Chapter 265: Gods of Qinghe County, Young Azure Dragon
As the two ghosts saluted, surprise appeared on their faces.
Although they are just ghosts, they are not ignorant people. Naturally, they know that Chen Yushu's current state is that his soul has left his body and is wandering at night.
And night tour.
But this is not something that ordinary monks can do.
Only a monk who has entered the realm of night wandering can do this.
In other words, the master has reached the state of entering the Tao and wandering at night?
Even though they admired Chen Yushu's talents and abilities immensely, especially Zhu Jiuzhi, who had practically watched his master grow up.
But the fact that he had grown to the level of night wandering in such a short period of time still shocked them greatly.
"Well, has anything happened recently?"
Chen Yushu nodded and then asked with interest.
During this period of time, he had been staying in his room to practice in seclusion and had hardly ever gone out.
Although Zhu Jiuzhi would come to report every few days, they were all trivial matters and he didn't take them too seriously.
This time, his spirit was traveling at night, and he happened to meet the local land god Xu Qing, so he couldn't help but ask this question.
“Nothing special happened.
The most important thing should be the battle in Zhou County, which is almost over.
I heard that this time, the Underworld Suppression Division in Qinghe County sent a total of seven people, plus monks from various towns and villages, there were more than twenty people in total. The leader was the chief flag-gatherer of the Underworld Suppression Division in Qinghe County, Lord Chen He.
But only seven returned, and all of them were injured. It will probably take some time for them to recover."
On Tuesday, someone locally, who was more informed, quickly spoke up.
"oh?"
Chen Yushu nodded, knowing that Chen He was actually the chief leader of the underworld in Qinghe County.
As for Zhou Qing, he is actually a person from the underworld of Tianling County.
That's why Jiuhulu is so familiar with the other party.
This time, he was ordered to come and provide support, which is why he appeared in Qinghe County.
"That's right.
Last night, I felt a powerful presence approaching.
But the other party just stayed outside my temple door for a while and then left.
Later, I went out to investigate on Tuesday and was told that it might be another Taoist monk in Qinghe County, Qian Wang.
But the other party disappeared very quickly, so it couldn't be sure."
Zhu Jiuzhi then quickly spoke.
"Qian Wang? Another Taoist monk from Qinghe County."
Chen Yushu was stunned.
He knew before that there were two cultivators who had entered the Dao realm in Qinghe County.
One is Chen He from the Underworld Suppression Department, and the other is Qian Wang.
Qian Wang is a monk from Tianqiao Town in Qinghe County, and he has lived in Tianqiao Town for many years.
As for Tianqiao Town, it is actually the same as Jianghuan Town where Chen Yushu was previously located. It is a small town under the county seat.
The distance between the two is only about forty or fifty miles.
The other party was also invited to go to Zhou County before. Now that Chen He and others have returned, it is very normal for them to turn back.
As for why the other party was wandering around the gate of the General Temple.
Chen Yushu couldn't understand.
"Master, please stop parking outside and sit inside."
Seeing that Chen Yushu was still outside, Zhu Jiuzhi suddenly came to his senses and said hurriedly in a panic.
"good!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yushu nodded.
He had refused the invitation from the land god Xu Qing before because the other party was a strange ghost with strong strength. He did not feel safe in the other party's temple.
I don't want to put myself in such a dangerous situation.
But Zhu Jiuzhi is his spirit bond.
Although he is now a deified ghost, his life and death are completely controlled by him, and it is impossible for them to betray him, so he can naturally enter and exit without worry.
As soon as you enter.
The first thing Chen Yushu noticed was the statue in the General Temple.
The original statue has naturally been replaced.
After all, the original person being worshipped was the former deified general, but now the name needs to be changed and the statue reshaped.
The appearance of the statue is naturally the same as Zhu Jiuzhi's appearance during his lifetime, and the statue's tablet has also been changed.
In addition, many things in this temple were damaged after the previous fire and needed to be purchased and redecorated. Therefore, during this period, both Zhu Jiuzhi and Zhou Er were very busy and had been dealing with the recasting matters.
But no matter what, it was still a piece of land before Tuesday, and manpower could be allocated accordingly.
In addition, the General Temple was originally very popular and had a certain base of believers around it. Moreover, the establishment of a temple also requires many clergymen, temple masters and others.
