From the beginning of this turbid world, the Taoist priest descended the mountain.

"The world is in chaos now, and all sorts of monsters and demons are out there. Back then, Emperor Long made a blood pact with a group of monsters and demons to protect the Great Xu dynasty. He granted them sacred mountains and rivers to cultivate. The low-life sects you see now, on the surface, worship their patriarchs, but in reality, they are all monsters and demons standing behind them. After the establishment of the Republic of China, these things became more restrained, but they still operate in the shadows. The 'incense-burning disciples' in these gangs are paid by the gangs to feed the monsters and demons with their lives when it matters, in exchange for their blood offerings. They are euphemistically called 'incense-burning disciples.'"

After listening to Ma Buyu's explanation, Lin Ye was stunned. Could this thing really be used like this?

Ma smiled but it wasn't a secret within the Yin Gate.

It's just that it sounds really shocking to ordinary people.

He stepped forward and said, "To tell you the truth, my great-grandmother sent me a message last night saying that the corpse-transporter from western Hunan has been murdered. The body needs to be sent back, otherwise it will be a disaster if it turns into a zombie en route."

He looked at the yellow imperial edict talismans on the foreheads of the two living corpses, smacked his lips, and thought to himself.

Fortunately, there was this ignorant kid here who beat the leader of the Tan'er Sect to death in a chaotic fight; otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to show his face.

Judging from the aura emanating from this young man, he doesn't seem like an ordinary martial arts disciple. He must be the closed-door disciple of some master.

Moreover, having such a precious talisman in hand must mean that he is highly appreciated and favored by the elders of the martial arts school.

Even if you can't befriend such a person, there's no need to offend them.

The Ma family wanted to dispose of the bodies, and the forestry department had no objection.

Just now, his panel showed the results.

The corpse-driving master of western Hunan is dead, and leaving these corpses here is just troublesome, so let the Ma family take them away directly.

Regardless of whether what Ma Buyu said is true or false, the important thing is not to stay in Qingshi Town and cause trouble for people.

The skills of the Ma family disciples are well-regarded in this area.

Ma Buyu called over his men to carry the coffin. Before carrying the coffin, he lit four sticks of incense in front of the two frozen corpses.

The body was lifted and placed back into the coffin on the ground. New talismans were pasted on the coffin, and after the coffin lid was put on, the coffin was carried on its journey.

Lin Ye noticed that the talismans used by Ma Buyu and the others were different from those drawn by his master.

It's even more sloppy than my own.

(This hastily made thing doesn't convey a trace of the spirit of the "Celestial Master Daoist True Lord." It's barely better than a shroud. After the Twelve Demons and Monsters devoured the Four Lords and came ashore, other demons and monsters wanted to follow suit, unaware that they too were becoming food for the "Twelve True Lords"...)

Ma Buyu and Lin Ye collected the corpses of the Tan'er Sect members. He took a small white porcelain bottle from one of his men and poured the powder inside directly onto the corpses.

As he chanted a spell in a low voice, the corpse on the ground spontaneously combusted.

wisps of white smoke rose up, burning the corpses of these believers to ashes.

Lin Ye looked at Ma Buyu. Wasn't it said that this disciple of the Ma family was a spirit-bearer from beyond the Great Wall? His skill in using the corpse-dissolving powder was so adept.

Ma Buyu smiled and explained, "Disciples of the Ma family have traveled the world extensively and know a little bit about everything. More friends mean more opportunities, more skills mean more food. I still don't know your name, junior brother."

"Mei Family Rice Shop, Uncle Mei Cailu, my name is Mei Qianhua."

The forestry worker's eyes were sincere and simple.

Upon hearing this, Ma Buyu was taken aback.

Although the name is strange, judging from his skill just now, he is obviously close to the "Ming Jin" level among martial arts masters. This name must have been given by a master.

"Mei Qianhua, what a fine name! Qian is the first position in the hexagram, and Hua also implies the grandeur of the Five Sacred Mountains. It seems you want to be the best in this martial arts world. Hope we meet again someday."

After saying this, Ma Buyu bowed to Lin Ye and then got into a sedan chair and left.

forestry:"……"

No wonder he's wearing a suit; he's cultured. He even managed to connect the dots.

Anyway, the most troublesome matter of raising the three corpses has been taken over by someone else. I can just tell my senior brother the truth when I get back.

It's just a bit of a pity that the corpse-driver from western Hunan was a decent fellow villager, but he ended up being harmed by the Tan'er Sect after a trip to Goose City.

