Seeing this, Wencai looked at him with sympathy.
"I see, so that's how it is. You guys are just like me."
However, you guys are much more capable than me. I also encountered a ghost back then, and in the end, I was the only one left in my family.
If my master hadn't appeared and saved my life, I might have died there.
And also, it's because... sigh... never mind, I won't say anymore.
"But you've come here to become my disciples so you can go back and take revenge, right?"
Upon hearing this, the three of them nodded in unison.
However, Wencai shook his head and said:
"If you're only here to become my disciple and seek revenge, then forget about it. My master will never accept you!"
Upon hearing this, the three of them were greatly surprised, especially Liu Ruyan, who looked puzzled and said:
"Why, Brother Wencai, why won't Uncle Jiu take us in?"
Wen Cai said with a speechless expression:
"My master is a man who hates evil as if it were his enemy, but he doesn't just take on disciples indiscriminately. So far, he has only taken on the two of us."
In fact, Qiu Sheng and I weren't even directly taught; we were only taught some simple techniques.
Basically, all the disciples of Maoshan.
The master is very strict in accepting disciples; if you're only here for revenge, that's absolutely impossible.
You should know that cultivating the Tao is very difficult, and it must begin from a young age.
I see that you are all in your twenties, and your physical development is already complete.
Learning Taoist arts is even more difficult.
Most importantly, the cultivation of Tao requires a very long time.
Even for someone with exceptional talent, it would be impossible to succeed in less than ten or twenty years.
However, with your single-minded focus on revenge, it is even less likely that you will succeed.
Therefore, my master will never accept you. However, you can ask my master to help you subdue demons and monsters!
Upon hearing this, the three fell silent.
At this moment, Liu Ruyan spoke up:
"Is it really not going to work, Brother Wencai?"
As she spoke, she even gave a flirtatious wink, looking utterly pitiful.
Seeing this, Wencai's tone immediately changed, and he said:
"It's not impossible. If Miss Liu really wants to become a disciple, I can still talk to my master about it."
However, whether it will succeed...
At this moment, Wang Sheng took out several silver dollars, placed them on the table, and said:
"Brother Wencai, as long as we succeed, please accept this small token of our appreciation!"
Seeing this, Wen Cai's eyes lit up, and he immediately said...
"No problem, I'll figure something out when Master arrives!"
Upon hearing this, the three of them immediately began to speak kindly to Wencai with smiles on their faces.
Time passed quickly, little by little.
Just before noon, there was a knock on the door.
"Wencai, Wencai, open the door!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Wencai's face lit up with surprise, and he said:
"My master is back. Come on, I'll take you to see him."
After saying this, Wencai led Wang Sheng and the other two towards the door.
As the door opened, the figure inside was revealed.
A middle-aged man with a straight eyebrow and a very serious look was standing at the door.
As soon as Wencai opened the door, he called out with a smile:
"Master, you're back!"
Uncle Nine nodded, then his gaze fell on the three people behind Wen Cai. He frowned slightly, but didn't say anything more.
He simply said:
"Wencai, who are they? What brings them to the mortuary?"
Upon hearing this, Wencai immediately said:
"Master, I was just about to tell you about this."
They arrived very early this morning, saying they wanted to become your disciples, so they came!"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Nine immediately looked at the three of them and said:
"You want to become my disciples?"
After finishing, the three bowed respectfully to Uncle Nine and said...
"Uncle Jiu, hello, we are from..."
Then, the three of them repeated what they had said before, and then said:
"Please, Uncle Nine, accept us as your students?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Cai, who was standing to the side, quickly chimed in:
"Yes! Yes! Master, please accept them. It's perfect, I can have a junior brother or sister too!"
After giving it to him, Uncle Nine glared fiercely at Wencai and said:
"You bastard, is it me who's taking on the role of disciple, or are you? What, do you think you can make that decision for me?"
Upon hearing this, Wencai immediately shook his head and said:
"No, no, Master, I...I..."
Chapter 596 Uncle Nine, with his keen eyes and sharp mind
Looking at Wencai's stammering words, Uncle Jiu immediately understood that his disciple must have received some kind of benefit from him.
He then said, "You brat, come in with me!"
After saying that, he turned to the three men and said:
"Please wait a moment, everyone. Please wait in the living room. I'll be there shortly."
After hearing this, the three nodded and then went to the living room.
.......................................
After the three of them entered the living room, Jiang Yi said somewhat anxiously:
"Will he be unwilling to accept us?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng remained silent for a moment before saying:
"I don't know, but we'll have to wait and see to find out!"
However, even if there is only a slight possibility, we cannot give up.
After all, the three of us are all bound together; we share both glory and loss!
Furthermore, our system may eventually include more than just the three of us.
If we want to become leaders, we must be proficient in all aspects.
You must understand, this method is indispensable. Who knows if we will enter that terrifying world in the future?
Therefore, this method is something you absolutely must learn!
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan also spoke up:
"Yes, Brother Jiang Yi, we have no other choice."
In this kind of situation, only Uncle Nine is the most likely person to accept us as his apprentice.
If we were to go to the headquarters of those major sects, given our age, it would be impossible for us to succeed.
Those like Uncle Nine, who can make some decisions on their own after completing their apprenticeship, are the most likely candidates!
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi fell silent!
Meanwhile, inside the room, Uncle Nine looked at Wen Cai with a serious expression:
"Wencai, what's the deal with these three people? You better explain yourself clearly, or you'll be kicked out of the mortuary!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Cai's expression changed drastically.
After all, even in the past, when he did certain things, Uncle Nine never mentioned such things.
Now, the fact that Uncle Nine has said such things directly is enough to illustrate how troublesome this matter is.
Seeing this, Wencai dared not hide anything anymore and told him everything that had happened that day.
Wencai even mentioned that they had given him money.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Nine glared at him angrily, then stretched out his hand and said:
"Give me the silver dollars!"
Upon hearing this, Wencai reluctantly took out the silver dollars.
"Master, I..."
Uncle Nine gave him a cold look and said:
"Hmph! Let me tell you, Wencai, I will absolutely not agree to this!"
