Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

However, judging from his age, Chen Ye should be in school right now.

Only humans who are eighteen years of age or older and are considered adults will be assigned work by the Heavenly Dao of this world, based on their own learning and the talents they possess.

This method of allocating work is called the interaction between Heaven and humanity.

Of course.

Besides the jobs assigned by heaven, you can also find jobs yourself. You just need to go to a Taoist temple, pray to the gods, write down the job you wish for, hang it on the old locust tree, pray for the gods to bless your job, and burn incense.

After you've applied the fragrance, head to your workplace to register.

In this way, the power of protection will naturally flow to the new job!

If you are changing jobs or switching careers, you should follow similar steps.

Therefore, Chen Ye guessed that "jobs" in this world might be like "land deeds," providing a kind of protection from a higher level, just like that big eyeball... no, even a bit higher.

"I want to investigate some factories," Chen Ye quickly began to fabricate. "I'm a student working in the Health Administration Bureau, and I want to conduct an internship to investigate the sanitation environment here."

"health?"

Upon hearing those two words, the group of human-shaped balloons paused for a moment, then shook their heads: "There's absolutely no hygiene here. The environment is terrible. Even human-shaped balloons might not be able to stay here, let alone you. If you have nothing else to do, then leave now and stop fooling around here."

“In that case, I must investigate even more!” Chen Ye said solemnly. “These factories are so large that the entire city is probably waiting to be supplied with their products. If any problems arise, wouldn’t that endanger the whole of human society?”

Upon hearing Chen Ye's words, one of the human-shaped balloons nodded in agreement, saying, "Your judgment is correct, but you can't change the situation here. You should leave."

After saying that, he sighed and said, "My name is Sean, and I work for a pesticide production company. Do you see the flowers and plants here? They've all been poisoned. They've lost control of the correct pesticide application methods, and the equipment inside is leaking!"

"Where is this bureau's production site? Take me there," Chen Ye said firmly.

“That place is practically hell!” Sean frowned. “You really want to go?”

“Of course, I came here to solve these problems.” Chen Ye’s gaze was resolute, as if flames reflected in his pupils, capable of burying all these evils!

"Okay... alright... I'll take you to see it. Once you get there, if you encounter a group of balloons with human heads surrounding you, just hide behind me. After all, I've been a long-time employee here... The music you played just now was really nice. You could become a musician or something and have a bright future. Why come to this place to die?"

Sean walked ahead, grumbling and nagging, leading the way for Chen Ye.

The group of balloons with their heads on them looked at each other and followed. After all, having more people meant they could help each other out... The balloons with their heads on them followed the same rule.

After listening to Chen Ye's music, these guys felt comfortable and relaxed. All the bad habits they had accumulated over the years were relieved a lot because of this heavenly music. They realized that Chen Ye's identity was not so simple and wondered what his purpose was in coming here.

Surrounded by several human-shaped balloons, Chen Ye entered a food factory.

Just then, Chen Ye suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body.

The 'hunger' in the vicinity seemed to grow stronger and stronger!

Chen Ye frowned slightly and picked up the peach wood sword from his back.

This unusual feeling was instantly relieved and suppressed.

It seemed to sense the power of the peach wood sword...

The group of people with their heads on balloons looked at Chen Ye with strange expressions, and then quickly led the way.

They then realized that Chen Ye's identity was very likely that of a celestial being!
Coming here might solve many problems!

at this time.

Chen Ye looked up and saw the sky above him, as if a gaze was watching him.

That gaze, devoid of sorrow or joy, reappeared once more at the far end of the clouds.

"Is it the Obscure Angel?"

Chen Ye immediately sensed this special intention.

Upon entering the factory, a musty smell wafts through the air.

Chen Ye frowned and looked at the trash can on the other side.

The trash can contained a large amount of expired food.

Most of these foods were already moldy.

however.

Nearby, several balloon figures dressed in employee uniforms were rummaging through the trash cans for food.

Chen Ye walked over, frowned, and asked, "Don't you think these foods are completely inedible?"

The balloons with human heads turned around, revealing fierce expressions, as if they wanted Chen Ye to get lost and stop meddling in other people's business.

But just as they turned their heads, Chen Ye drew his peach wood sword and held it protectively in front of him.

The peach wood sword emitted a radiant light of true yang, covering the several human-head balloons.

Sizzle! ! !
With a sizzling sound, the balloon heads suddenly showed signs of pain, as if something inside them was burning.

After a moment, black blood began to gush from the bodies of these human-headed balloons!

This black blood, carrying extremely disgusting and viscous filth, was expelled from the body by the human balloon!

however,
After expelling all the foul odors, the human-shaped balloons returned to normal, their eyes filled with shock as they looked at Chen Ye.

They immediately felt much better!
After all, eating these foods long-term will definitely cause great harm to the body!

"Celestial being, may I ask why you have come here?" Almost every human-shaped balloon you encounter will ask this question.

"Heaven?"

Sean couldn't help but glance at Chen Ye again. When his gaze fell on Chen Ye's peach wood sword, he felt a powerful threat emanating from the sword and his mind trembled.

This sword can actually kill human heads and balloons!

Many people who are considered "human balloons" (a derogatory term for debtors) become "debt defaulters" because living is painful, they can't die, they are filled with despair, and they have to endure this unbearable suffering.

But Chen Ye's peach wood sword, and the special music it played...

It seems to really solve the pain on the human head balloon!
It was just a fleeting moment...

