Just a moment ago, Chu Jiang was still reminiscing about the classic memories of Wen Xinya's childhood-Mr. Zombie.
In the next moment, he appeared in the wilderness.
No matter how foolish Chu Jiang was, he quickly figured out one thing. He had transmigrated!
Looking at the muddy dirt road, Chu Jiang knew that he should still be in the human world.
A few hours later, Chu Jiang walked out of the deep mountains along the dirt road and finally saw a house.
As he got closer, he realized that this family…Uh, it might not be accurate to call it a family, because this was a mortuary. The word "mortuary" was written on the door.
The so-called mortuary could be considered a different kind of hotel, except that the people staying there were usually dead people.
However, the mortuary had long disappeared from modern society and only existed in the old society before the Republic of China.
This made Chu Jiang's heart sink. It seemed that he had probably transmigrated to the ancient times of the Celestial Dynasty.
Normal people would usually stay away from the mortuary and try not to get close.
Looking at the paper money scattered in front of the door, Chu Jiang also felt a little unlucky and prepared to look elsewhere.
He was hungry and thirsty now, and he had to find someone to ask him where he had transmigrated to and what dynasty he was in.
Just as Chu Jiang turned around, he heard the sound of the door opening behind him.
Although it was in broad daylight, Chu Jiang's scalp still couldn't help but go numb.
"Hey, young man, are you looking for someone?”
A steady and powerful voice sounded from behind Chu Jiang.
Chu Jiang turned around and saw a middle-aged man of medium build.
Ninth Uncle?!" When he saw the middle-aged man, Chu Jiang almost blurted out in surprise.
"You know me?" Ninth Uncle said with a smile.
" Yes…Ah, no…" Chu Jiang was somewhat incoherent.
Ninth Uncle was a character in movies, and the actor who played Ninth Uncle in reality was Uncle Ying.
However, Uncle Ying passed away in 1997.
Chu Jiang's scalp went numb at the thought of this.
He carefully observed the surroundings of the mortuary and felt a sense of familiarity.
Wasn't this Uncle Nine's funeral home in Mr. Zombie?
Chu Jiang was enlightened.
He had transmigrated to the world of Mr. Zombie!
"What do you mean yes and no? You look travel-worn. You must have traveled a lot.
If you don't mind, come in and have a seat. Drink some water and rest.”Ninth Uncle said.
Chu Jiang came back to his senses and hurriedly replied,"Oh, okay, sorry to bother you."
"No need to disturb. Who didn't feel thirsty when they were out?”Ninth Uncle turned around and led the way.
Chu Jiang followed her into the mortuary.
After entering the house, he saw a courtyard. There were vegetables planted in the courtyard and a chicken coop in the corner.
When they passed through the courtyard and arrived at the main hall, they saw a person coming up to them.
"Master, who is this?" the man shouted.
"Guest. Wencai, please entertain them." Ninth Uncle said.
Wencai?
Chu Jiang looked at that person. As expected, he looked exactly like the literary talent in the movies.
"Oh, alright, Master." Wen Cai looked at Chu Jiang with a smile." Brother, did someone in your family pass away?”
Chu Jiang almost rushed up and slapped him.
Was there anyone who spoke like this?
You're the one who has a family member who has passed away. Your entire family has passed away!
"I just came in to rest, not to find you guys to hold a white wedding.”Chu Jiang replied.
"Oh, so you're just passing by." Hearing that it wasn't business, Wen Cai stopped smiling and poured a bowl of water for her.
"Thank you." Chu Jiang took the bowl of water and drank it in one gulp. He was indeed thirsty.
"Little brother, where are you going?”Ninth Uncle asked casually.
Hearing Ninth Uncle's question, Chu Jiang's brain began to work quickly.
The movie world that he had transmigrated to was in a chaotic world, and demons and ghosts were rampant. If a guy like him, who was unfamiliar with the place, wandered around outside, it was very likely that he would not live for more than half an episode.
Therefore, Chu Jiang decided to cling to Ninth Uncle.
In a flash, Chu Jiang thought of his lines." Sigh, I'm an overseas student who just returned from overseas. My family is no longer around. I wanted to seek shelter with a distant relative, but I didn't expect to meet a thief on the way. I lost all my luggage. Fortunately, I managed to keep my life. I've been homeless all the way here…"
"Where is your distant relative?" Wen Cai asked.
"Guangdong's Buddha Mountain." Chu Jiang said casually.
"That's thousands of miles away from here. You're penniless, and you'll starve to death before you even get there.”Wen Cai said sympathetically.
"Isn't that so? The entire journey has been chaotic. It's already a narrow escape for us to be able to reach this point.”Chu Jiang looked like he was pouring out his grievances.
In the troubled times of the Republic of China, warlords from all walks of life attacked each other, and recruiting able-bodied men was a common thing.
Ninth Uncle did not suspect Chu Jiang's words. After all, Chu Jiang was dressed like a Westerner. He did look like he had just returned from studying abroad.
"The sun is about to set. If you don't mind, little brother, you can stay at the mortuary tonight.”Ninth Uncle said.
"This is too much of a disturbance." Chu Jiang pretended to decline.
"As long as you don't feel unlucky." Ninth Uncle said with a smile.
"Thank you very much." Chu Jiang was secretly delighted. He decided to stay for now.
"No need to be so polite." Ninth Uncle said.
Next, Chu Jiang introduced himself and listened to Ninth Uncle and the others as usual.
Soon, it was dinner time.
Looking at the tofu and cabbage on the table, Chu Jiang didn't mind. He ate it very happily.
The material resources of this era were definitely not as abundant as those of the later era. It would be a blessing if there was an Amitabha Buddha who could eat a full meal and not starve to death.
Ninth Uncle saw that Chu Jiang didn't mind the bland food, and his impression of him increased greatly.
Looking at Chu Jiang's delicate skin and tender flesh, the material of the western dress was indeed extremely good.
She had thought that such a rich young master would not be used to these country food even if he was down and out. She did not expect him to eat with relish.
Ninth Uncle pointed at Wen Cai with his chopsticks and said,""After eating, go and tidy up Chu Jiang's room.”
"Got it, Master." Wen Cai raised his head that was buried in the bowl and mumbled.
"Then I'll have to trouble Brother Wen." Chu Jiang said.
After dinner, Chu Jiang didn't act as reserved as a guest. Instead, he took the initiative to clean up the dishes and helped Wen Cai clean up the kitchen.
Wen Cai was naturally very happy about this. He felt that Chu Jiang was a very interesting person, and the two of them quickly called each other brothers.
Ninth Uncle also saw this and was very satisfied with Chu Jiang's diligence. He was not like those young masters from rich families who did not touch the water.
The next day, Chu Jiang didn't leave, and Ninth Uncle didn't have any intention of chasing him away.
Hence, Chu Jiang stayed.
