Chapter 1Burning Incense is Better Than Going to Work

There is a temple in Nanshan, which worships several gods. Immortals and Buddhas stand side by side. On the first and fifteenth days of each month, many people offer incense.

Today was the annual sacrificial ceremony in the temple. It was packed with people everywhere. People were busy and bustling. They prayed for children, wealth, peach blossoms, marriage, health, winning the lottery, being a rich woman's mistress... There were all kinds of requests. There were only things they could not think of and nothing they did not dare to ask for.

Among them, the temple with the most incense was undoubtedly the temple of wealth. The people who offered incense were shoulder to shoulder and there was a sea of people. Even the hawkers who bought the God of Wealth pendants and mobile phone case at the entrance of the temple made a lot of money. In stark contrast, the temple of Lu Xing was deserted. The old locust tree in front of the temple looked listless, like an old man struggling to survive.

In front of the hall hung a couplet, the first line: The world's articles, the stars in the sky, the second line: In front of the body to draw for the back into the air.

Granting all requests was just the wishful thinking of mortals. The immortals in the temple might not necessarily work hard for the prayers of mortals.

Yu Hu was the immortal official under the Lu God and also his most beloved disciple. At this moment, he was sitting on the swing of the locust tree branch in boredom, chatting with the locust tree spirit.

"Old Huai, oh Old Huai, how did the world become like this? People don't want to be down-to-earth and make contributions. They only dream of getting rich overnight. They can't wait to buy a lottery ticket today and win a million yuan prize tomorrow. Tell me, is that possible?"

The popularity of the Palace of Wealth was too explosive, it really made people jealous.

" They might know that the chances are slim, but since it's a prayer, what if it works?"

The old locust tree was indeed very old. The large branches on the crown were like a dragon's spine, and the leaves on the branches were sparse like claws flying in the air. It used to be a respected locust tree in the examination hall. With the decline of the Lu Xing Hall, it no longer had its former glory.

" Heh, that makes sense. That's why people choose to burn incense between going to work and visiting the grave."

When the swing reached a high place, she could see the situation of playing mahjong in the Palace of Wealth. Sitting opposite the door was the God of Wealth himself, wearing a black tiger robe and a whip hanging from his waist. The three immortal officials under him must be accompanying him.

Judging from the pile of small gold mountains in front of the God of Wealth, the battle was clearly one-sided. It made sense. Playing mahjong with the God of Wealth was simply stupid.

In contrast, the God of Lu was very conscientious. As long as there was someone who needed his help, he would patiently calculate the fate for them. He was very cautious about the matter of fate. In his words, whether it was the workplace or the officialdom, people in important positions were very important. Once the fate was given wrongly, it would not only be him who would suffer, but also countless innocent people who were involved with him.

"Yu Hu, stop playing. My old bones are about to fall apart from your shaking…"

The old locust tree blew at its beard and shook its branches, chasing down the jade board that had been tormenting it for the entire morning. The current situation of Lu Xing Hall was not as good as before. It could even be said that it could not make ends meet. Once the tree was damaged, even if it was a thousand-year-old spiritual tree, it would probably not have the money to repair it. At that time, it would be the one who would suffer.

Yu Hu didn't care. She patted the dust off her butt and entered the hall. The moment she entered the hall, Ming Jing, who was also an immortal official, pulled her sleeve and made a shushing gesture at her.

She followed his line of sight and saw that God Lu was tired after calculating for mortals for the whole night. He was sitting on his throne and dozing off. Two little immortal servants surrounded him. One fanned him to drive away mosquitoes, and the other blocked the sunlight that shone through the cracks in the roof.

The jade board pointed at the roof and then pointed at Mingjing Immortal Official, meaning, why didn't you fix the leaking roof?

Mingjing couldn't be bothered to lower herself to her level. She expressionlessly pinched her empty pocket. Repairing it required a lot of money, but the Fortune Star Hall wasn't prosperous now and was extremely short of money.

The jade board then pointed outside the door, indicating for them to go out and chat.

Mingjing thought that she was going to complain about the God of Lu again. She stood still and covered her ears, shaking her head. She didn't listen. The tortoise chanted scriptures. When the jade board was silent, she was like a very gentle female immortal. Only those who had worked with her for many years knew that she was a talkative crazy woman.

Yu Hu was already in a bad mood, and when he saw Ming Jing's appearance, he immediately felt sorrow from the bottom of his heart, and two lines of tears fell down.

This time, it was Ming Jing's turn to go crazy. He and God Lu were not afraid of the jade board making noise, nor did they mind the jade board making noise. They were afraid that she would drop her golden beans. When she cried, it was like opening a floodgate and releasing water. It was as if the sky was going to collapse because of her crying.

"Aunt, why are you crying?"

Ming Jing quickly covered Yu Hu's mouth and pulled her out of the hall to a remote corner to prevent the commotion from disturbing the God of Lu.

Mingjing, tell me, why is there no one to offer incense today?"

