God Catch starts with adding points

I don't know which genius dug out this law from the pile of old papers, and used this law to blackmail, so that Jinyi Weisheren and his group never paid for their meals.

"Too wicked." Lu Bai took a sip of his wine and shook his head.

However, he felt that he had been educated, and if he encountered bad people or villains in the future, and he didn't have any evidence at hand, he could completely use this rule to pick up the skin of the villain.

When he was talking, there was no one to talk to, so he glanced to the side, and saw that Gu Qinghuan fell into a deep sleep on the clean bed.

Even if she was on a boat, her body couldn't take it anymore after running around for days.

Lu Bai stood up, went to the bed and covered Gu Qinghuan with a quilt, then walked to the window, closed the window, but not tightly, but staggered a gap, although this silver charcoal is high-quality charcoal, but Lu Bai still has to be careful poisoned by carbon monoxide.

He staggered a gap and stuck it with something to make sure it wouldn't close, took a sip of wine, and was about to turn around and go back to the table to sort out the things with the wine as a companion, when Lu Bai suddenly thought - there was something in the middle of the yard .

As a practitioner of the Sky Breaker Realm, Lu Bai's thought power is expanding almost all the time, and it extends so far that it is difficult to hide any disturbances in the front and rear yards from his thought power.

However, he didn't notice the thing that came in until he reached the backyard.

Lu Bai glanced around the yard through the window, but there was no one in the yard, but Lu Bai's thoughts clearly told him that something was walking in the yard.

Wait until this thing walks to a room.The door of the room was originally staggered to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, but after the door opened flickeringly, Lu Bai knew that there was something in the yard.

It was clearly an invisible thing—a ghost.

Lu Bai immediately took out the eye veil he had drawn in the lottery, put it on his left eye, and then swept into the yard, and suddenly a black-faced man with a beard appeared, holding a long sword in his hand In Lu Bai's vision.

He was sneaky, and from time to time he would poke his head in front of the window of the room, or take a breath, and slowly open the door to check the people inside. Sometimes when he really had no choice, he would go through the wall and enter the room.

He was looking for something and couldn't find it.

After a while, the man found Lu Bai's room. He saw a crack in the window, so he stood in front of the window and blew gently.

Squeak!

The window was opened, but before he could see the scene in the room, he saw a person wearing a black veil, standing in front of him like a one-eyed partition wall, with a cold light in his eyes.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!" The big man was startled, "Ghost!"

He turned around to run away, but after five or six steps, he stopped, "Oh, no, I'm a ghost, I'm still a city god, I'm in charge of ghosts!"

Speaking of this, the big man became more courageous, and he turned around and asked Lu Bai, "Who are you?"

Lu Bai broke out of the sky and stood in front of him, scaring the man who claimed to be the City God back three or four steps, "Breaking, breaking the sky! What are you doing? Don't come here. I tell you, I'm dead too!" Can no longer—"

Just as he was talking, Chenghuang saw the shadow under Lu Bai's feet, "Hey, are you human?"

Lu Bai didn't speak, but walked around him, "Are you the city god? Tsk tsk tsk, there really is such a thing as a city god in this world?"

The City God was not happy, "What are you talking about? What is a thing? Let me tell you, I am a city god who is dignified and dignified. I have a position established by the imperial court. It is not a thing!"

Lu Bai was puzzled, "Is the imperial court organized?"

He understands the meaning of this, he is equivalent to a civil servant, but this imperial court——

Lu Bai was curious, "Which imperial court gave you the establishment?"

Is it the heaven of heaven?

"Which court is there, and which court owns this city? Of course I belong to the establishment of the Southern Dynasty." The city god said angrily, and then he asked Lu Bai, "You, you can actually see me?"

Lu Bai asked back, "As a master of breaking the sky, I can't see you?"

Chenghuang obviously had never been a master of breaking the sky, he thought for a while, "What you said makes sense."

But he went on to say: "I tell you, don't hinder me from performing official duties, the whole court is standing behind me."

Lu Bai nodded, "Yes, yes, I know. From this point of view, I am also standing behind you."

Lu Bai took out a Jinyiwei waist badge from his body, "I am Jinyiwei Qianhu, and I have just been promoted to the governor of Nanzhen Fusi. Tell me, who is the senior official between us?"

"Uh——" Chenghuang was stunned, and helplessly lowered his hand, "Chenghuang has seen Master Jin Yiwei."

