"Ninth Uncle, Lu Chen, is my nephew alright?”
After a round of discussion, Ren Fa was concerned about his unconscious distant nephew. Lu Chen said,"Mix rice vinegar and glutinous rice into a soup and feed it to him. He will recover in less than three days.”
Ren Fa quickly instructed the servants to do as he was told and called the butler over."Give 20 yuan to Ninth Uncle and Lu Chen.”
It was now the era of the Northern Warlords government. The purchasing power of the ocean was very high. A family of three only needed to spend about four or five oceans a month.
It could be said that 20 yuan was already a lot of money for ordinary people.
After paying the remuneration, Ren Fa invited Ninth Uncle and Lu Chen to stay for tea.
In this situation, Lu Chen could not help but think of Ah Wei's famous saying in the movie-Uncle, I want to drink tea. A knowing smile appeared on his face.
"Ninth Uncle, it's like this. I want to move my father's coffin and bury him. I want to entrust this matter to you.”
After chatting for a while, Ren Fa got down to business. It turned out that he wanted to move the grave of Old Master Ren.
Lu Chen's heart tightened. From Ren Fa's words, he realized that it would not be too long before the grave of the Ren family's old master was moved. This meant that the plot was about to begin, which made him feel a sense of urgency to improve his cultivation as soon as possible.
Ninth Uncle frowned slightly." Old Master Ren, it's better to stay quiet than to move. Please reconsider!”He had always adhered to the principle that it was better to avoid trouble when it came to moving graves. If there were no problems, he would not disturb the peace of the ancestors.
" Ninth Uncle, you don't have to say anything more. The Feng Shui master said that the coffin should be moved after twenty years."In the past two years, our Ren family has offended some kind of god. Our business has plummeted, and we've been unlucky. Now, we're even haunted.”
Lu Chen pursed his lips. He had offended the Feng Shui master!
"According to what you said, Old Master Ren." "It seems like there's really something wrong with the feng shui," Ninth Uncle said thoughtfully.”
It was not just a problem, it was a huge problem. Old Master Ren was about to turn into a zombie.
Lu Chen cursed in his heart. It was about to evolve to the point where the father would come out of the coffin to kill his son when he saw that his son was still alive. At that time, not only would his business plummet, but his family would also be destroyed.
When Ninth Uncle and Lu Chen came out of the Ren Residence, it was already afternoon. They only had a few words about the matter of the old master's coffin being moved. They would talk about it in detail in two days.
They replenished some glutinous rice, cinnabar, talisman paper, and other items in town. They didn't stay in Ren Family Town for long and returned to the mortuary.
"Master, you're back."
Wen Cai, who was guarding the house, sat in the courtyard and basked in the sun. When he saw Ninth Uncle and Lu Chen return, he happily went forward to help them get things.
"Junior Brother, I heard others say that the Ren residence is very big, is it true?”
"Yes, it's about the size of three or four mortuary houses. You can go and see for yourself next time!”
Lu Chen nodded. The Ren Residence was indeed quite big, and it had a private garden. It was a luxurious villa.
"I don't even know anyone from the Ren residence. How could I have the chance to enter…"
Wen Cai did not take Lu Chen's words seriously. Lu Chen smiled and did not explain. If the Ren Residence really wanted to move the graves, then they would have a lot of opportunities to enter the Ren Residence.
"Lu Chen, come here. This is your reward for today.”
Ninth Uncle changed his clothes and came out. He stretched out his open palm and there were five dollars on it.
According to the rules of the mortuary, half of the remuneration received from the ritual would be confiscated as the cost of maintaining the mortuary's operations, and the remaining half would be divided according to how much everyone contributed.
Today, it was mainly Lu Chen who made a move, so he could take the biggest share. However, he shook his head and said,"Master, I don't need this money. Just confiscate it!”
He lived and ate in the mortuary and had no place to spend money. Moreover, he had been crazily practicing drawing talismans during this period of time, so his expenses were quite high.
Yellow talismans, cinnabar, smoke ink, and other materials for drawing talismans were not expensive, but he had been drawing talismans too crazily during this period of time, and the consumption was especially large. As he practiced every day, it made the already poor mortuary even worse.
This time, Ren Fa's commission had given them a timely boost.
Of course, the result of drawing talismans crazily was that he had mastered all the talismans that Ninth Uncle knew, and the effect was very obvious.
"That's fine. I'll confiscate these five dollars and use them as funds to purchase yellow talismans, cinnabar, and other materials.”
Ninth Uncle didn't stand on ceremony either. He put away the ocean and glanced at Wen Cai."Learn from your junior brother."”Wen Cai: o((Jiuge Jiuge))o
Besides, Master, most of my usual salary has been deducted by you in the name of "saving it for me to move to the provincial capital in the future"!
After dinner, Lu Chen returned to his room to rest. He sat cross-legged on his bed and counted his spoils of war.
Not only did he get 100 merit points for killing the evil spirit today, but he also got a bronze treasure chest. I wonder what the system reward for the treasure chest will be?
He rubbed his hands together and breathed out in hopes of increasing his luck." System, help me open the treasure chest."”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for learning the 'Stealth Talisman'. You have received Ocean X1!!”
As the system's cold mechanical notification sounded, Lu Chen felt a surge of information suddenly surge into his mind, recording in detail all the contents of the Stealth Talisman.
The so-called Stealth Talisman was a type of talisman that reduced the presence of the person using the talisman so that others would not notice them.
Everyone had probably had the experience of holding a key in their hands but looking for it everywhere. That was because the key's presence had suddenly weakened, so even if it was held in their hands, they would not notice it. This was Stealth.
Moreover, the reward given by the system not only allowed him to understand the Stealth Talisman, but also allowed him to completely master the drawing method of the Stealth Talisman.
This kind of mastery was not the kind of ordinary memory that Ninth Uncle taught or learned on his own. It was similar to comprehending the Heavenly Book. It directly formed muscle memory and completely grasped the Stealth Talisman.
In order to prove his conjecture, he jumped out of bed and spread out the yellow paper in front of the table. He dipped his brush in cinnabar ink, took a deep breath, and directly wrote on the yellow paper.
Soon, a seemingly sloppy Stealth Talisman that was in line with the Dao of Yin and Yang was officially created.
Lu Chen picked up the Stealth Talisman that he had just made and was overjoyed. He had indeed skipped the early practice and could directly draw the Stealth Talisman.
He opened the system interface and saw the Stealth Talisman in the Enchanted Talisman column. Moreover, the Stealth Talisman had skipped the entry level and was mastered by him just like the other talismans.
He clicked his tongue in admiration. The talisman from the treasure chest could actually be directly grasped by him. This was simply like a heifer riding a motorcycle-awesome!!
Previously, he was still worried about where to learn new talismans after learning all the talismans his master knew. Now, he did not have to worry anymore. The system directly pointed him in the right direction.
Slaying demons was a path with boundless prospects!!
