Chapter 133: 2 Short, 1 Long
Chapter 133: 2 Short, 1 Long
If Chizuru were here, she would definitely complain, "This female ghost is also someone who judges by appearance!"
She actually looked down on Ah Dong.
"Thank you, but I'm not from any brothel," Dong Xiaoyu said speechlessly.
The sound was like a chilling wind, sending shivers down Qiu Sheng's spine.
Qiu Sheng, however, was frozen in place, unable to move, because this time he truly heard it.
She even countered that he wasn't from the brothel.
........................
When Ah Dong saw Qiu Sheng's appearance, he narrowed his eyes, as if scrutinizing something: "You heard it again? Could it be that Tai Xu came out of the brothel?"
"No, I really heard it."
"Understood." A-Dong nodded, then stared at the grave, took out a talisman, and flashed it across his eyes as if by magic, instantly opening his Yin Eyes.
In his eyes, the female ghost Dong Xiaoyu in the tomb was like a phantom hidden in the darkness, appearing and disappearing.
Dong Xiaoyu looked at A Dong in surprise, not expecting that this seemingly ordinary Taoist priest would have such supernatural powers.
"So it really is true. But I offered you incense, why didn't you say thank you?" A-Dong looked at the female ghost Dong Xiaoyu with dissatisfaction, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.
Dong Xiaoyu curled her lip, looking disdainful.
Your looks aren't that great.
How could she possibly be interested in you?
"Hmph! So you're just a wanton female ghost. I advise you not to have any improper thoughts, otherwise I don't mind teaming up with the other junior brothers to beat you to a pulp!" A-Dong said, turning around and patting Qiu-Sheng's shoulder hard, signaling him to leave quickly.
Dong Xiaoyu glanced at A Dong with a cold expression, cursing inwardly that her dissolute nature had been seen through by this little Taoist priest. She deserved to die!
After all, a ghost who offers herself to a ghost after offering only one stick of incense is obviously not normal, and creating a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scenario is definitely not the kind of thinking that only normal ancient women would have.
In the original novel, Uncle Nine also saw through it and wanted to kill him, but seeing how devoted Qiu Sheng was, he didn't expose him.
A-Dong, on the other hand, follows Chizuru closely and knows a lot about this.
.........................
"Let's go."
Ah Dong glanced at the female ghost, who dared not come out in broad daylight, and ignored her.
Even if he came out in broad daylight, well, his three junior brothers could be burning incense nearby.
With the four of us working together, why should we fear your weakened strength under the sun?
Do they really think they've been following their master for nothing?
They frequently play in high-level games and have a wealth of experience.
He wouldn't have died if it weren't for special circumstances!
Just then, Wen Cai's voice came from afar.
"Oh no! The incense has burned like this!" Wencai ran over with two short and one long incense sticks in his hand.
He had just lit the plum blossom incense, but he didn't expect this to happen.
"Two short and one long? Oh no, this could be a disaster!"
Ah Bei also saw Xiang and said.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Wencai asked, puzzled.
Qiu Sheng and the others also gathered around. At this moment, the four people from the east, west, south, north and Qiu Sheng Wencai all looked at the incense.
Ah Bei continued, "The worst thing for incense is two short and one long, and the worst thing for people is three long and two short. If the incense burns like this, someone will die!"
Abei mainly explained things to Qiusheng and Wencai.
The four of them—from the east, west, south, and north—knew these things.
"Huh? Is it so serious?"
Qiu Shengwen was frightened.
Ah Bei's expression was grave. After scanning the crowd, he slowly spoke: "This is no small matter. This is ominous incense. The way it burns—two short and one long—means someone is going to die."
Qiu Sheng tensed up: "What should we do? Senior Brother Abei, who will die? Is there any way to avert it?"
Abei frowned and pondered for a moment: "It's definitely the Ren family who will die, not us! We'll have to ask Master and Uncle-Master for a solution. Let's go back to the mortuary!"
"Oh, okay!" Qiu Sheng nodded.
Wen Cai trembled with fear: "Is it that serious? Can't we just ignore it?"
Ah Bei shook his head repeatedly: "Absolutely not! Since the incense has already burned to this state, we must take care of it. Besides, this is Uncle Lin's business, and we absolutely cannot ignore it!"
"Ok."
Qiu Shengwen nodded, speaking helplessly.
.........................
They don't really want to meddle in other people's business.
“Then let’s go, let’s go back to the mortuary first!” Ah Dong said.
So, everyone rushed to the mortuary without stopping.
However, by the time they arrived at the mortuary, night had already fallen.
After all, they were quite far from the mortuary, and they had spent a lot of time on the mountain. By the time they arrived at the mortuary, the coffin bearers had already left.
"Ok."
We arrived at the mortuary.
Uncle Nine frowned when he saw the group rushing around.
He sighed, especially when he saw the two short and one long incense sticks in Wencai's hand.
Uncle Jiu looked at the incense, his heart filled with helplessness.
He knew that the omen of the incense was difficult to change, but as a Taoist priest from Maoshan, how could he sit idly by?
"Master, is Tingting alright?" Wencai thought of Tingting at this moment.
Uncle Nine glared at him, annoyed.
Chizuru watched from the side, her face calm.
He knew the zombie wouldn't come out tonight.
However, once he gets him out and gives him a beating, his mission will be complete.
