Although the City God Temple is magnificent, it is after all just a temple inside the Miaosifang, and its area is limited. However, the area of the underworld is quite large.
In fact, in addition to the twenty-four administrative offices within the underworld, there are also various prison divisions and the tombs of the dead.
This strange marriage case is extremely rare in the underworld. After the City God made the judgment, the Earth God and Ji Yuan, accompanied by two judges from the underworld, sent the White Deer Girl to Zhou Niansheng's temporary residence.
A Yin house does not mean arranging a residence for you in the underworld. It is determined by the deceased's grave in the world of the living and the objects burned by his family. The size and completeness of the grave with paper people and paper money will affect the deceased's underworld. Moreover, the Yin house connects the grave and the tablets in the home to a certain extent, so that it can enjoy sacrifices from future generations.
At this time, Zhou Niansheng's body had not been buried yet, so naturally there was no burial site, so it was placed in the Yinsi Shangshansi Hall.
When the couple met, the exciting scene attracted many onlookers such as ghost officials and ghost servants. The judge then read out the city god's verdict and finalized the outcome of the matter. It cannot be said that everyone was happy, but at least it was a satisfactory outcome.
When Ji Yuan and the God of Land came out of the underworld, a large white deer that seemed to be sleeping was floating beside them.
Looking towards the east, the sky has already turned white and it is almost dawn. The time spent in the underworld seems like a dream.
"Those who can become ghosts and gods are all people with noble morals. I have worked with the City God of Gyeonggi Prefecture for nearly two hundred years, and this is the first time I have seen this side of him!"
The God of Land and Ji Yuan were walking together on the quietest and darkest streets of Gyeonggi Prefecture before dawn, speaking with inspiration in their mouths.
Ji Yuan also smiled and said:
"Otherwise, why is there the saying 'If one has great virtue, ghosts and gods will admire him'? Isn't it because ghosts and gods value virtue and are also virtuous?"
"Hehehe...Mr. Ji is right."
After this incident, Ji Yuan's relationship with the God of Land became very harmonious, especially during the time in the underworld when the two of them had a very good understanding of each other, and they could be considered to have become friends, and they were no longer unfamiliar with each other when they talked.
As I walked to the land god, I could hear slight noises coming from inside. It must be the priests and servants living in the temple getting ready to get up.
The crowing of roosters can be faintly heard everywhere in the city.
Ji Yuan bowed to the God of Land again to express his gratitude.
"Thank you for your help today, God of Land. I'll also ask God of Land to take care of the white deer's body so that Bai Ruo can return to his body regularly and stabilize it so that it doesn't die."
The God of Land tapped the ground with his rattan stick, and the white deer's body automatically sank into the ground and disappeared, then he returned the gesture to Ji Yuan.
"Mr. Ji, don't worry. I will definitely not cut off your disciple's foundation. A girl like Bai Ruo is destined to achieve enlightenment. It would be interesting for her to be a protector for a while!"
This was something that had been discussed before in the underworld. Ji Yuan couldn't stay in the capital all the time and it was not convenient to carry such a large white deer's body with him. It would be even more inappropriate to release him in the underworld. The most suitable place would be the residence of the God of Land, where he could be looked after by the land god.
In the eyes of the land god, although the fairy deer is Ji Yuan's mount, he is already half a disciple, and what Ji Yuan did for the white deer is really fulfilling the responsibilities of a master, so when talking to Ji Yuan, he calls the white deer his "disciple".
"In that case, Ji Yuan will take his leave first!"
"Goodbye, Mr. Ji. You are welcome to come and chat with me anytime!"
The two said goodbye to each other. Although they did not call each other friends, they had already become friends in reality and were both in a good mood.
Watching Ji Yuan walking away freely with the sword hanging in his hand, the magic sword would occasionally turn on its own as if looking back at him, and the God of Land would also smile.
"Mr. Ji has found a mount, but he still has to walk on his own two feet. It's really interesting that the master is more like a father to this extent. It's also because of your good luck, little deer!"
The last sentence was muttered to the ground where the white deer had just fallen, and then the figure of the God of Land disappeared in front of the land temple.
. . .
Ji Yuan felt that he had done his best in dealing with Bai Lu to this extent without causing any conflict. Becoming friends with the God of Land in Gyeonggi Prefecture was a pleasant surprise.
However, Ji Yuan's real gain was a white piece representing the white deer. It was obviously created in the underworld, a place with heavy yin energy, but it was a white piece at the moment it was created. It was not only related to the relationship between husband and wife, but also due to the white deer itself.
Walking on this avenue called Yongning Street, Ji Yuan’s thoughts drifted to the moment when the chess game became a success.
At that time, he did not give many instructions to the White Deer Girl. When he saw the White Deer Girl and her husband hugging each other, he planned to leave with the Earth God.
But after Ji Yuan and the God of Land had left the underworld, the white pieces in his hand suddenly formed, and through the white pieces, he could vaguely see the White Deer Girl kneeling in the underworld and swearing to the engraved jade tablet in her hand: "I will never forget the Lord's kindness!"
