Upon hearing this, Jiale and Jingjing recalled the miraculous medical skills of this person.

Then Jiale immediately realized something and quickly said:
"Yes, Senior Cheng Xiao, one of my martial uncles is injured. I wonder if you could help treat him?"

Cheng Xiao was stunned: "Where is Master Ikkyu?"

"Isn't he also a master of traditional Chinese medicine?"

Jingjing shook her head:

“My master has already examined it and tried several medicines, but he was also helpless. He said that we can only wait for the corpse poison to subside slowly.”

"Fortunately, Jia Le's uncle was highly skilled, otherwise he would have turned into a zombie by now."

I heard Jiale and Jingjing say these few words.

Xiao Honglu and Cheng Xiao felt a strong sense of unease.

Master uncle?

High level of cultivation?

Corpse poison?

Zombies?

The two narrowed their eyes and then looked at each other.

Yes, it has the feel of a side quest.

They anticipated that this mummy-like world would have no shortage of side stories.

But to my surprise, there were so many.

This is only the first day.

It was delivered to my door before it even got dark?

Xiao Honglu reacted quickly.

Something immediately came to mind:
"Wait a minute, Jia Le's martial uncle is from the vicinity of Renjia Town. He has profound cultivation. Could the injured man you mentioned be Uncle Nine?"

Jia Le nodded his head quickly, like a chick pecking at rice.
"Yes, yes, Uncle Jiu, my cousin's master is also called Master Lin Jiu."

"The people of Renjiazhuang call him Uncle Jiu, and he has a very high reputation in this area."

Upon hearing this name, both Cheng Xiao and Xiao Honglu were startled.

Because this person really doesn't know how to recite.

Cheng Xiao asked, "Corpse poison?"
So, a zombie attacked him? Was it Old Master Ren?

Cheng Xiao's words left Jiale and Jingjing completely confused.

Jiale: "What, Old Master Ren?"

"Jingjing, isn't the patriarch of the Ren family in good health now?"

Cheng Xiao and Xiao Honglu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. It seemed that this was not part of the plot, which meant that the Dragonfly Touching Water acupoint was still intact.

That's the time.

A shout came from behind Jiale and Jingjing.

"Cousin, cousin!"

"Phew, you two are pretty fast, I can't keep up with you."

"Cousin, we were enjoying the show, why did you leave with your wife?"

Looking at the replica of "Jiale," panting heavily, covered in sweat, so exhausted that he swayed his head every three steps and twisted his waist every five.

Xiao Honglu and the other three were stunned and stared back and forth between the two.

Let alone cousins, even biological brothers who look like this would be mistaken for twins.

If you change your clothes and style your hair the same, even Jingjing would probably have to admit it's a mistake.

Because the young man who chased after them from behind, who called Jia Le "Cousin," looked exactly like Jia Le.

It's like looking in a mirror.

If there's anything different, besides hairstyle and clothes, it's just their overall demeanor.

"Qiusheng, let's watch the show!"

Your uncle's hand isn't even healed yet, and you're still in the mood to watch a show.

"If you hadn't been bewitched and flirted with the female ghost, how could your martial uncle have been poisoned by the corpse poison!"

Seeing his dejected cousin, Jiale was furious.

Now he finally understands how Master Four Eyes looked at him back then.

That's truly a case of being disappointed in someone who isn't living up to their potential.

Saying he's good for nothing is an understatement.

Qiu Sheng has no manners when standing or sitting.

He's still physically weak; you could only say he's still a human being.

Qiu Sheng pushed his cousin Jia Le aside and looked ahead:

"Hey, this kid? Cousin, you can't be serious, you and your wife have only been married for less than six months."

"You actually took it all as... Oh... Pfft..."

Seeing the parabola in the air, Jia Le's expression turned serious: "No, Brother Cheng, Senior Cheng, please be gentle!!!"

"puff………"

When the experience from half an hour ago repeated itself, Cheng Xiao finally couldn't take it anymore.

To everyone's surprise, the tiny, baby-like body jumped out of Yue'er's arms.

A graceful turn in mid-air.

A tiny foot, no bigger than a thumb, appeared on the right side of Qiu Sheng's face.

next moment.

Before Qiu Sheng could even scream, he was sent flying backward.

However, this startled Jia Le.

Fortunately, their meeting place is now on the edge of Zhuang Town.

Qiu Sheng flew more than ten meters and landed right in the soft soil.

Of course, the 100% farmyard manure that was just buried in the soil is a bit too fresh.

Looking at the exaggerated arc in the air.

Jiale was genuinely afraid that Senior Cheng Xiao's light kick might accidentally kill his cousin.

When Jiale helped Qiusheng up.

