The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 1019 Founding a sect

Sitting on the bus, Qiao Yu closed her eyes and sensed for a while before speaking:

"Alright, that girl just hired a stray cat to go to the Bauhinia Garden. She should be able to find it soon."

Liu Sheng nodded: "That's good. Don't let that person escape."

“They are pitiful people too…” Qiao Yu sighed.

“But it’s not good for them to harm people.” Liu Sheng shook his head. “The obsession of strange creatures is the most extreme and unreasonable. Although this Miss Xin did stand by and secretly laugh, she doesn’t deserve to die.”

Qiao Yu nodded, "This way, we can atone for our sins and even things out."

Liu Sheng smiled: "In this way, your reputation value should increase by a little more."

Qiao Yu took out a token.

It's engraved with a circle of cats and dogs, with a rather cartoonish design that doesn't look very serious.

But this is her sect leader's token.

The above shows:

[17976 reputation points are needed for the sect to open.]

"I just stopped the monster from killing someone and gained 100 reputation points," Qiao Yu said after confirming. "Once we successfully call the police and quell the monster's resentment, I should gain some more."

"That's good."

"Then, in the Wangmiaoshan APP that you made, Shengsheng, through everyone worshipping at the shrine... um, adding food and water, today it gradually increased by 56 points..."

"We've only just installed twelve machines, and we already have so many reputation points... from people and cats and dogs alike." Liu Sheng smiled and nodded. "Once we've installed this device throughout the entire city, I'm sure Wangmiaoshan's reputation points will be even higher!"

Qiao Yu couldn't help but feel fortunate.

"Luckily, Sheng Sheng is with me. If I were on my own, I really wouldn't have been able to come up with such a method... I don't know when it would have taken."

"We already agreed on that."

As Liu Sheng spoke, he patted Qiao Yu on the shoulder.

"But I didn't expect your promotion to be such a long-term task..."

Qiao Yu and she both sighed at the same time.

The matter of the celestial boat has come to a temporary end, and now both heaven and earth are busy with their own affairs.

The team conducting the first test flight will separate a portion of the spacecraft and build it into a space station.

Only after the space station is completed will we explore the flesh-and-blood immortal ship within the fetal god.

Meanwhile, wrangling negotiations between the four nations were still underway.

Taking advantage of this free time, Liu Sheng fulfilled his promise and entered Qiao Yu's advancement space with her to help her complete the advancement and ordination, thus truly becoming a god.

Unexpectedly, upon entering, they found themselves on a wild, overgrown hilltop, a dilapidated Taoist temple, and countless cats and dogs.

Even Xiaotian, who had come along, was stunned.

Yes, Xiaotian is here too.

Liu Sheng wondered if Qiao Yu's legacy was called "Wang Miao Shan" and if it was related to cats and dogs.

So they borrowed Xiaotian, who was quite intelligent, from Senior Sister Nangong.

After being stunned, Xiaotian was overwhelmed with joy at seeing so many companions and ran wildly across the mountains and fields.

The cats screamed and their fur stood on end, and the dogs chased and barked wildly. In an instant, the entire Wangmiao Mountain was like a pot of oil with water droplets falling into it—exploding into chaos and excitement.

However, Xiaotian quickly obtained information from these cats and dogs, telling them that no one had lived on this mountain for thirty-five years.

However, the former abbot still left something behind, hiding it very deep under the altar and sealing it with bricks. Only when a cat occasionally slipped through the cracks did he find out about it, thus avoiding being robbed by wave after wave of thieves, unlike the other items which were taken away.

Qiao Yu used an explosive talisman to open the bricks under the altar and found an oil paper package.

The oil paper package contained a token.

Three silver ingots.

There is another letter.
-
To the person who initiated the letter:
I wonder if you could be a descendant of our Wangmiao Mountain.

My master once said that a descendant of the Celestial Master of Wangmiao Mountain would descend, but I have waited my whole life and still haven't seen him.

I really don't know if this person even exists...

If they don't come soon, the lineage of Wangmiao Mountain will be cut off. I've tried passing it on to others, but this damned inheritance token doesn't even recognize me, let alone anyone else...

Thus, I can only leave with regret.

This silver ingot is for whoever finds this letter—regardless of whether they are a descendant of the Celestial Master of Wangmiao Mountain, please use this silver ingot to rebuild the mountain gate and, incidentally, feed the cats and dogs on the mountain. Although I have already asked Old Lady Zhu at the foot of the mountain for help, I don't know if she is still alive...
-
Seeing this, Liu Sheng looked at Xiao Tian.

Xiaotian howled twice and shook its head.

It seems that the old lady is no longer with us.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of food in these mountains, so these cats and dogs are all shiny and muscular, and they don't seem to be living too badly.

There's not much more content after that:
-
In short, I hope you can take over Wangmiaoshan.

