Bearing the blue sky

"you……"

Ma Laizi stared wide-eyed at his chest, then at Zhu Ge, his face full of confusion.

Seeing that there was indeed no blood seeping from Ma Laizi's chest, but rather a clear liquid like that on Hua Liusha's body, Zhu Ge smiled.

"Excuse me, but out of the entire village, you're the only one who's too much like a 'person'."

Zhu Ge quickly stepped back: "Scholar, it's up to you now!"

"Very well!" Yu Xiucai's voice was authoritative, tinged with a sigh. "I didn't expect you to guess right, Zhu Ge..."

Yu Xiucai had not removed the "Ru" character from his chest, and he hadn't even stepped forward when Hua Liusha, the so-called god of fungi, collapsed, all for this moment.

"A scholar must be resolute and persevering, for his burden is heavy and his journey is long!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the character "儒" (Confucian) on Yu Xiucai's chest burst forth from his body and flew towards Ma Laizi, instantly illuminating the bodies of Ma Laizi and Hua Liusha.

"No!!!"

Ma Laizi spewed out countless mycelia, and the light spots at the tips of the mycelia floated away like dandelions.

Hua Liusha's body, which had already collapsed, stood up and spewed out points of light.

But those points of light all melted away like ice and snow under the scorching sun when they encountered the character "儒" (Ru).

A dark green fungus began to sprout from Ma Laizi's hands, feet, torso, eyes, ears, nose, and other parts of his body, and his eyes gradually became dull.

Finally, he knelt down with a thud, turning his head, whose eyeballs had already fallen out of their sockets, to look at Zhu Ge: "Why...why..."

Standing next to Yu Xiucai, Zhu Ge, slightly out of breath, laughed and said, "I told you, you're too human-like. You're the most human-like person in the whole village, and you're always watching me. You're the real number one shrine!"

"You perverted bacterium god, you're always watching over me like this!"

people!

Of all the people in the village, Zhu Ge thought and thought and concluded that Ma Laizi was the one who looked most like a human being.

Neither Yu Xiucai nor Zhu Ge really resembled human beings anymore.

Because under God's influence, how can anyone remain "normal"?

Furthermore, after Zhu Ge learned that her memory was faulty, she began to suspect that Jun Shen might have planted a thread.

After all, fungi are much weaker than other races. Even when dealing with Zhu Ge and his group, they would hide in the shadows and plot slowly. It is quite possible that they would use some underhanded schemes.

That's when Zhu Ge noticed Ma Laizi's unusual behavior.

After some observation and probing, Ma Laizi indeed revealed his true colors.

Zhu Ge suspected that the fleeting presence of the Fungus God in the west of the village was entirely due to the fact that the Fungus God's true form could not become a shrine.

Because it's too weak!

Therefore, the fungus god parasitized the horse worm through some means.

You should know that their village has gone to the woods to the west to pick mushrooms more than once.

It is estimated that Ma Laizi fell to his death while picking mushrooms, and was then made into a shrine while still alive, and had his memories taken away.

Ma Laizi is the number one shrine!

Hua Liusha is the second shrine!

This fungus god, according to the realm classification, has already reached the second realm, and because the souls of all the villagers were devoured by Him, He is about to break through to the third realm!

Subsequently, Zhu Ge began a series of plans and schemes.

For example, in his so-called plan to blow up the entire village, he left two layers of traps.

The first trap was a test of Ma Laizi, but the Fungus God pretended not to know and passed through smoothly.

The second trap is a trap of power and intrigue.

They tricked the mushroom god into believing that their preparations were all about gunpowder and blowing up the whole village.

In the end, the Fungus God was deceived by Zhu Ge.

By using this clever tactic, Zhu Ge made the Fungus God believe that he hadn't noticed Ma Laizi's abnormality, and in the end, he easily dealt with Ma Laizi.

Zhu Ge even suspected that the so-called plague that had previously lured the gentleman away was also a method created by the Fungus God to send the gentleman away.

"I... am not reconciled..." Ma Laizi's eyeballs fell to the ground.

The next moment, his body collapsed, and finally his entire body turned into a bunch of mycelium writhing like roundworms.

Under the illumination of the word "Confucianism," they ultimately vanished without a trace.

And just after Ma Laizi and Hua Liusha's bodies dissipated, Zhu Ge felt a certain sluggishness in her body disappear.

"The mycelium in the body has disappeared?" Zhu Geming realized.

