Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 103 The Mountain God Priest
In the Luo Family Inn, Jiang Yue and the other two successfully reunited with Yue Jiuhua, ordered a large table of dishes, and explained the situation to Yue Jiuhua.

"It's actually a ghost? It seems that it may be related to the tiger in Black Wind Village. Brother Jiang, your speculation makes sense."

Yue Jiuhua said in a deep voice: "Now that the murderous ghost has been killed, the evidence is solid, and the matter is temporarily over. As for whether there are new ghosts, there are definitely some, because I have faced ghosts before. A tiger that has become a demon in the third realm can refine hundreds of ghosts. However, the strength of this ghost master is not strong. It is estimated that he has not reached the third realm, otherwise the ghost's strength would not be only the initial realm."

"This is a good thing. If the tiger master is nearby, the ghost's strength will increase dramatically. We can even possess the ghost, which will cause obvious changes. This will make it easier for us to detect whether the Beast God Cult is coming."

Hearing that Yue Jiuhua had faced a ghost before, Jiang Yue and the other two listened attentively.

Zhang Tie said in a deep voice: "If this is the case, we still have to be on guard against the ghosts. We must leave one person in the town."

"I'll stay in town."

Jiang Yue volunteered, saying, "I have a goshawk that patrols the sky. I'll take it with me to patrol the mountains. The goshawk is high in the sky with a wide field of vision, so it's perfect for me."

In fact, Jiang Yue was afraid that there would be more ghosts in the town. It would be bad if his family members were harmed. If he could stay in the town, at least he could guarantee the safety of his grandfather and Silang.

It also does not interfere with his inspection of the mountains and forests, after all, he has a celestial perspective.

"So good."

Zhang Tie smiled and said, "Sixth Master, what you said is true. The hawk is high in the sky, and its field of vision when patrolling the mountains and forests is much wider than ours. No wonder the mountain patrol officers would raise a falcon, it is indeed convenient."

"Yes."

Jiang Yue smiled.

Afterwards, Zhang Tie and the other two started to arrange their shifts. With the presence of Jiang Yue's Goshawk, the patrol pressure on the three of them was much less. They could basically free up time for sleep and patrol day and night.

"If we discover it in time this time, our position as a mountain patrol officer will be secure."

Zhang Tie said with emotion: "I hope you will do your best. Zhang Tie thanks you again."

"It's okay, we are all colleagues and we will do our best."

Yue Jiuhua said with a smile.

After they finished their meal and wine, Jiang Yue led them into the mountains again. After all, they did not have Jiang Yue's talent and the mountain roads were very complicated. It was impossible for them to remember the road to the mountains just by thinking about it once.

After leading a few people back to the mountain temple, Jiang Yue left the map to them, and at the same time, they reported the decision-making and deployment information to their immediate superior Yuan Gang through the mountain patrol token.

If you want to gain merit, the more you report, the better, and the more detailed the better.

"Everyone, I'm back in town."

Jiang Yue cupped his hands.

"it is good."

Zhang Tie pointed to the patrol token on his waist and said, "If there is anything important, you can contact me directly with the patrol token."

"no problem."

Jiang Yue nodded slightly, turned and left.

This time he did not wander in the mountains for too long, nor did he take Xiaotian to look for magical treasures, so as to prevent ghosts from appearing in the town.
-
An hour later, Jiang Yue brought Xiaotian back to Funiu Village.

At this time, the sun was setting and smoke was rising. It should have been dinner time and there should be no one on the village streets, but at this time there were a lot of villagers gathered in the village.

"what?"

Jiang Yue let out a light exclamation, somewhat puzzled.

Seeing Jiang Yue, someone shouted: "Erlang is back!"

Then the villagers rushed forward and surrounded Jiang Yue.

Zhao Qilang said excitedly: "Erlang, the village elders came to our village and said that you will preside over the mountain god sacrifice before the New Year! Our Funiu Village is really impressive this time."

"What? I'll preside over the mountain god ceremony?"

Jiang Yue was a little surprised and asked, "Isn't the Mountain God Festival hosted by the village elders and Mr. Lin? Why am I the one taking over this year?"

