My Apprenticeship to Uncle Jiu: I Was a Warlord in the Republic of China

Jiang Li's eyes lit up when he heard this and he said, "You guys stay on the side of the road for a while, I'll go see what's going on!"

As he spoke, he lit a torch and led fifteen Taoist soldiers in the direction that seemed to be the four eyes.

After a while, Jiang Li led his men to a bamboo forest. He looked at the nearby terrain and saw a slope. There were a few toads croaking on the road.

Jiang Li immediately confirmed that he had arrived at the target location, so he led his men to wait.

The Taoist priest who was driving the corpses was Simu. He felt very uncomfortable because he had no one to talk to during the whole journey, so he suddenly had an idea to cast a spell on a toad.

He let it carry the zombies on the road, while he himself sat on the zombies and took a ride.

Needless to say, the result was that the toad could not possibly move forward in a straight line. After a while, it turned around and jumped down a slope.

Seeing this, Simu hurriedly chased after it, but just after he landed and ran a few steps, he saw a group of people holding torches in the distance. He was so scared that he stopped immediately, but the zombies behind him were still following the toad and almost knocked him down.

When Jiang Li saw Simu stop, he stepped forward and said hello, "This is Uncle Simu. Disciple Jiang Li greets you."

Simu was very confused when he heard Jiang Li's voice. He immediately used his sword to draw a line in front of his eyes. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he asked in confusion, "Nephew, what are you doing here so late?"

But he suddenly remembered that his client was not safe yet, so he immediately rushed down the slope to look for the toad.

Jiang Li also dismounted and came to the edge of the slope to help block the zombies so that they would not become rolling gourds.

At this time, a fox spirit on a big tree saw that Simu was gone and the young man was unable to take care of himself, so she immediately threw out a ribbon, tied up the last zombie and dragged it away.

When Jiang Li saw it finally appear, he immediately took out a Mauser pistol from his waist and pulled the trigger repeatedly at the vixen.

Fortunately, Jiang Li had already reached the level of a human master at this time, so even in the dim night, he could see things clearly.

It took just a few shots to knock it down from the tree. Just as Simu found the toad that was under the spell, he heard a rhythmic gunshot. He immediately lifted the spell and climbed up the slope to check the situation.

Before he could see clearly, he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him. He turned around and saw a group of cavalrymen in uniform rushing past, their target was the vixen.

The fox spirit was in a very bad situation at this time. Although it had practiced for many years and had profound magical powers, it could not completely ignore the threat of guns.

Whenever it tried to fly away, Jiang Li would shoot to stop it, so that when the sixteen Taoist soldiers arrived, it still could not escape Mauser's attack range.

Jiang Li fired and ordered, "Raise the muzzle higher. If it dares to run away, shoot it hard!"

The fox spirit had been practicing for many years and was able to understand human language, but she could not speak because she had not yet refined her transverse bone.

When it heard Jiang Li's words, it knew that it would be difficult to escape today, so it rushed towards Jiang Li quickly, trying to subdue Jiang Li and then wait for an opportunity to escape.

When Jiang Li saw it rushing towards him, he immediately dropped his empty Mauser, took off the century-old lightning-struck jujube wood golden hoop from his back, and started fighting with it.

Jiang Li's golden cudgel was not only attached with magical power, but also contained traces of the power of heavenly thunder, so he suffered a loss as soon as he touched it.

It is good at using soft silk ribbons as weapons, and its body is graceful and its movements are agile. At this moment, facing the golden hoop with magic power, it can only dodge and dare not confront it head-on.

Jiang Li kept attacking with the golden cudgel in hand. Each blow was so powerful that it left a huge shadow, and he beat the beast into a miserable state.

The two sides chased each other and refused to give in. The vixen gritted her teeth, wrapped a silk ribbon around Jiang Li's golden hoop and pulled hard, hoping to use the powerful advantage of the demon's physical body to snatch the golden hoop.

But Jiang Li often took blood-killing mushrooms, so his strength was far greater than that of an ordinary human. With a force of both hands, he pulled the vixen in front of him.

He seized the opportunity and grabbed the clothes on its chest, threw it to the ground and made it dizzy, then sat on its thin waist and subdued it by pinching its neck with one hand.

He then asked people to bring ropes and tied it up, then took out many demon-suppressing talismans and stuck them all over the animal, and then ordered people to carry it up and take it away.

Only then did Simu come back to his senses and ask, "Nephew, did you come here specifically to catch this vixen?"

Jiang Li chuckled and said, "To be honest, Uncle Simu, it is true. You should also know that I am using the Essence Pill to practice. I got the news that there is a fox spirit in this mountain, so I led people to search in this area."

"But we have been searching for three or four days and haven't found a single hair. Luckily I met my uncle tonight, otherwise I'm afraid we would have returned empty-handed this time."

Simu heard this and said, "So that's what happened. Fortunately, you caught it today. I think it has been practicing for quite some time. If you use its blood to refine the Essence Pill, I'm afraid it will be very effective!"

Jiang Li laughed and said, "Uncle Master, what are you talking about? We have caught this monster, but we don't know when it will be able to refine its demonic energy!"

Then he said to Simu, "Uncle Master, we have to go back to the dojo. I have something to ask Master Ikkyu. How about we go together? I can also help you carry these zombies."

Simu said to Jiang Li, "We are indeed going back to the dojo, but there is no need to use camels to transport them. The Yin energy of these zombies is too weak. If they are exposed to large livestock such as war horses for a long time, I am afraid that their Yin energy will be dispersed, and then we will be in trouble!"

"As for that bald donkey, I don't know where he is. It's common for him to be away from home for a month or two. You may not be able to see him if you go there."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. It would be the best if we can see him. It doesn't matter if we can't. Just think of it as going to see Junior Brother Jia Le. I wonder if it's convenient for Senior Uncle?"

Simu said, "What's so inconvenient about this? You brothers should really move around more."

When Simu said this, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face, but because it was too late, Jiang Li did not see it.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li did not waste any more time and arranged for eight Taoist soldiers and fifty security team members to rest here for one night and return to Tengteng Town on their own tomorrow morning.

Afterwards, Jiang Li took eight Taoist soldiers and carried the fox spirit and Simu on their journey.

After a night of travel, the group finally arrived at the Simu Dojo early the next morning. Jiang Li hurried forward and knocked on the door, but Jiale didn't open the door after knocking for a long time.

Simu felt very embarrassed when he saw this, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door a few times. Seeing that there was still no movement in the room, he reached in with both hands, poked a hole in the window paper, and opened the door from the inside.

Jiang Li laughed so hard when he saw this scene in a movie in his previous life. Now that it happened to him, he almost burst out laughing.

But he couldn't show it in front of Simu, so he could only lower his head and hold back his laughter. However, the movement of his shoulders was seen clearly by Simu.
