Chapter 371 - 371 Thunder Fist
371 Thunder Fist
That solid wood coffin, along with Old Master Ren’s corpse, should weigh at least 400 to 500 Jin. Normally, it would require four strong men to lift it up, but you lifted it up by yourself, and it looked like it was very easy.
Wen Cai was very surprised. Who knew that this young man in front of him had such amazing strength?
Wen Cai gathered his courage and took a few steps forward to ask you, “W-Where are you taking Old Master Ren’s body?” 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
You didn’t answer.
Wen Cai hurriedly asked, “If you leave like this, how will my master explain it to Old Master Ren’s family?”
“Find a way to explain yourself!”
Just as you were about to leave, you saw a few magical artifacts like peach wood swords on the table in the living room. You took some and left, leaving behind a bitter-faced Wen Cai.
In Mr. Zombie, Old Master Ren was not the only zombie at the beginning.
Ninth Uncle’s Junior Brother, who was also your master, the Corpse Controller, Four-Eyed Daoist, has many zombies under his command.
However, that Junior Brother of his had gone out to travel and would only appear in Renjia Town after a long time. In other words, there was only one zombie in the vicinity of Renjia Town, and that was Old Master Ren.
After capturing the zombie, a large part of the plot could not be developed.
If you wanted to deal with the protagonist of the world, you naturally had to lower the extent of his appearance.
Not long after you left, Ninth Uncle finally returned from town. He saw Wen Cai sitting on the threshold with a pained expression.
Ninth Uncle was stunned and asked, “What’s wrong? Wen Cai, what are you doing here? What happened to your hand?”
“Master!”
When Wen Cai saw Ninth Uncle return, he immediately cried out with an aggrieved expression.
“A bandit came to our Memorial Hall this afternoon and dislocated my arm. He even took away Old Master Ren’s corpse! Master, I’m so miserable.”
Upon hearing this, Ninth Uncle was shocked. He first approached Wen Cai and looked at his arm. After confirming that it was only dislocated joints, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“It’s only dislocated, bear with it!”
As Ninth Uncle spoke, he grabbed Wen Cai’s arm and lifted it up quickly. With a crack Wen Cai’s arm bones were put back to their original positions.
“Don’t do any heavy work with this hand for a month! Let’s go!” Ninth Uncle said and quickly ran into the mortuary. When he saw that Old Master Ren’s coffin was gone, his face changed.
Without Old Master Ren’s body, how was he going to explain this to Old Master Ren’s family? After that, Ninth Uncle realized that a few of the Dharmic artifacts he had placed in the living room and lobby were missing.
“What’s going on? Where are my magic tools?” shouted Ninth Uncle.
Wen Cai replied, “They were all snatched away by that guy!”
Ninth Uncle’s expression was ugly as he spoke to Wen Cai. “Tell me what happened!”
“Yes, Master. It’s like this. This afternoon, I was feeding the rooster when someone suddenly knocked on the door. I opened the door and saw a young man in a Daoist robe. He said that he was your fellow disciple and asked me if you were in. When I said that you were in town, he immediately revealed his true identity.”
Wen Cai explained the situation with exaggerated details.
When he heard that there was a young Daoist in a Daoist robe, Ninth Uncle’s expression turned uglier. When he heard that Old Master Ren’s body was about to turn into a zombie, Ninth Uncle’s expression changed drastically.
After Wen Cai finished speaking, Ninth Uncle immediately stood up and prepared to leave.
“Master, where are you going? That guy is powerful and can run very fast even while carrying the coffin. He has been walking for a long time, so I don’t think you can catch up with him,” Wen Cai kindly reminded Ninth Uncle.
“You stay here and look after the property. I’ll tell Old Master Ren’s family about this and ask them to organize a team to pursue them.”
With that, Ninth Uncle quickly walked toward Renjia Town.
At Renjia Town…
On the main street, a group of guards in uniform were quickly running out of the city.
The person in the lead was Ren Tingting’s cousin, the captain of the security team, Ah Wei.
“Move, move, move, don’t block the way!”
Ah Wei said loudly as he walked, “There was a theft case at the Memorial Hall. Anyone who can provide clues will be rewarded with 10 ingots! If you catch the thief, you’ll be rewarded with 100 ingots!”
When they heard this, the commoners who followed up were all astounded.
“Corpse theft case? Who’s so perverted? They actually stole the corpse?”
“Why did they steal the body? It’s really a big world, full of wonders!”
“100 ingots. If I can catch that thief, I’ll be rich.”
Half an hour later…
Master Ren also rushed to the Memorial Hall in a hurry. After all, the missing body belonged to his close elder.
Even if it was just for show, he still had to come and take a look.
Moreover, Master Ren was really anxious. It was not that he was filial, but that his corpse was related to the feng shui of the Ren family, so he could not be careless.
“Ninth Uncle! The body was placed here, how could it have been stolen?”
Upon hearing Master Ren’s question, Ninth Uncle looked a little embarrassed. The body was lost in the Memorial Hall, and as the owner of the hall, he had to take full responsibility.
“Master Ren, the old master’s corpse is about to turn into a zombie. I suspect that the thief stole it back to raise the corpse!”
“Ah? Then what do we do?” Master Ren said anxiously.
“Ninth Uncle, you have to find my father’s body and bring it back.”
Ninth Uncle thought about it and promised, “Don’t worry, Master Ren. I will definitely find the old master’s body!”
…
You had caused quite a commotion in Renjia Town.
However, this had nothing to do with you.
You didn’t want to stay nearby and fight with Ninth Uncle.
Carrying the coffin, you soon arrived at a deep forest.
Suddenly, a gust of Yin wind blew, and the Yin Qi was bone-piercing cold.
The coffin made a loud noise, and the lid of the coffin was almost lifted.
Your face was very calm as you slowly put down the coffin and looked at it quietly, waiting for Old Master Ren to come out.
The next moment, a bang echoed.
The entire coffin suddenly exploded and shattered into pieces. Then, a black shadow jumped out of the coffin. It was the Ren family’s old master.
Ren Baqian’s grandfather had completely transformed into a zombie. He had a green face and fangs, and his face was ferocious. His entire body was stiff and straight, and his arms were raised flat. His hands were also straight, and his sharp nails were shimmering with a cold glint under the moonlight shining through the window.
The aura of a living person on your body immediately attracted the attention of Old Master Ren.
The zombie’s instinct to suck blood immediately drove it to pounce in your direction.
“Hehe, little zombie, you’re quite bold.”
You didn’t even try to dodge the zombie that was charging at you. Instead, you slowly clenched your fists.
“Thunder Fist”
Your fist was surrounded by lightning. A thunderbolt with the force of your fist was instantly shot out.
The thunderbolt struck the old patriarch’s body accurately and sent him flying dozens of meters away.
You looked at the dying Old Master Ren lying on the ground and shook your head helplessly.
“It’s still a little lacking. If Master came over, I reckon all the bones would have been chopped off.”
The master you’re talking about was, of course, your cheap father, the true Edest Senior Brother of the Mao Mountain, Shi Jian.
