The pitch-black night, coupled with the terrifying atmosphere of the Spirit Rock Mountain, was really not something that ordinary people could withstand. Xiao Ming and the other three walked on the rugged mountain road. It could be said that they were quite careful and cautious because they did not know when the enemy would launch a sneak attack. Therefore, they were all 120 times more alert.
It was unknown whether it was because Xiao Ming and the others had been too brave in their battle just now that they had intimidated the small fries, or because there were no more enemies in the darkness. Until they left the Spirit Rock Mountain, no other forces had come to ambush them.
After walking out of the Spirit Rock Mountain, Wen Cai looked at the terrifying mountain behind him and swallowed his saliva."Oh my god! He had finally walked out. Uncle-Master wouldn't be in danger again, right?”
Daoist Priest Four-Eyed pursed his lips and said,""How would I know about this? Anyway, just remember one thing. If you don't see your master at the mortuary, you won't be safe.”
"Really?" Wen Cai swallowed his saliva again and said with a trembling voice,"In that case, we should hurry back in case we encounter danger.”
Xiao Ming looked at Wen Cai's terrified expression and immediately smiled,"Look at you, what are you afraid of with Martial Uncle around? "Didn't you see that Uncle-Master defeated the experts of Zixia Palace? So, don't worry. If you encounter some enemies on the way, they will definitely be useless to Uncle-Master.”
"Stop flattering me." Daoist Priest Four-Eyed grinned and said," Although I'm very powerful, there's always someone better than me. It's better for us to be careful."”After saying that, he brought Xiao Ming and the others to the mortuary.
They didn't speak a word on the way back to the mortuary. When they entered the mortuary, they saw Ninth Uncle sitting in the courtyard and smoking. This scene made Daoist Priest Four-Eyed very unhappy. He sat down beside Ninth Uncle and said while panting,"Senior Brother, you are really too mean. We worked so hard to get the treasure, but you are leisurely smoking here.”
Hearing this, Ninth Uncle immediately put down his pipe and said with an imposing manner,""You said I'm leisurely? You really have the nerve to say that. If it wasn't for me helping you in secret, do you think your journey would have been smooth sailing?”
When Daoist Priest Four-Eyed heard Ninth Uncle's words, the displeasure on his face immediately disappeared. He then smiled and said,"I was still wondering how I could return so smoothly. So it turns out that Senior Brother secretly helped.”
Ninth Uncle snorted and turned to look at Xiao Ming and Qiu Sheng.""The three of you performed well tonight. When your martial uncle refines the treasures, I'll give each of you one.”As he spoke, he pointed at Xiao Ming and said,"Take off your dragon pattern bracelet and show it to me."”
When Xiao Ming and the others heard Uncle Nine mention the dragon bracelet, they were shocked and said in unison,"How did you know about the dragon bracelet?”
Ninth Uncle looked at the four of them with their mouths agape and said seriously,"Didn't I tell you just now? I've been following you in the dark, so it's not strange that I know about the dragon pattern bracelet. Lil 'Ming, hurry up and let me see the dragon pattern bracelet. What's so magical about this item that even the disciples of Zixia Palace have their eyes on it?”
Xiao Ming glanced at Ninth Uncle. To be honest, he really didn't want to take it off because this bracelet was the only treasure he had in the real world. What if Ninth Uncle refused to give it to him?
Ninth Uncle saw that Xiao Ming's expression was a little off and smiled,""What's wrong? Could it be that you're afraid that Martial Uncle will keep your treasure?”
"No, no." Xiao Ming steeled his heart and took the dragon pattern bracelet off his wrist. He handed it to Ninth Uncle and said,"This is a small item that my master gave me when I graduated. He said that it was forged from some kind of meteorite.”
Ninth Uncle took the bracelet and studied it carefully. He found that it was just a small thing made of special materials as Xiao Ming had said. There was nothing special about it. He immediately returned the bracelet to Xiao Ming and said with a frown,"It's really strange that such an ordinary item would actually catch the attention of a Zixia Palace disciple. It's really hard to figure it out.”
"If you can't figure it out, then don't." Daoist Priest Four-Eyed yawned and blinked at Ninth Uncle.""We've been busy all night. Isn't it time for us to rest?”
Ninth Uncle glanced at Daoist Priest Four-Eyed and immediately understood what he meant. He nodded and said to Xiao Ming and the other two,"Go and rest. We still have things to do tomorrow.”
"Alright." Qiu Sheng answered directly and said with a smile,""Master, I'll be leaving first."
"It's already so late and you're still going back?"
Qiu Sheng sighed." I have no choice. I'm helping my aunt look after the shop tomorrow, so I can only go back to sleep."”After saying that, he bid farewell to Xiao Ming and the others before leaving the mortuary.
After Qiu Sheng left, Xiao Ming and Wen Cai went back to their rooms obediently. After lying down for a while, they fell into a deep sleep and started snoring like dead pigs…
The next morning, Xiao Ming and Wen Cai were still asleep when they were woken up by Ninth Uncle. After washing up, Xiao Ming realized that Daoist Priest Four-Eyed was gone. He knew that Daoist Priest Four-Eyed must have gone out to see their customers off.
At this moment, Xiao Ming knew that if things were to go according to the normal plot in the movie, Ninth Uncle would bring Wencai to drink some foreign tea and then talk to Old Master Ren about the burial. However, all of this was not important to Xiao Ming because he was thinking about Old Master Ren's daughter, Ren Tingting.
Just as Xiao Ming was smiling evilly, Ninth Uncle came out of his room in bright clothes. He glanced at Wen Cai, who was cleaning up the courtyard, and said,"Wencai, there's no need to pack your things.”
Xiao Ming saw that Ninth Uncle only called Wencai and didn't call him. He was unhappy because if he didn't go to the western restaurant, he wouldn't be able to see Ren Tingting. He quickly said,"Master, aren't you bringing me along when you and Wencai go to drink foreign tea? Are you going to leave me here alone?”
Ninth Uncle was a little surprised when he heard Xiao Ming's words,""Brat, how did you know that my master was going to a western restaurant to drink foreign tea?”
