Most of the gods were closely related to the human world. There were gods in charge of the lifespan of the human world, but no one knew who they were.
Similarly, under the gods in charge of the lifespan, there were some scribe gods. They were either in the temples of the human world or walking around the human world. They would record special people and special events and then report them to the gods in charge of the lifespan to increase their lifespan or to bless their descendants …
Zhu Minglang was not very familiar with the system of gods. He was mainly a god in charge of the gods. His responsibility was to send any god who had gone astray to meet the heavens.
Coincidentally, there was an imposing Earth Temple between Pingbo City and Moonlight City.
The temple was filled with incense. People would come to pay their respects at night. The smell of chicken, duck, fish, and gold paper mixed with the smell of incense. The magnificent temple was illuminated by bright lights. It was not inferior to the palaces of the nobles and royalty.
When they walked into the temple, a monk in a kasaya came forward. He first bowed and then said arrogantly, "If you want to offer incense, you have to wait outside the temple. The temple god is resting. Do not disturb him."
"We are here to look for the temple god," said Zhu Minglang.
The monk in the kasaya immediately said angrily, "The temple god is so honorable. How can you mortals see him just because you want to? Every year, many people wait outside the temple for the first incense. Even such devout people may not be able to hear the voice of the temple god. How can you say you want to see the temple god in person?!"
"Monk, I asked you to summon the temple god. Just do it!" Wen Lingfei did not have the patience and said coldly to the monk.
Just as the monk was about to get angry, a divine light flashed on a painting of mountains and seas in the temple. A temple god in an orange kasaya walked out of the painting. He put his palms together and there was a string of merit pearls in his hands.
"We are honored by your presence. I did not sense your presence immediately. Please forgive me!" The temple god walked over and quickly bowed.
The monk looked at Wen Lingfei and Zhu Minglang, then looked at the temple god who was kneeling on the ground.
He immediately sweated profusely and knelt on the ground trembling. His head was almost squeezed into the cracks in the ground!
"Scram!" The Earth Temple Deity's eyes were cold as he reprimanded the monks in the temple.
After the monk finished kowtowing, he scrambled out of the temple. His soul had probably left this place before he did.
"Are you the temple priest?" The Earth Temple God asked softly.
"Yes." Wen Lingfei nodded.
The Earth Temple was a place of protection, and it was also the most respected place in the Northern Dipper Divine Land by the people who did not have a clear faith.
Wen Lingfei's godly position had a lot to do with the Earth Temple. Her Temple Guardian Star was one of the sources of light for all the Earth Temples in the Yuheng Divine Border. Although she didn't directly manage the Earth Temples, she was still the superior of all the Earth Temple Gods.
"Forgive me, forgive me." The Earth Temple Deity said humbly.
Zhu Minglang sized up this Earth Temple God and realized that this Earth Temple God was the god who had transformed into a monk during the day.
It seemed that the voice of the deceased old man cursing the heavens had reached the ears of this Earth Temple God, and he had personally dealt with it.
She didn't know how it went. Zhu Minglang and Wen Lingfei had already left.
After going one round, it turned out that this was the person they wanted to ask.
"We are here to investigate some things. You are at the border between Pingbo City and Yuesha City. The merit books of the people of the two cities are in your hands, right? We have a list here. Read out the merit books of these people for us, and check their lifespans." Wen Lingfei said to the Earth Temple God.
"I am not qualified to see the lifespans of mortals, but there is a record of their merit books. Anyone who has done some great good deeds will have it written down. Those who have done one good deed a day and persisted for more than ten years will also have it written down in the merit books." The Earth Temple God said respectfully.
"That's right, that old man from the Wei family, is he a good person? You should have a record here. What did you do with him later?" Zhu Minglang remembered this matter and asked.
The Earth Temple God was stunned by the question. It took him a while to answer, "Yes … yes, both father and son are good people. However, even if they are good people, cursing the heavens is a taboo. I tried to persuade him, but he refused to listen. I had to cast a spell to make him behave himself."
"Cast a spell?" Zhu Minglang frowned.
"That's … that's … cough cough, cough cough … cough cough cough!!" The Earth Temple God suddenly started coughing.
"After causing a fire, some people need to be punished. Otherwise … cough cough cough, cough cough cough!!" The Earth Temple God finally caught his breath and was about to continue, but he started coughing again.
This time, the Earth Temple God kept coughing. He even coughed out some black stuff, like ashes that had been burned for a long time.
"Cough cough cough!!!"
Ashes were coughed out. The Earth Temple God started to feel pain. His face turned red as if he was about to suffocate. He kept coughing out more and more ashes, and it felt like there was no way he could finish coughing out all of them!
Zhu Minglang and Wen Lingfei were shocked.
'Does this Earth Temple God like to eat burnt ashes? Why is his stomach full of …'
"Cough cough cough cough!!!" The Earth Temple God started coughing violently. He was on the verge of pain. Veins popped out on his face, his eyes were bloodshot, and his hands were clutching his throat.
Something was wrong.
Zhu Minglang realized something and quickly went up to help him.
Wen Lingfei also hurriedly released her divine light to protect this Earth Temple God.
However, her divine splendor was of no use at all. It was as if this Earth Temple God had been cursed.
He spat out a large amount of ashes. The Earth Temple God's stomach was not that big. It felt like the organs in his body had been burned, but he did not realize it until a certain moment.
"It's a curse!" said Wen Lingfei.
"And it's as powerful as the servant curse!" said Zhu Minglang in a low voice.
"He's dying." Wen Lingfei was going to take out some talismans to protect the Earth Temple God, but she realized the talismans were useless.
Zhu Minglang and Wen Lingfei tried their best to save the Earth Temple God. Unfortunately, they were not good at healing. They could not do anything when faced with such a strange and powerful curse.
However, the Earth Temple God was curled up on the ground. He gradually calmed down from the intense struggle.
His calmness was the kind of deathly stillness that came from reaching the end of pain. It was too horrible to look at when he was motionless.
Zhu Minglang and Wen Lingfei could not do anything.
The Earth Temple God was killed by a strange curse right in front of their eyes!
The Earth Temple God was a Righteous God.
However, a Righteous God's life was taken away in a strange way. It was truly chilling …
The life of a God was as fragile as grass!
What kind of power, what kind of curse could kill a Righteous God when two Righteous Gods were present?
Zhu Minglang took a deep breath when he saw the Earth Temple God's death.
