Not to mention how Lin Jiu stopped Annie from going to Ren Town.
Lin Xiao and Qiu Sheng finally walked into the main street of Ren Town in the evening under their full speed.
Just as Qiu Sheng had said, Ren Town was much more prosperous than Jiuquan Town. There were few malnourished people among the people who came and went. It could be seen that the overall economic level here was indeed good.
However, what Lin Xiao did not expect was that Qiu Sheng's popularity in Ren Town was actually quite good. After entering the main street, many people greeted him. His sincere tone made Lin Xiao a little envious.
However, what made Lin Xiao satisfied was that Qiu Sheng would introduce his existence to every person he met. Therefore, many people were curious about this young man who took over Lin Jiu's position in the mortuary.
The Ren Family Town's mortuary was on the east side of the town, which meant that they had to cross the entire street. By the time they returned to the mortuary, the sky was already completely dark.
"Martial Uncle, you should rest for a while. I'll go and tidy up this place. Then, we'll make dinner!”Qiu Sheng shouted and started to get busy.
Lin Xiao nodded and began to wander around the mortuary. It was obvious that although he had lived in Jiuquan for a few years, Lin Jiu still treated this place as his main place. Not only was everything complete, but it was also very clean. It should have been done by those who came specially to clean.
It was just that the daily necessities and Lin Jiu's magic tools were gone. However, no matter how honest Lin Jiu was, he couldn't possibly leave those precious things behind. He couldn't have the heart to harm others, but he couldn't be without the heart to guard against others. This was a saying passed down by his ancestors for thousands of years, and it naturally made sense.
He walked to the back hall and lit three incense sticks for the Mao Mountain ancestor. Then, he bowed three times before walking into the place where the coffin was stored.
This was a very large warehouse. There were no less than 30 coffins densely packed inside. However, Lin Xiao only took a glance and confirmed that these coffins were all empty.
The mortuary was neither big nor small. When Lin Xiao finished his tour, Qiu Sheng had already started cooking outside. Lin Xiao walked to the door in boredom. Looking at the lights not far away, he gently exhaled.
From today onwards, he had officially begun his journey in this world. The things he had done before did not count. After all, although he had done many things before, most of them were done under Lin Jiu's guidance. They could only be considered as learning.
Just as Lin Xiao was in a daze, a figure suddenly ran over from the street not far away. His haste caused his footsteps to be somewhat chaotic.
"Qiu Sheng, is Qiu Sheng here?"
Before the person arrived at the mortuary, his voice could already be heard from afar.
Lin Xiao was slightly stunned, and then he walked up to them. Soon, the two of them met. Lin Xiao then realized that the person in front of him was one of the people who greeted Qiu Sheng when they came. He was about 40 years old and looked a little hunched, but he was still in good spirits.
"Elder brother, Qiusheng is cooking. I wonder what happened to make you so anxious?”
Seeing Lin Xiao, the middle-aged man hurriedly said,""Master Lin, I'm here to look for you. My house seems to be haunted. Can you come with me to take a look?”
Lin Xiao frowned slightly. Lin Jiu had been away for a few years, and nothing had happened here. But now, he had just arrived and a ghost had come out to cause trouble? Could it be that he really had the Conan Constitution?
Shaking his head, he threw away this ridiculous idea and said,""Brother, you must be joking. Catching ghosts and subduing demons is the duty of cultivators like us.”
"Hey, thank you, thank you!" The middle-aged man was a little excited.
Lin Xiao took the opportunity to turn around and shouted at Qiu Sheng in the mortuary,""Qiusheng, I'm going out to take a look. Don't wait for me after you're done cooking. Eat and rest early.”
Qiu Sheng hurriedly ran out." Martial Uncle, do you want me to go with you?"”
Qiu Sheng scratched his head awkwardly.""In the past, I only knew how to play with Master. Now, I want to learn more!”
"Is that so?" Lin Xiao looked at Qiu Sheng with a smile. Is the fire ready? Don't wait for us to come back, the mortuary is gone!”
"Uncle-Master, don't worry. I've already extinguished it. The rice is almost ready.”
Lin Xiao nodded and gestured for the middle-aged man to lead the way.
What surprised Lin Xiao was that this middle-aged man who looked unattractive was actually a rich man. He lived in a three-door courtyard. Looking at the interior decoration, this middle-aged man's net worth was probably not much less than that Old Master Ren.
Qiu Sheng also whispered into Lin Xiao's ear,""This person is called Wang Baiwan. His family has a lot of wealth, but he's a good person. He's kind and charitable. He's helped many poor people. He's also carefree and likes to talk to everyone. He's quite loved in town, but…well, he's a little lecherous.”
Lin Xiao hummed lightly. It was a man's nature to be lecherous. It was just that those without money could only think about it, while those with money made it a reality. Moreover, in this era, men had three wives and four concubines, so no one would care about these things.
However, just as they passed by a flowerbed, Lin Xiao suddenly stopped in his tracks. His eyes looked in the direction of the flowerbed, and a bright light flickered...
