Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 237 Youyuan's Request

Facing the old patriarch's violent venting, Yihuo remained calm, listening with his left ear and letting it out with his right ear, and looked up at the bright moon, which was indeed very crescent.

Yifeng was more straightforward. He walked into the pavilion and made tea with smooth movements.

Yijin stretched out his strong arms and did bodybuilding poses. If a fitness coach saw his muscles, he would probably die of shame.

Yang Chao, who followed closely, said to the old patriarch cheerfully: "Calm down, old man, don't let your anger get you in trouble."

As he spoke, he took out a shining silver long sword from his space ring and placed it in front of the old patriarch's table. He said in high spirits, "Patriarch, this is a third-grade high-level spiritual weapon that I created today out of my burst of inspiration. Please appreciate it."

"What a good sword! What a good sword." The old patriarch was immediately attracted by the long sword that was silver-white and glowing with a bright light. The urge to curse disappeared instantly.

Yihuo secretly gave Yang Chaojian a thumbs up, it has to be you.

The topic then turned to spiritual weapons. The old patriarch tapped the long sword spiritual weapon and said to Yang Chao with satisfaction: "Xiao Chao, as the strength of the men in the village grows, we have to reserve some spiritual weapons for them to absorb spirits, so I'm sorry to trouble you."

"It's all for the sake of the village. It's not hard work." Yang Chao waved his hand and said, "Hard work is secondary. The shortage of rare minerals is the big problem that needs to be solved right now."

"This..." The old patriarch pondered and looked at Shang Liangshan.

"Tu Lao can't leave recently, and Fang Kuai is still small and can't go out alone, so let's talk about it later." Shang Liangshan, who was lying down, replied.

"That's a problem." The old patriarch nodded and looked at Yang Chao and said, "Xiao Chao, refine as many spiritual tools as you can. After refining, we will take a rest. It's also time for you to have a good rest and gather your energy to make a baby."

"..." Yang Chao was speechless. How come the topic of conserving energy and having a baby came up?

The sound of crows calling "quack quack" came from the southwest.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw two streams of light, one black and one dim, merging under the moon.

"Haha, it turns out to be you, the devil crow. I thought there were snacks delivered to my door."

"Quack quack..."

"Haha, you devil crow, if it weren't for the fact that you're a messenger, I would have beaten you to death."

"Quack quack..."

"Haha, I'm so angry. I won't argue with you, a ghost crow."

In the pavilion, everyone couldn't help laughing as they listened to the faint conversation.

A faint light streaked across the night sky, and under everyone's gaze, the Nine Nether Ghost Crow flew into the pavilion and landed on the back of the chair next to Yihuo.

Yihuo quickly took the small bamboo tube, stood up and presented it to Shang Liangshan with both hands. Details determine how respected a person is.

Shang Liangshan took the small bamboo slips, and under the gaze of everyone, he skillfully opened them, poured out the scroll of paper, opened it and took a look at it, then handed the scroll of paper to the old patriarch.

The content of the scroll is as follows: Dear Master Xuanling, the high-ranking family members of our department have recently gathered outside the Shiwan Mountains. Three days later, they will set sail to enter the Shiwan Mountains. There are nearly 2,000 people, all of whom are ordinary people. Since humans and ghosts have different paths, we would like to ask your village to take them in. Youyuan respectfully presents.

"It's hard to make sense." After reading the message, the old patriarch handed it to Yifeng and muttered.

Shang Liangshan nodded without comment. Once they accepted the family members of the high-ranking officials of the Youye Palace, it would be really difficult to explain.

"We have to weigh the pros and cons carefully." Yifeng passed the message he had read to Yijin.

Yihuo leaned over to take a look, so the message quickly reached Yang Chao's hands.

Yang Chao only took a glance at it, then rolled up the letter and returned it to Shang Liangshan.

Everyone in the pavilion fell into deep thought.

Yihuo, who was only interested for a short time, was the first to be unable to bear this atmosphere and said irritably: "Should we take them in or not?"

"You fool, can't you see we are weighing the pros and cons?" said the old patriarch unhappily.

"There's nothing to weigh up. Didn't Taoist Xuan Ce ask us to try our best to be on good terms with the Youye Palace? Now the opportunity to do so has come." As soon as Yihuo said this, everyone looked up and remembered this.

"Dong Dong Dong" Shang Liangshan knocked on the table and looked at Yifeng and said, "Thank you for writing a reply letter, Great Elder. The general meaning is that Forgotten Township agrees to take us in and treat us equally."

"But those who enter the Forgotten Land are the people of the Forgotten Land. There are only two surnames, Yi and Wang, who cut off their previous lives and agree to escort them to the Forgotten Land."

"Okay," Yifeng nodded in agreement. Since Shang Liangshan had made the final decision, there was nothing more to discuss.

As I said before, the Lord Spirit of the Forgotten Village Temple is the greatest.

So he took out the four treasures of the study, pondered for a moment, and then began to write quickly as if possessed by God.

After a while, Yifeng put down his brush, picked up the calligraphy and blew it. After the ink dried, he stood up and presented it to Shang Liangshan with both hands. The latter took it, looked at it, and handed it to the old patriarch.

"I won't watch it. It gives me a headache." The old patriarch refused.

"I won't watch it either." Yihuo followed closely behind.

"I won't look either." Yijin followed.

"I've seen it." Yang Chao said with a smile.

Well, they are all people who don’t know how to appreciate the gracefulness of a pen.

Shang Liangshan could only fold up the calligraphy, roll it up, stuff it into a small bamboo slip, and throw it to Yihuo, who quickly tied it to the Nine Nether Ghost Crow.

"Quack" the Nine Nether Ghost Crow said hello and was about to spread its wings and fly, but was fixed by Shang Liangshan.

The Nine Nether Ghost Crow looked at Shang Liangshan in confusion, but when it saw Ying San appearing out of thin air beside the pavilion, it understood something and nodded to the latter.

Shang Liangshan had an idea and untied the Nine Nether Ghost Crow while sending Ying San back to the Taoist temple.

"Quack, quack" the Nine Nether Ghost Crow rushed towards Shang Liangshan, said something, and then spread its wings and flew away.

"Haha, little brother, you're leaving now without staying for a cup of tea."

"Quack quack..."

"Haha, you are really a little brother. You don't even know how to drink tea."

"Quack quack..."

"Haha, there are many kinds of tea, such as Daddy's Tea, Kung Fu Tea, Green Tea Bitch, Little Fairy..."

When Shang Liangshan heard this, his temples throbbed and he couldn't help but look at the old patriarch.

"Ahem." The old patriarch coughed awkwardly and diverted attention: "Do you think Youye Palace will agree to the conditions proposed by Liangshan?"

"Ken...he should agree." Yihuo changed direction and said with a lack of confidence.

"I will agree. We all know how difficult it is to build a village in the mountains." Yifeng said after taking a sip of tea.

"But they have the help of the Youye Palace." Yi Jin reminded.

"Humans and ghosts have different paths, so it is destined that the Youye Palace can't help much." The old patriarch shook his head.

"I was wondering why the upper echelons of Youye Palace wanted to send their families from this world to the Ten Thousand Mountains, and why they were willing to let us take them in?" Yang Chao went straight to the point.

After these words were spoken, everyone fell into deep thought again.

Shang Liangshan knocked on the table and said, "Just now, the Nine Nether Ghost Crow gave me a message that the continent is going to be in chaos."

"The mainland is going to be in chaos?" Voices of surprise arose.
