"I know that you want to follow me, but I don't have idle people, so I found a job for you."
Qiu Ping reached out and patted the Moon-falling Leopard on the head and said.
"Um?"
Moonfall Leopard raised his head, looked at Qiu Ping, and then looked at an old man in front of Qiu Ping who was carrying a turtle shell on his back.
The aura on the old man's body was no more than a first-time [Yuan Shen], and he could kill a dozen of them with one claw.
"Are you willing to join my divine way?"
Although the old man was standing, he was not much taller than the lying leopard's head, almost at the same level as the other's head.
A glimmer of light flashed in Moonfall Leopard's eyes. As he expected, Shinto was indeed going to win over him. After all, he is a member of the Moon-falling Leopard clan that ranks at the forefront of the [Holy Star], and is much nobler than the bloodline of the demon clan in the outside world.
Shinto wants even those ordinary things that are stinky fish and rotten shrimps, so there is no reason why they would let a high-level demon clan like themselves go.
"It's okay to join Shinto, but I have a request. If I want to quit in the future, you are not allowed to stop me."
Although he covets the authority of Shinto in his heart, his true roots are still in the Holy Star.
"This is natural. Our Shinto people have always been free to come and go. As long as you write a letter of resignation and hand over the work, you can leave freely."
The old man was very talkative and always had a gentle smile on his face.
"Okay, I'll join your Shinto."
Falling Moon Leopard was very satisfied. He had heard about the freedom of coming and going in the Shinto before, otherwise many sects would not allow their disciples to join the Shinto.
He was just confirming it again now.
"From today onwards, I will seal the Moon-falling Leopard... Um, what's your name?"
The old man suddenly remembered that he still didn't know the name of this leopard head.
"Chitu."
After the Moon-falling Leopard was silent for a while, he slowly uttered two words.
His name is not a secret in the starry sky, there is no point in hiding it or giving a false name.
"Okay, okay, today I have appointed the Red Picture of the Falling Moon Leopard as the third-class Lake Patrol God of the [Yanhu Soldiers and Horses Division]. He is responsible for inspections, anti-theft, and curfew matters."
Then the old man waved his hand behind him, and a ray of light separated from the lake and landed on the top of the Moon-falling Leopard.
Moonfall Leopard was startled, and he was a little worried about being cast some spell.
That ray of light turned into a talisman out of thin air, covering his forehead, leaving a square trace, and then disappeared.
There are two more words on his head.
It's just that Moonfall Leopard can't read, so he doesn't know what's written on it.
However, he heard that there was a word "third class" in the name. Shinto was based on grade. What was the relationship between the third grade and the third grade? With his genius as a member of the Saint Star Falling Moon Leopard clan, it wouldn't be too much to be granted a third-level title.
"Okay, from today on, you will follow your boss and work hard to serve Shinto."
Seeing the end of the edict, Qiu Ping also had a smile on his face.
Although this Moonfall Leopard is a powerful force with good strength, Qiu Ping has no shortage of thugs at all. Who in the world dares to provoke a Shinto person?
He actually thought about arranging this leopard head to his own [Dinghai area].
But there is already a 25-year-old in Dinghai area, and now there is another 25-year-old. Does that mean his blood pressure is not high enough?
However, the little shrew had complained to him before, saying that there was a shortage of people in Yanhu Lake, so he sent him here.
He winked at Gu Xiaowan, and Gu Xiaowan immediately understood and removed the [Beast Taming Ring] from the Moon-falling Leopard's neck.
Although the [Beast Control Ring] can suppress the Moon-falling Leopard's ferocity, it cannot control the opponent's thinking. In other words, if this leopard-headed guy just follows me around and does nothing, I can't do anything to him.
After all, this is not as effective as the tightening curse.
Moonfall Leopard yawned and nodded lazily at the old man, barely saying hello.
Although this old man is not very powerful, he is still his superior. In the future, he will be involved in Shinto, so he can give the other party some face.
"You bastard, where are you looking? Your boss is me!"
A high-pitched voice came from beside the old man, and Moonfall Leopard frowned. What the hell is this? He has such a bad mouth.
If anyone in the Holy Star dared to talk to him like this, he would have slapped him to death.
As the old man moved aside, he discovered that there was a mouse standing on the ground.
But this mouse is too small, only half the size of an ordinary mouse. It has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, but it has a loud voice.
