Su Xing He stood beside Ninth Uncle and watched him act cool in front of Old Master Ren. He just smiled and did not say anything. This was Ninth Uncle's famous scene!
Ninth Uncle's name was Lin Fengjiao. His name was quite famous because he was ranked ninth among the disciples of the Maoshan Sect. He was also known as Lin Jiu. In Ren Town, people called him Ninth Uncle.
However, although Ninth Uncle was famous, Old Master Ren had never seen his ability with his own eyes, so it was inevitable that he would look down on Ninth Uncle in some aspects.
Although Ninth Uncle was a kind person, as a disciple of Mao Mountain and an Earthly Master, he still had the arrogance he should have.
Of course, Ninth Uncle did not embarrass Old Master Ren. After all, he was his employer.
Ninth Uncle also wanted to build a good relationship with a country squire like Old Master Ren. The power of a country squire could not be underestimated in Ren Town.
Not to mention a local overlord like Old Master Ren!
"Humph!"
Ninth Uncle snorted.
" Don't worry, Old Master Ren. Since we've accepted your mission, we'll naturally do it well. However, we might need you to…"
Ninth Uncle said. Next, he had to show off his abilities in front of Old Master Ren. He could not be treated as a liar.
"Master, the altar is ready!"
Qiu Sheng walked over to Ninth Uncle and said respectfully.
"Yes! Old Master Ren, let's go over and offer incense."”Ninth Uncle nodded and made an inviting gesture.
"Good!"
Ren Fa nodded and followed Ninth Uncle to the altar with a heavy heart. They respectfully offered three incense sticks, followed by Ren Tingting, Ah Wei, and the others. After that, Ren Fa invited the grave-digging laborers.
Su Xing He watched from the side and did not say anything. He did not burn any incense either because this matter had more or less nothing to do with Su Xing He.
After offering incense, they had to dig the grave and take the coffin. Next was Ninth Uncle's home ground.
Because the rest of the work was delicate, there were many taboos that Su Xing He did not understand. He had to learn from Ninth Uncle.
"I saw it!"
When the coffin was dug out, a coolie shouted.
"Old Master Ren, shall we go and take a look?"
As he spoke, Ninth Uncle walked forward first. Su Xing He followed behind him.
Old Master Ren's eyes flickered as he followed Ninth Uncle to his father's coffin.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai quickly followed behind Su Xing He while Ren Tingting and Ah Wei followed behind Old Master Ren.
The coolies also took out the tools that they had prepared earlier. A wooden tripod and a thick rope. The group of people tied the rope around the coffin and used the height of the tripod to exert strength.
Slowly, the group of people pulled the entire coffin out of the soil.
Then, two more people ran over with ropes and tied the other side of the coffin. They slowly pulled the coffin out of the hole.
Old Master Ren's coffin was placed on two willow trees that had been prepared in advance. When the coffin was placed flat, it could not fall to the ground. It had to be covered with something.
"Ninth Uncle, Old Master Ren, Old Master Ren's coffin is out!!”shouted the labor leader hired by Old Master Ren.
Ninth Uncle went forward to check first, and Old Master Ren went to the labor leader to give him a portion of the reward.
"Everyone, today is the day when Ren Gongwei and Yong will see the light of day again. All those who are 36, 22, 35, and 48, and are born in the year of the chicken or ox, turn around and leave!!”
After the coffin was placed, Ninth Uncle turned around and said to everyone outside.
Hearing Ninth Uncle's words, the people who were born in the year of the rooster and the year of the ox turned their backs without hesitation.
"The retreat is complete. Everyone, tidy up your clothes and open the door!”Ninth Uncle said seriously.
Ninth Uncle ordered, and the four people around the coffin turned around to open the coffin.
However, before they could do anything, a flock of birds flew up from the forest not far away from the mountain, as if they had been frightened.
Activating his Dharma Eye, Su Xing He saw a large amount of Yin Qi surrounding the coffin. The few strong laborers surrounding the coffin would at least suffer a minor illness when they returned.
"A bird warning is not a good sign!”
Su Xing He's expression turned serious as he quietly came to Ninth Uncle's side and said in a low voice.
"Open the shop!"
At this point, it was impossible to bury the coffin anymore.
Moreover, Ninth Uncle also wanted to confirm whether the corpse in the coffin had decayed after twenty years as he had expected.
With Ninth Uncle's instructions, the four laborers finally found their backbone. They no longer hesitated and were afraid. They worked together to pull out the coffin nails and then lifted the heavy coffin lid.
When the lid of the coffin was lifted, Su Xing He saw a strong wave of resentment rush into the coffin. He could even see a black gas in the coffin with the naked eye.
"Father (Grandfather)! It's unfilial of me to alarm you!”
Ren Fa and Ren Tingting immediately knelt down the moment the coffin lid was opened. Regardless of whether they were sincere or not, they were just putting on an act for outsiders to see.
After Ren Fa shouted, he stood up and asked Ninth Uncle expressionlessly,""Ninth Uncle, my father's corpse really hasn't rotted!”
A trace of fear flashed in Ren Fa's eyes. He thought to himself that Su Xing He was right.
"Old Master Ren, I suggest that Old Master Ren be cremated on the spot. Otherwise, there will be a big problem!”
Ninth Uncle frowned and looked at the corpse of Old Master Ren with a solemn expression. He looked at Ren Fa and expressed his opinion.
"Ninth Uncle, no! My father was most afraid of fire before he died. How could he be cremated? You'd better think of another way!"
Hearing Ninth Uncle's words, Ren Fa quickly shook his head and rejected Ninth Uncle's idea.
What a joke!
Ren Fa was also hoping that Ninth Uncle would find a good place for his father to prosper again. He also hoped that he could have a son when he was still young.
Although he had a daughter, Ren Tingting, and Old Master Ren doted on her, everyone wanted a son to carry on the family line and inherit their family property in this era.
If he cremated his father, wouldn't all of this be for nothing?
"Old Master Ren, if we don't cremate him, Old Master Ren will easily turn into a zombie!!”
Su Xing He added. He was not trying to scare Old Master Ren. It was just that Old Master Ren was showing signs of gaining weight in broad daylight.
It was a f * cking ferocious beast!
"No! Absolutely not cremated! Ninth Uncle, please think of another way. Aren't you Taoist priests of Mao Mountain? There must be a way!"
Old Master Ren's expression was very firm. He did not believe what Su Xing He said about zombies.
"Old Master Ren, how about this, first carry the coffin to the mortuary, I will think of another way.”
Seeing that Ren Fa refused to agree, Ninth Uncle could only suppress the worry in his heart and say helplessly.
For safety reasons, Ninth Uncle could only carry Old Master Ren's coffin to the mortuary first.
Because it was better to be in the mortuary under his nose than in the Ren family. If anything happened, Ninth Uncle could stop it in time.
"Good! If Ninth Uncle has time tomorrow, come to my Ren family as a guest. I have something to discuss with you.”Ren Fa nodded and said to Ninth Uncle before leaving with Ren Tingting.
When he left, Old Master Ren did not forget to give Su Xing He a warning look.
Ah Wei even hated Su Xing He. It was not because of anything else, but because Ren Tingting's attitude towards Su Xing He made him very unhappy.
"Good! Carry the coffin to the mortuary!"
Ah Wei glared at him hatefully and waved his hand to order the coolies to carry the coffin down the mountain.
