strayed into fairy mountain

Chapter 31 [Make things difficult for him]

At the same time, eight thousand miles away.

When Zhang Jingxu led the yamen servants to investigate the case, the dignitaries of the imperial capital were having a good time.

The brothel singer, brightly lit, sings softly, and feasts with joy.

People live in the world, maybe they really have different fates.

Some people are born poor and hardworking, and live in poverty and hard work all their lives, such as the common people, who live their whole lives just to eat and eat.

Some people are born to be comfortable, or rich or luxurious, even if it is neither expensive nor extravagant, they don't have to worry about their lives for the rest of their lives.

I have to say that reincarnation is really a lucky job.

For example, people born in the imperial capital are completely different from those born in the countryside.Even if it is just ordinary people, the living environment is very different.

For ordinary people, being able to live comfortably is happiness, but even such a small happiness cannot be enjoyed by ordinary people born in the countryside.

Only the imperial capital can do it.

The imperial capital of the imperial city is also the location of the headquarters of the gods. Even when the night is dark and quiet, there is no fog for hundreds of miles around the imperial city.

Yes, there is no fog at night here!
No matter how ferocious the ghost, or how powerful the demon, if they dare to appear near the imperial city, it means provoking the human race.

Anyone who dares to provoke will be eliminated.

Neither tolerance nor connivance.

……

If the ghosts harm people in other places, they may be beyond their control. After all, the imperial dynasty has an area of ​​[-] miles, and the territory is too large and requires too many people.

Hundreds of thousands of villages in the country need hundreds of thousands of night watchmen.

There are more than 3 counties, large and small, and more than 3 county governments need to be established, and in each county, a branch of the gods must be established.

With such a huge demand for talents, no matter the dynasty or the Shenjue Mansion will be in short supply, especially the Shenjuan Mansion needs people who practice.

However, it is very difficult to awaken and practice in this world. The first step must be to accumulate enough merit, and only by accumulating sufficient merit can one start the path of practice.

However, how difficult it is to accumulate enough merit, and how few people can make it to this step.

So even if the dynasty is powerful and the Divine Family Mansion has a long history, the two major forces are all short of manpower, and most places within the border are beyond reach.

The whip can't reach it, in fact, it is because of the powerlessness, so the ghosts will run rampant, and the mist will shroud the earth.

However, this situation does not exist around the dynasty.

A hundred miles around, there is not a trace of fog, the night is quiet and peaceful, and the sky is full of stars when you look up.

It's very safe here.

Therefore, it is also very comfortable.

Any ghosts and evil spirits have to take a detour when they get here. It is a hundred or even two hundred miles away. No matter how powerful the ghost is, it will be frightening.

The reason is very simple. This is not only the capital of the imperial city, but also the headquarters of the Divine Family Mansion, and in the Divine Family General Mansion, there is a great priest who looks like a god of war.

In his hand is a weapon bestowed by the gods, which is an ancient bronze-colored spear.

With just one swipe, the force is like thunder, no matter how fierce the ghost is, this gun will kill it with one blow.

It is said that the great priest has lived for more than 200 years.

He has already accumulated enough merit to go to heaven.

However, maybe because there are no descendants, or maybe this great priest has a heart for the common people, in short, he never left, and has been sitting in the mansion of the gods.

Every night, he stood on the top of the building, looking down at the [-]-mile territory of the imperial dynasty, gaining insight into the changes in the fog on the ground, and using this to speculate on the situation in various places.

He is silently guarding the human race.

In today's God's House, perhaps he is the only one who still sincerely protects the human race.

……

This is really a strong man who works hard.

At the same time, he is also the elder who earnestly teaches the younger generation.

For example, tonight, the great priest stood on the top of the building, and behind him, there were young people gathered in twos and threes.

Precepts and deeds.

Do it yourself.

Obviously the Great Priest is so strong that he doesn't need to wear armor, but he puts on the battle armor given by the gods. Obviously he is already strong enough that he doesn't need a spear, but he always stands with a gun every time he goes upstairs.

And the expression is solemn, which can be called meticulous.

This powerful elder with a heart like the sea is telling the juniors with practical actions that since he shoulders his duties, he must be serious, abide by every rule, and guard the world with heart.

His eyes are deep, penetrating everywhere in the world, and from time to time he tells the young people some situations, so as to teach the juniors of the Shenjue Mansion.

