Chapter 244 Mr. Zombie 11

"Besides, Master Ren will be here soon. If we act without his consent and let Master Ren see that Old Master Ren has become unrecognizable, we will not be able to explain to him!"

Ren Yinyin suddenly felt that what his master said made sense, so he stopped talking and took the dishes to the kitchen to wash.

……

By the afternoon, the sun had already set, dyeing the sky golden.

Just then, Wencai came back!

Seeing this, Qiu Sheng hurried forward and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Wencai, why did you come back alone?"

When he arrived at the charity cemetery in the morning, he did not see Wencai. His junior sister told him that Wencai had been sent by the master to find Master Ren.

Wencai's face was filled with a bright smile, and he replied cheerfully, "Master Ren went to a party today and is not at home."

After saying that, he did not forget to raise his hand to wipe the sweat oozing from his forehead.

Ren Yinyin, who was standing by, saw Wencai's expression and couldn't help but feel curious. She asked, "If Master Ren isn't home, why did you come back so late?"

When Wencai heard this, the smile on his face became even more intense, like a fox that stole a chicken.

He scratched his head with his hand and replied with a smile, "Hehehe, I had lunch with Tingting at noon today." His words were filled with joy that was difficult to conceal.

When Wencai thought of the Ren family’s rich and delicious meals and the gentle, beautiful and considerate Tingting, he felt elated.

"Well, you bastard!" Qiu Sheng was immediately furious when he heard this. He stretched out his finger and gently tapped Wencai's forehead, pretending to be angry and said, "We clearly agreed to compete fairly to pursue Tingting, but you ran off to Renjia Town without even informing me and stayed with Tingting all by yourself. You are really treacherous!"

Facing Qiu Sheng's accusations, Wencai only smiled awkwardly and mumbled in explanation, "Oh, I didn't expect Tingting to take the initiative to treat me to lunch... How can I refuse Tingting's kindness?"

After hearing Wencai's words, Uncle Jiu shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly, "Alas, it seems that I won't be able to burn that old man Ren to ashes today!"

Uncle Jiu turned around with a serious expression and shouted to his two apprentices, Wencai and Qiusheng, "Wencai, Qiusheng, quickly go and replace Old Master Ren's coffin with a new one, and then redraw the ink line. Don't make any mistakes!"

"I understand, Master!" Wencai and Qiu Sheng responded in unison, then hurriedly turned around and walked towards where the coffin was placed.

At this moment, Ren Yinyin, who had been following Uncle Jiu closely, showed a trace of worry on her face. She remembered that the coffin had almost failed to contain Old Master Ren last night. She really didn't know what the scene would be like tonight, and whether she could get through it safely.

So, Ren Yinyin said to Uncle Jiu, "Master, I also want to stay in the charity cemetery tonight!"

Uncle Jiu nodded slightly in agreement and instructed, "Well, that's fine. However, I have to take Qiu Sheng to a nearby village to exorcise ghosts, so I'll leave the charity cemetery to you and Wencai. You must be extremely alert and vigilant at all times. Don't let your guard down. Do you understand?"

"I understand, Master!" Ren Yinyin quickly nodded in agreement.

The tablets of the ancestors are also enshrined in this charity cemetery. If they encounter any dangerous situation, they can quickly hide in the ancestral hall for shelter.

If Old Master Ren really escapes, one of them must quickly inform the master, and then the other will go to the Ren family to inform Old Master Ren and Ren Tingting, father and daughter, to take shelter!

……

The night slowly fell to the west like a huge black curtain, and the stars in the sky twinkled like dazzling gems dotted in between.

Ren Yinyin and Wencai waited quietly in the gloomy and silent funeral home. Their task was to keep a close eye on the room where the bodies were kept, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Time passed little by little, and the entire charity cemetery was quiet.

Wencai couldn't bear it any longer and curled up in the corner, holding his worn pillow made of patchwork cloth tightly in his arms, his head dozing off little by little.

Ren Yinyin sat beside an old wooden table, staring at the flickering candlelight on the table in a daze.

The night grew darker and darker. Suddenly, a cool breeze whistled in from the open doorway, causing the candle to sway violently twice, nearly extinguishing it. Startled, Ren Yinyin quickly stretched out her hands to protect the candlestick, while casting a vigilant gaze toward the door.

She held her breath, listening intently to the noise outside. However, aside from the rustling of the wind, there was complete silence, no unusual sounds. After a long moment, once she was certain there was no danger, Ren Yinyin's heart finally settled down.

Sleepiness gradually came over her, and Ren Yinyin felt as if her upper and lower eyelids were stuck with glue, constantly trying to stick together.

She tried hard to open her eyes, but heavy fatigue continued to erode her consciousness.

In the end, it was really hard to resist the invasion of sleepiness, and Ren Yinyin had to support her chin with both hands, and dozed off little by little.

At this moment, a loud "clang" broke the silence of the charity cemetery and woke up Ren Yinyin who was in a dream.

She shuddered, stood up, and looked out the door with bated breath.

Behind her, Wencai turned over, smacking his lips as if he was savoring something, with the corners of his mouth raised, it seemed like he was having a sweet dream again!

"Dong dong dong..."

A heavy and strange beating sound was heard, and Ren Yinyin retreated to Wencai's side, staring outside with one hand pinching Wencai's arm.

After twisting it hard, Wen just let out an "ah" when he saw his junior sister making a gesture to him to shut up.

"What's wrong?" Wencai asked in a low voice.

"Senior brother, listen!" Ren Yinyin also answered in a low voice.

In the yard, there were "dong dong dong" sounds, and something was jumping out.

Only when the sound gradually faded away did Ren Yinyin and Wencai go out to check.

In the morgue, Old Master Ren's coffin was torn into pieces, but it escaped!

"Brother, you go find the master, I'll go to the Ren family!" Ren Yinyin didn't dare to delay, said this, and quickly chased out of the charity cemetery.

Senior brother Qiu Sheng’s bicycle was parked outside the door, which was just right for her to get around.

"Hey, Yinyin..." Before Wencai could react, the little junior sister's shadow disappeared.

"Let's change!" Wencai muttered. Only after saving his sweetheart's life can he take a step further!

However, he also knew that the matter was urgent, so he quickly ran out of the charity cemetery and went to a nearby village to find his master.

Late at night, everything is silent, only a cold moon hangs high in the sky, casting a cool light.

Ren Yinyin hurried along alone, feeling uneasy. She knew that dangers were everywhere in the dark night, so she didn't dare to be careless.

Suddenly, a cool breeze blew, rustling the leaves. Ren Yinyin couldn't help but shudder. He quickly reached out and took out the protective jade talisman hanging around his neck and put it outside.

This jade talisman was her most precious and powerful treasure. If any ghost dared to approach her, it would be repelled by the jade talisman.

Ren Yinyin pedaled his bicycle forward quickly, praying silently in his heart that he could reach Ren's house safely as soon as possible.
