Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 69: Mr. Corpse Driver
Looking at the South Mao and North Ma team composed of Master Mao Xiaoling and Master Ma Wendao.

Guan Shaoqing couldn't help but slowly recall a movie he had watched in his previous life called "Mr. Corpse Driver".

The film mainly tells the story of a Nanmao corpse-driving team composed of female masters and apprentices and a Beima corpse-driving team composed of male masters and apprentices who met at a place on the corpse-driving road. As a result, a male corpse and a female corpse in each other's teams combined to give birth to a corpse demon, which triggered a series of problems.
In addition, the plot seems to involve other characters, and the male and female corpses that were combined seemed to be a couple in their lives. As a result, they met after death and combined to give birth to a corpse demon.

Guan Shaoqing could no longer remember the specific details of the plot. After all, it was a very old movie and he had watched it many years ago in his previous life.

However, looking at the combination of Mao Xiaoling's master and apprentice and Ma Wendao's master and apprentice, Guan Shaoqing could roughly judge that these were obviously the characters in that movie, and the corpses they were chasing happened to be one male and one female.

Moreover, when Guan Shaoqing was traveling with his uncle Simu before, he also learned a lot of knowledge and taboos about corpse driving.

One of the taboos of corpse-driving is that male corpses and female corpses must be separated. Otherwise, if a male corpse and a female corpse combine to give birth to a corpse demon, it will definitely be a disaster, because once a corpse demon is born, it will be at the level of a flying corpse.

But obviously, Mao Xiaoling, a well-known corpse driver in the industry, also knew this. After the group sat together for a while, Mao Xiaoling looked at Ma Wen and said.

"Hey, Mr. Ma, according to the rules of corpse driving, male and female corpses must be driven separately and cannot stay together. We, the master and disciple, were here first, and we are planning to stay here tonight, so first come, first served. Remember to take your male corpses and leave quickly."

Although Ma Wendao was dissatisfied with Mao Xiaoling after hearing this, he also knew that male and female corpses really couldn't stay together, and they were master and disciple, so he could only snort.

"You don't need to remind me of this. I, Ma Wendao, have been carrying corpses for many years and know the rules. I'll leave when the rain stops."

As a result, two or three hours later.

"Rumble--"

"Whoosh whoosh-"

Accompanied by deafening thunder and heavy rain, the roads outside were flooded, and the rainstorm showed no sign of stopping.

Seeing this, Ma Wendao didn't want to continue driving the corpses in such a heavy rain, so he had to look at Mao Xiaoling.

"Witch Mao, it's raining heavily, so it looks like we can't leave tonight. I just saw two courtyards behind the cemetery, and there's some distance between them. Let's each take one courtyard tonight, take care of our own bodies, and spend the night like this, then leave tomorrow when the rain stops."

"Humph, as long as you keep an eye on your male corpses."

Mao Xiaoling snorted coldly upon hearing this but did not refute it, because it was raining heavily outside, and there was wind and thunder. In this situation, chasing the corpse in the rain would probably make it more likely for the corpse to transform.

Then the two of them looked at Uncle Jiu and saluted.

"Master Lin, it looks like the rain won't stop tonight. We, the master and I, will go to the backyard to rest first, so that these corpses won't disturb your rest."

"Master Lin, we are going to rest now, so we won't disturb you."

"Okay, fellow Taoists, please do as you please."

Uncle Jiu also smiled and bowed politely.

So Mao Xiaoling and Ma Wendao each led their apprentice and the corpse to the two courtyards behind the charity cemetery, leaving only Guan Shaoqing and his apprentice Jiushu in the lobby of the charity cemetery.

"Master, I heard from Uncle Simu that once a male corpse and a female corpse combine, a corpse demon will be born. The corpse demon is extremely powerful. Once born, its strength will be at least that of a flying corpse. I wonder if Master can handle it if he encounters it?"

After Mao Xiaoling, Ma Wendao and others left, Guan Shaoqing looked at Uncle Jiu and asked.

"Are you worried about an accident tonight? Are you worried that the corpses they are chasing might combine with male and female corpses to give birth to a demon corpse?" Uncle Jiu guessed Guan Shaoqing's thoughts in an instant.

"Disciple is also preparing for the worst, and I don't know if it is an illusion, but ever since I saw those male and female corpses, I always have an inexplicable feeling of blood surging in my heart." Guan Shaoqing nodded.

