Uncle Nine, where are you running to?

Chapter 171 Where is the Zombie Forest?

When Jingzhi returned to Renjia Town, he remembered that if Lin Jiu was a suspect, then the three of them were suspected accomplices.

Everyone looked at them with strange eyes along the way. The three of them hid themselves and fled into the rouge shop like thieves.

"Aunt, can you please go next door and buy me an iron pot and a spatula?"

Aunt Qiu Sheng was greeting Jingzhi warmly. When she heard Qiu Sheng talking, she waved her hand nonchalantly.

"Why don't you go there yourself? Aren't you very familiar with the blacksmith shop?"

She took out some new rouge from under the cabinet and showed it to Jingzhi.

"I heard from Qiu Sheng that you're getting married soon. Come take a look at these rouges. This bright red is perfect for your wedding. Pick one and I'll give it to you!"

Jingzhi glanced at Qiu Sheng, then at her shrewd yet kind sister, "Wow, you're so kind! You're not like Qiu Sheng, who's always so stingy."

When Qiu Sheng heard this, he immediately disagreed. He stepped forward, patted his chest, and argued, "It's not that I'm stingy. I have money too, okay? If Master hadn't kept it all for me..."

Jingzhi leaned against the glass cabinet, looking at him with a half-smile, "What else do you want to do?"

Qiu Sheng pointed at the exquisite rouge box on the counter, waved his hand, and said generously: "This is the rouge, I'll give you two boxes, buy one and throw away one!"

He asked jokingly, "How is it? Pretty generous, isn't it?"

Jingzhi snorted and said, "Now I finally understand why Jiu saved money for you. With your attitude, if I give you the money, you will probably spend it until your pockets are empty before you stop."

Aunt Qiu Sheng glanced at her troublesome, talkative nephew and said, "Of course not. When he was little, I didn't dare give him too much pocket money. He couldn't save money, so he spent whatever he was given."

Qiu Sheng scratched his head and tugged at his aunt's sleeve awkwardly, "Oh, don't talk about me. People outside are looking at us. Can you please help us?"

Aunt Qiu Sheng slapped his hand away and said helplessly:

"Ah, I've heard everything. I don't think your master is that kind of person... But I can't have no one to look after my shop."

Qiu Sheng immediately raised his hand, "Let me see!"

"...That's okay too."

Jingzhi immediately stuffed the purse into her hand and said, "Thank you for your help."

Aunt Qiu Sheng smiled and pushed open her purse. "It's just a small thing, why bother? It's just a pot, not much money, don't give me any money. You usually take good care of our Qiu Sheng. This brat, you told me about it the last time you came back."

The two were shoving and being polite when Wencai suddenly rushed out from the side and said, "Brother, aren't we going to pour this?"

Jingzhi was quick to stuff the purse into her hands. Aunt Qiu Sheng had no choice but to accept it. Then she fanned her nose and took a step back, "What the hell is this? It stinks!"

Qiu Sheng: "Oh, don't worry about it. Go buy us a pot, or we won't have anything to cook with tonight."

He turned to Wencai and said, "Go by yourself! By the way."

He walked quickly into the shop, into the room where he usually lived, and took something out.

"Here, this is for you. Wear it and you won't be afraid."

Wencai looked at the Bao Gong mask in his hand, thought for a moment, and shook his head, "Brother, I can't do it alone."

Qiu Sheng also thought about it and took one of the cans of Baibao Tang from him. "I also think you are not in good condition. I will leave one can here just in case. Don't say that I don't take care of you, brother. Just treat this as your training. Go ahead."

Wencai's face fell, "Senior Brother..."

What kind of experience is this? He was afraid that when he went out, he would be eaten by a corpse monster.

Qiu Sheng was unmoved and even walked behind the counter.

Wencai turned to Jingzhi and asked, "Master's wife..."

Jingzhi lay on the glass cabinet, looking at the rows of perfumes in small glass bottles inside the cabinet, her eyes shining.

"Just go by yourself. It's easy enough to just splash water on you. Besides, he wouldn't dare to attack you in public."

Which one should she choose, the sandalwood scent or the cold pine scent?

As for sandalwood, the smell is everywhere in the charity cemetery.

The cold pine flavor is rare, and just by hearing the name, I feel it is very suitable for Ajiu. I'll buy one to try.

Seeing that no one was willing to help him, Wencai could only walk out with a frown on his face, looking back every few steps.

"Qiu Sheng, help me get this cold rosin out so I can smell it."

Looking at the small light blue glass bottle, Qiu Sheng instantly understood, "Are you going to give it to my master?"

Jingzhi: "Why? Can't girls give men perfume?"

"No." Qiu Sheng shook his head and slightly pulled out the tray, took out the small glass bottle embedded in the soft cloth and handed it to her. "If you look like this, my master will look like you are supporting him."

Jingzhi: "It sounds so bad to say 'keeping a sugar daddy'. I just... like him and can't help but want to give him a gift."

Qiu Sheng's voice suddenly became quiet. "If this isn't considered keeping someone, then what is?"

Jingzhi was too lazy to pay attention to him.

After smelling the cold pine scent, she nodded and decided to buy it. She carefully screwed the lid back on, held it in her hand, and began to look at the rouge that her aunt had just recommended to her.

She didn't have many cosmetics. Lin Jiu bought things for the wedding, but she had to buy these personal items herself.

In her previous life, Erdi taught her how to put on makeup all her life. She may not have learned even 80% of it, but she has at least understood half of it.

