Chapter 791 Granting
Seven days later.
County government.
“Students meet their teachers!”
Gan Yu mingled among the children and saluted the magistrate who was wearing a crimson official robe.
Among the children who were with him, there were not only young children, but also teenagers like him, even middle-aged people, and even old people with premature hair.
Having a white head is a sign of fame, and it’s no lie!
The county magistrate's surname is Xu. He was born as a Jinshi. He has a face like a crown jade and three long strands of beard. He looks to be about thirty or forty years old. He has a majestic appearance and a very official appearance.
It only took two years for Xuzhi County to become a Jinshi in high school, and he was elected to Qingxi County and served as the ninth-rank chief registrar. Three years later, he was promoted to the county official Cao, followed by the county captain, county magistrate... and finally became the seventh-rank official. The post of county magistrate has lasted for more than ten years, and it can be said that all hardships have been overcome.
And in the Taoist court where there are many officials, the promotion speed is definitely fast. At least no one is stuck at every step, which is enough to show that there is a backing background behind him.
“Ahem…”
Xuzhixian looked a little pale and seemed to be ill. At this time, he raised his hand.
Gan Yu suddenly felt a gentle force coming from him, lifted himself up, and looked at the sickly Xu Zhixian, feeling a sense of awe in his heart.
“You are all well-educated scholars, and I am recruiting talents for the Taoist court this time...You must remember that you are loyal to the Taoist court. If you become an official in the future, you will be worthy of the people..."
Xuzhi County gave a few words of admonishment, looked at the expectant eyes of some people, and suddenly smiled: "That's all, judging from your appearance, you have been anxious for a long time, so I will hand it over to you personally..."
While he was speaking, the government officials around him bowed and left one after another.
In the hall, there seems to be the scent of incense lingering, hazy and somewhat mysterious.
Glancing out of the corner of his eye, Gan Yu suddenly felt that the appearance of Xu Zhixian seemed to be somewhat similar to the statue of the City God he saw when he went to the City God's Temple to pray. He couldn't help but lower his head quickly to cover up the shock in his eyes...
"rise!"
Xuzhi County didn't say much to the children and just made a seal with one hand.
In his body, a crimson-red statue of the 'Zheng Qingxi County City God' suddenly shone brightly.
A red light is like a bird, holding a talisman in its mouth and turning into spiritual light, rushing straight out of the sky.
"ah!"
Mighty as a mountain!
The children present were all pale and kneeling on the ground.
Then, a clear cry of a mandarin duck was heard, and above the head of Xuzhi County, the red divine power turned into the shape of a mandarin duck, surrounding a Taoist basket.
This Zhang Dao Rui is also red in color, as if it were made of beautiful jade. There is a line of divine inscriptions in it, which is astonishingly - 'The Prestige and Secret Rui of the Taishang Dao Court Alliance'!
Under the injection of red divine power, this Dao Rui instantly separated out some spots of light and turned into gray-white ‘Tai Shang Boy Ling Guan Rui’!
Compared to the boy's urn that Fang Xi had seen, these talismans obviously lacked a trace of charm, giving people a false feeling.
Xuzhi County looked serious: "The city **** Xu Xinji has brought talents for the country, and the emperor and the queen have learned from it!"
On his hand, a copper seal emerged, which was the official seal of the Zhengqipin County Magistrate!
Xuzhi County held the official seal with both hands, and there seemed to be another phantom of the City God's golden seal emerging from the void, blending into the official seal.
Snapped!
He stamped official seals on the bottoms of many boy urns.
The red divine power seemed to turn into ink mud, and then flickered on the Taoist drum.
Buzz!
With a roar, the children's baskets suddenly became majestic and disappeared into the eyes of all the children.
Gan Yu was shocked, and after a little meditation, he felt that there seemed to be an extra talisman in the sea of consciousness.
At the same time, he had taken spiritual substances and had already laid a good foundation. At this time, he could even feel that there were inexplicable ideas emerging in the void, which made him feel hungry and thirsty in his heart.
Unconsciously, he sat cross-legged and attracted a ray of spiritual energy from heaven and earth into his body.
“Introducing air into the body?”
Seeing this scene, Xu Zhixian couldn't help but nodded slightly: "It's really a good seed to be able to do this right when it's just being planted..."
What’s more important is that Gan Yu is young enough and still has time to work **** the imperial examination road.
As for those white-headed men, there is little hope...
After a while, all the children recovered from the strangeness, with a hint of joy on their faces.
The law of the Taoist court is strict, and the law of Taoism suppresses the spiritual energy of the world!
If you don’t have the secret of Taoism, even if you can learn some with difficulty, in the end it will be nothing more than the moon in the water or the flowers in the mirror.
But now, once you are taught the urn, you have entered the Tao in one step!
It’s equivalent to reaching the sky in one step!
Xu Zhixian coughed again, it seemed that the previous gift was a big burden for him. Seeing Gan Yu wake up, he said in a deep voice: "Give the boy the gift, and from then on he can draw on the wisdom of heaven and earth to strengthen his body. Even casting spells... This is the grace of the Taoist court. You must remember that if there are any unfaithful and unfilial people in the future, I will personally claim the soul and go through all the sufferings of purgatory..."
When he said this, his voice was so cold that Gan Yu couldn't help but feel excited.
I know in my heart that what this magistrate of Xu County said is true!
…
A mountain forest somewhere far away.