They also have mycelium in their bodies, as does everyone in the village, but it's not real mycelium; it's something the Mycelium God conjured with his soul power.

Now that these mycelia have disappeared, it truly means that the fungal god is gone.

Zhu Ge's body can now be considered to have been completely "possessed" by his soul.

Nowadays, "Zhu Ge" is simply "Zhu Ge"!

Moreover, all the remaining people in Jianshan Village have recovered.

Unfortunately, the mushroom god killed many villagers before, and now there are probably only five or six survivors.

This is the best we can do.

If Zhu Ge hadn't gathered these villagers together, he probably wouldn't have even had a chance to wake them up.

"Finally recovered." Yu Xiucai retrieved the character "Ru" that was floating in the sky, and then sat down on the ground without caring about his image, grinning from ear to ear.

"Yes, it's recovered." Zhu Ge smiled as well.

Yu Xiucai was about the same age as Zhu Ge, and their mutual trust and hard work over this period of time had made them very compatible.

The double happiness symbol that had been floating in mid-air slowly fell down.

The double happiness symbol landed on Zhu Ge, entered his body, and appeared outside his giant egg soul, floating gently.

"Brother! From now on, your little sister will follow you."

Hua Liusha's voice echoed in Zhu Ge's heart.

"Follow me..." Zhu Ge suddenly understood.

The Double Happiness Ghost is bound to him.

Just like a celestial sword bound to its master by a drop of blood, or a spirit beast trapped in a spirit beast cage.

The Ghost of Happiness and he had developed a close and tacit understanding.

Upon seeing the Double Happiness Ghost fall into Zhu Ge's body, Yu Xiucai said, "Now that the Double Happiness Ghost is sharing life and death with you, you've actually gotten a bargain."

"What do you mean?" Zhu Ge asked curiously.

Scholar Yu laughed and said, "Everything in the world can be controlled. Some people control swords, some control beasts, and there are quite a few who control ghosts."

"With Hua Xiaomei transformed into a wedding ghost to help you, you can at least launch attacks and defenses on a spiritual level."

"Moreover, what makes ghosts special is their ability to bewitch others. Like the ability to steal a god, they can influence others and are very useful in special situations. I'm sure you've already discovered that."

"Indeed." Zhu Ge nodded, but she wasn't particularly happy inside.

He only has fourteen years to live.

If you don't increase your lifespan as soon as possible, you'll only have four years left to use the Kunpeng trait again.

Moreover, although the problem of the fungus god has been solved, the master has not yet returned, and the village is not as safe as imagined.

Tiger God was also present, and even Mr. Insect didn't know whether he was friend or foe.

"Huh?" Just then, Yu Xiucai got up from the ground and looked at the place where the shrine of the fungus god had just been destroyed.

"This fungus god actually left behind a seed? No, it should be what you call a spore?" Yu Xiucai picked up a shiny object from the ground.

Zhu Ge looked over curiously: "You mean...?"

"If we cultivate this spore, it might become a new fungal god." Yu Xiucai narrowed his eyes, a flash of joy crossing them:

"And it's a completely different Fungus God, without any of the original Fungus God's memories!"

A new Bacterial God?!

Zhu Ge exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this exactly what you and your husband thought at the beginning?"

From the beginning, Mr. and Yu Xiucai had considered raising the deceased Hua Xiaomei, Hua Liusha, into a goddess of happiness, because Hua Liusha's soul was very special and powerful.

However, it ultimately failed, and without Yu Xiucai's knowledge, Hua Liusha turned into a ghost of happiness.

But that line of thinking is actually correct.

Because of the special nature of gods, in many places, people actually cultivate and nurture deities to protect the land and water, and these deities are called "land gods".

If they cultivate this fungal god into their own deity, they will have a certain degree of self-protection even after their master is gone.

"But right now, the most urgent thing is to find a container." Yu Xiucai frowned. "The moon is high in the sky, and midnight is approaching. The moonlight at midnight is too strong and will destroy this seed."

"A container?" Zhu Ge was also somewhat troubled: "After everyone dies, there are only corpses. We can't use living people as shrines, can we?"

Scholar Yu nodded in agreement.

They didn't know exactly what materials the shrine needed, but at least the previous fungus god used a human body as its shrine, and it had to be a living person.

Many villagers died, and a few did survive, but killing the very people of their own village for the sake of a "god" was undoubtedly foolish.

Just then, Hua Liusha's voice echoed in Zhu Ge's mind:

"Brother! I have a way!"
