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

Old Master Mao felt the burning of the sun and did not immediately chase Mao Dalong. Instead, he jumped out of the coffin and jumped towards the ancestral hall.

At this time, the glutinous rice and inkstone net on the ground were already damaged beyond recognition and did not play much of a blocking role.

Seeing that it was about to enter the ancestral hall, Jiang Li took out his century-old jujube wood golden hoop, took a few steps forward and hit it on the head.

It was knocked down with one stick, but then it stood up again and continued to run away. Jiang Li naturally would not let him do that, so he hit it with one stick after another to block its way forward.

Seeing this, Mao Dalong quickly called for Uncle Jiu to come over for help, but Uncle Jiu was squatting in the bushes taking a shit and had no time to pay attention to Mao Dalong. Of course, this was also because he trusted Jiang Li and believed that he could easily deal with this black zombie.

Seeing that Uncle Jiu was busy, Mao Dalong called Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, but when he looked around, he found that they were also squatting in the bushes nearby, which made him so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

Speaking of which, Jiang Li was actually very relaxed. If Uncle Jiu hadn't said before that he wanted to take the zombie's teeth alive, use the Yin energy on them as medicine, and combine it with glutinous rice to exert force both inside and outside, he would be able to pull out the corpse poison that was almost attacking Mao Dalong's heart.

If Mao Dalong had not been severely poisoned, the poison could have been removed with glutinous rice, and Old Man Mao could have been killed with one sword. There would have been no need to go through so much trouble.

Another blow knocked it down. Jiang Li found the right opportunity and stuck a corpse-fixing talisman on its forehead, causing its half-raised body to lose kinetic energy and fall straight back to the ground.

Seeing that the zombie had surrendered, Jiang Li immediately said to Mao Dalong, "Marshal, have someone carry the old man to the ancestral hall quickly. Be careful not to drop the corpse-fixing talisman."

Seeing this, Mao Dalong quickly ordered his men to do as he was told. At this time, Uncle Jiu, Qiu Sheng and Wencai had also finished defecating, pulled up their trousers and came to the ancestral hall.

Uncle Jiu said, "Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, you two should quickly saw off the zombie's teeth."

Upon hearing this, the two men reluctantly took out their weapons and started working. However, Jiang Li was still worried about them, so he took out a talisman and stuck it on the zombie's chest.

Then he stood aside and was on guard to prevent any accidents from happening. After all, with Qiu Sheng Wencai's strength, it would be easy for him to cause an accident.

As expected, the accident still happened. When Wencai sawed off the zombie tooth, he excitedly picked it up and showed it off to Uncle Jiu, "Master, the zombie tooth has been removed."

Just as he suddenly stood up, the talisman on the zombie's head was knocked off by the smudge of his sleeve. Fortunately, Jiang Li had also pasted a talisman on its chest, so it was unable to rise from the dead.

Jiang Li and Uncle Jiu shook their heads in silence upon seeing this.

Jiang Li sighed in his heart, "Fortunately, the innate holy bodies of the two people were not fully activated today because of diarrhea, otherwise the zombie teeth might not be removed smoothly."

Seeing that the zombie tooth was already in hand, Mao Dalong couldn't help but say to Uncle Jiu, "Lin Jiu, now that the zombie tooth is in hand, what should we do next?"

Jiang Li looked at Uncle Jiu and winked at him repeatedly, then Jiang Li said to Mao Dalong, "General, look, your father has turned into a corpse. Although he has been temporarily subdued now, he will come out to hunt you down again when his teeth grow back."

"So it's better for us to kill him first and then burn him to get rid of future troubles."

Mao Dalong was a little confused when he heard this, but after thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, then, go ahead!"

Jiang Li said, "Marshal Mao, you should do it yourself. After all, we are outsiders. You just need to stab its chest with this peach wood sword to release the corpse gas, then carry it out and burn it, and everything will be fine."

Mao Dalong thought for a moment and said, "That's true. He's my father after all, so it's only right for me to see him off for the last time."

When Jiang Li saw Mao Dalong turn around, he immediately said to Uncle Jiu, "Master, I think there's something wrong with that maid."

Uncle Jiu frowned and said, "I've discovered that, too. But when we cure Mao Dalong, he will definitely chase us away. We have to think of a way."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I'm good at telling lies. Just wait and see my performance."

Uncle Jiu frowned when he heard this, but really didn't say anything.

Mao Dalong gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I'm just afraid that you'll hurt others and yourself. Don't blame me!"

After saying that, he stabbed the peach wood sword in his hand into his father's chest. Old Master Mao's body suddenly trembled, and Mao Dalong was so scared that he ran away. But after a while, the old man calmed down, and the talisman on his chest fell off.

Mao Dalong asked in panic, "Why did the talisman fall off? Is my father going to come back to life again?"

Uncle Jiu explained, "The corpse-fixing talisman was absorbed by the negative energy in the zombie's body. Now that the negative energy of the zombie has dissipated, the talisman has no support and will naturally fall off."

Mao Dalong then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good."

Then he said, "Please treat me now, my neck is itchy!"

Jiang Li hurried forward and said, "Don't worry, Marshal. It's easy. Just grind the tooth into powder and let my master make you some medicine."

"But the problem now is that you are infected with corpse poison and walk around everywhere at home every day. You don't know if there is any corpse poison left at home. It would be bad if other people were infected."

Mao Dalong immediately panicked when he heard this, "Oh no, my wife is still at home. What if she gets infected with corpse poison?"

Jiang Li smiled at Uncle Jiu, then said to Mao Dalong, "Let's hurry back to the Marshal's Mansion before any accidents happen, and it will be too late to regret it then!"

Upon hearing this, Mao Dalong hurriedly led his men to the Marshal's Mansion. Before leaving, Jiang Li said to the soldiers, "Please gather some firewood and cremate the old man and the coffin!"

Several soldiers looked at Mao Dalong after hearing this. He didn't have any opinion at this moment, so he immediately said to them, "Just do as he says. Remember to bring my father's ashes back to me."

Then he led the team away.

But what he didn't know was that after Mao Dalong left, these soldiers saw that the rosewood coffin was very valuable, so they only burned the corpse, but did not burn the coffin. Instead, they hid it and sold it when they had the chance.

..

The group hurried back to the Marshal's Mansion. Jiang Li suggested that Mao Dalong drink the medicine to detoxify the corpse first, and then go upstairs to see his wife and son.

He thought it made sense, so he did as Jiang Li said. Jiang Li then said, "Take this opportunity to let the master and I clean upstairs and downstairs to avoid any trouble. Is that okay with you?"

Mao Dalong heard that this was related to his wife and children, so he immediately agreed and said, "Then go quickly, but don't leave any corpse poison or anything like that to threaten my wife and children."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li exchanged a look with Uncle Jiu and asked Qiu Sheng and Wencai to clean the downstairs. He and Uncle Jiu took various magical instruments and went upstairs.

Jiang Li certainly did this not because he was bored, but because he wanted to take this opportunity to let Uncle Jiu find the evil baby and then find a way to get rid of him.