After coming into contact with the properties of the peach wood sword, the human balloon felt that much of the toxicity accumulated in its body had been expelled, and the entire "balloon" became much lighter!
"I can fly now!" The human-shaped balloon let out a joyful laugh.

He flew up in a circle, then excitedly told his companions, "I can really fly now!"

"We can all do it now."

The remaining balloons paused for a moment, then gathered around Chen Ye and spun around him.

The peach wood sword automatically unleashed a divine sword aura, transforming into a long rainbow that pierced through...

The human-headed balloons swept away by the sword energy had a great poison forced out of their bodies. As a result, their heads became less heavy and gradually grew larger.

Some of the smaller human-shaped balloons, after expelling the toxic gases from their bodies, began to expand at a visible rate, growing into balloons the size of basketballs.

If it's as big as three basketballs, it can fly!

after all.

The total mass of the head will not change, but if the volume increases, it will become extremely light, and eventually it may even be able to fly.

Sean explained, "Most of the balloons with human heads in this place can't fly. They can only follow the factory's rules and can only get medicine from the pharmacy after they finish their daily work."

"medicine?"

Chen Ye frowned and couldn't help but ask another question.

“That’s right,” Sean sighed. “In fact, the people working as human balloons here don’t receive wages. They only receive a special prescription and rely on taking the medicine to alleviate their pain!”

"Because the human head balloons sent here have all lost their ability to fly, the only jobs they can do are things like food packaging and food production."

“Every day, we have to endure all kinds of exploitation. The factory can produce a lot of fast food, but the factory workers can hardly eat it. Only a very few managers can eat it.”

"Those managers are usually quite large in size."

"I'm also one of the managers here. Although I know that this method is very bad for most of the 'human balloons' (a term used to describe people who are born as "human balloons"), they can only survive on expired and spoiled food for the rest of their lives... In fact, the food they eat is all yin in nature, and they can never be reborn as yang!"

"But there's no other way. In order to take medicine... only medicine can relieve the pain, so most of the people in the balloon don't have much choice."

Chen Ye nodded.

Based on what Sean said, Chen Ye roughly understood what was going on with these factories.

"It's not hunger, it's the stench of decay!"

Chen Ye smelled the stench nearby and frowned.

The human head balloons here actually smell terrible.

Because they eat these rotten foods year after year, their bodies have accumulated an unknown amount of terrible toxins!
With such high toxicity, let alone testing positive, even eating normal food will increase the accumulation of toxic gas. You absolutely cannot take supplements indiscriminately!
What they need is an exorcism!

The peach wood sword's properties, with its sweeping sword energy, make it very dangerous for ordinary human-headed balloons.

But the poisonous gas condensed on the human head balloons here is truly terrifying!

Therefore, even if it is swept by sword energy, there will be no problem.

On the contrary, it can help them expel some of the toxins from their bodies, which turns out to be a good thing!
"I will do my best to help you recover from the poison in your bodies," Chen Ye said.

"Is it really okay?"

The people sitting there, all with their heads on balloons, seemed very excited.

at this time.

After Chen Ye entered the factory, curious human head balloons kept circling around him.

Chen Ye was somewhat surprised to see so many human head balloons.

After all, the number of human head balloons wasn't that dense in the city; I didn't expect them to all gather in the factory.

Just glance at it.

There are probably over a thousand human head balloons here!
Since only those who complete a certain amount of work can receive pain-relieving medication from the pharmacy... these factory owners simply don't care, after all, their exploitation of people has long aroused public anger!

If you go out carelessly, you might get shot to death by some crazy human head balloons!
Therefore, these human balloons are almost all working voluntarily and are relatively free.

Seeing a new face arrive, everyone instinctively crowded around, wanting to see just how this newcomer had come in.

Don't look at it, look at it!
The one who entered here was actually a celestial being wielding a peach wood sword!

The fear of the human-headed balloons towards the peach wood sword is almost ingrained in their genes, because they are naturally yin in nature, and the peach wood sword is specifically designed to slay yin. If one drives the peach wood sword with the intention of killing evil, it can truly kill the immortal human-headed balloons completely!
Of course, in addition to these, the peach wood sword also has the ability to ward off evil and bring good fortune; it is a divine weapon that only immortals can wield!
They never expected this...

One day, this incredibly dark factory will unexpectedly welcome a celestial being!
And, surprisingly, her face looks so young?
now.

Chen Ye gripped the peach wood sword, which instantly split into several sword lights that swept towards the human head balloons present!

Buzz! ! !
The righteous sword light, carrying boundless righteous energy, swept across the figures of these human-shaped balloons in an instant.

The vast and righteous energy of heaven and earth is the traditional righteous energy of Taoism. It is righteous without being harmful and upholds the right path. It is most appropriate to use the vast and righteous energy to save these human balloons.

Wherever the sword light passed, all the human head balloons began to frantically expel the filth from their bodies!

Including the food they ate...

After the sword light swept through, things improved significantly!
"Thank you, Masato!"

"Thank you, Masato!"

"Thank you, Masato!"

"..."

After being bathed in Chen Ye's sword light, the human-head balloons rushed over to thank him.

"Now that the impurities in your bodies have been cleared, you should be able to perform your normal work, right?" Chen Ye asked.

The human-headed balloon gave a wry smile and said, "Yes."

“No matter what job we did before, we had already accumulated toxins in our bodies. Just standing there sweating would make other people feel disgusted, and we would also lose some unknown organs and become garbage on the ground.”

"So, no matter how low we lower our standards, no job will hire us anymore." (End of Chapter)
