. Shi Jian's son Shi Shaojian was also sarcastic towards Uncle Jiu and his disciples. It was obvious from this that the relationship between the two families was not good.

Jingle Bell!
Simu used the Soul-Guiding Bell to clear the way. Uncle Jiu looked at the sky and turned to greet everyone:

"Everyone hurry up, we must get to Jiuquan Town before dawn!"

When everyone heard Uncle Jiu's voice, they couldn't help but quicken their pace. Ren Tingting walked for a few miles and her feet were so sore that she got on the sedan chair. They finally traveled dozens of miles before dawn and arrived at Jiuquan Town.

Uncle Jiu led the way to the home of Mr. Liu, a wealthy businessman in the town.

Mr. Liu was over sixty years old. He owned a winery in Jiuquan Town, as well as teahouses, restaurants, and other businesses. He was considered quite wealthy. When he heard that Uncle Jiu had arrived, he hurried out to greet him:
"Uncle Jiu, you are finally here. Hey, why are there so many of you?"

Uncle Jiu explained the situation. When Mr. Liu heard that Uncle Jiu's junior fellow Taoist priest Simu was coming to drive the corpse over, his face looked a little ugly. But when he heard that there were more than 30 militiamen coming with them, his face looked much better.

Simu bowed his head and said, "Master Liu, if it's not too much trouble, could you help me arrange these goods? They can't be exposed to the sun!"

Mr. Liu was a little embarrassed. Uncle Jiu understood the psychology of ordinary people and waved his hand:
"Don't worry, Master Liu. I'll perform a ritual later to get rid of the bad luck here!"

Master Liu then nodded: "Then it all depends on Uncle Jiu!"

He immediately asked the butler to arrange a room for Simu's "goods" to use, and then arrange a room for everyone to rest.

By the time everyone settled down, the sky had turned pale.

In the afternoon, after everyone had rested, Mr. Liu told everyone the purpose of inviting Uncle Jiu over.

"Uncle Jiu, do you still remember the church in Jiuquan Town?"

Uncle Jiu recalled:
"Oh, you mean the church built on the spot where the three evil spirits are. Someone died in that church and all the foreign priests inside died. I was the one who performed a ritual for you and had it sealed up!"

Mr. Liu nodded and said, "Yes, yes, many people have disappeared in this town recently, causing panic among the people. I feel that this incident is related to this church, so I asked you to come and help!"

"A lot of people are missing?"

Uncle Jiu raised his eyebrows, realizing the seriousness of the problem, and asked quickly: "Master Liu, please tell me in detail, what is going on?"

Mr. Liu sighed:

"Originally, we followed your orders and closed the church. There has been no trouble for so many years. But a few days ago, a group of missionaries came and reopened the church. They also used various gifts to attract people to listen to their teachings and develop believers in the town!"

"Nothing happened at first, but then two priests died suddenly, and people have been disappearing since then!"

Taoist Simu frowned when he heard this: "My senior brother told you that it was an ominous place of the Three Evils. Why didn't you stop those missionaries from reopening the church?"

Speaking of this, Master Liu sighed repeatedly:

"How could we not stop it? But the year before last, our Jiuquan Town changed its mayor. The new mayor's son was a student at a foreign school and was also a believer. He persuaded the mayor to support those foreign missionaries. We couldn't stop it even if we wanted to!"

Ah Wei's eyes moved when he heard this, and he walked behind Hua Twelve and whispered in his ear: "Let's meet at the mayor's house to trade with the foreign devils!"

Hua Shier nodded. It seemed that the mayor's son was related to the foreigners' business. He was probably a comprador. He would be killed after being used by others.

After listening to what Master Liu said, Uncle Jiu nodded and said, "Is that so? Then I will go to the church later to see if there is any problem there. Master Liu, don't worry, since I am here, I will definitely help you solve the problem!"

Mr. Liu was filled with joy: "Thank you very much, Uncle Jiu. Don't worry, we know the rules. As long as you help solve the problem, we will definitely reward you generously!"

Uncle Jiu smiled and was polite, but he didn't say he didn't want money. It's true that Maoshan disciples subdue demons and monsters, but they also have to eat and support their families, so they still have to accept the payment. They can't work for nothing.

Mr. Liu asked someone to arrange a sumptuous banquet, and after the meal everyone suggested going for a walk around the town.

After leaving Mr. Liu's house, everyone went to the church first.

On the way to Jiuquan Town, Hua Twelve heard Simu tell him about Jiuquan Town. Simu told him that although Jiuquan Town was not as good as Renjia Town, it was prosperous because there were several wineries there. But now, there were few pedestrians on the street, and they were all in a hurry, rarely staying on the street. It seemed that something worrying had indeed happened in this town. Ren Tingting wanted to go shopping, but now she was not in the mood, so she followed everyone to the church.

When they arrived at the church, Ren Tingting introduced the rules of Catholicism to everyone:
"This is holy water in front of the door. You can dip your fingers in it, touch your forehead and shoulders, and then pray for God's blessing!"

Ah Wei quickly stepped forward and followed suit. Uncle Jiu and Simu both snorted in disdain:

"Can the foreign gods reach so far? Can they control the affairs of our Chinese land?"

Ren Tingting knew that the two were Taoist priests, but she didn't care. Instead, she asked Xu Baijiu, "Brother Xu, do you believe in religion?"

Xu Baijiu shook his head and said, "I am the disciple of Taoist Simu, so naturally I don't believe in foreign religions!"

At this moment, a voice came:
"The good thing about Chinese religion is that it guides people to be good, but the bad thing is that it leads people to superstition. Monks, Taoist priests, etc., are actually on the wrong path. Everyone, turn back!"

