Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

Shi Shaojian helped Shi Jian to the room and sat down, "Nephew, you go and do your work first, we will go downstairs to eat together later."

"Then I'll take my leave first. If Master Uncle needs anything, just tell the waiter."

Lu Li left the room, closed the door, and went back next door.

"Shao Jian, how do you feel?"

After Lu Li left, Shi Jian turned back into that poker face again.

Shi Shaojian touched his swollen face and said, "Dad, I am not as capable as others, but Junior Brother Lu Li is really amazing."

Shi Jian smiled. The most terrifying thing about a person is not losing, but not daring to admit it.

If you lose, just win it back, but if you don’t even dare to admit your loss, it will become a demon in your heart.

It seems that his son is not so stupid. "Lu Li is not even his father's opponent. You might as well be normal. In every era, there are people chosen by heaven."

"All of these people are leaders at the moment. It seems that Lu Li is the one chosen by heaven for our Maoshan lineage."

"The prosperity of Maoshan is just around the corner. You must work hard to keep up. Following a man like this, your achievements in the future will definitely not be worse than your father's."

Shi Shaojian's eyes were excited, "Dad, are you telling the truth?"

Shi Jian nodded in affirmation. Who has ever seen someone who was struck by heavenly thunder and survived? His magic power is more than ten times that of ordinary people, and he has reached the late stage of foundation building in his twenties.

I don’t know whether the master’s "Five Thunder Art" has been perfected or not. Anyway, I have read the Maoshan Records and have never seen anyone who has practiced it to perfection. At most, there are only one or two who have achieved great success.

This kind of person is born to be a leader of Taoism. If he doesn't grow up, he might die halfway. But now that Lu Li's power is established, it's not something that can be suppressed easily by anyone.

This is also the reason why I chose to make friends with him after I lost. This kid is indeed likable and knows how to behave.

No one likes to seek death. The grudge with Lin Fengjiao is nothing compared to Maoshan Daxing.

"Sir! The banquet is ready!" The waiter's voice came from the door.

"Master, it's time to eat." Lu Li's voice also came over.

Shi Jian and his son opened the door, and Lu Li supported Shi Jian and slowly went downstairs.

A large table of dishes was placed in front of them, about seventeen or eighteen in total, which made Shi Jian and his son dumbfounded and they looked at the waiter.

"This guest ordered it. He said that since this is the first time we meet, we must treat you well."

Lu Li smiled and said, "Master Uncle is a banner of our Maoshan. Even Master would admire him when he talks about it."

Hearing Lu Li talking about Uncle Nine, Shi Jian glanced at him, wanting to hear what Uncle Nine had to say about him.

"He said that no matter which junior brother has something to do, you will always come when you are summoned. Your protectiveness is touching. If I treat you badly, Master will spank me when I get back!"

Shi Jian's poker face revealed a bitter smile. He had been entangled with Lin Jiu for too long and it was time to let it go.

"Your master is thoughtful."

"Master uncle, please don't be polite if you come to eat."

"Eat it, don't waste your junior brother's kindness."

Shi Jian picked up his chopsticks first, and Shi Shaojian followed suit.

Lu Li smiled as the three of them began to eat and drink.

During the dinner, Shi Jian asked about Qianhe's return to the mountain. He just heard that something happened between Qianhe and Lu Li in the capital, which alarmed his master, the head of Maoshan.

Lu Li put down his chopsticks and talked about his travels and how his master asked him to investigate the Purple Rakshasa Palace.

Shi Jian had also heard of this name, and it seemed to be from Japan.

When talking about the Japanese people in the capital who were trying to lure the Golden Dragon, Shi Jian's expression became serious.

He talked about the battle between him and Taoist Qianhe in the palace, and how he was injured and saved by the jade talisman given by the head master. In the end, Taoist Qianhe was seriously injured, and he was also injured.

"Snap!" Shi Jian slammed his chopsticks down, his eyebrows raised.

"These Fuso people are damnable! Not only did they try to take over the destiny of the Central Plains, but they also dared to hurt our Maoshan people."

