Chapter 120: Patrol God The next morning, Taoist Qianhe, who was rushing back to bury his disciple, said goodbye to Cheng Long, Simu, and Ikkyu one by one, and left with his two little dusk. After Simu and Jiale, master and apprentice, packed their luggage, they drove out the twenty or so customers in the morgue. They have to deliver to these customers one by one within two months. Otherwise, it will be overdue. Not only will you not receive any money, you will have to pay compensation instead. This was a price Simu could not bear no matter what, so in order to speed up the corpse-driving efficiency, he even brought Jiale along. "Master Simu, you'd better lock the door. The owner is not at home, so it's not convenient for me to stay here. I'm sure Master Ikkyu will welcome me to stay at his house for a while..." Cheng Long knew that there were several boxes of gold bars hidden under Simu's bed. He certainly wouldn't be so shameless as to steal from Simu's house while he was away. I’m afraid of accidents in the future. If the gold bars disappeared and he was not there, there would be no way to explain it. In order to avoid trouble, he had to move out and live in the master's house next door for a few days.
"This... What if the monk also has to go out in a couple of days? Then you won't have a place to live?" Simu was a little hesitant. If he didn't have so many customers and the agreed time was not very flexible, he would definitely stay and accompany Aaron for a few more days. But he had already been resting for two days and two nights and could not delay any longer. "Master, I will soon become the God of Wangyue Mountain. The Mountain Goddess will prepare a place for me to live. Even if Master Ikkyu goes out to travel tomorrow, I will have a place to stay." Cheng Long made sufficient preparations before the time travel. Even if Tang Sai'er did not prepare a place for him to live, he still had plenty of options. "Okay then, I'll lock the door." Simu was very confident in Cheng Long, for he was afraid that he might forget to lock the door after leaving, allowing passers-by to accidentally break into the house. Those boxes of gold bars under the bed must not be lost. "Master, have a safe journey." "Haha, thank you for your good words." Taoist Simu locked the door, turned around and said jokingly: "Along, next time we meet, you will be the Lord God General. Don't pretend you don't know me, a little Taoist priest!" "That's impossible to say." "Haha, you little brat, you haven't even become a god general yet, but you're already showing off." "..." After some laughter and joking. The master and the apprentice embarked on a journey that lasted for several months. Cheng Long was invited into the house by Master Ikkiu. Jingjing, who had just finished taking a shower in the shower room, came to him in a simple set of pajamas with a flushed face and said, "Brother Long, my master has to chant sutras every morning and evening. If you are afraid of the noise, you can sleep on the floor in my room." "Jingjing, why do you have such an idea?" Upon hearing this, Master Ikkyu suddenly looked at Jingjing.
"Master, don't you always say that monks don't care about trivial matters? I just want Brother Long to sleep more comfortably." Jingjing lowered her head slightly, and it was obvious that she didn't think so in her heart. "Jingjing, I appreciate your kindness, but I think it would be better for me to sleep in the living room..." Cheng Long did not make things difficult for Master Ikkiu. Sleeping in the room would certainly deepen his relationship with Jingjing. But Master Ikkyu was outside and couldn't do many things. Think about it and forget it. After all, he never thought of hooking up with Jingjing from the beginning. Master Ikkyu said awkwardly: "But the sound of me hitting the wooden fish is indeed a bit noisy." "Then I'd better go into the room and sleep on the floor." Ignoring Master Ikkiu's constipated expression, Cheng Long grinned and followed Jingjing happily into the room. After entering the room. Jingjing bent down to help Cheng Long spread the mat while saying, "Brother Long, I heard from Master that the Queen of Wangyue Mountain is a woman who is not easy to get along with. If you accept her title, you can become a patrol god and gain some benefits, but if you cannot cultivate to the Return to Void Realm during your lifetime, you will be trapped in Wangyue Mountain after death without any control." "Don't worry, I know what to do and will never let myself be trapped by others." Cheng Long looked down at her, his eyes following her movements, and he admired the girl Hongying seriously. "It's nothing to be trapped. The position of patrol god is something many people would love to have..." Jingjing made the bed neatly, stood up and noticed that Brother Long was staring at her. She asked shyly, "Brother Long, why are you staring at me?" "Of course I have to look at you when I talk to you, otherwise it would be rude." "Really?" Jingjing obviously didn't believe it. Just now, Brother Long looked at her with a look that was a little too hot. "It's almost time. I have to go to the water pond to wait for the Mountain Goddess. You should get some rest early." Without waiting for Jingjing's reply, Cheng Long turned and walked out of the room. It was not intentional or unintentional that this girl did not notice that a single button of her shirt was undone when she was helping him make the mat on the floor. For a meat-eater, feasting the eyes is not necessarily a good thing. After all, Alan, Mona, Hong Jie and A Zhui were not here. …… A few minutes later. Cheng Long came to the edge of the pond and was about to wash his face with water when he heard the graceful voice of Wangyue Shanjun behind him. "You came." "Yes, I'm coming." "You shouldn't have come." "But I'm already here." "Then you will be mine from now on." After a few simple conversations, Tang Sai'er took out her Mountain God Seal, and separated out a golden talisman which entered Cheng Long's brain.
