Chapter 669: Invitation for Discussion

Chapter 669: Invitation for Discussion
"Pa!" Before he could finish his words, he was slapped by Uncle Jiu.

"You made a mess yourself, and you asked your junior brother to clean up your mess. Now you're asking your junior brother for a paper horse. Do you have the nerve to do that?"

Uncle Jiu became furious when he thought of this.

Lin Hao handed another exquisite and gorgeous paper horse to Uncle Jiu and said:

"Master, I asked you to help me collect two horse souls before, and I also wanted to prepare a paper horse for you to use when you go out!"

"Hehe, since Lin Hao has this intention, then your teacher will not refuse!" Uncle Jiu felt very relieved and very happy in his heart, but his face showed a calm look.

Taoist Simu, who was watching from the side, was filled with envy, but it was a pity that the disciple was someone else's.

"Brother, I'll be leaving first. Junior-Junior Brother Lin Hao, please come visit your uncle when you have time!"

Taoist Simu looked at the sky, and then thought of his guests who had been ravaged all night, so he rang the bell and prepared to travel overnight.

"Junior brother, you really won't stay for two more days?"

"Brother, my guests have been tossed around for a while, so we'd better go back and bury them quickly to avoid any more complications!"

Simu was very serious when he mentioned his guests, then he looked at Lin Hao and said with emotion:

"Though my nephew has not been in my sect for long, I think his achievements in the future will probably surpass you and me. You are so lucky! I will go back and train Jia Le properly. He won't fall too far behind."

"gone!"

Watching Taoist Simu shaking the bell and the zombies jumping away, Lin Hao looked at his system panel.

Ding: "Skills are solidifying~, Maoshan corpse control skills are obtained!"

Maoshan corpse-controlling technique: Use mana and spells to control the actions of zombies. The number of zombies controlled shall not exceed the spirit points. Fate points can be consumed to increase the number of zombies. Fate points can be used instead of mana and spells. Each use consumes 1 fate point.

To be honest, Lin Hao was a little disappointed with this corpse-controlling technique. It wasn't that it was useless, but that it was of little use. The disadvantages of using zombies were too great and it was simply unnecessary.

"Okay, we have an appointment to drink foreign tea tomorrow morning, so you should go to bed early!" Uncle Jiu looked at Qiu Sheng and Wencai with some disappointment. In fact, he really hoped that they could work harder like Lin Hao.

"Yes, Master!" Lin Hao and the other two said in unison.

······
Early the next morning.

After breakfast, the four masters and apprentices rushed back to Renjia Town, but Uncle Jiu and Lin Hao rode paper horses, while Wen Chou sat on Qiu Sheng's bicycle.

"Lin Hao, from what you said yesterday, you must have drunk this foreign tea, right?"

Uncle Jiu still didn't want to embarrass himself in front of Master Ren, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Master, speaking of foreign tea, it is actually a drink that foreigners like to drink, a drink called coffee, just like tea, nothing special."

After Lin Hao said this, Uncle Jiu immediately felt relieved.

"Well, according to you, this coffee is nothing special!"

"Master, wait for us~!" When they arrived at Renjia Town, Uncle Jiu and Lin Hao were calm and composed, while Qiu Sheng and Wencai who were following behind were sweating profusely as they chased after them.

"You two, not only do you have low cultivation levels, but you're also so slow!" Uncle Jiu's words made Qiu Sheng and Wencai feel very aggrieved.

It seems that after having a junior brother, their popularity has dropped visibly.

"Master, I won't drink that foreign tea. I'll go to my aunt's rouge shop to help first!" Qiu Sheng thought that his master had never drunk foreign tea, and he might make a fool of himself today.

He decided not to join in the fun, but Wencai was very happy when he heard that there was one less person to share the limelight with him.

Lin Hao's heart moved, and then he said:
"Then you guys go first, Master. I still have some things to take care of and I need to pick someone up!"

"Hey~!" Uncle Jiu originally wanted to let Lin Hao go in together, but Lin Hao disappeared in a flash as he spoke.

Uncle Jiu had no choice but to take Wencai with him and let Wencai go ahead.

Today, Uncle Jiu was wearing a leather vest with a silk gown underneath. He looked very energetic and obviously didn't want to lose face.

However, this outfit seems a bit out of place when eating Western food in a new-style restaurant.

Originally, Uncle Jiu was walking in front with a masterly demeanor, but as soon as they entered the door, the restaurant manager, wearing a suit and a bow tie, stopped the three of them with a look of disdain on his face and asked:
"Do you have any reservations?"

Seeing that look of disdain, Uncle Jiu immediately felt embarrassed.

"What! Didn't Ren Fa reserve a seat?" I have to say that Wencai still has some quick wits!"

When the manager heard Uncle Jiu talking about Ren Fa, he immediately put on a smiling face.

"So you are Mr. Ren's guests. Please come in. Mr. Ren has already reserved a seat for you!"

Uncle Jiu was not afraid and followed him in.

