Back to the early Tang Dynasty to be a fairy

Chapter 1419 The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty said that those who believe in everything from now on will be second-class people
Just when the envoys and ministers of Gaochang Kingdom traveled hundreds of miles and finally met their king Ju Wentai in Jiuquan, in the already captured Gaochang City, Datang, as the occupying army, also began to carefully monitor the population of Gaochang Kingdom. census.

boom!
A young man wearing a tight Taoist robe with a red tripod embroidered on the cuffs, holding a stack of various papers and other things, walked into a small courtyard on the side of the Gaochang Palace, looking annoyed. The thing in his hand hit the table heavily.

"Senior brother, I have searched all the information in Gaochang City, and I found this little bit, and most of them are records about road tax. I can't find anything like the population yellow book at all. This Ju How did Wen Tai become the king without even finding out how many people he has under his command?"

"It's really not his fault!"

After hearing the young man's words, another young Taoist priest who was sitting in front of a few desks and writing quickly raised his head, pushed the glasses on his face with his hand, and then replied unhurriedly.

"After all, the Western Regions are very chaotic. You see a lot of people living here today, but they may disappear tomorrow. You don't know whether they were ransacked by horse thieves or went to other countries as nomads, so these Most of the countries in the world can only roughly count the population of the few cities they can control, and Gaochang is no exception."

"It's disgusting. If I knew this, Brother Qingduan, you shouldn't have applied to come to the Western Regions!"

The young man from before said in an angry voice.

"With your cultivation and knowledge, even if you don't come to the Western Regions, you should be able to find a good Xuantan to be a great mage!"

"You may be right, Debi, but it's not what I want!"

After hearing the young man's words, the young Taoist priest in glasses shook his head immediately, then continued to write with his head down.

"Neither you nor I are the kind of amazing talent. Like the three little Dharma Masters, you can become a real person at a young age. In the future, you are destined to be a peerless arrogance of immortal seeds. In terms of opportunities, you are not as early as Zongta Senior Brother, and there is not much competition. As long as you are down-to-earth, you can have the establishment of an insider, and you only need to do what you are asked to do every day, and you can have a lot of trading points in your account.

In fact, for people like you and me with mediocre talents but mediocre opportunities, the biggest possibility in this life is to become a great mage in a certain mysterious altar.But the problem is..."

Having said that, the young Taoist raised his head with a firm expression.

"I just don't want to be reconciled to the fact that in this life I can only be like those seniors before the Danding Sect, busy practicing Taoism all my life, but in the end I can only reincarnate and start all over again!"

"Actually, reincarnation, I don't think it's a problem to start all over again!"

As soon as the young Taoist priest wearing glasses finished speaking, he saw the young man saying in doubt.

"After all, once you are born and you are familiar with the second time, with the experience of this life, you will definitely avoid a lot of detours when you practice in the next life. At that time, you will not say that you will become an immortal, but it will definitely be much better than this life. If we go on for a lifetime, sooner or later we will become Earth Immortals and truly live forever!"

"Ha ha!"

After hearing the young man's words, the young Taoist suddenly chuckled.

"De Bi, your thinking is too simple. Reincarnation is not as good as you think! Yes, the reincarnation qualification in the door can indeed guarantee that you will retain the memory of this life when you reincarnate, but it does not guarantee your talent in the next life. What’s the matter, what do you do if you can’t cultivate? Do you want to reincarnate? But you can’t even practice, how can you get enough trading points to buy the qualification for reincarnation?”

"..."

After hearing the words of the young Taoist priest wearing glasses, the young man was stunned.

"So from the very beginning, I never thought of betting on the afterlife!"

The young Taoist reached out and pushed his glasses, and said with a determined face.

"Since the talent is not enough, let's make time for it. As long as I can successfully obtain the permanent residence qualification of Yunzhong Xiandu, then time will be meaningless to me. If 30 years is not enough, it will be 50 years, and if 50 years is not enough, it will be 100 years." If not in 100 years, then in 1000 years, one day I, Luo Qingduan, will become an immortal, reborn, truly immortal!"

"But Senior Brother Qingduan..."

Hearing the bold words of the young Taoist priest, the young people on the side suddenly clicked their tongues.

"The one-year temporary residence permit in Yunzhong Xiandu is sky-high now. If the permanent residence permit is granted, it may not be enough to sell the two of us!"

"That's why I chose to come to the Western Regions!"

The Taoist priest with glasses pushed his glasses with his hand, and a cold light flashed across.

"Because the Taishi Bureau didn't intervene before, demons and ghosts are still very rampant now, which is even worse than in the Tang Dynasty more than ten years ago. But I have studied it carefully, and the current regulations on subduing demons in the gate There are no geographical restrictions here, so this is definitely a good place to score points.

In addition, although Gaochang Kingdom is not big, the transportation is convenient, and there are many people coming and going. Therefore, although there are not as many trading points in the missionary aspect as eliminating demons and ghosts, the advantage is that people who are not Taoist believers will always appear, which can be described as a steady stream... "

Having said that, the Taoist priest with glasses clenched his fist with confidence.

