Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 347 Combination of Work and Rest

"Moo" the Thunder Dragon arrived, uttered a loud dragon roar, and excitedly swallowed the corpse of the Ghost Winged Dragon Beast into its stomach. It then manifested its true form and set out on a new journey with its master.

This scene caught the eyes of the search team members, and they burst into a frenzy of faith.

It is because of the two of them who are at the front that the Spirit Guards and Eagle Guards have a slight advantage in strength.

It was a sunny day in March, and a black boat was traveling together with a tower boat.

Liu Yu's iconic voice once again rang out from the deck of the Wu boat, attracting the old farmers working in the fields to happily joke with him.

"Manager Liu, are you bringing guests here or your female relatives?" an old farmer asked loudly.

"Hey, brother, don't say that. The visitors are the elders and other women from the Women's College."

"Oh, it turns out that you are female visitors. Mr. Li and his friends are from Yixin College."

"Thank you for telling me." Liu Yu thanked him and asked, "How is the village doing recently?"

"As always, our men are out there fighting to protect our homeland."

"What was the result?"

"We don't know about that. Fortunately, the boys were only injured but not killed."

"That's good, that's good, brother. The elder sisters are busy first, so I'll go ahead."

"Manager Liu, you are busy."

This conversation reached the ears of the women on the deck, causing a burst of whispers.

The elders of the Women's College came with a team, but it did not cause any big waves. It was Lin Weiwei who came out to entertain them.

The Forgotten Township's lack of attention naturally caused some dissatisfaction among the female elders, but when she saw the teams of patrolling guards, her dissatisfaction immediately disappeared.

"Weiwei, when did the guards of Forgotten Township become so powerful?" On the village wall, the female elder Gao Ting looked at the guards patrolling on horseback on the field roads and asked in surprise.

"The entire guard team broke through to the fourth level last year. Coupled with the continuous battles in the past six months, their strength has also improved by leaps and bounds, which is why they have the combat power they have today." Lin Weiwei explained softly, with a hint of pride in her heart. The Forgotten Township today is no longer what it used to be.

"Continuous battles?" Gao Ting asked.

Lin Weiwei could only briefly describe the fierce battle with the army of ghost beasts.

Just as the two were talking, a hunting team filled with murderous intent returned from the mountain path, carrying bamboo baskets on their backs. There were about two to three hundred people.

They were full of blood and murderous intent. It was obvious at first glance that they were elite soldiers who had fought in many battles. They responded and talked to each other with joy.

"What is this?" Gao Ting asked again.

"This is a wolf rider who has broken through to the fourth level and is returning to his hometown to collect spirits." Lin Weiwei had to explain again.

In the meeting room, the old patriarch, Yifeng, Yishui and Yitu gathered together to discuss something.

"Chief, Lao Tu and I can't suppress our state of mind anymore. We have to go into seclusion. You have to find someone to take charge of the affairs of Forgotten Village and Forgotten Village." Yishui said firmly.

Their plan to retreat and break through was repeatedly delayed.

"This matter..." The old patriarch pondered for a while, looked at Yifeng and said, "Old Feng, it's time to add more responsibilities to Xiaozhong and the others."

"Clan leader, Xiaozhong and the others have a heavy burden on their hands. They have to be responsible for teaching and handle village affairs." Yifeng tried his best to buy time for his beloved disciple to have a baby.

"Don't talk nonsense with the old man. How about this? Xiaozhong will help you deal with the affairs of the village, Xiaoxiao will be responsible for Yixin Village, Xiaoliang will be responsible for Wangque Village, and Xiaoquan will be responsible for Wanghuai Village. Laoshui, Laotu, what do you two think of this arrangement?"

"Agree." Yishui and Yitu, who couldn't wait to go into seclusion, naturally agreed.

Legacy…

"Then let's talk about the wolf riders." The old patriarch looked at Yifeng who was depressed for his disciples and asked, "Old Feng, how many third-rank men are there who can be replaced?"

"Not many, only two hundred." Yifeng replied.

"Just over 200, so he can still hold out for a month. In that case, let's talk about it after a month. I'll go call Liang Shan out for a drink. Cultivation requires a combination of work and rest."

"Chief, let's go too. After we have eaten and drunk our fill and gone into seclusion, we will be able to make a breakthrough naturally." Yishui followed.

"Yes, yes, yes." Yi Tu echoed.

"Alas," Yifeng sighed, and went to find his beloved disciple to add to the burden for them so that he could go drink. When he thought about drinking, his footsteps were getting closer and closer to entering the grave of marriage.

When the four people, Zhongxiao and Liangquan, heard the arrangement, they looked at the teacher with resentment.

"Don't look at me like that. I have already tried my best. Besides, look at Yibao and the others. They have already become independent very early. How can you still indulge in such a sweet life?" Yifeng began to lecture him with a look of regret.

In the newly built Underground Palace No. 5, under a big tree, in front of a simple stone table, several old men with wet hair were sitting around, eating meat and drinking.

These people are Yihuo, Yibao and others.

They were surrounded by tables of men, eating, drinking, chatting and gossiping.

"Fifth Elder, can you wait until we come out of seclusion before killing the ghost beast?" said Yixiong.

"Just rest assured and focus on your breakthrough. The new Wolf Knights will need eight or nine days of adaptive training. Plus, the rally is about to start, so we have to lead the way and provide security. So we need to rest for half a month this time." Yihuo said unclearly.

The reasons he mentioned above were only secondary. The main reason was that Shang Liangshan had just sent him a message, asking him to stop fighting for half a month to avoid the battle with monsters and ghost beasts.

It was not only Yihuo and his men who were fighting fiercely with the ghost beasts, but also all the creatures in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Besides, sometimes showing off one's talents is not a good thing as it will attract targeting.

Thousands of ghost wolf beasts chasing after them was a sign of things to come.

In fact, even if Shang Liangshan did not send a message, Yihuo was prepared to let his men have a good rest so that the wolf riders could refine the reward from the will of the mountains and rivers.

In the pavilion on Yanfeng Mountain, Shang Liangshan and others also started eating and drinking.

He was called out by the old patriarch.

"Liangshan, what has Heizi been doing during this period? Why hasn't he come back?" asked the old patriarch after taking a sip of wine.

The old man hadn't seen Heizi for a while, so it was inevitable that he missed him a little.

"It is running around with its little brothers, protecting the search team, and is very busy." Shang Liangshan said with a smile.

"The mainland is the main battlefield, which is conducive to the growth of Heizi and others." Yifeng said.

"The continent is now in dire straits. The major forces can only defend their cities and barely resist the attack of hundreds of millions of ghost beasts, but blood is also flowing for thousands of miles." Liu Yu murmured.

"I'm a little curious, how do you, Huitong Trading Company, maintain trade exchanges under such circumstances?" Yishui asked curiously.

"This is not a secret, it's just a detour. Our Huitong Trading Company has been established for hundreds of years and has never stopped exploring new trade routes. This time we put it to use."

"I don't think it's that simple, but I won't ask any more questions."

"Haha, every force has its own secrets." Liu Yu's words were an admission of Yishui's guess.

"Come and drink, no need to ask questions, as long as there is goods to trade." The old patriarch invited people to drink.

"Yes, drink." Yifeng and others echoed.
