Chapter 294: Dry Corpse
Uncle Nine nodded, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. It is really gratifying that a person like Chen Chen, who has received a Western education, can still have the attitude he has now.
Anyway, the people he had met before, even those who had returned from studying in the West, didn't believe in these evil things, and kept emphasizing anything, science, everything must be scientific.
The real world where Chen Chen is located is a world where science is paramount, and there are still many things that science cannot explain.
Whether you have met it or not, since there has been a legend, then something must have happened, ghosts and gods, you can't believe it, but it's best to have a state of awe.
Because, sometimes, or some moment, maybe you will encounter some kind of evil and strange thing.
Qiusheng was very clever, and when he saw his master's expression, he immediately laughed and reached out to take the gift from Chen Chen's hand. "Give it to me."
Chen Chen smiled at Qiusheng and handed the gift to Qiusheng. Seeing Qiusheng's movements, Uncle Nine scolded: "Who told you to take it!" ”
Qiusheng laughed, "Master, everyone said that they were here to visit you, and you let others take back the things that they worked so hard to bring back and let others think in their hearts, and the neighbors around them saw it and thought that we were driving them away." And judging by what he is wearing, there is no shortage of money to buy this thing. ”
When Uncle Nine heard this, he felt that there seemed to be a little bit of truth, and after reacting, he glared at Qiusheng, and then said to Chen Chen: "You haven't had lunch yet, have you?" Eat some of the usual meals together. ”
Chen Chen nodded, "Then thank you Uncle Jiu." ”
Walking into the room, Uncle Nine glanced at Qiusheng and Wencai lightly, Qiusheng hurriedly pushed Wencai, and said, "Why don't you go and get the dishes and chopsticks, I don't have any eyes at all." ”
Wen Cai was about to express his dissatisfaction, but inadvertently saw his master's eyes, and immediately lowered his head and ran to get the dishes and chopsticks.
The dishes are very simple, two vegetables and one meat. Chen Chen didn't dislike anything, but picked up the bowl and started eating. Uncle Nine glanced at Chen Chen, and his face did not change.
Uncle Nine is a person who pays attention to food, does not say anything, and attaches great importance to these etiquettes.
After eating, Uncle Nine got up and said, "Go out for a walk with me." ”
Chen Chen nodded and followed behind Uncle Jiu. Walking out of the house and walking on the street, the people who saw Uncle Nine greeted Uncle Nine one after another.
"Uncle Nine."
"Uncle Nine, let's take a walk after dinner."
"Hmm."
"Uncle Nine."
Uncle Nine nodded slightly at the person who greeted him, which undoubtedly reflected Uncle Nine's status in the town.
"What's your name?" Uncle Nine asked.
"The younger generation's surname is Chen, and his name is Xingchen. It's okay for Uncle Nine to call me Xiao Chen. Chen Chen said.
"Xiao Chen, where are you from? How many people are in the family? Uncle Nine asked, as if he was checking his household registration.
Chen Chen didn't care either, and began to make up casually, "The kid just came back from the West, and I'm the only one in the family." ”
Uncle Nine glanced at Chen Chen, nodded slightly, and then asked, "Do you want to learn from a teacher?" What to learn? ”
"I've heard a lot about Uncle Jiu, and dealing with all kinds of evil sects, which I have never encountered before, and I am very curious and have a lot of interest. So I want to learn from a teacher and learn from you, Uncle Nine. Chen Chen said very sincerely.
It is true that Chen Chen has never encountered anything about the evil sect, and he also sincerely wants to learn the Maoshan Taoism of the Ninth Uncle.
Uncle Nine didn't answer Chen Chen immediately, but continued to walk forward, he should be thinking.
Seeing that Uncle Nine didn't continue to ask questions, Chen Chen kept silent and quietly followed behind Uncle Nine......
The night came as scheduled, and after walking around the town for almost a while, I returned to Yizhuang.
"Qiusheng, you and Wencai go and tidy up a room and come out." Uncle Nine spoke.
"Yes, Master." Qiusheng nodded, and pulled Wen to tidy up the room together.
"You wait for Qiu Shengwen to clean up the room, you don't have any relatives in the town, so let's stay here for the time being." After Uncle Nine finished speaking, he walked into the room with his hands behind his back.
Chen Chen glanced at the back of Uncle Jiu, if he wanted to learn the arts, he must first accept a test, after all, Uncle Jiu was an orthodox disciple of Maoshan, and it was impossible to easily teach it to people with unrighteous skills.
Qiusheng and Wencai cleaned up Chen Chen's room, and the two were fighting. "Brother, your room is cleaned up for you."
"Thank you both." Chen Chen thanked him.
"It's fine."
Qiusheng and Wencai left, Chen Chen walked into the room, took a brief look, then washed up and collapsed on the bed and began to rest.
Early in the morning of the second day, Chen Chen woke up and heard a noisy sound. Chen Chen was curious, and walked out quickly to see, in front of the town, surrounded by a large group of people.
Uncle Nine also walked out, and after glancing at Chen Chen, the two walked forward together.
"Let one go, let one go."
The people around saw that it was Uncle Jiu, and hurriedly made a way out. Chen Chen followed behind Uncle Nine and walked forward together.
The first thing to do was a corpse lying on the ground, followed by a gong and a flashlight! When Chen Chen saw the corpse, his brows furrowed, wasn't this the old man Chen Chen met the night before!
There's also a flashlight for him on the ground! But looking at the corpse, Chen Chen couldn't tell at all that this withered corpse turned out to be the old man who beat the night before!
But the flashlights and gongs on the ground confirmed his identity.
When Uncle Nine saw the corpse, his brows furrowed slightly, he squatted in front of the corpse, stretched out his hand and gently pressed on the corpse, back and forth.
There was no blood on the ground, and there were no wounds on the corpse. Uncle Nine lifted the corpse's clothes and frowned a few times.
At this moment, there was a shout, "The security team is coming!" ”
"Get out of the way!"
The crowd dispersed, and a team of security guards dressed in yellow leather and armed with guns came forward.
Uncle Nine stood up and retreated, and Chen Chen also retreated.
The captain of the security team straightened his hat, straightened his belt, and walked up with an invincible attitude. When he saw the corpse, he frowned, squatted in front of the corpse, frowned and looked at it a few times before standing up, "Fellow villagers, please rest assured, this matter is handed over to our security team, and we will definitely be able to find out who killed this old man." ”
The surrounding villagers didn't pay attention to the words of the captain of the security team, and they still talked about it.
The captain of the security team crouched down and picked up the gong, and then picked up the flashlight as well. He didn't understand how to use the flashlight, and he looked down and tinkered.
Suddenly, a ray of light shot out, and the captain of the security team and the surrounding villagers looked at it in amazement.
"Here, you two carry the body back!" The security captain pointed at the two men and shouted, but he was playing with the flashlights in his hands.