Lu Bai stopped talking.

What he said was not a rhetorical question, but an interrogative sentence, and now he knew whose official position it was.

"Grandma's." Lu Bai was very surprised in his heart, he never imagined that he, the governor of the Nanzhen governor, had a higher official rank than Jin Yiwei, not to mention that he was still above the city god.

So, he asked curiously: "You mean, almost all the city gods are appointed by the imperial court?"

Chenghuang nodded, "Of course."

"Not the sky?" Lu Bai pointed to the starry sky above his head.

The City God shook his head, and he said: "Your Excellency, you don't know something. The Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, and all the officials in the sky belong to the Heaven. All the officials on the earth, no matter whether they are humans, demons or ghosts, as long as they want to ascend, they belong to the Son of Heaven."

Lu Bai was taken aback again.

When he came to Beijing this time, there would be a lot of fighting, so Gu Qinghuan told him a lot of knowledge about official institutions and officials. Although Lu Bai couldn't say that he knew everything in detail, it was still possible to understand a little superficially. However, even if Lu Bai After searching for nothing, I still didn't expect that organization to appoint a ghost as an official.

He asked curiously, "You official, who appointed you?"

The Chenghuang laughed, "Why, do you want to buy an official when you die? Let me tell you, this City God's official may not be underestimated, but the silver is quite expensive—ahem—"

Chenghuang felt that he had said too much, so he answered Lu Bai's question with care and respect: "Peach Blossom View, the national teacher."

Chapter 3 and five of Peach Blossom Fairy

Peach Blossom View!

Lu Bai knows this department, no, the Taoist temple.

When he knew that there are schools of practice in this world, Lu Bai has always been curious about one thing, that is, in this world, there are both Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. All come from Confucianism, the imperial examinations in the Southern Dynasties, ruling the country with filial piety, etc., are all taken from Confucianism. Although Confucianism is not there, it is everywhere.

And Taoism——

This is a bit mysterious, it is not among the eight major sects, but belongs to the small sect that is not popular.

Lu Bai has always been puzzled.

Finally, during the itinerary, when Gu Qinghuan told Lu Bai about the forces in the capital, he mentioned the Peach Blossom Temple, and by the way, told Lu Bai about the whole decline of Taoism.

In fact, as early as when the Son of Heaven created the dynasty, Taoism flourished for a while, and together with Confucianism, it was the two major spiritual forces of the dynasty.According to legend, the Son of Heaven of this Dynasty believed in Taoism, and with the help of Taoism, he founded this dynasty, became Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, and fulfilled the important task of broadcasting the blessings and merits of the Emperor of Heaven as the Son of Heaven.

The contribution of Taoism is indisputable, and the status of Taoism has risen. In the first 200 years of this dynasty, it was the best among all religions. At one time, a Taoist sect was named the state religion, and the master of the temple was named the state teacher. This state religion is Taohuaguan.

When Lu Bai first heard about Peach Blossom Temple, he thought it was very strange. The name didn’t sound like a Taoist name, but it has something to do with it. The most intuitive meaning is that Peach Blossom is the symbol of righteousness in heaven and earth in Taoist classics. flower.This is the reason why Taoists use mahogany swords to drive out ghosts and kill demons.

The prosperity of Peach Blossom Temple made it overwhelm many Taoist sects, and almost became synonymous with Taoism at that time. It almost rubbed the current eight major sects into the ground, even the Buddhist schools of the Northern Dynasty——

The rise of Buddhism coincided with the prosperity of Taoism.Several major disciples of the Buddha at that time, and now four monks who are regarded as the patriarch by the Buddhist disciples of the Northern Dynasties, sat and played chess with the master of Peach Blossom Temple in Beiman Mountain, using the sky as a chessboard and the stars as chess pieces.

They stirred up the wind and clouds with their vertical fingers, shouted and shouted with lightning and thunder, and it lasted for ninety-nine and eighty-one days. In the end, the peach blossom temple master left a peach blossom formation on the chessboard and left laughing. The four patriarchs' hearts were damaged.

These four Patriarchs of the Shi family were all geniuses and laid the foundation of the Shi family. However, even if they joined forces, they could not match the master of Taohua Temple, which shows the prosperity of Taohua Temple at that time.

As the so-called prosperity must decline, Taoism’s defeat of the four patriarchs of the Shi family makes people still talk about it now, but it has also become the swan song of Taoism-after another 30 years of prosperity, Taoism is not as good as the road to decline.

