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

Uncle Jiu saw that the winner had been decided, so he left the altar. Jiang Li hurried forward and asked, "Master, what's the situation now? Is the Feng Shui master dead?"

Uncle Jiu looked at Jiang Li in confusion and said, "You should be dead from the backlash of the magic, but what's wrong with the wound on your face?"

Jiang Li had no choice but to tell his uncle about the punch he received due to his carelessness. Uncle Jiu said angrily, "He only has some despicable tricks. It's really not a pity that he died."

When Ren Fa heard that the Feng Shui master was dead, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Uncle Jiu, the Feng Shui master is dead, so what should we do with the curse that was cast on us before?"

Uncle Jiu said, "It's okay. The caster is dead and there will be no more trouble."

Ren Fa hesitated and smiled, "It's not that I don't trust Uncle Jiu, I'm just really scared of him. I still want to see his body to feel at ease."

Uncle Jiu was a little unhappy when he heard this, but he still said, "It's just human nature. Then Master Ren, please arrange a few people to follow me to bring back his body!"

Ren Fa immediately agreed, pointed out four servants and said, "You go with Uncle Jiu and help him."

Uncle Jiu then cast spells and chanted incantations in front of the altar, and after a while he took a few people outside.

At this time, Ren Tingting let go of the jade pendant in her hand, came to Jiang Li and asked with a worried look on her face, "Brother Jiang, are you okay? Are you seriously injured?"

Ren Fa glanced at his daughter and Jiang Li, then limped upstairs to change his clothes, while the servants began to clean up the damaged furniture and debris.

As for the servant who was cursed, he regained consciousness, rolled on the ground wailing, and was soon carried out like the other debris.

Jiang Li looked at Ren Tingting and teased her, "This punch was too hard. Now your whole face hurts." Then he covered his face and shouted "Hey Yo Hey Yo".

Ren Tingting looked at it and said hurriedly, "Brother Jiang, wait for me for a moment. I'll bring you a basin of hot water to apply on it."

After a while, Ren Tingting brought a basin of hot water. She asked Jiang Li to sit on a stool and wiped Jiang Li with a towel dipped in water.

Jiang Li saw her bending over and wiping his face carefully. Looking at the graceful beauty in front of him, he couldn't help but feel hungry.

He stretched out his left hand and hugged her around the waist. When she screamed, Jiang Li leaned forward and covered her mouth. Ren Tingting's eyes widened immediately with disbelief on her face.

She pushed her a few times symbolically with her hands, and then fell limply into Jiang Li's arms. The kiss lasted for a full minute, and Jiang Li let go when Ren Tingting was about to suffocate.

At this time, Ren Tingting took a few deep breaths, her face flushed with shame and anger, "Why are you..."

Jiang Li was not going to tolerate her and immediately attacked her again, blocking her remaining words along with her tongue.

When they separated again, Ren Tingting no longer had any objections, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Jiang Li seemed to be enough to make him sad.

At this time, Ren Fa's coughing sound was heard upstairs. It turned out that he had just changed his clothes and went out when he saw a pig digging up his cabbage. He could only cough a few times to remind it to avoid embarrassment later.

Hearing Ren Fa's cough, Jiang Li licked his lips with satisfaction and reluctantly let go of the almost limp body in his arms.

Ren Tingting, who was freed, quickly covered her face and ran upstairs. At this time, Ren Fa was also helped downstairs. He came to Jiang Li and coughed and asked, "Ali, the weasel you mentioned before has been dealt with."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "With the help of Master, it has been successfully resolved."

Ren Fa said in surprise, "It was solved so quickly, but was it killed?"

Jiang Li replied, "No, its elder is a mountain god and it's not easy to kill it directly, so we discussed and decided to build a temple for it in the future so that it can be worshipped by mortals, and then the matter will be even."

When Ren Fa heard that it was related to the mountain god, he immediately became interested and asked, "What does the mountain god look like? It seems that he can fly and hide in the ground just like the legend says, and he can do anything!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "These are just folk tales. Don't take them seriously. It is not much different from the yellow-skinned creature, except that it is taller, less evil, and more divine and spiritual."

Ren Fa was a little moved when he heard this and said, "If I have the chance, I really want to see what kind of demeanor that mountain god has."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "It may be difficult to meet its elder, but if it can be nourished by incense and refine its demonic energy, it can be considered a mountain god. It will be easy for me to take you to meet it then."

Ren Fa wanted to continue asking questions when he heard this, but he changed his mind and said, "Let's talk about these things later. I don't know if Ah Li still remembers what I told you before, that after you solve the problem of the weasel, come to Ren's house to discuss your matter with Tingting."

Ren Tingting, who was eavesdropping on the second floor, shuddered when she heard this. Jiang Li glanced at her hiding place and said to Ren Fa, "To be honest with you, Uncle Ren, I have been in love with Tingting for a long time. If Uncle Ren agrees, I will ask my father to come over and propose marriage in the next two days."

Ren Fa smiled and said, "I don't have any objection, but I'm afraid that Tingting won't agree."

At this time, Ren Tingting immediately stood up excitedly and shouted "I do."

Seeing Jiang Li and his father looking at her, she was so embarrassed that she hid in the room and buried her head in the quilt.

Ren Fa and Jiang Li looked at each other and smiled. Ren Fa said, "In that case, please ask your father to come and propose marriage another day!"

Jiang Li said with a smile on his face, "Okay, after today's matter is over, I will go home and tell my father about this."

After the matter was settled, the two began to talk about the mountain god. Soon it was time for dinner, and Ren Fa had the food served on the table and waited for Uncle Jiu to return.

It was noon when Uncle Jiu came back. A group of people carried back an old man with dry hair in disheveled clothes and some strange spellcasting props.

Jiang Li and Ren Fa hurried forward to greet him. Jiang Li asked, "Master, you are covered in dust. Did you encounter any accident?"

Uncle Jiu waved his hand and said, "Nothing unexpected happened. It's just that this guy hid in the mountains and there were too many weeds and dead branches on the road, which delayed us a bit."

By this time, Ren Fa had already checked the body of the Feng Shui master. He saw that his hair was dry, his face was old, and blood was coming out of all his orifices. His death was extremely tragic, but his appearance was almost the same and Ren Fa recognized him at a glance.

Then Ren Fa said to Uncle Jiu, "Uncle Jiu, please come in. I have asked someone to prepare the food. If you have anything to say, we can talk after dinner."

Uncle Jiu nodded and agreed to go to the table with Ren Fa. At this time, Uncle Jiu asked, "Why is Tingting not here?"

Ren Fa and Jiang Li looked at each other and said with a smile, "Oh, Tingting doesn't have a good appetite. Let's eat first. I'll have someone send the food to her room later."

Uncle Jiu didn't doubt what he said and started eating with Ren Fa, chatting and laughing.

The meal was soon over, and Uncle Jiu went to Ren Fa to get back his jade token of identity as a protector, then took Jiang Li and the spoils back to the charity cemetery.

After returning to the charity cemetery, Jiang Li asked, "Master, why did you bring back these junks? What use do you have for these broken bones?" As he spoke, Jiang Li picked up a large piece of bone.