Zhao Qi smiled and said, "You should ask the elders in our town."

The people made way for them and three village elders came over. When they saw Jiang Yue, they all smiled.

There are a total of four village elders in Qingyang Town, Mr. Lin is one of them, and the other three are clan elders from the big families in the town. They have all lived for a long time and have great prestige.

"Ji Lang, it's like this."

One of the village elders smiled and said, "In the past, the Mountain God Festival before the New Year was presided over by Master Lin, but now Master Lin is injured, so we thought of letting you preside over the Mountain God Festival."

"That's right. Erlang is a hero among men. He came from a mountain village and became a warrior. It's only right for him to preside over the mountain god festival."

The other two village elders echoed.

In fact, even if Mr. Lin was not injured, they also planned to invite Jiang Yue to preside over the mountain god sacrifice. After all, Jiang Yue’s strength and background are there.

"Hey, Erlang, don't refuse."

The village elder advised: "Don't worry about the sacrificial text or the process. We have prepared everything for you. You just need to go up and preside over it."

"Alright."

Jiang Yue originally wanted to refuse and didn't want to show up in public, but a divine light suddenly flashed on Erlang Shen's seal, and Jiang Yue agreed.

Perhaps presiding over the mountain god sacrifice will have huge benefits for one’s destiny?

Jiang Yue didn't understand why, but if Erlang Shen's seal responded, he would just go. There was nothing wrong with presiding over a mountain god sacrifice.

"So good."

Seeing Jiang Yue agree, the village elder breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We will send the sacrificial text and procedures tomorrow. It's almost the New Year, so the date is three days later. Erlang, don't forget the time. This is a major event that happens once a year in Qingyang Town."

"Well, I see."

Jiang Yue nodded slightly.

The village elders and Jiang Yue were very polite and exchanged greetings for a while before leaving in a hurry.

Now, the villagers of Funiu Village are all smiling and feeling proud, because they are presiding over the mountain god sacrifice!

Only the most prestigious person in a town can preside over the mountain god festival!

By then, all the people in the town will see it, which is a great honor in itself. They are in the same village as Jiang Yue, so they will be proud to tell others about it.

Old man Jiang Cong's face was full of smiles, and he was very pleased looking at Jiang Yue, who was full of energy and vigor.

"Go home and eat!"

Jiang Yue smiled, said goodbye to the villagers, went back to his grandfather's house for dinner, and told Xuntian to patrol the forest tonight.

Han Li and the other two patrolled the mountains and forests during the day, and left it to Xuntian himself at night. Xuntian's eagle eyes were very powerful and could see extremely clearly even at night.
-
Silent all night.

The tiger did not appear in the dream again, perhaps because he was afraid that Jiang Yue would kick him again in the dream, or perhaps he was already planning to kill Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue didn't know what the tiger was doing and slept very comfortably.

The next morning, the village elders delivered the obituary.

Jiang Yue only knew more than 300 Chinese characters, and most of the sacrificial text contained some rare characters. However, Jiang Yue had a clear mind, so the village elders only had to read it a few times and Jiang Yue had memorized it all.

As for the sacrificial process, it is also very simple. It involves reciting sacrificial texts, killing animals to sacrifice to the mountain god, burning incense to the statue in the mountain god temple, and then reciting the sacrificial texts again.

After seeing off the village elder, Xuntian also came back. It circled down from the sky and landed steadily on Jiang Yue's arm.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Jiang Yue stroked the feathers on Xuntian's neck and said, "Go and have a rest. I'll get you some meat."

"Wang-"

Hearing the word "meat", Xiaotian woke up immediately, ran over with his tongue hanging out, making Jiang Yue laugh and cry.

pop-

Two pieces of bear meat were put into two huge food bowls respectively. Xiaotian and Xuntian smelled the aroma of the meat and hurriedly began to eat.

[Life Essence +10]

[Life Essence +10]

【.】

[Life Essence: 320]

Dozens of kilograms of bear meat entered the stomachs of the two beasts, providing another forty points of life essence.

