Soon, it was seven o'clock in the morning. Suddenly, a bespectacled Taoist priest appeared on the country road outside the small courtyard. He was wearing a Taoist robe, carrying a peach wood sword on his back, and holding a shrine. The shrine was covered with talisman papers and hung with many bells.
There was a row of about fifteen people behind the Taoist priest. They were dressed in Qing Dynasty official robes and had flower feathers on their heads. There was a yellow talisman on their foreheads. They looked exactly like zombies in horror movies.
However, Chen Yu knew that this wasn't considered a zombie. Instead, it was an ordinary undead that could listen to the corpse herder's commands after being dealt with by the corpse herder using Daoist techniques. If it wasn't handled properly, it might turn into a zombie.
"You brat, who are you? Why are you in my courtyard?"
This Daoist priest saw Chen Yu from afar. He led the group of undeads into the courtyard and said to Chen Yu, who was standing in the middle of the courtyard and watching the show.
"Daoist Priest, I came with Master Ikxiu.”
Chen Yu explained.
Yesterday, Master Ikxiu had already introduced Chen Yu and Qingqing to each other. It turned out that they had another neighbor in this courtyard. That was Jiale's master, Daoist Priest Four-Eyed.
Chen Yu already knew which movie he was currently in. Fortunately, his luck wasn't bad. It was the very classic Zombie Uncle that all the people born in the 1980s, 1990s, and even the 1900s were familiar with.
"Master Yixiu? That old monk is back?"
Daoist Priest Four-Eyed said thoughtfully after hearing Chen Yu's words.
Afterwards, he ignored Chen Yu and went to knock on the door of the neighboring house. However, seeing that Jia Le didn't open the door no matter how many times he knocked, Daoist Priest Si Mu directly used his hands to pass through the paper window and open the door. When he opened the door, he saw that Jia Le was sleeping on a recliner in the living room.
"I asked you to guard the door, and you're dreaming about the Duke of Zhou?”
Taoist Priest Four-Eyed said angrily. Then, he thought of an idea to punish his disciple Jia Le. He closed the door again and went out to find a pile of bamboo sticks under the eaves. He gave these bamboo sticks to the undeads and used the password "Aiya". As long as the person shouted "Aiya", he would be beaten up by the undeads.
However, instead of punishing his disciple, he accidentally shouted out the word "Aiya" and was beaten up by the undeads. He screamed in the room.
Not to mention, the funny Daoist Priest Four-Eyed and Jia Le.
At this moment, Master Ikyo and Qingqing had already woken up and come out of their rooms after washing up.
"Big Brother Chen Yu, you woke up so early!”
Qingqing asked when she saw Chen Yu standing in the courtyard.
Because Chen Yu was older than Qingqing, Master Ikxiu had Qingqing address him as Big Brother.
"It's getting late. The sun is already out.”
Hearing Qingqing's words, Chen Yu smiled.
"Chen Yu, I'm going to bring Qingqing around for a walk. Do you want to come?”
Master Ikxiu said with a smile.
"Alright!"
Chen Yu agreed. In any case, he had just finished practicing his boxing and was currently in high spirits. It was just nice for him to walk around with Master Ikxiu.
Soon after, the three of them left the small courtyard and walked around it. As they walked, Master Ikxiu introduced the place to Qingqing and Chen Yu.
Following Master Yixiu's introduction, Chen Yu discovered that the small courtyard that Master Yixiu and Daoist Priest Four-Eyed lived in was located in the wilderness. It was estimated that they would have to walk several dozen kilometers before they could find a inhabited village.
With so few people around, it was no wonder that there were so many ghosts and monsters in the surroundings. In addition, the spiritual energy contained in this world was much denser than the real world. Cultivating here was much faster than cultivating in the real world. Moreover, the forest was a place with dense spiritual energy to begin with. It wasn't surprising that Chen Yu had encountered so many ghosts and monsters the night before.
Who asked Chen Yu to appear in the middle of the night? If it were during the day, with the sun shining everywhere and abundant morality, these ghosts wouldn't dare to appear rashly.
