Chapter 59 The Incense in the World
“…it’s basically the case.”
Wu Qi talked about the origin and connection of the ghoul, which made everyone feel a little relieved.
What people are afraid of is coming and going without a trace, and what they are afraid of is that they are indescribable without knowing the origin.
But once the demon walks under the sun, appears in public, and appears, the mysterious silence has disappeared before. It is just a monster with a strange shape, and the panic and oppression brought to people will greatly fade.
Five ghouls stood in the yard like five arrested bandits. Their heads were drooping, their long hair was covered with faces, and their bodies emitted a pungent odor, which made several people cover their noses and mouths.
In the sun, their shadows were stretched out, their shoulders were steaming, and flies were buzzing and flying above their heads.
The cruel and cruel impression left before disappeared in an instant.
Wu Qi and Chen Gao sat under the eaves, each holding a bowl of sour plum soup and slowly drank it.
"Master Wu's move is indeed extraordinary."
Captain Cheng smiled and said, "Peng Lizheng, Litao Town is so lucky that he can actually ask the Taoist priest to take action."
Peng Shannan was a little worried: "Captain Cheng, I have a private matter to ask for advice."
He pulled Captain Cheng aside and glanced at the two young Taoist priests behind him.
The old man then lowered his voice and asked carefully: "I know that Master Wu was praised by the right prime minister, but I don't know that he is so powerful, and I don't know what the hell is?"
Captain Cheng laughed: "The monks of the three religions live in simplicity and often don't go down the mountain for ten years. People who go down the mountain are shocking..."
"Master Wu practiced at Fuyun Temple in Chengdu Prefecture and was very low-key on weekdays. He was in the East City with his senior brother Master Chen. He seemed to be selling bamboo at a stall, but in fact he was aware of the worldly world practice."
"However, Xu Senjun of the Jianyouwei recognized Master Wu's unique skills at first glance, so he visited the cottage three times and sincerely asked for advice. Master Wu was willing to take action."
"You are not a public servant, and you don't know many inside stories."
Captain Cheng's voice was ups and downs, and his hands and eyes cooperated, which was quite like a teahouse storyteller: "So far, there have been three demons and ghosts in Jiannan Road, the soul carriage and the horse gang case, the horse gang case, and the Sun Ghost case, all of which are solved by Master Wu."
Peng Shannan was surprised: "When the leader of the horse gang, Wang Meng, was it actually Master Wu who took action?"
"Shh."
Captain Cheng made a gesture: "This is nothing. Ji Zhan, a true monk of the Changdao Temple in Qingcheng Mountain, fought with Dao Master Wu in Mingdefang, Dongcheng City, and was defeated by Dao Master Wu."
As for the second half of the battle, Captain Cheng didn't care much about it. There were too many magic weapons among the monks. But in terms of swordsmanship, Ji Zhan lost.
Peng Shannan was shocked when he heard it.
In Jiannan Road, Qingcheng and Emei are well-deserved southwest heroes. Ji Zhan, a true disciple of Changdao Temple, is quite famous, but was defeated by Wu Dao's sword in the downtown area...
Master Wu is really hidden.
"So, I said Litao Town is lucky."
Captain Cheng glanced behind him, and Wu Qi looked as usual.
After confirming that the Taoist priest didn't mind, he said, "Do you think the Taoist priest cares about the little money you gave? It's just experience..."
"But this is serious for you. You want to let the world know that Master Wu eliminates demons and catches ghosts here, and has a lot of connection with Litao Town. You should not consider it before all kinds of demons and ghosts are taking action in the future? After all, demons and ghosts are also responsible for the treatment of people."
"So that's it! I understand."
"Do you really understand?"
"I understand, I need to promote this matter more."
"wrong."
Captain Cheng shook his finger: "You are right here, don't you understand this? You can't just talk about this casually. The rural theory is nothing more than a topic of discussion after dinner."
"I would like to ask Captain Cheng to teach me."
"I have a way to take care of the mind and nature of the whole city that I grew up in and express your gratitude and admiration..."
After listening, Lao Li held his beard with his forehand and kept saying it was wonderful.
"Of course, you should give money. This is the rule. The Taoist priest doesn't want it. That's the Taoist priest's noble character. If the Taoist priest wants it, that's natural. Do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand, thank you Captain Cheng. I will ask Captain Cheng to come to the town more often in the future, and you and I will get closer."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."
...
"Master, this is a five-tall silver reward, please accept it."
Lao Li was presenting five silvers with both hands.
"Thank you for being generous."
Chen Gao naturally took the purse and put it into his sleeve.
"I have a reluctant request."
Lao Li was looking at Wu Qi and said sincerely: "The Taoist priest has solved the disaster in the town in a moment. I want to invite everyone to see the Taoist priest off, at least remember the Taoist priest's appearance."
It turned out to be a simple farewell ceremony.
Wu Qi nodded: "It's okay, please keep everything simple."