Wang Daozi's Last Words
-
"What time is this... what time is it now?"

Qiao Yu was puzzled.

Unfortunately, the answer to this question cannot be found on this mountain.

These cats and dogs would never know.

"The world" indicates that more information is needed to know.

This world is strange. While it doesn't seem like entering a higher dimension where one would lose their original identity, it also doesn't entirely resemble the world that descends through the Seven Mysterious Decree passage—

Although Liu Sheng and Qiao Yu still possess cultivation, it is as if it is locked away, preventing them from using it at will.

According to "the world," this promotion space is reserved for the successors of the Celestial Master of Wangmiao Mountain, so they can only use related abilities, otherwise they will attract "OOC monsters."

[There really are "OOC" monsters everywhere...]

Liu Sheng was annoyed by this.

In this way, she would have divine power in this world but be unable to use it, making her even weaker than Qiao Yu.
She couldn't even use her storage bag, which meant she couldn't even change out of her Tang Dynasty attire.

Qiao Yu also said, "It's okay, Sheng Sheng, I will protect you."

"Never mind, it's not so bad to be a delicate little white flower for once."

Liu Sheng quickly redefined his own position.

Since there was nothing on the hilltop, the two decided to go down.

At the foot of the mountain lies a peaceful little village.

It is isolated from the world deep in the mountains and is quite primitive.

But not many people live here; it's mostly elderly people and children left behind. The others who can go out have all gone out to work.

The countryside was peaceful, and nothing happened.

No one had ever heard of Wangmiaoshan, and they even scoffed at the name.

The two of them talked for a long time, but it had little effect.

Instead, they were constantly being kicked out.

So the two of them had no choice but to leave the mountain village and see if there was any way to go further away.

Upon venturing beyond the mountain village, one discovers that while the technology of this era is not advanced, it has entered the StarNet era.

It should be similar to the "Yi Yu" period, which is around 5,000 years ago.

I promoted Wangmiaoshan online, but people just laughed at me.

My reputation points even decreased.

"There's no other way, we still have to do some real work." Liu Sheng realized, "We have to start with Wang Miaoshan's main business."

"Wangmiaoshan's main business..."

"It's just slaying demons and monsters? We're experts at that!"

"Makes sense!"

Qiao Yu nodded repeatedly.

We've finally found our direction.

Soon, after "converting" the first strange creature and gaining 100 reputation points, Qiao Yu's "Wangmiao Mountain" sect leader token was finally activated.

Thus, he obtained his first formal inheritance—[Befriending Beasts]!
As descendants of Wangmiaoshan, we treat all animals equally. This tradition can help you become better friends with animals!

Note that not all animals can become friends, especially certain primates...

However, when asked how to use it specifically, the response was simply, "Please figure it out yourself."

However, Qiao Yu soon discovered that she could sense Xiao Tian's thoughts and could also vaguely understand the emotions of the birds, wild cats, and even the mice in the dark corners around her.

"So this is what it means to befriend beasts..."

Even the sect's spirit beast, Xiaotian, stated that most of Wangmiao Mountain's reputation points in the past were obtained through adopting stray cats and dogs over the years.

"No wonder they are unknown in human society."

Qiao Yu couldn't help but complain.

"We still need to increase the population of Wangmiao Mountain," Liu Sheng suggested. With Liu Sheng joining Wangmiao Mountain and becoming an "elder," his reputation points immediately increased by 500.

Xiaotian's addition as the sect's divine beast also increased his stats by 100.

Even so, they are still far apart.

Qiao Yu couldn't help but feel despair about her path to ordination.

"Where can I find more... no, recruit some disciples? Without reputation points, I can't recruit anyone. Isn't this a vicious cycle?"

Liu Sheng's eyes lit up again.

He snapped his fingers and said, "I've got it!"

"What did you think of?"

"I've figured out a way to quickly increase your reputation!"

……

The two sold the silver ingots for money.

First, Liu Sheng was given a computer, and each of them was given a mobile phone.

Soon, Liu Sheng built the prototype of the [Wangmiaoshan] APP, and purchased various parts to build the first [Wangmiaoshan Shrine] and put it into use.

Sure enough, whenever someone feeds stray cats and dogs, Wangmiao Mountain's reputation will increase slightly.

It mainly comes from these stray cats and dogs.

If they are sterilized, the price will rise even more.

"It seems to be to make up for the losses caused by the reduction in the animal population." Liu Sheng estimated, "Anyway, we don't need to think about future generations, we just need to gain more in the short term."

Qiao Yu nodded.

She followed Liu Sheng's arrangements in everything.

At most, they would contribute their strength and help those in need.

If you save someone, your reputation will increase significantly.

Furthermore, we can take this opportunity to promote the [Wangmiaoshan] APP.

