I have a book of ghosts and gods

Chapter 987 Talent (Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass)

Jiang Zhou looked at Gao Di speechlessly.

Unexpectedly, he could also personally experience one of the N's laws of TV dramas: eavesdropping on the corner of the wall is bound to be discovered.

Gao Ji scratched his messy hair in embarrassment.

Jiang Zhou suddenly said, "Hey, don't move."

Gao Di was taken aback: "What?"

At this time, there was a sound of clothes fluttering in the room, and at the same time there was a flash of lightning, followed by a sudden thunder.

Two thunderbolts as thick as little fingers have been shot down from the top of their heads.

Jiang Zhou's feet slipped instantly, and he leaned back.

Two thunderbolts fell.

Gao Ji still kept scratching his head, but his long hair and beard were all erected by the electric shock, like a sea urchin.

His whole body, head and face were pitch black, except for the whites of his eyes.

He stared straight at Jiang Zhou who was leaning back.

Jiang Zhou took a step back: "Okay, you can move now."

"..."

"who!"

The wind rang, and the people in the house finally ran out.

The young Taoist directly smashed into the two doors, flew out, and landed in the courtyard, blocking the retreat of the two. He was still holding a jade tablet in his hand, and there was a faint flash of lightning on it.

Glancing at Jiang Zhou and the two, he said sharply:

"Who are you? How dare you spy on me!"

"Real?"

Jiang Zhou laughed, and didn't intend to talk to him more, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed it with five fingers.

Xiantian grabbed the Taoist in his hands in one go.

The young Taoist's expression changed drastically when Jiang Zhou probed his hand, but there was no room for resistance.

He felt that the void around him seemed to be solidified, and he was firmly embedded in it, unable to move.

Seeing such supernatural powers, with his short-sightedness, he also knew that he would meet a formidable expert.

Even in the mansion, I am afraid that only those real real people of more than three generations have such means.

"Dangdang!"

There was a soft sound, but the middle-aged man in the room realized that something was wrong, and wanted to take advantage of the murderer's surprise and leave secretly, but accidentally knocked over a vase.

This is just a mortal, and Jiang Zhou just moved his fingertips to capture him.

Throw it to the ground together with the young Taoist priest.

"Really, please forgive me!"

"The Immortal Elder has orders, Xiaodao must obey, and he will never dare to disobey!"

The young Taoist priest lost his restraint, but he didn't dare to show any dissent at all.

He knew that in front of such an expert, he had no chance at all.

Decisively surrender and beg for mercy.

"You can bend and stretch."

Jiang Zhou smiled and said, "I ask you, is this severe drought related to you?"

Just now when they heard the two talking in the room, they probably understood what was going on.

The "kneeling incense" that I saw before turned out to be a dirty trick of the rich and powerful in Yuyang County.

In the name of praying for rain during the severe drought, the people were tricked into kneeling to offer incense.

This kneeling incense also has rules.

Generally speaking, you have to kneel for ten and a half months each time.

The people who were selected to kneel before the incense were divided into groups by the government according to squares and villages, and they took turns to kneel in front of the incense.

Only when the people are sincere can the incense be sent to the sky for the so-called Grandpa Lei to enjoy.

In order to reflect the majesty of Grandpa Lei, he cannot kneel in vain.

While kneeling on the incense, as long as there is even the slightest mistake, it will be punished.

How to punish?
It is also simple.

Spend some money to buy lamp oil and incense, and ask the immortal master to present Grandpa Lei Gong to plead guilty.

However, this lamp oil incense is not a cheap thing.

Most of those ordinary people only have a few mouthfuls of food during the Chinese New Year on weekdays, and they can replace it with lamp oil and incense, and worship the gods.

Nothing more.

What if I don't have money?
Trade people and land.

Let me talk about this first.

County officials, dignitaries and gentry also have to share the suffering with the people.

Of course, the gentlemen are busy with their affairs and running around for the livelihood of the people, so naturally they can't waste all their time on it.

I had to ask someone to kneel on my behalf.

This generation of kneeling people can't be casual anymore, they must be members of their own family.

Do you want to kneel down for the old men to pay for lamp oil and incense?
Then you have to sell yourself to the old men first, and become the "own people" of the old men.

Let's talk about land exchange.

That doesn't need to be elaborated, just use your own land to exchange money for the rich and powerful.

No one thought there was anything wrong with that either.

After all, the old men also gave money seriously, and the money was big.

The purchase of censers, altars, lamp oil and incense, and three animals, melons and fruits, are all paid by the masters.