Naturally, there are many monks who volunteered to come and take up the job.
Therefore, after entering the temple, Chen Yushu naturally saw several Yin-walking monks. Their cultivation levels were high and low. The strongest had reached the level of three incense sticks, and the weakest was only at the level of one incense stick.
They also noticed Chen Yushu.
That special spiritual state immediately made them show shock on their faces, and they all became respectful and awed in an instant.
As a Fengshen ghost, Zhu Jiuzhi is nominally the Fengshen they believe in and has an absolute subordinate relationship with them, so naturally he will not explain anything to them.
It invited Chen Yushu directly into an inner secret room, then bowed respectfully and said, "Master.
This should have been the secret room where the previous gods and ghosts practiced.
It is also the place where the other party stores the red light of faith and the crystals of faith.
It's a pity that the other party left behind only ten faith crystals, and only thirty strands of faith red light remained."
As he spoke, Zhu Jiuzhi respectfully handed over the crystal clear jade-like spirit crystals to Chen Yushu.
This spiritual crystal is the crystal of faith.
It is also a supreme treasure with endless uses for ghosts.
Once used, it can not only quickly restore the consumed soul, but can even be used for practice to help break through the ghost realm.
The effect is even more miraculous than the spirit stones used by monks.
Of course, for the monks who practice the Yin-walking method, this faith crystal can also play a role. It can quickly increase the monk's cultivation level and increase the strength of the monk's mental power.
Of course, the disadvantages are also very obvious.
That is, once the cultivator uses the crystal of faith and the red mist of faith to cultivate, his mental thoughts will become extremely complicated, and his mental power will be far inferior to those of the cultivators who have grown up through their own hard practice in terms of absolute strength.
When facing illusions, the ability to resist mental attacks will become extremely weak.
This is true even if one’s state of concentration is not low.
Therefore, generally speaking, cultivators who really have high demands on their own practice will not choose to use the red mist of faith or the crystal of faith to practice and improve themselves.
The gain does not outweigh the loss.
Chen Yushu naturally would not choose to use this red mist of faith and the crystal of faith to practice.
However, he doesn't have much else, but he does have a lot of ghosts around him.
It is just right to divide them up to help them practice.
Therefore, Chen Yushu did not refuse and directly took all the faith crystals.
Ten faith crystals are actually quite a lot.
A temple that is filled with incense and deification can only store a hundred wisps of red mist of faith in a day, and a hundred wisps of red mist of faith can only condense into a crystal of faith.
But a piece of faith crystal is enough for an early stage evil spirit cultivator to absorb for half a month.
So don’t underestimate the small number, it’s indeed not a lot either.
“However, he did leave behind quite a bit of gold and silver.
Lao Zhu and I took a special inventory yesterday.
That's about 1.5 million taels of silver."
Then, Zhou Er on the side also spoke quickly.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jiuzhi smiled, quickly stood up, and opened a secret room.
Suddenly, a pile of silver appeared in front of Chen Yushu.
“That’s quite a lot indeed.
I never thought that a small general temple could accumulate so much money?"
Seeing this, Chen Yushu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
No wonder temples are so prosperous everywhere.
Not only during festivals, people would worship and burn incense, and offer a small amount of money. Wealthy families would even invite temple priests to go out and pray for blessings and exorcise evil spirits.
Every time the temple keeper travels, in addition to his own share, he naturally has to leave some to offer to the corresponding ghosts and gods.
This is also the rule that has been set since the emergence of the gods and ghosts.
Just like Qi Jichuan mentioned to Chen Yushu before, as a temple keeper, every time he was invited to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, he would get at least thirty taels of silver. He could keep ten taels for himself, and the remaining twenty taels were for ghosts and gods.
From this we can see the earning ability of these gods and ghosts.
It is quite normal for the former ghost to have accumulated so much gold and silver over decades.
"Master, you can take these gold and silver away later.
That is, part of it was spent on rebuilding the General Temple, otherwise the silver would have been even greater."
Zhu Jiuzhi spoke quickly.
“There’s no rush.
I don’t need it for now.”
Chen Yushu waved his hand.
He really didn't expect that there were so many things hidden in the other party's temple, and there was even so much gold and silver.
He left early at that time and thought that all these had been looted by the people from the Underworld Suppression Department.