This story has to start with Taohua Guanzhu, who defeated the four patriarchs of the Shi family.

Not long after defeating the fourth patriarch of the Shi family, the Peach Blossom Viewer ascended in the daytime, and four immortals opened the gate of heaven to greet him.However, in the past 50 years, an ancestor of the Eight Great Sects ascended to the sky, and the heavenly gate that greeted him just opened, and the first person who walked out from the inside, passing the ancestor, was not to welcome the ancestor Daotong and the immortal, but to greet him. It is Peach Blossom Fairy.

"Peach--"

"Peach--"

Patriarch and Peach Blossom Fairy spoke in unison, and the voice echoed in the sky.

Peach Blossom Fairy didn't bother to utter one more word, and saw him stepping on the flying sword, whistling like a shooting star, reaching the sky in an instant, every time the shadow fell, there were peach blossoms blooming, and when everyone on the ground looked up, faintly Joyo can also smell the fragrance of peach blossoms.

However, he escaped too fast, not as fast as a flying knife.

This flying knife was originally engraved on the fairy gate, and it was usually a talisman. It was recorded in the classics of various schools of practice on the road, and people generally believed that it was a decoration.

However, after Peach Blossom Fairy fled to the horizon in the blink of an eye, a knife appeared in this decoration, and the light of the knife flashed. The sky fell, dyeing half of the sky red, turning noon into the setting sun.

The dignified Peach Blossom Fairy, even after 50 years away, is still talked about by people.

He actually died.

Kill with one blow!

Through Gu Qinghuan's narration, Lu Bai could also feel the astonishment, astonishment and terror of the ordinary people who watched the immortals ascend in the daytime.

Everything on the earth was silent for a while.

Let Peach Blossom Fairy's flesh and blood drizzle at the end of his field of vision, forming a curtain like a rain of blood.

Just when the sound of white clouds curling and rolling between heaven and earth was clearly audible, a white and fat fairy came out from the fairy gate and shouted: "Peach Blossom Immortal stealing flat peaches is an unforgivable crime. It is an unforgivable crime to escape from the fairy world." , Specially issued a killing ring, as a warning to those who come after!"

After all, the chubby fairy went back.

Then, the Taoist boy and the fairy came out of the gate to welcome the ignorant ancestor. When the gate was closed, all the people on the ground came back to their senses and suddenly realized one thing: the Peach Blossom Temple will suffer.

In fact, not only Taohua Temple will suffer, but the whole Taoism will suffer.

Ever since the immortal gate cut off the Peach Blossom Immortal, the entire Taoist sect has declined, and Ascension bears the brunt of the brunt. The momentarily magnificent Peach Blossom View, in the following 100 years, no one ascended again.

Correspondingly, the ascension of immortals from the Eight Great Schools has increased significantly.

Then, when the Shi family rose and the imperial power went downhill, the Peach Blossom Temple also went downhill, and the number of disciples who practiced under the Taoist sect decreased sharply; because in the eyes of the common people, the Taoist sect lost the favor of the gods, the pilgrims of the Taoist sect, and the disciples of the patriarchs of the Taoist sect. The number of believers has also decreased sharply, which hastened the decline of the Taoist sect.

However, as the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.Lu Bai felt that even if the Daoist sect, as a prosperous sect, lost the favor of the gods, it would not fall to the point where it did not belong to the eight major sects.

The fact is also the same. The above-mentioned decrease in pilgrims and believers, although hurting the muscles and bones, will not push the Taoism into the abyss in an instant, and it is the Taoism itself that really pushes the Taoism into the abyss.

Strictly speaking, Taohuaguan, who is the leader of Taoism in the world, kicked the Taoism back into the coffin—they split.The reason for the split is simple. Peach Blossom Temple has a different understanding of the word Peach Blossom Fairy uttered when he escaped from the fairy gate. The apprentices and grandchildren of the fairy think that Taohuaxian said "escape".

These two different understandings can be said to have very different meanings and are well-known, but in the final analysis, there is a faction that does not believe in Peach Blossom Fairy, thinks Peach Blossom Fairy is a thief, and has implicated Taoist sects. These people all have resentment against Peach Blossom Fairy , wanting to stigmatize the Peach Blossom Fairy, and then let the gods return to the Peach Blossom Temple; the other faction believes in the Peach Blossom Fairy, thinking that his "escape" has a good name.

