On the banner of the temple gate are three splendid characters: Land God Temple.

That is to say.

This is a land temple dedicated to the earth god.

The couplets pasted on both sides of the front of the main hall:

Soil can produce all things,

The earth can send a thousand blessings.

Sadly, Xun Xie could not read this world’s language, it was similar to Chinese but also very different.

Inside the main hall, it was old and shabby to the naked eye, and there was a thick layer of dust everywhere. There was only a tattered offering table, and it felt like a gust of wind could blow it down.

In front of the offering table, there are three futons, which seem to be woven from wicker.

On the offering table, there are several plates, white porcelain bowls, candlesticks without candles, and an incense burner mixed with rat droppings.

Most of the offerings on the plate are steamed buns, which are moldy and black.

The offerings in the bowl should be peaches, which are rotten and smelly.

Behind the offering table, against the wall, stood a clay sculpture standing with its hands behind its back, looking up at the sky forty degrees, covered with many spider webs.

On the chest of the clay sculpture, I don't know who wrote two lines of graffiti, which are also couplets:

The temple is small and there is no monk sweeping the ground with the wind, and the sky is high with Buddha lighting the lamp with the moon.

Light the lamp with less incense and less candles.

Such a small temple, so dilapidated.

But Xun Xie stretched his head and glanced at it, but he was shocked.

I saw a monster squatting on the futon in front of the offering table. His complexion was as pale as bone, he was only one meter tall, and his head was exaggerated, bigger than his body.

The huge head was pressed against the thin neck, extremely twisted and weird.

There seems to be a human face on the head, full of folds, empty eyes, no eyebrows, rosacea, and a crooked mouth.

Its head was still covered with scabies, densely packed, looking very penetrating.

This ghost's appearance is already very scary and disgusting, but what is even scarier is that its body is translucent.

Xun Xie vaguely remembered some tales of big-headed persons who killed themselves by lifting up their heads and so on.

"Gh-ghost?!"

Xun Xie's heart was awe-inspiring, what the fuck is this chance?

First a man-eating titan-like giant now a fucking ghost!

He didn't even think about it, he turned around and ran.

"Young man, can you see me?" Suddenly, an old and dejected voice came.

Xun Xie's whole body tightened, and he turned his head halfway and slowly turned back.

The monster was looking over, and his eyes fell on Xun Xie's face, seeing Xun Xie turn his head and look at it with focused pupils, it suddenly became excited and said, "You can also hear my voice, can’t you? "

Xun Xie's adam's apple twitched, trying to keep his composure.

This ghost speaks words and should be able to communicate.

Wouldn’t possess him, right?

Or curse him?

Also, it's broad daylight, so ghosts can't run into the sun, right?

That’s basic ghost biology.

Xun Xie took a step back, and stood in the sun which emboldened him, "Who are you, where are you?"

This is the question. And on second thought it was half gibberish, but he had already mounted the horse and there was no taking them back.

The monster was even more excited and continued: "I don't dare to be holy; the little deity is just a local land master, his surname is Hu and Bai."

"Lord land god, you?" Xun Xie blinked; his surprise written all over his face.

Darling, this ghost is the owner of this land temple!

In several media and stories earth gods were a deity and not evil ghosts, he even knew villages with seven temples in his past life but not all of them were land temples.

"This world is really amazing."

Xun Xie was amazed in his heart and immediately thought, if there are earth gods here, then whether the dragons, gods and Buddhas of the gods also...

At this time, Land God took a few steps forward, looked at Xun Xie carefully with his empty eyes, and said with a trembling face: "It's strange, you are obviously only a mortal, how can you see the 'Yin God'?"

How could Xun Xie know what was going on?

Also, what is the Yin God?

He pondered for a while, and said, "Master of the land, a monster ate the whole village yesterday."

Afterward, he stared at the original landlord to see how he reacted. Had he inherited memories from this body he would probably be enraged at this land master for not protecting them. That giant was clearly no earthly being.

Since you are a master of the land, if there are monsters running wild in your territory, you won't be indifferent to it, right?

When the landlord heard this, he sighed, "That's a 'Bodhisattva', alas, the Bodhisattva wants to eat people, but the little god is powerless to stop him!"

"What did you say, Bodhisattva?" Xun Xie was stunned, thinking he heard it wrong, "Bodhisattva, cannibalism?"

"What do Bodhisattvas eat when they don't eat people?" Land God asked, "That’s right, you are just a mortal, how could you possibly know what a Bodhisattva is?"

Xun Xie was speechless, "Then, will the Bodhisattva come back?"

"No, He just passed by this place, he should be 300,000 miles away by now or back ‘above’." The landlord shook his head and sat down slowly, holding a giant baby's head in his hands.

"Young man, what's your name?" asked the land master.

Xun Xie felt strange in his heart. As a land god, would he not know who the residents were on his land?

but…

Judging from the situation, it seems that this land master really doesn't know him.

