please call me ninth uncle

Chapter 98 Buy yourself a coffin!
"Ok?"

As soon as he stepped over the threshold, Lin Jiu was startled.

I saw a group of about seven or eight handsome people waiting under the stairs below, all looking at an old man standing in the middle with smiles on their faces.

"Forehead……"

The two sides looked at each other, both a little dazed.

Lin Jiu didn't understand, who is the leader, the surrounding people seem to be local gentry, but, are they here to see him off?
Hachi and the others were a little astonished. Looking at the large and small bags of Lin Jiu, master and apprentice, it seemed that they were going to travel far away.

"Uncle Jiu, are you going on a long trip?"

Among the crowd, a handsome man asked each other with a surprised expression on his face.

"Ok?"

Seeing this, Lin Jiu frowned, didn't these people come to see him off?
that……

"Yes."

At this time, after hearing the words, Wencai on the side nodded, then turned to look at the crowd and said:
"However, why did you guys come here together? Are you here to see us off?"

"idiot!"

Qiu Sheng patted Wen Cai on the head, and said angrily:

"Send you off, see you off, can't you tell that they don't even know that we are leaving Jiuquan Town?"

Immediately, he looked at the people below, and said suspiciously:

"I said, don't you people have encountered something again, so you want to come to my master for help?"

"Haha, it's like this..."

Seeing Qiusheng's unkind expression, the dog legs beside Hachiko hurriedly yelled, and introduced:

"The person next to me with extraordinary bearing and graceful demeanor is our new mayor of Jiuquan Town - Hachiko."

Immediately, he approached Hachiko and introduced in a low voice:

"Hachi, the one-eyebrow over there is Lin Jiu, and the two beside him are his apprentices."

"One word eyebrow..."

Lin Jiu stood there silently, but couldn't help looking at the dog leg with a mole on the corner of his mouth.

This yin-ridden guy will end sooner or later.

"Ah, so it turns out that this is Uncle Jiu in person. This demeanor is really extraordinary."

The Hachiko came out with enthusiasm, and said to Lin Jiu with admiration:

"Uncle Ninth, I have also heard about your superb method of cutting out zombies. I heard that you are a disciple of Maoshan. You are really a master of Taoism."

"Speak up if you have something to say."

Lin Jiu said indifferently, he didn't listen to his flattery at all.

"Ha ha……"

Hachiko didn't feel embarrassed either, and his smile remained unchanged:
"Uncle Jiu is like this. Maybe you see me as a face-to-face student. In fact, I am also from Jiuquan Town. I just left here many years ago and went to the provincial capital to work hard...

No, when people are old, they always have to return to their roots, so I just came back not long ago. "

Hearing this, although Lin Jiu's face was expressionless, there was a gleam of light in his eyes, and he secretly said:

"When I came back not long ago, I got rid of these squires and took the position of mayor. This old guy seems to have a lot of tricks."

Immediately, he looked at the other person's face secretly, and shook his head secretly:
"I was poor in my early years, with lofty ambitions, middle-aged and rich, with the image of swallowing a whale, but unfortunately... my heart is too dark, and I have missed the evil way. Now my brows are red, and the sky is covered with black clouds...

This is acting too unscrupulously, causing many families to be ruined, and their children to be extinct, so that their own fate is ruined... It is unknown in old age. "

At this time, I saw Bagong stroking his beard and saying:

"Afterwards, I heard about Uncle Nine's reputation, so I wanted to come to see you. It's just that I just came back and was busy with work, so I haven't had much time. Today I just have time, so..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qiu Sheng on the side interrupted impatiently:
"My master said it, if you have something to say, don't gossip about it, so as not to delay our departure time."

For these squires in this town, he really didn't like them. When the master was stigmatized, he didn't see these people come out to say a word. Now he didn't know what happened, but he ran over again.

As for the old man who appeared out of nowhere, he seemed to be very enthusiastic, but he felt that it was fake from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't believe what the other party said at all.

