"I'm relieved that you're alright. You should get some rest." Uncle Nine nodded and said, without exposing Wang Han's lie. He told Wang Han to rest and then left Wang Han's room.
'There was a noise coming from the room where the coffin was kept. It seems that Old Master Ren's body has completely turned into a zombie.' After Uncle Jiu left, Wang Han thought to himself as he lay down on the bed and pondered.
Uncle Nine looked a little strange. Was it because of me? Had he discovered something? If so, what had he discovered?
"It's the blanket." Lying on the bed, Wang Han felt the blanket's coldness and realized what had happened. "Although I deliberately messed up the blanket before leaving, I didn't expect to linger at the land for so long, so the blanket was already cold. Uncle Jiu discovered it through the blanket, so why didn't he point it out? Yes, although I live in the mortuary, I'm only staying here temporarily. Everyone has their secrets, and Uncle Jiu wouldn't pry and damage our friendship. Uncle Jiu, for this reason alone, I'll help you deal with this little zombie. It's a way of laying my cards on the table, and it shows my sincerity."
After thinking it over, Wang Han stopped pondering and closed his eyes to sleep. As for Old Master Ren turning into a zombie, even if Wang Han didn't use any cheat codes, even if he was asleep, his star-level strength was still undeniable. Daring to enter Wang Han's room was undoubtedly asking for trouble.
——————————————
"Wang Han, come with me to Master Ren's house today." Early the next morning, Uncle Jiu came to Wang Han's room and said to him, "Last night I realized that Master Ren's body has probably become a complete zombie. I think it's not appropriate to rebury it. If something happens in the future and it comes out to harm people, it will be troublesome. So I plan to ask Master Ren's consent to cremate it as before."
Uncle Nine didn't mention what happened yesterday, as if he hadn't noticed that Wang Han had left.
“Okay.” Wang Han smiled and nodded. “If you need anything else, just let me know. Besides my medical skills, I’ve also learned some martial arts, which I think are still useful.”
Uncle Nine gave Wang Han a deep look and said with a smile, "Good, I'm relieved to hear that. If there's any need, I certainly won't hesitate to help."
"Just ask when the time comes," Wang Han nodded and said. "We're friends, there's no need for so much formality. Just make sure it's not too difficult."
Help is welcome, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Wang Han is not afraid of ordinary things, and he is even not afraid of going against the will of Heaven. However, if something conflicts with his own ideas, then he will be going against his conscience. Therefore, Wang Han will never make a promise to anyone and will always leave some room for refusal.
“Yes, we are friends.” Uncle Nine nodded with a smile, knowing that Wang Han considered him a friend.
"Can you handle zombies?" Uncle Nine asked Wang Han. Although he trusted Wang Han, he still wanted to test Wang Han's abilities. Firstly, to better understand Wang Han, and secondly, to avoid asking Wang Han to do things that were beyond his capabilities or too dangerous.
"A zombie?" Wang Han thought for a moment and said, "If it's Old Master Ren, we can still deal with it."
Uncle Nine looked at Wang Han in surprise. Although he had guessed yesterday that Wang Han had some skills with hand tools and might even know some Taoist magic, and today this was confirmed, he did not expect Wang Han to be so confident, saying that he could deal with the zombie that Old Master Ren had turned into, which he did not know what kind of zombie he would become.
Uncle Nine said seriously to Wang Han, "Old Master Ren is not one of those jumping corpses that my junior brother chased away, nor is he a zombie infected by being bitten by other zombies. He is a naturally formed zombie."
"I know, but I'm confident," Wang Han said with a smile. Uncle Jiu didn't quite believe in his strength, but that was alright. Proving strength was something for others to see, not something to talk about. He just hoped that Uncle Jiu wouldn't pop his eyes out when he saw just a glimpse of his abilities.
"Sigh, alright," Uncle Nine nodded, thinking that Wang Han was being a bit arrogant. Although Wang Han said that, he still wouldn't let Wang Han deal with a zombie of Old Master Ren's level alone. In fact, unless there were special circumstances and he couldn't spare the time, he wouldn't let Wang Han deal with any zombies or ghosts alone. This wasn't about Wang Han's strength, but about his own moral character.

Mr. Ren's house is a villa with a semi-European style. The reason it is semi-European style is that the decoration is neither fish nor fowl, nor is it a combination of Chinese and Western styles.
"Sigh!" Uncle Jiu sighed deeply after leaving Master Ren's house. Not only had his attempts to persuade them failed, but Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, who had betrayed their master, had also made Captain Ah Wei lose face, making it even harder for him to speak up. Social interactions are difficult indeed.
Wencai and Qiusheng looked at Uncle Jiu, who was sighing and complaining. Knowing that they had made things difficult for their master, the two of them were like two quails and dared not say a word. They didn't know how their master would deal with them when he got back.
Seeing Uncle Nine sighing and complaining, Wang Han suggested, "Uncle Nine, why don't we set fire to the body ourselves and burn it? We can just say it was an accidental fire."
"This idea... is terrible." Uncle Nine looked at Wang Han for a long time, making sure that this terrible idea came from Wang Han, the clever man, and not from his two apprentices. He shook his head and said, "Don't make fun of me. Setting fire to a corpse without permission is ruining my reputation. Even if you claim it was an accident, you can't just say you burned a corpse. The mortuary can't withstand burning. And more importantly, we've offended the security captain, Ah Wei, today. Isn't this just giving him trouble and an excuse?"
"Haha." Wang Han laughed awkwardly, used to being arrogant and domineering, he forgot to consider human relationships.
"Master, we can't burn it openly, but we can steal the body out and burn it," Wencai suggested.
