In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

Uncle Jiu heard Ruyi's subtext, so he frowned, thought carefully, shook his head, and said to Taoist Simu and Taoist Qianhe: "Junior Brother Simu, Junior Brother Qianhe, I think we should let Jiale and Dongnanxixi and the others stay."

"We've all left, and there's no one in charge of the charity cemetery. With Adong and Abei here, they can handle some minor matters. Besides, we don't know when the eldest brother and the others will arrive after receiving the message, so the charity cemetery must keep some people here."

Simu knew that Uncle Jiu had not finished speaking, but when he thought about Jiale's cultivation and strength, he knew that if he really followed them, he would be a burden, so he nodded in agreement.

The straightforward Taoist Qianhe didn't think too much about it. He was just wondering if Uncle Jiu's apprentice Wencai was in the charity cemetery. "Wencai... Uh!..."

As soon as Taoist Qianhe mentioned the word "Wencai", Taoist Simu covered his mouth with his hand and said, "Okay, okay, Qianhe, I will listen to you, Senior Brother."

You can't force Uncle Jiu to admit that his apprentice is useless and can't handle reception work, right? Given Wencai and Qiusheng's personalities, if they really leave the task of entertaining Shi Jian and the others to them, they might offend all their fellow apprentices!

The matter was settled, and the four of them quickly prepared to set off. With the talisman, it was very convenient for everyone to carry things when going out. For safety reasons, they took away everything that the charity cemetery had.

On the way, several people talked about Tengteng Town. Uncle Jiu told them about the last time he was almost caught by the Zombie King of Tengteng Town, which made the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly become heavy.

"Brother, from what you said, the Zombie King has already become a flying zombie half a month ago. If it's really him who escaped this time, the Zombie King has sucked so much blood in so many days. Doesn't that mean he has become even more ferocious?"

"The Flying Zombie Master is invincible. I wonder if we, the Earth Masters, can deal with this zombie..."

"Junior brother, don't worry. I am already in the late stage of Earth Master, and I am only one step away from Heaven Master." In order to appease the uneasy Si Mu, Uncle Jiu released his own cultivation, and in an instant the aura of a late stage Earth Master was revealed.

"What's more, besides me, there is also Ruyi."

Uncle Jiu was quite proud after showing off in front of his fellow disciples, and then introduced Ruyi, "Daoyou Ruyi has now recovered his cultivation."

"Recover your cultivation?!"

Simu was stunned when he heard this. If he remembered correctly, when he first met Ruyi, his senior brother told him that Fellow Daoist Ruyi's original cultivation level should be the Refining Spirit and Transforming into Void, so what does this mean now?

Simu thought of this and suddenly turned to look at Ruyi. He asked excitedly, "Ruyi, are you the Heavenly Master?!"

"What, impossible?" Taoist Qianhe thought Taoist Simu was crazy. "Brother, don't talk nonsense. How is this possible?"

"Yes, I am now in the middle stage of Heavenly Master." Ruyi nodded nonchalantly, not thinking that the middle stage of Heavenly Master was anything great at all.

"Mid-stage Heavenly Master?!!!"

The three middle-aged and elderly Taoist priests present were all very surprised, and their surprise was mixed with envy. Uncle Jiu was a little better, because he had known for a long time that Ruyi had recovered his cultivation as a Heavenly Master, but he didn't know that it was only in the middle stage. It was different for Taoist Simu and Qianhe, they were completely surprised and envious.

"I have been practicing for over thirty years, and I have only just broken through to the Earth Master level. I don't know if I will ever be able to become a Heaven Master in my lifetime."

"Yes, Heavenly Master, how many cultivators can reach your level? I thought I was already a Earth Master before I was fifty, which was considered a good talent."

"Now that I've met fellow Daoist Ruyi, I finally understand what it means that there are always people better than you and there are always things better than you!" Daoist Master Qianhe was devoted to practicing Taoism. In order to improve his cultivation as quickly as possible, he even did not hesitate to bind himself with the imperial court of the Qing Dynasty. He originally wanted to practice with the remaining dragon veins of the Qing Dynasty, but he didn't expect that he almost lost his life.

Now that he has finally become a geomancer, he turns around and sees that Ruyi, a casual cultivator in his early twenties, has become a celestial master. He feels so complicated.

"Why should you mind, Taoist priests? I've said before that I'm older than the three of you combined. If you were my age, you would have already become Heavenly Masters."

This is a lie, but now Ruyi can only use such lies to comfort the three sad people.

Unfortunately, the three refused to believe Ruyi's words, insisting that Ruyi was simply younger than them. The four of them, each with mixed feelings, moved at a surprisingly fast pace, quickly reaching Tianshui Town.

At this time, the doors of every household in Tianshui Town were closed, and the streets were empty even in broad daylight. There were still traces of yellow paper money dropped during the funeral on the ground, along with dark red bloodstains on the corners of the walls, making it look particularly eerie and dangerous.

Seeing the desolate and empty Tianshui Town, everyone's faces were grim. Ruyi opened her spiritual sense and enveloped the entire town. Although it only took a moment, she still saw the situation clearly. She said with a heavy heart, "We are late."

"There are no living people left in this town."

"What! How is this possible?" Taoist Simu refused to believe it.

"Any ordinary mortal caught by the Zombie King will turn into a zombie within half an hour." Uncle Jiu's expression was extremely sad, but his tone was relatively calm. "It's been four days since the news of the zombie outbreak in Tianshui Town. With the speed of the Zombie King and the number of people he's turned into zombies in four days, this is indeed very likely to happen."

"Let's go, we're going to Tengteng Town now." The facts were already in front of them, and it was too late for Uncle Jiu and the others to regret. In order to confirm it one last time, the four of them left Tianshui Town and headed for Tengteng Town together.

As soon as they arrived at Tengteng Town, they saw zombies lying on the ground at the entrance of Tengteng Town. The four of them walked closer and saw that the fallen zombies were not of high level, and the wounds on their bodies were charred, which should be caused by thunder magic.

"I don't know who killed these zombies..."

Ruyi looked at the wounds on the zombies and felt it was a bit strange. Normally, when a person was injured by thunder magic, it would only leave a conspicuous mark on the zombie, but the wounds of these zombies were not like that. Rather than saying that they were killed by thunder magic, it was more like they were electrocuted to death.

"Uncle Jiu, that's not right. They weren't killed."

"They were electrocuted to death by the sealing formation!"

"Someone, no, there are zombies using these low-level zombies to consume the sealed mana!" Ruyi quickly thought of it. After she told Uncle Jiu her speculation, Uncle Jiu also reacted.

His expression turned even uglier, and he said to Simu and Qianhe Daoist Master, who had also understood, "Junior Brother, it looks like things are bad. I'm afraid that the Zombie King has really escaped!"

"We must send a message to the ancestral temple!" Before, we only sent a message to the eldest brother Shi Jian to ask him to come over to help fight demons and monsters, and did not force him. Now it is no longer possible. The appearance of flying zombies is no trivial matter. Uncle Jiu, Simu and Qianhe are unable to solve it at all. Maoshan must step in.