He even had an intuition that the old man might have something to do with the rumors that spread before that made the master's reputation dirty.

"Hey, Qiusheng, you are going too far. We are talking to your master, but you, a junior, keep interrupting, and even speak rudely to Hachiko, an elder. It is too much."

The rich man beside Hachiko said with some dissatisfaction.

"Yeah yeah."

"Qiusheng, you are too careless."

For a while, many squires around him spoke up.

"Hey, don't argue with the younger generation. You are young, ignorant, and have an aggressive temper. This is normal."

Hachiko turned around and waved his hands, still with a smile on his face, he seemed to be extremely magnanimous, and he didn't care about Qiusheng's words at all.

"Don't care about the juniors, I really treat you as something."

Lin Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly, and after listening to the other party's witty words for a long time, he probably already understood that these people came to him for nothing more than asking for something.

It's just... It's also a big face.

Although he, Lin Jiu, is kind-hearted and has his own firm principles of cultivation to kill ghosts and get rid of the dead, this does not mean that he is a holy mother, who greets people with a smile and licks his face to help when he is looked down upon!

Immediately, while walking down, he tilted his head to look at Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, and ordered:

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, set off quickly, otherwise the weather won't be good if you can't find the trees for shade by noon."

"Yes, Master."

Hearing this, Qiu Sheng nodded quickly and followed behind Lin Jiu, paying extra attention to the squires beside him.

He was afraid that his master's heart would be soft, and he would spend his heart and energy on these 'white-eyed wolves'.

Wen Cai didn't understand the situation for a long time, but he did what the master said, and naturally followed behind obediently.

"Eh……?"

On the lower side, everyone was taken aback, no, what does Lin Jiu mean?
"no……"

Hachiko was also a little dumbfounded, why didn't Lin Jiu follow the routine?
Don't you usually have to brag before you can talk about business?

Is this guy really so straightforward?If you want to be blunt, do you really have to be blunt, or you will leave?
"Hey, Uncle Nine and so on."

Immediately, he hurriedly called Lin Jiu to stop, and stopped playing the game:

"Uncle Jiu is like this, we are here to ask you for help."

Having said that, his expression became serious:

"There have been strange things happening in the town recently. Many strong men have had their hearts gouged out. I wonder if there is something dirty inside, so I want to ask Uncle Jiu to help."

Hearing this, Lin Jiu paused:
"Pull out the heart?"

Could it be that the molting ghost did it?
This is also reasonable. The corpse of the old man was found in the small courtyard on the edge of the town that day, which already showed that Wen Cai was not the first victim.

"That's right, Uncle Jiu, look, why don't you leave now, and let's talk about this strange matter after you solve it?"

Hachiko's expression seemed to be a little worried, and the other squires on the side nodded again and again:

"That's right, Uncle Jiu, if this strange incident is not dealt with, how many more victims will appear in the town!"

All of them looked heavy, and their tone contained anxiety, as if they seemed so worried.

"Hey~~"

Seeing you, Lin Jiu couldn't help but sneered, these guys, when will they worry about other people?

All of them are more or less stained with resentment, their hands are not very clean, and the brows are even more lifeless, I am afraid that time is running out.

"Uncle Jiu, why are you...why are you laughing?"

Hachiko frowned, and he found that he seemed to be a little unable to understand the one-word brow in front of him.

He has been in the mall for so many years, and he has met many people or things, but he has never met anyone like Lin Jiu.

"It's nothing, I suddenly remembered a joke."

Lin Jiu looked at Hachiko with a half-smile, looked at several people gathered around him, shook his head, and walked along the street.

He left behind a faint voice that made everyone present fearful and shocked:

"If you have the right, you will get more help than if you have lost the right. You should stop struggling in vain and buy yourself a coffin..."

"Buy yourself a coffin!!"

These words, as if there seemed to be inexplicable power, weighed down everyone's hearts, and seemed to be reverberating non-stop.
