I Am Your Natural Enemy

Sacrificial Paper Money is the least risky, but overall, high-quality Sacrificial Paper Money is also the scarcest.

The cheapest yellow joss paper is burned, and before burning, it is stamped with circulating cash using one’s hand on the paper, a very simple technique to learn at a glance.

During this process, if the emotions of remembrance, sadness, etc., from friends and family are intense and sincere, it causes soul resonance, and some of the purest soul power imprints onto the blank yellow joss paper, forming corresponding power on it.

If these items are burned for the Lost Souls, and they receive them, it’s considered Sacrificial Paper Money.

There are no denominations on it; it purely depends on the strength and purity of the soul power contained within.

Most are far less effective than Offering Paper Money, at least Offering Paper Money is stable.

However, there’s a small portion of Sacrificial Paper Money that is far more effective than regular Offering Paper Money, and in very rare cases, it can even become as powerful as a treasure.

The Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell is typical of those who are indiscriminate, only seeking quick accumulation, needed by both Ghosts and Life Souls.

Coming out of the small temple, the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell huddled up to a few Ghost Wealth Gods, listening to them exchange experiences.

But he returned late, missing the brief time of serious exchange and arriving during the gossip session.

”I heard that new one seems a bit strong, daring to deal with hundreds of living people at once on the first try, it’s a first-time sighting as well.”

”Hasn’t that guy been quite low key lately?”

”Low key my foot, that guy somehow managed to run to the border and persuade dozens of neighboring Ghosts.”

”Aren’t they afraid of messing up?”

”Afraid of what? The Scorching Sun Department over here hasn’t noticed, and over there, living people are already too busy to handle, who would care about Ghosts.”

”I’ve never seen Ghosts from outside the Divine Land, any difference?”

”What difference could there be.” A speaking Ghost Wealth God let two black beads float out of the black mist: ”Look, can you see any difference? Aren’t they all money?”

”Geez, what kind of scheme is this guy using, really sharp-minded.”

”Who knows, I haven’t met that guy either.”

As a few Ghost Wealth Gods were gossiping, the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell joined in, the fiery smell from him made the Ghost Wealth Gods instinctively retreat a little.

”What the hell smell is that, get away.” One Ghost Wealth God blurted out.

In one line, the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell, who had been stifled all night without a place to vent, immediately triggered.

The black mist behind his face rumbled, transforming into strands of black mist that indiscriminately spread out, like a War God standing in the center, scattering the surrounding Ghost Wealth Gods.

The filthy contamination carried by those black mists spread without discrimination, avoiding was impossible, causing all the present Ghost Wealth Gods to get tainted.

Even those small temples around were contaminated with that kind of filthy air.

Since the appearance of the Ghost Wealth God, no Ghost Wealth God has ever left with their capital depleted, and their face hit with scorching filth.

The Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell is the first to bring such human filth here.

After the madness, seeing the furious Ghost Wealth Gods, the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell felt maybe he’d gone a bit overboard.

But as soon as that thought flashed, the other enraged Ghost Wealth Gods pounced on him.

The mop covered in shit is most powerful when it hasn’t touched others, once touched it automatically triggers phase two.

The Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell fled hurriedly back to his small temple.

Outside, the angry Ghost Wealth Gods were about to explode, and they found the human filth they were tainted with, couldn’t be shaken off for some reason.

They no longer had physical bodies, yet they could still smell that fiery scent, even more clearly than when they had bodies, the faint scent lingering around them at all times, impacting their minds.

The Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell didn’t dare stay in the small temple, and quickly ascended to the present world.

When he returned to the small temple by the village entrance, he found a broken dog bowl thrown aside, and discovered his idol had been washed clean.

Ren Yubao curled up, leaning against the small temple, dutifully guarding it.

The Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell didn’t feel touched, he just figured, turning all the Ghosts he encountered into currency might not be good, he couldn’t operate freely in the present world, some things did need others to do.

In front of him was this peculiar, seemingly easy-to-bully Ghost, quite suitable for the job.

This Ghost really is honest, even after he left, it took the initiative to clean his idol and guard here alone.

After his thoughts spun quickly, the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell decisively said.

”From today onwards, you are my Temple Keeper.”

”Huh?” Ren Yubao couldn’t follow the thought of the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell.

”From today, you are my Temple Keeper, my most trusted, closest Temple Keeper, representing my will, sharing both joys and sorrows.”

”No, it’s... I...”

”Don’t feel pressured, I’m very satisfied with what you’ve done, it’s settled!”

Ren Yubao looked gloomy, wanted to say, you took my money, when will you return it, better do it quickly, I don’t want to be this Temple Keeper.

This said twice on the tip of his tongue, both times interrupted by the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell.

”Don’t worry about it, go get some water, clean my idol and temple thoroughly.”

”Oh...”

Ren Yubao remembered what his master said, to listen to Wen Yan after he got there.

Wen Yan told him, after coming here, just behave normally as you would, don’t worry about anything else.

Upon receiving orders from the Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell, Ren Yubao obediently responded, picked up a basin to fetch water, found a pig bristle brush from somewhere, and meticulously cleaned the idol and small temple.

The Ghost of Wealth with an Offensive Smell watched Ren Yubao’s serious demeanor, and felt even more that his idea was correct, they can’t eliminate them all, they need to keep a reliable Ghost to help with tasks.

Now he truly considered formalizing the Temple Keeper position.

Meanwhile, over on the Small Temple Square, several Ghosts became more enraged, discovering that the human filth contaminating them couldn’t be removed, and even their money was polluted.

This became intolerable.

One Ghost Wealth God couldn’t help but suggest an idea.

”How about, we find a way to get rid of that guy?”

”How to get rid of him?”

”I know that guy is in Guanzhong County, and I heard, just these past two days, someone from our peers accidentally provoked a tough character, got dispersed on the spot, and the temple was smashed.”
