Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 209 Hazy Golden Shadow

The old patriarch knocked on the table to stop the noise below, and said thoughtfully: "In a few days, there will be many girls gathered at the market. Then you can take your girls to go on blind dates."

"But remember, you were the ones who took the baby there after you heard the news. Do you understand?"

"I understand." The aunts and uncles responded in unison.

If it was a marriage arranged in the past, there would be no problem, but now the Forgotten Village is different from what it used to be. Parents with a little bit of common sense would hope that their daughters would marry into a good family.

And this good family is the thriving Forgotten Township.

Although there are more wolves than meat in this world, there are only so many people in the rural villages and mountain strongholds, and the girls have all married off. What do you want the strong men in the village to do? They can't rely on the five girls all their lives. Besides, population is the foundation of the village.

Therefore, blind dating can only be a voluntary behavior of the villagers.

"That's it. After offering incense tomorrow morning, you will go to the temple guard training ground for morning exercises. Lao Jin and Xiao Mu will guide you then. The meeting is adjourned." The old patriarch waved his hand, stood up and walked out.

"Chief, please don't leave. Tell us what we should pay attention to when we go on blind dates."

"Yes."

"Patriarch, please don't leave."

"Let go. The old man doesn't understand this. You should go find Lao Feng. He knows about this." The old patriarch who was held back hurriedly passed on the blame.

"Let's go find Lao Feng."

"Yes, go find Lao Feng."

"Let's go, let's go." A group of aunts and uncles rushed out of the meeting hall at full speed to look for Yifeng.

The old patriarch breathed a sigh of relief. After he came out of the meeting room, he hurriedly summoned the mechanical wolf and ran towards the village gate.

You can't get entangled with him anymore. Traveling and enjoying the scenery is the right thing to do. You can just push the worries to Yifeng. He is still young and can handle it.

Time passed in the hustle and bustle, and October was approaching in the blink of an eye.

The market was packed with people, mostly young men and women, and it became a large-scale blind date site.

This scene was caused by the uncles and aunts in the Forgotten Township who dragged their younger generations to a blind date.

For this reason, Yibao gave holidays to all the bachelors in the guard team.

Seeing this, the villages and strongholds also went with the flow and turned the serious spirit-testing ceremony into a large-scale blind date event.

Marriage between close relatives is the biggest problem faced by every village and village, so even though they understand that the biggest beneficiary of this blind date is the Forgotten Village, they still accept it.

Liu Taozi looked at the heated blind date scene and said to Yifeng helplessly: "Feng Bo, if my master knew about this kind of spirit-testing ritual, he wouldn't beat me, would he?"

When people become familiar with each other, the name they use will change, so the name Fengbo is a natural one.

"No, no, your master would definitely like to see such a festive spirit-testing ceremony. Let's not pay attention to the details. Spirit-testing is the key point." Yifeng patted Liu Taozi's shoulder and said.

"Speaking of testing spirits, I'm confused. We're almost halfway through the test, and there's not even one person with a mid-level spirit root. If this continues, I don't know how to tell Master."

"Don't worry, there are still half of them, more than 3,000 people, there will be a mid-level spirit..."

"Wow" Yifeng's words were interrupted by a sudden exclamation.

The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw a fire cloud rising from the spiritual detection point not far away.

Seeing this, Liu Taozi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Finally, a mid-level fire-type spiritual root has appeared."

"It's just a mid-level, intermediate spiritual root? But I see it's quite impressive." Yifeng said in surprise.

"Fire-type phenomena are always dazzling, so they look impressive, but in fact they are only of mid-level quality."

"So that's how it is." Yifeng nodded suddenly and asked Liu Tao to go and see which village this young talent came from who had such qualifications.

The entire spirit-testing and blind-matching ceremony lasted for five days before it was over, as teams from rural villages and mountain strongholds arrived one after another.

As time enters October, the market starts early.

Two days later, the teams from each village dispersed and agreed to meet again next month.

Yifeng and Liu Taozi saw off the last team and repeatedly reminded them to protect Yu Jiajia.

Yu Ye patted his chest with a smile on his face and promised that he would definitely ensure the hopes of Yujiazhai.

Yu Jiajia was the biggest gain in this spiritual test. She possessed a high-quality low-level wood spiritual root, so one can imagine the sensation it caused.

Liu Taozi watched the Yujiazhai team go away and said worriedly, "I hope nothing goes wrong."

"What could go wrong?" Yifeng blurted out.

"We're afraid the news will leak out and the good seedlings will be snatched away."

After hearing this, Yi Feng pondered and asked, "Wu Qiang?"

"We are not afraid of armed robbery, as we have identification marks on our bodies that can help us locate ourselves. What we are afraid of is armed robbery."

"People who don't know how to be grateful are ungrateful no matter how talented they are." Yi Feng said this, and scolded with a smile: "Don't play tricks on me, kid. If you were really afraid that Yu Jiajia would be robbed, you would have kept her long ago. Since you are not afraid of being robbed, it is a test of people's hearts."

"Hehe, I knew I couldn't hide it from Feng Bo."

"Tell me what the situation is, so you can be careful."

"There were some problems when we were recruiting disciples last year. A person with high-quality spiritual roots defected to another sect, which had a very bad impact and angered the top leaders. They passed down a message: There is no point in recruiting people with bad morals."

"I see." Yifeng nodded and asked Liu Taozi to go back.

"Finally I'm done with my work. I can go tomorrow... Well, I can't play yet. The kids in the village haven't been tested yet."

"There's no rush. It won't be too late to test it after your master comes out of isolation."

"That's fine, but I don't know when the master will be able to come out."

"It's almost there. The energy fluctuations are getting stronger."

In front of the brightly lit General Temple, Shang Liangshan sat on the steps, looking at Liu Weizi, whose breath was rising steadily not far away. No, to be more precise, he was looking at the hazy golden shadow behind him.

A hazy golden shadow sat cross-legged behind Liu Weizi, two meters tall, sometimes shining with golden light, sometimes restrained, absorbing and exhaling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and condensing itself.

"Could this be the Nascent Soul mentioned in novels? No, no, no, the Nascent Soul seems to be a little man, and it is not condensed outside the body. This hazy golden shadow does look a bit like the Dharma image in novels. Forget it, I won't worry about it. I'll just practice." Shang Liangshan muttered to himself and disappeared at the gate of the General Temple.

Three days ago, when a hazy golden shadow appeared behind Liu Weizi, Shang Liangshan sensed it and immediately ran over to observe it ever since.

I gained a lot during this period, but I can only learn from it because we are on different paths.

It was another morning, and people lined up as usual to worship incense devoutly.

Suddenly, the children screamed, causing the adults to frown and look. They saw a purple cloud flying from the east, which crashed into the rock peak in the blink of an eye and disappeared without a trace.

"Purple air is coming from the east, which means Taoist Liu is about to have a breakthrough. Everyone, please burn incense quietly and don't make any noise." Yifeng's voice came from the Forgotten Temple, suppressing the discussion that was about to arise.

Shang Liangshan, sitting on the steps in front of the General's Temple, was a little surprised by the changes that occurred when he watched the purple air fly into the hazy golden shadow.

Because the misty golden shadow was wearing a pair of big shorts, his body became much more solid and he also grew a pair of hands.
