Chapter 35: The Land Lord's Show of Good Will
As soon as I finished speaking, the Taoist priest's gaze fell on me.
Even the God of Land is the same.
The way the Taoist priest looked at me was very clear, as if he was looking at an idiot. This look made me feel a little uneasy.
Even the look in the God of Land's eyes seemed a bit like the look he gave to a mentally retarded person.
However, I am quite determined about this matter. After all, I don’t want to die yet, and I have too many concerns in the world of the living.
Just when we were all in a trance, the Earth God suddenly seemed to become a little excited and said, "Master, since this young man doesn't want to be a ghost messenger, I absolutely cannot force him. Master, you can't blame me for this."
I looked at the God of Land in confusion. I felt that his attitude was like he had dropped a hot potato on me. I was extremely excited.
The Taoist priest coughed dryly, and his eyes began to show a hint of contempt.
"Chen Yang, there are only two choices left for you now."
The Taoist priest ignored the God of Land, but the God of Land did not dare to interrupt him.
I paused and asked the priest, "What choice?"
The Taoist priest said to me right away: "It's very simple. One is that you just wait to die, and the other is that you become a ghost messenger."
The Taoist priest's words were concise and to the point.
I quickly went over what the Taoist priest said in my mind, and I soon made a choice. My choice was also very simple, which was to live.
I said what I was thinking, I just want to live in the world.
The God of Land suddenly couldn't help but sneered and said, "Young man, you are thinking too well. You are like this, neither human nor ghost. Do you still want to live in the world? You are dreaming. How can this be possible?"
The God of Land’s attitude towards me was a little bad, even a little cold.
In fact, I know myself that what I am proposing now basically belongs to the third option, and I don’t know whether the Taoist priest will agree to give me a chance.
The Taoist priest did not speak immediately.
The land god continued to seize the opportunity and said: "Young man, your soul is not complete now. After you die, even if you want to reincarnate in the underworld, it will be difficult. How dare you have so many requests."
Just when I was about to say something, the Taoist priest suddenly said, "Chen Yang, if you choose this, then you only have one choice left, which is to be a ghost messenger."
When this sentence came out, not only I, but even the God of Land became extremely confused, and it could even be said that he was still in shock.
After coming back to his senses, the God of Land immediately said, "Master, are you kidding? If this guy wants to be a ghost messenger, he must leave the world of the living."
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
The Taoist priest's words were extremely cold.
After hearing this, the God of Land immediately shut his mouth and dared not say another word.
"Chen Yang, your current situation is very bad. If you want to live well, you can only be a ghost messenger, otherwise you will definitely die."
The Taoist priest looked very serious. Looking at his expression, I knew that he was definitely not joking with me.
I was also a little unsure, because I knew my situation.
If I want the Taoist priest to find my lost soul back, it is definitely not an easy task. After thinking about it, I said to the Taoist priest, "Master, can I only survive in the world of the living if I become a ghost messenger?"
I don’t know why, but when I asked this question, I felt a little embarrassed and nervous.
I stared at the Taoist priest, and he nodded without any delay.
"Okay, I'll take it."
I answered directly without any more nonsense.
The voice of the God of Land suddenly rang out at this moment: "Master, aren't you making things difficult for me? If he is a ghost messenger, how can he be a ghost messenger in the world of the living? This won't do..."
The God of Land seemed very unhappy and obviously unwilling.
"I'll tell you again..."
"Master, you also know the rules of the underworld. If I do as you tell me, it will disrupt the rules of the underworld. The underworld will definitely not let me go."
The God of Land looked embarrassed. The Taoist priest kept his eyes on his face. He didn't say a word the whole time, just looked at him. As the God of Land was talking, he might have sensed something was wrong and suddenly closed his mouth.
"Whether you agree or not, it's your choice."
After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he turned around and left. I was stunned to see him leave so decisively.
I walked behind the Taoist priest.
After only a few steps, the God of Land quickly caught up with him. When he came to the Taoist priest, he said with a sad face, "Master, you want me to make a mistake . I really don't dare to..."
I was secretly surprised. The reason why the God of Land chased after me to explain was obviously because he was worried that the Taoist priest would be angry.
This also shows to some extent how powerful the Taoist priest is.
The Taoist priest listened to the explanation of the land god but ignored it and continued walking forward.
The God of Land became anxious when he saw that the Taoist priest didn't listen to his explanation. I basically couldn't say anything now, so the Taoist priest could only walk forward and I followed behind.
When the God of Land fell behind for some distance, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Master, I promise you."
When the Taoist priest heard this, a smile appeared on his lips. This smile made him look even more handsome.
However, the smile disappeared quickly as it came. The Taoist priest clearly looked like he was sure of victory and had a firm grasp on the matter.
Although the God of Land looked reluctant, he had already agreed to this matter and could only accept his fate.
The god of land looked at me and said in an uncomfortable voice: "Boy, come with me."
I heard his voice and said, "Okay."
I followed the God of Land and the Taoist priest didn't say anything. After walking a few steps, I saw the God of Land stretch out his hand and pull me down. With just this pull, my soul immediately came out of my body.
This feeling is somewhat mysterious and indescribable.
And at this moment, I felt my soul coming out of my body, but it was an incomplete soul, which made me look incomplete. My soul was much more transparent than other people's souls.
He took me into the land temple, and I originally thought I had to go in with my head down.
But I didn't expect that as soon as I entered, another space appeared inside. It really proved the saying that there is a different world inside.
There is a lot of space inside, just like a government office.
My heart was moved and I was surprised when I saw this. I didn't expect that the place where the God of Land lived was so spacious.
Maybe it was out of curiosity that the God of Land saw everything clearly. He suddenly said to me, "Looking at your expression, I know you have never seen the world. I feel ashamed that you are serving me like this."