Participating in the offerings is also acceptable.

It would be even better if we could buy a new shrine.

"An order for a new shrine has been added!" Liu Sheng said with a smile. "The three of us crowdfunded it, one of whom is Miss Xin, whom we just rescued."

"That's great!" Qiao Yu said happily.

"But we don't have enough materials. We need to buy some more tomorrow and make another one to distribute in the community."

"okay."

"Let's deal with the immediate problem first."

Liu Sheng said in a low voice, his gaze fixed intently ahead.

The two were speaking in hushed tones.

The driver in front was not alerted.

There were also other passengers in twos and threes.

And many more unseen passengers.

It is now 10:30 p.m.

There was no light outside, not even a streetlamp.

This is not normal.

Only the silvery moonlight shone down, and the dark streets were lined with old and abandoned shops.

Although the technological development of this era is not considered advanced.

But these shops look like they came from much earlier times; the roller shutters are covered in rust, the shop signs are yellowed and worn, and the paintings and fonts are still hand-drawn.

It's as if this car has driven back in time.

Moreover, the temperature inside the car gradually decreased.

A thin layer of frost even formed on the windows.

As the frost grew whiter and the outside became almost invisible, the unseen passengers inside the car became visible.

Their skin was pale and bluish-white.

The car drove along with a bumpy, uneven path, but their figures remained stiff and motionless, as if they were in a separate space from the car.

Such figures would not appear in the seats originally occupied by passengers, so Liu Sheng and Qiao Yu are currently safe.

As they moved forward, the figures gradually approached a populated area, and they could vaguely hear whispers:

“It’s so cold… so cold…”

The lower body was still firmly fixed to the seat, but the upper body stretched out like putty, twisted too exaggeratedly, and even the face was slowly moving closer.

So Liu Sheng was finally able to see the face in front of him.

Her skin was pale and bluish-white, but it was already swollen to an extreme degree. The gas underneath kept puffing up, inflating her entire face to an unbelievable state.

Its eyes were squeezed shut, and seaweed, shrimp, crab, and fish kept bubbling out of its mouth. But after an unknown amount of time, it rotted and stinked, emitting a strong fishy stench, and then fell off with a clatter.

Some even fell onto Liu Sheng's legs.

Liu Sheng felt a little heartbroken that her only piece of clothing was dirty.

The money from those three silver ingots wasn't much, and it all had to be spent on equipment, so Liu Sheng couldn't bear to change her clothes and could only continue to act like an ancient person.

But she couldn't show it.

Just staring straight ahead, they seemed completely oblivious to how terrifying the approaching face was.

There were five other people on the bus.

Two men dressed in Taoist robes and with their hair tied in Taoist buns sat together.

The other three sat alone.

One was an elderly man wearing sunglasses, tapping his cane, looking quite calm.

A blonde woman, who was also wearing a snow-white Taoist robe.

The only one who was not at peace was an office worker who looked exhausted and had just been fast asleep. He only slowly woke up when the pale face next to him finally leaned on his shoulder.

When I woke up, I was greeted by this horrifying sight.

He screamed.

Unexpectedly, the other person also screamed.

As its mouth opened wide, countless dead fish and shrimp spewed out, filling the entire bus with a putrid stench.

All the "passengers" who were originally moving slowly suddenly seemed to have their fragile nerves triggered, and screams rose and fell like a contagious disease, deafeningly loud.

Fortunately, Liu Sheng and Qiao Yu are both physically strong.

It was just a slight tremor in my eardrum.

The office worker, however, was in no condition. He covered his ears and rolled around on the ground covered in rotten fish and shrimp, suffering terribly.

Just as Qiao Yu was about to make a move, the blonde woman next to her, who was closer, struck first.

A yellow talisman was cast.

These unsettling screams were instantly silenced.

Then the woman conjured a peach wood sword out of thin air and stabbed it at the strange creature that was lunging at the office worker.

The sword was clearly just a wooden sword, but when it pierced the skin, it easily cut through it like a thin sheet of paper, and a large amount of rotten fish and shrimp flowed out, leaving the ground covered with foul-smelling black water.

As the liquid accumulated, it almost formed small waves that caused the entire bus to shake violently.

Even the road ahead appeared as a black ocean.

The car was clearly about to slide into it.

"Damn it!"

The two men who were sitting together cursed loudly.

He pulled out a long, gleaming silver sword.

A talisman froze the entire space, temporarily stopping the bus from falling into the sea.

The other man, who was sitting alone, finally couldn't hold back any longer. He flew forward and threw out a talisman, which turned into golden ropes that bound the driver.

Although the driver tried to fight back, he was firmly held in place.

The final blow pierced through the forehead.

Liu Sheng held down the excited Xiao Tian and turned to Qiao Yu, whispering:

"So... you have so many fellow disciples?"
