"Chu mi chu mi".

The little dumpling landed on Ziyue's shoulder.

During the day, Qin Luo and the others were very busy, so Xiao Tuanzi could only play in the mountains. They have only just returned to Longhu Temple.

"Little dumpling, do you want some porridge?"

Ziyue looked at the little guy on her shoulder.

The little dumpling shook its head at the sight of the congee.

When Qin Luo arrived at the backyard, the little dumpling immediately moved to Qin Luo's shoulder and leisurely closed its eyes.

"Senior brother, we earned over five hundred coins today. I hid the money under my bed while I sleep." Ziyue blinked.

This money will last them a long time. Qin Luo said softly, "The Taoist temple will probably be very busy during this period. When we have some free time, I will take you to town to eat meat."

"Uh-huh!"

There was light in Ziyue's eyes.

Since she started practicing the Five Elements Gathering Method, she hasn't been very hungry, but she still wants to eat meat.

The sun was about to set, and they hadn't started cultivating yet. Qin Luo closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the platform to cultivate, while the little dumpling closed its eyes to rest, its red hair swaying in the wind.

After finishing her porridge, Zi Yue squatted down to draw talismans. After practicing drawing talismans, she sat cross-legged next to her senior brother to cultivate.

They cherished their time and diligently cultivated themselves.

At night, Zhang Fulong was a little hungry. He planned to go to the main hall to eat the offerings sent by the people. When he passed by the backyard, he saw Qin Luo and Zi Yue still cultivating. He couldn't help but find it funny. Did these two silly disciples really think they could cultivate immortality?

Zhang Fulong didn't want them to be exhausted, so he said, "Ahem, staying up all night to cultivate immortality is bad for your health. You should get some rest."

"Yes, Master."

Qin Luo and Zi Yue opened their eyes.

While Qin Luo and the others were resting, Zhang Fulong came to the main hall. He ate the roast duck that the people had brought him and couldn't stop smiling. "Indeed, the common people are the easiest to fool."

He suddenly slapped himself.

Snap!

Zhang Fulong was somewhat bewildered.

A hoarse voice echoed in my mind: "You old bastard, have you no shame?"

Zhang Fulong covered his face, somewhat at a loss, "Is this a sudden pang of conscience?"

...

The next day, early morning.

Qin Luo and Zi Yue got up early. Recently, many people have been coming to the Taoist temple, so they had to get up early to work.

"Wow, the Taoist temple is so clean!"

Ziyue's eyes widened. She hadn't cleaned the Taoist temple last night; she usually cleaned it during the day.

There wasn't even a fallen leaf in the courtyard of the Taoist temple.

The water vat in the Taoist temple was full of water, and the firewood outside the kitchen was neatly stacked. Qin Luo knew what was going on just by looking at the fruit on the table. "The little monkey cleaned it up."

Ziyue was a little embarrassed. "Senior brother, I asked it to come and play, but it came to help us with chores instead."

"A very sensible little monkey."

Qin Luo thought the little monkey was quite good; he was hardworking and could endure hardship. Longhu Temple needed disciples like him. Several of his previous senior brothers had left Longhu Temple because they couldn't endure hardship.

For the next period of time, Longhu Temple was very busy, and Qin Luo and Zi Yue had no time to rest. Ten days later, the number of people coming to Longhu Temple gradually decreased.

Fortunately, during this time, the little monkey came to Longhu Temple every day to help with the work, which made things much easier for Ziyue and Qinluo.

A month later, Longhu Temple returned to its previous state, and people would occasionally come to the temple to offer incense and pray for blessings.

There have been no recent monster attacks or missing persons, so people are no longer nervous. The craze for buying door gods has passed, and Longhu Temple has returned to its usual quietness.

The little monkey and the little dumpling are frequent visitors to Longhu Temple. The little monkey is responsible for bringing food, while the little dumpling eats and drinks for free. After eating its fill, it sleeps on Qin Luo's shoulder.

early morning.

Zhang Fulong urgently needed to urinate.

As he passed through the backyard, he saw a little monkey sweeping the ground with a broom. At first, he didn't pay attention and thought it was Ziyue. But as he was about to leave the yard, he suddenly turned around.

"monkey?"

Zhang Fulong rubbed his eyes.

Ziyue brought the porridge to the backyard, her little face smiling, and said in a clear voice, "Master, it's a little monkey. It brings us fruit every day and helps me and my senior brother with chores."

"Greetings, Venerable Master!"

The little monkey bowed respectfully.

"Demon monkey!"

Zhang Fulong's eyes widened. He had never seen a monkey that could talk before in his life.

The little monkey was too scared to speak.

I thought Zhang Fulong was going to slay demons and monsters.

Qin Luo walked into the backyard with a smile on his face and said softly, "Master, the little monkey has been helping out at the Taoist temple lately. It can do everything, such as carrying water, chopping wood, and sweeping. I think it is very intelligent. Why don't you take it as your disciple?"

"yes."

Ziyue echoed her sentiment.

The little monkey looked at Qin Luo in surprise, its eyes filled with gratitude. It never dared to even dream of becoming his apprentice.

The little monkey is hardworking and resilient.

Qin Luo and Zi Yue both hope it will stay.

Zhang Fulong felt that the little monkey posed no threat. He pondered carefully. Longhu Temple had been popular for a while because of the door gods, but now it had returned to being deserted. If Longhu Temple had a talking monkey, it would definitely liven up the temple.

Seeing a business opportunity, Zhang Fulong said seriously, "Demon monkey, I can take you as my disciple, but if you cause trouble in the future, I will not forgive you."

Thump!

The little monkey knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Master, I will never cause you any trouble again. If I do anything bad, may I be struck by lightning."

"Hehe, I have a junior brother now."

Ziyue smiled sweetly.

Qin Luo nodded slightly. He felt that the little monkey was very intelligent and had the potential to become a supreme being in the future.

Zhang Fulong noticed that the little monkey was very sensible, and he asked seriously, "Monkey demon, what's your name?"

"This disciple has no name."

The little monkey shook its head.
