Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

The two sat in the front hall and talked. At this time, the ghost servant came up to serve tea. Lu Li knew that this was the ghost servant but didn't know his origin. Generally, Taoist priests would not raise ghosts, so he looked at Zhuge Kongping.

As if seeing Lu Li's confusion, Zhuge Kongping said: "He was an old servant of our family. Later, when his life was over, he couldn't bear to leave our family. He didn't even finish his life in the afterlife, so he stayed to be a ghost servant.

"Master Lu Li, have some tea." The ghost servant said with a smile.

Lu Li also responded with a smile, birth, aging, sickness and death are common to all people. If it is not for those who have attained the Tao, they will all experience that day. People who practice Taoism are more open-minded about this aspect. Perhaps death is just the beginning.

Zhuge Kongping's junior sister Bai Rourou saw that the two had finished their business talk and said, "Brother, do you think the promise you made to me is true?"

"Ah. What did I promise?" Zhuge Kongping pretended not to know.

"You said you would marry me. Do you want to go back on your word?"

Lu Li was watching the fun with a cup of tea in his hand. Zhuge Kongping really had good luck with women.

After making a fuss for most of the day, everyone went to bed early.

Lu Li planned to rest for a day before setting off, fearing that something unexpected might happen if he delayed for too long.

The next morning, Lu Li washed up, changed his clothes, and walked out of the room to see Wang Hui and Bai Rourou staring at each other, neither of them willing to give in.

Zhuge Kongping invited Lu Li to have breakfast and introduced his two children to Lu Li during the meal.

Like Wang Hui, Zhuge Xiaohua studied the Nine Palaces Mathematical Scripture and is proficient in fortune-telling and divination.

Zhuge Xiaoming followed Zhuge Kongping to learn how to catch ghosts and read Feng Shui.

"I've heard about Brother Lu a long time ago, and now I finally meet him."

"Oh? You've heard of me." Lu Li looked at Zhuge Xiaohua.

“Yes, he fought against the six-winged centipede monster and solved the Xiangxi Corpse King that had been causing trouble for a hundred years with just three moves. He was also able to summon heavenly thunder to break through the obstacles.” Zhuge Xiaohua looked at Lu Li with admiration, like a little fangirl.

It turned out that I heard it from the people in Xiangling. Since Xiangxi is their base camp, naturally more people know about it.

Cough! Cough! Zhuge Kongping coughed twice, interrupting his daughter's infatuated expression.

It's so embarrassing. How can you look at someone like that when you meet them for the first time?

"Is this the time I get to see the real person?" Xiao Ming said happily.

"I'll come again if I have the chance to pass by next time." Lu Li had a good impression of this family. It was as interesting as Zhuge Dagui's family.

"Okay, it's settled then." Zhuge Xiaohua said with a smile.

"Of course I welcome it. I just wonder if my junior brother is busy." Zhuge Kongping said with a smile.

"By the way, Uncle Master, I have to leave tomorrow."

Everyone at the table looked at Lu Li, and Zhuge Kongping said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Well, there are too many bronze-armored corpses involved, and I'm afraid something might happen if it takes too long. How about I go with you?"

"No need, uncle. You still have a lot of things to deal with." Lu Li smiled and looked at Wang Hui and Bai Rourou, then at Zhuge Kongping.

Zhuge Kongping gave an awkward smile; these two women would fight at the slightest provocation.

"Well, be careful on your way."

After breakfast, Zhuge Kongping took Lu Li to see some of the treasures he was researching. Oh! There was also an electric fan. Although its function was not as good, it looked really good.

Among them was his Qing Dynasty strongman zombie.

"This corpse was obtained from the Corpse Refining Sect. You used the Corpse Hiding Talisman to collect the Copper Armored Corpse last night. That talisman was developed by the Corpse Refining Sect."

Lu Li knew that this sect was not an evil sect, but the righteous sect was unwilling to associate with them.

Who wants to live with a corpse every day? Later, a flying zombie appeared and led a group of zombies to slaughter the entire sect. It took the leaders of the major sects to take action and kill the flying zombie with great effort.