When we got to a private seat next to the window on the second floor, Ren Fa was sitting there waiting alone.

"Oh, Uncle Jiu, you're here, please come this way!"

Ren Fa was a businessman, and he always smiled when he met someone. When he saw Uncle Jiu coming, he quickly stood up to greet him, giving Uncle Jiu enough face.

"Master Ren! We are not too late!"

"No, no, I just arrived too!"

Ren Fa led Uncle Jiu to the seat of honor, and then the three of them exchanged pleasantries. Wencai had never seen such a scene before, and immediately excitedly showed off himself.

"Okay, okay, you are also a young talent!"

Ren Fa nodded, and seeing Wencai's silly look, he said a few polite words and didn't say anything more.

"Mr. Ren, I heard that your daughter has returned from the provincial capital. Why didn't you invite her to come along?" Uncle Jiu asked politely.

"Oh, Tingting, she learned how to make up from foreigners in the provincial capital, and when she came back she started teaching others everywhere, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye!"

You look like a bun, so your daughter probably won't be that pretty! Wencai was somewhat indignant when he saw Ren Fa's perfunctory treatment of him.

At this time, Ren Fa looked towards the stairs, then said with a smile:

"Look, my girl is here!"

"Oh, Tingting has grown up so big in the blink of an eye!" Uncle Jiu said with some emotion when he saw the graceful Ren Tingting.

Wencai turned his head curiously and saw Ren Tingting walking towards him wearing a pink sun hat and a pink puffy skirt. Her high heels revealed her slender legs, fair skin, and curvy figure.

Ci Wencai was stunned for a moment, staring at Ren Tingting with shining eyes, with no room for anyone else in his eyes.

After Ren Tingting sat down, Wencai still looked at Ren Tingting's chest and murmured involuntarily:

"It's really big!"

"Ah!" Uncle Jiu came closer and stepped on Wencai's foot when he heard it, reminding him not to act like a pig.

Ren Tingting also discovered Wencai's misconduct, glared at Wencai, then covered her chest, and then shouted to Lin Hao:

"Cousin, come sit here with me!"

Lin Hao then sat down next to Ren Tingting, blocking Wencai's gaze.

"Eh!" Wencai then realized that Ren Tingting came here with Lin Hao. Seeing the intimacy between the two, his heart instantly broke into eight pieces. Before Wencai had time to feel sad, Uncle Jiu secretly stepped on this unpromising apprentice again. He was drooling, it was so embarrassing!
Then Lin Hao and Ren Tingting came and sat down, and Uncle Jiu realized that the person Lin Hao had just mentioned was actually going to meet Ren Tingting.

"Ha, Xiaohao and Tingting are here too. Come, meet Uncle Jiu!" When Ren Fa saw his daughter and Lin Hao coming together, he quickly called them over to greet them.

"Hello, Uncle Jiu!" Ren Tingting greeted him charmingly, and then asked curiously, "Uncle Jiu, are there really monsters and demons in this world?"

Ren Tingting knew that Lin Hao was learning Taoism from Uncle Jiu. She was originally taught not to believe in ghosts and gods.

But every time she thought of the magic of Lin Hao's paper horse, she couldn't help but want to find him to learn more, so she was also very curious about Uncle Jiu.

"Of course there is!" Uncle Jiu said without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Ren Tingting immediately asked expectantly:

"I heard that my cousin is learning Taoism from you. Can I become your disciple?"

"Great, great!" Wencai, who was standing by, was very happy when he heard that such a beautiful girl wanted to study Taoism with him in the charity cemetery, and he nodded quickly.

"Well, you're good!" Then Wencai was hit on the head again.

Then Uncle Jiu glanced at Ren Fa, then turned around and said to Ren Tingting earnestly:

"Tingting, practicing Taoism is hard work, and it also depends on talent. Look, Wencai has been learning Taoism from me for more than ten years, but he is still not as good as Lin Hao's achievements in just ten days!"

"Oh! Is that so! Then Uncle Jiu, do you think I have talent?" Ren Tingting was still unwilling to give up and looked at Uncle Jiu with anticipation.

"Uh~, this is hard to judge, let's talk about it when we have a chance!"

In fact, Uncle Jiu was not very happy about it. After all, he needed Ren Fa's consent to become his disciple, and it was too deeply involved with his family, and the cause and effect were difficult to cut off.

But he was a little hesitant in his heart, afraid that Ren Tingting was a cultivation genius like Lin Hao. If he refused directly, he would be slapped in the face again.

However, Uncle Jiu's answer immediately made Ren Tingting feel disappointed.

"Okay, okay, let's order food first and then talk while we eat!" Mr. Ren on the side tried to smooth things over and asked the waiter to bring the menu.

In fact, Ren Fa was not opposed to his daughter wanting to learn Taoism from Uncle Jiu, but since Uncle Jiu did not agree directly, he did not force her.

At this time, the waiter handed over the menu, and Ren Tingting said without thinking:

"A cup of coffee and a piece of cake!"

