Inherited a Land God Temple

Jiang Chu recently got a new job: he became the local earth god at a shrine. The place was surrounded by lovely scenery, and his fellow guardian deity was a delicate little mushroom. But the area was far from peaceful. A group of powerful demons and evil spirits made a bet: whoever could drive them out of Jiumu would command all the demons. Trouble came one thing after another. Jiang Chu could only bluff and scheme, doing his best to build himself up as a mighty deity. To his surprise, he actually managed to fool the demons. The ferocious wolf demon was sent off to plant rice seedlings in ten acres of paddy fields. The mischievous wind demon was made to sweep ten blocks. The troublesome water ghost was dragged off to pick trash out of several rivers... As Jiang Chu supervised the demons at work, he leaned close to whisper to the guardian deity, "Senior Brother, I didn't give myself away today, did I?" "No, Junior Brother. Your acting is improving. I'm so weak, it's a good thing I have you to protect me." The guardian deity ruffled his hair, then quietly flashed his sickle at the demons eavesdropping nearby. The demons: coughing up blood. A deity who pretends to be human, the top, x a deity who pretends to be weak, the bottom Jiang Chu x Sui Yuan A few notes: 1. This story is set in an alternate world. The local earth god shrine borrows from some folk traditions, but includes original elements. 2. The story was inspired by the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Eastern mythology, and tales of the strange. It does not follow real-world logic closely and has an exaggerated, cartoon-like style. 3. This story is entirely fictional. Do not believe in superstition or apply it to real life. Check out my completed no-romance novel, I Inherited a City God Temple. Theme: All things have spirits and feelings.