Zhuge Kongping was fiddling with the generator. Lu Li had seen the movie and knew the flaws of this so-called psychic corpse communication, so he decided to tell Zhuge Kongping.

"Uncle Master, have you ever thought that Yang alone cannot last long? Since this strong man is a boy's corpse with strong Yang attributes, would it be different if we add some Yin?"

Zhuge Kongping stopped what he was doing, his eyes rolled around, and he was muttering something.

Finally, he jumped up and patted Lu Li on the shoulder, "That makes sense, nephew. I was wondering why the power difference was so big. That's it."

After saying that, he ran downstairs and pulled the ghost servant up.

All day long, Lu Li watched Zhuge Kongping fiddling with all kinds of weird things. This uncle looked more like a scientist than a Taoist priest, although this scientist was a little bit unorthodox.

The sun rose again, and Lu Li suggested leaving.

"Junior brother, are you really not going to stay for two more days?" Although Zhuge Kongping had only met him for one day, he felt that Lu Li understood him. He always reminded him when he was doing experiments, which helped him avoid many detours.

"Uncle Master, I won't stay any longer. The sooner we get to Qingcheng Mountain, the sooner we can finish this matter. If anyone comes to you to ask about the bronze-armored corpse, just say that I took it away."

"That's impossible. I, Zhuge Kongping, won't be so disloyal." Zhuge Kongping's face turned red with anger.

"Uncle Master, don't worry about it. Just say this. It will help me." Lu Li still wanted to earn more merits, and this time Lu Li wanted to break through in the battle.

"Really, you are not lying to me." Zhuge Kongping looked at Lu Li suspiciously.

"it is true."

"Okay then. If there is any danger, remember to inform me." Zhuge Kongping instructed.

After bidding farewell to Zhuge Kongping and his family, Lu Li headed towards Qingcheng Mountain. Xiangxi is not too far from Sichuan Province, but it is more than 900 kilometers from here to Qingcheng Mountain.

Even if Lu Li traveled at full speed, it would take more than ten days, after all, he had to rest in between.

Just one day after he left, someone came to inquire about the Bronze-Armored Corpse in Xishuangbanna. At first, Zhuge Kongping wanted to buy time for Lu Li and shirk the responsibility whenever possible.

Later, all the major sects began to send messages and inquire, and Zhuge Kongping even discovered that there were people from evil sects secretly spying on his temple, making this quiet town lively.

The forces of good and evil would fight whenever they met. Zhuge Kongping had no choice but to leak the news as Lu Li said. The spiritual world became lively and Lu Li came into the eyes of those big shots.

Three days after Lu Li left, word spread from the Maoshan headquarters: "Whoever dares to attack Lu Li is the enemy of Maoshan."

The decent people might cooperate for the sake of face, but the evil sorcerers don't care so much.

Most evil sorcerers practice alone, their resources are always stolen, and they are always hunted down by the righteous. Anyway, they are being hunted down, so who cares about this?

Moreover, most of the evil sorcerers did not believe the rumors that Lu Li's cultivation level could easily kill the Corpse King alone.

A young man in his twenties couldn't have been in the late stage of foundation building since he was in his mother's womb, so what was the point of his decades of cultivation? So they all began to call their friends to rush to Xiangxi.

Our protagonist Lu Li was still walking slowly towards the Xiangqing border, "It's been three days, why hasn't anyone come yet?"

I was thinking that I could earn a lot of merit this time and break through to the Golden Core Stage in one fell swoop, but I didn't encounter any obstacles in my way for three days.

Those evil people cannot take the Bronze Armored Corpse to Qingcheng Mountain to exchange for elixirs, but the Xishuangbanna Bronze Armored Corpse itself is a treasure.

If you get him, you can study the method of Luo Xiang Palace to refine corpses from the bronze-armored corpse, or you can refine corpses yourself. If you succeed, it will be a great help.

After thinking about it, he realized that Zhuge Kongping was helping him delay time in order to get him away. It would take three or four days for those people to arrive on horseback after receiving the news.