For example, within the county, there are villages to disperse the fog. From this, it can be inferred that the night watchmen awakened after accumulating enough merit...

Compared with how to deal with the county and state capitals, the scope of dispelling the fog has expanded. From this, it can be inferred that the local divine family branch must have a big move...

It is very likely that a powerful ghost was killed, so the fog can be dispelled to a wider range. This is a great achievement and needs to be rewarded.

Suddenly the great priest let out a 'huh', as if he was interested in discovering something, his eyes were like lightning, and he looked eight thousand miles away.

After a long time, the elder's face showed relief, as if he was talking to himself, and he seemed to be thinking, and said softly: "It's really interesting, it's this small county again, only three days later, there is another Villages cleared the fog."

Only every three days.

Drive away the fog again.

This is not an ordinary situation, so that even he, a strong man, was surprised.

You must know that although there are awakeners every night in the entire dynasty, only 30 to [-] people can be awakened in a vast territory of [-] miles.

And how many villages are there in the world?

Hundreds of thousands of large and small...

With so many villages, the number of night watchmen is extremely large, but among the hundreds of thousands of night watchmen, only 30 to [-] are awakened every night.

This ratio is pitifully small.

If it is apportioned to a small county, it will be very small. The short one may appear in ten or eight years, and the long one may not even appear in decades or hundreds of years.

But under this premise, there is a small county that is special. Only three days later, another village dispelled the night fog.

This made the great priest very gratified, but at the same time he was a little curious.

Suddenly he turned around and waved to those young people, and asked in a gentle tone: "Who of you still remember that three days ago, there was a small village that cleared the fog in the first half of the night, and the old man told you at that time that this small village must have awakened one Nice night watchman..."

"At that time, the old man ordered you to recruit him into the government, reuse him, and train him a lot."

"Then, has this night watchman ever been recruited into the Palace of the Divine Family?"

"Who can come over and talk to the old man?"

……

All the young people present were startled, and they began to wink quietly at each other.

three days ago?

Waking up in the middle of the night?
It didn't take long, so they all remembered it, and not only remembered it, but they also did it secretly.

It’s just that we can’t say this, otherwise the great priest will definitely give him another training, even if the training is not counted, maybe they will be imprisoned for penance...

They don't want to go to penance.

Why do you have to study hard when you are born into a wealthy family?

This kind of thing can't be avoided, and no one wants to be watched by the great priest.

However, how to hide the question from the great priest?
These young nobles began to invent lies.

It's a pity that they soon realized that it was obviously impossible to hide this time. The reason is very simple. The great priest is waiting for everyone to answer with his eyes shining.

However, what should I do?
Is it really necessary to answer truthfully, so as to provoke the anger of the great priest?At that time, I am afraid that I will be imprisoned, and most importantly, I will have to practice hard for half a year...

Thinking of penance, all the young people present felt a headache, so they couldn't help but all looked at a certain girl.

At this time, the girl was also secretly panicking, and retreated a few steps furtively, but her retreating movement attracted the attention of the great priest.

Immediately the great priest looked over, and asked in a deep voice: "Girl Yunyao, you seem to have something hidden in your heart..."

The girl let out an 'ah', subconsciously opened her mouth to defend, and said, "No, Grandpa, Yunyao, I have nothing hidden in my heart."

Unexpectedly, the great priest's face became serious, and he said in a deep voice again: "How many times have I told you that you want to call my official position here, you are the fifth-rank priest of the Shenjuan Mansion, and I am the super-rank of the Shenjuan Mansion!" Great Priest. Although we are grandparents, we are subordinates when on duty. According to the regulations of the Divine Palace, you must call me Great Priest..."

The tone of these words is actually not serious, it can only be regarded as a slight reprimand, but the girl seemed to have been greatly wronged, and she cried and cried with tears in her eyes, "You...you scold me!"

The face of the great priest was obviously helpless, and he frowned and said: "A dignified fifth-rank priest is equivalent to a fifth-rank sheriff of the imperial court, but wouldn't it be a joke if it spread about your crying appearance?"

However, the girl was still crying, and even wiped her eyes and rushed forward, as if she had been greatly wronged and said: "I don't care about the official position, I just think you scold me very fiercely, grandpa, do you not love Yunyao anymore?" ?”