Uncle Jiu pondered this, "It's rumored that when one reaches the Grandmaster level in martial arts cultivation, one develops an extraordinary sense of perception, instantly sensing impending dangers. Now that you've achieved Perfection in your external martial arts, you're only one step away from becoming a Grandmaster. Perhaps you've even begun to possess some of the characteristics of a Grandmaster."

"In that case, you and I, master and disciple, should be more careful tonight. As for the corpse demon you mentioned, if something really happens, as long as you can buy me time to cast a spell, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with."

"With my current strength, even if I encounter a real flying corpse, it shouldn't be difficult to buy time for Master to hold him back for a short period of time."

Guan Shaoqing felt relieved upon hearing this. With his current martial arts external power that had broken through the limit, even if he couldn't defeat the flying corpses, it would definitely not be a problem for him to hold off for a short period of time to buy time for his master to cast spells and set up formations. Even a direct confrontation was not impossible.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Jiu looked at Guan Shaoqing thoughtfully. He felt that Guan Shaoqing's current martial arts skills might be stronger than he had guessed.

"It's getting late, so go get some rest. Just keep an eye on the body tonight."

"it is good."

Then the master and the disciple stopped talking and prepared to rest. However, at this moment, Yu Ji, dressed in Miao ethnic clothing, came back from the inner courtyard, holding two embroidered pillows in her hands. She first glanced at Guan Shaoqing shyly, then looked at Uncle Jiu.

"Master Lin, Senior Brother Guan."

"Miss Yuji, what's the matter?"

Uncle Jiu looked at Guan Shaoqing meaningfully, then looked at Yu Ji and asked with a smile.

"Master Lin, my master said that when the heavy rain came in just now, it was thanks to you and Senior Brother Guan's fire that we got through. He specially asked me to send two pillows for you so that you can rest better at night."

After saying that, Yu Ji quickly stepped forward and handed one of the two pillows to Uncle Jiu and quickly took the other one to Guan Shaoqing.

"Miss Yuji and Master Mao are too polite. It's just a small favor, nothing to worry about."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Jiu took the pillow and thanked him.

"Thank you, Miss Yuji." Guan Shaoqing also expressed his gratitude.

"Master Lin and Senior Brother Guan, thank you for your courtesy. Master said that when we are away from home, we should help each other. Master Lin and Senior Brother Guan have helped us, so we naturally cannot accept it without expecting anything in return. So, once you have delivered the pillow, I will return."

Yu Ji looked at Guan Shaoqing with a slightly blushing face, then glanced at Uncle Jiu and said, without wanting to stay any longer, she fled back inside.

"Your charm is truly beyond words. No wonder Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai are reluctant to be with you when there are girls around. I, your teacher, am truly blessed by being with you."

After Yu Ji left, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but look at Guan Shaoqing and joked, how could he not see what was going on when Yu Ji looked at Guan Shaoqing with such shyness and timidity just now.

"Master, you know me. I have never taken the initiative."

Guan Shaoqing spread his hands to show his innocence, as he had never taken the initiative.

"Be careful of romantic troubles."

Looking at Guan Shaoqing's face that even he couldn't help but feel jealous, Uncle Jiu could only shake his head helplessly. He also knew that Guan Shaoqing had never taken the initiative, but the lethality of Guan Shaoqing's face to girls was unreasonable.

"You're back. Are you satisfied with seeing your sweetheart?" In the inner courtyard on the other side, Mao Xiaoling looked at Yu Ji who had returned and said unhappily, "I knew that Guan Shaoqing must have bewitched you. Your eyes seemed to be sinking into him just now."

Yu Ji's pretty face flushed immediately: "Master, no, I just want to thank Master Lin and Brother Guan."

"Haha, you're just trying to thank me, you're just envious of me, you're just thinking about love, I'm too embarrassed to point it out to you."

"master!"

Yu Ji was so embarrassed that she stomped her feet.

"Dong dong——!"

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Master Mao, Miss Yuji, it's me."

A figure with a flattering face walked out. It was Jiayou, the disciple of Ma Wendao.

"What are you here for?"

"Master Mao, it's cold tonight, and Master and I happened to have an extra thin quilt, so we thought of sending it over to Miss Yuji and Master Mao."

As he spoke, Jiayou took out the thin blanket hidden behind him.

Seeing this scene, Mao Xiaoling and Yu Ji, the master and disciple, couldn't help but look at each other.

The one who loves me and the one I love?!
-
Late at night.

The heavy rain stopped.

At this time, outside the charity cemetery where Guan Shaoqing and his group were staying, several masked men in night clothes appeared stealthily at the door of the cemetery.
