Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 44
City God Temple.

Two figures, one fat and one thin, suddenly appeared in the depths of God's Domain, and suddenly appeared at the place where Yang Jiao was handling official duties.

At this time, Yang Jiao looked up at the two uninvited guests in front of him, got up calmly, first greeted the panicked ghost messengers, then walked slowly to the big golden crow and Marshal Tianpeng, and saluted:
"To pay homage to the two High Gods, what is the purpose of coming to the small temple?"

Da Jinwu and Marshal Tianpeng looked at the young man in front of him who exuded a heart like a bright moon and a warm jade temperament.

There was a hint of surprise in my heart, I didn't expect the city god here to have such a radiant and stunning demeanor.

At this time, they didn't even realize it, their facial expressions softened by three points.

"This hall is the eldest prince of Tianting, and this is Marshal Tianpeng. This time I am here on official business, and I want to ask you something."

The Great Golden Crow said lightly.

"I have seen His Highness, Marshal, what is it?"

Yang Jiao asked warmly.

"In the past few days, has there been any news from the Yang residence? Did the brothers and sisters of the Yang family come back to life? Where are they now?"

Da Jinwu stared at Yang Jiaodao with piercing eyes.

Hearing this, Yang Jiao knew that Yang Jian and Yang Chan would not be able to hide the fact that Yang Jian and Yang Chan had come back to life no matter what. After all, they were desperately looking for coffins in Guanjiangkou to bury their father and brother.

So, after thinking for a while, I asked slowly:

"Is it the Yang family that was destroyed before?"

"Not bad." The Great Golden Crow said without changing his expression.

"Before, there was a pair of brother and sister who were begging everywhere in Guanjiangkou to buy a coffin for the funeral of their father and brother. Unfortunately, all the people avoided it. In the end..."

Yang Jiao said that this is self-evident, and continued:
"Although I've only been a city god for a short time, I don't know much about Guanjiangkou, but I think the brothers and sisters should be the Yang family brothers and sisters."

"A couple? Shouldn't they be three siblings?"

Marshal Canopy couldn't help asking.

"It is indeed a pair of brothers and sisters. As for whether there is another one, it is not clear, but they actually set up two tombstones in Guanjiangkou, namely Yang Tianyou and Yang Jiao."

Yang Jiao explained in detail.

"Then where are the brothers and sisters of the Yang family now?" Da Jinwu asked immediately.

"I only occasionally heard about the Yang family's affairs from the conversations of my subordinates. I really don't know the specifics. After all, I have only been the City God for more than a month."

Yang Jiao said shyly with a little embarrassment.

"City God for more than a month! How did you become this?"

Marshal Tianpeng looked at Yang Jiao and asked curiously.

"More than two months ago, I came to Guanjiang Estuary and found that there were evil spirits doing harm to people, so I killed the evil spirits. Later, I was afraid that there would be evil spirits coming out to harm people, so I gave some talismans to the people here."

"In the next month, in order not to let the monsters continue to come out to hurt people and kill people, all the evil spirits in Guanjiangkou will be eliminated."

"But I didn't expect that one day, a divine talisman descended from the sky and named me the City God, and I just sat in the position of Guanjiangkou City God in a daze."

Yang Jiao said with a puzzled look on his face.

After the words fell, a golden light flashed in the eyes of the big golden crow, and he said in a daze:

"It turned out to be a natural god, no wonder it was so easily favored by Shinto."

"A natural god?!"

Marshal Tianpeng was amazed, this is not the ancient times, since the human race multiplied and prospered, let alone the unreachable existence of innate gods.

Just because of the occasional spirituality between heaven and earth, the number of spirits who have turned into human forms is also decreasing. I didn't expect to meet them in Guanjiangkou.

We must know that the natural gods are not only born with a relationship with Shinto, but also do not need to be restricted by incense like incense gods.

Incense is just a dispensable existence for the innate gods and spirits. If there is any, it can speed up the cultivation speed, and if it is not, it will not hinder the cultivation.

Generally speaking, the natural gods may have different personalities, but they will regard the heaven and earth that gave birth to them as their parents, so that they will spontaneously maintain the Three Realms.

Therefore, Shinto is especially favored for the natural gods. After all, gods are gods, gods are in front of gods, and the most important thing for gods is their own responsibility to the three realms.

Marshal Tianpeng and Da Jinwu became more friendly after knowing Yang Jiao's identity.

The aptitude of the natural gods has always been excellent, especially the natural gods who have stepped into the right track of the divine way, and they can be called extraordinary talents.

Therefore, in their view, Yang Jiao's current position as City God is just a start.

Immediately, even the Great Golden Crow couldn't help but speak:
"I don't know what the name of the City God is?"

"I like some flowers and plants so much that I call myself Hua Man Lou."

Yang Jiao introduced himself with a slightly childish demeanor and a little shyness.

"When the heart is full of flowers, the building is also full, and the building is full of flowers!"

"That's a good name!"

Marshal Tianpeng let out a scream, then walked up to Yang Jiao carelessly, and patted him on the shoulder as if he had come here.

"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to me. Although I don't have supernatural powers and the ability to cross the three realms, I still have a bit of a thin face in the heavenly court."

"Thank you Marshal!"

Yang Jiao cupped his hands and thanked him sincerely, then, as if thinking of something, he asked:

"Dare to ask Marshal, after I become the city god, can I go out temporarily, for example, to learn art from a teacher?"

Then he added with a serious expression:
"I will definitely not delay the duty of the City God."

Immediately, Marshal Tianpeng was at a loss for words. It stands to reason that after becoming an immortal, he should not leave his post without authorization, but just now he said in a big way that he came to him when he encountered difficulties.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, he was slapped in the face, where should he put the face of Marshal Canopy.

Just when he was about to speak, Da Jinwu suddenly said:
"Why do you want to learn from a teacher?"

"It's just seeing that there are so many monsters and ghosts in the Guanjiangkou area, killing the people at will, and I feel compassion."

"So, I thought that maybe if my ability is higher, I can protect more people, and then there will be fewer people in the world who died in vain."

When Yang Jiao said this, he couldn't help but sighed emotionally:

"Before I took human form, I often heard the sound of snowflakes falling on the roof."

"I often feel the wonderful vitality of the buds slowly opening in the spring breeze."

"Also, in the autumn wind, there is often the fragrance of leaves from the distant mountains."

"So in my opinion, among the heavens and the earth, only life is the most precious and the most worth living up to."

When the two heard this, their expressions were a little moved, and they couldn't help but think, sure enough, it's not without reason that Shinto is close to the natural gods.

This heartfelt love for all living beings in the three realms is not comparable to those who practice immortality and become gods.

Marshal Tianpeng saw the pensive expression of the Great Golden Crow, and immediately knew that he was also hesitating, so he chuckled and said:
"There are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. As long as you don't delay your official duties, no one can blame you."

After finishing speaking, Marshal Tianpeng glanced at the Great Golden Crow, and saw that he was silent, so he understood that this was the tacit consent.

Having worked together in the Heavenly Court for so long, he knew that as long as he didn't violate the sacred decree of the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother of the Heavenly Court, and other things, the Great Golden Crow would not care too much if he used the laws of heaven a little flexibly.

"Then thank you Marshal for your suggestion."

Yang Jiao showed joy and said very gratefully.
