Immortality is above

Chapter 155 154: Processing

Yin ghosts and the like are like ghosts but not yet ghosts. They are like weeds, popping up one after another, seemingly endless.

Although their individual strength is low, they can withstand the large numbers. If ordinary people and ghosts and gods who have been conferred titles are entangled by them, they will not feel good.

When Chen Liubai broke into their territory, numerous ghosts immediately swarmed around him like mosquitoes, wanting to feast on fresh flesh and blood.

Chen Liubai summoned the Chenyuan Sword, and his journey was smooth and he strangled the enemy to his heart's content.

When they returned to the outskirts of the city, the ghosts disappeared without a trace.

Here, basic order and public security can still be guaranteed.

It was already daybreak and the city gates were open.

The news that the man and horse returned to the city quickly spread.

Although Chen Liubai left the city quietly, he was still known by some people. They thought that the teacher would be delayed outside the city and would not return to the city until after a while.

After all, going out of the city to do business is mostly related to various ghosts and gods.

It is not easy to convince them.

If one thing goes wrong, there will inevitably be a big mess.

Unexpectedly, Chen Liubai came back in just one day.

Did he hit a wall and return empty-handed?

But Chen Liubai's face looked calm, without any sign of problems.

Later, well-informed people received the message that Chen Liubai took a tough stance and suppressed a land god with one move. He then issued an imperial edict to summon all kinds of ghosts and gods, and easily frightened them.

Seeing this result, the people in the city couldn't help but sigh: Gaohua City is really going to be turned upside down...

When it comes down to it, matters in the world of cultivation are still determined by strength.

Chen Liubai not only has strength, but also has a strong background, and his style of doing things is ruthless and experienced.

When facing such a teacher, the best way is to be as honest as possible to avoid being caught.

So, all the thoughts that had been brewing while Chen Liubai was away were restrained again.

……

The Office of the Instructor.

The officers Lao Ding and Lao Wu were very happy to see Chen Liubai return so soon.

To be honest, when Chen Liubai was not there, the huge yamen seemed to have lost its backbone, and it was empty and in danger.

"What happened today?"

After Chen Liubai offered incense to the statues of the three great emperors as per custom, he began to ask.

Old Ding reported, "There has been some movement in the recruitment notice that was posted. Two people have come one after another, wanting to apply to be a Taoist master. But since you are not here, I dare not make a decision. I only left their contact information and will make a decision when you come back."

Chen Liubai ordered: "Then go and invite the person over, and I'll see if it's appropriate."

The Taoist temple has reopened, and students are enthusiastic about registering, so the seats have already been filled.

But there is no Taoist master.

Previously, when Chen Liubai came to give lectures, it was a temporary job and required a formal Taoist master to take over.

Being a teacher and giving lectures in a Taoist temple is actually a good job, with good pay. If you do well, there is room for advancement.

However, the situation in Gaohua City was quite special. The management was chaotic, and successive teachers came and went. There was no stable situation, which led to the decline of the Taoist temple and its final closure.

It was not until Chen Liubai took office that it was reopened.

At first, everyone was taking a wait-and-see attitude.

After waiting and observing, he confirmed Chen Liubai's background and strength, so he naturally decided to join him and become his subordinate.

If you are lucky, you can also enjoy the scenery of the mountain.

This is definitely a rare opportunity.

Not to mention the ordinary independent cultivators, even those arrogant people from side sects began to have ideas.

If you can't beat them, just join them, let nature take its course. There is no deep hatred between them, nor are they irreconcilable enemies.

Attitudes and positions can all be changed.

It would be different if Chen Liubai took advantage of his power and wanted to eliminate the side forces.

However, Chen Liubai thought that it was better to do so than to do so at all.

This suggests that relationships between each other can buffer changes.

Although there is a mountain above your head and you have to be more restrained in what you do, it doesn't matter as it does not harm your fundamental interests.

Lao Ding received the order and hurried out to find someone.

Half an hour later, the two men were called over and taken to the Education Office for a meeting.

These two people are both old monks, with a look of vicissitudes of life. One is called "Song Yuanshan" and the other is called "Ren Fulai".

They all had teaching experience in Taoist temples before and had certain experience.

Chen Liubai didn't say much and started the interview directly, asking the two people to give a lecture respectively.

After listening, he nodded slightly, which was considered as approval.

A casual practitioner naturally cannot be called a famous teacher, but his advantage is that he has solid basic skills and is good at imparting knowledge, making him quite suitable to enlighten students.

"Okay, both of you are accepted. I will not interfere with the teaching. I hope you can teach diligently and treat all students kindly and equally. Just as the Taoist temple instructs: open the door widely, spread the Dharma throughout the world, and everyone will be like a dragon!"

"Remember your teachings."

Song and Ren responded in unison.

As "old men", they have experienced a lot, have tasted the ways of the world, have seen through the black and white, and have a mature mentality. They will not be easily instigated and appear to be passionate. However, deep in their hearts, they always maintain a passion that can guarantee the responsibility of a Taoist master.

Of course, if you can't teach, or teach recklessly, you will be dismissed.

Chen Liubai prepared the identity tokens and distributed them, then asked the two to go to the Taoist temple to take up their posts and start classes.

As for the remuneration, it is paid according to the rules, mainly in the form of incense money, which can also be converted into spiritual stones, spiritual rice and the like.

As he took on the role of teacher, Chen Liubai had more and more matters to deal with.

This can be said to be a brand new experience.

Generally speaking, management is a science.

Chen Liubai has always been accustomed to going about his business alone, settling scores and taking pleasure in revenge.

He also believed that when practicing to transcend, one should not be entangled and troubled by these trivial matters, as this would inevitably delay one's pursuit of the truth...

It’s just that after personal practice, my mentality has changed:
"If you want to leave the world, you must first enter it; if you want to transcend, you must experience..."

"Why think so much? Instead of thinking about it, it's better to put it into practice."

Chen Liubai quickly put these distracting thoughts behind him. His appointment to Gaohua City was itself a mission from within the sect and was related to his future prospects.

But this mission is vague, and senior brother Mo Xuanyi’s instructions are not specific either.

How long is the term of office?

At what point is it considered completed?

All unknown.

Therefore, Chen Liubai has to figure out and make decisions on his own as to what to do.

What are the rules, right or wrong?
Is there someone secretly monitoring and giving scores?
In that case, there are many things involved.

However, Chen Liubai only thought about it for a moment and then stopped caring about it and just did his best.

When you practice cultivation and ask your heart, of course you are asking your own heart.

The issue of the Taoist temple lecturer has been resolved. The next step is to prepare talismans, magical instruments and other items to give to various ghosts and gods.

This is a necessary measure to maintain local stability and an effective means of proving oneself.

However, he doesn't seem to know how to refine weapons...
