Chapter 187 Merit
Chapter 187 Merit
"Everyone has some merit, some have more and some have less. You have some, but the problem is that there are too many contractors who rely on you, and they have all been consumed by you! If you want to earn merit, you have to do good deeds, but the merit gained from doing good deeds in the Yang world is very little. So, brother, I will set up a work unit for you in the underworld, which specializes in eliminating the obsessions of those who don't want to reincarnate. The price is to exchange all their merits with you. How about it?"
Nan Zhaozhao always felt that his senior brother was trying to trick him, but he had no evidence. "Senior brother, isn't this a bit unfair? The power of merit is hard to obtain. Some people have accumulated merit for several lifetimes to accumulate just a little bit! Or isn't it a bit too much to ask for all of their merit to help them eliminate their obsession?"
"You're overthinking it. It's just a fair trade between us. If it's reluctant, then there's no need to trade. No one's forcing it!"
Nan Zhaozhao felt that what her senior brother said was right. It was a fair transaction between both parties, and there was no coercion. She felt that this matter could be done, but, "Senior brother, will this job be very tiring?"
"No, once you get used to it, you won't feel tired at all!"
"Okay then, I'll listen to you!"
"Well, then you should come down tonight and get familiar with the nature of your job!"
Nan Zhaozhao was startled. She had to report to the underworld tonight. Was it too soon? She hadn't even prepared yet. "Going down tonight? No, Brother, I'm in the Yang World now. It's not that easy for me to go down there. I have to wait until the Ghost Festival or Qingming Festival. I can only go down when the gates of hell are opened!"
"No need. I gave you a Ten Thousand Ghosts Seal before. That seal also serves as a medium between the Yin and Yang worlds. As long as you have that seal, you can start your journey to the underworld anytime and anywhere!"
Haha, I have to say, senior brother really thought it through comprehensively. He had already arranged her current affairs so long ago.
Nan Zhaozhao always had the feeling that she was being tricked by her senior brother, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
"Okay, I'll go down tonight!"
After hanging up the video call with the senior brother, Nan Zhaozhao finally had time to go see Shui Ling and Mu Ling. Shui Ling shared half of her spiritual power with Mu Ling, which helped it temporarily draw a human form and recognize her. Well done to Shui Ling!
In the mind space, after Nan Zhaozhao visited the water spirit, he went to the wooden gate to visit the wood spirit. The wood spirit had returned to its habitat and had already burrowed into the soil to recuperate. Seeing its master coming to see it, the wood spirit forced itself to cheer up and greeted Nan Zhaozhao, "Master, it's been ten thousand years. It's been ten thousand years since Mumu left you. It's been too long. Mumu really misses you so much!"
Isn't it because of missing it? The wood spirit is relying on this thought to survive until now. If the master had come one or two hundred years later, it would really disappear between heaven and earth!
Nan Zhaozhao felt a little guilty. Ever since she was reborn, she had been like a real child, living happily and heartlessly for so many years. Not to mention whether she missed them or not, she didn't even know if they existed, so she felt guilty!
"Well, Mumu, it's my fault. I came too late and made you suffer so much. Don't worry, I will work hard to improve my cultivation so that you can recover soon and return to your peak period!" Nan Zhaozhao's ambition is indeed grand, but no one knows when he can achieve it.
Mumu was so moved that he said, "Master, you are so kind. Master, I want to tell you a secret!"
"What?" Secrets are good, she likes to listen to other people's secrets!
"Master, I know that there is a Ding buried in a mountain in Pingshi, Chuancheng. I have seen it. It looks like a magic weapon that fell from the upper world. I just don't know who its previous owner was!"
"Top? Is it the kind of furnace top used for alchemy?"
"Yes, Master, let's go get it back now. I'm worried that someone might find it and take it away!"
"When did you see it? Before you came here?"
"Yes, I fell into the mortal world from above at almost the same time as that furnace top, and we landed in the same mountain. After ten thousand years, all the energy in my body was almost used up, and I was discovered by a human and brought back."
"Are you sure that top hasn't been discovered yet?"
"This... I'm not sure, but before I'm discovered, I'm sure it hasn't been discovered by anyone and is still in that mountain!"
"Got it. We'll go check it out when we get a chance. Have a good rest. I'm leaving now!"
After exiting the Wooden Gate, Nan Zhaozhao saw her four contracted beasts standing outside the door, staring at her eagerly. Coming to this world without spiritual energy, Qinglong and Xuanwu could not stay outside for a long time. They also needed to practice, so Nan Zhaozhao sent them into the state of mind space. After all, there was plenty of spiritual energy here, enough for them to practice inside!
"What do you want to do? I haven't done anything to let you down!"
The white tiger scratched its fur with its little claws and said, "Master, we also want to follow you outside. It's too boring to stay here all the time!"
"What are you bored about? You still have to practice. How can you follow me out to eat, drink and have fun?" As soon as she finished speaking, Nan Zhaozhao regretted saying the wrong thing. What does eating, drinking and having fun mean? She is undergoing training, serious training and traveling!
"See, I was right. The master just wants to leave us behind and live a good life!" Zhuque said as if he had caught Nan Zhaozhao's handle.
"Oh, I didn't. Believe me. When we return to the spiritual world of cultivation, I will definitely let you out to eat, drink and have fun with me, okay?"
Qinglong said, "Master, today, you have to take one of the four of us out. We can absorb the spiritual energy in your mind just by attaching ourselves to you. You don't have to worry about that!"
"Xiao Qing, you've also learned bad habits. How come you, who has always been steady, have become like them? I really can't help myself. They won't let me take all four of you out!"
Xuanwu, the clever little devil, turned around and walked away, saying as he walked, "Forget it, forget it, the master doesn't love us anymore. We are just her contracted beasts, not like she said, we are her darlings!"
Nan Zhaozhao felt really guilty after hearing this. "No, it's not what you think. Well, since you all want to follow me, why don't you all turn into an ornament and I'll wear you on my body? That should be fine, right?"
Seeing that the master finally agreed, they cheered, but Qinglong was the only one who still had the look of a cold and aloof male god, but everyone could see that he was in a good mood. Qinglong turned into a green ring and was put on Nan Zhaozhao's wrist as before, and Xuanwu turned into a jade pendant and was worn around her neck. Suzaku and Baihu used to be Nan Zhaozhao's little pets, but now they really didn't know what they would turn into!
"You, Xiao Zhuzhu, will become a hair accessory and be responsible for my daily hairstyle. You, Xiaobai, will become a small bag and be responsible for managing my daily necessities. From now on, I will always carry you on my back!"
Suzaku and Baihu agreed in unison and happily transformed into the parts that Nan Zhaozhao needed and hung them on her body.
