Chapter 356 Simu and His Friends Arrive
Chapter 356: Simu and the others arrive
According to Chinese folklore, the seventh month of the lunar calendar is the Ghost Month, and the fifteenth day of the seventh month is the Zhongyuan Festival, also known as the Ghost Festival, which is the day when the gates of hell are opened.
Those homeless ghosts will be escorted by the ghost messengers from the underworld to receive alms from the living world.
The general custom is to light water lanterns, burn paper clothes or water cloths on this night, and invite monks to chant sutras to help the dead souls escape from suffering as soon as possible.
In addition to the traditional ancestor worship on this day, the residents of Renjia Town will also invite a troupe to perform operas. Of course, the operas performed on this night are not for people to watch, but for the ghosts who come up from the underworld to play.
And yesterday was the Zhongyuan Festival, and the stupid Wencai ran to the stage to compete with the ghosts for the show. Originally, Jiu Shu asked Qiu Sheng to go in and save Wencai, so that Wencai would not go to the eighteen levels of hell with those ghosts. Who knew that they were confused by the female ghost and fixed the ghost messenger who was guarding the ghosts, causing the ghosts guarded by the ghost messenger to escape.
This is a big mess. Once so many ghosts stay in the world, it will cause a disaster.
The four ghosts wanted to send Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai to the eighteen levels of hell on the spot. Finally, under the bribe of Uncle Jiu, who loves his disciples, they agreed to let Uncle Jiu catch the escaped ghosts within a limited time and temporarily let Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai go.
After the ghosts left, Uncle Jiu knew that he could not complete the task within the deadline by himself, so he sent a message by Linghe. Ask for help from the Maoshan disciples.
When Hao Shuai listened to Uncle Jiu's story, he understood that this was the plot of "Zombie Supreme". He knew that the ghost catching task was a small problem, and the big trouble was Uncle Jiu's senior brother, his own master uncle Shi Jian.
As Uncle Jiu's senior brother, Shi Jian is strong in Taoism. In addition, he practices the lightning thunder fist and wooden stakes, which are good at killing, which makes him sit firmly on the throne of the first master among his peers.
In the movie, if it weren't for Shi Jian's carelessness and Uncle Jiu's aura as the protagonist, it's hard to say who will win in the end!
After Hao Shuai knew that this was the plot of "Zombie Supreme", he planned not to interfere with the plot and let it develop, so that he could come up with the idea of "Lightning Thunder Fist" later.
Lightning Thunder Fist can make oneself use the power of thunder and lightning, plus it's so cool when it's done, Hao Shuai has no reason not to be jealous.
As early as before, after becoming a disciple, Hao Shuai had asked Uncle Jiu if he knew Lightning Thunder Fist, but unfortunately Uncle Jiu said that this skill was invented by the eldest brother Shi Jian himself and was not a kind of Maoshan technique, which made Hao Shuai disappointed.
Now Shi Jian has come to the door himself, and Hao Shuai has already planned how to hit Shi Jian with a club.
"By the way, where are Qiu Sheng and Wencai?" Hao Shuai sat for a long time, but didn't see Qiu Sheng and Wencai come out, so he asked curiously.
"They are still sleeping in the inner room." Uncle Jiu said a little embarrassedly.
Because they got into trouble last night, well, for Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, they haven't realized how big the trouble is. They played with the beautiful female ghost for half the night and came back at three in the morning. They have slept until now and haven't gotten up yet.
"Master, you just let them do what they want, which has led to the two of them not making progress and accomplishing nothing. In the next period of time, I will be responsible for supervising them."
Hao Shuai said a few words to Uncle Jiu, then picked up a bucket of cold water and walked into the inner room.
"Hua~Hua~"
"Ah~~"
After Hao Shuai entered, he poured a whole bucket of cold water directly on Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai who were sleeping soundly. The two jumped up immediately and cursed: "Which bastard dares to mess with us?!"
