Chapter 112 Uncle 9’s “Abandoned Disciples”
Chapter 112 Uncle Jiu’s “Abandoned Disciples”
Zhang Susu, who looked at Tan Wenjie tenderly, sat aside.
The situation at Zixia Temple is not complicated.
No money, no people, no ability.
So we need money, people, and teachers.
Money is not a problem, Mr. Tan has plenty of it, and he is willing to spend a lot of money to buy the Seven Star Lamp and the Jade Tripod.
Zhang Susu was beaten to death by a fox spirit. Her soul entered the jade cauldron and recuperated for hundreds of years. Not only did her injuries heal, but her skills even improved. Looking at the fox spirit, it was still injured after hundreds of years.
People, that is, apprentices, need to branch out.
After seeing Uncle Zhang's meager attainments, Zhang Susu realized that if the inheritance could not exceed three generations, Zixia Temple would completely disappear and the inheritance would be cut off.
And helping to find an apprentice also requires the help of Mr. Tan, which still costs money.
Finally, it’s the teacher, and Zhang Susu is enough.
She said, "I can borrow Fei Bao's body to move around temporarily, or I can return to the Jade Cauldron to continue my cultivation."
Return to the Jade Cauldron to cultivate? What good things are you thinking of?
He must have complete control over the use of the Jade Cauldron.
Tan Wenjie's first thought was to cram Xiaohong, the twin girls, the dwarf ghost, Mr. Li and other ghosts into the jade cauldron. Since ghosts can go in to practice, there will be another place for ghosts to "hang up" in the future.
However, this matter should not be rushed. If Zhang Susu knew that his purpose in wanting the Jade Tripod was to raise a little ghost, I am afraid that the current friendly atmosphere between the two sides would be destroyed.
"Let me help you find a body to revive you first."
"All listen to Master Tan~"
It's good for a woman to be obedient, but if she has a fat face and body and moves in an extremely shy manner, it's really disgusting.
When Zhang Susu jumped into the jade tripod, Fei Bao shuddered.
"How does it feel?" Tan Wenjie asked curiously.
He has never been possessed by a ghost.
"What's going on?" Fei Bao asked puzzledly.
"You really don't remember?"
"do not remember."
“It’s okay if you don’t remember.”
Tan Wenjie immediately said, "Go get a carriage to transport the goods."
Feibao: "What are you moving?"
Tan Wenjie waved his hand and said, "Move everything that can be moved. As for those that cannot be moved...move as much as possible. Move whatever you see."
The next day, all the things were moved back to the Tan Mansion, but Tan Wenjie was not in a hurry to see those things. He wanted to recruit disciples for Zixia Temple, and then send Zhang Susu away as soon as she had enough disciples.
"Why don't you help her find a crippled corpse? That would be a fairy tale."
Having said that, it is not easy to find a female corpse.
On this day, Mr. Tan was practicing boxing again.
Maoshan Health Preserving Boxing has finally taken a step forward.
技能：茅山养生拳lv3（0/270），法力上限+5，体力上限+2。
Just as he was having the targets put out so he could practice his gun...fingering, he heard a servant come to report.
"Master, Master, we have found the three bodies of the women you asked me to look for, and their parents are willing to sell them."
"Oh?" Tan Wenjie asked, "What are they like?"
"One is a lady from Phoenix Tower. She has a stomach disease and I heard she is even bleeding green juice."
"Tell me the second one!"
For such a heavy-tasting matter, the answer can be "slightly".
"The second one was a village woman. She was dragged to the field by someone, and the man strangled her to death. A thumb-sized hole was smashed in the back of her head, and her brains were all over the ground."
"And the third one?"
"She was a silly girl from East Village, very simple-minded and silly. Some beggars said that there was a tendon attached to her tongue. She fell ill these two days and her parents were reluctant to buy her medicine, so she died of the illness. I heard that someone wanted to buy the silly girl to marry his son."
"How big?"
"5 is old."
"Let's take her. Give me the money and buy the body back."
The silly girl had just died, and her body was still wearing tattered clothes when it was delivered. However, because they were going to sell it to the family of someone else's dead child for marriage, the silly girl and her husband took care to clean up the body's excrement.
Tan Wenjie squatted down and conducted a simple examination, and then called a coroner to confirm that the death was not caused by poisoning or deliberate killing.
It is better to marry off a stupid girl than to keep her at home and waste food. Therefore, it is possible that her parents deliberately killed their child. Such things are rare but not uncommon.
"This child is not dead, but her soul was scared away by a serious illness. I calculated that she and I are destined to be together, and she can still be saved." Tan Wenjie said to the silly girl's parents, "I'll buy the child."
The couple took the money and were overjoyed: "It's her blessing that Mr. Tan can buy a stupid girl."
"But if you take the money, the child will no longer be yours."
"Don't worry, I won't get involved!"