He hesitated for a moment and said, "I have something to ask for, and I'm still asking for permission from the village."
Li Zheng hurriedly said, "The Taoist priest has something to ask for, and I, Litao Town, will definitely be satisfied with it with all our might."
...
"Two Taoist priests, two servants, please wait."
The inside was greeting the man who had been silent and silent: "Ci Sheng, go and ask everyone to come. Each courtyard needs a family member. Let them see that the ghoul has been detained by the Taoist priest, and let everyone remember the Taoist priest's kindness."
Ci Sheng let out a sound, turned around and ran away.
After a while, seventy or eighty people surrounded the door, basically all men. They were curious or expectant, and watched Wu Qi lead five ghouls out and walk out of the town step by step.
It was not until a row of ghouls left the intersection outside the town that they realized that the group of ghosts had left Litao Town since then, and then they began to shout and applaud.
Someone opened his voice and shouted: "Litao Town thanked Wu Dao, the chief of the great kindness!"
Others also shouted.
"Thank you, Chief Wu!"
"Thank you, Chief Wu!"
As the people in Litao Town shouted endlessly, there were still people beating drums and drums, and it was a mess.
Wu Qi looked back.
Whether they were asked by the inside or shouted in the crowd, at least at this moment, they were indeed quite happy.
After taking two more steps, Wu Qi found that there was a reaction in the Impermanence Diagram.
——Get forty-six people and gain forty-six years of cultivation.
Wu Qi was happy.
Although he was unable to nourish the peach trees with ghouls, he gained nearly half of the recognition from this group of townspeople and directly converted into incense.
With more than 210 years of cultivation, Wu Qi has taken another steadily step forward and reached 260 years of cultivation. The Foundation Establishment Cultivator without magic weapons is no longer enough to see in front of him.
This time, Wu Qi was sure that the way he chose may not be the strongest and fastest, but it is indeed the most suitable for him.
He has a clear conscience to take this incense.
Targeted subduing demons and demons can not only solve the troubles of the people, obtain certain rewards, but also receive incense. The court also encourages and approves.
Such a kill of three birds with one stone will bring extremely high returns and dignified.
Wu Qi was thinking, but Chen Gao gently patted him.
"Junior brother, junior brother, Captain Cheng calls you."
Wu Qi turned his head.
The smile on Cheng's face was a bit flattering: "Well, Taoist priest, Cheng has an unspeakable request... I wonder if the priest can hand over these five ghouls to Longyou County..."
"If it is a demon in Jiazhou, it still needs Shu County to deal with it. The adults above will definitely be scolded by the governor and influenced the exam..."
The Jiannan Road is located in Yizhou, also known as Chengdu Prefecture, and the prefecture is Shu County. The governor Chen Jiyou, who is not in charge of Zhu Xincheng, is in charge of Chengdu Prefecture. There is no doubt that Shu County is the benchmark and key position of Jiannan Road's county seat.
In other prefectures and counties, the local governments were unable to resolve the problem. Instead, Shu County handled it properly and arrested the criminals. This not only made the county magistrate and county magistrate lose face, but also affected the class exam.
The imperial examination system selects officials, and the course examination system evaluates all officials.
During the examination class, examination is to examine the implementation of laws and regulations of the court central government and local governments. The course refers to supervising the course in accordance with the administrative regulations of the court central government.
The Ministry of Personnel Examination Department is responsible for the examination courses. Regardless of the position, all officials will be promoted, rewards and punishments for each small exam every year, three years, and three years.
The left prime minister Fang Xuanling and the right prime minister Du Ruhui jointly drafted the examination charter. After being filled by the counselor Wei Zheng, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty approved it and clearly gave the 20-character standard.
"If you choose someone as an official, you only have talent. If you don't have talent, you won't use it even if you have talent. If you have talent, you won't give up even if you have talent."
An official is the most important thing to be a talent. Once he is considered a mediocre official, he will be difficult to be promoted.
...
Wu Qi thought for a moment: "Since that's the case, I'll leave it to Jiazhou."
Captain Cheng was overjoyed and bowed with his fists: "Thank you, Master Taoist, for your kindness!"
"Captain Cheng is a wonderful person with a good mind." Chen Gao smiled and said, "I think the captain will be promoted in the future."
"The Taoist priest was a joke."
Captain Cheng said self-deprecatingly: "We are engaged in a low-profile career, and the officers will reach the top of the captain, and the descendants of descendants cannot participate in the imperial examination. Every year, the county magistrate will give each constable ten taels of silver, and my captain is only two taels of silver more than ordinary constables. The daily arrest, travel and other expenses are all included."
"Captain Cheng should not look down on himself."
Wu Qi said seriously: "Thirty-six ways, you can reach the great road. Diligently and hard, the future Captain Cheng may be the famous golden-medal capture of the Tang Dynasty."
Captain Cheng clasped his fists: "Thank you, Taoist Master Ji Yan."