Looking at the life essence prompt, Jiang Yue suddenly remembered that he had not eaten the earth-turning dragon he had picked, and had not given Silang the twenty snake fruits he had picked. "I have been guarding Qingyang Town recently, and I have nothing to do. I can talk to Silang about cultivation."

Jiang Yue stroked his chin.

Although his martial arts were inherited from his master and he couldn't teach it to Silang, the precious medicine like snake fruit was grown by absorbing snake corpses. As long as he ate it and ran and jumped around, he would be able to temper his skin membrane.

After all, the essence of refining the method is to destroy and then rebuild. As long as it can cause damage to the body, it can be considered as refining the method. Running, jumping, and even self-mutilation can be considered as refining the method. It's just that it's a bit crude, not unusable.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yue ate the earth-turning dragon in one bite.

The earth-turning dragon absorbs the essence of the mountains and the earth to grow. It is as heavy as a mountain and has a great effect on improving the physical strength.

Jiang Yue only felt that a dragon was entering his stomach and quickly turned into hot streams.

Then, the three furnaces in his body began to operate, absorbing the surging medicinal power and transforming it into gushing streams of qi and blood.

With the gushing of qi and blood, Jiang Yue's physical quality is rapidly improving.

He hurriedly sat down cross-legged and began to practice the Heavenly Demon Furnace Scroll and the Monkey Furnace.

Under the power of the medicine, damaged internal organs can recover quickly, so Jiang Yue can build the monkey furnace with confidence without worrying about internal injuries caused by excessive speed.

On the contrary, the faster the speed, the better, because the faster the construction speed, the faster the internal organs will be repaired, and the better the medicinal properties can be utilized.

The Monkey Furnace was being built rapidly.

After two quarters of an hour, the effect of the medicine subsided and the monkey furnace was completed.

The prompt on the panel flashed.

[Heavenly Demon Furnace Treasure Scroll lv4 → Heavenly Demon Furnace Treasure Scroll lv5]

Up to now, the Heavenly Demon Furnace Scroll has built four furnaces, and only the last furnace is left. He will be able to break into the second realm and become a second realm warrior.

Jiang Yue himself had not expected such a rapid improvement in strength.

There are really too many treasures in this mountain. When he was weak, he couldn't see them, so he could only look for some low-level precious medicines and was chased all over the mountain by monkeys. Now that his strength has increased, he can grab the precious medicines guarded by the big black bear and the giant python. Of course, his strength has increased a lot faster.

"call--"

"According to Yue Jiuhua's speculation, the strength of the fierce tiger is only the second level. If I break through the second level, even if the fierce tiger comes for revenge, I won't have to be afraid."

Jiang Yue clenched his fists and felt that it was almost time.

Carrying the three-pointed, double-edged sword and taking Xiaotian with him, Jiang Yue went to his grandfather's house and called Silang.

At this time, Grandpa and Silang were both awake. Grandpa was sitting in the yard smoking a pipe, while Silang was weaving a rattan chair beside him.

"Shiro, let's go. Today, my second brother will take you to practice."

Jiang Yue opened the door and spoke without waiting for his grandfather to wonder.

Upon hearing this, Silang was stunned, and his grandfather was also stunned.

"Why are you standing there? Don't you want to learn?"

Jiang Yue smiled.

"miss you!"

Silang stood up excitedly and asked excitedly: "Second brother, can I really learn it?"

"of course can."

Jiang Yue smiled.

Grandpa asked with some concern: "Erlang, is the murder over now?"

"No."

Jiang Yue took out his patrol token, showed it to his grandfather, and said, "I am now a temporary patrol flag. I have to patrol Qingyang Town to prevent disasters. I have to go to work during the day, so I thought of taking Silang with me and teaching him martial arts."

"Patrol officer?!"

Jiang Cong looked at the token, his eyes widened, and he was so excited that there were even tears in his eyes.

Although Grandpa Jiang Cong had never left the mountains, Zhou Tianyi and Qin Hehe often came to visit him, and he more or less knew what a mountain patrol official was. He never thought that Jiang Yue had already become a mountain patrol official!