The two left happily. The money was enough to raise their son, so why bother about a silly daughter? Tan Wenjie then walked towards the Jade Tripod and knocked gently.
"How about the body?"
Zhang Susu's voice came: "You are a little too young."
Nonsense, I just deliberately picked someone younger, otherwise you would always be thinking of giving yourself to her.
The images of Fei Bao and Zhang Susu are linked together and have been deeply engraved in Tan Wenjie's mind. Whenever he sees Fei Bao, he will think of Zhang Susu.
Seeing fat people makes one think of simple things.
Moreover, Zhang Susu is much inferior to Bai Rourou. He has to arrange time to play in the qualifying matches, and he is very busy. One more Zhang Susu won't make much difference, and one less will not make much difference. There is no need for Mr. Tan to sacrifice his looks.
It would be better to let it be a simple fighter.
Tan Wenjie said: "Since you are young, you have enough time to work hard for the development of Zixia Temple."
"Well, what you said is right, sir."
A puff of white smoke entered the body of the stupid girl, and then the already cold corpse suddenly blinked and stood up.
The little girl didn't look stupid at all, but it was really strange to see the temperament of a woman from hundreds of years ago in a 5-year-old child.
"Mr. Tan~"
"Senior Grandmaster."
"Just call me Susu. Can I call you Brother Jie?"
You're pretending to be young, right?
"of course can!"
During the days when Zixia Temple was being rebuilt, Zhang Susu stayed in the Tan Mansion temporarily. Her soul and body had not yet merged. As for whether she chose to merge into the corpse of the foolish girl and live a new life, or wait until Zixia Temple had trained a few outstanding disciples before returning to the underworld, it was not something Tan Wenjie could control.
Ultimately, it's because she's not good-looking enough. If it was Nie Xiaoqian, Mr. Tan would have at least had a love story between a human and a ghost, so there's no need to be so picky.
On this day, Tan Wenjie was practicing with the Sword Finger Semi-Automatic Target Shooting Rifle.
Zhang Susu came over and said, "Brother Jie, I have already selected a few disciples to inherit the Zixia Temple."
Tan Wenjie: "Really? Go and have a look. I am considered an elder after all."
He shamelessly took advantage of the situation and got himself the identity of the deputy head of Zixia Temple, so that when Zhang Susu taught a disciple, he could legitimately practice the Zixia mental method.
"How many did you choose in total?"
"There are four with good qualifications."
"so much?"
"Yes."
As he was speaking, Tan Wenjie saw the four extremely talented disciples selected by Zhang Susu.
"Deputy Sect Leader!" They all stood up and greeted him.
The fact that Zhang Susu was able to select these disciples had something to do with the fact that Mr. Tan was nominally the deputy head. Everyone wanted to get a piece of Mr. Tan’s money.
Just look at Fei Bao to see the fine food and drink. He used to be very poor, but now he drives a horse-drawn carriage and runs errands, and is more powerful than the gentry in the town.
"Deputy leader, my name is Xiao Hai, and I'm friends with Fei Bao."
Xiao Hai, who looked a little clumsy, stood up and greeted people, feeling a little reserved.
Looks familiar, it’s Xiao Hai from “Ghost Bite Ghost”.
He is a reliable person. Among Uncle Jiu's many disciples, he ranks second in reliability, the first being Fei Bao.
Then the second one stood up: "My name is Afang."
Ah Fang? Ah Fang in "The Taoist Priest"? Why don't you follow Uncle Jiu? This is not very reliable.
"My name is Axing."
Chang Wei, you said you don’t know martial arts!
This is even more unreliable. He was the only disciple who was killed under Uncle Jiu.
"My name is Xiaoyue, and I'm Xing's childhood sweetheart."
Girl, are you here for love?
These two are exactly the two disciples of Uncle Jiu in "The Exorcist", but there is no Uncle Jiu in Jiuquan Town, and the zombies in the church have been dealt with by Tan Wenjie and Shi Jian.
I didn't expect these people to come to me after going around in circles and join Zixia Temple.
These four people were all Uncle Jiu’s “abandoned disciples”.
Logically speaking, those who were accepted as disciples by Uncle Jiu must have no major problems with their qualifications and character. The fact that Zhang Susu chose them also confirmed this point.
Zhang Susu raised her little face, and indeed she heard her say, "The four of them are very talented, and are rare cultivation geniuses. I have also investigated, and they are all of pure character, and they have no father or mother, so it is just right for them to join Zixia Temple."
Tan Wenjie also nodded seriously: "With these four young masters, Zixia Temple will surely rise again in the spiritual world."
But he didn't think so in his heart.
Damn, is it too late to quit Zixia Temple now?
You need a very strong life to be able to withstand the four of them.
I will take a break for 2 updates today, and will update 7 updates tomorrow. 8 updates is still too difficult for me.
