My Apprenticeship to Uncle Jiu: I Was a Warlord in the Republic of China

Chapter 169 There’s a Taoist priest in this crappy place!

Just as all the ghosts entered the formation, a group of Maoshan Taoists activated the formation and appeared one after another, each using their own magic weapons to begin capturing these ghosts.

They were all wearing Taoist robes, had solemn expressions, and were muttering to themselves.

Afterwards, he shuttled through the formation with various magical weapons in his hands. The formation suddenly began to light up and runes flew.

And those ghosts, under the shining light, had nowhere to hide and fled everywhere.

The Taoists either waved their magical instruments or cast spells to capture the ghosts one by one.

The whole scene was tense and exciting, and it was a feast for the eyes. Jiang Li was naturally among them. Although he didn't have many means of capturing ghosts, his luck was amazing.

Not only is he blessed by the luck of the mountain god, he is also protected by the luck of the dynasty. He is also full of merits and a lot of murderous aura (he has killed many people). He can be said to be a real human contradiction.

Therefore, as long as he reached out and touched those ghosts, they would have no power to resist and could only let him control them.

The magic weapon he carried with him was a gourd, which was just right for holding ghosts. After catching them, he just had to stuff them in and they wouldn't dare to move at all.

After all, they knew that there was trouble with the Taoist priest outside, but they dared not make any unusual movements.

At this moment, his efficiency was actually higher than that of many of his uncles and aunts. At this moment, he saw that Shi Jian was attacking those ghosts with the Lightning Thunder Fist.

They are originally low-level wandering ghosts with weak bodies, how can they withstand such powerful and overbearing thunder magic? Therefore, wherever Shi Jian passes, all the ghosts will be beaten to pieces.

Of course, Jiang Li was not the only one who saw this scene. Many of his fellow disciples saw it, but no one dared to step forward to stop it. After all, the eldest senior brother was already majestic, and it would be bad to step forward and offend him for no reason.

But others did not dare to intervene, but Uncle Jiu had to. After all, these ghosts were registered in the underworld. If one was missing, the sin of Aqiang and Ahao would be greater.

If Shi Jian continues to kill like this, his two disciples will probably never be able to wash away their sins in this lifetime.

So, when Shi Jian once again used his Lightning Thunder Fist to attack the two wandering souls, Uncle Jiu pinched his hands and performed a Tai Chi seal to block the two thunder spells.

But this Lightning Thunder Fist was so powerful that Uncle Jiu didn't dare to take it head-on. He just used his clever strength to direct the blow to the ground.

"Brother, please have mercy on them. Hit them with your Lightning and Thunder Fist. Their souls will be shattered and they will never be reborn!"

"Wouldn't it be better to kill them? That would save them from the suffering of wandering around!" Shi Shaojian said sarcastically, nonchalantly.

"Humph, I, Shi Jian, have always been ruthless in killing all evil spirits!"

"Why, are you going to make the decision for them?"

Seeing that Uncle Jiu was speechless after being confronted by the two men, Jiang Li immediately came to his rescue, "Master, you have misunderstood. The life and death of these ghosts is related to the fortune and blessings of my two junior brothers. My master and I would like to ask Master to show mercy and let them go."

When Shi Shaojian heard Jiang Li say this, he wanted to refute, but was stopped by Shi Jian. After all, he was an old hand and he immediately heard the hidden meaning in Jiang Li's words.

He put himself before Lin Jiu, and it was obvious that he was not telling him this matter as a Maoshan disciple, but was implicitly warning him as a county magistrate and a warlord.

If he didn't give him face, this kid might really dare to do something. After all, after today's discussion, he asked Simu Chizuru about it.

This kid actually has several thousand soldiers under his command, and he leads them from town to town. He has fought many battles and killed many people, so his nature is definitely not as humble and polite as he showed today.

"Master, I..."

"Okay, since your Junior Brother Jiang has said so, then as our senior uncles and senior brothers, we naturally have to give him some face."

Then he said to Uncle Jiu, "Junior Brother Lin, my character and methods are not really suitable for dealing with these wandering souls. I will not get involved in this matter. I will just help you protect the law and find out the gaps!"

Uncle Jiu hurriedly thanked him upon hearing this, "Thank you for your consideration for the younger generation, Senior Brother. Please go and have a rest first, and leave this to us."

After hearing this, Shi Jian laughed and left. After walking a few steps, he said without looking back, "Your third disciple is really good, but it's a pity that his heart is not in our sect. What a pity!"

Uncle Jiu was filled with mixed emotions after hearing this. Among so many disciples he had, only Jiang Li was the most outstanding one. But as Shi Jian said, his heart was not in Taoism, but in the world.

But he did not have time to think about it at this moment. He glanced at Jiang Li and continued to catch ghosts. After all, the longer these ghosts stayed in the world of the living, the blessings and fortune of his two disciples would be reduced.

Seeing Uncle Jiu continuing to catch ghosts, Jiang Li naturally did not stop and continued to catch ghosts. Every time he caught one, he put it into the gourd magic tool, and soon the gourd was full.

At this time, the operation was nearing its end. After all, Uncle Jiu had recruited dozens of fellow disciples this time.

That’s right, those who came were the 35th generation of Maoshan disciples, but the elders did not come. After all, it would be very embarrassing to make trouble and let the elders clean up the mess.

Of course, this does not mean that there are only these dozens of disciples in the 35th generation of Maoshan, but because time is tight, only these dozens of people can arrive in time.

Jiang Li watched the situation in the formation gradually calm down, so he stopped attacking. But when he turned around, he saw an evil ghost casting a spell on A Qiang and A Hao, trying to force them to destroy the innate Bagua formation.

He thought to himself that something was wrong, and rushed towards them quickly. He kicked the two men who were about to succeed away with two kicks, then he landed, grabbed the evil ghost's slender waist, and held her down tightly.

Even the rat spirit, which had a physical body and had been worshipped for many years, could not resist when caught by Jiang Li. Naturally, this mere evil ghost without a physical body could not move at all.

He dragged her aside, found a piece of yellow cloth to wrap her up, then pointed his hand like a sword and used his magic power to draw a ghost-suppressing talisman on the cloth. Only then was he able to subdue the culprit.

At this time, Shi Jian and his son also came over. They had noticed that the two men were acting a little strange before and were about to stop them, but Jiang Li beat them to it.

Then he just glanced at the two guys on the ground and fell asleep and stopped paying attention to them.

"Jiang, what did you catch? Why did you draw a talisman to suppress it?"

"Master, it was this evil ghost who cast a spell to confuse my two junior brothers, causing them to almost make a big mistake. Fortunately, she has been captured and brought to justice. I think handing her over to the ghost catcher will also reduce some of the guilt of my two junior brothers!"

When Shi Jian heard what was going on, he snorted coldly, "In my opinion, this kind of ghost thing should be hit by my Lightning Thunder Fist to prevent her from harming the world again!"

"I admire your hatred for evil, but this is the first case after all, so it's better to hand it over to the ghost messenger."
