Bodhisattva, please help me in my spiritual practice!

The air of this old place remains as captivating as ever, brimming with the scent of chance.

【Glorious heir, welcome back to…】

The system's scarlet text froze for a moment.

[Due to some temporarily unrepairable system issue, the teleportation point you activated in Joyful Town has been deactivated.]

[Because you only activated the teleportation points at your starting location and Joyful Town, we have to teleport you back to your starting location. We apologize for the inconvenience.]

Due to this system glitch, your starting location has been reset to ensure a smooth gaming experience.

Ao Peng clearly felt that these three system reminders were much more serious, and were completely different from the previous, frustrating system voice.

One is like a gentle, ethereal fairy, while the other is a mischievous little devil who's been holding back her desires.

After three serious reminders, the system text reappeared.

[...Welcome back to your birthplace, you despicable yet lucky heir.]

Three paths have appeared before you.

The path on the left is shrouded in mist.

The path on the right is shrouded in mist.

The middle path remains shrouded in mystery.

So, who's going to be unlucky this time?

Of course, if I were you, I would probably be more merciful, after all, animals' lives matter too!!!

Finally, the system used three exclamation marks.

Ao Peng glanced at the more than two hundred weasel corpses still stored in his temple and suddenly realized that even the system would find it difficult to find so many weasels that had become spirits.

Based on the one I encountered on the Aotai Line.

Ao Peng has a guess:

The weasel and rat spirit that the system finds must be obtained from the real world.

This is the only way to serve as a medium, as a guide for new players, connecting the two different times and spaces: the old land and reality!

The system influences reality, but it has its own limitations and cannot create things out of thin air. In the early stages, this yellow weasel is valuable to the system!

No wonder I killed over two hundred weasels, and suddenly they got the news and stopped appearing. Who leaked the information?

Ao Peng was not surprised that the weasel, with its profound Taoist skills, knew the art of divination.

But this method of divination involves asking "Heaven," and whether "Heaven" will answer, and whether the answer is clear or not, depends on the will of the old earth game.

Weasel and rat spirit are quite valuable in the early stages!

Ao Peng has tentatively deduced this information. In any case, killing these weasels and rats will not significantly improve his own strength, so he can just test it out.

Ao Peng looked at the three fog-shrouded roads, first removing his title of "Nemesis of the Yellow Immortal," and then looked at the road on the left, which corresponded to the Rat's Wedding.

He was prepared to try this path and see if he could achieve the Five Immortals achievement.

Otherwise, if he takes the middle path, and the dog system secretly alerts him that the weasel has leaked information about the Gray Immortal, he won't be able to get his achievements, which would be a huge loss.

Ao Peng first used the ability to freely change Yin and Yang to make his blood and energy slightly more abundant, so that it would be more tempting. Then he confirmed that the "Cause of Unborn" had indeed enveloped his heavenly secrets.

Adjusting his facial expression, with the hazy curiosity and fear of the unknown typical of college students, he slowly stepped into the fog on the left.

The mice's wedding was a lively and festive affair.

Under the withered old locust tree, red silk lanterns hung high, and white paper ingots were stacked on the table.

At the main table, Grey Fairy hosted a grand banquet for his guests, inviting his neighbors and friends to join him.

On the left, Master Huang was wearing a fine human skin with two rounded eyes, already resembling a human in appearance. On the right, the scapegoat wore chains around his ribs, with two living souls hooked to them.

The three fairies naturally toasted and drank, and as they finished their drinks, they all marveled at the wonderful life they were living in.

Grey Fairy laughed, "These days are truly wonderful. It's as if Heaven has opened its eyes and given us lowly creatures a chance to turn our lives around."

Master Huang laughed, "That's right. Our skill in digging tunnels and leading the way is a gift from God. Although we are only guarding the Yangguan Road and cannot truly harm the Yang people, there are still some fools... tsk tsk."

Although the weasel's method of seeking titles cannot actually kill living people in the old game, some fools still managed to have their lives taken by the weasel.

Therefore, it is actually the most dangerous of the three paths.

Hui Xian and the scapegoat looked on with envy, thinking to themselves that the Huang family was truly born at a good time.

So they toasted each other even more enthusiastically.

"Master Huang, fill it up!"

Hui Xian picked up the wine pot and filled Master Huang's cup.

Master Huang took a sip with relish, "We can't have wine without food."

As soon as he finished speaking, the wind chimes outside the courtyard gate suddenly rang, like the sound of a bell for serving dishes.

Upon hearing this, Hui Xian's whiskers twitched, and he flattered, "Master Huang's luck is truly amazing! You just mentioned the dishes, and they've arrived! I'll have someone go and fetch them right away!"

So he threw out four paper figures from his bosom, blew them into the wind, and they transformed into four burly men, their faces pale, holding chains. He then took out a paper horse, blew on it, and the tall horse wore a white flower on its head.

In this barren land, nothing grows. When a living person enters, their soul attaches itself to the incense burner. Although the incense burner cannot eat the soul, the taste of the incense burner is no worse than that of the flesh. The incense burner should be a main dish!

Grey Fairy sent someone to fetch the main course. Master Huang, already slightly tipsy, was enjoying his wine when he began to recount a recent rumor circulating in the underworld about the Huang family.

"I heard from my ancestor that a ruthless human skinner has recently appeared on the streets. We should be careful when we're collecting rewards on the road!"

"Human skin?"

This left Grey Fairy and the scapegoat completely stunned.

This was the first time they had ever heard of such a demon.

"Master Huang, what's the meaning of this 'human skin'?"

Master Huang, who had only heard rumors, cleared his throat and laughed, "My two brothers are unaware of this. This 'human skin' is nine zhang tall, its body is engulfed in karmic fire, it has red eyes and a blue face, sharp teeth and a piercing mouth. It always wears the skin of those foolish college students, and around its neck is a ring of our skulls. Anyone who sees it will surely be killed by it!"

Gray Fairy and the scapegoat, hearing this, became nervous and hurriedly asked, "Is there any way to avoid it?"

Master Huang smiled confidently, "Of course there are ways to avoid it. My Huang family is good at distinguishing scents. Our ancestor used a method to collect the scent of human skin and then taught us to distinguish it. Whenever we smell the scent, we know to stay far away."

"As expected, the Huang family is incredibly powerful!"

"If you smell human skin," Grey Fairy said obsequiously, then his rat-like eyes darted around, "could you let us know if you smell it?"

Old Master Huang took a sip of his wine, waved his hand magnanimously, and said, "We're all neighbors, this is how it should be!"

Grey Fairy immediately filled Master Huang's cup.

Having already become slightly tipsy, Master Huang asked, "Why haven't the dishes been served yet?"

Not wanting to offend Master Huang, Hui Xian was about to go out to urge him on when he heard the voices of those who had come to pick him up returning.

With a series of loud suona horns, Grey Fairy announced with a smile, "Master Huang, the main course is served!"

Before he even saw the person, Old Master Huang's nose twitched. The main dish smelled amazing, the meat smelled incredibly delicious!

Then he took another deep breath, carefully examining and judging the age and characteristics of the meat, so he could show it off later.

Slowly, its slightly tipsy face stiffened.

This main dish doesn't taste right!
