Chen Shiyan was very satisfied after seeing the formation.
He also had some exchanges with the two third-level formation masters in the Jindan stage.
He learned that inside the valley was a corner of a Nascent Soul level formation.
They are unable to break it open, at most they can open a temporary passage, but that will come at a great cost and involve a lot of uncertainty.
If there is no corresponding formation diagram, they can only break it by force, which the two of them cannot do.
Chen Shiyan was relieved.
It’s good that it can’t be cracked easily. If it can’t be cracked easily, then it will exist for a longer time and more monks will come.
After thanking the two third-level formation masters, Chen Shiyan opened the formation and returned to the county government office with the formation disk.
Taking into account the situation in the city, Chen Shiyan decided to start charging fees.
Call a few yamen runners and ask them to notify several Sicheng officials separately, and now it’s time to start.
Not long after, Chen Shiyan, standing on the terrace of the inner court, watched streams of light flying out from the gates of various yamen. He also used the seal to connect to the county's large formation.
When the formation was activated, the entire county was shrouded in a half-open bowl.
On the streets of the county town.
"What's going on? How did this protective formation open?"
"Yeah, what happened?"
Several foreign Chain Qi late stage monks gathered together.
When the secret realm of the ruins appears, the first ones to arrive are often the cultivators at the seventh, eighth, or ninth level of chain Qi.
Because some ruins or secret realms only allow cultivators in the Qi Chain Stage to enter.
More importantly, the temptation to achieve success overnight is too great.
There are countless legends in the world of immortal cultivation about a certain cultivator obtaining a supreme opportunity in some relic or secret realm.
Achieve the golden elixir, become the Nascent Soul, or even become a god.
Even if they are unwilling to come, those foundation-building monks will arrange for them to go ahead.
Only with accurate information will these foundation-building cultivators and even golden elixir cultivators take action.
As for the Yuanying Zhenjuns, they will not be in a hurry.
The secret ruins that Jindan monks can enter do not contain much useful information for them.
They will naturally appear in secret places and ruins that the Jindan monks cannot enter or are extremely dangerous.
"My fellow Taoists, are your registered permanent residences in Qianyuan County?"
A monk asked the monks who were discussing the county's defense formation.
"Please come in, fellow Taoist. We are from Yunfeng County."
The Chain Qi monk who asked the question had a smile on his face that was visible to the naked eye.
"I deserve to be rich. Please follow me to the Mission Department to register and exchange for your ID tokens."
Several monks looked at each other, thinking that it was the rule of Qianyuan County.
"Well, thank you very much, fellow Taoist."
Follow the monk who accepted the mission and walk towards the Mission Department.
When we arrived at the Mission Department, we saw a long line of monks.
"Fellow Daoist, are these all exchanged for identity tokens?"
"nature."
"I don't know what this identity token means."
"I don't know the details. Wait for the adults to tell you."
Of course he knew what the identity token was used for. It was used by the county magistrate to make money. Ugh, it was used by the county magistrate to manage these foreign monks.
As for these local monks, they can receive tasks from the Mission Department and bring people here.
There is no need for any conflict. It is very simple within the county. The contribution is just a little less, but it will add up to a lot.
When there are fewer foreign cultivators in the city, we can form a team to take on some missions outside the city. Maybe we can take this opportunity to earn the contribution points needed for the foundation-building period.
Mr. County Magistrate, you have a kind heart.
"The county magistrate has a very evil heart."
Yin Shiqing was on the second floor of the Mission Department, looking at the long queue below and the local monks with smiles on their faces.
This sir doesn't want to spend even a single spirit stone.
All contribution points are paid out. Wow, he even thought that when the performance appraisal comes, he will probably lose his position as Si Cheng.
Every time a monk came to exchange something, they would go to the county town to do so.
The imperial treasury is only available in county towns and above.
Although they will not be prevented from exchanging various items, there are unspoken rules that 30% or even 20% of the tasks each year are contribution value tasks.
To control the monks to exchange various items in the treasury.
Otherwise, how big a treasure house could be able to accommodate so many monks?
This time, Yin Shiqing could imagine how gloomy the faces of the treasury keeper of the County City Mission Department would be.
Although County Magistrate Chen said that he took full responsibility, Yin Shiqing was an experienced official and just listened to his words.
"well."
"We can only take advantage of now to get some spiritual stones."
“Someone come!”
A minor official pushed the door open and entered.
"grown ups."
"The progress in the wild is too slow. We will increase the contribution tasks in the wild a little bit. In addition, the price of the temporary identity token is 60 spirit stones. The extra ten will not be recorded. I will take eight and you will get two."
I saw a hint of disgust in the clerk's eyes.
"Don't complain about it being too little. Of the eight pieces I took, only three are mine. The rest belongs to the county magistrate!"
