Chapter 59 - Taking Over as Temple Head (2/2)
This Cool Breeze Temple was a really relaxing place. The only thing Little Fatty had to do was to watch the cave. He just needed to prevent beasts from going in, monitor the growth of the spiritual mushroom, water it a little and that’s all. As for all these things, they were mainly done by the Taoist monks under him. As a temple head, Little Fatty really had nothing to do. On the surface, his job was to supervise, but in reality, he had nothing to do. Every half a year the Mystical Sky Temple would send someone to collect the spiritual mushroom and eyeless fish. Apart from handling them, he does not have anything else to do for the rest of the year.
In this feast, Little Fatty also managed to taste the special products of this place, spiritual mushroom, and eyeless fish. He was their new boss after all and those Taoist monks would definitely want to get into his good books.
Talking about that, the eyeless fish and spiritual mushrooms tasted really good. The eyeless fish was only 3 inches long and had a transparent body. It got its name from the fact that it did not have an eye. Being placed in the mouth, the meat was tender beyond belief and the aroma of the fish’s fragrance was something one could not forget. As for the spiritual mushroom, it was a fist-sized white mushroom. It was really tender and was like tofu when placed in the mouth.
Both of these items were all spiritual items which contained spiritual Qi. If a cultivator consumed it, it would aid in their cultivation. If a mortal consumed it, it would extend their lifespan.
It was a pity that these things are a little expensive. Due to the fact that this was the only place which produced it, and that only 400 catties of fish and 600 catties of mushroom were produced a year. Thus, it was not cheap outside. Just this meal of Little Fatty costs a few thousand spiritual stones. Although he was the temple head, but he can only eat it occasionally and not every day.
But Little Fatty was greedy. After eating it once, it triggered all the greedy worms in him. As such, he became interested in the cave. Using an inspection as an excuse, Little Fatty entered the cave with the company of a Taoist monk.
After exploring the temple, Little Fatty realised that the environment here wasn’t too bad. The cave was very deep, there were large and small paths with all the paths intertwining. Many places had rivers which were deep beyond measurement. The spiritual mushrooms grew on the banks of the river, while the eyeless fish swam around in the river. Apart from that, the river had a white coloured water gra.s.s, which was said to be the food for the eyeless fish.
The eyeless fish swam freely in the river and Little Fatty almost drooled as he watched from the riverbank. He thought to himself, ‘This fish is really very nice. If only I could have it every day. But this is after all the property of the sect. When I leave in future, I will not be able to eat it anymore! Don’t tell me I can only buy it in future?’
Thinking about this, Little Fatty did not feel comfortable in his heart. Suddenly, his heart moved and thought about something. Since he could store the 5 element lotus into his Natal Artifact, why can’t he store the eyeless fish and spiritual mushrooms in? Since both of these are spiritual items, they would definitely enjoy a place with abundant spiritual Qi. If that’s the case, then his own dimension should not have any issue with storing it. If he succeeded, then he would have good food in future!
