Start as a Temple Spirit

There was a reason for the old patriarch's words, because many half-grown orphans wanted to join the war, clamoring to kill the ghost beasts to avenge their relatives, and this matter had spread throughout the Forgotten Village.

"That's not the case." Shang Liangshan shook his head and said, "The situation has become increasingly turbulent. There is no extra time left for the students to study in peace. Moreover, hatred is already boiling over. If we suppress it, it may backfire and cause defects in their character."

“But the kids are too young after all, and their strength is only at the first or second level.” The old patriarch said in embarrassment.

"Let them start with logistics first."

The old patriarch pondered for a moment and then nodded.

Just like that, these two people decided the fate of nearly three thousand young people.

It was a dark night. The rookie spirit guards, numbering just over 2,000, led by Xiao Cao, entered the new community of thousands of families, left the Taoist temple, and rushed toward the battlefield. Everything was so silent.

The next morning, the old patriarch called Lin Weiwei, Yi Zhong, and Zhao Li to tell them the decision of the day.

"Chief, it's not my opinion as a woman, it's just that the kids are too young. Can you please take it slow?" Lin Weiwei said with a look of reluctance.

"If you want to blame someone, just blame the kids for being born in troubled times." The old patriarch sighed.

"Chief, can you please keep this promising student?" Zhao Li tried to get his help.

"Okay, but the number cannot exceed thirty." The old patriarch nodded in agreement.

"Curry doesn't have many weapons and equipment suitable for his younger classmates." Yi Zhong stated the practical difficulties.

"At this stage, the kids will only be responsible for logistics, so the weapons and equipment can be used for now." The old patriarch said this, stood up and walked out, saying as he walked: "I will go to arrange the weapons and equipment, you guys discuss who will stay and do a good job of mobilization and logistics."

The conference room suddenly fell into silence, so quiet that it made people feel suffocated.

"Hmm." Zhao Li cleared his throat and said, "Since it has been decided, let's do our best to implement it. The clan leader is right. If we want to blame someone, we should blame the kids for being born at the wrong time."

"But compared to those kids who can't see tomorrow in the area where ghost beasts are rampant, the students undoubtedly have a bright future."

"Because they spent a few years here without the smoke of war or endless darkness."

"Ah" a sigh, like a heavy hammer, hit Lin Weiwei's heart heavily, telling of her inner helplessness.

"Master's wife, we used to go hunting with our elders when we were ten years old." Yi Zhong said calmly, as if this was the most normal thing.

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Weiwei and Zhao Li fell silent, like sculptures.

The childhood of children in the mountains is not something that outsiders can understand.

Just as they were sighing and discussing the matter.

The old patriarch has already walked into the weapon forging workshop and called Yi Jin and Yang Chao to arrange for the students' weapons and equipment.

"Chief, if you really have to do this, can't you wait until the New Year to let the kids go out?" Yi Jin said with reluctance.

"The kids are only responsible for logistics. They are not asked to participate in the war. Why are you worrying about them?" said the old patriarch unhappily.

"Chief, this is just to fool women with long hair and little knowledge."

"Liang Shan's decision is right. Born in troubled times, the flowers in the greenhouse will only wither in the end." Yang Chao said after taking a sip of tea.

"Now that things have been decided, there is nothing more to say. You should hurry up and arm the kids." After the old patriarch finished speaking, he stood up and walked out, his back looking a little depressed.

Yi Jin waited until the old patriarch walked away, then looked at Yang Chao and asked in a low voice: "Do you know something, kid?"

"Uncle, don't you understand Liang Shan's character?"

"Of course I understand."

"Now that you understand, it's easy to understand why Liang Shan made this decision."

"I'm too lazy to think, just tell me."

"I..." Yang Chao looked at his uncle speechlessly, and then said: "Liang Shan must have felt the threat and pressure from the outside, so he made such a cruel decision."

"Threats and pressure?" Yi Jin looked at Yang Chao in confusion, not understanding why he said that.

"Don't ask me! I stay in the weapons forging workshop every day, how can I know the specific situation?" Yang Chao explained quickly.

"So you were just guessing!" Yi Jin was speechless.

"As long as I can guess the truth of the matter, that's all!" Yang Chao picked up the teacup, drank the tea in it, then stood up and prepared to arrange the next task.

"Oh, if only Lao Wu were still here." Yi Jin couldn't help but think of the big-mouthed Yihuo who had gone to the war, and his heart was filled with emotion and longing.

"Yawn." Zheng Mao was standing on the treetops, looking at the distant fire. He couldn't help but yawn and muttered in his heart, "What a woman! Why would she miss me for no reason? Doesn't she know that I'm fighting a war?"

"Haha, Lao Huo, have you caught a cold?" Heizi, who was hiding on the tree branch, asked with concern.

"No." Yihuo shook his head and couldn't help wondering what his wife wanted to do with him.

He couldn't help but mutter, "My wife is really weird. She doesn't think about it at home, but she thinks about it as soon as she goes out. Women's hearts are really like the sea needle!"

This was heard by the unscrupulous Heizi, who couldn't help but joked: "Haha, Lao Huo, you weren't hurt by your wife, were you?"

Yihuo glared at Heizi and replied unhappily: "Stop talking nonsense, I'm very strong, I just had an itchy nose, you know what it means to have an itchy nose."

"Haha, Lao Huo, I don't know you! But then again, is the woman really that powerful?"

"Hey, you'll know when you find the mother bird. Wait, Heizi, what did you call me just now?"

"Haha, old fire."

"You have no respect for your elders. If I could beat you, I would definitely give you a beating."

"Haha, I'm afraid you won't have this opportunity in your lifetime."

Yihuo was speechless and felt very angry.

At this moment, Heizi suddenly flew to Yihuo's shoulder mysteriously and asked in a low voice: "Haha, Laohuo, have you heard of a legend?"

Yihuo asked curiously: "What legend? Tell me about it."

Heizi lowered his voice and said, "Haha, it is said that there is a magical fruit in this forest. After eating it, people can become stronger. Having sex seven times a night is just child's play."

Yihuo's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately became interested: "Really? Where is this fruit? Let's go find it!"

Heizi chuckled and said proudly, "Haha, don't worry, I already know where it is. I'll pick it after the battle is over."

"I'm not going to talk to you anymore, let's get down to business. Why are the ghost locusts still nowhere to be seen? Have they changed their route?" Yihuo hadn't seen the ghost locusts arrive for a long time, so he couldn't help but look at Heizi and ask.

"Haha, no, if the group of ghost snakes changes their route, I will come to report it." Heizi responded.

"Don't imitate my way of talking." Yihuo glared at it.

"Haha, I didn't learn it." Heizi flatly denied it.
