Uncle Jiu: I am Chen Yulou, the leader of the Xiangling gang

Chapter 61, Puppetry
"master!"

"Uncle Master!"

……

Seeing Taoist Simu coming out, Jiale and Chen Yulou hurried to greet him.

Taoist Simu glanced at the two of them and said, "Let's go back!"

Jiale and Chen Yulou hurriedly followed.

Qingqing quickly called out to Chen Yulou, "Brother Chen, why don't you finish your porridge before going back?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yulou turned around, glanced at Qingqing with a smile, and quickly caught up with Taoist Simu.

Eat porridge?

He didn't dare. If he ate the porridge, Taoist Simu might really think he wanted to become a monk.

After returning, Jiale hurriedly stepped forward and said to Taoist Simu: "Master, I think the master is not going to give up trying to persuade me to become a monk."

"Dare he?"

Taoist Simu immediately scolded, but then he turned around and hit Jiale on the head.

"You little bastard, I was fighting with that old bald donkey just now, and you were laughing so happily!"

Taoist Simu smiled and looked at Jia Le who was squatting on the ground with his head covered.

Jiale rubbed his head in pain, then quickly looked up and admitted his mistake, "Master, I was wrong!"

"Humph!"

Taoist Simu leaned over, pinched Jiale's ear, and lifted him up, saying, "Also, what time is it now? That old bald donkey has already eaten, and we're still eating cold food?"

Jiale quickly shook off Taoist Simu's hand, rubbed his ears, and said jokingly, "Master, I'll go cook now!"

Upon hearing this, Taoist Simu kicked Jiale on the butt and glared at him, "Then hurry up and go!"

Jiale suddenly felt pain in his head, ears, and buttocks. He didn't know where to rub his hands, so he could only run to the kitchen.

Chen Yulou couldn't help but laugh when he saw Jiale's funny look. He quickly looked at Taoist Simu and said, "Uncle, I'll go help my brother."

"Hey, stop!"

Taoist Simu hurriedly called out to Chen Yulou who was about to go to the kitchen.

Chen Yulou immediately turned around and looked at Taoist Simu.

Taoist Simu thought for a moment and asked, "Yulou, tell your uncle that you are not interested in becoming a monk, right?"

Chen Yulou quickly smiled and said, "Uncle Master, don't worry. Since I entered Mount Mao, I will be a disciple of Mount Mao for life. I have no interest in a pure-hearted, worldly-wise monk."

Upon hearing this, Taoist Simu immediately smiled and said, "That's good!"

"Those who practice Taoism must be firm in mind and resolve, and must not be easily shaken in their determination."

"However, even though you have no interest in Buddhism, you should still avoid contact with that old bald donkey Ikkyu. He's like a stone in a toilet, smelly and hard, and he's also very eloquent."

"You saw it just now. Your uncle and I were already pissed off by that old bald donkey's fallacies, let alone you."

"Forget it. I will teach you the basics of corpse-controlling and weapon-training techniques tonight. You should try to memorize them within two or three days, and then return to Renjia Town early. Once you have mastered these basics, I will teach you more advanced things." Taoist Simu thought for a moment and looked at Chen Yulou.

He was really a little worried that Chen Yuliu was fooled by the old bald monk Ikkyu. After all, there were many high-ranking Taoist priests in the history of Taoism who gave up Taoism and turned to Buddhism.

If Chen Yulou was really fooled, it would be a great loss for the entire Maoshan. After all, Chen Yulou was awarded the fifth-level Zi Lu and is expected to have the talent of a Heavenly Master in the future.

So, he has to be careful.

To be honest, if his strength wasn't on par with that old monk Ikkyu, he would really have hit Master Ikkyu on the head a few times today to teach the old bald monk a lesson.

Seeing that Taoist Simu was so worried about him joining Buddhism, Chen Yulou felt a little helpless. After all, as a time traveler, he didn't have a very good impression of Buddhism. With this deep-rooted idea, it was absolutely impossible for him to join Buddhism.

