With just one sound, Qiu Yan identified the gender of the speaker and was surprised.

In the world where he lived in his previous life, the concept of gender equality was deeply rooted in people's hearts, but after coming to this world, after absorbing Qiu Yan's memory, he had a certain understanding of this world and knew that this world was still at a stage where the status of men and women was different, so he was surprised.

However, after a little thought, he was relieved.

"There is no need to say more about the mortal world. After all, the one who appeared in front of me now is a god, so it must be normal to be different."

Thinking of this, Qiu Yan calmed down.

Click!

The person at the table moved slightly, and the armor on his body made a metallic collision sound. This set of armor wrapped the whole body of the person in front of him, without revealing a bit.

"However, let's not talk about the gender of this city god, just this outfit is enough to surprise..."

Swish!

Just when Qiu Yan's thoughts fell, a sound of breaking through the air was heard, and the city god raised his hand and swung it, and the book in his hand flew towards Qiu Yan.

In a flash, the book was in front of Qiu Yan. He immediately took two steps back reflexively, his face showing alertness, while the book was suspended in the air.

At this moment, the City God spoke, still in a mellow voice.

"I have kept you waiting for so long, this book is an apology."

As he spoke, Qiu Yan's eyes fell on the cover of the book, and suddenly, four words came into his eyes-

"The Way of Life and Death".

Strange waves continued to radiate from the book.

"What is this?" Qiu Yan was startled and his eyes returned to the City God.

Not long ago, Qiu Yan had just sorted out his thoughts and decided to find a way to practice for the scholar's clone. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, the required method appeared in front of him, becoming a "compensation".

However, Qiu Yan's first reaction was not joy, but he felt that the connection between him and his clone had been seen through by the female City God in front of him.

Unexpectedly, the City God slightly raised his head, and a voice came from under the mask: "I know that you and the scholar named Qiu Yan have some causal connection, but he is just a mortal after all, and you are a natural god. Long-term contact is a disaster rather than a blessing for him. You gave him this book, even if it is to repay the cause and effect, whether he can practice it depends on him."

"Huh?" Qiu Yan heard it lightly.

Yuanning City God said again: "Don't doubt it, you are a natural god, of course I will not let you go, and I will not play those empty tricks. If you are willing to join my staff and subordinates, I will naturally not treat you badly. This booklet is nothing at all."

Hearing this, Qiu Yan gradually regained his composure and asked a question: "Please ask the City God to explain and solve the doubts. What is so unusual about this natural god?"

"I knew you would ask this." Yuanning City God nodded, "If you want to become a god, you must have a seal and a mind. Whether it is the mind of the people, the mind of the monster, or the mind of the natural world, they are all indispensable to us gods."

"But among the gods, gods like you who are created out of nothing are the most rare, because even if they are revered by the people during their lifetime, and become gods after death, or comprehend some secrets of heaven and earth, and are canonized after death, they are all limited by the original three souls and the entanglement of cause and effect, and it is difficult for them to make their own decisions. Only natural gods like you who are born out of thin air can get rid of these, and without being canonized, they can..."

"Change the law position and improve the quality of the god position by yourself!"

Qiu Yan frowned slightly, and caught some information from the other party's words, but his understanding of the matter of the gods was limited, so he could not accurately grasp the key. However, he still had a little understanding of the quality of the god position.

The quality of the god position, like the rank of the secular officialdom, is an important criterion for judging gods. For example, Huang Jue, the land of the south city, is a sixth-rank god, and Qiu Yan himself is a seventh-rank god.

Different god positions have different mastery and control of divine power.

However, because he had been trapped in one place for decades, there was not much incense to offer, and even a few divine stars could not be condensed. Qiu Yan did not know how to improve the quality of the divine position.

"As long as you join my army, I will tell you in detail about matters related to the way of God. As for the incense, you don't have to worry about it," said the city god, standing up, with a slender body wrapped in armor, not tall, "Of course, I won't force you, you might as well go back and think about it."