No matter how petty Shi Jian is, there is one thing that is undeniable, and that is he protects his people!

It’s okay if I bully your people, but I can’t tolerate you bullying my people. Uncle Jiu will slowly get them back, but Shi Jian must set off fireworks in front of you.

"I'm so angry! My nephew, kill the Fuso people you meet in the future. I will take the blame for you if anything happens. Kill them one by one when you see them!" Shi Jian now looks a bit like the King of Thunder and Lightning, and his words are so cruel.

"Not really, Master Uncle. If you kill people like this, you won't be able to see the Grandmaster anymore."

Good fellow! Lu Li hurriedly stopped him, otherwise if he really wanted to kill all the Fuso people in the Central Plains, he would be struck by lightning as soon as he left the house.

"Humph!"

Shi Jian thought it was impossible, but this tone would come out sooner or later.

"What are your plans!"

"I heard that this group of people seemed to be looking for something in the tomb. I have a good relationship with the leader of Xiangxi Xiling, and I was planning to ask them to help keep an eye on it."

Shi Jian thought about it and came up with a solution.

"Yes, those local masters are good at this. If you are defeated by the Fuso people, send a message to me. Your master is still not good enough in fighting."

Shi Jian can indeed be proud of this, as he has basically spent his entire life slaying demons and monsters, leaving no one alive under his hands.

"I will definitely bother Master Uncle when the time comes!"

The host and guests had a great time at the meal and were well fed and satisfied.

Shi Shaojian leaned back in his chair and picked up the teacup with satisfaction. Shi Jian didn't have much money in his hands.

He has a bad temper and rarely has repeat customers.

Moreover, they are often on the road, eating one meal and staying here for a while and there for a while.

All the money I had was used as travel expenses. The only time I had such a delicious meal was a year ago when I was helping a wealthy family exorcise ghosts.

After asking the waiter to prepare bath water for Shi Jian and his son, Lu Li also went back to his room to take a bath.

Half an hour later, Shi Jian finished his shower, changed into clean clothes, and knocked on Lu Li's door.

"Uncle."

Lu Li opened the door and found Shi Jian alone. He was thinking, shouldn’t Shi Jian be recuperating in the room?

Why are you looking for me?

"Won't you let me come in and sit down?"

Something seemed to have changed in Shi Jian, he even started to make jokes.

Lu Li quickly let him in, poured him some tea, and stood aside.

Shi Jian's eyes softened, "Sit down and talk. Don't you want to hear about my story with your master?"

What happened between him and his master? Big gossip.

He quickly moved a stool over and sat down.

Shi Jian took a sip of tea, seeming to be thinking about where to start.

"I entered the sect about ten years earlier than your master. At that time, the older generation of Maoshan had left or gone down the mountain, and the mountain was deserted with few people."

"Later, my master, your great master, went down the mountain for a year and brought back three young men, namely Mamadi, your master, and Simu. Mamadi was lazy and Simu was naughty. Only your master was diligent and intelligent, but he was narrow-minded."

Lu Li didn't expect that Uncle Jiu already had a grudge problem at that time.

"Your master is very busy and has to deal with the affairs of the sect. I am ten years older than them and joined the sect ten years earlier, so I usually teach them how to practice."

Thinking of the happy times back then, Shi Jian's expression softened a lot.

"Later, your master went down the mountain and brought back Zhegu and Xiao Qianhe. There were only seven of us brothers and sisters under the master's name, and the rest were some elders and disciples."

Lu Li understood that these seven people were the direct descendants.

"During those ten years or so, the seven of us would go to Damao Peak to catch birds when we had nothing to do, or go to the valley to grill fish. Just thinking about it, we were really free and easy."

Shi Jian smiled, then his expression froze.

"Later, we all grew up and started to go down the mountain to gain experience. I remember that was my third time going down the mountain. Your master was in his twenties, and I was in my thirties."

"That was the time when I was in my prime. I was upright and talented, and I had just perfected the Lightning Thunder Fist. Your master praised me whenever he met someone, and even appointed me as the acting head of Maoshan, intending to let me take over Maoshan in the future."
