However, because too many of these "Happy God Balls" were made, they were consumed very quickly once they were actually used.
Twenty days passed quickly, and Maoqiu still hadn't managed to make the "Happy God Ball".
Even if we only make one, it will be enough to deal with the current crisis.
Maoqiu naturally knew how important Bianlang's task of personally transporting corpses was. If he ruined Bianlang's task because of him, then his sin would be enormous.
"Maoqiu, tell me the truth, what the hell happened?" Bian Lang had lost his patience.
Maoqiu stammered and couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
Bian Lang laughed and said, "Did you get into some trouble?"
"Master, if I tell the truth, you must first promise that you won't fire me," Maoqiu said tremblingly.
The head steward of Xishen Pavilion is a job that's hard to find even with a lantern.
Maoqiu has been working in this position for over a thousand years and doesn't want to lose such a good job because of his own negligence.
Bian Lang said, "Okay, I promise I won't fire you."
With Bian Lang's words, Mao Qiu finally felt relieved and immediately said, "Sect Master, this is what happened. Not long ago, I met a girl..."
The story is short and cliché.
In short, Maoqiu was scammed.
That girl was Maoqiu's type, and he was completely smitten the moment they met.
Maoqiu forgot his own identity and directly took the girl to visit the Xishen Pavilion.
The girl wasn't particularly interested in the various corpses in the Happiness Pavilion; instead, she really liked the small Happiness Ball.
It's truly incredible that no matter how huge the corpse is, it can fit into that tiny amulet.
At the girl's urging, Maoqiu impulsively gave all the remaining Happy God Balls to her.
The girl accepted the lucky charm ball, saying she was going to the outhouse, and then she disappeared without a trace.
Maoqiu then realized he had been tricked. He thought that Bianlang's next task might be to transport corpses to the Happiness God Pavilion, and he had to make a new Happiness God Ball before that happened.
In the past, when he had more free time, it was very easy to make a "Happiness God" ball. But now that he's in such a hurry, accidents keep happening, and he hasn't been able to make a single "Happiness God" ball in months.
The more anxious you are, the less you can concentrate, and the less likely you are to make a "happy ball" smoothly.
"What's the girl's name? Where does she live?" Liu Yi asked immediately.
Upon suddenly hearing Liu Yi's voice, Maoqiu trembled with fright and turned around to see Liu Yi and Shangguan Hongyu.
The two women stood outside the door, their faces etched with disdainful, sly smiles.
Maoqiu suddenly felt a burning sensation on her face; she was incredibly embarrassed.
But he still shook his head.
"So, you gave all the auspicious balls you had to that girl without knowing her name or address, and didn't keep a single one for yourself?" Liu Yi asked, frowning.
Maoqiu nodded again, after all, what Liu Yi said was true.
Shangguan Hongyu sighed and smiled, "Honey, I think Maoqiu is no longer suitable to manage Xishen Pavilion."
“I think so too,” Liu Yi nodded.
Being messed up like this by a strange woman certainly proves how useless Maoqiu is.
If he were to meet another woman in the future, and she uttered a few sweet words, Maoqiu might just send all the corpses from Xishen Pavilion away.
"Master, I know I was wrong, and I will never make the same mistake again," Maoqiu quickly said.
Bian Lang said, "There are only ten days left. This is also the deadline for you to complete your redemption."
If they knew that Maoqiu had given away the Lucky Ball, and if they knew where that person lived, they could go and find the Lucky Ball back.
As it turned out, not only did they not know where the girl lived, but Maoqiu didn't even know her name, leaving the three of them at a loss for words.
It is said that the sins of Heaven can be forgiven, but the sins of oneself are truly unforgivable.
Maoqiu nodded, knowing that he had to calm down first and not get caught up in the production while anxious, or death would be waiting for him.
A few days later, the development of the wool ball still had not made any progress.
Fortunately, the actual day of transporting the corpses is still nearly forty days away.
Once Maoqiu is unable to make the God of Happiness Ball, Bianlang knows he will have to complete the corpse-driving task himself.
Ideally, we should find the girl who stole the lucky charm.
Bian Lang instructed Sun Wuse to inform the Winged Clan to see if any of them were aware of the matter.
The Winged Clan possesses the strongest intelligence capabilities.
On the appointed day, early in the morning, Maoqiu excitedly ran to find Bianlang, saying that he had finally made the "God of Happiness" ball.
Moreover, the quality of the auspicious balls made this time is even better than before.
Under high pressure, Maoqiu finally broke through its limits.
The corpse of the nine-headed monkey was placed into the Happiness God Ball and then stored in the Happiness God Pavilion, thus completing the task of transporting the corpse.
[Successfully drove the remains of the Nine-Headed Monkey to the Pavilion of the God of Happiness, and received the reward: Seventy-Two Transformations.]
Bian Lang was quite bewildered when he saw the reward given by the Corpse Brother.
Are these 72 transformations the same as Sun Wukong's 72 Earthly Fiend Transformations?
Regardless of whether it is true or not, Bian Lang wants to find a place to try it out right now.
The cultivation techniques given as rewards by the Corpse Brother generally do not require diligent practice. Even if they do, you only need to familiarize yourself with them briefly.
Bian Lang patted Mao Qiu on the shoulder and asked, "How many auspicious balls did you make this time?"
"Just three," said the fluffy ball.
Bian Lang said, "Keep the remaining two for me. You continue making them, the more the better."
"Master, making the auspicious ball is very tiring. Can I rest for a few decades first?" Maoqiu pleaded.