"What are you looking at? I am the general of Yanhu Army and Horses, and I will be your superior from now on."
The little mouse jumped up, landed directly on the head of the Moon-falling Leopard, and said proudly.
As expected of Lord Tiju, I just told him last time that none of my men could fight, but in the blink of an eye such a big leopard was sent to him.
"you?"
"What's going on? Why is this mouse's realm only ancestral orifice? Not even a holy fetus?"
He pointed at the little mouse with some questions.
Before Qiu Ping could speak, the little mouse jumped up.
"You are the mouse, your whole family is a mouse! I am a shrew, shrew, do you know? A natural space alien! Where did you find a native leopard!"
The little shrew was poked in the foot and hurt. What he hates most in his life is people commenting on his height and saying he looks like a mouse.
Leopard Head sneered, what kind of inborn space alien species is that it has a very subtle space origin in its blood, and only knows how to use it, but does not know how to temper and strengthen it, and the future of its life will be like this.
Only by joining the [Holy Star Lineage] and being able to use the [Holy Star] to completely tap out the power of blood can one barely be called a heterogeneous species.
"If it's your first offense, I won't argue with you."
The moon-falling leopard waved his hand lazily, and was about to slap the little shrew away, but the moment his paws were about to touch the opponent, his heart twitched suddenly as if someone had squeezed it hard.
He groaned all his life, the blood in his body burst out, and he stood up directly, his muscles all tense.
The mark on his brow glowed with golden light, and a terrifying force suppressed his body.
"In Shinto, beating a superior is a taboo, so don't be a fool."
The old man's expression changed and he quickly went up to scold him.
Qiu Ping, who was on the side, was secretly glad that he had already seen through the true nature of this young man, otherwise he would be so angry every day if he kept such a thug so generously.
This kind of hard work should be left to the little shrew to worry about.
Moonfall Leopard took a deep breath to suppress the murderous intention in his heart, and the brand on his head slowly dissipated.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
This little mouse has low strength, but his status is higher than his third rank. Even such unknown aliens can reach high positions. As long as he manages patiently, he will definitely be able to reach the first rank in the future.
When the time comes... hum.
This day won't last long.
…
"Little Loach, your Shinto is too generous. The Moon-falling Leopard just came over and was granted a rank of third...third rank? Weren't you called third rank before?"
Gu Xiaowan was born in the Starry Sky Sect and had a lot of dealings with the Immortal Cultivation Sect, but he was not clear about the official positions within the Shinto system.
"What?"
This actually stopped the little loach from asking, third grade? The Lord of Yan Lake is only from the fifth level, and I am only from the sixth level. How can I be qualified to become a third-level great god?
If I had the resources, why not ban myself first?
However, Qiu Ping quickly realized that the other party was talking about the leopard-headed [Third-class Lake Patrolling God].
"Oh, what are you talking about? [Third-class Lake Patrolling God] is a temporary establishment and does not fit into the system. If we want to talk about grades, they are probably of no quality."
Qiu Ping scratched his head and explained to Gu Xiaowan.
"It's very difficult to get into the establishment. Last year our Shinto introduced new regulations. All those who enter the Shinto must take exams." Speaking of this, Little Loach felt a little lucky and a little happy.
He was recruited into Shinto the year before last, and there were no such regulations at that time.
However, with the opening of the [Source Vein], the concentration of spiritual essence in the human world continues to increase, and many beasts have been blessed and developed spiritual intelligence. However, the backup source of Shinto has greatly increased.
Precisely because there are so many people, everyone is trying to find an iron rice bowl that guarantees harvest despite droughts and floods, which naturally leads to the establishment of scarce resources.
The most unethical thing is that the little loach enjoys the benefits himself, but in turn wants to smash other people's bowls. This guy even shamelessly proposed to open a school in Shinto. All monsters who want to enter Shinto must first learn cultural knowledge.
Those with insufficient educational level will not be admitted.
"Although I have made some small achievements in Shinto, I have always been selfless, never bend the law for personal gain, and have always been honest and upright. I can't go through the back door or directly embroider the leopard head."
"He will start as a temporary worker and learn cultural knowledge well. When he passes the assessment one day, he will be awarded a formal title."
"It's also for his own good."
Little Loach spoke righteously, almost describing himself as Qiu Qingtian.
