The years when I opened a coffin shop in the world of Ninth Uncle

rustling...

The continuous light rain added a bit of coldness to the whole city, and there were even fewer pedestrians and vendors on the streets.

On the streets of Chenghuang Temple in the early morning, there was an old lady selling sugar-fried chestnuts, with a big oil umbrella on her head, watching the pilgrims coming in and out of Chenghuang Temple through the pattering rain curtain.

Opened chestnuts are stir-fried together with black iron sand in a large iron pot. Even the drizzle cannot resist the fragrance of chestnuts.

A young man walked out of the Town God's Temple, followed by a pretty girl, who looked very pleasing.

He held the umbrella in one hand, because the umbrella poured slightly towards the girl beside him, and half of his shoulders were soaked by the rain, but he didn't notice it.

"Want to eat?"

Xu Ping turned his head to look at Gu Nianhua beside him.

Gu Nianhua nodded silently.

"Ma'am, how do you sell sugar-fried chestnuts?" Xu Ping asked softly when he walked to the stall and smelled the aroma of chestnuts.

And in his sleeve, a little fox poked its head out, salivating at the chestnuts in the pot.

The auntie had gray hair, a kind face, and said with a smile: "Ten coppers, how about my little girl, do you want some?"

She looked at Gu Nianhua, obviously, this aunt had heard Xu Ping's question just now.

Gu Nianhua said softly, "Brother Xu, it's very cheap."

The aunt changed her face slightly, and then smiled kindly, "This pot will be ready soon, you two wait for a while."

While talking, she took out a piece of oiled paper from the cart beside her and spread it in front of her. After drying off the iron sand with an iron net, she poured the hot, fragrant chestnuts into the oiled paper bag.

By the way, he handed out two and said, "Taste it while it's hot."

The little fox had quick eyes and quick hands, jumped out of Xu Ping's sleeve, snatched it up, stood on the cart, holding chestnuts in both hands, not like a fox, but like a squirrel.

The aunt was taken aback, and said: "The pets raised by Mr. and Miss are really unique."

Xu Ping smiled: "It's just that I was greedy..."

As he said that, he looked at the little fox and said, "How can you eat other people's food casually outside, in case it is poisonous."

As soon as the words fell, the aunt's complexion changed drastically, and her tone became cramped. She pretended to be calm and said: "This gentleman is really good at joking. How can aunt's fried chestnuts be poisonous?"

As soon as her words fell, the little fox who was eating chestnuts suddenly dropped the chestnuts, fell on his back, and began to struggle on the cart.

The aunt's face changed drastically, and she reached out her hand to the bottom of the cart, as if she was about to pull out something, the little fox jumped up suddenly, and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, I was just kidding you."

The aunt lowered her head to cover up the coldness in her eyes, and handed the chestnuts in the paper bag in her hand to Xu Ping, "You two, the fried chestnuts you want are ten coppers."

Smelling the fragrance in the air, Xu Ping suddenly sneered and said, "Chestnuts are very fragrant, so they must be non-poisonous, but the paper bag containing chestnuts is hard to say."

"Go to hell!"

The lady who bought the chestnuts threw the chestnuts violently, and the fragrant fried chestnuts, like a goddess scattering flowers, suddenly exploded in the air, and the yellow and white smoke blocked the sight.

Countless yellow chestnuts soaked in venom were shot in the air in all directions, but when they approached Xu Ping, they were all bounced back.

When the smoke dissipated, the aunt who was holding the thorn in her hands had already softened to the ground, her face was purple, and her body was covered with chestnuts.

Gu Nianhua asked: "Brother Xu, why did you kill him? Didn't you catch him and question him?"

Xu Ping shook his head and looked around: "There's nothing to ask. It's the group of Dongying ninjas. It seems that they have already set their sights on the Temple of the City God."

Gu Nianhua said in surprise: "But recently, the elders and heads of all sects and factions will gather here."

Xu Ping looked at Gu Nianhua and said with a smile, "So... I'm just wondering if these ninjas dare to come."

It was drizzling, and the two left the Temple of the City God holding an umbrella. After they left, the body of the lady who bought the chestnuts was soon discovered by others.

But the person who found the aunt's body didn't say anything, just glanced secretly at the Town God's Temple, quickly stuffed her body under the wagon that was frying chestnuts, and pushed the wagon away.

……

Inside the gazebo.

"The number of cultivators in the city is increasing day by day, especially in the past two days, the increase is visible to the naked eye, and the friction between us and these practitioners has also occurred more frequently." Yamamoto Shixian reported to the people in front of him.

