"Perfect! This time, Old Master Ren has a lot of work to do. Wencai alone is definitely not in a hurry. You came just in time.”
Ninth Uncle nodded and said to Qiu Sheng after thinking for a while. He came at the right time.
"Alright, Master. I came here this time to work for you. However, when will Master receive this month's allowance?!”
Qiu Sheng asked with a smile.
Hearing Qiusheng's question, Ninth Uncle's face darkened. He was wondering why Qiusheng would come back to work for no reason. So that was the reason. He was here to ask for money.
"After you're done with Old Master Ren's work, you'll naturally have your allowance this month. Otherwise, you'd better eat dirt this month.”
Ninth Uncle said with a dark face. He thought to himself that he was really embarrassed in front of Junior Brother Su.
"Alright, Master, just wait and see. I'll definitely do it for you!!”
Qiu Sheng said confidently.
Not long after Qiu Sheng came back, Wen Cai also came back after buying vegetables. Then, the two of them went to the kitchen to cook.
In the courtyard, Ninth Uncle and Su Xing He were talking about what they had seen and heard over the years. Some strange and interesting things were said by Ninth Uncle, allowing Su Xing He to peek into a corner of the mortal world experience that Ninth Uncle had personally experienced.
This made Su Xing He sigh!
Ninth Uncle had subdued countless demons in his life. In the end, he established a Taoist temple in the Ren family town to ensure the peace of the area. He was indeed a person of boundless merit.
However, it was also because of this that Ninth Uncle's prestige in the Ren family town was so high that even Old Master Ren had to be respectful on the surface.
As the two of them chatted, it didn't take long for Su Xing He to smell a rich fragrance. There was also a silky fish fragrance.
Su Xing He couldn't help but swallow his saliva. In his heart, he praised Wen Cai's cooking skills. To be able to take in a disciple like Wen Cai, Ninth Uncle would be happy every year.
"Master, Little Uncle-Master's food is ready!”
Qiu Sheng's voice was heard. Ninth Uncle and Su Xing He walked to the kitchen at the same time.
Afternoon, three o'clock.
In the mortuary, Su Xinghe woke up from his afternoon nap and was practicing boxing in the courtyard.
"Help! Help! Ninth Uncle!"
A woodcutter's face was filled with fear. He hurriedly ran to the mortuary and shouted for Ninth Uncle to save him.
Hearing the shouts outside the mortuary, Su Xing He hurried to the door. Hearing the noise, Ninth Uncle also rushed out of the room.
Su Xing He only felt his vision blur, and in the next moment, he saw Ninth Uncle already scuttling out of the door and walking to the side of the woodcutter.
Su Xing He was shocked in his heart. Ninth Uncle's single move had let Su Xing He know the gap between him and Ninth Uncle.
"Ninth…Ninth Uncle…Help…Help!”
? When he saw Ninth Uncle, the woodcutter said in a panicked tone.
"What's wrong? Don't be anxious!"
Hearing the woodcutter's incoherent words, Ninth Uncle frowned slightly. He supported the woodcutter's back with his palm, and a cool aura surged into the woodcutter's body. The woodcutter quickly calmed down.
At this moment, Su Xing He had also arrived.
"Ninth Uncle, there's a monster at the back of the mountain!”
The woodcutter said loudly, and a hint of fear could be seen in his eyes.
"What is it? There's a demon!"
Ninth Uncle's eyes suddenly widened as he grabbed the woodcutter's arm. There was some surprise in his tone, but Su Xing He could hear the doubt in it.
" It can't be a wild beast, right?!"
Hearing the woodcutter's words, Su Xing He's first thought was to think of that black gorilla that had become a spirit.
However, that gorilla was a demon that had become a spirit after all. If this woodcutter encountered that gorilla, Su Xing He did not believe that he could escape safely, so he asked with doubt.
"Impossible!"
"I clearly saw a big chimpanzee that was more than three meters tall. How can an ordinary chimpanzee be so big? If it's not a demon, what is it?”
Being questioned by Su Xing He, the woodcutter was like a chicken whose feathers had been stepped on. He instantly exploded and retorted.
Looking at the way the woodcutter stomped his feet, Su Xing He's eyes flashed with a bright light.
"Ninth Uncle, you have to subdue that big demon! My entire family depends on me to chop firewood and sell it for money. With that demon at the back of the mountain, I don't dare to go! Ninth Uncle, save me!"
The woodcutter sobbed and even pretended to kneel down to Ninth Uncle.
"Alright, Woodcutter Wang, I'll definitely subdue that black gorilla in the back mountain.”
Ninth Uncle was soft-hearted to begin with. Seeing the woodcutter like this, he didn't think much and agreed.
"Thank you, Ninth Uncle!”
The woodcutter thanked him repeatedly.
As he spoke, Ninth Uncle was about to pack his things and go to the back of the mountain to subdue the demon when Su Xing He took a step forward.
"Senior Brother, let me make a trip! While you are busy with Old Master Ren's matters, leave this little gorilla demon to me!!”
Su Xing He said. Ninth Uncle's eyes lit up and he hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble Junior Brother Su!”
"Wang Woodcutter, this is my junior brother. His paths, skills, and divine arts are vast. I still have other matters to attend to, so I'll let my junior brother come with you!!”
"This…alright!"
Wang Woodcutter looked at Ninth Uncle and then at Su Xing He. He hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
"Junior Brother, wait a moment. I'll get Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai to follow you.!”
Ninth Uncle thought for a moment and said. He could vaguely sense Su Xing He's strength, but he didn't know his true skills. Therefore, he wanted Qiu Sheng and the others to follow him. It was good to take care of him.
" Thank you, Senior Brother!!"
……………
The red sun was setting in the west, and the clouds hung down from the sky.
In the back mountain of the Ren family town, a group of about three to four people walked into a quiet path.
The person in the lead was dressed in a green robe. His temperament was like an immortal, not like a mortal. This person was Su Xing He, who had come to the back of the mountain to subdue the demons.
Besides that woodcutter, Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng followed Su Xing He over.
Standing on a small high spot at the back of the mountain, he looked down at the Ren family town at the foot of the mountain. The smoke rising from the chimneys gave off a feeling of peace.
The birds sang under the setting sun, and the croaks of frogs echoed in the deep wilderness. The back of the mountain was quiet.
" How long until Woodcutter Wang arrives?"
Wen Cai had a bitter look on his face. Climbing the mountain with his fragile body had exhausted him.
Wen Cai's aptitude was dull, and he wasn't as talented as Qiu Sheng when it came to practicing the Maoshan martial arts. In terms of physical fitness, he wasn't even as strong as a woodcutter.
"Ai, Wen Cai, we're almost there. It's not far from the mountainside? That's where I met that gorilla monster!!”
? Wang Woodcutter swallowed his saliva, his eyes looking at the mountainside not far away. His legs were shaking, and his tone was filled with fear.
"I've gotten rid of you!"
" Uncle-Master, wait for us!!"
Su Xing He indicated for the woodcutter to lead the way. He followed behind while Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai could only bitterly hold the things to subdue the demons.
Soon, Su Xing He and the other three arrived at the mountainside. Su Xing He indeed saw a cave that was half-covered by shrubs.
Su Xing He glanced at the bushes outside the cave. There were broken branches on the ground and some traces of cover.
Su Xing He's eyes flashed, and his heart skipped a beat. He glanced at the woodcutter without leaving a trace, but he saw a hint of greed flash in the woodcutter's eyes as he looked at the cave.
There was indeed a problem!
From the start, Su Xing He felt that the woodcutter didn't look like a normal woodcutter. There were no traces of him chopping wood all year round.
