"The three of you light a plum blossom incense town here. Tell me how it burns when you come back. Remember to burn incense at every grave. Ah Yi, hurry up. Don't forget to go to Old Master Ren's house tonight.”
"Got it, Master." The three brothers answered in unison.
This was a tacit understanding that had existed for many years. Every time Ninth Uncle assigned a task, they would answer in this way.
Ninth Uncle nodded and slowly walked down the mountain with his hands behind his back. Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng hugged Lin Yi and started fooling around."Eldest Senior Brother, it looks like you're in luck tonight. You're going to stay at Tingting's house temporarily. A pavilion near the water gets the moon first."”
"Tingting is so beautiful.”
"Alright, there's no sign of you. Let's get to work. The sooner we finish, the sooner we go home. It'll be dark soon and it'll be very lively here.”Lin Yi smiled and pushed the two of them away.
Hearing Lin Yi's words, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai looked at each other and shuddered. They did not dare to mess around anymore.
Lin Yi took out a handful of incense sticks from his carrying bag. Qiu Sheng found a match and lit it up. The three of them split up and began to work separately.
Most of the graves here were small graves. There was only one large tomb belonging to the Ren family. Lin Yi was about to finish distributing the incense in his hand. He went to an inconspicuous small grave at the edge and looked at the inscription on the tombstone.
Dong Xiaoyu's tomb, Xiantong 7th-27th year
"Wow, she died at the age of 20. Such a beautiful girl. What a pity. Come and burn some incense. Don't think it's too little."”Lin Yi said with pity. Then, he stuck the last incense stick in front of the grave.
Dong Xiaoyu was indeed beautiful. In Hong Kong movies, she was definitely one of the most impressive female ghost characters. There were some jokes on the Internet. Qiu Sheng was a ghost, Xu Xian was a snake, and the most admirable one was a caterpillar.
But now, the autumn birthday ghost was destined to disappear. Sigh, for the sake of his junior brother's health, I, as his senior brother, have put in a lot of effort.
"Thank you."
A leisurely voice sounded in his ear, followed by a crisp ding dong sound in Lin Yi's mind.
Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the side mission: Subdue the female ghost Dong Xiaoyu and plunder Qiu Sheng's luck. 1000 points.
"I'm coming to live!" Lin Yi was stunned for a moment. He turned around with a strange expression and looked at Dong Xiaoyu's tombstone."I have to accept it now. It's my first mission after all."”
"Thank you."
Another faint voice of thanks sounded. This time, Lin Yi heard it clearly. He was also certain in his heart that this Xiao Yu would not be able to escape.
"Senior Brother, come and see!”
Wen Cai looked at the incense stick in his hand and shouted in panic. Lin Yi also ran over in panic.
"He's here."
"Senior Brother, look at this incense!”Wen Cai ran to Lin Yi's side in a panic. Qiu Sheng also rushed over when he heard the sound. The three of them looked at the incense in Wen Cai's hand with nervous expressions.
He had been burning incense for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen such a strange incense.
"Senior Brother, you have been with Master for the longest time. What is the meaning of this incense burning like this?”Qiu Sheng didn't understand why the incense sticks were burning in two short and one long lengths, but he knew that there was definitely something strange about it.
"People are most afraid of three long and two short, and incense is also taboo. If this incense is produced in front of the grave, someone will definitely die.”Lin Yi frowned as he looked at the incense.
"Ah! Then let's hurry back and tell Master!”Wen Cai said anxiously.
"Alright, let's hurry back to find Master.”
After
more than half an hour, Lin Yi and the other two rushed back to the mortuary. When they returned, it was already late.
"Master, we're back.”They rushed into the mortuary in a hurry. Strangely, Old Master Ren and Ren Tingting were also in the mortuary. When they saw the three people who had returned in a panic, their expressions were not good, and they also became nervous.
"Old Master Ren, Tingting, why are you here?”Wen Cai asked curiously. Shouldn't he be going home?
Ren Tingting did not wear the western dress today. Instead, she wore a light blue cheongsam. The dress was tight and showed off her figure. In addition, Ren Tingting looked a little tired after running outside for a day. She looked very lovable.
Ren Tingting was very uncomfortable being stared at by Wen Cai's wretched little eyes and hid behind Old Master Ren.
"Let me see how the Plum Blossom Fragrance Formation looks like.”Ninth Uncle came up to greet him.
"Master, take a look. Senior Brother said that it's very unlucky for the incense to burn like this.”Wen Cai handed the incense to Ninth Uncle. When Ninth Uncle saw the incense, his eyebrows stood up.
"Looks like I'm right." Ninth Uncle seemed to have expected this and said with a solemn expression.
"Ninth Uncle, what do you mean by the incense sticks burning like this?”Old Master Ren saw that Ninth Uncle's expression was not right and asked nervously.
"People are afraid of three long and two short. Incense is forbidden to have two short and one long. This incense burning like this is a bad omen. If this incense is produced in the house, someone will definitely die. Old Master Ren, it seems that Ah Yi will have to disturb your house for the next few days.”Ninth Uncle looked at Old Master Ren and said.
"Ah! Uncle Nine, you must help me. As long as I can survive this disaster, I'll give you 500 yuan with both hands.”Old Master Ren's voice trembled in fear.
What did 5,000 yuan mean? Qiusheng went to buy glutinous rice. 50 catties only cost 5 yuan! 500 yuan was enough to last them for several years.
"Old Master Ren, this matter is no longer just a matter of your Ren family. If Old Master Ren really changes into a corpse, it won't just be the Ren family that will be affected. The entire town's citizens may also be affected.”Ninth Uncle said righteously.
"Ninth Uncle is indeed a grandmaster. I feel ashamed, but for the sake of the people of the town, 500 yuan is nothing. Ninth Uncle, don't refuse anymore. It's settled. Oh right, it's getting late. Tingting and I should go back. Ninth Uncle, let Ah Yi come with us.”As Old Master Ren spoke, he looked at Lin Yi.
In Old Master Ren's opinion, the most capable person in the mortuary was Lin Yi besides Ninth Uncle. If Lin Yi was by his side, he would feel much more at ease.
"Alright, Ah Yi, pack your things and accompany Old Master Ren back to the residence.”Ninth Uncle nodded and did not refuse the 500 yuan anymore. He asked Lin Yi to pack his things and go home with Old Master Ren and his daughter.
"Alright, Master. I'll go change my clothes and get ready.”Lin Yi nodded.
Lin
Yi returned to his room and put on his Daoist robe. He put a handful of talismans in his carrying bag. These talismans were all drawn by Ninth Uncle. If he met an ordinary little ghost, he would stick a few on it to ensure that the little ghost would die. Then, he also put in a small jar of glutinous rice.
When he saw the glutinous rice, Lin Yi suddenly thought of something. If zombies appeared, the glutinous rice would definitely be out of stock. Otherwise, he would have to stock up on a few hundred catties of glutinous rice!
After thinking about it, Lin Yi decided to give up. If he had the time to earn money, he might as well focus on completing missions. In this chaotic world where ghosts and zombies were rampant, what was the use of money? It was better to grow one's abilities.
After packing his things and bringing the mahogany sword, Lin Yi could be considered fully armed. With such equipment, even if Old Master Ren really appeared, Lin Yi could still escape.
Nonsense, with Lin Yi's current ability, ordinary small undeads wouldn't be a problem. For a big dumpling like Old Master Ren who could fly and walk, it would be good if he could escape.
