Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 124
Xu Zhiqiong returned to the penalty department with the ticket and the contract.

He first went to the reward building, exchanged for meritorious service, and then went to the exit of the Punishment Division.

There are three gates at the exit of Punishment Division, one leads to Yin Division, one leads to Zhongzaifu, and the other leads to Reward Division. This is the only way he knows to lead to Reward Division.

This road is quite different from the road leading to the underworld, with red flowers and green trees all the way, full of vitality.

After walking for more than half an hour, there was a green mountain in front of the road. The mountain was not too high, it was four to five hundred feet. The vegetation in the mountain was lush, and a small stream slowly descended from the mountainside.

There is a gazebo beside the creek, and in the gazebo, a man in white is playing the piano.

This man was wearing a mask, apparently an official of the Department of Appreciation, he was very good at the piano, Xu Zhiqiong knew music, he often enjoyed music in Goulan.

Seeing that person playing so intently, Xu Zhiqiong didn't want to disturb him, and listened quietly from the side.

After half an hour, the man in white finally finished playing a song and sighed softly: "Good song, really good song, thank you for waiting for a long time."

Xu Zhiqiong leaned over and saluted: "It's really my honor to hear Mr. playing fairy music."

The man in white nodded and said: "Since that's the case, a certain family will play another song for Xiongtai."

"Wait a minute!" Xu Zhiqiong couldn't wait for the song to last for an hour. He took out Yuan's crimes and handed them over to the white-clothed human, "I'm here to pay for my merits."

The man in white looked at the crimes, nodded and said: "Among the same people, there are countless people who punish the evil and eliminate the evil, and only a few who reward the good and the good. It's rare, it's really rare. A certain family plays three ditties. I'll take you to exchange for meritorious service."

Isn't it right, come to reward Shansi for meritorious service, and you have to take an exam?

This person has always called himself a certain family, which is a self-proclaimed term from the previous dynasty, and it is also very common in operas.

This person must be a song idiot.

Xu Zhiqiong is not unfamiliar with Qupai, but he is not too familiar with it. In Goulan, Xu Zhiqiong did not devote much energy to Qupai. Most of Qupai was listened to in Yingge Academy.

Qin Changmao always comes to reward the good division to lead the meritorious deeds. Does he have to pass the exam every time?Judging by his appearance, he doesn't know much about music.

While thinking about it, the man in white had already started playing the piano, halfway through, Xu Zhiqiong heard the tune: "This is "Drunken Peace"."

The man in white nodded and said: ""Drunken Peace" is an old song, and it's not a skill to listen to it. Listen to a certain house and play another song."

After playing for a while, Xu Zhiqiong blurted out: "This is "The Waist of the Emerald Skirt"."

The man in white smiled: "Is there anyone in the street who doesn't know "The Waist of the Green Skirt".

The next song was quite different, it was a typical Yangchun Baixue, and it was the kind of song that Xin Chu, the master of Wuyin Pavilion, danced in Yingge Yuan.

This kind of music is beyond the scope of Xu Zhiqiong's appreciation, Xu Zhiqiong naturally can't remember the tune, after playing a section, the man in white looked at Xu Zhiqiong and said: "You can't hear it this time, can you?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "Forgive me for my clumsy ears."

If you can't hear it, just admit it generously, there is no need to fool around with others.

The man in white got up and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity, you only heard two songs."

I failed the test.

The feats were not exchanged.

Forget it, if you didn't exchange it, you didn't exchange it. If you don't exchange it this time, there will be a next time. Anyway, the crime is in your own hands, and you may not meet this weird person next time.

Xu Zhiqiong was about to leave when he saw the man get up and say, "Come with a certain family."

Xu Zhiqiong asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

"Aren't you going to redeem meritorious service?"

"I only heard two songs, but can I still redeem my merits?"

"Even if you can't hear a single song, you can change it," the white-clothed man said with a smile, "rewarding kindness is a great achievement, can it still be due to you?"

That's when you let me hear what's going on!

Xu Zhiqiong didn't make a sound, and followed the man in white slowly up the hill along the creek.

"Tell a certain family, where did this crime come from?"

What do I need to say?
You don't know how to take pictures with a mirror?
Doesn't the Department of Rewarding Goodness not have such equipment as the evil mirror stand?

Let's just say it, Xu Zhiqiong explained the matter in detail, the man in white nodded and said: "It turns out that this matter is still related to Qin Changmao, what do you think of Qin Changmao?"

Xu Zhiqiong's heart tightened and he remembered something.

Most of Qin Changmao's meritorious service comes from the Department of Appreciation, and he is quite famous in the Department of Appreciation. This question must be answered carefully.

Xu Zhiqiong said: "It's hard to say even half a word."