This is a question of the character of Taohuaxian, and it is also related to the future ascension. The two factions of the two sides quarreled over this, and even fought violently, drawing their swords at each other if they disagreed.In the end, the two sects could no longer be compatible, and the disciples of Peach Blossom Immortal left Peach Blossom Temple and set up another mountain gate, named Peach Blossom Temple.

The Taoist sect was already in decline, internal conflicts made it worse, and the split completely nailed the coffin for the peach blossom temple, so that the peach blossom temple, which was in full bloom for a while, pulled the whole Taoist sect down to the bottom of the valley, and became an unpopular force in the current practice world.

The disciples of Peach Blossom Immortal set up their own Peach Blossom Temple, and never cared about worldly affairs.

The strange thing is that although Taohuaguan's vitality has been greatly injured and it is not as good as before, it has never quit the state religion, and the previous temple masters are still appointed as national teachers by the emperor.

Lu Bai didn't know why at the time, but now that the city god said so, could it be that the imperial teacher has the right to canonize the city god, so he is still being retained by the court for the time being?

Lu Bai was thoughtful, and asked, "So, if I want to buy an official after I die, I still have to give money to the Peach Blossom Temple?"

"Yes!" Cheng Huang nodded, and then shook his head, "No, why don't you give me money, my official is aboveboard, and I was admitted in a dignified way."

"is it?"

Lu Bai didn't believe it, he just slipped his tongue, "Then how can I be an official in an upright manner?"

The city god came to his senses, and he pointed his fingers and said, "First, you must accumulate virtue and do good deeds to leave a good reputation in the county; second, someone must build an ancestral hall for you after you die, enshrine you, and give you incense; You have to be talented, let me tell you, there is an exam to be a city god, so go to the Peach Blossom Temple in the capital to take the exam."

Of course, the most important fourth point is to have money. If there is more money, the previous conditions may not be the conditions. However, about this point, the City God did not say, and the fool told people that his official was bought.

After listening to the three conditions that Chenghuang said, Lu Bai thought about it, and he met the first two, but he was not close to the third, and he had to work hard in the future.

Then again, "Why haven't I seen the City God in our corner?" Lu Bai asked.

Although Yancheng is a border city, it has all kinds of temples. It stands to reason that if there is a city god, it should have appeared during the last plague, and it would be better not to let him wipe his ass alone.

"Ahem, what——" Chenghuang couldn't explain it for a while, after all, he was willing to use real money to buy an official for a dead person. There are still a few such people, especially after becoming a city god, they cannot be reincarnated in a short time Well, presumably very few people are willing to pay this money, which has led to a shortage of city gods.

In addition, the Peach Blossom Temple has weakened, and the power of the Taoist sect has also weakened, which means that the backing behind the City God is no longer good. As a means of restraint, many ghosts do not buy Chenghuang's face, and the shortage of Chenghuang becomes more and more.

In a nutshell, with the decline of Peach Blossom Temple, although the national teacher still has the right to appoint city gods, he can no longer control all the city god temples in the dynasty, let alone start a business of selling officials.

The city god spent a long time with that, and finally found a lame reason, "All the city gods in the country must be appointed by the Taohua temple master. It is reasonable for the Taohua temple master to forget for a while, or you can't find a suitable city god candidate for your city."

Lu Bai thought about it, and it made sense.

Although he felt that the main reason was that many ghosts could not send money.

After finding out the other party's identity, Lu Bai asked, "As a city god, what are you doing here?"

The Chenghuang righteously said: "My lord, someone sued the Jinyi guard here for committing crimes, killing innocent people indiscriminately, and ordered his subordinates to beat the suffering master's mother to death. The suffering master sued at the City God's Temple. I am here to seduce this guy's soul to interrogate him!"

Lu Bai was surprised, this City God can do it.

However, "Why didn't you come before?" Lu Bai asked.

Could it be that he just caught Jinyiwei Sheren on his side, and with the hard evidence, he got the news and came here to share the merits, or he was standing on the side of Jinyiwei Sheren, and wanted to use this to get Jinyiwei Shehuner Walk.After he left, throw Jin Yi Wei She Ren Hun'er into his body to revive him.

However, the answer is very simple, "I have never sued anyone in the Temple of the City God before." The City God said.

Lu Bai was surprised, "Why didn't anyone go to Chenghuang Temple to complain?"

This Jinyi Weishe has been doing evil for many days. If the Town God's Temple is really useful, someone should have sued him long ago.
