Traveling through time as a goblin, just wanting to live a leisurely life

Yigan was not very lucky today. After eating at the grilled fish stall, he wandered around for two hours but didn't find a penny.

Normally, it can rely on its talent for treasure hunting to pick up at least a few cents on the road, and if accumulated over two or three days, it can have a meal.

But Yigan didn't care. All he wanted now was to go back to the fairyland to fish.

With a fishing rod made of branches of the World Tree and earthworms from the Iron-eating Beast Forest, it believes that it can catch fish.

The short two hours since he came to the mortal world passed quickly, and Yigan returned to the fairyland.

It did not go to sleep immediately, but instead learned a method it saw when it just came down to earth. After hanging the bait and casting the rod, it fixed the fishing rod on the seashore.

This way it can have a good sleep and wake up the next day to see if there are any fish taking the bait.

"Amitabha!"

The next morning, the old monk appeared on time outside the goblin's cave-like house built with sand.

Every morning before dawn, the old monk would appear on time and ask Yi Gan to get up and recite scriptures and chant Buddha's name as morning prayers.

"Wake up, Yigan, it's time for morning lessons."

The old monk said.

Yi Gan didn't notice him at all and was snoring loudly.

"Greed and laziness are the biggest obstacles on the road to cultivation. If you want to transcend and return to the mortal world and become a member of the immortal world, you must make unremitting efforts. So Yigan, it's time to get up."

Maybe because he was too tired from fishing the day before, Yi Gan slept very soundly and did not hear the old monk's words at all.

"Hulu~"

Only snoring responded.

"OM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

A strong light flashed, and a Buddhist chant was heard. Yi Gan was awakened by the sound waves and felt dizzy.

"Master Zhengguang... I don't return to the fairyland until two in the morning every day, and I fished all day the day before. Can you let me take a day off today? Or should I sleep a little longer and come to find you when I wake up?"

Yi Gan would be transported to the mortal world between midnight and 12 a.m. every day, but Master Zhengguang would wake Yi Gan up between 2:4 and 5: every day to go to the temple for morning prayers. Yi Gan felt that his sleep time was not enough.

"What? You're still fishing? Amitabha! What a sin! What a sin! How many times have I told you to keep a vegetarian diet and you didn't even listen? You must have eaten meat again in the underworld last night, right? Don't answer me, you must have eaten! Go back to the temple right now and double your morning prayers today!"

Yigan let out a wail and was dragged back to the temple by Master Zhengguang to chant Buddhist scriptures. He continued to chant until noon, when he came out of Master Zhengguang's temple with dull eyes and in a trance.

"Amitabha...Ami...Aba Aba..."

He was talking nonsense and couldn't even walk properly.

It was not until Yi Gan sat down on the beach and let the waves wash over his body that he gradually came to his senses.

"My master, the magician, said that goblins are creatures driven by desire and instinct. It is too torturous for me to suppress my nature and sit on a cushion and chant Buddha's name!"

Yi Gan felt very aggrieved, but he didn't dare to talk back in front of Master Zhengguang.

It’s not because Master Zhengguang is domineering but good to it, but because Yigan simply cannot defeat Master Zhengguang.

In a sense, he thought Master Zhengguang was more terrifying than those magicians who bullied him.

"Yes! My fishing rod!"

As his mind gradually cleared, Yi Gan remembered the fishing rod he had fixed on the beach last night.

Yi Gan hurried over and picked up the fishing rod impatiently, but it was empty, even the bait was gone.

"Fishing all night with no fish?"

Yi Gan was very disappointed. He silently took back the fishing rod and planned to put the bait again and fish again.

I took out the earthworms I had given it and saw that there were only a few left.

"How come I was so careless last night that the bait fell off."

Yi Gan silently blamed himself for a while and decided to look around the beach first to see if he could find the earthworm that fell from the fishing hook last night.

Yi Gan felt that the earthworms would most likely be washed back to the shore by the waves, and he would not be able to find them and would get new ones.

Walking along the coastline, Yigan arrived at the hut he had built.

"Huh? What is that?"

On the beach, which should have been as white as snow and empty, there was now a pool of soft stuff.

Yi Gan walked closer and saw a slightly transparent, crystal clear mass that looked a lot like gummy candy.

"This is... a jellyfish!?"

Yigan suddenly became nervous, his heart beating so fast that it seemed like it would jump out of his throat at any time.

It’s not that jellyfish are scary, but if this is really a jellyfish, doesn’t it mean that there are living things in the sea?

"Wait, wait, calm down... Is this a jellyfish? Is it? Is it?"

Yigan was at a loss as to what to do. He was so nervous that he didn't dare to confirm whether it was a jellyfish or not.

It wanted someone to tell it the answer, but there was no one on the beach at the moment.

Yigan suddenly turned around and ran!

It ran out of the sea, ran along the immortal road paved by the wanderer, passed the small temple of Master Zhengguang, and ran to the home of another immortal.

"Mo Ling! Pharmacist Mo! Lady Shi!"

Yigan ran to the house of the couple who gave him the fishing rod.

"Help me... help me."

In front of a quiet house of neither big nor small, Yi Gan knocked on the door and shouted breathlessly.

"What's wrong? Xiao Yigan? Who bullied you?"

The one who opened the door was Shi Ning, a female knight who ascended to heaven through martial arts.

She heard Igan's panicked voice and thought it was bullied by someone so it ran to ask for help.

"No one bullied me, but something appeared in my heart and I don't know what it is."

Igan said.

"What? Something appeared in the heart sea?"

Shi Ning was also surprised.

Heart Sea is the name Yigan gave to that sea.

Yi Gan didn't know why it was called Xinhai.

It only knew that when it found this sea, the name emerged in its heart.

"Is it a living thing or a non-living thing? What does it look like? Describe it."

Mo Ling, who was able to make elixirs with his own body, was also very curious when he heard something appeared in his heart sea, so he ran to the door to ask Yi Gan.

"It doesn't move. It looks like a jellyfish."

Igan said.

"Jellyfish?"

Mo Ling and Shi Ning were surprised.

"It appeared right on the coast, washed up by the waves. Is it a jellyfish from the sea that was washed up by the waves?"

Igan asked.

"I don't know about that. You have to see it in person to know. Honey, I'm going to the heart sea.
