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

Chapter 121: Mamadi Master and Disciple Arrested

Seeing that they could not argue any more, Aqiang and Ahao told the whole story.

When everyone heard that the old man was lost, they immediately started to curse, "You two fake Taoist priests, you actually lost the old man, I will make you spend the rest of your life in jail."

Before they could curse even more harshly, Jiang Li stopped them and said, "Please be patient, everyone. If they are really my uncle's disciples, then they may really be my fellow disciples. As for whether they are orthodox Taoists, I don't know."

Everyone didn't know what to say when they heard this. Ren Youfu stepped forward and asked Uncle Jiu, "May I ask how Taoist Lin thinks this matter should be resolved?"

What you mean is that it was the fault of you, a disciple of Maoshan. So you decide what to do!

Uncle Jiu heard this and said, "Don't worry, everyone. After I have made all the inquiries, I will definitely find the old man back in the shortest possible time."

Then he grabbed the two of them and went to the restaurant where Mamadi was. Jiang Li explained to everyone and followed them with his weapons.

When Jiang Li caught up with Uncle Jiu, he had already started arguing with Mamadi. Seeing the two quarreling fiercely, Jiang Li immediately said, "Disciple Jiang Li greets Mamadi's uncle."

When Mam saw Jiang Li bowing, she immediately said impatiently, "Who are you? Do you know me? Just bow."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I also heard what Master said to Uncle Master just now. Now that we have met, we can be considered acquainted."

"Even if you don't know me, you can still accept this greeting. After all, there's no need for me to bother with a dead person!"

Mama immediately yelled angrily, "If you dare to curse me, I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Uncle Master, don't be angry. I am just telling the truth!"

He then showed the pistol on his waist and said with a smile, "Look, isn't this evidence?"

Mama's momentum weakened when she saw the pistol, but she still defended herself, "You...you think you're great just because you have a gun. If it weren't for your master, I would have taught you a lesson long ago."

Seeing that his momentum was a little weak, Jiang Li bowed and said, "Uncle Master is right. I just wanted you to listen to my analysis of the current situation before I came up with this plan. If my analysis is wrong, you can teach me a lesson as you wish!"

Hearing this, Mama sat down angrily and said, "I'll see what you can say today!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Master also knows that the Ren family is a big family. You lost the old man of the Ren family, how can the Ren family let it go? If you can't find the body, I'm afraid that the Ren family alone will be widowed."

"And according to what Ah Hao said just now, someone set a trap to attack him, and that's why they kidnapped Old Master Ren."

"So, their target is Old Master Ren. Either they want to use him to do bad things, or they want to harm the Ren family. In any case, no matter which one it is, the three of us, the master and the apprentice, will bear the consequences."

"You know what zombies are. They turn into zombies when they suck blood. If that villain kills eight or ten people to feed the zombies, then you will be guilty of a great sin. You will probably be boiled in oil after you die."

Mama's eyes twitched when she heard that, but she still pretended to be calm and didn't say anything.

Jiang Li ignored him and continued, "This is a better situation. At least it won't happen immediately and there is a chance to make up for it."

"But if that zombie kills two or three people tonight, the police station will probably have to check for suspicious persons tomorrow. With the way you three act, you will probably be easily found."

"When the truth is revealed after a severe beating, I'm afraid I'll have to borrow the heads of the three of you to calm people down and appease the victim's family."

Mama couldn't hold it in any longer after hearing this, and immediately stood up and said, "What should I do? If people really find out, I won't be able to clear myself even if I jump into the Yellow River."

Thinking of this, he immediately punched and kicked Ah Hao, cursing, "You can't even handle such a small matter, I'll beat you to death, you useless thing."

Uncle Jiu scolded him, "That's enough. You didn't think it through and asked a new disciple to send the zombies away. Now that something has happened, you want to shirk responsibility. How can this be justified?"

Hearing this, Mama retorted, "What does my teaching of my apprentice have to do with you? Mind your own business!"

Uncle Jiu was about to get angry when he heard this, but Jiang Li quickly stopped him and said, "Master, don't be angry. The most important thing now is to find Old Master Ren. Otherwise, if he commits a murder, it will be bad for the reputation of our Maoshan."

Uncle Jiu didn't calm down after hearing what Jiang Li said. He snorted coldly, "If the reputation of Maoshan for thousands of years is ruined in your hands, then you will be the sinner of Maoshan. How will you explain to the founder after you die?"

Mom was also very angry and said, "I can handle my own affairs myself, there is no need for you to meddle in my affairs."

After saying that, he took Aqiang and Ahao and left.

Hearing this, Uncle Jiu was so angry that he blew his beard and cursed, "You half-baked person, with your mediocre skills, you'd better let the zombies bite you to death!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Master, don't be angry. The most important thing now is to find the zombie and kill it. As for the rest, we can talk about it later!"

Uncle Jiu frowned and asked, "How do we find it? If it was hidden by the corpse thief, I'm afraid it won't be easy to find."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Master, don't worry. It's a good thing that the zombie can't kill people if it hides. If it kills people, it will definitely not be able to hide."

"We just need to follow our uncle, lest he really gets bitten to death by zombies. Then we, Maoshan, will lose face."

Jiang Li would never say that he wanted to use the halo of the three protagonists, Mamadi, to find the old man, because no one would believe him even if he said it.

Uncle Jiu sighed when he heard this and said, "Alas, it is really unfortunate for our sect that this guy is not good enough to do such a thing."

"But you're right. The most important thing now is to find Old Master Ren first, so as not to cause a bigger mess."

Uncle Jiu had no choice but to pick up his weapons and follow Jiang Li.

But now it was already night, and the three masters and apprentices could not find any clues. After wandering around for more than an hour, they returned to the inn.

This made Uncle Jiu so angry that he started scolding again.

Jiang Li knew that this matter could not be rushed, so he immediately said to Uncle Jiu, "Master, don't worry. It's really hard to find it in the dark. If it doesn't work, we can wait until tomorrow morning and then think of a way. Now let's take a rest and recharge our energy!"

Uncle Jiu had no choice but to accept what he said, so the two of them rented two rooms next door and lived there.

The next morning, the two were awakened by the noise next door. When they went out to inquire, they found out that the servants of the Ren family had reported to the police overnight that the old man's body had been stolen.

This morning, three dead bodies with their blood drained out were found. In order to distance himself from the matter, the captain of the security station made up an excuse that zombies killed people, and he turned out to be right.

He brought people to find Mamadi and her two apprentices early in the morning, saying that they wanted to take them back for interrogation, but in fact, they just wanted to take them back to cover up the crime.

Uncle Jiu was helpless when he saw this, and immediately looked at Jiang Li and asked, "What should we do now?"