"Give me a cup of coffee and some egg tarts too!" After Mr. Ren finished ordering, he handed the menu to Uncle Jiu.

As a result, Uncle Jiu saw that it was all written in English, and he was immediately embarrassed. He originally wanted to send something similar to Ren, but at this time he heard Lin Hao say:

"Master, I don't think this western restaurant has the dishes you like. Let me recommend some for you!"

Lin Hao took the menu from Uncle Jiu calmly and gave him a way out.

Suddenly, Uncle Jiu's stiff facial muscles relaxed.

"Well, okay, let's order Wencai's as well!" Uncle Jiu gave the order directly, fearing that Wencai would continue to embarrass himself.

"Master, would you like coffee or tea?" Lin Hao asked casually.

Before Uncle Jiu spoke, Wencai said without thinking:
"Since we're here, of course we're going to drink coffee. If you want tea, we can make some when we get home!"

Uncle Jiu also felt that what Wencai said made sense. Of course he had to try the coffee when he came here. It would be better to go back and make his own tea!

Lin Hao smiled when he saw this, glanced at the menu and said:
"Okay, give us three cups of coffee, and tiramisu, fruit mousse cake, and chocolate croissant!"

Lin Hao pointed at the items on the menu and ordered with ease.

"Cousin, you can actually understand foreign languages?" Seeing Lin Hao's familiar look when ordering food, Ren Tingting looked at Lin Hao in surprise, as if she had discovered a new continent.

After all, the cousin she knew had never even attended elementary school and had just attended a private school, but now he can speak foreign languages ​​and it seems like he has become a different person.

"As a human being, you always need to learn more to keep up with the changes and developments of the times, just like my cousin also learned makeup techniques!"

Lin Hao spoke lightly, but Ren Tingting's eyes were full of stars. She felt that apart from Lin Hao, there was no one else in the town she could talk to, and that she and Lin Hao were the only ones she had a common language with.

Who can resist a cousin who is handsome, motivated and mysterious?

"Wow, cousin, you are so talented!"

"Yes, I didn't expect that you, Lin Hao, are now well-versed in both Chinese and Western culture. If your aunt in heaven knew about this, she would be pleased!" Ren Fa, who was standing aside, looked at Lin Hao with a more pleasing look.

"Uncle, my ability is not good enough in front of you. You are a wealthy businessman in the provincial capital!"

Lin Hao said this modestly, which immediately made Uncle Jiu and Ren Fa have a better impression of him.

At this time, the coffee had not been served yet, so Ren Fa said:
"Uncle Jiu, regarding the matter of reburial of my late father, what day would be best?"

"It's better to think about this kind of thing again. As the saying goes, it's better to be still than to move."

Uncle Jiu still wanted to give some advice. After all, if the relocation of graves was not done properly, it would really cause trouble.

In fact, Ren Fa had almost forgotten about the relocation of the grave, but his business had been going downhill recently, so he found a Feng Shui master, who suggested that he relocate the grave, and that’s when this happened.

Ren Fa looked bitter and said:
"Twenty years ago, the Feng Shui master said that the grave must be moved when the time comes. This will be good for future generations. I have to ask Uncle Jiu to help with this matter!!"

Uncle Jiu saw this and understood that Ren Fa was determined to move the burial site, so he pondered for a moment, then made some calculations and said:

"Three days from now is a good day, so let's break ground three days from now. I also need to go back and make preparations!"

"Uncle Jiu, just tell me what you need to prepare!" Ren Fa was not short of money. When Ren Fa heard Uncle Jiu's agreement, he immediately cooperated and took on the responsibility.

"Then what else do we need to prepare?" Ren Fa nodded and asked.

However, Wencai on the side said inappropriately: "Of course, prepare money!"

Ren Fa was stunned when he heard this, and Uncle Jiu glared at Wencai fiercely. How could he say such inappropriate words?

Then he glared at Wencai and said unhappily:
"How much money do you want?"

Wencai didn't react and immediately stretched out three fingers. Just as he was about to speak, he saw his master glaring at him. He immediately shrank his nose like a deflated ball.

"Uncle-in-law, why don't you advance part of the fees first. Master will need to purchase materials to set up the formation!" After Lin Hao's reminder, Ren Fa immediately understood.

Then he smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I'll give you thirty dollars first. If it's not enough, let Lin Hao come to me anytime!"

"Then I'll trouble Uncle Jiu with this matter!" Ren Fa also understood. After all, he was a businessman, and it did cost money to prepare materials.

At this time, a waiter came over and whispered to Ren Fa:
"Master Ren, Huang Baiwan is coming!"

Then Ren Fa nodded and said to everyone:

"I'm going to say hello to my friends and will be right over!"

Then he said to Lin Hao: "Xiao Hao, take good care of your master and Tingting, I will be here soon!"

Lin Hao smiled and said, "Uncle-in-law, you can go with peace of mind! And leave Tingting to me, I will make sure she doesn't suffer any loss!"
