Chapter 21 36th Generation of Maoshan Disciples

Chapter 21 Thirty-sixth Generation of Maoshan Disciples
"You three little bastards! You dare to fool even ghosts!"

In the yard, Uncle Jiu sat on a stool, holding a rattan stick in his hand, scolding the three people with an angry look on his face.

"The boys and girls all have crooked noses and mouths, just like twisted melons and cracked dates. They are simply unbearable to look at!"

"You guys came up with this idea! A bicycle with square wheels! The ghost messenger almost fell apart while riding it!"

"Also, if the gold ingots were replaced with silver ingots, even the county magistrate of the Qing Dynasty wouldn't dare to be so greedy."

"These...these are cheap!"

Qiu Sheng and Wencai tried hard to suppress their laughter and said something nonchalantly.

"Cheap! You only know how cheap it is! I'll let you get away with it!"

Uncle Jiu became more and more angry and spanked each of them on the buttocks with a cane.

Although Li Kunshan remained silent, he couldn't escape. Luckily, he had [Born Strong] and activated [Numbness], so he felt no pain at all. Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were grinning.

After the fight, Uncle Jiu sighed again.

"You're so greedy that I've lost all my face! That was at Longhu Mountain. Not only were there fellow disciples from Maoshan, but also the Longhu and Gezao sects. Seeing those cheap things the ghost messenger brought out, everyone was laughing so hard that they fell over. I wish I could find a hole in the ground to crawl into!"

"Master, weren't you going back to Maoshan? Why did you go to Longhushan?"

"That's because... now is the time to talk about this!"

Uncle Jiu stared, and then felt a little aggrieved.

"Being laughed at is one thing, but my ordination almost went to waste. All because of those cheap things you bought, the underworld thought I was incompetent and directly rejected my promotion notice!"

"what!"

The three of them widened their eyes and realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Master, you didn't get promoted for such a small matter. The underworld is too stingy!"

"Look at all those cheap things you bought? How could you not be angry?"

"That's true."

Qiu Sheng scratched his head embarrassedly, then quickly spoke.

"Then let's go buy some good ones and burn them to make amends. That should be fine, right?"

"No need."

Uncle Jiu waved his hand and then spoke.

"I reissued it on the same day. After receiving the things, the underworld also approved the promotion."

"That's good."

"Doesn't that mean, Master, you've been promoted?"

"You can say that."

Uncle Jiu nodded, looking proud.

"From now on, I will be the head of the Hell Bank, responsible for the printing and distribution of Hell Money. I hold the rank of Fourth Rank."

"Wow! Printing money, that's a lucrative job!"

"Congratulations, Master!"

"Stop flattering."

Uncle Jiu smiled, then suddenly frowned again.

"You're selling inferior goods as good ones, where's the remaining money?"

"You can print your own money, yet you're still so stingy."

Qiu Sheng complained and then took out a dollar from his pocket.

"It's only one dollar. I'll give it back to you."

"Just one dollar?"

Glancing at the silver dollar in Qiu Sheng's hand, Uncle Jiu snorted.

"Master Ren gave you so much as a reward, and you only gave Master one dollar. Who is so stingy?"

"Master, you know everything!"

"Master, I only got two dollars."

"I just arrived in town and happened to meet Master Ren. He told me everything."

Uncle Jiu glanced at his three apprentices with a look of relief on his face.

"I didn't expect such a big thing to happen when I was away, and I didn't expect you to do such a good job."

"Of course, a good teacher produces good students!"

"Flattering again."

Uncle Jiu smiled, then suddenly looked serious.

"But in this way, I can indeed take you back to the sect."

"Return to the sect?" "Maoshan!"

The three of them looked at each other, then came to their senses and looked at Uncle Jiu, their faces full of excitement.

Uncle Jiu didn't keep the secret and told the whole story right away.

It’s actually not complicated. Uncle Jiu went back this time mainly to bestow the ordination certificate.

Before receiving the ordination certificate, he paid a visit to the elders of the sect. Uncle Jiu's master, Li Kunshan and his fellow apprentices, the current head of Maoshan, mentioned that Uncle Jiu and his fellow apprentices had been down the mountain for many years, and the 36th generation of disciples had gradually grown up, and it was time for them to come back and pay homage to the ancestor.

The world is in chaos, demons and evil spirits are rampant. The 34th generation leader orders all the disciples of Maoshan to go down the mountain to defeat the demons and evil spirits and save the people of the world from disaster.

After all, one person's power is limited, and now we are in urgent need of manpower, so we have specially allowed the 35th generation of disciples, that is, Uncle Jiu's generation, to open a school and select those with good character and high moral character to be our disciples.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. The disciples of Maoshan have strictly followed the orders of the master, exorcising demons and evildoers in various places, and recruiting and teaching disciples.

By now, the 36th generation of disciples has grown a bit.

Many fellow disciples went back after this ordination ceremony. The headmaster took this opportunity to order everyone to bring their disciples back to Maoshan to trace their roots.

"So that's it."

After listening to it, the three nodded and couldn't help but feel excited again.

Neither Li Kunshan, who joined last, nor Qiu Sheng, who has been a practitioner for more than ten years, has ever been to Maoshan.

Maoshan is so famous, but as a disciple of Maoshan, I have never been there. It’s a pity. Now I finally have the opportunity to go back and see it.

"Originally, I thought that your cultivation was too shallow. Going back would only bring shame upon me. It would be better not to go back."

Uncle Jiu smiled and changed the subject.

"But I didn't expect you to be able to subdue the zombies. So it seems that it's not impossible to take you back."

"Of course we won't embarrass Master!"

"Master, don't worry, we will be obedient."

"Master, is it as simple as returning home this time just to recognize your ancestors?"

Qiu Sheng and Wencai looked excited, but Li Kunshan seemed to be thinking about something and asked a question.

"You are really smart."

Uncle Jiu smiled and then spoke seriously.

"In addition to paying respects to our ancestor, I will naturally test you!"

"Examination?"

"That's right! Since you are the descendants of Maoshan and shoulder the future of Maoshan, how can we not examine what you have learned when we return to the mountain together?"

"Ah, we're not going to have another duel, are we?"

Wencai immediately looked miserable and worried.

"Master, you just mentioned you guys. Are there other people besides us?"

Qiu Sheng blinked and asked.

"It's natural."

Uncle Jiu nodded and spoke directly.

"This is a major test. Except for the three of you, all the thirty-sixth generation disciples, such as your uncle Simu and uncle Qianhe's disciples, will go back."

"Wow, what a big event!"

"Indeed, so don't embarrass me when the time comes."

"Yes!"

"Since it's a test."

Li Kunshan thought for a moment and asked again.

“If you perform well, will there be a reward?”

"I just want the benefits."

Uncle Jiu rolled his eyes and nodded with a smile.

"After all, it's all the disciples gathered together, and the sect won't be stingy. Of course there will be rewards for good performance."

"And there's a reward? That's great!"

"What a reward!"

Li Kunshan asked quickly, looking at Uncle Jiu with burning eyes.
