"Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, Sixth Uncle…Elders, take care.”
At the entrance of the Lin Family Village, hundreds of people were here to send Lin Jiang off.
Lin Jiang cupped his fists and bowed to all the elders.
When he was eight years old, his father died of illness. When he was ten years old, his mother also went to the west with him. He was still young, but these uncles took turns raising him and bringing him up.
All these years in the Lin Family Village, basically every elder had taken care of him.
This scene made Ninth Uncle a little jealous. Every time he returned to the Lin Family Village, he would walk alone. Even his brothers had never sent him off.
"Ninth Brother, Lin Jiang isn't young anymore. Don't just let him learn skills. If there's a suitable girl in Ren Family Town, arrange a marriage for him.”
Before leaving, Lin Jiang's uncles did not forget to tell Ninth Uncle.
It was only because Lin Jiang had no parents that he would have gotten married long ago. In this era, many people like him were already fathers.
Ninth Uncle nodded in agreement. Lin Jiang was his nephew, and he was also his disciple now. He really had to make the decision for marriage in the future.
He had not married yet, but that did not mean that he wanted Lin Jiang to be like him.
"Fourth Uncle, help me tidy up my house when you have time.”
"Good! I'll ask your aunt to clean it often.”
"Let's go!" Ninth Uncle turned around and left with Lin Jiang.
The time period in this world was at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. There was basically no traffic.
The most unique mode of transportation was walking.
If he had money, he could ride a horse.
However, a Taoist priest like Ninth Uncle, although he did not advocate ascetic cultivation, would not buy a horse to ride if there was no need to rush.
The Ren Family Town was more than two hundred miles away from the Lin Family Village. Even if Lin Jiang and Ninth Uncle had cultivated the body-tempering technique, the journey was different from that of ordinary people. It would still take them more than a day or two.
With the addition of meals and sleep, it would take nearly two days to reach Ren Town.
Of course, Lin Jiang and Ninth Uncle didn't just focus on their journey during these two days.
As he walked, Ninth Uncle taught Lin Jiang spells and taught him about cultivation.
Nothing unusual happened along the way.
When they arrived at Ren Town, Jiang Chuan had already learned a few more spells.
"How is it? You've never seen such a prosperous place, right?”
Compared to the countryside like Lin Family Village, Ren Family Town was much more prosperous. Occasionally, one could even see a carriage.
However, Lin Jiang had attended university in Shanghai in his previous life and had seen countless bustling places.
The Ren Family Town was still alright in this era, but compared to his previous life, any backward town would be a few streets behind this place.
"It's alright. It's better than I imagined.”He still had to give Ninth Uncle some face.
Of course, in this era, Ren Town could indeed be considered prosperous.
In a small town, there was actually someone who came here to open a "foreign tea" restaurant. This kind of thing might not even be available in some remote counties.
"Hello, Ninth Uncle!"
"Ninth Uncle is back!"
"Ninth Uncle!"
……
Uncle Nine brought Liu Jiang through the street, and people kept greeting Uncle Nine.
Ninth Uncle was quite respected in the Ren Family Town. From the squires and landowners to the peddlers, they would all give him some face.
Ninth Uncle smiled and agreed. He pointed at Lin Jiang and said,""This is my new disciple, Lin Jiang.”
Lin Jiang raised his hand and cupped his fists.”
"Yo! Little brother is quite handsome."
"Ninth Uncle, this disciple is not bad!"
"The key is that he's more polite than those two bastards, Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng.”
"You look very calm. Ninth Uncle, you don't have to worry that no one will inherit your ability to subdue demons.”
Ninth Uncle was very happy and polite.
He was very satisfied with Lin Jiang. When others praised Lin Jiang, he felt more satisfied than when they praised him.
"This kid still needs to be sculpted. I'll have to trouble everyone to supervise him in the future.”
"Greetings, Ninth Uncle. I was just about to go to the mortuary to look for you.”Just as they were about to leave Ren Town, a person who looked like a servant caught up to them.
Ninth Uncle opened a mortuary, which was quite a distance away from Ren Town.
That was a place where the dead were placed. In addition, this world was feudal, so the mortuary could not be built in the center of the town.
"The mortuary should be very profitable!" Lin Jiang thought.
In his previous life, those crematoriums were all filthy rich and monopolized the business. If they asked you for 1,000 yuan, you wouldn't dare to give them 800 yuan. If they asked you for 100,000 yuan or 80,000 yuan for less than three feet of land, you could only grit your teeth and pay.
"You're a servant of Old Master Ren's family, right? Why are you looking for me?”
The servant said," The old master asked me to come. He invited Ninth Uncle to go to that…that 'Ke Lu Shi' cafe tomorrow afternoon to drink some foreign tea and discuss about the old master's coffin and burial.”
Lin Jiang's heart skipped a beat." Zombie 1's plot is about to begin. What a coincidence."”
The Ren family's burial had cost Ren Fa his life. He had been bitten to death by the zombie that his father had turned into.
Ninth Uncle nodded expressionlessly. Go and tell Old Master Ren that I will be there on time tomorrow.”
"Then I'll have to trouble Ninth Uncle. I'll go back and inform Old Master first.”
After the Ren family's servants left, Ninth Uncle brought Lin Jiang along for a while before arriving at a very large courtyard.