Chen Yu didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that there wasn't the slightest bit of demonic aura around the small courtyard they were staying in. It was probably because these ghosts knew that Daoist Priest Four-Eyed and Master One-Rest were in this small courtyard, so they didn't dare to appear around it.
"Master, Qingqing, Big Brother Chen, I'm making breakfast. Let's eat together!”
When Chen Yu and the others returned to the small courtyard, Jia Le ran out of the kitchen and greeted them warmly.
"That would be embarrassing."
Even though he said that he was up to no good, Master Ikxiu had already led the way and stepped into Daoist Priest Four-Eyed's house.
"It's okay. I've done a lot anyway."
Jia Le said enthusiastically.
"Alright then! Oh right, Jiale, I heard your master screaming in the morning. Is he alright?”
" Alright," Master Ikxiu agreed before asking curiously.
"It's fine, Master. Master said he wasn't feeling well and was resting in his room.”
Jia Le said.
However, at this moment, the door opened and Daoist Priest Si Mu walked out with a gloomy face.
"Didn't Jiale say you weren't feeling well?”
Master Ikxiu asked curiously.
"Can't you eat breakfast if you're not feeling well?”
Daoist Priest Four-Eyed said angrily.
"Oh, I can eat, I can eat."
Master Ikxiu said helplessly.
"Master, Master, Qingqing, Big Brother Chen, wait a moment. I'll go get breakfast.”
Seeing that Daoist Priest Four-Eyed and Master Ikxiu, the two old brats, had not seen each other for a few years and were already arguing with each other, Jia Le immediately said.
"Qingqing, you go and help too!"
Then, Master Ikxiu said.
Since Chen Yu had an injury on his back and wasn't his disciple, it wouldn't be good for him to call Chen Yu along.
"I'll go too!"
Fortunately, Chen Yu, who had watched a movie before, knew that these two old fellows were going to fight. He was afraid that he would be implicated if he stayed here, so he took the initiative to speak. After that, he left the kitchen with Jiale and Qingqing to help out.
Sure enough, when Chen Yu, Qingqing, and Jia Le entered the room with breakfast, the table in the room had already been smashed by the two of them. Fortunately, Jia Le had the foresight to move a new table over.
"Taoist priest, I wonder if you have cinnabar, yellow paper, and a brush. I want some.”
In order to prevent the two from fighting again, Chen Yu immediately said after seeing them sit down again.
The talisman papers on his body had already been used up in the great battle the night before. At this moment, he had to find cinnabar, yellow paper, and a brush to replenish the talisman papers.
Moreover, he needed the Purple Thunder Talisman to continue practicing the Thundering Fist Technique.
If he really couldn't find it, he could use the exchange points to exchange from the system store. However, the exchange points were very precious. The last time he completed a mission, the system only rewarded him with 50 exchange points. Naturally, he would save as much as he could.
"Of course, Big Brother Chen. If you want it, I'll give it to you later…”
Hearing Chen Yu's words, Jia Le, who was beside him, said enthusiastically.
"Jiale!"
"Young man, your name is Chen Yu, right? Look at how we live in the wilderness here. When I purchase cinnabar, yellow paper, and writing brushes, I go to Yellow Dragon Town, which is a hundred miles away. Although cinnabar, yellow paper, and writing brushes aren't worth much, I can't give them to you for free, can I?”
Daoist Priest Four-Eyed berated his disciple, Jia Le, before speaking to Chen Yu.
During the battle with Master Ixiu earlier, he already knew that Chen Yu was only someone that Master Ixiu had saved and not Master Ixiu's disciple. If Chen Yu was Master Ixiu's disciple, he wouldn't mind giving him away.
Chen Yu naturally understood the other party's meaning. Daoist Priest Four-Eyed wanted him to sell it with money.
