I will practice more in the heavens

Chapter 197 Uncle Nine's Doubts

When someone invited Uncle Jiu to drink tea, normally, he would not bring someone there, it would be impolite.

However, it was the first time for him to drink foreign tea, and he was very worried that he would make a fool of himself.

But it was different to invite Li Xing to go with him: after these days of understanding, he already understood that Li Xing was not an outsider who practiced hard in the mountains. He knew a lot of things, but he had no connection with the world of practice before.

Li Xing even knew about the affairs of those foreign lands beyond the borders of the country.

Therefore, he invited Li Xing to drink tea together.

As for whether it would be rude to bring more people, that's okay: it's Ren Fa who wants something from himself, not from him. Would you be willing to ask someone to do something?

"Uncle Jiu, you don't really know much about 'foreign tea'?" Li Xing said.

Hearing this, Uncle Jiu nodded in embarrassment.

"I haven't drank."

In fact, it's not that he has never seen foreign tea. He had seen it when he went to Xiangjiang to do business in the early years.

But he has always been not interested in western goods, and he is even less lazy to contact foreign devils, so he has never drank it. As a result, today, when Ren Fa sent someone to invite him to drink foreign tea, he was stunned.

"Actually, I have never been interested in those things, and I can use the excuse of 'not drinking foreign tea' to ask him to treat guests in another place." Uncle Jiu said: "It's just that Western things have really become more and more popular in recent years. Popularity, although I don't like it, but I also want to find out what's so good about those things, so that young people like it so much."

It turned out that it wasn't that Uncle Jiu didn't have the opportunity to get in touch with "coffee", but that he had never been interested in it.

But it is undeniable that in this vulnerable age, "foreign goods" are really sought after.

Therefore, Uncle Jiu also wanted to experience "foreign tea", so he didn't refuse Ren Fa. As a result, he made a lot of fools in the original book.

"Actually, it's really nothing. It's nothing more than adding some sugar when drinking it. Maybe there are other things that are particular about abroad, but bumpkins like Ren Fa must not understand it." Li Xing shook his head and said.

However, he did not refuse, and went to the town with Uncle Jiu.

On the way, when we talked about foreign goods, Uncle Jiu sighed and said, "I am really disgusted with those things, but I have to admit that matches are easier to use than our fire pockets, and foreign guns and cannons are also better than our guns." The guns are powerful, and even the pedal tricycles are easier to use than our cars, let alone cars!"

When he spoke, his expression was a little unwilling.

But that's how it is in this era.

After hundreds of years of seclusion and isolation, the Central Plains is too weak and has been overtaken in all aspects.

Even Uncle Jiu, who has seen a lot, lacks confidence.

"I think we shouldn't be disgusted." Li Xing shook his head and said, "We'll just learn what's good from them, and we'll make it our own. Can't we?"

These words startled Uncle Jiu.

"Do you also think that things from foreigners are good?"

"Some things are indeed good." Li Xing nodded and said, "However, no matter whether it is good or bad, we must treat it with a normal mind. What we need is confidence in our own nation, not rejection of all foreign things. Just like a car, it is indeed a foreign car now, but it is just that foreigners discovered its existence earlier, and the car itself does not belong to foreigners. As long as we understand the principle and build it, it will be our own car!"

This made Uncle Jiu a little confused.

I have no idea what's going on.

"Let's put it this way!" Li Xing thought for a while, and said again: "Nowadays, 'technology' is popular outside. If it is compared to 'Tao', then foreign cars are the Taoism that foreigners first comprehended. But they have comprehended, but it does not represent us. If we can’t comprehend it, it doesn’t mean we won’t surpass them. In this case, we have to learn, we can’t reject them, we just need to grasp the difference between “teaching foreigners to control foreigners” and “worshiping foreigners”! "

With that said, Uncle Jiu understood.

"So, foreign tea is really worth drinking?"

"It's not necessary." Li Xing shook his head and said, "To tell you the truth, in foreign countries, coffee is just a refreshing drink, that's all. Just like some people in China like to drink honey to refresh you. You should not use 'tea' to compete with it."

Uncle Jiu was taken aback.

"All right!"

The two chatted and soon arrived at the agreed place.

Ren Fa had been waiting there for a long time at this time. After seeing Uncle Jiu, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically and welcomed him to his seat.