Otherwise, why not take this opportunity to buy a complete set and give him a surprise?

"Hey, take that out and show it to me..."

……

Just as the two were discussing cosmetics, Wencai hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in.

"Brother!"

Qiu Sheng looked up and saw Wencai's aggrieved old face, and he knew that he definitely didn't hit the target.

"It failed."

Wencai lowered his eyebrows and whispered: "I got the wrong shoes and splashed the wrong person."

"You're so stupid! You can't even recognize clothes?" Qiu Sheng came out from behind the cabinet, carrying the only remaining pot of treasure soup. "Here, I only brought two pots out today. If you don't win this time, you can go back to the charity cemetery and get it yourself."

Wencai took the treasure soup and hesitated to speak, "Brother, how about..."

Before he could finish his words, customers who came to buy rouge pushed the door open in twos and threes.

"Hello, sir. What can I buy?"

"This lady is so beautiful, how about buying her a box of rouge? They're all newly arrived, top-quality goods!"

Looking at Qiu Sheng who was so busy that his feet hit his head, Wencai put down his hand in disappointment.

"Come on!" Jingzhi clenched his fist towards Wencai and cheered him on in a low voice.

Wencai forced a wry smile, made up his mind, took the mask off his head and put it on, then went out with gritted teeth.

……

Unexpectedly, he didn't come back for most of the day after he went out, and Jingzhi thought he was lost.

She and Qiu Sheng stood at the door and looked around for a while. They were really worried, so they decided to go out and look for her.

After walking a few steps, I saw Wencai coming back happily.

The two of them hurriedly greeted him.

"Splashed?"

Wencai shook his head.

Qiu Sheng gritted his teeth and slapped him on the back of the head, "Then why are you so happy!"

Wencai rubbed the back of his head indifferently, "Shi Shaojian is very cunning. He always avoids me and walks into the deserted alleys. I dare not follow him."

Qiu Sheng: "Oh, you are so timid."

He held out his hand, "Give it to me, I'll pour it!"

Wencai handed him the jar and said, "I just heard someone say that he can reveal his true form without the broth!"

Qiu Sheng looked suspicious, "Who said you believe everything? Are you stupid?"

Wencai looked around and saw that there were still people pointing at them on the street, so he quickly pushed the two of them into the store.

Then whispered:

"That's what Master Uncle said."

Jingzhi frowned slightly, "Are you sure you saw and heard clearly?"

Wencai nodded vigorously, "I'm so sure! It's him."

Qiu Sheng stroked his chin, shook his head, and tutted, "Master Uncle is going to sacrifice his relatives for the greater good this time, but why doesn't he do it himself?"

Wencai scratched his head and said, "Maybe he felt that he was his own son and he couldn't bring himself to do it."

"...That's right. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs."

Qiu Sheng: "Forget it, tell me quickly, what's the solution?"

Wen Cai saw that he had finally found a place to use his skills, so he spoke with great joy, "Master said that he is no longer human. All I need to do is go to the Zombie Forest and find the coffin fungus in the Zombie King's mouth, and use the cold and yin to attack the extremely yin person... Oh, yes, he said to fight poison with poison. Not only will Shi Shaojian reveal his true form, but he might even be able to greatly reduce his strength!"

Qiu Sheng: "...Is it true?"

Wencai pointed at the Baibaotang in his hand and said, "Then you go. If he bites you, my master's wife and I will go and save you."

Qiu Sheng choked, then cursed with a smile:

"Good boy, you dare to trick me? Tell me, are you afraid to go, so you made up an excuse?"

Wencai shook his head, but seeing that Qiu Sheng and Jingzhi both looked incredulous, he had no way to defend himself.

Suddenly, a person walked by on the street and his eyes lit up.

He pulled the sleeves of the two men and walked to the waist door, looking out.

"Look! Uncle Master is right there. I didn't lie to you. How dare I make fun of him?"

Jingzhi looked outside and saw that the person walking away with the square steps was Shi Jian. Who else could it be but Shi Jian?

His spine is no longer strong and he looks dispirited.

Jingzhi sighed. Anyone who had such an unlucky child would be ashamed to hold their head up...

Qiu Sheng patted his shoulder and said, "Okay! I'll trust you this time! Where is the Zombie Forest?"

"Outskirts of the north city."

Jingzhi frowned, "Are we going now? Aren't you going to discuss it with Jiu first?"

Qiu Sheng pointed at the sun in the sky and said, "Now's the perfect time to go. Zombies are afraid of the sun. If we go back and forth to the charity cemetery, the sun will have already set."

Jingzhi still felt something was amiss. She opened her mouth and wanted to try to persuade him again, but Qiu Sheng raised his hand to stop her.

"Hey, you don't believe me, do you? I've been studying hard lately. I know how to deal with zombies better than you do. Just think of this as my first shot in the arm."

Jingzhi: "Then I will..."

Qiu Sheng: "Don't go this time, we'll go by ourselves!"

Looking at his heroic look, Jingzhi didn't know what to say.

"Then I'll go back first. Please take good care of your junior brother."

After thinking for a moment, she added to Qiu Sheng who was pushing the door open, "If you don't come back before sunset, I'll go find you!"

Qiu Sheng straightened his chest and raised his head, a wanton smile on his lips, "Don't worry! I will definitely be back before dark. I have to save my life to attend your and Master's wedding!"

Jingzhi: "...Tsk, you're so smooth-talking."