Fang Xi sat cross-legged, with Mei Changkong’s roasted hare and river fish in front of her...
Both prey were roasted until golden and fragrant, and placed on a dinner plate made of huge green leaves, with accompanying fruits beside them.
In a bamboo tube, there is boiled water. It’s pretty good to be able to do this in this mountainous place.
Mei Changkong was not here at this time, but went to look for food for himself.
Fang Xi opened her eyes and nodded with some satisfaction.
At the same time, it is recalling the scene where Gan Yu was enshrined just now.
“It turns out that this is how the Daolu is split from the upper-level Daolu?”
“What doesn’t…split out is just a fake with a superficial appearance!”
"The real key is to use the seal to ask for the witness and approval of heaven and earth..."
Silently thinking about the previous events, Fang Xi gained a better understanding of the operation of Shinto.
“With such layer-by-layer control, the emperor in the end can indeed deprive the officials below of their clerical duties with just one word, and even decide life and death, so that he can truly ‘talk about the constitution of heaven’!”
“What if there is no Taoism but only the priesthood?”
"Even...where did the priesthood between heaven and earth come from in the first place? Could it be that it was also split from a certain priesthood?"
Fang Xi felt that he seemed to have touched some of the deepest secrets of heaven...
…
The world of immortality.
Hengkong Island, Kyushu faction.
In the cave, Fang Xi was wearing a blue robe. This robe was as smooth as brocade and very breathable, with a large number of micro formations engraved on its surface.
This robe alone is comparable to the entire net worth of the cultivator.
For Fang Xi, such enjoyment was nothing more than ordinary. At this time, she was sitting in front of the desk with disheveled hair and a very lazy expression.
On the desk, there are six talismans placed side by side.
From the ninth-grade "Tai Shang Dao Ting Du Gong Zhi Ji" to the eighth grade "Tai Shang Dao Ting Beidou Secret", and even the day and night traveling **** priesthood, and even the most conspicuous "from the ninth grade Qingxi County Town God's Temple Reward and Punishment Court Wu Judge" '... At this moment, all the magic has been lost, just like ordinary talismans, lying quietly on the desk.
“Sure enough, the laws of heaven and earth are different, so it can’t be used immediately?”
Fang Xi murmured, picked up the Magistrate Wu's priesthood again, and began to observe it carefully.
Shinto talisman edicts are naturally far more valuable than Taoist imperial edicts.
This ninth-grade priesthood is even rarer than the eighth-grade Taoist priest, and even the divine inscriptions are several times more complicated and profound!
"After this period of observation, my way of talismans has steadily entered the seventh level..."
“After all, it will be easier to advance to the level of cultivating immortals and hundreds of arts after being promoted to fusion…”
Fang Xi murmured, picked up the priesthood of 'Qingxi County Town God's Temple Duty Tour Secretary', and entered it with his spiritual consciousness.
After this period of research, he finally made some discoveries.
At this time, with a thought, he went to the core of the priesthood through the divine inscriptions and obtained several divine spells.
For example, ‘Summoning Spirit Talisman’, ‘Heaven Seeing and Earth Hearing Technique’, ‘Wind Control Technique’, etc.
These are all divine arts. As long as you refine the priesthood of the God of Sunshine, it is equivalent to receiving an initiation, and you can learn it in an instant.
Not only that, as long as divine power is consumed, it can be cast instantly.
“Just need to make some modifications, collect incense and faith in the earthly fairy world, and it should be possible to reactivate the priesthood...”
Fang Xi pondered for a while: "It's just that most of the priests are earth-bound spirits... After they go beyond their own realm, their divine power is greatly reduced... which is a bit troublesome."
But this trouble is actually relatively simple to solve. You just need to carry a cave treasure with you and move a large number of believers into it.
Fang Xi spent so long in that Taoist world without discovering the existence of cave treasures. It seems that such cave treasures either do not exist or are extremely precious.
‘But this is normal. In a lower realm like the human world, the treasure of the cave is extremely rare...'
“As for carrying believers with you, this is just a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution... People from the Kyushu realm can also look into it, such as installing some high-power incense faith signal towers to extend the scope of the clergy field. ’
Technology is constantly moving forward.
Especially with a combined Taoist master, plus the Void Returning boss, and even a group of god-transforming elites, the current technology of the Kyushu Realm can completely crush the Kyushu Realm when there were only Yuanying monks.
“The Taoist altar is divided into two parts, and the priesthood may be the same...”
“Even the clergy in the world may eventually converge on that one person... who is the source of all gods!”
The more Fang Xi studied, the more he felt that the Emperor of Heaven was unfathomable.
At this time, he took up the priesthood of Judge Wu.
Although the Shinto talisman transformed by this priesthood has lost all its brilliance, it is still dazzling, as if it were carved from fine jade, and there are traces of red blood lines inside.
And when his spiritual thoughts entered the interior of this priesthood, in addition to some magical skills, there was actually more knowledge.
For example... how to collect people’s incense beliefs and refine ‘incense money’!
This money is the currency that flows between gods. It can replenish and transform divine power... and its value far exceeds that of gold and silver.
In addition, after becoming a god, you can also combine the divine inscriptions you have comprehended with your priesthood to sacrifice an object of divine authority.
This object can be a banner, a pagoda, a tripod...but the most common one is a seal!
“Generally speaking, it is difficult for gods of the ninth level to create such artifacts...Only when you reach the seventh level can you have greater confidence.”