I originally wanted to quietly learn some skills to deal with the facial sores on my body.

It turns out that in this world, if you don't go towards it, it comes towards you.

If you don't provoke the Tan'er Cult, they will come to harm you on their own.

Then kill them!

Buddhists believe in karma and reincarnation, and therefore refrain from killing. But he's a Taoist priest; those who cultivate the Tao strive for enlightenment in this very life!

In an instant, my mind became clear.

(A single thought of affliction leads to the eight sufferings of humanity. Having walked through this turbid world for too long, a few strands of "affliction turbidity" have arisen in your heart. Fortunately, your mind is clear, and you are in daily contact with the remnants of the "Celestial Master's Taoist True Lord," which provides some immunity.)

(The Celestial Master Daoist True Lord once summoned the Southern Ocean Evil Spirit True Lord and the Northern Horse True Lord from beyond the Great Wall to discuss Daoist practices. After that night, they disappeared without a trace, and thereafter the twelve True Lords began to vanish one by one.)

[Yearly Ruler: Forestry]

[Agility: 4]

[Divine Sense: 3] (Method: Spiritual Vision)

After returning to the mortuary, I spent some time explaining to my senior brother and junior brother that the Ma family disciples had taken action and removed the body.

The two breathed a sigh of relief and expressed their sadness at the murder of the Xiangxi corpse driver.

However, when the name Ma Buyu was mentioned, the senior brother's expression instantly turned strange.

"The Ma family has been acting very strangely lately, especially Ma Buyu. Junior brother, you'd better not get too close to him. Although we are worldly people, we are still cultivators, and it is most important for us to be pure of heart and have few desires."

"Forehead……"

Senior Brother, if you know any gossip, just tell me.

As a result, the eldest brother's gentlemanly nature relapsed, and he insisted that it was inconvenient to gossip behind people's backs.

It wasn't until later that Sanbao secretly told him that Ma Buyu had a bad reputation in the circle.

As the second son of the Ma family, the family focused on cultivating his elder brother, Ma Buxuan, while adopting a more hands-off approach to his upbringing.

So, when Ma Buyu had nothing to do, he would bring some women from brothels to the house his family owned in Hanjiang City, along with a few friends from his circle. Whether they were capable or not, they all had to do something.

Definitely a "Ma Jia Yin Pa Ge" (a nickname implying someone who is very popular).

Lin Ye was shocked, and then declared righteously that if he were to witness it, he would definitely investigate thoroughly and condemn the man!

After that, Lin Ye returned to his room.

Let's check what we've gained this time.

This time, not only were three troublesome zombies driven away, but most importantly, a [tainted item], the 'Spiritual Umbilical Cord', was also obtained.

(【Evil Yin Umbilical Cord】, infant blood, causing nighttime crying. He was made into an evil object by his own father to attract evil spirits and bring misfortune shortly after birth. Eat the evil umbilical cord with whole grains, then drink night wine. Walk at a crossroads at midnight, and you may find some strange things.)

(Should the [Spiritual Yin Umbilical Cord] be refined in the Life Fire Furnace?)

The forestry department thinks it's best not to try this thing.

He's a perfectly normal person. Eating this with rice... sorry, the image is too beautiful.

(Like [Celestial Master Daoist True Lord], you always pretend to be a normal person when you're insane. You hesitantly throw the [Evil Yin Umbilical Cord] into the Life Fire Furnace, with a hint of reluctance. After all, this is your first impure artifact. You refine the impure energy. Strength +1, Agility +1)

(As the life-fire flickers, you seem to see a few glimpses of the Mind-Monkey's intent. If you could master other related martial arts techniques, it might help you understand the Mind-Monkey's method.)

(Your [Fate Turbid Evil Thoughts] have been devouring the five turbid energies, greatly increasing their incubation rate. Current [Incubation Rate: 10%])

Actually, after the evil spirits were dealt with, the level of negative thoughts in my life had already increased to 4%, and now it is 10%.

However, I never expected that after refining the turbid energy, I could actually increase the incubation level of this [Fate Turbid Evil Thought].

This thing doesn't seem as bad as I thought.

Just then, Sanbao's voice came from outside.

At this moment, his strength and vitality had both reached 7 points. He only needed 3 more points to consider breaking through to the mortal realm.

Just then, Sanbao's voice came from outside.

"Master, you're finally back!"
