Chapter 35: Persevering Jinyiwei

When Yu Sheng walked out of the kitchen, these passers-by from the Great Wall of Salt were already too strong to walk.

The dark-faced strong man gave Yu Sheng a thumbs up, burped and said, "The shopkeeper, your cooking skills are really good."

Yu Sheng smiled and said, "Is the wine worth it?"

The strong man said: "It's worth it, it's so worth it. All the fatigue is gone. I can't wait for them to leave now."

He looked around and then lowered his voice, "Shopkeeper, if you can't sell the secret recipe, I can offer you a big price."

"Not for sale." Yu Sheng shook his head, not bothering to explain that the secret recipe was not responsible for the magic.

The strong man also expected it. He smiled softly and changed the topic, "Shopkeeper, do you have a shop with a big room?"

"Yes, thirty dollars a night."

The price was quite fair, and the strong man nodded in agreement.

Yu Sheng led them to the backyard and pushed open a room. Inside was a row of earthen kangs, where fifty people could lie down without any problem.

The kang was covered with asparagus, and Yu Sheng suddenly realized where the donkey's asparagus came from.

After three days and three nights of anxious walking, the travelers were already tired. They didn't care about the dust on their bedding, climbed up and fell asleep.

"Nothing is easy." Yu Sheng shook his head and returned to the lobby, where he saw Jin Yiwei sitting at the long table eating.

"I finally understand why Maomao relies on you." The commander of the Jinyiwei took a mouthful of oil and was full of praise when paying the bill.

The big man from Jin Yiwei came over, stared at Yu Sheng, and said: "Commander, are we not going to pursue the case of Wu Zhu's disappearance?"

"Is there anything to investigate?" the commander said. "If he had died, his soul would have been recalled by the lingering ghosts of the witch academy."

"Yes, I don't know where I can live happily." Yu Sheng agreed.

"Ya, ya?" the commander thought after thinking, don't say it, he was very easy to curse.

"Aren't we so powerful and arrogant? Let them check it out on their own." The commander of the Jinyiwei said in an annoyed tone.

The Celestial Master told Yu Sheng that the witch academy continued to grow in Yangzhou City, overwhelming the exorcists and Celestial Masters, and only the Jin Yiwei could compete.

However, as an outsider who believed in ghosts and gods, the witch house always tempted the people to change their beliefs, and had the hidden intention of replacing the city lord, which made Jin Yiwei very afraid.

This big man in Jinyiwei didn't know why, but he was a little reluctant.

When the commander saw this, he said: "How about this, I leave you here to investigate?"

The big man from Jin Yiwei looked at Yu Sheng and said seriously: "Commander, don't worry, I will get to the bottom of it."

"Don't, don't." Seeing that this kid was going to fight for the rest of his life, the commander of the Jinyiwei hurriedly waved his hands, fearing that Maomao would go back and complain.

He pointed to the road outside, "Your main task is to protect the safety of the townspeople. There will be more and more people passing through the town in the future, and there is no guarantee that there will be no provocations and troubles."

The big man from Jin Yiwei nodded, "Don't worry, Commander, I will definitely protect the safety of the townspeople."

"Hey, that's right." Commander Jin Yiwei nodded happily.

"At the same time, trace the whereabouts of Wu Zhu."

The commander was choked.

He hinted at the big man's head to Yu Sheng, shook his index finger, and kicked the big man on the butt in anger, "Damn it, you don't know what to do."

He would never leave Jin Yiwei for the rest of his life, so in the end, Li Zheng arranged for him to live opposite the inn, where he happened to be guarding the archway and stone bridge.

Yu Sheng knew that this grandson was targeting him, but Yu Sheng also had a trick up his sleeve.

He found a cloth bag and put all of Fat Witch Zhu's things in it, and after signing many unequal treaties, he got Mao Mao's promise to stay with him.

In the afternoon, I left Tianshi to look after the store, and Yu Sheng went out with his farm tools on his shoulders, when he met a handsome man squatting at the door.

When he saw Yu Sheng come out, he asked casually: "Shopkeeper, what are you going to do?"

Yu Sheng had a bad idea and said casually: "Dig a hole."

