Chapter 4 Nothing wrong!
The morning sunshine falls on my body, bringing a touch of warmth.

Under the sunlight, Zhang Chu measured the earth step by step.

After walking in the middle of the night, Zhang Chu was convinced that there were indeed no monsters or ghosts in this world.

Generally speaking, the demons' strength will increase significantly only at night, making it the best time for them to be active.

Zhang Chu was out in the wilderness for most of the night, but didn't sense any demonic presence.

There were many merchants and travelers passing by on the official road. Even if he didn't eavesdrop deliberately, the sound of their chatting would reach his ears.

"The Blood Knife Patriarch was defeated by the great hero Mei Niansheng. We can finally do business with peace of mind!"

"That's right. Otherwise, we'll always be worried and scared. If we encounter the Blood Blade Sect, we'll lose everything!"

"It would be good to lose all my money, but I'm afraid I might even lose my life!"

Hearing the familiar yet unfamiliar name, Zhang Chu already understood.

As long as you are careful, no one in this world can hurt you.

As for the disputes in the martial arts world, they have nothing to do with me!

He came here to refine zombies and improve his strength.

It cannot be said that there is no relationship. For example, the disciples of the Blood Knife Sect are all top-quality materials!
Everyone is covered in blood and surrounded by evil spirits. If they were all turned into zombies,
Wow, it feels wonderful just thinking about it.

Walking on solid ground really feels great, and the sun shining on my body really feels warm.

But that doesn’t mean Zhang Chu isn’t tired!
Even though he is half human and half corpse, doesn't he still have the word "human" in it?
"It's time to get a means of transportation!"

Zhang Chu thought to himself: Where is the nearby mule and horse market?
He was suddenly confused. He was somewhat familiar with the new world, but when it came to the specific places, he was completely in the dark.

However, it doesn’t matter if you are not familiar with this place. Don’t you have a mouth yet?
"Layman,"

Walking up to a slightly older man, Zhang Chu asked, "Is there a mule and horse market nearby?"

He is wearing a Taoist robe, is there anything wrong with calling him a lay Buddhist? Nothing wrong!

"Layman,"

Hearing the question from the Taoist priest wearing a bamboo hat, the man did not dare to neglect it, "Walk two or three miles, there is a mule and horse market!"

Zhang Chu's image is really too confusing. He has white hair and fair skin, just like a teenager, and is wearing a Taoist robe. You can tell without thinking that he is a Taoist master.

In fact, I have to thank my cheap master Shi Jian for this.

The original size was modeled after Shi Jian, so naturally he had long hair.

Now it has reduced a lot of trouble for Zhang Chu.

"Thank you, layman!"

Zhang Chu bowed and thanked him.

Afterwards, the two of them started chatting, and Zhang Chu gained a deeper understanding of this world.

Time flew by while we were chatting, and we had already arrived at the nearby market.

"Master,"

Lao Liu, the man chatting with Zhang Chu, pointed ahead and said, "Just keep going and you'll see the Mule and Horse Market!"

After Zhang Chu thanked him, the two parted ways.

The horse really doesn't match the temperament of Zhang Chu's Taoist robe.

Haven't you heard of Zhang Guolao riding a donkey upside down? He was a Taoist master!

So he bought a little donkey that looked pretty strong.

In fact, I just don’t want to spend money.

The donkey, which was originally kicking its feet, became very docile when it saw Zhang Chu, just like a mouse seeing a cat.

Can you not be docile?
Animals' perception of danger is far greater than that of ordinary people. Zhang Chu released a little of his magic power and the donkey became obedient.

With his legs freed, Zhang Chu lazily rode on the donkey, basking in the sun and walking aimlessly.

If he wants to find a place where yin gathers, then he has to walk around aimlessly, right?

He searches day and night, seemingly tirelessly.

In the blink of an eye, three or five days had passed. His hard work paid off and he really found a place where Yin gathered.

There are just some troubles. The Juyin land has an owner and a manor is built on it.

The only good news is that the manor looks like it has been abandoned for a long time.

After asking around, I found out that the manor was not abandoned, but no one dared to take it.

In three to five years, the manor has changed several owners.

As long as someone moves in, they will die soon.

After finding out clearly, Zhang Chu had a plan in mind.

He rode his donkey towards the nearby government office.

A city wall tens of meters high stood there, covered with extremely mottled scars. Just from this point, one could tell that many wars had been fought here.

Looking at the two big characters written on the city gate: Jingzhou, Zhang Chu took out a few copper coins from his pocket and gave them to the gate guard, then led the donkey into the city.

The city was full of pedestrians, and there were many shops on both sides of the street, as well as children begging with broken bowls.