Yin Shiqing was a little annoyed.
The clerk suddenly realized, "My Lord County Magistrate, that's all right." In private, they all called Chen Shiyan the "Lingshi County Magistrate" and they only had Lingshi in their eyes.
Just then there was a noise outside.
"You are a cultivator from Qianyuan County. I thought you were kind enough to bring us here to exchange for identity tokens, but I didn't expect it to be fifty spirit stones each!"
"Do you think we are spirit beast cubs?"
"And this Qianyuan County, how can it be like this? This is not a robbery of spirit stones!"
Then there was a burst of noise.
"That's right, we can't possibly give you this spirit stone."
"Qianyuan County is going crazy for spiritual stones."
"Haha, fellow Taoists, you may not know yet, but the identity tokens you exchanged cannot be used to enter the county. If you want to enter the county, you need to pay 500 spirit stones!"
"It's dark. Too dark."
"Yes, he first coaxed us into taking the identity token worth fifty spirit stones, and then wanted to go into the city to take another five hundred. He took fifty more spirit stones from us for no reason!"
"Fellow Daoists, we won't hand over the spirit stones. I want to see what you can do with so many of us."
Amid the commotion, Yin Shiqing shrugged at the clerk beside him.
"Go and get the master. We can't handle it. There are several foundation-building monks inside. Oh, and tell the master about the price increase."
The clerk quickly went out the back door, raised his flying sword and flew towards the county government office.
After Chen Shiyan knew about this, he was slightly dissatisfied with Yin Shiqing, until the clerk said that Lord Yin had increased the price a little bit, then he smiled again.
The clerk complained in his heart that the nickname was really not wrong.
Chen Shiyan quickly flew over the Mission Department.
"Silence! Are you gathering here to rebel?"
The officials in the Mission Department, the surrounding yamen runners, and the local monks all saluted.
"Greetings, His Excellency the County Magistrate."
"Are you the magistrate of Qianyuan County? Your identity is not in conformity with the emperor's..."
A cultivator at the eighth level of foundation building was confident that he should be able to have a conversation with the county magistrate, so he started talking.
Before he could finish his words, Chen Shiyan's flying sword was pressed against his forehead.
The monks around him were a little angry. "Is there still imperial law? The county magistrate has done this. What do you think of the imperial law?"
Another fire spell hit the foundation-building cultivator who spoke first.
A spat of blood spurted out, and a little flame appeared on his body.
Chen Shiyan looked at the monks below with cold eyes.
The eyes of the Chain Qi monks who had just been angry instantly regained clarity.
Go to the Mission Department and queue up honestly.
Several other foundation-building cultivators also stepped back a few steps, moving a little further away from the two men, bowed to the sky, and went to buy the identity token worth five hundred spirit stones.
"Yin Se-kyung!"
"My lord, my lord, I am here."
"You can't even settle this little thing, so I'll only give you two dollars!"
Yin Shiqing smiled bitterly, "Thank you, sir."
"Seal his meridians and keep him outside the main hall of your Mission Department for three days."
"Ah, this, as you say." He didn't dare to say anything more, lest he lose another commission of a spirit stone.
"How dare you! What right do you have to humiliate us like this!" shouted the monk with the spirit sword against his forehead.
"Reason? Hahahaha, Yin Shiqing, find them a reason."
"Roaring in court? Inappropriate, inappropriate. Attacking the government office? What do you think of attacking the government office?" Yin Shiqing asked.
"you!"
Seeing that his meridians were sealed by Yin Shiqing, Chen Shiyan took back the magic sword.
Said to him who was collapsed on the ground.
"You're not satisfied with the reason? I'm the county magistrate of Qianyuan County, so I have the final say. Are you satisfied with this reason?"
Then his tone turned a little cold.
"You have to follow my rules here, or I'll chop you off!"
The monks who were queuing up and listening attentively leaned forward unconsciously.
Thinking about staying away from Chen Shiyan.
The cultivator at the eighth level of foundation building did not dare to say anything more. He truly felt the murderous intent.
At that moment, he was reminded of the feeling he had when he met those foundation-building cultivators during his Qi Chaining Period. Life and death all depended on other people's thoughts.
......
Tianhua County, the county seat, the second son of the county magistrate boarded a large flying boat.
"You are here to scout ahead, don't cause any trouble, especially don't provoke Chen Shiyan, remember that?"
"Don't worry, father. I will keep your words in mind."
"Well, that's good."
Standing on the deck of the flying boat, saying goodbye to his father, the county magistrate, below.
After turning around, his humble and warm smile instantly turned into a dark one.
Then he looked in the direction of Qianyuan County.
"Qianyuan County, County Magistrate Chen, I'm back again."