Although it's just a temporary position, I will be able to become a full-time employee after the temporary position is completed.

His grandson has really made it!
"Go ahead, Shiro, learn from your second brother."

Jiang Cong patted Jiang Yue's shoulder with satisfaction and said with emotion: "Erlang, you have worked hard."

"It's not hard."

Jiang Yue smiled.

If it weren't for Grandpa Jiang Cong, he would have starved to death long ago. It's only right for him to do all this.

"Xiaotian, you just stay at home. If anything happens, call a dog from the village to come to Luo's Inn to find me and protect grandpa. Got it?"

Jiang Yue rubbed Xiaotian's head and gave instructions.

"Wang-"

Although Xiaotian wanted to play with Jiang Yue, he strictly followed Jiang Yue's words, so he went into Dahuang's doghouse after barking.

Dahuang looked so pitiful that he could only run outside the doghouse and lie down.

"Let's go."

Jiang Yue called out, "Grandpa, we are leaving now. Don't go out."

"it is good!"

Jiang Cong nodded slightly.
-
Jiang Yue brought Silang Jiang Hao all the way to Luo's Inn.

The remaining three yamen runners from Qingyang Town were already waiting here, and there was also a new face, whom Jiang Yue had never seen before. He was probably the new yamen runner who would replace Yamen Runner Sun.

Because Yue Jiuhua lived here yesterday, Luo's Inn has become a temporary office for the Qingyang Town government officials.

After all, the yamen runners didn't dare to tell the patrolling officers that they were going somewhere else to do business, so they just came here.

"Meet Sixth Master."

When the yamen runners saw Jiang Yue coming, they bowed to him.

There was also a Luo's waiter waiting here, and he said with a folded hand, "Sixth Master, the shopkeeper came back yesterday and reserved a courtyard for you."

"Okay, take us there first."

The waiter led the way, Jiang Yue followed, Silang followed Jiang Yue curiously, and the four yamen runners followed behind Jiang Yue, one body length behind him, and were very respectful.

The courtyard gate opened, and the one-armed old man was seen waving a long sword in the yard. Although he had only one arm, his sword was wielded with great vigor and the sound was terrifying.

Seeing Jiang Yue coming in, the old man danced with his sword and put the long sword into the scabbard with one hand.

"Here comes Jiro."

The old one-armed man smiled and said, "Your second sister asked me to take care of you if you stay in Qingyang Town to patrol. There is no government office in Qingyang Town, only the guards' quarters. Yue Jiuhua and the others live here, so I guess you have nowhere else to go, so I just left a small courtyard for you to work in."

"Thank you, senior."

Jiang Yue smiled and understood.

His immediate superior is Yuan Gang, and yesterday's decisions have been reported to him. Yuan Gang knows that Qingyang Town is Luo's territory, so he asked the second senior sister to take care of him.

Jiang Yue felt deeply moved, "Senior brothers and sisters, you are so nice to him."

"I'm leaving first. If you need anything, just tell the guys. I'm at the hunting ground."

The old one-armed man smiled, turned around and left the courtyard. Only Jiang Yue, four yamen runners and Silang Jiang Hao were left in the large courtyard.

Jiang Hao stood timidly behind Jiang Yue, looking at the tall yamen runners in official uniforms with some fear.

However, Jiang Hao was greatly surprised by the attitude of the four yamen runners towards Jiang Yue.

One of the yamen runners stepped forward, bowed, and said respectfully, "Sixth Master, I am the new Qin Shouze, replacing Yamen Rune Sun. Do you think we need to reshuffle the areas we manage? Or should I just take over the area that Yamen Rune Sun is in charge of?"

The current official is not as good as the current manager. Jiang Yue now holds the mountain patrol token and handles important matters in Qingyang Town. Although he is not the immediate superior of these yamen runners, the yamen runners serve Jiang Yue carefully and listen to him in everything.

What's more, Jiang Yue is extremely powerful and has a strong background, and they cannot afford to provoke him.

It was precisely because of this that the attitude of the yamen runners was even a little flattering, which made Jiang Hao, who was standing by, open his eyes wide, and he deeply felt the power of his second brother.
