The night was thick. Under the lonely moonlight, a figure quietly approached the mortuary.
"At this time, Master should be asleep, right?”
"Ancestor, please bless me. Master is already so old. He definitely won't be up so late…"
Qiu Sheng returned to the mortuary and tiptoed to the door, not daring to enter. He closed his eyes and prayed to Guanyin, Jesus, the Kitchen God, and all the other deities he could think of.
Branches ~
Pushing open the door of the mortuary, Qiu Sheng stuck his head out and thought to himself that he mustn't be discovered by Ninth Uncle.
"Humph!"
However, the wooden door of the mortuary courtyard had just opened a crack when Qiu Sheng heard this cold snort. His entire body immediately became uncomfortable, and he began to tremble as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"You're really my good disciple. You still know to come back!”
Qiusheng's head had not yet reached the courtyard. When he heard Ninth Uncle's voice, he could not help but close his eyes with a pained expression.
What should he do?
Was it too late to run now?
"Hehe!"
Qiu Sheng pushed open the door and bent his back. He looked at Ninth Uncle with a smile.
Qiu Sheng didn't know what was going on, but he felt that his smile wasn't sincere after he left Chu Lan's place.
Qiu Sheng sized up Ninth Uncle, especially the thick cane behind him. Bean-sized beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead. He swallowed his saliva and said with an awkward smile.
"Erm, Master, you haven't slept yet?”
After Qiu Sheng entered the courtyard, he walked close to the wall, keeping the greatest distance between himself and Ninth Uncle.
"My good disciple hasn't returned yet. How can a master be embarrassed to sleep?”Ninth Uncle raised his eyebrows and looked at Qiusheng playfully. After touching the bump on his head, he was even more determined.
Qiu Sheng suddenly felt like crying.
Ninth Uncle narrowed his eyes and asked when he saw Qiusheng holding a basket.
"What are you holding?"
Qiu Sheng was reminded of this. He jogged over and got close to Ninth Uncle.
"Master, this is good stuff. Master, let me finish!"
Before Qiu Sheng could finish, he saw Ninth Uncle pick up the rattan beside him and plunder his body with a fierce gaze.
"Master, master, this is the mushroom that great-martial uncle planted. I specially asked great-martial uncle to come and give it to you!”
Ninth Uncle: "!!!"
Little Uncle-Master's mushroom?
It was definitely not an ordinary item. He wondered what the mushroom was for.
Ninth Uncle rolled his eyes and looked at Qiu Sheng with a serious expression.
"You asked to come? You didn't steal it?"
It wasn't that Ninth Uncle didn't trust Qiusheng, but he knew his disciples too well. He could roughly guess what they were doing now.
Now that he said that he asked for it from Youngest Uncle, Ninth Uncle really didn't believe it.
"Master, if you think that way, it will hurt your disciple's heart. If I didn't want it, could it be that I stole it? Master, you know how fierce the cannon in the yard of the great martial uncle is.”
After saying that, Qiu Sheng looked aggrieved, which made Ninth Uncle suspicious.
Had this kid changed? He even knew how to show filial piety to his master?
Wen Cai, who could smell the food from afar, had a green light in his eyes when he heard it. He ran over and asked the two excitedly.
"Is there food?"
Seeing Wen Cai come out, Qiu Sheng immediately took out a mushroom and stuffed it into Ninth Uncle and Wen Cai's hands.
"Come, come, come. If you see a portion, try it.”
After seeing Chu Lan's vegetable garden and seeing how Ninth Uncle had recovered after eating a peanut, the three of them looked at the mushrooms in the box with green faces and swallowed their saliva.
"Humph." Ninth Uncle raised his eyes and glanced coldly at Qiu Sheng." Out of filial piety, I've troubled you this time! If there is a next time, hmph hmph."
Qiu Sheng heaved a sigh of relief.
It was finally over.
"Come, come, come, eat, eat!" After resolving the crisis that his master had brought him, Qiu Sheng suddenly became much more cheerful. He pointed at the mushroom in his hand and said.
Ninth Uncle nodded. He didn't care about the taste of the mushroom and took a bite directly.
Did they eat these things for the taste?
Although the peanuts tasted good, it was not the taste that made Ninth Uncle treat them as treasures, but the benefits brought by the food.
Creak ~
Seeing Ninth Uncle take a bite, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai couldn't hold it in any longer. They didn't know how to cherish things as well as Ninth Uncle, so they took a big bite of the mushroom.
"Qiu Sheng, are you sure you brought this mushroom from your great-martial uncle? Why do I feel that something is wrong?" Wen Cai shook his head and looked at Qiu Sheng with blurry eyes.
Ninth Uncle and Qiu Sheng also felt dizzy.
"Look, there are fish flying in the sky!"”
"I've become an immortal!"
The moonless night was completely silent.
However, the mortuary became lively all of a sudden. The three of them seemed to have encountered something joyous, and it was very strange for them to sing and dance in the courtyard.
The bird in the courtyard was woken up halfway through its sleep. It looked at the three people in the courtyard as if they were fools.
The three of them only returned to normal the next morning.
Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng ate less because the mushrooms tasted bad.
However, Uncle Nine ate the mushroom as if it was a treasure, so he was the last to wake up.
When he woke up, he saw Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai staring at him.
"What about me?"
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai looked at each other and shook their heads.
Qiu Sheng knew that when he woke up, he would remember what he had done not long after.
Moreover, Wencai looked just like him.
Then Ninth Uncle
If he found out that he had given them poisonous mushrooms to eat, he would just wait for death!
"Master, you're fine. You were sleepwalking!”Qiu Sheng looked at Ninth Uncle and said solemnly, hoping to fool him.
However, he did not expect Wen Cai to be there. At this moment, Wen Cai nodded with a serious expression.
"That's right, Master. You sleepwalked after eating Qiu Sheng's mushrooms and even muttered something about Sister Lian?”
"Master, who is Sister Lian?"