The great priest became more and more helpless, frowning and gently pushed her away.

Immediately he sighed slightly, with a somewhat dispirited expression, and said: "Forget it, let's leave this matter at that. Originally, the old man thought that he would use the situation in that small county to teach you a lesson. As a result, you girl made a fuss, which made the old man suddenly interested. nothing at all..."

The girl seemed to be crying, but her eyeballs rolled around, and she took the opportunity to ask tentatively, "Is that small county special?"

Hearing her inquiry, the great priest mistakenly thought that the girl was seeking knowledge, and hurriedly said, "It's not that the small county is special, but one of them is special."

After a slight pause, he said with relief: "The old man overlooked the world just now, and his eyes penetrated into the territory of the imperial dynasty ten thousand miles away. He found that in the small county of Yicheng, only three days later, there was another village that dispelled the fog."

"When I first discovered it, the old man thought that someone in that small county had awakened again, but when I looked closely again out of curiosity, I realized that it was actually the person from three days ago."

"What a good junior. He dispelled the fog after only three days of awakening. Moreover, the old man saw that there was a faint light on his body, and it is very likely that he has gained a lot of merit."

"It can be inferred from this that he must have got rid of an evil ghost. He has made a lot of achievements by resolving the danger of a village."

"The reason why the old man asked you just now is because he was curious about this person. I remember I told you three days ago that you must recruit him into the God's House to train him."

"In the end, not only did you not answer, but you, a girl, were crying and crying, which made the old man bored, and now I have no interest."

"Hey, when will you children grow up. Be sensible and take responsibility earlier."

"There are rules in this world, and there are laws in the dark. Those who enjoy it must pay, and if they only know how to enjoy and don't want to pay, they will consume a lot of family luck."

"You children, every family is a wealthy family under the command of the God's Family. So when you were born, you all had a golden spoon in your mouth."

"But you don't understand that your ancestors were not rich. They used to struggle in the mud, and then slowly rose because of their achievements."

"Every time you make a contribution, it is a contribution to the human race. It is also because of the contribution of your ancestors that the younger generations enjoy good fortune."

"But children, good luck will wear off. Although your ancestors have made great achievements, they can't support you from generation to generation. If you can't wake up in time, you can't fulfill your due responsibilities..."

"Ugh!"

"The old man has been teaching you all these years, I really feel a little exhausted."

"I have fought a hundred thousand fierce ghosts, and I have never felt so tired."

"Baby, it's time to wake up."

Inculcate!

Nothing but the case!

……

It's a pity that the painstaking efforts of this honest elder were in vain.

All the young aristocrats at the scene ignored it, just pretending to be obedient.

Especially the girl named Yunyao, her focus is not on inheriting the achievements of her ancestors at all, but her eyeballs are twitching, and she once again asked with a certain purpose:

"Grandpa, you just said that that person has earned merit tonight. How much is it? Is there an exact number?"

The great priest was slightly taken aback, feeling that the granddaughter's question was a bit strange.

But the elder was kind and didn't think of the bad side.

Without doubting him, he replied casually: "The distance of eight thousand miles is really far away. Although the old man can see the world with his eyes, if the distance is too far, he can only see some signs, and then infer from the signs. For reference... As for the exact number, this old man is not really sure."

The girl Yunyao hurriedly said: "Then you can give me a reference number."

The great priest pondered for a while, and said slowly: "The light of merit and virtue on his body should be roughly between two hundred and three hundred. From this, it can be inferred that he has at least resolved the lives of two to three hundred people tonight. This junior is really That’s right, I just woke up and made meritorious deeds…”

However, the girl no longer listened to his babbling, instead her eyes flickered maliciously, and she thought to herself: "There are two hundred to three hundred merits, which is enough to exchange for a good weapon. No, we must not let him go smoothly. "

"I just said three days ago that I would make things difficult for him, but he has earned a lot of merit in the blink of an eye. If I let him go more smoothly, I, Yunyao, will lose face."

"I must immediately send a copy of the divine sword to the people, so that the Yicheng Divine Family Mansion can help me a lot to obstruct it. Even if I can't kill him, I have to make things difficult for him, hmph."

　According to regulations, the new issue is 4000 words, but I am six or seven thousand words today...

　　At this speed, I am afraid that the story will be finished before it is put on the shelves, alas.