"My name is Xun Xie." Xun Xie said hesitantly, the language here was similar to Chinese, so his name is fine right? Should be since he called himself Hu Bai.

"Well, young man Xun, you appeared at the right time." The land master nodded, "This little deity was shaken by the roar of the bodhisattva, and his yin spirit was shattered, and he will soon perish."

Another long sigh.

Xun Xie's eyes narrowed slightly, he dared to say that this landlord was dying. How could he survive the roar then? Could it be the land god and bodhisattva were similar beings and its roar was more lethal or was his stone lottery wheel the culprit once again?

Before he could ponder more

"I, Hu Bai, was born a prodigy. I started to practice martial arts at the age of eight, formally entered the martial arts at the age of nine, became a 'teacher' at the age of forty-one, and became a 'walker' at the age of eighty-six. I have lived for over a hundred years and died at the ripe age of 264 in the hands of a foe.”

"After my death, I received the kindness of Master, which not only kept the yin spirit from dispersing, but also helped me to become a land master, presiding over a town, accepting more than 400,000 people to pray with incense, and enjoying boundless blessings."

"I never thought that my luck would not last long. Master also died at the hands of the enemy, and my body and spirit were destroyed. I lost my protection, my temples were destroyed by the wicked, I was driven out of the city, wandered around, traveled to many places, and finally came to this ruined temple to live on."

"I never expected that a Bodhisattva would pass by this place by chance, and with a great roar, I would be seriously injured by the shock."

Speaking of which, Land God looked at Xun Xie, "You must have felt the terror of the Bodhisattva. Just the sound of his breathing made you bleed from your seven orifices. Still, even if it is closer to the divine and spirit, it’s a miracle you still breathe after his roar. You are blessed"

Xun Xie pricked up his ears and listened to the Lord of the Land. It seemed…that the stone wheel was likely to thank here as well. He felt a light shine in his mind before he passed out.

Although he heard a lot of content he couldn’t comprehend, he didn't ask much.

God knows if this dying land master will use any evil methods to save the dog's life, such as seizing the house.

"Xun Xie, the little god's life is about to end." Earth God sighed deeply, "You and I are destined, the little God wants to give you a great fortune."

Xun Xie immediately became vigilant.

The development path of this dialogue seems to be the standard plot of some bad dramas.

Do not jest.

You and I are not relatives, so don't give away such deceptive things as Great Creations, and don't trick me. I don't want to die so fast.

You must think I’m as naïve as my looks and age.

Xun Xie was raised upon many dramas, games, movies, tales, and the like, he wasn’t about to be deceived and tricked into selling himself and helping count the money.

The landlord opened his mouth and vomited.

Gulug!

A cloud of mucus was spat out from the mouth of the land deity.

The landlord stretched out his hand and scratched twice in the mucus, revealing a square seal immediately. Xun Xie became slightly nauseous.

"Xun Xie, can you see this thing?" Earth God asked.

Xun Xie nodded, "A square seal."

Earth God nodded: "This thing is the seal of Earth God, and the person who holds this seal is the God of the land."

With that said, the land master handed over the seal, "Xun Xie, Little God wants you to take over the seal and become a land god."

Xun Xie heard something ludicrous and said in surprise: "The God of the earth, can you be one if you want? Anyone can do it?"

"Naturally not, one must hold the exclusive seal of the land god to become a master of the land. " Land God iterated.

Xun Xie understood.

The Earth God is a priesthood, but this position only recognizes the seal and not the person, whoever holds the seal is the one.

"There are only two ways to become a land.

First, accept the canonization, that's how I became the land.

Second, inherit from the land god to do this you must not only be able to see and touch the seal but hear the ritual words for canonization, I here choose you as the successor ***@ag**dfsegh***. " After speaking some strange words that Xun Xie could hear then oddly couldn’t, forgot then remembered as if the words had existed and then were erased before existing again.

Afterward, a strange light surrounded Xun Xie to his dismay, seeing this landlord nodded in satisfaction. It was truly as he imagined.

Earth God explained carefully, "Now then, generally speaking, only the 'yin god' can see the seal, so only the 'yin god' is qualified to be the God of the earth, but you seem to be born with different eyes, so you are also qualified."

“In the history of this lord's lineage, there have been those extremely rare few who opened the third eye and could see yin spirit but that was at our peak and they would look down on such things like the position of land god, further down there are some talents who master the spiritual aspect of the arts but that only allows you to damage the spirit and not necessarily touch, even when proficient touching the seal isn’t enough, seeing is also important and hearing.”

Xun Xie didn't dare to accept it, so he said cautiously, "Lord Earth, what kind of virtue have I and what abilities make me worthy? Besides, I won't be rewarded without merit."

The Lord of the Earth said the famous saying, "Little God has something to ask for..."
