Uncle Nine: I became Master Qianhe, and my fame resounded throughout the Daoist sect.

Uncle Nine then closed the handwritten copy of the Golden Light Divine Mantra, stood up, and said with a smile, "I almost forgot the important matter. Junior Brother Qianhe, let's go."

"Alright! Go east, west, south, and north, close the Taoist temple, and follow me!"

"Yes, Master!"

The four people from the east, west, south, and north responded, immediately packed their things, and followed Qianhe.

Uncle Nine was truly envious of how obedient the four were.

The group then went to the mortuary. Uncle Nine told the villagers that he would send his junior brother to handle the matter because he couldn't leave.

The villagers nodded in agreement, saying it would be a good thing to have a capable Taoist priest take them to see the situation!

Chizuru and the others then followed the group to the fishing village.

Uncle Nine then took Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai to Huangshan Village near Chu Renmei.

It was already evening when we arrived at the fishing village.

Throughout the journey, Qianhe kept asking this villager about the situation in the fishing village.

But the villagers stammered, only saying that there was something terrifying, and Chizuru could tell from their expressions that they were lying.

But he didn't expose it; instead, he wanted to see how things went.

......................

Upon arriving at the fishing village, Chizuru noticed that the village was filled with the aura of corpses.

Moreover, the aura of death was extremely strong.

“Take us to your village chief!” Qianhe said to the villagers.

He wanted to go directly to their village chief to inquire about the situation.

Only the village chief knows the truth; asking this villager will certainly not yield the truth.

"Yes, Master Qianhe!"

The village servant nodded and led them to the village chief.

And the village chief here is none other than Village Chief Qian.

This village has three surnames: Qian, Li, and Yang.

The three families were very large, which is why their fishing village wasn't named Qianjia Village, Lijia Village, or Yangjia Village.

In his memory, he remembered that in the heavily guarded area, the Qian, Li, and Yang families were eventually slaughtered.

The entire village was slaughtered.

He remembered that the Qin corpse had appeared before, and then it was suppressed by Zhong Kui's sword and three corpse-suppressing coins!

"I wonder if the Zhong Kui sword and the three corpse-suppressing coins are still in that place!"

Chizuru thought to herself.

But he'll go check and take it if he finds it.

He wanted to see if Zhong Kui's sword was real or fake.

If it's true, then it'll be useful; Chizuru can take it.

The people of this fishing village, upon seeing the people transporting Qin's corpse and treasure passing by, immediately killed them and sank them into the sea. Qin's corpse, however, rose from the dead after the villagers opened its coffin and inhaled the scent of living people.

Although he was from the Qin Dynasty, he had only recently risen from the dead; he was a newly transformed corpse.

Even if he had just turned into a zombie, he was still a pseudo-flying zombie, after all, he was Qin Er Shi Hu Hai when he was alive.

If the First Emperor were to come, the corpse transformation would probably be at the level of a drought demon!

All I can say is that Hu Hai was a useless man!

ancestral hall.

Outside the ancestral hall, the entrance to the Sanhe Ancestral Hall was now packed with people, resembling a silent forest.

This ancestral hall is the shared spiritual home of the three families, where the ancestral tablets are enshrined.

Now that a major event is looming, they have all gathered here to discuss important matters.

Because they were robbing treasure, the Taoist priest who was transporting the coffin cursed their village with his magic, causing the Qin corpse to target their village. This is why they were so afraid and wanted to find Uncle Nine to break the curse.

Those people were all chopped into pieces and thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

The purpose was to destroy the evidence.

"Village chief, Uncle Jiu didn't come, but his junior brother, Daoist Qianhe, has arrived!" A villager's servant hurried forward and loudly reported to the village chief.

The other two families, like stars surrounding the moon, also crowded around the village chief.

They frowned upon hearing the servant's words.

Only the village chief didn't take it seriously.

He believed in Uncle Nine, and he also believed in the abilities of Uncle Nine's junior brother!

If Uncle Nine allowed him to come, he certainly wouldn't jeopardize his own business reputation.

As Qianhe stepped into the ancestral hall, she immediately saw the dead bodies lying all over the ground.

These dead people were all cruelly bitten to death by the Qin corpses. Their faces were twisted and terrifying, as if they were telling the story of the pain and fear before their death.

Judging from their appearance, lividity was evident, indicating that they had clearly begun to turn into zombies.

Chizuru stood with her hands behind her back, her head slightly raised, her expression indifferent as frost, like an unshakeable mountain.

...........................

"Oh? Master Qianhe? Uncle Jiu's junior brother? Then it seems he must also be someone with extraordinary skills!"

Upon hearing the servant's words, the head of the Li family was filled with surprise. He then stood up and stared intently at Qianhe.

The village chief stepped forward and said solemnly, "Master Qianhe, please come forward for a chat!"

The village chief spoke earnestly and waved for others to bring chairs so that Chizuru could sit down.

"Go, bring a chair over!"

"Yes!"

Chizuru glanced at the bitten villagers on the ground and said coldly, "Let's cremate these villagers first, lest they kiss you!"

"No, this won't do! These people were most afraid of fire before, we can't do this!"

"Yes, we fishermen all enjoy swimming. How can we cremate them? No, no, absolutely not."

“Yes, the people in our fishing village are all afraid of fire but not water. Master Qianhe, you should find a good feng shui site to bury them.”
