Zhao Youliang's foolish appearance clearly satisfied the grasshopper spirit's vanity.
After chuckling, he explained, "'Abandoned temple' is a dilapidated temple that no one worships. It means that the gods that were originally enshrined there have run away or left for other reasons because there is no incense."
“Some temples were even built, but the gods and immortals they were worshipped never even came.”
"In that case, many wandering ghosts or other inexplicable things will 'live' in here."
"What do you think would happen if an ordinary person dared to come in?"
Zhao Youliang nodded repeatedly as he listened, and the grasshopper spirit was quite satisfied with his studious attitude.
So he continued, "The temple that the elders and folks of the town built for us, we haven't even entered yet. It's practically an abandoned temple."
"If that old guy you just mentioned has something on him and takes over our spot, wouldn't we be at a disadvantage?!"
"Even if we manage to drive him away in the future, it's like we haven't even lived in our own brand new house for a single night, and someone else is eating and defecating in it. Doesn't that disgust you?!"
After hearing what the grasshopper spirit said, Zhao Youliang finally understood.
"Yes, that won't do."
"Old Immortal, if you want to go and take a look, go ahead, but you'll have to keep an eye on things!"
After obtaining Zhao Youliang's permission, the grasshopper spirit did not go himself, but instead sent his most clever little brother "Beili", which is the "Beili spirit" mentioned earlier.

Upon hearing this, the wolf spirit immediately transformed into a black gust of wind and headed straight for the location where the temple was being built.
After offering incense according to custom, Zhao Youliang did not immediately go to bed.
Nothing special, I'm just a little hungry.
I only drank a few bottles of beer at the barbecue restaurant, and now that I've peed them all out, of course I feel hungry.
Considering that asking the big yellow dog to go out and find food for him at this time would definitely result in a beating, he had no choice but to take matters into his own hands.
Just then, Zhao Youliang suddenly felt a familiar presence approaching him. He turned around and saw Huang Yu and Xiao Jiaozi.
Huang Yu was still dashing and debonair, only now he was even thinner;
Little Dumpling is still adorable, with her hair in a high ponytail and a red bib, holding a rattle drum in one hand and a candied hawthorn in the other.
"Haha, Brother Huang, Little Dumpling, you're finally back!"
Zhao Youliang was overjoyed to see this and picked up the little dumpling, kissing her again and again.
He had originally wanted to hug Huang Yu, but for some reason he "didn't dare."
On the contrary, Huang Yu was extremely generous, smiling and giving Zhao Youliang a light hug.
"Youliang, you've been doing well while Xiaojiao and I were away, haven't you?"
Zhao Youliang nodded repeatedly upon hearing this: "Yes, yes, that's good. Although a lot has happened, our branch hasn't suffered any losses."
"Haha, Brother Xiaoyu, you and Xiaojiaozi take a break first. I'm cooking, so I'll make a few more dishes."
"Later, the three of us... let's call Brother Dog, and the four of us will have a drink."
"Oh, by the way, Brother Prisoner and Xiao Liao went out to run some errands and will be back in a while."
Upon hearing this, Huang Yu neither said nor asked any further questions, but simply nodded slightly.
Without further ado, he took the knife from Zhao Youliang and skillfully began cooking.
"Quantum, you and Little Dumpling can rest. I'll cook this meal."
"Just wait and eat."
Zhao Youliang was stunned to see Huang Yu cooking even more skillfully than himself.
"Brother Huang, I never knew you could cook!"
Huang Yu ignored him and just smiled as he continued working.
Seeing this, Zhao Youliang could only sit on the stool and hold the little dumpling in his arms.
"Little Dumpling, what have you and Brother Yu been up to lately?"
The little guy hesitated upon hearing this, then, after a moment's thought, seeing that Huang Yu wasn't paying attention to him, he spoke softly.
"Brother Quantum, Xiaoyu... Brother Xiaoyu told me not to say it."
......
As it turns out, Huang Yu's cooking skills were far superior to Zhao Youliang's. In a short time, he used simple ingredients to prepare a table of delicious and visually appealing dishes.
He even personally invited Da Huang, Chang Jie, and other deities to gather around the table for a "dinner".
The atmosphere was originally cheerful, but for some reason, Zhao Youliang always felt that there was a faint sadness in Huang Yu's eyes.
And he has been trying his best to cover it up...
Before Zhao Youliang could even ask a question, a dark figure burst through the back door.
It was more like a stumbling run back than a desperate attempt to escape; it was none other than the "wolf spirit" that the grasshopper spirit had previously sent out.
At this moment, the wolf spirit truly lived up to its name—it was in a very sorry state.
His already disabled upper limbs were broken off and hung limply in front of his chest.
His face was a bloody mess, as if he had been scraped with a spiked club.
"Oh my god, what happened to you?"
As the leader of the Evil Hall Immortals, the Grasshopper Spirit immediately went to greet him.
He then applied the herbs he had made, like kneading dough, all over the wolf spirit's face.
Whether it was due to the severity of its original injury or the burns from the herbs, the wolf spirit immediately let out a miserable scream.
While screaming in pain, he complained, "Quantum, guys, our temple has really been taken over by someone."
"It was taken by a dead kid!"
"That guy's fierce! He didn't even wait for me to say anything before he started hitting me!"
"If I hadn't been quick-witted and run away as soon as I saw the danger, I would have been killed by that brat today!"
"You brat?!" Upon hearing the wolf spirit's words, the entire hall immediately fell silent.
Because they immediately thought of Zhao Youliang's mortal enemy, another servant of the King of Biancheng.
He's a ghost immortal...
After a long silence, the grasshopper spirit slumped to the ground, almost bursting into tears.
It's like a lonely old person who has suffered all kinds of grievances.
"He's already a ghost immortal, what's the point of him arguing with us, a small and insignificant family? Isn't that just bullying us?"
"What use is this little bit of incense to him? It's just cutting off our path of cultivation."
"If they're even more immoral or do something sinful, it'll all be blamed on our gang."
"Oh my god, I can't live like this anymore!"
The grasshopper spirit's lament also represents the sentiments of the vast majority of the spirits in the temple, especially the seven siblings of the silly roe deer and the wandering ghosts that were taken in one after another.
They can't compare to the direct descendants of the five major families, namely Huang Yu, Chang Jie, and Xiao Jiaozi.
To a large extent, this was the only time in their long lives that someone gave them the opportunity to build a temple and make offerings.
It is also the only opportunity to achieve enlightenment through the merits of offering incense.
Just when the entire hall was shrouded in gloom, Huang Yu silently stood up.
"Even if the other party is a ghost immortal, you can't be this unreasonable."
"You wait here, I'm going over there to argue with him."
"In short, we can't just stand by and watch Quantum suffer such a huge loss, and we can't let our branch suffer such a huge loss!"
After saying that, Huang Yu turned and left, heading towards the direction of the temple repair.
