Upon hearing this, Wen Cai immediately frowned and said:
“Master, why? I see that they are honest and sincere.”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Nine sneered and said:
"Hehe, sincere? Where did you see that they were sincere?"
Or do you think your eyesight is better than mine?
Upon hearing this, Wencai muttered something under his breath.
Seeing this, Uncle Nine glared fiercely at Wencai and said:
"Hmph! You idiot, you can't see anything at all!"
These three people are not as simple as you think.
Putting everything else aside, their claim that everyone in their village was killed by ghosts is completely false!
Upon hearing this, Wen Cai was stunned, and then said:
"How could that be, Master? They did explain, and they explained it in great detail."
Hearing this, Uncle Nine sneered and said:
"Hehe, it's just that you can't tell."
According to the three of them, the entire village was killed.
How many people live in a village?
Judging from their surnames—Wang, Liu, and Jiang—it's clear that their village is a collection of different people.
Or it could be that a large number of refugees eventually found a place and formed a village.
Such villages have one characteristic: they have a large population.
Because those who survive are basically people with some wealth and enough ruthlessness.
These people will quickly grow, and the village will have at least a hundred households, even if we only consider a minimum of three people per family.
That's three hundred people, and that number is likely more than that.
But use your pig brain and think about it carefully. What kind of monster could kill more than three hundred people and still not be able to kill three of them?
Even as your master, I am not confident that I can handle such a terrifying existence.
And those three managed to escape? What a joke!
Moreover, all three of them possessed martial arts skills, and their strength was at least at the level of internal energy, meaning they were all incredibly vigorous.
In the eyes of those ghosts and monsters, they were like three guiding lights.
Such a bright lamp would be so powerful that even a little ghost might run away from someone with strong blood and energy.
However, the powerful demons saw them; how could they possibly escape this delicious feast!
Hearing this, Wencai was completely dumbfounded.
At this moment, Uncle Nine continued:
"Also, these three people, as I said, are skilled in martial arts, which clearly indicates that they have studied under a master."
Although I, a member of the Maoshan sect, do not care about those who have already acquired skills before entering the sect, this is not something that needs to be hidden.
However, the three of them were clearly hiding their identities.
Moreover, and most importantly, they didn't possess any ghostly aura or malevolent energy.
Even from his facial features, I couldn't discern any sign that he had lost a family member.
These facts are enough to prove that they are all lying to you.
Another point is that the auras of these three people are somewhat chaotic, especially the woman, who carries not only the auras of the two men.
There was also the presence of other people, suggesting that life might not be very good.
And the relationship between the three of them is even less likely to be as you described.
Especially since this Wang Sheng is even less likely to be her fiancé.
What fiancé would watch his woman do such a thing?
In short, you've been scammed.
Hearing this, even Wencai, whose originally optimistic and somewhat naive personality was shaken.
"I...I...Master, I..."
Uncle Nine waved his hand and said:
"In short, this matter ends here. I have no interest in the background of these three people, but they may be after me."
"I don't know the specific reason, but what I'm about to say, you shut up and stay quietly to the side, understand?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Cai nodded, looking listless.
Seeing this, Uncle Nine didn't say anything, but turned around and left, with Wen Cai following closely behind.
Soon, Uncle Nine arrived in the room.
Uncle Nine quickly waved his hand, then took out a silver coin from his pocket and casually tossed it onto the table of the three men.
Suddenly, the silver coins seemed to have been deliberately arranged, and they were stacked up one by one.
At this moment, Uncle Nine spoke up:
"I'm so sorry, gentlemen! My apprentice is a bit dim-witted. I'll return the silver coins he accepted to you."
Also, I don't intend to take on any disciples for this.
Moreover, the three of them are already quite old, and even if they really wanted to cultivate the Tao, it would be too late.
Unless the three of them possess extraordinary talent, it is impossible for them to succeed.
However, this kind of talent is truly unique.
None of the three of you have that talent, so I'm sorry!
Also, I've just returned and there are still some things I haven't taken care of.
"Gentlemen, we'll meet again someday. Wencai, see them out!"
After he finished speaking, Wencai came out carrying the gifts they had given him and said:
"The three of you, let's go!!!"
Chapter 597 Wang Sheng's Ruthlessness!
After leaving the mortuary, Wang Sheng, Liu Ruyan, and Jiang Yi all stared blankly at the things in their hands.
These are all gifts I brought with me.
At this moment, Liu Ruyan said, looking completely bewildered:
"Brother Wang, what should we do next? Uncle Jiu doesn't want to take us in. What should we do?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng's gaze toward the mortuary was filled with coldness.
"Heh! If they don't want me here, there are plenty of other places that will! Let's go, let's leave this place. I want to see if we have any other options besides them!"
After saying that, Wang Sheng led the three of them away into the distance.
Not long after the three left, Uncle Nine opened the door, looked in the direction they had gone, and his eyes showed even more doubt.
"These three people are definitely not good people!"
After saying that, Uncle Nine closed the door.
....................................
On the other side, after getting far away from the mortuary area, Wang Sheng and his two companions stopped.
At this moment, Wang Sheng glanced warily in the direction of the mortuary.
"Brother Wang, what's wrong?"
Wang Sheng said, his expression shifting between light and dark.
"Just now, I felt a familiar sensation, as if it were watching us."
If I'm not mistaken, it's most likely Uncle Nine.
Although I don't know exactly what's going on, there's one thing I'm certain of.
That means Uncle Jiu probably already sensed something was going on, which is why he didn't take us in.
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan frowned and said:
"This...that can't be right. What could Uncle Nine possibly see? Besides, shouldn't our situation be completely hidden by the system?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yi, who was standing to the side, nodded and said:
"Yes! Yes! Brother Wang, Uncle Jiu shouldn't be able to tell what's going on with us, right?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng's expression darkened slightly as he said:
"Things aren't that simple! The system can only block our origins."
However, what's really causing trouble is something else entirely.
Have you forgotten something? Although Uncle Nine's strength isn't particularly great.
However, there is one thing: what Uncle Nine learned was extremely diverse. From catching ghosts and curing zombies to dragon veins and feng shui, and even reading people's faces, these were all his specialties.
Although he couldn't discern our origins, he could glean some information from our facial features.
Don't forget, we are martial arts practitioners, and we practice traditional Chinese martial arts.
This is equivalent to external martial arts, and it is easy to detect.
However, once discovered, it would be equivalent to us already having skills when we became apprentices, which in the eyes of these people is unacceptable.
Moreover, I suspect that our bloodshed along the way might displease Uncle Nine.
After all, the murderous aura and even resentment we exude cannot be hidden from Uncle Nine.