"Aren't you asking the obvious? People who wanted to get a higher salary wanted to go to school, get promoted, and get a promotion. However, students didn't want to do scientific research, but wanted to become an internet celebrity. As for officials, they didn't want anything from being honest, and they only wanted money from being greedy. As for promotion, promotion meant getting a little more salary, but they had to do twice as much work and take on twice as much responsibility. This was something that the world had long figured out. Which side job or financial management didn't earn money faster than a promotion? That's why I'd rather lie flat than get promoted."

Regarding this question, Ming Jing already had a draft in his heart. This time, he spoke frankly and couldn't help but sigh.

"If this continues, won't the Fortune Star Hall be unable to keep it? If Lu Xing Palace is gone, what should we do?"

The more Yu Hu spoke, the sadder he became. He could not stop crying for a moment. A large patch of his clothes was wet, and the makeup on his face was smudged.

" A few days ago, when the Immortal Elder of the South Pole was playing chess with God Lu, he said that he still needed an immortal official to feed the cranes. The job is easy and the treatment is generous. Besides, the relationship between the Great Emperor Tianguan and God Lu is not bad. Don't worry, he won't let us be homeless..."

Mingjing was brewing words, trying to appease Yu Hu's emotions.

In the end, Yu Hu cried even harder. She didn't want to go to the South Pole Immortal Weng to feed the cranes. Those annoying cranes loved to peck people's hair. There was also the Heavenly Official Great Emperor, who only spoke but didn't do it. She wouldn't really take them to heart.

She secretly made up her mind that she must do her best to protect the Lu Star Hall and not live under someone else's roof.

" Hey, don't cry. Look, someone's coming to offer incense!"

Mingjing shook Yu Wat's shoulder, indicating for her to look at Santong Spring, which could show the scene of the mortal world. Yu Wat looked out through her tear-soaked eyelashes and really saw a young woman in a khaki suit coming to Nanshan Temple's Lu Xing Hall. There was a work card hanging around her neck, which read " Hua Ge Brand-Planning-Tao Yi Ke ". Looking at her determined attitude when she walked in, she was actually heading straight for Lu Xing Hall.

Yu Hu's sharp eyes saw that Tao Yi Ke's palm was red, and he couldn't help but feel happy for her from the bottom of his heart. He immediately threw his little troubles to the back of his head.

There were three lines in the palm of a person's hand. The career line indicated how high a person could stand. In the eyes of the immortal in charge of promotion, if this line was black, it would have no achievements; if this line was red, it would have potential; if this line was gold, it would have a limitless future. Moreover, the three colors of the palm line would change according to the person's luck, just like the fleeting opportunity.

"If she sincerely prayed, it would definitely come true. At that time, the incense offerings of the God of Lu would increase again!"

However, the development of the matter was beyond their expectations. Tao Yi entered the hall, but he did not bow or beg. Instead, he cried loudly in the empty hall, as if he had endless sadness in his heart, which made people's hearts break.

Yu Hu knew that she couldn't see him, but he still couldn't help but attach his immortal spirit to the god statue in the mortal world. He came out from behind the altar in his illusory form and sat beside her, wanting to give her a little support. She was also curious in her heart. She wanted to know why she was so sad, why she came to Lu Xing Hall, what she wanted, and for whom?

"Don't be a busybody again!"

Ming Jing knew Yu Hu's character very well. When he was impulsive, he would not care about anything. He quickly sent a voice transmission to her to warn her. He turned his head to look at the movement outside the window and added," Your beloved immortal beast is eating the leaves of the old locust tree again. This strange taste really takes after its master."

" Shut up, you. Other immortal officials 'mouths are covered in honey, but yours must be poisoned!"

Although the jade board was complaining, the immortal spirit still honestly returned to the immortal world, walked out of the palace door to control the greedy immortal beast Di Jiang, and repeatedly apologized to the old locust tree, asking him not to tell on him in front of the God of Lu.

When she returned to the hall and looked at the scene of Santong Spring again, she found that Tao Yi Ke had disappeared. She was worried, so she quickly asked Ming Jing what had happened.

Mingjing seemed to be in a good mood. He pointed at the Merit Box that seemed to be moving.

"After she finished crying, she stuffed a few red notes into the Merit Box, then took three promotion talismans from the Divine Altar and left."

"Promotion Talisman? He left?"

Yu Hu's eyes instantly widened. She had been busy playing on the swing this morning and thought that no one would come to offer incense, so she forgot to inject spiritual power into the promotion talisman.

A promotion talisman without spiritual power would naturally not be effective.

"Yeah, let's go."

Mingjing watched Tao Yi Ke leave, so he was naturally not wrong.

"Ahhhh! What should he do? I'm in trouble!"

Yu Hu held his head, feeling extremely vexed. It was really a case of rain falling on a rainy night when the house was leaky, and the ship was late and met with a head wind. The incense offerings of the Lu Star Hall had already declined to such a state. If it was still rumored to be ineffective, just thinking about it made people feel extremely desperate.

Mingjing probably guessed that this was the case and slipped away quietly with a familiar expression.

It was late at night, the dew was heavy, and the chill was thick.

A figure tiptoed out from the silent Lu Xing Hall. He was bent over, covered with a face cloth, carrying a bag, and holding a round and strange immortal beast. At first glance, he looked like he had run away from home, and at second glance, he looked like a thief in the Taoist temple.