The man in white nodded and said: "You and a certain family are both upright people, and you don't talk about people's merits behind their backs. However, according to a certain family, Qin Changmao has made a lot of achievements in rewarding good deeds, but he is pedantic, and he doesn't know what is right and wrong. If he saves one person, he doesn't know how many people." To suffer from it is not the right way to reward goodness!"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "What brother said is true."

The man in white turned his face and said, "Do you know what the right path of rewarding goodness is?"

Is there an exam again?

Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment and said: "Rewarding the good and punishing the evil is the duty of Taoism."

"That's right, if you can't even answer this..." The man made a long tone on purpose.

Xu Zhiqiong said: "If I can't answer the question, then I won't be honored for my merits?"

"No, I can't answer it. A certain family can't do anything to you. The meritorious service still has to be honored. The certain family just asked casually."

The man in white continued to walk up the mountain, looking at his back, Xu Zhiqiong felt the urge to beat him up.

Forget it, wait until you get meritorious service and beat him again.

When the two reached the top of the mountain, the man in white took a breath of the mountain breeze, feeling very comfortable.

"Brother, besides temperament, what else do you like?"

Xu Zhiqiong said truthfully: "I also like to enjoy dancing."

The man in white nodded: "That's good, unlike people like Qin Changmao, who only specialize in his teeth-brushing utensils, and a certain family plays music for him, but he can't recognize a single one. Such vulgar people, It really disgusts a certain family! Since your brother is happy to enjoy the dance, how about a certain family dancing a song for you? If you can see the tunes that a certain family dances..."

Xu Zhiqiong couldn't bear it anymore: "Brother, I have other urgent matters, so you can give me your merits first."

"Sigh, it's hard to find a bosom friend," the man in white sighed, "follow me to the small kiosk at the foot of the mountain to exchange for meritorious service."

A kiosk under the mountain?

Isn't that still the original place?

Xu Zhiqiong said angrily: "Since you are paying your meritorious service in the small pavilion, why do you still take me up the mountain?"

The man in white said: "A certain family is tired and wants to go for a walk on the mountain. I don't want you to follow me, brother."

Xu Zhiqiong was furious, rolled up his sleeves and said, "May I ask how much cultivation you have?"

The man in white clasped his fists and said, "Fourth rank of the Taoist sect, reward the good doctor, Bai Yueshan!"

Xu Zhiqiong rolled back his sleeves, cupped his fists and said, "Seventh-rank fellow, Ma Shangfeng, met Doctor Bai."

Bai Yueshan exclaimed: "I am Yueshan, and you Shangfeng, no wonder you are so speculative!"

"Speculation, speculation!" Xu Zhiqiong gritted his teeth secretly.

Sipin, brag about you!
Is the fourth grade a funny comparison like you?
He took a look with the pupil of sin, but couldn't see the other party's cultivation.

The limit of the pupil of sin karma is the fifth rank, since it cannot be seen, it proves that the other party is above the fifth rank.

This funny is not talking big.

With his hands behind his back, Bai Yueshan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The season is just right, you can go with a certain family to pick some flowers in the mountains."

"Picking flowers..." Xu Zhiqiong pursed his lips, unable to laugh or cry, and said, "Just listen to Doctor Bai's orders."

The two wandered around the mountain for half a day, and when they returned to the small pavilion, Doctor Bai played another song, finally willing to exchange merit for Xu Zhiqiong.

He put his sin karma on the piano, and after a while, the horns turned into a cloud of black smoke and dissipated.

There is an extra cloth bag on the piano, the cloth bag is embroidered with a word "white", and it is full of golden beans.

The fourth grade Shangshan Doctor is the master of Shangshan Division.

Xu Zhiqiong has been to the Department of Punishment of Evil many times, but he has never seen the Minister of Punishment of Evil, but the Doctor of Reward for Good is willing to exchange merit for Xu Zhiqiong himself.

Although he has a weird temperament, Xu Zhiqiong's impression of Bai Yueshan is not bad.

Bai Yueshan handed over the meritorious service to Xu Zhiqiong, just as Xu Zhiqiong said his farewell, Bai Yueshan said: "Wait a minute, is this the first time you have rewarded kindness?"

Judging from his tone, it seems that there are other rewards for being kind for the first time.

Xu Zhiqiong quickly agreed: "It is indeed the first time."

Bai Yueshan nodded, clasped his fists and said, "There will be a time later!"

I set...

If it weren't for me not being able to beat you, you see I won't kill you...

Xu Zhiqiong returned home with his meritorious service, and the Taoist priest sat in the courtyard and waited.

"As much as you have collected in total, take it out!"

"Actually, there aren't too many," Xu Zhiqiong first took out the [-] meritorious deeds that he exchanged in Yin Division.

The Taoist priest nodded and said: "Counting the more than one hundred pills that were used to punish Duan Shiyun, it is enough to reach the seventh rank."

To punish Duan Shiyun, I got [-] pieces from Cao Yilang, which added up to more than [-] pieces, just enough to be promoted to the seventh rank.