"De Bi, believe me, as long as the two of us can really make the mysterious altar stand out in Gaochang country, we dare not say that if we are too tall, we still can't get a trading point for ourselves to get a temporary residence qualification for 30 years in the fairy capital of Yunzhong. questionable!"

"really?"

After hearing the words of the Taoist priest with glasses, the young man's eyes lit up immediately.

"But senior brother Qingduan, there is no information or personnel in Gaochangguo, just the two of us, how can we make the Xuantan stand alive!"

"I have already made arrangements for this matter!"

Regarding the young man's question, the Taoist priest with glasses pushed his glasses with his hand, and a cold light flashed in an instant.

"Compared to you and me, some people care more about beliefs, so don't worry, De Bi, we will have materials and personnel in the Mysterious Altar..."

……

Boom boom boom!
After a loud knock on the door, the low door in front of me opened with a creak, revealing a man in simple linen clothes. A big man in armor.

"Don't be afraid, Jin Dalang, hurry up and salute the generals!"

Just when the man in linen was frightened, he heard a familiar voice from these big men in armor.

"These generals of the Tang Dynasty did not come to confiscate their homes, but to organize the households of the people. In other words, we will no longer be the people of the small countries in the Western Regions, but the real kingdom of heaven, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. This is a great thing!"

After hearing this sentence, the man in sackcloth suddenly turned his head and looked towards the place where the voice came from, only to see their neighbor next door, a slightly older and well-informed old man, Peng Deyu, standing in front of them. Behind the big man, he nodded to him with a happy face, signaling him to come out of the door.

Although I still don't understand what is the benefit of this registered account Qimin, but this man called Jin Dalang still obeyed the old man's words, walked out of the door, knelt down and kowtowed to these generals, Then he heard a strange voice coming from his ear.

"What's your name?"

Jin Dalang immediately replied honestly to these generals of the Tang Dynasty.

"If you go back to the general, someone is called Jin Dalang!"

"It's just what other people call you casually..."

After hearing Jin Dalang's words, a soldier holding a charcoal pencil frowned immediately, and then asked.

"What's your name, what is it?"

"Report to General..."

After hearing what the soldier said, the old man Peng Deyu hurriedly opened his mouth to distinguish.

"Jin Dalang's father is illiterate, so he didn't give him a name. He has been called Dalang since he was a child!"

"OK then!"

After hearing Peng Deyu's words, although the soldier showed displeasure, he did not get angry, but nodded, then raised his hand, wrote a few words on a notebook in his hand, and then asked road.

"How old are you?"

……

In this way, with the help of the old man Peng Deyu, Jin Dalang finally stumbled and filled in his personal information, when he heard the soldier continue to ask.

"What religion do you believe in?"

Because he already had previous experience in answering, Jin Dalang immediately answered honestly this time.

"A certain Buddhist..."

"No no no!"

Before Jin Dalang finished speaking, he saw that Peng Deyu on the side had waved his hand without hesitation, directly denying Jin Dalang's words, and then said to the soldiers.

"Generals, Jin Dalang's father believes in Buddhism, so he took him to kowtow in the monk's temple since he was a child. But in fact, this kid doesn't even know what a monk does. He just joins in the fun. He doesn't believe in any religion. !"

"Um...really?"

After hearing Peng Deyu's words, the soldier holding a charcoal pencil looked at him suspiciously.

"Peng Jiachang, you'd better not lie, otherwise, if you really find out that this Jin Dalang is secretly worshiping Buddha at home, all the people in your ten households will be downgraded!"

"Understood! I understand!"

After hearing what the soldier said, Peng Deyu immediately nodded and said humbly.

"Please rest assured, generals, Jin Dalang is so poor, how can he have the money to give joy to the monastery? Please rest assured, he is definitely not the kind of person who believes in Buddhism!"

"That's good!"

After hearing Peng Deyu's assurance, the soldier holding the charcoal pen finally nodded, and then scribbled a few lines on the notebook in his hand before taking it out of his pocket on the other side. After marking a few numbers on a small white wooden signboard with a charcoal pen in his hand, he handed it to Peng Deyu and gave instructions.

"This is your brand name. Tomorrow morning, take the card and go to the left side of the palace to change the ID cards of your family members. Remember... everyone must come, women are no exception, understand? "

……

"Uncle Peng!"

Jin Dalang looked at the backs of those soldiers leaving, turned his head and said to Peng Deyu suspiciously.

"A certain one clearly believes in Buddhism, why do you say not?"

"nonsense!"

After hearing Jin Dalang's words, he saw that Peng Deyu had already glared at him fiercely.

"The emperor of the Tang Dynasty said that in the future, except for Taoists, everyone who believes in everything will be second-class people. Not only will we have to pay twice as much tax, but we will also have to do twice as much corvee. You can't afford it." If you don't, all nine of our families have to help you!"