Moreover, this thief was a domestic thief. Not only did she steal the dream-peeping mirror that Ming Jing had carefully refined, but she also took a few notes from the Merit Box. She used a lousy invisibility spell to walk along the wall. Anyone who saw her would think that she was sneaky.

It was none other than Yu Hu, who knew that he had caused trouble and wanted to make up for it.

She wanted to go to the human world to find the woman called Tao Yike and inject spiritual power into the three promotion talismans to play their proper role, so as to avoid the bad reputation of the Lu Star Hall.

As the saying went, luck was also a kind of strength. In addition to strength, the advancement of mortals also required opportunities. Without opportunities, the direction of things would change unpredictably.

She also wanted to see with her own eyes what was going on with the promotion of mortals in the workplace. It would be best if she could find out the crux of the problem and save the incense of the Lu Star Hall so that it could return to its former glory.

She thought that she had left without anyone noticing, but who knew that there was a night owl lurking at the entrance of the Palace of Wealth. It was Xiao Sheng, who had woken up in the middle of the night to eat chicken drumsticks and was picking his teeth. He was the Celestial Master of Treasures under the God of Wealth.

After seeing her, Xiao Sheng, who had always been lazy, suddenly became energetic. He threw the chicken drumstick, wiped his mouth, and rolled his eyes. Wasn't this an opportunity to make a contribution? How could he miss it?

Therefore, he decisively shook the God of Wealth who was sleeping soundly and reported the matter to him.

" God Lu is such an old-fashioned person. His rule is not that good. When I said I wanted to cooperate with him, he ignored me and even mocked me for being born as a god of plague and not a legitimate apotheosis. He said that I was just a villain who had achieved success and disdained to associate with me. Now, I'm finally going to catch him. Humph, let's see if he can still show off!"

The God of Wealth had some impression of Yu Hu because she often stood in front of the hall and made a bad face at the God of Wealth. Her mood was written on her face. She was worthy of being the good disciple of the God of Lu. She was just as stubborn as him.

" Just let this girl go and cause trouble. It's best if she causes a huge mess. At that time, we'll give her the name of dereliction of duty. Heh, at that time, it's hard to say whether he can still keep his position as the God of Lu."

"What if she comes back after one round?"

" Then you should just follow her and don't let her come back easily. Isn't that enough?"

"But, I…"

Xiao Sheng looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated. The God of Wealth felt very uncomfortable. This Xiao Sheng was like a loach. He was smart, but he was a little slippery.

" Be a real man, why are you so hesitant? If you have something to say, just say it. If you have something to say, just say it!"

Xiao Sheng's smile was like a spring breeze. He bent down and cupped his hands. Since the God of Fortune had spoken, it would be a waste not to take it.

"God of Fortune, please give me a magic treasure!"

The God of Wealth laughed in anger. As expected of someone from his family. He had laid so much in front of him and was waiting here.

Fortunately, he was a magnanimous immortal and did not lack magic weapons. With a wave of his left hand, a pocket-sized small golden hook appeared on Xiao Sheng's left hand, inlaid with several crystal clear cat's eye stones.

"This is the Auspicious Golden Hook. It can help you get to know a noble person. You can get twice the result with half the effort."

Xiao Sheng waved his right hand again, and a pair of exquisite scissors with the soul of the Golden Flood Dragon appeared in his right hand.

"This is the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors. It can help you achieve the goal in your heart. Remember, you can only deal with things, not people."

"Thank you, God of Fortune, for your reward. I will definitely not disappoint you on this trip!"

" Cough cough…This is a temporary loan. Remember to return it after the mission is completed!"

The God of Wealth's face turned a little green. These were all his treasures. They were all expensive. It was fine if he borrowed them, but if he wanted to give them to others, it would be more painful than cutting his own flesh.

Xiao Sheng didn't waste any more time. Since the item was already in his hands, it wouldn't be a loss to satisfy his craving first.

Perverted Daddy System

“What the fuck? What is going on? Have I completely lost it?” As I stare panicky at the dot unable to decide what to do, the white dot disappears and a line of text appears in its place. [Installing files. 1% done…] As I watch the text in shock, the percentage gradually increases. […2%...3%...4%...] I move to the living room in a zombie-like manner, too shocked to think clearly and lie down on the couch. “Something is wrong with me; I think I finally lost my sanity…” […12%...13%...14%...] Unable to affect the situation in the least, I stare dejectedly at the percentage increase, while my mind starts exploring the possible explanations. In the end, as the percentage hits 90%, I narrow it down to three possibilities. The first possibility is that I am in fact still unconscious and this is all a product of my mind. I pinch myself and whimper at the pain, as in my nervousness I used almost all my strength. Nope, the first is out. The second possibility is that I have completely lost my mind and am suffering from delusions. Hmm, I cannot exclude this, but while possible, I don’t think that this is it. The only thing out of the ordinary is that fucking line of text. The third possibility … [Installation successful!] The text disappears and a new message appears in my eyes… The third possibility … is that I gained a system.
