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

Because it is a monster and has been worshipped by mortals for many years, its views are naturally very novel. Although they may not be polite, they are unique and people are very interested in listening to it in detail.

The last one is the fox spirit. Because the body it transformed into is very enchanting, it has now turned into a spirit beast but it is still very agile.

In addition, she has been studying Taoist scriptures a lot during this period of time, so she is not only charming and seductive, but also has a sense of agility and naturalness.

This allowed her to do nothing but sit cross-legged on the cushion. Naturally, many pilgrims followed her example, sitting cross-legged and meditating there, pursuing the Taoist tranquility and inaction.

This scene on the mountain not only shocked Jiang Li, but even his knowledgeable uncle Shi Jian and the other fellow disciples of Maoshan were stunned.

They have been wandering the world for many years, but have never seen such a bizarre thing as a monster that has not yet transformed itself being able to master a whole set of procedures for receiving pilgrims.

So they all stood there staring, without moving for a long time.

Seeing this, Jiang Li wanted to step forward and ask Uncle Jiu for details, but at this time Shi Jian said to Uncle Jiu in surprise, "Junior Brother Lin, your ability to teach spirit beasts is really not weak. You can even receive pilgrims on your own!"

Uncle Jiu awkwardly explained, "Big Brother, you misunderstood. I have never taught them these things on weekdays!"

"Junior Brother Lin, there is no need to be modest. I will not ask you for this taming method."

As soon as Uncle Jiu heard this, he knew that Shi Jian had misunderstood, but he did not explain. Because he did not know how to explain it, he simply said nothing and just asked his disciples to come forward to help receive the pilgrims.

When Jiang Li heard Uncle Jiu say this, he walked straight to Wang Cangrui, grabbed him by the back of the neck and carried him away.

Because he was 100% sure that it was this guy who did it. Although the other spirit beasts were quite intelligent, they could not communicate with each other. Only it could transmit telepathy and unify all the spirit beasts.

When the pilgrims saw the messenger Cangrui being taken away, they all came forward to inquire about the situation, but after he and Jiang Li explained, they stopped.

Seeing that everyone had calmed down, he carried Wang Cangrui to the main hall and casually placed him among dozens of Taoists.

"Tell my uncles and aunts what is going on?" Jiang Li said unhappily.

As a result, Wang Cangrui chuckled and said, "Excuse me, Taoist priests. I am Wang Cangrui, an aspiring spirit who aspires to become a mountain god."

"It's because no one has taken care of Qingyun Temple these days. We are afraid that it will be abandoned, so we organized a few fellow Taoists in the temple to practice first and accumulate some experience for becoming a mountain god in the future. This is why we have seen this scene today. Please forgive me for making fun of you!"

Shi Jian was very surprised when he heard this. He only thought that these spirit beasts did this because Lin Jiu intentionally taught them to do so, but he did not expect that they organized it spontaneously.

So he quickly asked for details, "How did you learn to receive pilgrims? I see that you act in a very methodical way, as if you have been learning for a long time?"

"Hehehe, Taoist priest, you don't know. I have been worshipped in a town for decades, so I know a lot about these things."

"Plus, I have been staying in Qingyun Temple for a long time. I have memorized everything those disciples do on a daily basis, so I am familiar with handling it now!"

After hearing these words, Shi Jian nodded in praise, which made the surrounding crowd of onlookers anxious. After all, Wang Cangrui was transmitting sound through his spiritual consciousness, and with his current level of cultivation, it was impossible for everyone to hear at the same time.

Shi Jian had no choice but to relay the conversation to everyone, which cleared up everyone's doubts and everyone discussed the matter with a smile on their faces.

Uncle Jiu felt very honored when he saw this, so he asked Jiang Li to inform Wencai to go to Renjia Town to buy more vegetables and meat. Jiang Li naturally obeyed the order and left.

Uncle Jiu brought his fellow disciples to visit Qingyun Temple.

Jiang Li went out and did not go to look for Wencai. Instead, he went down the mountain and mobilized a platoon of soldiers to go to Renjia Town to buy a large amount of vegetables and meat. He also specifically instructed them not to buy cattle, dogs, black fish, wild geese and turtles.

After that, he went up the mountain to find Wencai and asked him to take people to prepare staple food and side dishes. Otherwise, they would have to wait until dark to eat before they could make a fire after the ingredients came back.

At this time, Wencai was a little embarrassed. "Junior brother, you know that the master is very proud. If we only put some side dishes on the table, the master will probably get angry!"

Jiang Li explained, "Brother, don't worry. I have asked people to buy chicken, duck, fish and meat. Once your staple food and side dishes are ready, it will be time for them to return."

Wencai felt relieved when he heard this, and immediately took people to prepare meals.

After all, the master has dozens of fellow disciples, and if you add their disciples, there are probably more than a hundred people. If you add the people from Qingyun Temple, there are probably close to two hundred people. This is not an easy task.

Fortunately, Wencai often cooked vegetarian meals for pilgrims on weekdays, so he was very experienced in this kind of big pot meals. He quickly distributed the orders, and the kitchen became busy in an orderly manner.

Jiang Li was relieved upon seeing this. He said a few words of encouragement, then turned around and left.

But he did not go to help receive the pilgrims. Instead, he followed Shi Shaojian not too close. He did not want this guy to cause any trouble in Qingyun Temple, otherwise it would be difficult to end.

Sure enough, Jiang Li’s worries were not unnecessary. Shi Shaojian had been secretly looking for candidates.

Finally, he spotted a young woman who was seeking a marriage partner. He pretended to walk past her casually, bumped into her accidentally, and took a strand of her hair.

Jiang Li naturally saw all of this, but he did not try to stop it. After all, there were too many pilgrims now, and if there was any trouble, it would be a huge blow to the reputation of Qingyun Temple.

After seeing that he succeeded, he returned to the main hall. Jiang Li did not follow him in to expose him in public. That would have been a bad ending. After all, as the eldest brother, Shi Jian must enforce the law impartially, otherwise he would not be able to convince the public.

In that case, he would definitely feel resentful towards Jiang Li and Uncle Jiu, which was not what he wanted to see. After all, Shi Jian argued with the ghost that day, which made Jiang Li feel deeply moved. It is different when you have someone in your master's sect.

So he did not intend to expose the matter this time, but instead planned to use it as a handle to make Shi Jian remember a favor for him.

This went on until six o'clock in the evening, when all the pilgrims had already gone down the mountain, and Wencai brought his people to bring the prepared food to the table.

The banquet began, the food was served on the table, and naturally there was a round of toasting and drinking.

When the wine was half drunk, everyone told each other about their experiences of slaying demons and eliminating monsters over the years. It was a very happy scene.
