The Yi庄.
The Ma Ma Di master and apprentice and the Jiu Shu master and apprentice sat around the courtyard, eating lunch.
The food was plentiful, a rare treat to have meat.
However.
Whether it was Wen Cai, Qiu Sheng, or A Hao, A Qiang, none of them had much appetite.
Ma Ma Di's eating was a sight to behold; he was making noises with his mouth, and his other hand was not idle, sometimes digging his nose, sometimes scratching his ears, sometimes scratching his butt, and finally, he even took off his shoes and socks and started rubbing his toes.
His big feet emitted a pungent smell of fermented beans, as if dead fish had been covered for three days. It was not just a lack of appetite, but the sight was nauseating.
Jiu Shu kept a straight face the whole time.
Until Ma Ma Di used his foot-rubbing hand to tear at the roast duck on the table, he couldn't help but slam his chopsticks on the table and angrily reprimanded, "Ma Ma Di, I've put up with you for a long time. Can you eat like a normal person?"
Ma Ma Di was startled, but after he realized it, he showed no embarrassment, instead, he retorted loudly, "I was born to be scolded by you? Are you my father or my mother?"
"This is my temperament, it's none of your business. If you can stand it, you look, if you can't stand it, you leave!"
"Anyway, you've always looked down on me!"
Jiu Shu was speechless for a moment, and he said in a heavy tone, "It's your own fault, you've always been lazy, and yet you have high ambitions. You're always half-baked in everything you do. Even simple tasks like sending corpses, sending guests, and returning home, you can screw them up..."
"You don't care, I think you are a disgrace to the Mao Shan!"
When he mentioned the Ren Tian Tang, Ma Ma Di started panting heavily, his face flushed red with embarrassment!
"Lin Jiu, you're enough!"
"Let the past be the past, don't bring it up again!"
"Is it necessary to keep mentioning it? Haven't you ever made a mistake?!"
Jiu Shu looked at him, his face grim: "Everyone makes mistakes, but...have you repented?"
Slap!
Ma Ma Di slapped his chopsticks on the table, stood up angrily, and said, "Lin Jiu, are you crazy? I'm the senior brother, it's not your turn to teach me how to act!"
The two of them were at each other's throats, the air was filled with gunpowder.
Wen Cai, Qiu Sheng, A Hao, and A Qiang did not dare to breathe, fearing that they would be caught in the crossfire.
Just then, a faint, indifferent voice came from the doorway.
"Old man, you've messed things up, and you're quite proud of yourself?"
Looking towards the voice, they saw a young man and a young woman standing at the door of the Yi庄.
The girl was beautiful, with a simple and innocent demeanor, and she exuded an air of playful naivete.
The man was as beautiful as a fairy, with a detached aura, and he held a snow-white fox in his arms.
"Dao Bo!"
"Dao Xiong!"
Jiu Shu and his disciples hurriedly greeted them.
The voices of the master and disciples were filled with a sense of tension.
Especially Jiu Shu.
In his interactions with Mu Chen, he had already figured out Mu Chen's personality.
He seemed gentle and humble, making people feel like they were basking in the spring breeze, but in fact, he was gentle on the outside but tough on the inside, decisive in his actions.
He was also capricious in his dealings, fearless.
If things went wrong, Ma Ma Di might die today.
At this moment, Ma Ma Di spoke up.
"Who are you? You're young and don't know how to respect your elders, you keep calling someone an old man?"
He frowned, feeling very displeased.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Jiu Shu's face turned heavy, and he was about to say something, but Mu Chen raised his hand and interrupted him.
Facing Ma Ma Di's displeased gaze, Mu Chen smiled, "Respecting your elders is a prerequisite for loving them, and most importantly..."
At this point, the smile on Mu Chen's face disappeared completely, and his cold gaze focused on Ma Ma Di: "The subject must be a person. Do you think you are?"
Two days on the road, traveling thousands of miles.
As soon as he entered, he saw Ma Ma Di looking like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
Mu Chen's anger flared up.
Ren Tian Tang became a zombie, Ma Ma Di was responsible for it all.
If he hadn't been careless and let his disciples deliver the corpse, Ren Tian Tang wouldn't have been robbed, and there wouldn't have been the music zombie plot.