"Weakness in the lower back and knees, unsteady gait, pale complexion, loss of essence and deficiency of qi, all signs of kidney deficiency."

"I originally thought that Master Four Eyes' disciple was already quite incompetent."

"I didn't expect that Uncle Nine's apprentice would be even worse."

After saying that, Cheng Xiao jumped onto Jia Le's shoulder and patted the top of his head.

He said meaningfully:
"Jiale, I wronged you before."

Even though he was being comforted, Jiale still felt like he had been offended.

"Hehe, you're joking, senior."

Qiu Sheng was, after all, a disciple and grand-disciple of Taoism.

After hearing what his cousin and Jingjing said, he also became serious.

They became respectful to both Xiao Honglu and Cheng Xiao.

Of course, the reason is probably 99% that this person can't beat him.

Another thing is that Qiu Sheng's gaze towards Cheng Xiao was extremely strange.

After all, Cheng Xiao's appearance is now no different from that of a real baby.

But it is precisely this appearance that reveals an old-fashioned style.

"Qiusheng greets the two seniors."

"I hope that the two seniors can heal my master."

Qiu Sheng isn't stupid; in this world, anyone dressed in unusual clothes must have corresponding strength.

Not to mention this kind.

Qiu Sheng's strengths, while lacking in other areas, far surpass Jia Le's in insight.

The short walk from town to the mortuary was filled with joy as she kept calling Xin'er and Yue'er "sister."

There must be a reason why this female ghost repeatedly provokes her in the story.

The sun is shining brightly and the wind is gentle.

"This is the famous mortuary?"

Cheng Xiao sat on Jia Le's shoulders and asked.

Hear this.

Jiale and Jingjing were both momentarily dazed, because after hearing this sentence, they both remembered something.

The memories of their deaths awakened simultaneously.

If I remember correctly.

A year and a half ago.

When I first met these seniors, they seemed to have asked me about things like the mortuary and Uncle Nine.

However, the two did not expect that the mortuary their senior had mentioned was the mortuary right in front of them.
The eerie and sinister mortuary depicted in horror movies is now a reality for Xiao Honglu and his companions.

It was just a dilapidated gatehouse.

Even the fence next to the gate creaks and groans incessantly in the wind because of its age and disrepair.

The compacted ground is now covered with loose soil, looking like it hasn't been cleaned in a long time.

Several unclaimed coffins were placed inside the mortuary.

Some of the coffin lids were ajar or half-open, and the coffins were often covered with talismans such as "Get Rich Upon Seeing Them" which looked rather messy.

But think about it.

In the story, Uncle Nine and his two apprentices lived a very hard and simple life.

They were only slightly better off than beggars on the street, not even as good as monks in temples. Otherwise, Wencai and Qiusheng, two very intelligent people in the story, wouldn't have been so poor that they had to resort to spending ghost money.

It's easy to imagine how difficult their lives were.

No one would think of spending ghost money unless they were desperate for money.

Gee tut.

As the saying goes, comparing goods will only lead to disappointment, and comparing people will only lead to heartbreak.

This contrast.

Jia Le, dressed in patched clothes, is unsurprisingly the one standing at the top of the pyramid.

Moreover, Jia Le doesn't like female ghosts; he prefers normal women, and he's already married.

It's simply excellent.

Thinking of this, Cheng Xiao patted Jia Le beside him again.

This person instantly understood what it meant.

He nodded with a happy expression.

A year and a half ago.

His first encounter with his Uncle-Master Chizuru's four disciples was a nightmare that continues to this day.

Whether it's cultivation level, appearance, clothing, or the money in one's pocket.

Even in terms of righteousness, he was lacking in everything, and the four of them felt ashamed of themselves when they called themselves his senior brothers.

but now.

Compared to my cousin.

Please!

I'm just too amazing!

They can all be recognized as outstanding young people.

"Ouch, it hurts!"

Perhaps it was because it overheard someone's smug and self-satisfied thoughts.

Jingjing grabbed the soft flesh and twisted it skillfully.

Jiale looked at the two bruises that quickly appeared on his arm, and the pain made him jump forward.

He pursed his lips and began to inhale sharply.

Seeing this, Jingjing snorted:
"Let you show off."

Turning her head, Jingjing smiled broadly:
"Seniors, I'll go and call my master and the Taoist priest."

After saying that, he glared at Jia Le with annoyance before running inside.

As soon as she entered the house, Jingjing changed her appearance.

The loud voice shouted all the way:

"Master, Taoist priest, we have distinguished guests! Please receive them!"

That's the time.

Qiu Sheng, who had been limping and following behind the group, finally walked in.

Cheng Xiao turned his head and looked over.

Having learned his lesson, Qiu Sheng quickly and respectfully cupped his hands in greeting.