But Gu Xiaowan listened with great interest. No wonder Shinto has become the largest force in the world. Little Loach, who is not even an immortal, has such an awareness.
In comparison, the disciples of their Wuji Star Palace only know how to compete with each other for resources all day long. This pattern is much worse.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about business during the break. I'll take you to the market in Changning County. It's fun there. It would be best if you came during the Chinese New Year. There is also the Youshen Competition. I'm There is also a prize for the leader of this year’s Youshen Tournament.”
When it comes to these things, the little loach's mouth is like a clockwork, and it can't stop no matter what.
Gu Xiaowan was even more fascinated. The human world was really interesting. It was much more fun than the deserted Wuji Star Palace.
…
Qiu Ping led Gu Xiaowan around Yin City in Changning County for a whole day.
The Yin City exists based on the City God's Blessed Land, and its work and rest time is opposite to that of the Yang World. When the human world falls into a deep sleep, it is the busiest time in Yin City.
The gods will not come out to set up stalls. Most of the vendors in the Yin Market are monsters with some spiritual skills, or ghosts who have not yet entered reincarnation. In order to earn some incense money and practice, they take root in the Yin Market.
There are all kinds of strange things for sale.
Many of them imitate the food of human vendors, such as the tree demon who sells candied haws. The fruit of the candied haws is grown on his own body, and the candy is bought from the Queen Bee Candy Shop next door.
There is also the fungus demon who likes to make steamed buns. He can produce a bunch of mushrooms every day, and he uses them to make steamed buns. Even the little loaches like to eat the steaming hot and fragrant vegetarian buns.
By the way, the flour he used was bought from the grain and oil shop at the end of the street.
The owner of the grain and oil store was a rat spirit. He opened up dozens of acres of land in the mountains and hired a bunch of rabbit monsters to help him cultivate the land, cut wheat and grind flour. The business was quite successful.
These are just regular businesses, and there are some more special ones.
For example, the old turtle demon who tells fortunes may not necessarily be accurate in his predictions, but he is a good talker and can usually make people smile, and everyone is willing to pay money to listen to what he says.
There is also the wolf demon who specializes in helping people find things. If someone loses something, he can basically find it back.
Of course, the reward he wants is also high.
As for the hook fences set up by the foxes and pheasants, the little loach expressed a critical attitude. There were people coming and going on the street, including children. How could they just solicit customers on the street?
I have to go back and talk to the City God, saying that this kind of improper place must be regulated.
"so good."
Gu Xiaowan held a bag of steamed buns in her left hand, grabbed three bunches of candied haws in her right hand, and chewed some unfinished fragrant pears in her mouth.
The pears are all picked by a pear tree demon. They are absolutely fresh and no preservatives are added.
Although its effectiveness for practice is not as good as those treasures of heaven and earth, and it can even be said that it has almost no auxiliary effect on practice, it tastes really good.
Not only is it crispy and sweet, it also has a hint of wine flavor, which is refreshing and appetizing, and makes people feel better after eating it.
Gu Xiaowan ate happily, and with a wave of his hand, he bought all the pears on the pear tree monster's head, making the little monster burst with joy. Perhaps because he was in a good mood, the pears he produced tasted a little sweeter.
"Brother and sister, come and buy some milk. It's very fresh."
Little Loach led Gu Xiaowan to eat and drink, but was suddenly blocked by a black and strong aunt.
This aunt has not completely transformed, her legs still look like cow hooves, her ears are slender, her nose is huge and she wears a ring.
Gu Xiaowan looked at the opponent's majestic and shocking chest, and then compared it with his own xiaolongbao, feeling a little inferior in his heart.
As if to show off her products, Aunt Heiniu even shook her chest.
"No, no, no, no, we...we don't need to drink milk. I've been weaned a long time ago."
Gu Xiaowan was so embarrassed that he ran away.
"You can try it without buying it."
There were still sounds coming from behind her, which only frightened her to pull the little loach and run faster.
But the little loach has long been used to this kind of thing, because many monsters transform alone and do not have the shame of humans. This kind of behavior of selling milk is just like the pear tree monster selling pears. There is no difference.
It's all about self-reliance. The right way is to be able to exchange for incense and money.
"It's... it really scares me to death. How could she be... so big."
Gu Xiaowan's face was still a little red. Although she was usually carefree, she was still a girl.