The three Tianren are all there in the gazebo.

Tokugawa Nogami has hardly gone out since the last time he suffered a loss, and the tall female samurai listened most carefully.

"How do the ninjas who come into contact with those practitioners give feedback, and how is their strength?" the female warrior asked.

Her name is Muto Hideo.

Although the status of Dongying women is not high, she has a special status here, so before the three Tianren asked, she asked herself.

Yamamoto was not displeased, and replied directly: "We still took advantage of the contact with practitioners, but it is also possible that we have not come into contact with their real masters."

Saying that, Yamamoto looked at Takeshi Kato with a vague look.

The latter obviously also noticed his eyes, and his face was a little ugly.

And Xuanshi Jingong took over the words, "Miss Muto, it can be said that so many practitioners have entered Qicheng now, which can be said to be what we expected, and there is nothing to worry about. The only problem now is, what about the support of the empire?" Is it time?"

Although they have a lot of Ninja here now, a total of eight or nine thousand, but in a big city like Qicheng, it seems like a drop in the bucket, not to mention, this is someone else's home field.

Hideo Muto murmured: "The empire is not prepared enough now, and it can't give much help. After all, we still have to consider the official side. We can't do too much or be too obvious."

"Is that so..."

Xuanshi Shengong pondered for a moment, and said: "I suggest that we temporarily concentrate our efforts to carry out point-to-point assassinations of these practitioners in Qicheng City, and preemptively strike when they are not gathered together."

"Report~"

A ninja shouted from outside the gazebo, "The secret sentry who was staring at the Chenghuang Temple has been killed, and the murderer is not yet known."

Everyone was stunned, only Takeshi Kato waved his hand, and then said to everyone: "I agree with Jingu's point of view just now, this Town God's Temple is one of their hiding places, and those who killed my disciples are hiding in Town God's Temple."

No one has any objections. At this time, if there are still people who want to stop Kato Takeshi from avenging his disciples, they should block them at the gunpoint.

When everyone was silent, Ishida Ghost suddenly said: "Let me remind you, don't underestimate these practitioners."

Everyone was puzzled and turned to look at him.

And Ishida Ghost looked at the crowd, fixed his eyes on the female warrior, and said, "Have you forgotten our plan..."

Mu Tengxiu subconsciously said: "Use the northeast region as an introduction to attract practitioners from this land one after another, and stand in a stalemate with them, win some, suppress some, and destroy some, paving the way for the big plan in advance."

Ishida Ghost said: "So at this time, it is time for the group we wooed to show their sincerity. There is a word in this place, which is called the name certificate."

Xuanshi Shen Gong also said suddenly: "The plan to create gods has entered a critical period. As long as we survive this period of time, we will have great success, and now these people just have nothing to do."

The person in charge of the tent scene happened to be his disciple Teng Shu Naoto, so he was very clear about this situation.

"Will they be obedient?" Takeshi Kato was skeptical.

Ishida Ghost laughed and said: "Of course they will be obedient. After all, if they want to fulfill that impossible wish, they can only choose to cooperate with us unconditionally."

"As for commanding them to work for us, all we need is a piece of cake." Xuanshi Shengong also smiled.

When Tokugawa Nogami heard that he was making them fight each other, he immediately became interested.

"Master, Master Jingu, Master Kato, why don't you leave this matter to me?"

He still remembered the embarrassment of being besieged by Uncle Jiu and others. Now that he had the opportunity to get back to this place, he certainly couldn't miss it.

Ishida Ghost was the first to say: "You can't do it alone, it's better..."

He looked at Hideo Muto, and said softly, "Miss Muto can be together, I believe in Miss Muto's stability."

Facing Tian Ren's words, Muto Hideko would not refuse, and said loudly: "I will take orders."

And Tokugawa Nogami next to him was not displeased, after all, it was his master's suggestion, but he just looked at Muto Hideo next to him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Judging from that night's experience, the outside world is no longer the time for them to do whatever they want.

Who will die next!
……

Uncle Jiu is in the City God Temple, receiving elders from various sects.

Except for a few sect leaders who came forward, the other sects basically sent out their elders, just like Dinghu Zhenren from Maoshan and Zhang Huairen from Longhushan.

Dinghu Zhenren, Zhang Huairen, and a group of elders were drinking tea behind the Town God's Temple to reminisce and discuss their respective discoveries.

And Uncle Nine arranged it in the front hall, and received people from various sects at the same time.