"senior."

Cheng Xiao nodded in satisfaction and flicked his chubby little hand.

Two pale golden flames flew out.

One flower landed on Jiale, whose finger marks had just been pinched by Jingjing, and another landed on Qiusheng.

As the flames disappeared, the two instinctively closed their eyes and let out a comfortable shiver.

I felt a warm current coursing through my body.

Jiale stared in disbelief as his arm, which had been bruised and purple just moments before, instantly returned to normal.

After Qiu Sheng moved his intact limbs, he simply collapsed with a thud.

He actually knelt down.

What shocked everyone was that after kneeling down, he immediately raised both hands high:

"Master, please bow to me, my disciple."

He then prepared to kowtow.

Because Cheng Xiao was sitting on Jia Le's shoulders.

Therefore, Qiu Sheng is also a bachelor.

He knelt directly in front of Jia Le.

And then I saw this scene.

As if by reflex, Jia Le ran out and kicked.

He delivered a powerful, full-force kick to his cousin's serious face.

no way.

Back then, when he saw Li Xiao make a dashing entrance with his flying sword at the pool, he wanted to kneel down immediately, but he hesitated because he was too shy.

I never expected my cousin, who had experienced the same situation, to be so decisive.

Jiale believed that if he couldn't have it, neither could his cousin.

The power in his feet increased again.

Qiu Sheng let out another "ouch" sound.

It flew out again.

This time, Qiu Sheng also didn't have time to speak.

But that's not all.

Just as Jia Le kicked Qiu Sheng to the highest point.

A figure with a sling rushed out of the mortuary at great speed, passing by them before giving chase.

Then he leaped up and kicked out again in mid-air.

It's clear that this kick was much harder than Jia Le's.

Because Xiao Honglu and the others could see it clearly.

The instant the other person's instep made full contact with Qiu Sheng's buttocks.

So much so that the thicker parts of the flesh rippled like waves.

Meanwhile, Master Four Eyes appeared beside Jiale without anyone noticing.

Looking at the master and disciple who were locked in a love-hate relationship not far away.

Patting the other shoulder with satisfaction, he said:
"Good apprentice, not bad, not bad."

"Since you came to my place, I've found you more and more pleasing to the eye."

"Truly worthy of being my good disciple."

Hearing his master's heartfelt words, Jiale's eyes also filled with tears.

The master and apprentice gazed at each other with deep affection.

"Master, me too!"

As they spoke, Simu and Jiale embraced each other, deeply moved.

Seeing this, Jingjing clenched her fists again.

The figure who had kicked Qiu Sheng out of the mortuary coughed twice at that moment.

Jiale then remembered something.

Get back to normal as soon as possible and provide updates immediately.

"By the way, Uncle-Master Lin Jiu."

These two are the ones my master and Master Ikkyu mentioned before. This is Senior Xiao, and this is Senior Cheng.

"One of you is skilled in formations, and the other is skilled in healing."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Nine looked intently at Xiao Honglu and Cheng Xiao.

Uncle Jiu's eyebrows twitched when he saw Xiao Honglu, who had rosy lips and white teeth and was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

When he saw the baby Cheng Xiao, his eyebrows furrowed even more.

His past experience told him that, no matter how you looked at it, these two shouldn't be human.

Aside from people, the rest are all bad news.

Is it a demon? Or a monster?

Is it a ghost? Or a monster?
Four Eyes and One Retreat have been living in the mortuary for half a month.

Lin Jiu, also known as Uncle Jiu, has almost gone deaf from what Master Si Mu and Master Yi Xiu have been saying.

If it weren't for the fact that these two people spoke so convincingly, and that they were so skilled, plus the corroboration from Jia Le and Jing Jing, it would have been a different story.

Lin Jiu had already performed rituals to exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts for the two of them.

After all, the grand scene they described was rather exaggerated.

And it was just as Uncle Nine was sizing up Xiao Honglu and the others.

Xiao Honglu and Cheng Xiao were also sizing up this "absolute protagonist".

It's no exaggeration to say that Uncle Nine is the chosen one of this world.

This middle-aged man, whom Jiale called his senior uncle, looked a little older than Simu Dao, but not by much.

Moreover, this person has a resilient face with clearly defined facial features.

His cheekbones were high, his nose was prominent, and his eyes were extremely sharp, as if they had a penetrating power.

However, if I had to pinpoint the most memorable first impression, it would definitely be the distinctive unibrow.

Uncle Nine was wearing a slightly worn yellow Taoist robe.

Despite having one arm wrapped in bandages and in a sling, his posture was ramrod straight, and he exuded an inexplicable air of authority upon landing. (End of Chapter)
