Seeing the increasingly subtle look in the captain's eyes, before Uncle Jiu could say anything, A-Fang and A-Hao stepped in front of Cheng Shuang to shield her. Their tense expressions instantly turned into fawning as they were about to press their chests against the captain's. They chuckled and started their charade, "Captain, why are you carrying so much stuff?"
"Captain, the mountain path is difficult to traverse! There's too much stuff, it's easy to trip over things. Why didn't you bring some soldiers up the mountain?"
The captain of the guards was indeed distracted, and he said with a smile, "Aren't you guys carrying the luggage?"
A-Fang and A-Hao's lips twitched, and they continued to chat with the captain of the guard team. At the same time, they waved their hands behind their backs, signaling her to hide behind Uncle Jiu.
Cheng Shuang felt a surge of warmth in her heart. Regardless of whether they were acquaintances or not, the righteous spirit in Lin Zhengying's zombie movies would never change.
The little girl could sense that the guard captain meant no harm, but they weren't from the same movie series, and the characters had different backgrounds, so how could she feel familiar with them?
She does have that much awareness.
The rational and calm girl, tempered by the land of death, completely overlooked one word—accident.
After the three of them argued for a long time, the captain's cousin finally threw a tantrum, and the captain gave in first, quickly turning around to coax her.
To avoid delaying the journey, Uncle Nine had Ah Hao and Ah Fang carry their bundles and set off as soon as possible.
Having received their master's order, the two apprentices dejectedly carried these things that shouldn't have been there on their shoulders. Cheng Shuang even spotted a women's bicycle.
The young girl gasped, "My sister-in-law is much cuter and more virtuous than my cousin!"
Along the mountain road, apart from Uncle Jiu, who was looking at the feng shui, the guard captain was the busiest. He had to take care of his cousin and also had to glance at Cheng Shuang from time to time. Later, not only Uncle Jiu and his apprentice felt that something was wrong, but even his cousin angrily pinched him several times.
The captain of the guards rubbed the flesh on his waist and grinned at his cousin. The woman, dressed in pretty pink, didn't care about any of that. She snorted heavily and said rudely, "If you like looking at her so much, go call her cousin!"
"She's not my cousin, she's my younger sister..." The captain of the guards suddenly covered his mouth halfway through his sentence, his expression more surprised and puzzled than anyone else present, as if these words had not come from his own mouth.
"Little Sister?" The cousin's anger flared up. "You're kidding me! Do you think I wouldn't know if you have a Little Sister or not!" After cursing, she angrily pushed the captain's shoulder away and stormed off into the woods.
Seeing this, Uncle Nine told his apprentices who were carrying things to take a break. A-Fang felt that since he had brought Cheng Shuang here, he had a greater responsibility, so he walked up to her and asked in a low voice, "Is the captain really not your brother?"
Cheng Shuang hesitated for a moment, and before she could speak, Uncle Jiu said, "Can't you even see that? I've wasted my time teaching you. Judging from their appearances, they have no family ties."
Ah Hao immediately rolled up his sleeves, a look of sudden realization on his face. "Oh, I knew it! That kid's been up to something, acting all weird! Long Shuang, you have to be careful of him, he's no good!"
The little girl shrank her head. Since this Uncle Jiu could see that she and the captain of the guard team were not related by blood, could Master Zheng Ying also see that she and Commander Long were not related by blood at all?
Uncle Nine changed the subject, "But strangely enough, there seems to be some connection between the two." He counted on his fingers, making a hasty calculation, "They both have some connection with me and Ah Hao. Strange, very strange!"
A-Fang asked with great interest, "Master, what about me!? Do I have any connection with Long Shuang?"
"This is the strangest thing, her connection with you." Both of his disciples grew up by his side, so how could this be the case? Uncle Nine couldn't explain it either.
Cheng Shuang swallowed hard, really wanting to give Uncle Jiu a thumbs up. His Taoist magic was amazing! He could calculate things from a distance of a screen! Oh, no, perhaps it was only Uncle Jiu who was amazing.
A Fang asked casually, not caring about the result at all. He smiled and said to Cheng Shuang, "It's okay, we've had a history since yesterday."
The little girl nodded in agreement, then took the opportunity to change the subject, "Yes, yes, when I entered the town, the first person I saw was Brother Fang, and the first person I spoke to was also Brother Fang. I hope Brother Fang will take good care of me in the future!"
A-Fang was a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and chuckled.
Uncle Nine naturally wouldn't join the young people in joking and chatting. He called his two apprentices to his side and explained the feng shui of the place to them in detail. Cheng Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, hid under the shade of a tree, and looked back at the direction where the guard captain had disappeared.
If Uncle Nine could calculate her connection with them even through the screen, was the captain's "Little Sister" just now really a coincidence?
Because of Uncle Nine in this world, Cheng Shuang dared not allow the demonic infant, the zombie monster, and Luo An to appear freely. Master Zheng Ying mistakenly believed that she had learned a few evil tricks, so the identities of Luo An and the zombie monster were easy to explain. As long as she didn't use them to do evil, Master Zheng Ying wouldn't interfere. But this place was different. Her identity was already unknown, and it was better to avoid causing trouble before finding Liao Yuewei.
Therefore, the little girl just stared longingly at the three masters and disciples, who were a few feet away from her, standing there somewhat bored and lonely, without rashly approaching them.
During class time, outsiders accidentally wandered in; anyone with a modicum of sense would know this.
Not long after, a sharp cry pierced the sky. Cheng Shuang thought carefully and realized that the guard captain and his cousin had found a dead bat on a tree branch. That's how Uncle Jiu found the church.
Because nothing tense or dangerous happened during this period, many plot points were only briefly mentioned, and she didn't pay much attention to them. The dead bat wasn't anything interesting, so the little girl slowly lagged behind, thinking about Liao Yuewei.
Yesterday, Uncle Jiu mentioned that Sister Yuewei is safe and healthy, so Cheng Shuang isn't in a hurry to find her. Let Sister Yuewei enjoy her single life without her as a third wheel! It'll save us adults from inconvenience if she shows up.
Just like when Uncle Du is facing Alice, he always has a serious face and dares not show the slightest admiration.
Du Lanshan: No, if I reveal any more... I'll be seen as a pervert! You're such a jerk! Shuang, you're such a jerk!
The group went down the mountain to search for the source of the bats and soon arrived at the church. Cheng Shuang immediately saw two women hanging a cross from the top of the church with ropes. One of them looked very familiar and turned out to be Liao Yuewei.
Of the three film worlds, this one was the easiest to find people for!
Before the little girl's joy had faded, she was stunned to find Liao Yuewei dressed in a sky-blue nun's habit. Her beautiful features had become indifferent, like a bright sun wearing thick clouds, obscuring all her beauty.
That calm and composed demeanor truly exudes a sense of detachment.
Cheng Shuang didn't dare to recognize her for a moment. If it weren't for the faint scar on Liao Yuewei's cheek, she would have really thought that people look alike!
However, to her surprise, when Liao Yuewei looked down at them, she merely gave a casual reminder to Sister Maria beside her. Maria was startled, and the rope slipped from her grasp. It was Maria who single-handedly pulled the huge wooden cross back, preventing it from falling and injuring anyone.
