Chapter 1245: Chapter 1249: Funeral Park
It leaped over those thick crates and jumped in front of a stone pedestal.
On the stone pedestal, there was a floating Ice Leaf, covered by a very special bamboo cage. It was not easy to take it out.
But the Little Jiuwei Dragon was clever. After recognizing it as an Ice Leaf, it used the Samadhi Foxfire around the bamboo cage to melt the ice with its high temperature.
The Ice Leaf was special; it melted slowly, but one could see the leaf turning into drops of water, which flowed out through the gaps in the bamboo cage. The Little Jiuwei Dragon then stuck out its little tongue, licking away the water transformed from the Ice Leaf.
Although it took some time, it successfully obtained this special Ice Leaf!
…
“Housekeeper, housekeeper, how could you let someone put Our God’s lychee fruits into the private library!” The female attendant ran into the house, speaking to the black-bearded housekeeper.
“What lychee fruit? The private library has been sealed and cannot be opened.”
“The lychee fruits were sent from Crane Mountain for brewing lychee wine that requires fresh fruit meat, and the brewing period is precisely twenty days. Our God will want to drink it when he returns,” the female attendant said anxiously.
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“I ordered my people to carry it to the yard! Who knew they’d be so muddled.”
“Alright, alright, I’ll open the door for you.”
“Good, I’ll call someone to help lift it.”
Zhu Minglang followed the female attendant to the Earth Altar Private Library.
The black-bearded housekeeper was very cautious. He unlocked the restrictions and opened the stone door, but his eyes never left Zhu Minglang and the female attendant, and he specifically said: “Don’t touch anything here!”
“It’s there. It’s there, in that crate. Hurry up and move it, don’t let it spoil here, the taste is very important,” said the female attendant.
Zhu Minglang nodded, he walked towards the crate of lychee fruits. While he was checking the crate, he stretched out his palm and surreptitiously retrieved the Little Jiuwei Dragon that was hiding in the shadows back into his Spirit Realm.
He picked up the lychee fruits and left the tribute private library.
The black-bearded housekeeper watched Zhu Minglang and the female attendant the whole time, ensuring they did not disturb anything inside. However, the housekeeper could never imagine that the thief had been inside and was already full-bellied.
The only thing Zhu Minglang came here for was to retrieve the Little Jiuwei Dragon back into the Spirit Realm, which couldn’t be done through the seal and restrictions.
For a Dragon Shepherd to retrieve a dragon pet, there was hardly any energy fluctuation; summoning would have been very obvious. The black-bearded housekeeper’s fixed gaze on Zhu Minglang was useless, as long as Zhu Minglang turned his back so that he would not see his palm’s imprint revealed.
The private library was closed, and the seal was reapplied. The black-bearded housekeeper noticed nothing unusual and let Zhu Minglang and the female attendant leave.
The female attendant had the Servant God’s Seal, but she was completely unaware of the series of actions Zhu Minglang had performed.
Zhu Minglang only needed to tell the female attendant that the lychee fruits were moved in, then he helped carry them out.
“The last spiritual resource acquired, everything is going very smoothly.” Zhu Minglang looked at the Little Jiuwei Dragon, its belly round and plump, and couldn’t help laughing.
It seemed the little fellow had eaten quite a number of other Spirit Fruits.
After digestion, its Cultivation Base will probably rise significantly.
…
Today, like any other day, Zhu Minglang was sweeping the fallen leaves along the lengthy road.
Little Jiuwei was helping by the side, its tail was far more efficient than Zhu Minglang.
At this time, several people dressed in black clothes walked along the path and bumped into Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang was also maintaining his usual low profile; as the Earth God, he could perfectly stay “inconspicuous,” but for some reason, this time, the visitors stared at Zhu Minglang.
“It’s you.” Liu Cuo said.
“Oh, Supervisor Liu…” Zhu Minglang also recognized the person.
“Do you know what repentance is?” Liu Cuo questioned Zhu Minglang.
“Repent for what?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“You’re quite defiant, I had thought of reducing your sentence by a month, but it seems unnecessary now. Young spirit court is a place of outstanding talents and spirit, reflecting well is not a bad thing for someone impulsive like you.” Liu Cuo left with a flick of his sleeve.
“He doesn’t repent, then let him work at the burial ground, it suits him.” One attendant said.
“Good idea, you go stay in the burial ground for a while.” Liu Cuo nodded.
“I don’t care, wherever I do odd jobs is the same.” Zhu Minglang was indifferent.
The burial ground, is essentially a burial park.
Its main job is to bury those dead juvenile spirits in the mountains, a task that is both dirty and tiring.
Zhu Minglang didn’t mind, he arrived at the burial ground, but unexpectedly found that the Drunkard Uncle Garden Keeper who liked to drink was also here.
“How come you were also sent here, weren’t you mainly cleaning the god’s yard?” The Garden Keeper looked at Zhu Minglang in surprise.
“Supervisor Liu Cuo doesn’t like me, so he threw me here, what about you, uncle?” Zhu Minglang feigned ignorance.
“Ah, don’t mention it, drinking brought trouble, drinking brought trouble, from now on, let’s just work well here and not make any more mistakes.” Drunkard Uncle Garden Keeper said, and as he spoke, he didn’t forget to take a big gulp to calm himself.
This person was also optimistic, having alcohol to drink, guarding anywhere was the same.
Zhu Minglang originally had some guilt, but seeing that he wasn’t too pessimistic, he didn’t care anymore.
Some things, who knows if they might be a blessing?
“Manager, get these juvenile spirits processed.” At this moment, a few bull-shaped dragon beasts carried sacks of juvenile spirit corpses and dumped them all into a large wooden trough.
“Why did they die, they don’t seem to be old enough?” Zhu Minglang asked with some confusion.
“Need you ask? Just do your job!” The person who brought the juvenile spirit corpses said unpleasantly.
Zhu Minglang and the Drunkard Uncle Garden Keeper worked together to arrange the dead juvenile spirit corpses and then threw them into a wooden slide.
This slide was like a wooden water channel, quite wide, accommodating even the larger juvenile spirits.
This wooden channel was very long and slid from the high point of the mountain to an unseen place below, finally piling up the bodies at the bottom, as for what the situation was below the mountain, no one knew.
“The path seems to be blocked, go take a look.” Drunkard Uncle Garden Keeper said.
“Okay.”
Zhu Minglang jumped onto the back of the Nine-tailed Dragon, letting it carry him down the mountain.
Along this wooden slide, Zhu Minglang arrived mid-mountain, where it was actually very steep.
Zhu Minglang discovered that the wooden slide actually had many gaps, where the corpses of the juvenile spirits would randomly be thrown into mountain cliffs, ravines, valleys, and forests, then left for nature to decompose them.
