Ninth Uncle looked at Xiao Ming meaningfully and asked with a smile,""Young man, I am very curious. Why did you come to the mortuary so late at night? Also, your clothes are very different from ours, and your skills are not bad. What are you doing here? Don't tell me you just happened to pass by. I don't believe you.”
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai immediately surrounded Xiao Ming before he could explain, as if they were afraid that he would run away.
"Kid, tell me honestly what you are doing here in the middle of the night.”Qiu Sheng smiled at me evilly.
"Yes…yes, tell me honestly, why are you here?”Wen Cai looked at me with a lack of confidence and said,"Even though…even though you saved us just now, you definitely don't have any good intentions by sneaking into the mortuary in the middle of the night.”
"Bad intentions?"
Xiao Ming grinned at Wen Cai and said,"If I had bad intentions, do you think I would have saved you? If I didn't have good intentions, do you think I would have stayed here when I saw Ninth Uncle and Daoist Priest Four-Eyed come out? If I didn't have good intentions, I had enough time to escape just now. Why didn't I leave? Doesn't this explain everything?”
Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng were speechless. They looked at each other and didn't know what to say.
"Young man, your eloquence is indeed very good.”Ninth Uncle smiled at Xiao Ming and said,""But don't change the topic. You still haven't answered my question. Why did you appear at the mortuary?”
Xiao Ming looked at Ninth Uncle's dignified expression. He knew that if he didn't give a reasonable reason, he would definitely be in trouble. Ninth Uncle was swift and decisive. If he kept covering up, Ninth Uncle would definitely make a move on him.
After some consideration, Xiao Ming decided to lie. He had no choice! If he told Ninth Uncle honestly that this space was just a virtual space in a movie and that he had transmigrated here by chance, Ninth Uncle would probably think that Xiao Ming was crazy and kill him. Therefore, he could only make up a lie to deceive them.
"Hey!"
Xiao Ming let out a long sigh, then pretended to be extremely sad and said pitifully,"Ninth Uncle, since you've already said so much, then I have nothing to hide. My name is Xiao Ming, and I come from a very, very distant place. Although that place is very prosperous and rich, and there are also many cultivators, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in that area is very thin, which led to the conflict between sects. Although the Seven Stars Sect that I belong to is a large sect, it can't withstand the joint attack of countless small sects.”
Xiao Ming secretly observed the expressions of Ninth Uncle and the others. Seeing that they were listening so seriously, he immediately said,"As the saying goes, a hero can't fight against four hands, and a good tiger can't fight against a pack of wolves. In the end, our Seven Stars sect was destroyed in an intense battle, and in order to avoid the pursuit of my enemies, I escaped all the way here after a bitter and bloody battle. After arriving here, I heard about Ninth Uncle's great name. He's an upright person who doesn't fear power. He helps the weak and kills demons. He can be said to be an upright person, so…"
"So you came here in the middle of the night?”Ninth Uncle smiled faintly.
Xiao Ming looked at Ninth Uncle's faint smile and couldn't help but feel happy. He could see from Ninth Uncle's expression that he was really satisfied with the flattery. Ninth Uncle's attitude towards him had obviously changed. From the serious expression before to the faint smile now. Although there wasn't much difference, Xiao Ming could clearly feel that Ninth Uncle was no longer on guard against him.
"Ninth Uncle."
Xiao Ming struck while the iron was hot and said sincerely,"Ever since I came here and heard about your deeds, I decided to take you as my master. I hope that you can accept me as your disciple. Although my cultivation isn't very high, my aptitude is definitely not bad.”
"Master?"
Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng exclaimed in unison.
Xiao Ming glanced at them and smiled. He said with a flattering expression,"Don't you two want a junior brother? Wencai, especially you. Think about it. If you have a junior brother, there are many things you don't have to do anymore. You just have to give orders to your junior brother.”
Wen Cai's eyes lit up when he heard this. It was obvious that Xiao Ming's condition was tempting. He walked up to Ninth Uncle and grinned,"Master, you and I have been taking care of this big mortuary. Not only are we tired to death every day, but we also can't take care of it well. Look at Xiao Ming, he's good and smart.”
Without waiting for Ninth Uncle to speak, Qiu Sheng jumped over and gave Wen Cai a tight slap. Wen Cai grimaced and said unhappily,"Qiusheng, you…you…why did you hit me?”
"Why did I hit you?"
Qiu Sheng touched Wen Cai's forehead with his hand and said with a disappointed expression,""Wencai, oh Wencai, are you a pig head? Why don't you use your brain and think about it? Xiao Ming said that he was chased all the way here. It's not like you haven't seen his skills. If he was able to chase him away, then it's obvious that he wasn't alone. Even if he was alone, he's definitely a ruthless person. If we leave him in the mortuary, we're simply inviting fire on ourselves.”
When Wen Cai heard Qiu Sheng's words, he immediately sucked in a breath of cold air and his face turned pale. This guy was originally a timid person. Now that he was frightened by Qiu Sheng, his tone changed. He nodded repeatedly and said,"Qiusheng is right. Why didn't I think of this? It's really not worth it if the enemy comes to find us. Master, you have to consider whether to accept us or not.”
Xiao Ming looked at Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai's reactions and couldn't help but shake his head with a smile,""Qiusheng, you can't do this to me, can you? Although I was chased all the way here, I've long shaken off my enemies, so you can rest assured that no one will come looking for me. If my enemies come knocking on my door, I'll take responsibility for what I did. I definitely won't implicate everyone.”
"You make it sound so easy." Qiu Sheng flicked the hair on his forehead and said with a serious face,""We took you in. Even if you take the initiative to cut ties with us, do you think your enemies will let us go? So…"
Xiao Ming frowned and looked at Qiu Sheng unhappily,""So what?"
Qiu Sheng yawned and said,"That's why you shouldn't worship this master."”
