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

But after seeing Jiang Li walk about ten meters, he still followed him and said, "I'll buy you whatever you want to eat."

Jiang Li said indifferently, "Anything you buy is fine."

Ren Tingting was embarrassed again, and when she saw a man selling candied haws passing by, she said, "Let me treat you to some candied haws."

Then he bought two skewers for Jiang Li and said, "One is to thank you for saving my life, and the other is... for you to eat."

Jiang Li took it and bought one for Ren Tingting, saying with a smile, "This is also a treat for you, so we are even."

Then he started eating the candied haws and stopped talking. However, Ren Tingting couldn't help but said, "You haven't told me yet."

Jiang Li pretended to be stupid and said, "Tell you what."

Ren Tingting was so angry that she went straight home and ignored Jiang Li.

Jiang Li accompanied Ren Tingting to the vicinity of Ren's home, then he stopped the angry Ren Tingting and said, "Tingting, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."

At this time, Ren Tingting said with an "impatient" look on her face, "Tell me what's the matter."

Jiang Li walked up to her and said, "Keep your voice down. This is a secret. I'm telling you quietly."

Then he leaned over to the puzzled Ren Tingting's ear and whispered mysteriously, "Maoshan Taoist priests can marry."

After saying that, he gently bit her earlobe.

Ren Tingting was so frightened that she screamed repeatedly, and then a stream of blood ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. She was so embarrassed that she quickly ran home.

After watching Ren Tingting enter the door, Jiang Li turned around and left. Ren Tingting had both good looks and a good figure.

Having a father who is the richest man but has no brothers, sisters or mother-in-law, she is simply the perfect template for a wife. How could Jiang Li, a virgin for two lifetimes, not be tempted?

At this time, Ren Tingting was hiding behind the big iron gate of her house, secretly watching Jiang Li leave through the gap. After an unknown amount of time, her pounding heart finally calmed down. But when she thought of him biting her ear, her face turned red again.

...

Three days passed in a flash, and it was noon that day at the Ren family's ancestral tomb.

Uncle Jiu lit a stick of incense and said, "Everyone should worship with sincerity and respect." Then everyone lit incense one by one.

Ren Fa walked behind Uncle Jiu and deliberately asked, "The Feng Shui master said that it is very difficult to find a good cave in this land."

Uncle Jiu turned around and said, "Yes, this hole is called a dragonfly touching the water hole. The hole is 34 feet long, but only 4 feet can be used. If it is expanded to 13 feet, only 3 feet can be used. Therefore, the coffin cannot be buried flat, but must be buried in a traditional way."

Ren Fa smiled and nodded, saying, "As expected of Uncle Jiu, he is truly amazing."

At this time, Wencai and Qiusheng, who were following behind, stepped forward, and Wencai asked, "Master, what is a French funeral? Is it a French funeral?"

As for Jiang Li and Ren Tingting at this time, they looked at each other and then walked behind Uncle Jiu, leaving Ren Tingting alone with a blushing face.

At this time, Uncle Wen Jiu, a strong laborer who came to help, said, "Uncle Jiu, we have already worshipped, can we start the earthwork now?"

Uncle Jiu nodded and said, "It's time to start construction."

Then several strong laborers came to the tomb of Old Master Ren, bowed deeply first, then carefully dug out the tombstone, and then asked Ren Fa to dig the first shovel, and then they started digging.

Of course it is impossible to just walk up and kick him like in the movies. After all, Ren Fa is still watching here. If it were like in the movies, how could Ren Fa remain indifferent? If it got out, he would have no chance of survival.

At this time Qiu Sheng stepped forward and asked, "Master, what exactly is a legal burial?"

Uncle Jiu did not explain, but looked at Jiang Li and asked, "Do you know?"

Jiang Li said, "Because the size of the acupuncture points is limited, the coffin can only be buried vertically."

Uncle Jiu nodded, and Ren Fa complimented him, saying, "The Feng Shui master said that if the ancestors are buried upright, the descendants will surely have good fortune."

Then Uncle Jiu asked, "Does it work?"

Ren Fa smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "In the past twenty years, our Ren family's business has been getting worse and worse, and I don't know why."

Uncle Jiu said to Ren Fa, "I think Mr. Feng Shui has a grudge against your Ren family."

Ren Fa asked doubtfully, "Any grudge?"

Uncle Jiu asked tentatively, "Did the old man have any grudges with this Feng Shui master when he was alive?"

Ren Fa said awkwardly, "This cave originally belonged to the Feng Shui master. Later, my father knew that this was a good cave, so he spent a lot of money to buy it."

Uncle Jiu looked at Ren Fa and knew there was something else going on, so he asked, "Is it just bribery? Is there any coercion?"

Ren Fa smiled awkwardly and didn't answer.

Uncle Jiu immediately understood what was going on and said, "I think it must be coercion, otherwise he wouldn't let you cover the entire dragonfly-diving hole with cement."

Ren Fa asked in panic, "What should we do then?"

Uncle Jiu said, "It should be snowflakes covering the top that is called a dragonfly touching the water. How can it be called a dragonfly touching the water if the head of the coffin doesn't touch the water?"

"Fortunately, he still has a conscience. He told you to move your coffin and bury it in 20 years. He will not harm you for your whole life if he harmed you for half your life, and will not harm you for eighteen generations if he harmed you for one generation."

At this time, Ren Tingting was listening to this and anxiously found Jiang Li and asked, "Brother Jiang, what Uncle Jiu said is so scary. Can learning Feng Shui really harm eighteen generations of people?"

Jiang Li sighed and said, "It's hard to say anything else, but this Feng Shui master definitely can't do that, because your father only has one daughter. In a sense, your family has no descendants, so he can't harm your eighteenth generation."

When these words were spoken, not only did Ren Tingting cover her mouth in disbelief, but even Ren Fa widened his eyes.

Although Jiang Li's voice was not loud, the place was empty and Ren Fa still heard it. He looked back at Jiang Li in disbelief and asked, "What did you say?"

Jiang Li said helplessly, "Master Ren, calm down. I just have an immature guess. There is no evidence yet. We should have the answer when we open the coffin."

After Ren Fa heard Jiang Li's words about cutting off his lineage and extinction, he was first angry and then shocked. Finally, he thought of his wives and concubines and was so angry that he trembled all over.

At this time, the gravedigger shouted, "I see the coffin."

The group then put their thoughts aside and went to the grave to check. The young and strong man brought a tripod with a pulley, tied the coffin with a rope, and finally pulled it up and put it away together.

After placing the coffin on the wooden pillow, Uncle Jiu ordered the nails to be removed, and then said to everyone, "Everyone, today is the day when Ren Gongweiyong will see the light of day again. Anyone aged 36, 22, 35, 48 and born in the year of the Rooster or the Ox should turn around and avoid bumping into the old man."

Then he ordered people to open the coffin. At this time, the birds around seemed to be frightened by something and were startled and flew up.

Two young men lifted the coffin lid, and everyone saw a black gas coming out. Master Ren and Ren Tingting knelt on the ground and howled, shouting "Dad" and "Grandpa".

After howling for a while, Ren Fa found that Uncle Jiu did not make the next move, so he stood up and said to Uncle Jiu, "Uncle Jiu, do you think this tomb can still be used?"

At this time, Uncle Jiu said solemnly, "A dragonfly touches the water again and again, it will definitely not touch the same place. This tomb is useless."