Following the sound, an old priest with a Mediterranean hairstyle walked out of the church and nodded slightly to the crowd.

Uncle Jiu and Simu both laughed in anger. The former snorted coldly, "It is a Buddhist saying to turn back and not turn back. How come you foreign missionaries have also read Buddhist scriptures?"

The old priest shook his head and laughed:
"You are wrong. This sentence is actually a copy of the meaning of the Bible by Buddhism. The original text should be 'We are all like lambs that have lost their way. Each of us has turned to his own way. The Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.' It means that God loves the world. He will bear the blame for your sins and guide you to the right path!"

Simu spat: "Bullshit!"

The old priest sniffed: "It stinks, it stinks!"

"You" Simu didn't know that he was tricked by the old priest. He was about to get angry, but was stopped by Uncle Jiu:

"Junior brother, please be more graceful and don't be outdone by the evil foreigners!"

Uncle Jiu turned to the priest and said, "We are not here to believe in religion. We heard that some people died and some people are missing here, so we came here to take a look!"

The old priest's face changed: "Are you from the government?"

Uncle Jiu shook his head and said, "No!"

"Then what are you looking at? No one is dead, and no one is missing. Let's go!"

The old priest changed his attitude instantly and turned around to call other priests to come out and chase the people away.

Uncle Jiu didn't want to have a conflict right now, so he winked at everyone and led them out of the church and into a teahouse not far away.

In the teahouse, Simu said with absolute certainty: "The evil energy in this church is gathering, there must be something wrong!"

Xu Baijiu also said: "I observed the priest's expression. When Master Uncle mentioned the dead and missing people, his eyes changed drastically. He must know something!"

Uncle Jiu nodded and said, "I think so too. At night, the negative energy of the Three Evils will erupt. If there are evil spirits in this church, they will definitely come out to cause trouble. We can come back at night to investigate!"

Awei looked at the time and whispered a few words to Hua Twelve.

Hua Twelve said to Uncle Jiu and Taoist Simu, "Uncle Jiu, Taoist Simu, we have a business to discuss this time. You guys sit down first. Awei and I will go visit the mayor of Jiuquan Town!"

Uncle Jiu and others nodded and let him do as he pleased.

Hua Shier and Awei asked someone about the location of the mayor's house, bought some gifts and visited him.

Arriving at the mayor's mansion, Ah Wei knocked on the door and gave his name. A young man in a suit and with a greasy head came out and extended his hand to Hua Twelve:

"You must be Captain Awei, I'm David, a good friend of Mr. William!"

This guy obviously thought Hua Twelve looked very impressive and mistook him for someone else.

Just as Ah Wei was about to reveal his identity, Hua Twelve waved his hand, then stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party: "Hello David, I am Ah Wei, the leader of the militia in Renjia Town!"

"Please come in quickly. Mr. William and his team arrived two days ago and have been waiting for a long time!"

Following David into the mayor's house, there was a small Western-style building in the yard. When I entered the living room, I saw a fat man in a mandarin jacket, nodding and talking to two white men in suits.

David came in and introduced enthusiastically: "Captain Awei, this is my father, the mayor of Jiuquan Town, and these two are representatives of the East India Company, Mr. William and Mr. Stryker!"

"William, and Stryker?"

Hua Twelve showed a meaningful smile and extended his hand: "Hello, both of you!"

Those two foreign devils had no intention of reaching out:
"Are you that Awei? Please explain Wilson's matter. Why did he die in Renjia Town? Why didn't you protect his safety?"

Hua Twelve's smile faded: "Are you stupid? If it's safe, why do we need weapons?"

The two foreigners were stunned: "What does sand dollar mean?" Although they didn't understand what "shabi" meant, from Hua Twelve's expression and tone, they could tell that it was not a word of praise!

"It means stupid pig, idiot, retard, idiot, stupid pig. I think you are not only idiots, but also big fools. Just hearing your name makes people hate you!"

After Hua Shier finished speaking, he translated it again in fluent English.

After hearing this, the two foreigners became furious and immediately asked for their guns!
Hua Twelve went up and kicked each man and the chair, sending them flying, hitting the wall and nearly killing them.

This was because Hua Shier had not yet obtained the arms, so he held back his strength, otherwise he would have been kicked into a pulp!
David and the mayor were startled. Just as they were about to speak, Hua Twelve had already thrust a pistol into the former's mouth:
"Don't talk, or I'll beat you to death!"

He turned to A Wei and said, "Go ask where their weapons and longevity cream are?"

A Wei went up to interrogate them. At first, the two foreigners seemed to be unwilling to surrender. A Wei turned around and gave Hua Twelve a bitter smile, and made a helpless gesture of extending his hand, meaning that if they didn't tell him, what should I do?
Hua Twelve was so angry that he laughed: "Are you also an idiot? If they don't tell you, just beat them up. Aren't there two of them? Kill one first and see if the other one is scared!"

The two foreigners understood this sentence. No one wanted to be the first to be killed, so without Awei's questioning, they all rushed to say that the arms were delivered this morning and were placed in the backyard of the church, and someone would deliver the longevity cream in the evening.

Hua Shier spread his hands and said, "Look, it's over now!"

After saying that, he walked over and stepped on them twice, just like crushing ants, and killed the two foreigners on the spot!

After stepping on the foreign devils, Hua Shier turned to Awei and said, "Go back and contact the East India Company and tell them that William and Stryker were killed by horse bandits again. Ask them to transport some more arms, otherwise we can't guarantee their safety!"
