……
Not long after, Wu Feng arrived at the mortuary in Ren Town.
This was where Ninth Uncle lived.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Wu Feng knocked on the door.
"Coming, who is it?" A voice came from inside.
The door opened, and a young man with mushroom hair appeared in front of Wu Feng. Although he was a young man, he looked a little mature. His face was as wrinkled as an orange.
Wu Feng knew that this was Ninth Uncle's second disciple, Wen Cai.
"Who…are you?" Wen Cai looked at Wu Feng curiously.
"I want to visit Ninth Uncle," said Wu Feng.”
"To visit my master. Just you wait.”Wen Cai nodded and shouted into the mortuary,"Master, there's someone outside who says he wants to pay you a visit. Is he here to challenge you?”
Wu Feng was speechless.
Soon, a person walked out of the mortuary. He was wearing white pajamas and had a crew cut. His hair was white, and his most distinctive feature was his thick eyebrows. He had a square face and bright eyes. He was the legendary Ninth Uncle.
Ninth Uncle glanced at Wu Feng and said,""Who are you?"
Wu Feng bowed and said,"I'm Wu Feng, the night watchman."”
Ninth Uncle looked at Wu Feng in shock and said,"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. So you're a night watchman. Although night watchmen are everywhere now, there aren't many night watchmen who are truly capable.”
"Hehe, this kid is stupid. He's just a night patrol captain.”Wu Feng said humbly.
Ninth Uncle smiled and said," Little brother, you're too modest. At your age, it's already rare for you to reach the rank of night patrol lieutenant. Your future is limitless. Please come in."”
Wu Feng was invited into the mortuary by Ninth Uncle and asked Wen Cai to prepare tea.
Wu Feng and Ninth Uncle were drinking tea and chatting.
"Little brother, are you passing by Ren Town, or are you here to deal with something?" Ninth Uncle asked.”
The area within a hundred miles of the Ren family town was under Ninth Uncle's protection. If there were any evil spirits, Ninth Uncle would be responsible for them.
Ninth Uncle was very surprised. The night watchman had actually appeared in Ren Town. Could it be that something had happened around Ren Town that he did not know about?
"I'm not passing by, but I plan to stay in Ren Town for a while," said Wu Feng.”
Ninth Uncle nodded and said enthusiastically,""Alright, if you don't mind, we can stay in the mortuary. We can also discuss the Dao. To be honest, I'm very curious about the spell of the night watchman.”
"Hehe, I don't mind. Thank you, Ninth Uncle.”Wu Feng said politely.
At this moment, the door rang again.
Wen Cai opened the door, and a tall young man walked in. He was quite handsome. He was Ninth Uncle's eldest disciple, Qiu Sheng.
According to the original plot, Qiu Sheng should have been pestered by Old Ghost at this time and then came to Ninth Uncle for help behind Old Ghost's back.
However, Wu Feng had already dealt with Lao Gui in advance, so Qiu Sheng arrived at the mortuary smoothly.
"What are you doing here so late at night? Aren't you staying in your aunt's shop?”Wen Cai asked in confusion.
Qiu Sheng smiled." It's so boring to keep watch alone in the shop. I'm here to look for Master. I have something important to discuss."”
At this moment, Qiu Sheng noticed Wu Feng and said,""Eh? Who is this person?"
Ninth Uncle coughed and said,"What's with the 'a'? You're rude!" Qiusheng, come over and greet him. This is the night watchman.”
"Isn't he just a night watchman? Do I need to bow to him?”Qiu Sheng said disapprovingly.
Obviously, Qiu Sheng didn't know the real profession of a watchman.
It was no wonder. In fact, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were not very talented. They had followed Ninth Uncle for so long and had just entered the sect. They were still Ninth Uncle's outer sect disciples.
"Don't take offense." Ninth Uncle sighed.
Wu Feng smiled but didn't say anything.
"Qiusheng, why did you come back so late?”Ninth Uncle reprimanded and glared at Qiu Sheng.
Qiu Sheng immediately ran over and said,""Master, do you know? Huangjiatun is in trouble."
"Hmm?"
Ninth Uncle and Wu Feng were both stunned. Wu Feng was a little surprised. Was Huang Village in trouble? Why hadn't he seen it in the original novel? It wasn't just the movie, the novel also didn't mention Huangjiatun.
It seemed that this world was not as simple as the movies. There were some things that were not shown in the movies.
Ninth Uncle put down his teacup and said,"What are you up to?" Tell me the details."
Qiu Sheng took a sip of tea and said," I also heard it from the people who came to the shop to buy things today. It's said that the Huangjiatun incident is quite evil."”
"Don't keep me in suspense. Tell me quickly." Ninth Uncle berated.
"It's said that there's a tree outside Huangjiatun Village that eats people," Qiu Sheng said seriously.”
"A man-eating tree?" Ninth Uncle and Wu Feng looked at each other and frowned.
"Could it be that some tree has become a spirit? Why don't we go and take a look tomorrow? Little brother, do you want to come along?”Ninth Uncle asked Wu Feng.
"Yes, we can go and take a look." Wu Feng nodded.
He liked things like ghosts and evil spirits the most because he could earn merit points.
Moreover, when Qiu Sheng mentioned that trees ate people, a voice appeared in Wu Feng's mind.
"Please head to Huangjiatun to understand the reason for the matter. Mission reward: 500 merit points, 10 essence refining stones.”
The Essence Refining Stone was used to strengthen magic tools.
In the past two months, Wu Feng had also dealt with some malicious ghosts. These malicious ghosts were like monsters in the game. Occasionally, they would drop one or two Essence Refining Stones.
Just like that, Wu Feng stayed in the mortuary for the night.
Early the next morning, Ninth Uncle and Wu Feng prepared to go to Huangjiatun.
Coincidentally, just as they were about to go out, Huang Jiatun actually sent someone to invite Ninth Uncle.
It turned out that the matter of the Huangjiatun tree eating people had become more and more serious. The people of Huangjiatun knew that the one-browed Taoist priest of the Ren family town was an extraordinary expert, so they sent someone to ask Ninth Uncle to help.
"Ninth Uncle, you have to save us.”The villagers of Huangjiatun cried and begged.
"I already know. Actually, I was planning to go to Huangjiatun today.”Ninth Uncle said righteously.
"That's great. Our Huangjiatun is saved now. Ninth Uncle, let's go now.”The villagers of Huangjiatun said excitedly.
"Lead the way ~~"
"Alright."
Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng also came along. Qiu Sheng had specially applied for a day off for his aunt. He did not want to look after the shop anymore and wanted to go to Huangjiatun to broaden his horizons.