And Ren Tian Tang was the blood-related brother of Ren Wei Yong, the people he killed as a zombie would have karmic consequences for Ren Fa and Ren Ting Ting.
Although Mu Chen could fleece powerful evil spirits, it didn't stop him from standing up for his woman and father-in-law.
He came to see, and Ma Ma Di, you're still this unrepentant deadbeat?
Being told by Mu Chen, both directly and indirectly, that he was not human, Ma Ma Di was furious, and he wanted to turn into a 喷子, but under Mu Chen's gaze, he couldn't say a word!
Seeing that he didn't speak, Mu Chen continued, "A ruler that is not straight cannot be used to make a square, a compass that is not straight cannot be used to make a circle."
"Taking money to do the job is the rule of the corpse-carrying industry!"
"Now, you've taken the money but messed up the job...I want you to give the Ren family an explanation, is that too much to ask?"
Mu Chen's voice was light, but his words were heavy.
Ma Ma Di's next words would decide his life or death.
Ma Ma Di squinted his eyes: "Are you a member of the Ren family?"
Mu Chen nodded, "Sort of."
"Looking at your appearance, you're an adult, you should know that there's no such thing as a 100% guaranteed success in the world, let alone the current chaotic situation, even living people might have accidents during long-distance journeys, let alone bringing along a dead person."
He said casually, and then raised his chin towards Mu Chen: "Don't talk about explanations...when my Mao Shan brothers and sisters finish their work, they will help you find the body, if you can't find it, I'll just refund you."
Ma Ma Di looked nonchalant and unconcerned.
He didn't know that he had already stepped into the gate of hell.
Mu Chen's eyes were deep, "You mean... if the body is found, you'll take the money, and the karma of the zombie killing will be settled, but if the body is not found, you'll return the money, and the endless karma of the zombie killing outside will be borne by the Ren family?"
Ma Ma Di was startled and subconsciously replied, "Whose disciple are you? How do you know..."
He was so angry at Mu Chen's "old man" that he didn't pay attention to the way Jiu Shu and his disciples addressed Mu Chen.
"Enough!"
Before Ma Ma Di could finish his sentence, Jiu Shu interrupted in despair.
During Ma Ma Di's speech, he wanted to speak several times, but Mu Chen stopped him.
Until now, he couldn't bear it anymore.
The solution Ma Ma Di gave was fine for fooling the uninformed, but in the eyes of an insider, it was too unprincipled.
If he didn't interrupt, Ma Ma Di would really die today!
But he was still too late to interrupt.
Mu Chen nodded to himself, "I understand, maybe you know you're wrong, but even now, you still don't think it's a big deal, you are fearless, shameless, indifferent."
"What gives you the confidence?"
"The Mao Shan?"
"If something like this happened to ordinary people, the Mao Shan would indeed help you cover it up, let's not say more, Yi Mei would have helped you wipe your ass."
At this point, Mu Chen turned his gaze to Ma Ma Di, "The explanation you gave is not satisfactory, I am satisfied, but the Ren family is not satisfied."
Jiu Shu's face was anxious: "Dao Xiong..."
Mu Chen waved his hand, not to ask, but to say that there was no need to say more: "I've given you face, it's his fault, I'll get this explanation myself!"
Mu Chen's words were flat, but his tone was filled with an undeniable domineering.
"Okay, okay, Lin Jiu, get out of the way, I want to see how this kid is going to get an explanation from me!"
Ma Ma Di mumbled and rolled up his sleeves, feeling that this young man was young and confident.
"Did I tell you to move?"
Mu Chen just raised his eyes to look at him.
Ma Ma Di felt a sharp pain in his head, as if needles were piercing his brain, his vision suddenly went dark, and he lost all strength and slumped onto the bench!
The Yin Shen, a creation that has been cultivated to its peak by mental energy, can naturally be used for mental attacks.
This one glance, directly shattered Ma Ma Di's Longevity Bridge, and his cultivation, like a leaking wooden bucket, quickly dissipated!
He was crippled!
Jiu Shu was shocked to see that Mu Chen would hit so hard!
Ma Ma Di's heart was filled with fear and terror, growing wildly like weeds!
At this moment.
He suddenly remembered the way Jiu Shu and his disciples addressed Mu Chen...