"Oh, dig a hole, what are you going to bury?" The big man from Jin Yiwei looked at the sun and asked casually.

"Bury...anything..." Yu Sheng quickly stopped, looked at the sun, and said, "Well, the sun is pretty good today."

has a problem!

The big man from Jin Yiwei suddenly stood up, grabbed Yu Sheng's farm tools and said, "Shopkeeper, let me help you."

"No, no need." Yu Sheng looked panicked and waved his hands repeatedly.

"You're welcome, I have nothing to do, so I should help you," said the big man in Jinyiwei.

Just when he saw Li Zheng leading someone over, Yu Sheng turned around and said, "Okay, let's go."

Jin Yiwei followed Yu Sheng. They walked across the stone bridge, crossed the field ridge, and walked south. They didn't stop until they saw the tombs.

The Jin Yiwei looked around, preparing to memorize the location so that they could steal the stolen goods, but not both the people and the corpses.

Yu Sheng turned around and asked Li Zheng, who was walking over, "Where to dig?"

"Hey." Jin Yiwei then saw the back and said secretly: "A gang committed a crime?"

The town's cemeteries are also organized according to seniority, but the tomb of Mr. Yu Sheng's family is not here, but on the shore of the lake across the road.

At that time, Yu Sheng was afraid that the old man's tomb would be flooded. In the middle of the night, he dreamed that his feet were cold and frightened him, so he suggested moving to another place.

But the old man's soul was still there, and when he heard Yu Sheng's suggestion, he became furious and scolded Yu Sheng for being unfilial.

The old man even spoke without hesitation and greeted Yu Sheng's eight generations of ancestors. His seven generations of ancestors finally had to force Yu Sheng to burn paper to apologize for their ancestors.

The distance was measured in steps. After walking a few steps to the left and right, he stopped at a place, inserted the shovel and said, "Here."

Yu Sheng pushed Jin Yiwei, "Get to work quickly."

The big man in Jinyiwei did all the tricks, waved his arms and started working without saying a word.

Needless to say, people with inner strength are different. They can dig up soil faster than farmers who dig the soil every day.

Li Zheng took the opportunity to be lazy and said to Yu Sheng, who had been lazy all this time: "Okay, Xiao Yu'er, I found someone who can do it."

While they were chatting in Yu Sheng, the big man from Jinyiwei took the opportunity to whisper to the fourth brother next to him, "What are you digging a hole for?"

"Bury people." The fourth brother wondered, why would he dig a grave in a cemetery? This man must be stupid.

Jin Yiwei confirmed that these people were indeed accomplices.

Li Zheng was idle for a while and said, "I'm going to see your old man."

The farmland in Lizheng is not here, and I usually don’t come here unless it’s the New Year or the holidays, but since I’m here, it’s a good time to catch up on old times.

Not long after Li Zheng passed by, he suddenly shouted, "Come quickly, something happened, Xiao Yu'er, come quickly."

When the townspeople heard this, they picked up their farm tools and ran to the other side of the road.

Yu Sheng rushed to the front, and he was light and healthy, unlike ordinary people, which made the big man in Jin Yiwei doubt him even more.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Yu Sheng rushed over quickly, breathing evenly without taking a breath.

Li Zheng pointed to the tomb under the tree, "Look."

Yu Sheng turned around to take a look and cursed loudly: "What kind of beast dared to dig into my ancestral grave?"

Digging into ancestral graves! This is a big taboo.

When the townspeople who were lagging behind heard this, they took three steps at a time and rushed over with their hoes in hand.

After taking a look, everyone looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought something was wrong," said the fourth brother, "Isn't it just two paw prints scratched by wild beasts?"

The townsman next to him said: "But this claw mark is too big. Li Laosan, come and see what kind of beast it is."

Li Laosan is an Orion. He came forward, looked up and down and said: "This paw print looks like a bamboo rat..."

"That's not right," said the fourth brother, "the bamboo rat we dragged back a few days ago was big enough, and its claws were not even half as big as this one."

"Yes, did the ancestor of the bamboo rat come down the mountain?" Everyone also said.

"Perhaps something in the water stepped on it when it crawled out?" someone else said.
