Chapter 48 Uncle 9's Invitation

As soon as he sat down, Lin Tian said to Lin Jiu, "Uncle Jiu, I thought you would come down the mountain soon, but I didn't expect it would take more than a month to see you again."

After hearing Lin Tian's words, Wencai said, "Xiaotian, we originally went down the mountain after you left. However, we passed by a village and found it was haunted. Then, we spent some time to solve the problem."

Hearing what Wencai said, Lin Tian nodded and said, "So that's how it is. But speaking of haunted things, I've also encountered ghosts twice recently."

Hearing this, Lin Jiu asked curiously: "Xiaotian, tell me in detail!"

Afterwards, Lin Tian recounted the details of the two encounters with ghosts.

After listening to Lin Tian's detailed account, Lin Jiu sighed: "Sure enough, as soon as the world began to change, ghosts appeared."

Qiu Sheng and Wencai also looked sad.

Suddenly, Xia Linxi beside Lin Tian asked with a burst of imagination: "Uncle Jiu, now that the world is beginning to change, ghosts have appeared in several places. Will there be a strange resurgence in the future?"

Ever since she was unclear about the thunder tribulation, Xia Linxi had started reading novels. She recently came across a novel about a strange resurrection. So, she asked Lin Jiu about it.

"Strange resuscitation? What is strange resuscitation?" Lin Jiu looked at Xia Linxi in confusion.

Seeing Lin Jiu's puzzled expression, Xia Linxi took out her phone and flipped through the novel about strange resurrection. She handed it to Lin Jiu and said, "Uncle Jiu, this is it."

Taking Xia Linxi's phone, Lin Jiu began to flip through the novel about a strange resurrection. Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, who were standing beside him, also curiously walked up behind Lin Jiu and started reading.

After a while, Lin Jiu handed the phone to Xia Linxi, shook his head, and said with a smile: "No."

"Why?" Xia Linxi asked in confusion.

Seeing the puzzled expression on Xia Linxi's face, Lin Jiu explained, "First, in this novel, before the strange resurrection, there were no extraordinary beings. But in our world, there are both martial artists and Taoists, so there's no need for ghost controllers. Secondly, in this novel, it's probably the laws of heaven and earth that have changed, while we're only experiencing a slight spiritual resurgence. Finally, in this novel, there doesn't seem to be a hell. But in our world, there is both a hell and a heaven. Therefore, there's no need to worry about strange resurrections or ghost controllers."

Hearing this, Xia Linxi patted his chest and exhaled heavily.

Lin Tian, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xia Linxi's expression.

He thought Xia Linxi was so adorable that he couldn't help but tease her, "Xiaoxi, have you lost yourself in novels? You can actually come up with something so outrageous. Your imagination is really too big."

Hearing Lin Tian's ridicule, Xia Linxi felt very unconvinced. She pouted and muttered, "I'm worried too! After all, I know so little about this world."

Seeing that Lin Tian still couldn't stop laughing, Xia Linxi glared at him fiercely and said unhappily: "You're still laughing!" As she spoke, she was about to reach out to pinch Lin Tian's waist.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Tian quickly raised his hands in surrender, begging for mercy with a smile: "Alright, alright, I won't laugh anymore. Is it okay if I don't laugh anymore? Uncle Jiu and the others are still watching us!"

Hearing Lin Tian's words, Xia Linxi turned her head sharply and found that Lin Jiu, his three disciples, and Grandpa Fugui were looking at them with smiles on their faces. She suddenly became shy, her face flushed, and she quickly withdrew her hand from Lin Tian's waist.

At this time, Wencai looked at the two young people in front of him and couldn't help but sigh: "Seeing you like this, I am reminded of my lost youth."

His words made Qiu Sheng laugh out loud, and he sarcastically said, "Youth, you still have youth? You have no youth at all."

After hearing this, Wencai immediately retorted: "You don't have youth. I definitely have youth. Tingting is my youth, although she left with Chu Fan in the end." After saying that, a trace of loneliness appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Qiu Sheng said loudly, not to be outdone: "Tingting is my youth."

Wencai immediately replied, "It's mine!"

Qiu Sheng emphasized again: "It's mine!"

"It's mine!" Wencai continued to insist.

"It's mine!" Qiu Sheng refused to give in.