"I poured the water! Do you have any objections?" Hao Shuai said coldly.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai also saw Hao Shuai standing by the bed, and immediately flattered: "How dare we, how dare we, the water is poured well! This is the encouragement of our senior brother!"
"Put on your clothes and come out!" Hao Shuai left a word and went back to the hall to wait for them.
...
In the hall of the charity cemetery
Looking at Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai standing in front of him pretending to be pitiful, Hao Shuai felt that his previous education of them was not deep enough. That's why the two of them are still so stupid.
In the past, when Hao Shuai watched movies, he only thought Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were so funny. When he was in the same situation, he felt that these two people were completely incapable of success and more of a hindrance than success. Only Uncle Jiu could tolerate them and cover for them every time.
"Do you know where you are wrong?" Hao Shuai asked.
"Senior brother~~"
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai did not dare to defend themselves, and could only lower their heads and admit their mistakes.
"You know that Master always values his reputation. This time, for your sake, you actually lost your face and asked for help from the uncles and uncles. Are you worthy of Master?" Hao Shuai scolded.
"Also, you attacked the ghost messenger privately. Do you know what crime this is? This is the same as the previous rebellion, and it is a rebellion against the underworld. You are really capable!"
"It doesn't matter if you seek death, but please don't implicate Master and the innocent people in the town. Do you know that if so many ghosts escape, many people will be contaminated with Yin Qi and become weak and sick?"
...
Hao Shuai scolded one sentence after another, making Qiu Sheng and Wencai lower their heads. The two people who were not bad by nature also realized how serious the trouble they had caused last night was.
Looking at Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, who were full of guilt, Hao Shuai finally said, "As usual, go out and reflect on yourself!"
"Master, I think we should draw some ghost-exorcising talismans and distribute them to the villagers in the town to protect them from the invasion of ghosts." Seeing Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai consciously holding the rope and hanging themselves upside down under the tree, Hao Shuai turned to Uncle Jiu who was silent on the side and said.
Uncle Jiu knew he had neglected it when he heard it, and nodded in agreement.
So for the next two days, Hao Shuai and Uncle Jiu worked all night long and continuously to draw exorcist talismans, and then asked Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai to distribute them to the villagers to prevent them from suffering.
Hao Shuai also asked A Wei to take the security team to notify the villagers door to door, telling them not to go out at night unless they had something to do.
As a result, no ghosts harmed the villagers during these two days.
…
Two days later, the disciples of Maoshan Sect arrived one after another.
The first to come was a woman, a woman that Uncle Jiu was a little scared of, and a junior sister of Uncle Jiu and his friends.
As soon as Hao Shuai saw this funny face, he knew that this should be Zhe Gu, who was a loyal pursuer of Uncle Jiu and still coveted his body.
As an apprentice, should I help my master solve his lifelong problems?
For example, use my own inventory of Ji Le He Huan San to add some ingredients to Uncle Jiu and Zhe Gu's meals to enhance their relationship?
The next person to arrive was Hao Shuai's old acquaintance, Taoist Simu. Looking at the line of customers following behind him, Hao Shuai knew that Simu must have just passed by here while driving corpses, and just happened to catch up with Uncle Jiu's call for help.
After Simu came, he asked about the whole story, looked at Qiu Sheng and Wencai, shook his head helplessly, and at the same time felt lucky that although Jiale looked a little stupid, at least he didn't cause trouble!
The day after Simu came, a sloppy middle-aged man came with two disciples. Seeing this man's rude behavior and the habit of grinding his feet and picking his nose from time to time, Hao Shuai guessed that this should be Uncle Jiu's senior brother Mamadi.
I don't know how these two disciples, who are troublemakers like him, solved the problem of Renjia Village.
Hao Shuai originally planned to ask about it, but after seeing Mamadi's habits, he decisively gave up the idea and reminded himself: When eating, you must not sit at the same table with Mamadi, for fear that you can't help but flip the table.