He walked up to a little beggar and waved the copper coin in his hand in front of him, "Take it to the pawnshop!"

"Okay!"

The little beggar was slightly startled, then he nodded repeatedly, not even bothering to pick up the broken bowl, "Master, I'll take you there right away!"

Taking someone to a pawn shop, you can earn a few coins. Who wouldn't want to do such a business?
Didn’t you see that those people who were begging were all focusing their eyes on Zhang Chu?
If he had agreed a little later, someone else would have snatched his business away immediately.

"Master,"

A middle-aged beggar stood up, smiling, "What does a little kid like him know? Let me take you there!"

The little beggar glanced at the middle-aged beggar, but didn't dare to say anything in rebuttal. He just looked at Zhang Chu with expectation.

"I can use whoever I want!"

Zhang Chu chuckled and said to the little beggar, "Let's go!"

The little beggar didn't say much, and took Zhang Chu to walk through the streets.

Gousheng, the little beggar, introduced the general situation of the city to Zhang Chu as they walked.

"Master,"

A broker saw Zhang Chu coming in and quickly came over to greet him, "What do you need?"

Zhang Chu told the broker his purpose: the Taoist priest wanted to buy the abandoned manor outside the city.

"Master,"

The dentist gritted his teeth and told the truth, "It's not clear where it is."

"fine!"

Zhang Chu looked at the broker with a little surprise. He didn't expect that he was telling the truth.

It's not that the broker wants to tell the truth, but Zhang Chu's image is too deceptive. At first glance, he is a Taoist master. If he is ever asked to settle the score, he, a broker, won't be able to bear it.

Even if there is Ya Xing in the middle, you will still be skinned alive if you don't die.

"I know the situation there,"

Zhang Chu interrupted the broker and said, "But, I plan to turn that place into a charity cemetery!"

Charity cemeteries have existed since ancient times and their original purpose was to temporarily store corpses.

Whether it is a traveler who died in a foreign land, a wanderer who was killed by revenge, or a commoner who committed suicide by jumping into the river due to a feeling of grievance, all of them can be placed in the charity cemetery.

If no one claims the body after a long time, Zhang Chu can simply dispose of it without anyone noticing and still be known as a good man.

The most important thing is that he has no shortage of corpses. Even if he refines corpses in the manor, he can do it without anyone noticing.

With no shortage of corpses and a place where yin gathers, it can be predicted that Zhang Chu's strength will usher in a period of rapid improvement.

What's more, is there anything wrong with a Taoist priest building a charity cemetery? Nothing wrong!

"Taoist Master Gaoyi!"

Hearing that Zhang Chu was planning to convert the manor into a charity manor, the agent looked at Zhang Chu with great respect and said, "I will take the Taoist priest to the government to register right away!"

Even if the guarantor is black-hearted and even immoral, it does not prevent him from admiring people who do good deeds.

With gold paving the way, the manor was still deserted, and Zhang Chu's image as a Taoist master, things went quite smoothly.

"Mr. Wang,"

After the house deed was completed, Zhang Chu said to the broker Wang Qi, "Can you introduce some people who can build houses for me?"

"You are too polite, Taoist priest,"

Wang Qi had never expected that there would be an unexpected gain. "I'll find it for you right away!"

The craftsmen who were building the house arrived soon, and under the attack of the golden bullets, nearly two hundred people started working together.

In just half a month, the manor had been converted into a charity manor, covering an area of ​​more than ten acres, including the Yin-gathering land.

The entire charity cemetery is divided into three parts. The middle part, starting from the entrance, is filled with clay sculptures of various Taoist gods, and at the innermost part are the clay sculptures of the Three Pure Ones.

As for why there are Taoist statues in the charity cemetery?

Taoist Zhang Chu worships the Three Pure Ones. Is there anything wrong with that? No problem!

The parts on both sides are the morgue. One side is used for temporary storage of bodies, and the other side is used to store bodies of those who died suddenly, died in a foreign country, etc.

The last part, which is behind the Sanqing Temple, is where the Yin gathers and where Zhang Chu refines corpses.

According to the positioning of the corpse-raising formation in memory, a lot of locust trees were planted at each node to increase the yin energy.

In ancient times, setting up charity cemeteries, especially under the influence of the concept of returning to one's roots, was considered a great act of kindness by everyone.

Moreover, the charity cemetery can also be used as a temporary morgue and has connections with the government.

Therefore, when the charity cemetery was completely completed, merchants, gentry and government officials in Jingzhou City came to congratulate.

This was also the first time that Zhang Chu met Ling Tui Si, the prefect of Jingzhou, who was willing to kill a woman for Lian Cheng Jue!