As for Li Xing, he regarded him as Uncle Jiu's apprentice, so he didn't say much.

Li Xing didn't gossip with Ren Fa either - he was just invited to accompany Uncle Jiu to prevent him from making a fool of himself, he didn't have any friendship with Ren Fa, and he wasn't interested in chatting too much with this common man.

It's not that Li Xing has practiced for a long time, and he has also become infected with "the great way is ruthless", but that it is unnecessary.

After experiencing a lot and seeing a lot, you will feel disgusted with some things, such as "philistine": Ren Fa is a pure businessman, neither bad nor good.

When Li Xing met this kind of person, he wouldn't meddle in other people's business, but he wouldn't pay attention either.

However, he didn't want to talk, so he finally said: He helped Uncle Jiu deal with the matter of foreign tea, but after the popular heroine "Ren Tingting" appeared in the original book, he couldn't sit still.

Of course, not because of her beauty.

Li Xing, who can turn a blind eye to Diao Chan, what kind of woman can move him?

For so many years in the Three Kingdoms world, do as the Romans do, what kind of woman has you never seen?

The reason why she couldn't sit still was because of Ren Tingting's words: she told her father Ren Fa that Uncle Jiu was a liar, and incidentally said, "Taoists and monks are all liars, you should find a priest."

This is a typical xenophobia, and this is the first time Li Xing has seen it.

Reasonably speaking, even in the Yuan Dynasty when the Han people were the "fourth class", no one dared to insult Taoist culture, let alone the people of the Central Plains who felt inferior.

Only in this era, at this special point in time, can such absurd things happen.

Normally speaking, a girl with a yellow hair doesn't care about what she says unintentionally.

But if such prejudice is not corrected, won't it fuel the flames?

Therefore, Li Xing opened his mouth and said: "You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately! Ignorance is not a sin, but ignorance is still self-righteous, and it often leads to trouble—after all, drinking your father's coffee will let you stay for three months." Don't speak, so as not to cause any harm!"

After speaking, he continued to drink tea, as if he had never spoken at all.

However, Ren Tingting suddenly found that she was speechless.

Her throat is normal and her breathing is normal, but she can't make a sound after opening her mouth, as if her vocal cords were sealed by something.

It's nothing else but "acupuncture".

"This..." For a moment, both Ren Fa and Uncle Jiu were stunned.

None of them thought that this would happen suddenly.

"Well, my daughter is young, if I offend you..." Ren Fa was still quite arrogant, and wanted to smooth things over, but before he finished speaking, he realized that Li Xing had disappeared.

There were only him, his daughter, and Uncle Jiu at the table.

Can't help staring.

"Then, where's the person?"

And Uncle Jiu, just about to speak, suddenly heard Li Xing's voice transmission: "I'm not stingy, but if I sit and watch others insult my culture and don't stop it, I'm an accomplice. I don't want thousands of years later, our descendants will think that only Priests are priests, Taoist priests and monks are liars."

Uncle Jiu fell into deep thought when he heard this.

After a while, he said, "I came alone."

Ren Fa's father and daughter: "???"

……

I have to say that Uncle Jiu seems to be an honest person, but he is very powerful when he has a dark belly. With just one sentence, Ren Faji was so scared that he was restless. Can feel at ease.

As for Ren Tingting, he sent her to a church in the town to see if the priest could do anything.

But I really didn't expect much in my heart.

He is not Ren Tingting's kind of child, but he knows that some things still need to be in awe.

"Don't worry, since it's just 'shut up for three months', it will definitely get better in three months, and it's fine." Uncle Jiu said, "However, if you don't teach, it's the father's fault. You should teach your children more when you have time." .”

Hearing this, Ren Fa repeatedly said yes.

After that, the grave was moved just like in the original book, and the dead body was discovered.

Uncle Jiu suggested burning it, but Ren Fa, who wanted to rely on Fengshui to change his fate, strongly disagreed, so he had to take it back to Yizhuang first and put it away.

"It's strange, that man is also a Feng Shui master, how could he find a place to keep corpses as his tomb?" Uncle Jiu frowned.

Asking Li Xing to listen, he couldn't help asking: "Why, isn't there a 'superficial touch'?"

He also knows a little about Fengshui, and he has read the original book, and he knows the Fengshui of Old Master Ren's cemetery—it is a good cemetery, which was originally reserved for him by a Fengshui master in the town. The family got it by coercion and temptation.