Xu Zhiqiong had [-] left over from last time, so he also took it out.

The Taoist priest sighed: "Forget it, you have already completed half of the journey to Zhongsheng."

Xu Zhiqiong also took out the [-] meritorious service received from the Department of Appreciation, and the Taoist priest was not calm:
"I just said that you thief must steal food! I didn't look at it for a while, but you actually hid so much? Did you skip the seventh rank? I have to jump over the top of the product..."

After a few words, the Taoist priest noticed that the bags containing meritorious deeds were different.

The word "white" is embroidered on it.

"This is Bai Yueshan's pocket," the Taoist priest's eyebrows eased a little, "Did you reward me?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and recounted his previous experience.

The Taoist priest heard it and praised him greatly: "Your ability to kill people is amazing. I didn't expect that the kindness of redemption will not be reduced. You are really a member of my Taoist sect! Anyway, I will help you to rise to the seventh rank as a teacher! You eat four first. A hundred meritorious service!"

"Thank you, master!" Xu Zhiqiong turned around to get the wine!
For this moment, he prepared two altars of good wine!

One altar is Meishou from Fenglelou, and the other is Liuxia from Gaoyangdian.

Meishou is strong wine, and you should drink it when the middle school is rising, and the mood will be more in place.

Liuxia is softer, take a few sips first, and put the golden beans down!
The young man is in high spirits, he deserves to sing and drink wildly!
Xu Zhiqiong picked up the wine jar and shouted: "Excellent!"

He weighed it and let it go again.

"Master..."

The Taoist priest sighed softly: "Today is a fasting day."

He drank up Liuxia.

Forget it, spirits are fine too!
Xu Zhiqiong raised his eyebrows again.

"Master..."

The Taoist priest sighed again: "You have been away for too long."

He drank the two jars of good wine without keeping a sip.

"Master, since it's time to fast, don't come to me!"

Xu Zhiqiong drank a bowl of cold water, sighed, and ate three hundred and ninety-nine meritorious deeds.

He didn't eat the last one. He still remembered the lesson when he was promoted to the seventh rank. At that time, he went crazy and was slapped twice by the Taoist priest before he woke up.

He can't suffer from this loss again today, he believes that Taoist priest has other ways.

Niu Yuxian made an iron helmet for Xu Zhiqiong. Xu Zhiqiong put on the iron helmet first, and then put on the judge's mask.

He ate the [-]th meritorious service and stood in front of the Taoist priest.

"Master, the disciple is ready."

The Taoist priest didn't move, Xu Zhiqiong said: "Master, what are you waiting for, disciple here..."

In the middle of speaking, Xu Zhiqiong stopped.

To be precise, it froze.

It was the body that froze before, but now the mind is froze.

His thinking has stagnated, and once a person's thinking has stagnated, time has also come to a standstill for him.

This process is very dangerous, if there is no external force to intervene, Xu Zhiqiong will remain still in place until the body and spirit are exhausted.

The Taoist priest had been prepared for a long time, he helped Xu Zhiqiong take off his helmet, and helped Xu Zhiqiong take off his mask.

He picked up a firewood stick from the ground and aimed it at Xu Zhiqiong's head.

boom!A muffled sound!The firewood stick was broken.

The strength of this stick was just right, the bag was lifted, and there was no bleeding.

The Taoist priest put the helmet and mask on Xu Zhiqiong again, and after waiting for half a cup of tea, Xu Zhiqiong woke up.

"Master, has the disciple reached the seventh rank?"

The Taoist priest nodded and said, "I've been promoted."

It's easy to rise in the seventh rank, not as painful as it used to be.

Just a little dizzy.

Xu Zhiqiong took off his helmet and mask, and said with a smile, "Master, let's help this disciple to get promoted to the seventh rank!"

The Taoist priest shook his head and said, "Don't be busy, first pass on your seventh-rank skills, the law of heaven and earth!"

What is fair and honest?It doesn't sound like a very good fight!
"Isn't Master trying to teach me how to judge a case? Such skills are useless."

The Taoist priest shook his head and said: "Seventh grade judges the right and wrong of the master, you have your own right and wrong, but if you meet a tyrannical person and don't judge according to right and wrong, what should you do?"

Xu Zhiqiong thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "If he doesn't follow me, I have nothing to do."

Some things must be spoken by strength.

The Taoist priest looked solemn: "The laws of heaven are fair, focus on the enemy, and concretize in the heart. If the enemy is strong, you are strong, and if you are weak, the enemy is weak. It is a fair fight."

Xu Zhiqiong understood what the Taoist priest meant,
When fighting against a strong enemy, he can forcibly pull the strength of both sides to the same level!

Xu Zhiqiong looked at the Taoist priest: "Master, does that mean I won't have to be afraid of you in the future?"

The Taoist priest really opened his posture: "Madman, do you dare to come and try?"