The jade token was lent to her by Ji Yuan. It actually belonged to Lao Long and was a special method of training demons. Ji Yuan borrowed it to study it, but he didn't expect it would come in handy.
Lao Long relied on his own thinking and deliberation to simulate the cultivation methods of the immortal beasts in the immortal palace. Although it was not orthodox, it was very close. Ji Yuan used the newly learned method of conveying the spirit through objects to modify it slightly.
With his eyes fully open, Ji Yuan was able to observe qi very accurately, and he also had three years of experience in chess. It would have been extremely difficult for him to come up with a demon training method from scratch. However, it was not that difficult to refine the details based on the old dragon's rich experience, and to make it fit with the way of the deer girl who had already transformed. It also combined the previous experience of speaking to the dragon girl's heart and a bit of the content in "Records of Zhengde Baogong".
I can't say that it can be more immortal than the authentic training method of immortal beasts in the Immortal Palace, but at least I can say that the progress of Taoism is steady. I will do you a favor and let the white deer girl practice, so that she won't practice her own magic and expose her identity as a fairy deer, which will cause a lot of trouble.
Of course, the magical part of the jade also reflects the expectation of fate, and the hope that the white deer can achieve enlightenment.
But in the underworld, Bai Lu’s understanding was completely different.
Mr. Ji's use of jade to pass on his skills was both an opportunity and a test for her. She hoped she could pass it. She did not dare to hope to become Mr. Ji's true disciple, but was willing to serve him as her master.
Although most of the monsters envy the fate of the immortal beasts, they also have great resistance to this. They believe that the immortal beasts have lost their freedom and become slaves. Although most of them have the mentality of sour grapes, it also represents a mainstream view of the monsters. But Bai Lu would not have such an idea at this moment.
. . .
At this moment in Jizhou, Desheng Prefecture, and the wealthy Wei Mansion, everyone was anxious.
Before daybreak, the servants in the backyard of the Wei Mansion were all in a hurry.
"Boom~~"
Thunder suddenly sounded in the gloomy sky, and several servants who were carrying hot water buckets were frightened and almost fell down.
"Hurry up, the delivery room is waiting for use!"
Urged by the steward, the servant hurriedly carried the bucket and moved forward carefully. When he passed through the backyard porch, he heard shrill cries of pain from the other side.
"Ah... uh..."
"Push harder, ma'am! Push harder!"
"No... I have no strength... ah..."
"Madam! Madam, please try harder..."
The midwife's voice in the delivery room was filled with panic. The men of the Wei family were silent outside. Wei Wuwei paced back and forth with his fists clenched. He could not help but rush into the yard and slapped a tree with his palm, leaving a deep palm print on the tree. Then he went back to the corridor outside and waited anxiously.
The door of the delivery room opened, and a maid with a pale face came out carrying a basin of blood and poured it into the yard, then carried a newly delivered bucket of hot water into the house.
Seeing this basin of bloody water pouring out, Wei Wuwei's face turned even more pale.
There has been no sound of the woman screaming in pain for quite some time...
At this moment, the door of the delivery room opened again, and a midwife who was about fifty or sixty years old came out with a pale face and met Wei Wuwei's anxious eyes.
"Master Wei... Madam has fainted... Do you want to save the adult or the child?"
The midwife asked tremblingly, and Wei Wuwei's eyes widened.
"What did you say!?"
"Wei, Master Wei... please don't make things difficult for me... it will be too late if I don't make a decision..."
Wei Wuwei picked up the midwife with his chubby hands. His face looked like a devil and his roar drowned out the thunder.
"I have to protect both of them. If anything happens to one of them, you'll be buried with him. Did you hear me? I have to protect both of them!"
The midwife was so frightened that she was frozen and speechless.
"Hey! Useless thing, come in with me!"
Wei Wuwei couldn't care less and rushed into the delivery room carrying the midwife.
"Master! You can't enter the delivery room!" "Master!"
Faced with the two guards blocking his way, Wei Wuwei rushed in regardless.
"Get out of my way. Why would you care about the Yin room or not at this moment? I'm going to help my wife with her Qi!"
Wei Wuwei's two elders standing beside him opened their mouths but could not say anything to dissuade him, and let him go into the delivery room.
“Hua La La…”
A quarter of an hour later, heavy rain fell at dawn, and cries of "wa...wa...wa..." were heard from the delivery room.
Wei Wuwei leaned against his wife, his whole body wet and relieved. The midwife who delivered the baby kept bowing towards the door, and even the maid beside him breathed a sigh of relief.
"Congratulations, Master Wei! Congratulations, Master Wei! Your wife has given birth to a boy!"
"People safe is good… "
Wei Wuwei sighed a little. Together with the daughters born to him and his concubines in the past three years, he had a total of 6 daughters. This time, his wife finally gave birth to a boy. But seeing his wife rolling through the gates of hell this time, he felt that it didn't matter whether the baby was a boy or a girl.
