The Rise of Otaku

Chapter 12 The Old Immortal Crane

Finally, all the requirements for summoning the old immortal crane(bird) was gathered in full. This was truly not an easy quest. Especially the ten small cards. It could be said that each one of them was covered with his blood and tears. Even Zhou Yu himself was also surprised that he could survive the brutal beatings to the end. Because he knew that he was not a persevering man, especially when there were pains involved.

The old dragon king was also very happy. Since the cormorant fisherman, another new member would join the village soon. It seemed like it would not be long for the village to prosper.

Still the old place, and the old scene. On the stage, the Yin Yang fish once again started to rotate. After the light, a red-crowned crane who dressed in the Taoist rope, held a fly-whisk, appearing before them.

With divine poise and sagelike features, the old immortal crane made two steps elegantly while waving its fly-whisk, and said, “this place is not bad, please make a Taoist temple for me. I’ll settle here from now on.”

The Temple Of The Three Pure Ones requirements: Phoebe zhennan x 20, Agarwood x 20, regular building stone x 60... There was some other stuff as well. All of them combine together was much more expensive than the house that he built for the cormorant fisherman. It was not something that he could build just using a pot plant.

Luckily, he had already gathered enough wooden material, and there were enough regular stones in the storage room, all of which came from the gashapon machine.

He asked the beaver to work on the temple in his storage room, in case of He Yuanyuan, who occasionally came to visit him, saw it. Although she would not be able to see the beaver, seeing a pile of wood timber suddenly turned into a Taoist temple by itself, would also be very creepy.

The storage room was also a great thing. Recently, he had been keeping throwing materials inside, from the real world’s perspective, it should have been fulled up. But strangely, it seemed like it was always able to store more material inside.

It took beaver two days to finally complete the temple. Taking it out from the storage room, Zhou Yu wanted to have a better look.

It was truly a magnificent building.

The Palace Of The Three Pure Ones was the main building, there were two other small palaces, one on each side behind the main building. Looking through the main door of the palace, Zhou Yu was even able to see the wooden status of the three pure ones sitting in the center of the main palace.

The exquisite miniature palace was lavishly decorated with painted ridges, carved beams, and meticulously wooden window lattices. It was embedded on top of a one-meter tall stone platform that was made of regular stones as if they were fused together. There were also small stairs coiling around the platform from the bottom to the top. Overall, the whole thing looked like a beautiful palace sitting on a tall cliff.

Zhou Yu didn’t know why he felt like the whole thing looked very heavy from the first look. However, he could easily lift it up, as if its inside was empty.

However, as he lowered his head, it instantly fell to the ground and he couldn’t even move the entire thing an inch.

Luckily, it didn’t land on his feet.

Having placed the temple scale model inside his yard, Zhou Yu instantly felt like as if there was a real temple inside his yard. It would be even more like it if he lit incense in the big tripod incense burner in the center of the square before the main palace.

Looking it from left and right, it was perfect no matter from which angle. The beaver was truly a god level carpenter. It was just that his fee was too expensive. He used up the Moe Coins that he had saved recently, again.

After a while, He Yuanyuan and Zhou Shuyu those two girls came to visit him again. They were not able to move their eyes away from the temple after they saw it. They were constantly using their phones to take photos of it while constantly praising how beautiful it was.

“So pretty! Brother Yu, you are so good at the craftsmanship!”

“Brother Yu, I have already told that that you should give up writing. Just selling those pot plants and miniature buildings will make you rich!”

Zhou Yu didn’t know that Zhou Shuyu would like money that much. Every time when she came over she would always want to ask Zhou Yu to open an online shop with her. She said that she would help Zhou Yu to manage the shop, all he needed to do was to produce those products.

It was a shame that Zhou Yu was not interested in her business proposal. Clearly, he could earn a lot of money, but he preferred to write some stories. It made Zhou Shuyu extremely frustrated. Looking at the building again, Zhou Shuyu gauged that it was definitely worth several thousand Chinese Yuan.

Speaking of the online shop, Zhou Shuyu had actually already opened one when she was still in high school. She often sold some village products online. She also didn’t earn much money from it, just some extra pocket money. Now that she discovered a great business opportunity, it was understandable that she couldn’t control herself.

Alas, what she got this time, was again another head shake. Seeing Zhou Yu rejected her proposal once again, Zhou Shuyu couldn’t do anything but take a few more photos frustratingly.

‘This is outrageous. If I have those products. Not only am I able to make money from it, but it can also increase my online store’s fame.’

But this wouldn’t make Zhou Shuyu give up. After all, she had been rejected so many times. She was already immune to it.

She didn’t know much about the pot plants, and how much were they worth, so recently, she had been doing some research online, asking other people how much Brother Yu’s plants would be worth.

But Zhou Yu didn’t know what Zhou Shuyu was planning. What made he felt headaches at the moment was the idol flower.

Since the completion of the Taoist temple and after the old immortal crane settled down. The curse was also removed from the idol flower. However, what made Zhou Yu want to cry was that the old immortal crane asked for money before removing the curse. Clearly, this guy was living in the temple that had been built using his money. Did he not even feel shame when asking for money!

Anyway, the little idol, who had been sleeping for quite some time, was finally able to get rid of the curse. He slowly stretched and made a long yawn while rubbing his eyes. When he finally opened his eyes and looked at Zhou Yu, a smile immediately appeared on his face. He quickly flew towards Zhou Yu and said.

“Daddy, daddy!”

‘Fuck! Unexpected fatherhood!(1)’

At this moment, Zhou Yu didn’t know what kind of facial expressions he should use to face this cute little life. Actually, if he needed to choose, he would rather choose a daughter, not a son, especially not a son that looked this beautiful...

However, he couldn’t change it.

Reluctantly accepting his fate, he checked the status of the little idol:

Li Weinian – fostering period,

Attributes: ??,

Skill: ???,

Mood: happy.

It seemed like he also needed to be a nanny for some time.

......

Little Niannian soon became familiar with the new environment. He also met with other villagers of the ACG world, such as the old dragon king. However, he was more interested in two girls. Lying prone on the head of He Yuanyuan, while looking at Zhou Shuyu, who was taking the photos of camellia, he asked, “Daddy, daddy, which one is mommy?’

“Puff! Cough, cough...” Zhou Yu was almost choked by his own saliva. Luckily, those two people couldn’t hear it. Otherwise, he couldn’t imagine what kind of punishment he would receive from those two girls.

Quickly asking him to get down and sit on his shoulder, he planned to teach him some manners after the girls left, in case of him saying something inappropriate in the future.

Seeing Zhou Yu’s face was twisted as if he was constipated, He Yuanyuan mistook that he was not satisfied with the miniature temple. She couldn’t help but admire that Zhou Yu had such high artistic standard, despite that he was still very young, and the most importantly unemployed.

Having stayed in the yard for a while, Zhou Shuyu finally took enough photos. She left happily with He Yuanyuan and planned to upload the photos she took to the internet. He Yuanyuan only felt that those pot plants were pretty, but He Shuyu thought that it was a great business opportunity.

However, all Zhou Yu thought right now, was how to raise an idol.

...note...

In China, Wearing the legendary green hat or Unexpected fatherhood often means that one’s girlfriend is pregnant with someone else’s kid.
