Mo Shouchen asked doubtfully: "The zombies here all die at about the same time, why is the village chief so powerful?"

Wencai thought for a moment and replied: "I heard my adoptive father say that the village chief of Lijia Village is not only the inheritance of position, but also the inheritance of ability."

"Inheritance of ability? What does it mean?"

Wen Cai glanced at the tablet in Mo Shouchen's hand, and then said: "When each generation of village chiefs in Lijia Village leaves office, they will complete the handover with the new village chief in the ancestral hall. After the handover, the new village chief will gain a very powerful power.

."

"And even if the current village chief dies unexpectedly, as long as the villagers of Lijia Village elect a new village chief, the chosen village chief will gain strength after entering the ancestral hall."

"Is it so magical? How strong is the power you mentioned?" Mo Shouchen asked curiously.

"I don't know much about it, but I heard from my adoptive father that many years ago, a group of horse thieves wanted to attack Lijia Village. The village chief at that time drove more than ten horse thieves with knives out of the village with a pole. Later, this happened

The gangsters all walked around when passing by Lijia Village."

Although it sounds a bit fantasy, the village chief who turned into a zombie is indeed stronger than the other zombies in Lijia Village. This may really be related to the power that Wen Cai said can be passed down.

But the tragedy is that now all the villagers in Lijia Village have turned into zombies. It seems that the power that can be passed down will be lost.

The horse was bitten to death by a zombie, and Mo Shouchen and Wencai had no choice but to walk back to Hongyue Town.

If it were Mo Shouchen himself, he could run back from the distance of seventy miles.

But now he still had to take Wencai with him, so by the time he returned to Hongyue Town, it was almost noon of the next day.

After walking all night, Wencai was exhausted, so as soon as he arrived in Hongyue Town, he said hello to Mo Shouchen and went home to sleep.

Mo Shouchen walked alone to the Marshal's Mansion. When he passed the vegetable market, he found that the small square was full of people again.

Standing outside the crowd, I tiptoed and looked inside. It was the liar Taoist priest from the day before yesterday who was selling Taoist Priest Qingxin's charms again, and the price had increased to five yuan per charm.

Someone in the crowd said dissatisfiedly: "A charm sells for five oceans. Isn't it a bit too expensive?"

The liar Taoist priest explained earnestly: "Do you know how much effort it takes Taoist Qingxin to draw a charm? Five yuan is already very cheap. Don't forget, there were many people relying on Taoist Qingxin the night before."

The talisman escaped disaster."

"But didn't we only sell one piece of ocean the day before yesterday?" Someone else raised a question.

"The day before yesterday was because someone with ulterior motives caused trouble."

"Ultimate motives? I think that young man is obviously a good person. He helped Hongyue Town kill zombies the night before yesterday." This time it was the father of the child who couldn't afford the charm the day before yesterday who spoke.

The liar Taoist priest snorted coldly and said: "He is the only one who kills zombies. To tell you the truth, that kid is a charlatan, and he also paid the price for what he did. Just last night, he died in Lijiacun

Already."

It is estimated that the liar Taoist priest saw that Mo Shouchen had not come back yet, so he mistakenly thought that he had been killed by the zombies in Lijiacun.

When Mo Shouchen heard that the liar Taoist priest actually cursed himself to death in public, he was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and went over to teach this guy a lesson.

But just as he was about to squeeze into the crowd, someone pushed his way to the side of the liar Taoist priest before him.

"The Taoist method is used to save the common people. In order to make a living, it is understandable to accept a little token money. But your ordinary corpse-repelling charm is sold for five oceans. Isn't it a bit too much?"

Mo Shouchen saw that the person speaking was a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a square face, and very simple clothes.

Although this person looks dusty, there is a resolute and upright air between his brows, giving people a particularly reliable feeling.

Mo Shouchen became interested in this middle-aged man's behavior, so he decided to take a look at the situation first.

The liar Taoist priest looked sideways at the middle-aged man in front of him, and then said disdainfully: "Who are you? You come here and talk nonsense."

"Who are you talking about?"

A handsome young man carrying a bag rushed out from the crowd. He looked like he was about to hit someone, so he must be very close to the middle-aged man.

"Qiu Sheng, don't be rude!"

The middle-aged man stopped the young man named Qiu Sheng with his hand, and then he cupped his hand to the liar Taoist priest and said politely: "I have no other intention. I just hope that you can adhere to the Taoist style of benefiting the world and benefiting the people and lower the price of the charms.

I believe everyone will also thank you."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, people around him also responded, hoping that the liar Taoist priest could lower the price of the charm.

But the liar Taoist priest was unmoved. He said with a bad attitude: "Lower it? Do you think Taoist Master Qingxin's spell is a cabbage on the street? Just drop it! If you don't buy it, get away from me."

, don’t stop me from selling charms!”

"Master, this kid is too arrogant, let me teach him a lesson!"

Qiu Sheng couldn't help but wanted to take action again, but the middle-aged man stopped him again and pulled him aside.

Qiu Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "Master, he pointed his nose at you and scolded you. You can bear this tone, but I can't bear it!"

"Don't be impulsive. There is no need to argue with this kind of person!"

Although Qiu Sheng was young and strong, he was unable to break free after being grabbed by the thin middle-aged man's wrist.

"Then let's forget it?" Qiu Sheng said unwillingly.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Take out the charms we brought."

"What are you doing with the talisman at this time..."

Qiu Sheng suddenly stopped mid-sentence, and then he showed an expression of sudden realization.

"Oh! Master, you want to..."

"Stop talking nonsense and take it out quickly!" the middle-aged man urged.

Qiu Sheng obediently took out a pile of talismans, cleared his throat, and then shouted loudly: "Authentic Taoist corpse-suppressing talismans, 5 copper yuan each, 5 copper yuan each!"

Hearing the cries, the swindler Taoist priest frowned. He was selling 5 ocean dollars here, but 5 copper dollars there, a difference of a hundred times. Isn't this a ruthless attempt to steal his own business?

However, he did not panic, but said with a sneer: "You think just drawing a few strokes on yellow paper can be a charm? It's really ridiculous. Don't believe them. They are just two charlatans. If their charms are useful for zombies,

I will walk around Hongyue Town while standing on my head."

After hearing what the liar Taoist priest said, several people who were planning to go there to buy charms also showed doubtful expressions.

Although selling charms at high prices is not very authentic, Taoist Master Qingxin is somewhat famous in this area, and the charms are indeed effective.

Although the charms of the other two people were sold cheaply, they were all strangers. If, as the Taoist priest said, the charms they sold were ineffective, wouldn't the money be wasted?

Seeing that everyone around him couldn't believe the middle-aged man, the liar Taoist priest showed a proud expression.
