Guards, officials, a sedan chair, and a heavy golden coffin approached from afar.
Master Simu was already standing in front of the door, looking around.
Upon seeing the conspicuous coffin procession, she turned and called out:
"Jiale, Qiusheng, Wencai, you three rascals, come out here right now! Your Uncle Qianhe has arrived!"
The four of them hurriedly went out and came to the roadside to greet him. Even Monk Ikkyu led Jingjing out of his house.
Just at this time.
The middle-aged Taoist priest, dressed in an apricot-yellow robe, also spotted the four eyes on the roadside from afar.
He waved and shouted, "Senior Brother!"
This Taoist priest was none other than Qianhe, the junior brother of Uncle Nine and Four Eyes.
"Junior brother! It's been a long time!"
"Yes, brother."
The two exchanged a Taoist salute, both with expressions of excitement on their faces.
It has been three years since we last met.
The disciples of Maoshan are scattered in all directions, fighting demons and monsters, and have always been separated more often than together.
P.S.: The royal zombies are arriving soon!

"I've met Uncle Master!"
Jiale and the other two raised their hands high above their heads, showing respect to the younger generation.
Qianhe smiled and returned the greetings one by one, but when she saw Qiusheng and Wencai, she was immediately surprised.
"Isn't this Senior Brother Lin's disciple? How come he's here with you, Senior Brother?"
Si Mu scratched his head and laughed:
"These two good-for-nothing brats... were bewitched by a fox demon a while ago and kidnapped to her cave. They even lost some of their yang energy, so they're recuperating here for now."
His words were concise and to the point, revealing the truth while avoiding any embarrassing parts, demonstrating his cunning and shrewdness.
They've taken the art of language to a whole new level.
"After going out to gain experience, you should still be careful in the future, and not let lust cloud your judgment!"
Qianhe suddenly realized what was happening and gave instructions to his two junior disciples.
"Yes, uncle."
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai readily agreed, wishing they could disappear into a crack in the ground.
Their gazes towards each other were filled with resentment, and they silently grumbled to themselves:
Why don't you explain why we were captured and brought to this cave? Who are we here to rescue?
Uncle-Master, you haven't mentioned at all that you were also captured and taken to the fox demon's cave...
"Hey! Why did you stop?"
At this moment, from the rear of the convoy, a man with a yellow turban on his head, a hoarse voice, and a somewhat effeminate tone shouted.
Wencai and Qiusheng pointed at him, clearly indicating that he was a eunuch.
Master Qianhe explained, “Manager Wu, who is in charge of ‘097,’ asked my senior brother to lend me some glutinous rice.”
"Sticky rice?"
The steward repeated in a low voice, but he still couldn't figure out what the glutinous rice was for.
All that could be heard from the young prince in the sedan chair behind us was:
"Minister Wu, let's stop and rest for a while."
Wu Shilang had no choice but to obey and told the soldiers and guards to rest on the spot.
Master Simu instructed Jiale to fetch glutinous rice.
He himself went to the golden coffin, looked at Qianhe, and said softly.
"A bronze-cornered, gold-plated coffin, bound with an ink-line net... could it be that inside is..."
Chizuru sighed softly and nodded, saying, "That's right, it's a zombie."
Four Eyes frowned even more deeply. "Then why not burn it?"
Zombies are evil creatures, and even more so, vicious beings devoid of humanity.
The most terrifying thing is that the corpse poison in his body can also spread.
Leaving zombies alive for even a day could cause a major disaster.
One of the precepts of Maoshan is that any mutated corpse encountered must be burned, lychees must be set ablaze, and dust must rise from the vast ocean.
"Senior brother, you may not know this, but this zombie is a member of the royal family guarding the frontier. Therefore, it cannot be burned. It must be transported to the capital as soon as possible and await the emperor's judgment."
Chizuru said.
He understood his senior brother's concerns perfectly well.
Moreover, zombies with royal bloodlines possess a trace of royal dragon aura.
After turning into a zombie, it becomes several times stronger than a regular zombie.
Back then, he used all his Taoist magic, with the help of his four disciples, to seal him into the coffin.
Seeing that his junior brother understood the implications, Si Mu didn't say anything more.
"Master Qianhe, why don't you take down the tent so the coffin can absorb more sunlight and reduce the corpse's aura?"
The monk Ikkyu circled the coffin, looked around, and said with a smile.
The sun is shining brightly now; basking in the sun is beneficial and harmless.
"Oh? Thank you for your guidance, Master!"
Chizuru suddenly realized what was happening, and then instructed his disciples to take down the tent.
Si Mu curled his lip and snorted, "You think you're the only one who knows? I don't?"
Seeing them bickering, Chizuru shook her head and smiled.
"By the way, senior brother, have you already met junior brother?"
"Yeah, I've seen it."
"Tell me quickly, how is Junior Brother?"
Chizuru looked on with curiosity. He only knew that he had a junior brother from his master's letters before his death.
Moreover, the master thinks highly of his junior brother.
They even called him: the vanguard of the Taoist altar, the great general of Maoshan.
These eight words are enough to show that the junior brother is special in the master's eyes.
“Junior Brother Lin previously stayed at Senior Brother Lin’s house. Senior Brother Lin said that he was destined to be a Dao Ancestor and a reincarnation of an immortal.”
Si Mu shrugged and said earnestly, "I think Senior Brother is right."
"what?!"
Chizuru looked at Yoshimu with disbelief, trying to find some trace of a joke on his face.
However, both his eyes and expression were serious and earnest.
"How is this possible?" Chizuru murmured.
The potential to become a Dao Ancestor!
A reincarnation of an immortal!
Such praise is off the charts, and yet Senior Brother Four Eyes actually thinks Senior Brother Lin is right...
Is my junior brother really that amazing?
Just as Chizuru's heart was filled with turmoil...
Behind him, Wu Shilang's impatient urging voice rang out again.
"You've been resting for so long! Why are you still saying so much? Let's set off, let's set off!"
Jiale also rushed over upon hearing the news and presented his uncle with a bulging bag of glutinous rice.
"Thank you very much, senior brother. I must meet junior brother in person someday."
Chizuru accepted the rice and continued her journey with the caravan.
Watching the royal procession carrying the corpses depart, Jiale set his sights on the golden coffin.
"This coffin is beautiful; it must be very valuable!"
"Of course, it's made of gold."
