Then he saw his uncle clapped his hands, and all the paper figures stopped, then turned around and floated into the woods, including the one he had just knocked down.
"Continue tomorrow!" As his uncle said this, Jiang Mubai felt a darkness coming from his head.
He slept until noon the next day and woke up in a hurry, only to find out that his master had passed away. He left a letter saying that he was going to cultivate his mind and entrusted Baiyun Temple and his three disciples to his uncle. The broken cushion he usually used had now become the sleeping mat of the cat demon.
This made the uncle curse loudly, without caring about his appearance at all.
But he did one thing right away, which was to go to the town and recruit a lot of disciples. In the words of his uncle, someone has to do the work and someone has to make the money.
Jiang Mubai discovered that his senior brother was particularly interested in making money. With the help of his uncle, Baiyun Temple had a lot of things that were not there before, such as charging money for fortune-telling, asking for divination sticks, interpreting divination sticks, praying for blessings, and lighting candles. Even the uncle divided the incense into large, medium and small grades to sell, and also sold some amulets and talismans to ward off evil spirits.
My uncle assigned all these matters to my senior brother, who went there happily.
This was also the first time that Jiang Mubai knew how a Taoist temple should make money.
My uncle even paid someone to post papers with the address in the surrounding villages and cities. In his words, this is called advertising.
None of them believed that this thing would be useful, but it happened to be effective. Many people flocked to Baiyun Temple, and those disciples who had received emergency training instantly immersed themselves in their respective roles. Jiang Mubai saw that Senior Brother O's eyes were almost blind, especially when counting money at night, Senior Brother O was almost turning into a money-grubber.
In the past, there was a commission every now and then, but now the requests for exorcism are all scheduled for a month later. Although the uncle said he was worried about them, he still took them to do it one by one. Jiang Mubai felt that the uncle probably felt that they could not negotiate the price, especially the eldest brother, who was too much like the uncle and did not care much about money.
The uncle's pricing was also very vague, and it seemed that he charged according to his mood. For some things, he would quote a very high price and be very polite, while for others, he would just charge a small amount of money out of tokenism.
However, this time, the uncle said he had to wait for someone and did not come. The eldest brother brought Jiang Mubai to Kaoshantun. They heard that there was a bear lady here. It was said that the monster would put on a head and disguise itself as a human to enter the village and knock on the door late at night. It specifically picked families with children. The uncle asked him to wait in the house. After two days of waiting, there was finally a knock on the door in the middle of the night.
The voice of the thing outside the door was hoarse and unpleasant, but it carried an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Open the door, I'm your grandma."
Jiang Mubai opened the door, and what came into view was a furry animal face. A fishy smell came out of the toothy mouth.
Jiang Mubai didn’t understand why all the monsters would roar when they saw people. Was it to give themselves courage?
He was already very experienced. He made some hand gestures and thrust a stick into the monster's gaping mouth. Seeing it retreat, the eldest senior brother who had been lying in ambush came out. He didn't know what the uncle had taught the eldest senior brother, but now the eldest senior brother was very powerful and could even summon thunder from the sky.
Ever since the uncle-master came, the cultivation of the three of them has skyrocketed.
Looking at the bear demon that was chopped to pieces and was smoking, Jiang Mubai knew that he could call it a day, but they had to take the bear corpse with them.
When rushing to Baiyun Temple, Jiang Mubai still passed by the village at the foot of the mountain, but it was different from before. The villagers now looked at them with much more respect, and some even took the initiative to greet him.
This is a treatment they have never had before. Ever since my uncle dealt with several villagers who wanted to take advantage of them, they have become much more obedient.
Jiang Mubai suddenly felt that maybe his uncle was right. Being an evil cultivator was not a big deal. At least he could have enough food and clothes and would not be bullied. He just didn't know how his uncle was doing outside.
Finally they arrived at Baiyun Temple. Looking at the smooth mountain road and the pilgrims holding incense, Jiang Mubai was a little dazed. It was not until his eldest senior brother patted him on the shoulder that he remembered to report to his uncle.
But before he even entered the door, he heard his uncle cursing, and then a figure flew out and fell directly in front of him.