But think about it, the other party was in a hurry to do a favor, so he directly gave him the disposal rights of this temple, and he directly gave the identity of a god and ghost to Zhu Jiuzhi.
Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for Zhou Qing and other people from the Yinsi to search the place.
So it all benefited Zhu Jiuzhi, and of course it benefited him in the end.
"Tell me about the Canonization of Gods in Qinghe County."
Then, Chen Yushu asked again.
"I don't understand this as clearly as Brother Zhou does."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jiuzhi quickly spoke.
Zhou Er, who was standing by, bowed and said respectfully, "Master.
After all, I, Old Zhou, was born and raised in Qinghe County, and I have been a deity for a hundred years.
I have some understanding of many matters in Qinghe County and the situation of the Conferred God.
Speaking of the Conferred Gods, there are about a hundred of them, big and small, in Qinghe County, to be exact, there are one hundred and eight.
In fact, not many of them were rewarded by the imperial court.
Many of them are wild gods, and they call themselves gods. Then, at a certain period of time, when the imperial court issues a general amnesty, these wild gods will immediately report to the imperial court. They only need to pay a certain amount of benefits, and the deification tokens will generally be issued to them.
so.
This is the reason why the practice of deifying gods was rampant throughout the Wu Kingdom.
Of course, let’s get back to the topic.
Among the 108 gods in Qinghe County, the strongest is naturally the City God, who is said to have reached the late stage of the evil spirit level.
However, for the past ten years, the other party has been staying in his own City God Temple, practicing in seclusion.
It is said that they are preparing to impact the disaster level.
In addition, there is Xu Qing, the land god of Qinghe County, who is also a veteran deified god and is now at the middle stage of the evil spirit level.
Because the City God does not show up, he is now the most respected among the gods.
By the way, a few days ago, the temple priest of the land god came here specially. The meaning between the lines seems to be that he wants us to join him and become his subordinate deity.
We ignored it because of the temple reconstruction and the fact that it was your spirit contract.
As for the third one, it is the river god, Liu Kong who calls himself the river god.
It is also the middle level of the evil spirit level.
However, the Longjiang River outside Qinghe County is full of fish monsters, and there are also many powerful ghosts and gods.
In particular, there is a young dragon entrenched and acting tyrannically.
So Liu Kong's life is not easy.
Always down there, dealing with it carefully.
As for the fourth...it was the original General Miao Feng.
But last time, the opponent was eliminated by the master, so now I, Old Zhou, am ranked fourth..."
Zhou Er quickly spoke and listed all the ghosts and gods in detail.
At the end of the speech, a blush could not help but flash across his face.
certainly.
In fact, he could not be ranked fourth. After all, if calculated by the rank of deification, he was just a piece of rural land and did not even have the qualifications to settle in the county town. How could he be ranked fourth?
In the early stage of the Sui Dynasty, there were still three or four gods in Qinghe County.
However, now he thinks he has climbed up the ladder and now he has moved into the General Temple, although the real deified general is Zhu Jiuzhi.
But its realm is higher, and Zhu Jiuzhi is also a contracted spirit under Chen Yushu like him, so it is natural for him to consider himself the fourth.
Chen Yushu naturally didn't know the other party's little thoughts. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care. He just couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and asked, "Young Dragon?
Is there really a dragon in this Longjiang River?"
He couldn't help but recall what the God-favored One had said before.
It seems that the reason why the other party was in trouble was because he encountered a dragon.
He was seriously injured and was threatened and coerced by the Zhenjiang God's envoy of Jianghuan Town at that time to ask for help through the sensor disk, and only then was he able to contact him.
"What's the strength of that dragon?"
Then he asked again.
"Yes.
There is a dragon!
It is a young green dragon.
At only a hundred years old, it can only be considered a young dragon for the dragon clan.
Although its body is now very large and has an astonishingly strong aura.
I, Lao Zhou, have only seen it once, and that was ten years ago when I went to see it with the City God.
The feeling of oppression at that time made me, Lao Zhou, feel scared.
If we calculate it based on the fourth level of evil disasters caused by ghosts and gods, then it should be disaster level.
Disaster level.
However, the dragon race is gifted with extraordinary talents, and even at birth they have catastrophic-level strength.
So I don’t know the other party’s true strength.
Anyway, the City God at that time was also very respectful when facing the other party."
Tuesday quickly spoke.