Chen Yu didn't have any objections. However, he had only brought 100 RMB with him when he first arrived in this world. Moreover, he had kept it in his jeans. He reckoned that Qingqing had probably washed it when she was washing her clothes. Whether it was still there was a problem. However, even if he found it, this world wouldn't admit it. It was probably impossible to use RMB to trick Daoist Priest Four-Eyed.
"I don't have any money on me. I'll exchange this with you!”
Soon after, Chen Yu removed a dragon-shaped jade pendant the size of a peach from his neck and said.
He had bought this jade pendant in an ancient town during a group trip organized by his school. Others would usually buy souvenirs for hundreds or even thousands of yuan, but Chen Yu had no money, so he bought this dragon-shaped jade pendant that was worth 100 yuan.
This jade pendant had dragon scales, dragon horns, and dragon eyes. It was lifelike, but there were traces of mottled colors mixed in the green color, which destroyed its overall beauty. The reason why it looked so similar was probably because the master sculptor had done it on a whim. Even so, this jade pendant was not worth much. It was not a fake.
The reason why the price was so low was because the materials used were the leftover bits and pieces cut from the jade.
For this reason, Chen Yu even went around the school and found a student studying archaeology to appraise it.
Despite this, Chen Yu still shocked everyone on the table when he took out this dragon-shaped jade pendant.
In this era, digging jade mines was not as advanced as the machines in the future. Therefore, jade was very scarce in this world. Jade jewelry could only be worn by rich and powerful families.
Although the material of Chen Yu's jade pendant wasn't of good quality, as long as it was genuine jade, he could still exchange it for over a hundred dollars at a pawnshop.
With a hundred dollars, he could buy a few houses in this courtyard.
Moreover, the function of jade was not limited to this. Jade was also a high-grade material for making magic tools.
"This is a little expensive. Chen Yu, you'd better quickly put it away!”
Master Yixiu, who had been traveling outside for many years, naturally knew the value of this dragon-shaped jade pendant, so he immediately instructed.
Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, the four-eyed Daoist priest snatched him away from Chen Yu's hands.
"Alright, with this jade pendant as a reward, you can use all the exorcism tools in my room in the future. It doesn't matter how much you take.”
Daoist Priest Four-Eyed hurriedly kept the dragon-shaped jade pendant into his bosom, looking as if he was afraid that Chen Yu would regret it.
"Master, you're letting Brother Chen down!”
"I say, old Taoist priest, you're not being honest.”
At this moment, Jia Le and Master Ikxiu, who were standing at the side, denounced Daoist Priest Four-Eyed in unison.
"Brat, if I die in the future, this jade pendant will still be yours.”
Daoist Priest Four-Eyed whispered into Jia Le's ear.
Jia Le originally wanted to persuade him, but after hearing his master's words, he recalled the moment Chen Yu took out the jade pendant. He was first shocked, then envious. Thinking about how this jade pendant would be his in the future, he stopped talking about it.
"Old monk, he has already agreed to it. Why are you shouting here? Don't you agree, Chen Yu?"
Soon after, Daoist Priest Four-Eyed looked at Chen Yu and said,"
"It's okay, Master. I volunteered.”
Chen Yu nodded in agreement.
From Daoist Priest Si Mu, Master Yixiu, and Jia Le's reactions, he could tell that this dragon-shaped jade pendant should be very precious in this era. However, to him, it was only a matter of a hundred yuan. It was not a big deal. It was more important to replenish the talisman paper first.
Seeing that Chen Yu had agreed, Master Ikxiu immediately found it inappropriate to say anything else!
Turning his head, Chen Yu saw the little girl Qingqing looking at the dragon-shaped jade pendant that Daoist Priest Four-Eyed had stuffed into his bosom with envy. Turning his head, he quietly whispered into Qingqing's ear,""Don't be envious. The next time we meet, Big Brother Chen Yu will give you an even better one.”
"Is what you said true? Big Brother Chen Yu?" Qingqing exclaimed in surprise when she heard Chen Yu's words.
"Of course." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"But that's under the condition that I can still come to this world.”
Chen Yu added inwardly.