Vegetarianism? Disillusionment with the world?

Don't be ridiculous, he can't do that.

He was able to enter Maoshan because Maoshan was a place where one could practice Taoism and did not have so many inhumane and useless rules and regulations. Otherwise, even if Maoshan was a place where one could practice Taoism and even if Uncle Jiu was his disciple, he would not have entered Taoism.

Especially, at a time when the nation is in crisis, he still wants to do something that will go down in history!

Taoist Simu then turned his head and looked through the bamboo window at Master Ikkyu's house. Because the window was so transparent, he could clearly see Master Ikkyu and Qingqing eating porridge.

"This old bald donkey, it seems like he doesn't take me seriously. He seems to be enjoying his meal."

"I'll let you eat it!"

After Taoist Simu finished speaking, he walked towards the inner room with a wicked smile on his face.

Chen Yulou hurriedly followed out of curiosity and saw that after Taoist Simu came into the inner room, he began to fiddle with the tools for the ritual.

"Uncle Master, are you going to set up an altar and perform a ritual?" Chen Yulou asked in surprise.

Wait, is this going to deal with Master Ikkyu?
Sure enough, Taoist Simu glanced at Chen Yulou and said, "Of course, I'll teach that old bald donkey a lesson!"

Then, Taoist Simu pinched his two fingers together, and a silver thread appeared between his fingers.

It should be hair!
But, whose hair is this?

Wait, this can’t be Master Ikkyu’s hair!
Sure enough, Taoist Simu glanced at the puzzled Chen Yulou and said with a smile, "This is the hair of that old bald donkey. I took it from his clothes just now."

"By the way, Yulou, please watch carefully."

"What I'm going to use next is the puppet technique, which is one of the corpse control techniques. It can temporarily draw the three souls and seven spirits of a living being, thereby controlling the other party."

Puppetry!

Chen Yulou was a little surprised when he heard this, then nodded to Taoist Simu and said, "Uncle Master, I will take a closer look!"

Taoist Simu nodded slightly, and the next moment he quickly took out a piece of talisman paper with only an order written on it, and quickly put Master Ikkyu's hair into it. Then he took out a scarecrow and placed it on the table, then quickly picked up the talisman paper, rolled it up, held it in the air, and chanted a spell.

"Between heaven and earth, yin and yang are connected. I, following the order of the Supreme Lord Lao, summon the spirit of Ikkyu Sho-ling. Come to the altar quickly and obey my command!"

"disease!"

Before Taoist Simu could finish his spell, a bang was heard.

The talisman in his hand began to burn.

Taoist Simu quickly threw the burning talisman paper into the cinnabar, then quickly inserted his two fingers into the cinnabar, and quickly wiped the burning cinnabar across the scarecrow.

The next moment, Taoist Simu made a hand gesture with both hands and shouted at the scarecrow, "Get up!"

at the same time!

Master Ikkyu and Qingqing are drinking porridge.

"Master, you have offended Taoist Simu this time."

"Also, why do you insist on making Brother Chen become a monk?" Qingqing put down the spell and looked at Master Ikkyu and asked.

Master Ikkyu was not stupid. He knew that the girl really liked Chen Yulou, so naturally he didn't want her to become a monk.

"Qingqing, I can't tell you the reason."

"In short, Master needs to warn you that your Brother Chen is definitely not a good match. His speech and behavior are definitely not those of a farmer. At the same time, his eyes are like peach blossoms, which are the eyes of amorous people. It is impossible for him to stay with one person."

"So, Qingqing, you have to think twice. He is definitely not a good match."

"On the contrary, Jiale, although naughty, can stay with you for the rest of your life." Master Ikkyu glanced at Qingqing. He raised her since she was a child. Although they are master and apprentice, they are more like father and daughter. Naturally, he hopes that Qingqing can find a good home.

But Buddhism advocates letting things take their course, so he could only try to comfort Qingqing. If Qingqing didn't listen, then he could only say that this child was destined to have a love affair with Chen Yulou.