"It's mine!" Wencai was not to be outdone.

The two argued endlessly, their voices growing louder and louder.

Suddenly, two crisp "bang! bang!" sounds were heard. It turned out to be Lin Jiu dunking on each of them. He roared in anger, "What are you arguing about? You're already over a hundred years old, and you haven't made any progress. There are still people around. Aren't you ashamed?"

Wencai and Qiu Sheng both covered their heads in pain, glared at each other, and turned away, ignoring each other.

Seeing Lin Jiu's somewhat angry expression, Grandpa Fugui on the side quickly persuaded him: "Lin Jiu, don't be angry, doesn't this prove that they have a good relationship?"

Hearing this, the anger on Lin Jiu's face slowly disappeared. He nodded and said with emotion: "Fugui, you are right. It is precisely because of the way they get along with each other that they have been able to support each other for so many years."

Then, he apologized to Lin Tian and Xia Linxi: "Xiaotian, Xiaoxi, I'm sorry for making a fool of myself."

Hearing this, Lin Tian and Xia Linxi quickly waved their hands and said, "No, no, Uncle Jiu, we don't think there's anything wrong. On the contrary, we think Senior Wencai and Senior Qiusheng have a very good relationship."

Then, Lin Tian, Lin Jiu and others continued chatting, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

After a while, Lin Tian asked Lin Jiu, "Uncle Jiu, do you have anything to deal with next?"

After hearing Lin Tian's words, Lin Jiu said, "In addition to solving some issues involving demons and monsters, there is indeed one thing that needs to be dealt with."

After a pause, Lin Jiu continued, "After we came down the mountain some time ago, the old Heavenly Master Zhang Zhiwei from Longhu Mountain invited me to watch the Luotian Grand Ceremony."

"Luotian Dajiao? What is that?" Xia Linxi asked in confusion.

Lin Jiu explained: "Luotian Dajiao is a grand ceremony held in Longhu Mountain."

Then, he continued, "Originally, the Luotian Grand Ceremony was mainly attended by people from the Taoist sect, but this time, there seems to be some changes in the Luotian Grand Ceremony."

After taking a sip of tea, Lin Jiu continued, "Zhang Zhiwei, it seems he's made some changes to the Luotian Grand Ceremony this time to keep up with the times. They're inviting talented people to participate. As long as they have virtue and ability, they can become a candidate for the Heavenly Master."

Hearing this, Lin Tian asked Lin Jiu, "Uncle Jiu, do you know Zhang Zhiwei, the old Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain?"

Hearing this, Lin Jiu smiled and nodded in response, "Of course I know him, we're old friends. Not only that, our Maoshan and Longhushan sects belong to the same Taoist sect, so we have a good relationship. This time, he invited me to watch the Luotian Grand Ceremony. Not only did he want me to witness this grand event, but he also wanted to reminisce about the past."

Then, Lin Jiu asked Lin Tian again: "Xiaotian, do you want to go with me?"

Hearing Lin Jiu's question, Lin Tian did not answer immediately, but asked thoughtfully: "Uncle Jiu, if I go, will I participate in the Luotian Grand Ceremony as a contestant, or watch it as a spectator?"

Hearing Lin Tian's words, Lin Jiu couldn't help but be speechless. He stared at him with wide eyes and said unhappily, "You're participating in the Luotian Grand Ceremony? You're not going to mess things up, are you? With your strength at the Heavenly Man Realm, if you really were to participate, what kind of competition would you even need? You can just be declared the champion."

Hearing this, Lin Tian suddenly felt awkward. He laughed dryly twice, scratched his head, and said, "Hehe, I'm just asking out of curiosity. In that case, Uncle Jiu, I'd better go with you. It's a good opportunity to witness the legendary Luotian Grand Ceremony. By the way, Uncle Jiu, when does the Luotian Grand Ceremony start?"

Lin Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Two months from now, when we leave, we'll call you to let you know."

"Okay, Uncle Jiu. But can I bring a few people with me to see the world?" Lin Tian continued to ask.

After thinking for a while, Lin Jiu nodded and said, "Okay, but don't bring too many people."

Hearing this, Lin Tian smiled and said to Lin Jiu: "Don't worry, Uncle Jiu, it's just a few people."

"That's good!" Lin Jiu said.