At this point, she paused, and then said: "The few new monsters that entered the city have some connection with the scholar. I have sent people to warn them. This is not just to win you over. These monsters devoured the people in the city. Since the people worshiped and offered sacrifices to me, I should give something in return."

"The monster that entered the city is indeed related to me!"

Qiu Yan was not surprised when he heard this, but the other party did not cover up Qiu Yan's winning over in his words, and he was a little surprised and puzzled.

"Why is it that the city god and the land god in the south of the city have different opinions and treat the people in completely different ways? However, the information revealed in her words shows that she has not discovered the connection between the original body and the clone, and she treats them as two people."

Just as he was thinking, he saw the city god in armor raised his hand and grabbed twice.

Whoosh!

The air flow rolled, gathering the wisps of smoke scattered in the air, lingering around the city god's hand, and gradually gathered into a finger-sized fog. She flicked her finger, and the fog shot out and fell in front of Qiu Yan.

"This calming incense can calm the mind and soul. If the scholar is not talented and it is difficult for him to open his mind on his own, you can give it to him. Otherwise, let him practice the way of life alone to strengthen his body."

Qiu Yan took a deep breath, looked at the city god deeply, and after a little hesitation, he flicked his sleeves to collect the fog, and then saluted the city god silently.

"This City God is straightforward, but he is willing to spend money. He just thinks that my clone and I are causally involved, so he took out a cultivation method and revealed important information..."

Thinking in his heart, Qiu Yan suddenly felt his scalp tingling, and his heart was shocked, as if he was stared at by something, and even the white light on his body fluctuated slightly.

"As expected of a natural god, he has such a sensitive perception." The City God on the opposite side nodded.

………………

About half a cup of tea later.

In the Liu family courtyard, Qiu Yan's room flashed with light, and there was a book on the table. Next to the book was a scroll, and a figure slowly emerged on the painting.

Crash.

The quilt was lifted, and Qiu Yan's scholar clone sat up.

Just now, he had a few words with the City God of Yuanning and gained some benefits. The City God said everything he should say and did not keep him any longer. After saying goodbye, the original god left the temple and returned to his residence.

"Those monsters chased us so quickly."

Recalling the content of the conversation, Qiu Yan muttered and looked at his hands.

"However, I didn't expect that even the City God here couldn't find the difference between the original and the clone. From this, it seems that the hair is not simple at all. I have to study it carefully and explore the mystery in the future, but the most urgent task now is..."

Thinking in his heart, he got up from the bed, came to the table, and picked up the book.

"I don't know what is written in this book."

Thinking so, he turned the page.

The next moment, a green light shone from the book, but it was emitted from the rows of beautiful words on the pages.

The light shone on Qiu Yan's face and then dissipated.

Then, Qiu Yan showed a confused look on his face, and lines of words flashed in his eyes.

After a while, he came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and praised: "What a wonderful method, just this one time, the contents of the book were reflected in my mind and turned into memory, without any omissions! If I were to do it, it would be okay to use divine power to infuse other people's memories in person, but it would be impossible to attach it to a book."

Thinking about it, his eyes swept over the rows of beautiful words.

"This book should have been written not long ago, and it is even possible that the city god copied it personally and wrote it temporarily. In this way, it seems that she values ​​me, a natural god, not a little bit, and even the "mortals" around me have put so much effort."

From the words of the city god, it can be seen that the other party did not see the mystery of Qiu Yan's scholar's clone, and only thought that he was a mortal with a cause and effect connection. Even so, he still prepared such a booklet, which shows his carefulness.

"How can this be considered a generous treat..."

After thinking for a while, Qiu Yan had a plan in mind. He retracted his thoughts and focused his attention on the book again.

There were no less than thirty words written on the first page of the book, but the core content was the words "a brief description", indicating that this book was just an overview, general and not in-depth.

"Even if the words are general, my flesh and blood clone has no foundation for cultivation. It is still very helpful to get this book."

He raised his hand and turned another page, and immediately eight words appeared in front of him-

The way of nature is God, and the way of life is immortal.