They are mainly the leaders of various sects. After all, this place is only for discussing plans, there should not be too many people, and this place has already been targeted by the ninja.

"Zhang Daochang, the last time we parted ways in Nanyue Province, you didn't get reprimanded by the Heavenly Master when you went back, didn't you?" Master Dinghu was joking, while Wen Cai was pouring tea for the two of them.

Daoist Zhang glared at him, and said, "Brother Dinghu, are you happy, are you still thinking about this?"

Last time he didn't know Mount Tai, and mistakenly thought that Dinghu Zhenren was the leader of the White Lotus Sect, and almost killed a good person by mistake. Now that he is mentioned by the other party, he naturally feels ashamed.

He changed the subject and asked, "Hey, why didn't you see Mr. Xu? According to your apprentice, isn't he right here?"

Dinghu real person said: "I heard from my incompetent apprentice that he went out early in the morning and should come back at night."

Hearing what he said, Daoist Zhang hurriedly said: "Hey, since you think your apprentice is useless, how about letting him switch to my Longhu Mountain..."

"Go! Go! Go……"

Master Dinghu put down the teacup in his hand, and shouted: "If you dare to say one more word, I will start scolding you."

Regardless of cultivation base and character, just being able to get acquainted with Xu Ping and form a deep friendship, this is already a number of sects, one cannot envy.

What's more, both Longhu Mountain and Maoshan are related in the underworld, and they know what Xu Ping has done in the underworld.

Otherwise, do you really think that ordinary people can live in Chenghuang Temple at will, and use the Yin God as a bodyguard?

Daoist Zhang knew Dinghu Daoist would be like this, so he laughed loudly and said, "You are in a hurry to say a few words about Daoist."

At the same time, Hu Qing'er brought two old women to the Temple of the City God.

One of the old women said: "Miss, according to our findings, Tai Nai is likely to be in Qicheng, but why did she suddenly go to Qicheng? I think finding Tai Nai is our top priority."

Hu Qing'er learned from other practitioners that the practitioners in Qicheng would discuss matters in the Temple of the City God, and it was led by Uncle Jiu, so she wanted to come over immediately, which aroused the dissatisfaction of other people in Wanghaitang.

Hu Qing'er glanced at her, and said with a light smile: "Why, do you think that there is no more grandma in my mind, and now that so many practitioners are in Chenghuang Temple, is there a better place to inquire about news than here?"

The two old women were speechless, then Hu Qing'er entered the Town God's Temple and saw Uncle Jiu who was busy in the front hall.

"Ninth Uncle."

Hu Qing'er smiled with a clear voice.

Uncle Jiu looked back and found that it was her, with a smile all over his face. At the same time, he asked curiously: "Aren't you looking for Mrs. Hu Santai in Liaobei City? Why did you come to Qicheng?"

Hu Qing'er said: "I think Tai Nai should also come here, so I wanted to find out. I just heard that Uncle Jiu is here, so I came here first. I don't know if you have heard about Tai Nai."

Uncle Jiu pondered and said, "I haven't seen this before, but I can help you ask."

While talking, I saw two people coming together, one is an elder from Xingyimen, and the other is Master Yongjue from Lingyin Temple.

After Hu Qing'er described Hu Santai's milk, Master Yongjue said: "Amitabha, the poor monk seems to have seen the person you mentioned, but..."

When he was talking, he looked at Uncle Jiu, as if he was hesitating, wondering whether he should say it or not.

When several people saw him like this, they all looked curious.

"Master Yongjue, if you have something to say, you might as well speak it out. Although Qing'er is young, she can understand it clearly."

Hearing what Hu Qing'er said, Master Yongjue stopped hesitating and said directly: "The poor monk seems to have seen the person you mentioned. He was the one who followed the Dongpu Renren and attacked us when we entered the city."

When Hu Qing'er and the two old women behind her heard this, their expressions changed instantly, and the girl even shouted loudly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, I am too grandma and I will never join forces with these ninjas."

"Yes!"

"When Grandma was in Wanghaitang, I don't know how many ninjas she killed. How could those beasts be with her?"

Master Yongjue also seemed to know that the few people in front of him would have such a big reaction, and said: "The poor monk just told a few benefactors what the poor monk saw, maybe what the poor monk saw is the same as the person you are looking for. , maybe it’s not the same one.”

Uncle Jiu also comforted: "Perhaps you really made a mistake. I think you might as well stay here and listen to more people's opinions later."

At this moment, Hu Qing'er was in such a state of confusion that she had no choice but to nod her head.