Because of resentment, he tampered with the burial, and this is the story of "Mr. Zombie".

This is actually very weird, and I don't know how big the Ren family's heart is, so they dare to ask someone to bury them when they have stolen their cemetery.

People who are so useless won't take revenge?

But now, looking at Uncle Jiu's expression, something seemed wrong.

"That's what I said to Ren Fa. In fact, it's not a superficial spot at all, but a 'corpse raising ground'! And then buried into a 'vertical burial pit', even if the ancient Captain Mojin saw it, he would have to Walk around, because you will become a zombie!" said Uncle Jiu.

This made Li Xing startled.

"You mean, someone raised a dead body on purpose?"

"The strangest thing is, judging by Ren Fa's appearance, he didn't lie." Uncle Jiu said again: "That is to say, a gentleman who read Feng Shui chose a 'corpse raising place' for himself as a tomb, but was killed The Ren family coerced and lured them away, and then the old man was buried like that, and he was turned into a zombie!"

Having said that, Li Xing knew something was wrong.

Mr. Feng Shui chooses a place for himself. If he doesn’t choose a good place, what is the purpose of choosing a corpse?
Once a zombie is raised, killing the blood relatives first, wouldn't it mean cutting off children and grandchildren?

"Could it be that Mr. Feng Shui is practicing some kind of sorcery, so he wants to turn himself into a zombie and achieve another kind of immortality?" Li Xing asked.

It's hard to say about the pure Ninth Uncle's world, but with so many worlds fused together, anything is possible.

Immortal life in the corpse path is a not unpopular sorcery.

It even goes so far as to say that in the "zombie contract" world view, zombies are originally the blood of the "Pangu clan", and all zombies in ancient and modern China and abroad all come from "generals". A zombie on the surface is actually a god behind the scenes.

In this case, turning yourself into a zombie is also a road to longevity.

"I've also thought about this possibility, but here comes the question, if he is really a practitioner of sorcery, how can Mrs. Ren be able to coerce and lure him away?" Uncle Jiu said.

Even for a decent practitioner like him, it would be trivial to clean up a mere Ren family.

Not to mention a warlock practicing sorcery.

How could such an important cemetery be stolen so easily?
"Then is there such a possibility?" Li Xing thought for a moment, and said, "That is, the cemetery was not extorted at all, but he used his hair to hide it. In fact, there are two layers of coffins - just a little bit of water. Once, but in a place like a corpse farm, it’s okay to use it many times, right?”

As soon as these words came out, Uncle Jiu's eyes lit up immediately.

"That's right, as long as it is not bombarded by sky thunder, the corpse raising place will always be the corpse raising place."

Then, his face suddenly changed, and he said again: "Fellow Daoist, we have to go!"

"Ok?"

"Unless it is a high-level zombie from within the fifth generation of the 'General', most zombies have to suck blood to survive. The zombies raised in a corpse farm, the most evil zombies, even have to suck human blood." Uncle Jiu said: "I have no grievances with that warlock, but if he wants to turn into a zombie to harm people, I will make him disappear!"

After all, he went straight into the house and took out his "Daguan Dao".

Yes, it's not a mahogany sword, but a Daguan knife.

Not only because Li Xing taught him the "Three Swords of Barbarian Kings", Uncle Jiu himself is also a warrior who uses "big swords", especially after learning the "Three Swords", the copper coins and swords are directly passed on to his disciples.

"Then let's go!" Li Xing said.

Then, the two went to the cemetery again.

At this time, in the cemetery, several people covered their faces with black cloths, pouring blood into the abandoned tomb.

Seeing Li Xing and the two coming, they were obviously shocked.

But soon, one of them pulled out a scimitar and rushed towards Li Xing and the other two.

Without further ado, just cut at the vital point.

Li Xing was quite speechless.

As for Uncle Jiu, he was not timid at all, he threw his big knife over, chopped everyone to the ground with a few swipes, held down one and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words were spoken, the other party stopped moving.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that he committed suicide by taking poison.

"This..." Even Li Xing was stunned for a moment.

These dead men are too decisive.

And at the moment when several people committed suicide, on the other side, under the tomb of Old Master Ren, a hand slowly stretched out through the soil, accompanied by a big laugh: "Haha, I finally succeeded!"

But before he finished speaking, he saw a huge "tiger head".