Jiang Zhou can only say one thing: talent!
The money of the tyrants will be returned in full, and the money of the common people will be divided.

These people really eat people without spitting out their bones.

Every year there are all kinds of tricks.

"Praying for rain" as he saw it was just one of them.

Normally, they live in grain villages, but in disaster years, the price of grain is raised, and the people have no food to eat, so they start various operations.

The copper coins that were finally saved all flowed back to the hands of the powerful, not to mention, the few acres of Susukida, including the people, could not withstand the various means of the powerful, and all belonged to the powerful family.

I don't know if it's like this in Yuyang County, or if it's like this everywhere in Tang Dynasty?
"Ouch!"

While Jiang Zhou's thoughts were turning, the little Taoist priest had already shouted his grievances: "Mystery leader, how can Xiaodao have such abilities?"

"Droughts and floods in this day can be counted. Even if it is raining, how much should fall is an order from Grandpa Jade Emperor of Heaven. As much as you say, you can't miss a single drop!"

"Let's not talk about small ways, even True Monarch Lei Bu and Dragon King of the Four Seas, that can't be changed!"

Jiang Zhou was noncommittal, and asked again: "Which family are you from? Your dealings with these people were instigated by your master?"

When asked about this, the young Taoist priest, who was originally flustered and afraid, raised his head habitually, showing a bit of self-confidence, and seemed not to be so afraid: "The Xiaodao is the outer disciple of the Shenleiyu Mansion in Chang'an City."

He peeked at Jiang Zhou out of the corner of his eyes, as if he wanted to see the shocked and frightened look on his face, but Jiang Zhou's reaction disappointed him.

He murmured in his heart, could this kid come from the mountains?Don't know the prestige of the Divine Thunder Jade Mansion?
That's the eight scriptures, the legitimacy of the Heavenly Court Leibu Zhengshen!
"What God's Thunder Jade Mansion? Today you are the golden mansion in the sky, and I want you to die!"

Suddenly there was an icy sound full of anger, and a sword light cut down in the air.

Jiang Zhou didn't need to look to know that it was Lin Shushu who had returned.

Being so angry must have also learned the truth from Chen Laoshi.

Although the minds of these common people were restricted, it might not be able to stop him and Su Nisheng.

With a slight movement of thought, the five-color smoke enveloped the Taoist priest.

The sword light was easily blocked by the five-color smoke.

"Jiang Zhou! You want to protect him?"

Two sword lights fell, and Lin Shushu and Su Nisheng appeared.

Jiang Zhou shook his head: "You wait first."

Glancing at the pale and trembling Taoist priest, he said, "Have you ever heard of a pair of sisters surnamed Zhu?"

The young Taoist shook his head in shock.

Jiang Zhou pointed at Lin Shushu with a smile: "You have to think clearly before answering, otherwise, I can't stop him."

The young Taoist priest's complexion turned pale again.

The frightening icy sword light just now was beyond his ability to bear.

Hastily racked his brains and searched his memory.

After a while, he suddenly shouted: "Xiaodao remembered!"

"I heard that the Jade Mansion has recently accepted two female disciples. I heard that the mansion master personally accepted them as true biography, and they are highly valued. It seems... It seems that the surname is Zhu!"

Jiang Zhou said, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, sure!"

The Taoist panicked and said: "I have said everything, you can't let him kill me! I am a disciple of Yufu, if you kill me, you will not end well!"

Jiang Zhou smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will stop him if I say I will stop him."

After finishing speaking, he really held down Lin Shushu.

Gao Ji, who was covered in scorched black, suddenly said, "Have you finished asking?"

Jiang Zhou nodded.

"Then is he still useful?"

Jiang Zhou shook his head.

Gao Di grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth.

Like a beast, he rushed towards the Taoist priest.

His hands scratched and tore like animal claws.

"what!"

After a few screams.

Jiang Zhou grinned as he looked at the inhuman Taoist priest.

What a miserable person...

This high level, the technique is too primitive, too cruel.

Although Lin Shushu was dissatisfied at this time, she became like this, and her anger was relieved.

He frowned and said, "How do you know that this Taoist priest is related to those two poisonous women?"

Jiang Zhou spread his hands and said, "How do I know? It's just a casual test. Who knows that he can really say it?"

Lin Shushu said: "Okay! What kind of bullshit Yufu is this? It exploits the common people and takes in the poisonous women. It can be seen that it is not a good thing. It just happened to come to the door to merge it!"