next second. A warm feeling surged through my body. Cheng Long subconsciously activated the killing spell, and the magic attribute did not change. The agitated magic energy was still black, but this time it was not shiny black, but colorful black. "With this mountain god talisman, after you die, your soul will not be pulled by the underworld. No matter where you are, your soul can instantly return to the deity. At that time, I will help you rebuild your golden body and gain the ability of immortality. The mountain is here, the people are here, and the mountain is gone, the people are gone." Tang Sai'er put away the mountain god seal and said solemnly. "Sister Shanjun, is that all?" A talisman was planted on his soul, but Cheng Long didn't feel much. He could even use the system's rejection function to expel the talisman with just a thought. In other words. He can resign at any time without Tang Sai'er's consent. But he has no reason to do so at the moment. Because he became a subordinate general of Wangyue Mountain Lord, he did not lose his personal freedom. On the contrary, he gained many benefits. As long as the mountain god talisman was in his soul's sea of consciousness, any clergy, gods, and messengers he met in the future would give him some face. On the other hand, when practicing in Wangyue Mountain, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy will be even more terrifying than before. The spiritual awareness increased by as much as four or five times. With just one thought, one can sense the movements within a radius of twenty to thirty miles. These are all very intuitive benefits. "You slick-tongued brat! From now on, you can only call me Lady Shanjun, or just call me Lady Deity. You are not allowed to call me sister, understand?" Tang Sai'er frowned and looked at Cheng Long in a cold manner. She actually didn't object to the title of Mountain King, but she was over 500 years old and it was not easy for her to act younger. "Okay, Sister Shanjun." "you……" Tang Sai'er was so angry that she didn't want to talk to Cheng Long. She stared at him for a while. Seeing that he still refused to repent, she said helplessly: "Okay, you can call me sister if you like, but you can only call me that when there are no one around. When there are people around, you must call me Lady Shanjun. This is my biggest concession." "Thank you, Sister Shanjun!" Cheng Long raised his lips slightly. What can a tiger do? As long as they are women, there is no one who doesn't like to act stupid and young. Before I even put in any effort, Tang Sai'er gave in. "Come with me. I'll show you around. Don't let me fool you into not knowing how to find me when you return to Moon Viewing Mountain." "Sister Shanjun, now that you're at the pond, why don't you take a bath before going back? I'll keep watch for you." "Crack~~" Tang Sai'er was so angry that she slapped Cheng Long on the back of the head, but she probably didn't use much force, so her action did not trigger Cheng Long's stress response. "If you dare to talk nonsense again, you bastard, I will throw you into the pond and soak you for three days and three nights." "Oh, so cruel!"
"Humph, there are even more cruel things to come!" …… After a while. The hinterland of Wangyue Mountain. Cheng Long followed Tang Sai'er into a cave. When you enter the entrance, it is very narrow at first, but then it is passable. After walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly becomes open. The land is flat, the flowers and plants are fragrant, there are fertile fields, streams, and a forest. "Roar~~" A large and gorgeous tiger suddenly emerged from the mountain, bringing with it a gust of wind, swooped down, and rushed to Tang Sai'er at an extremely fast speed, rubbing Tang Sai'er's calf with its big head. "This is Hu Niu. When she met me three hundred years ago, she was still a lame little tiger..." "Can I touch it?" "Touch it if you want!" Tang Sai'er raised the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a wicked smile. Cheng Long didn't notice it. He curiously stretched out a hand and scratched Hu Niu's furry head. The touch is quite nice. "Roar~~" Hu Niu opened her bloody mouth, turned her head suddenly and bit Cheng Long's arm. Cheng Long shrank back suddenly, calmly avoiding Hu Niu's big mouth, and then looked at Tang Sai'er with a resentful look. "Tiger Girl, don't let anyone touch you except me. Be more careful in the future." Tang Sai'er held back her laughter, stretched out her long legs, sat on Hu Niu's spacious back, and said while riding the tiger: "This is the Mountain God Space, a world that belongs to me alone. It used to be very large here, with mountains, water, and lakes. But over the past five hundred years, the Mountain God Space has become smaller and smaller, with fewer mountains and the lakes drying up." "This space is less than one-third of the five hundred years. It may disappear in one or two hundred years..." "Is it because of the decrease in spiritual energy?" From Tang Sai'er's narration, Cheng Long heard her worries about the future. The Mountain God Space is essentially a paradise that requires a huge amount of spiritual energy to maintain. However, over the past five hundred years, all the paradises of various sects have been withering. The small spaces where mountain gods, land gods, river gods and other clergy live are also shrinking. Once everyone loses their place to live and needs to build temples on their own land to live in, will they still be transcendent to the outside gods? Although Tang Sai'er just said, as long as the mountain is there, the people are there; if the mountain is gone, the people are gone. But in fact, Tang Sai'er, the Lord of Moon-Watching Mountain, had long realized that the world was undergoing great changes. Perhaps within a hundred or two hundred years, this world would no longer need gods. What will happen to these mountain gods and land gods then?
"maybe!" Tang Sai'er sighed quietly but did not give a clear answer. When a world undergoes change or decline, it is often the result of the superposition of multiple factors. If it was simply because of the decline of spiritual energy, people would always be able to find ways to deal with it and would not allow the spiritual energy to continue to decline. Thanks to "紫夜黑魔" for the reward! I wish you all a happy New Year's Eve!
