When Kong Hanan said this, everyone was surprised.
Tianhun's face was full of suspicion, and he spoke directly.
"A plague is not like a flood. A flood might be caused by the River God or a water ghost. Think carefully before you speak!"
Kong Hanan laughed.
"If I do that, will you just admit defeat?"
In fact, Kong Hanan didn't need to argue with his Heavenly Soul.
This is a young man who is inexperienced. When it comes to playing tricks and scheming, he is confident that he can make the most of it.
But after all, the matter involved the perfection of his soul and whether his will was free, so he had to be careful.
The Sorcerer God had exploited his three missing souls and plotted against him. Although the Sorcerer God had been trapped in Wushan by the Dao Saint, who knew if any of them would escape? Who knew what the wizards in the Sorcerer God Temple would do?
If they had been content, where would the issue of scholarly talent in Shangjun and Beidi counties have come from?
What's more, Kong Hanan also needs to improve his strength.
Whether it is the ascension after the perfection of the three souls, or practicing with the Taoist Saint to obtain the next path to promotion.
Therefore, Kong Hanan must win this competition no matter what.
So this was a trap.
With Tianhun's young personality, what if he falls into the trap if I provoke him with words?
Wouldn't that mean that you can achieve your goal faster than completing Confucius' mission?
Kong Hanan narrowed his eyes unconsciously and looked at Tianhun.
It’s no wonder that Tianhun seemed to be really provoked by Kong Hanan.
His face flushed red and he opened his mouth to agree.
It is not known whether Confucius spoke intentionally or unintentionally.
"Okay, okay, young people should be motivated. Who are you referring to? Tell me now."
After Confucius's interruption, Tianhun calmed down a little and did not say anything.
Kong Hanan looked at Tianhun with regret.
What a pity...
But this is just a small trick. You really have to rely on your own strength. Kong Hanan doesn't care too much about it.
He bowed to Confucius and said, "That man is a native of Jiange County and meets the requirements of the Huangquan Division. However, his background is not good. He was originally a woodcutter in Fengyin Town and his given name is simply Ba."
Hearing that the person Kong Hanan mentioned had no surname, Kong Sheng couldn't help but frowned and asked.
"How strong is this person?"
Kong Hanan knew what Kong Sheng was worried about.
In Da Qi, people without surnames were mostly considered savages.
This savage is not the same as the hairy savage who ate raw meat and drank blood in his previous life. This is a description of people in the wild who are not included in the household registration.
Although the household registration system of Da Qi has become increasingly perfect, there are still some remnants of the past.
They were, or still are, uncounted.
Such people, not to mention whether they have any impact on social stability, their lives are mostly miserable, they have no extra money at home, let alone studying and writing.
It is neither reasonable nor moral to ask an uneducated person to serve as a county chief or a provincial inspector.
Kong Hanan said first: "Although his skills are not good, he has a strong learning ability. Not long after knowing me, he has already learned to write."
This goes straight to the root of the problem.
Kong Hanan then continued, "He comes from a poor family, so he's more cautious and careful in everything he does. He's also very dedicated to his cultivation and has a natural talent. Just by watching me cast a spell to summon underworld demons, he grasped the essence of it. Currently, he can summon all the demons and monsters under my underworld, making him more than capable of handling most common strange incidents."
This is the ability of a woodcutter.
Next, Kong Hanan prepared to give him another credit.
"Moreover, this person will be an important helper in my efforts to quickly quell the plague in Nanjun. As long as he comes, I will be fully confident."
Kong Hanan's boasting actually made both the Sage Kong and the Sage Dao interested in the Woodcutter Ba.
The smiling expression returned to Confucius's face.
"If that's the case, then let's call him over and see. The name Woodcutter Ba is a bit unrefined, as he makes a living by cutting wood. How about I let him use Qiao as his last name? He will be called Chopper from now on, what do you think?"
How about you big-headed ghost uncle!
Kong Hanan almost couldn't hold it in.
It’s not that he has any prejudice against Chopper, it’s just that the anime character in his previous life was too deeply rooted in people’s minds.
A man who is currently working hard to restore his masculinity was called a cute name. Kong Hanan felt ashamed to face Qiaofu Ba.
Before Kong Hanan could offer any opinion, Dao Sheng sniffed.
"Well, I know what poor people think. Once they become rich, they rarely want to talk about their past. Qiao is fine, but forget about Ba. I did some calculations and found that he and Kong Xiaozi met at the tomb of King Wen of Shu, and he often traveled on the road afterwards. Why not call him Qiao Daoling?"
Confucianism is not yet the only orthodox doctrine in this world, not to mention the malicious intent directed at names in the future. Single-character and double-character names have no distinction in status.
The two words "Daoling" sound somewhat familiar, but considering that the world is different and people's paths are also different, Kong Hanan didn't think it mattered much.
At least Qiao Daoling is a much better name than Chopper...
Since the Taoist Saint had spoken, the Kong Saint naturally had no objection. Qiao Daoling was currently only discovered in the wild by Kong Hanan and did not belong to either faction.
The two saints gave one a surname and one a given name, which was just right for the two factions in the court, and was also enough favor for the woodcutter Ba.
Confucius nodded in agreement and instructed Meng Yu to go and fetch Qiao Daoling.
I just wonder how Governor Xie would feel when he heard that his position was taken by a woodcutter.
Kong Hanan doesn't care what he thinks. Is he very familiar with him?
The Hengshan incident was over, and the two saints each had their own things to do. Kong Hanan was also preparing to return to the Ghost Kingdom to take a look at his newly acquired territory.
By the way, send the woodcutter Ba from the underworld back to Jiange County to prevent Brother Meng from making a wasted trip.
Hengshan's soul was not in much trouble. Now he was in the hands of Kong Hanan. I don't know whether it was for the purpose of establishing a good relationship or for other reasons, but after leaving the two saints, he began to try his best to please Kong Hanan.
"Donor Kong, do you know why the Dao Saint named you the Heavenly Punishment Sword? And why is the Kong Saint so ecstatic?"
After all, he was once the emperor and would be the Pure Yang Zhenren chosen by the Taoist Saint in the future. It was possible that they would meet each other frequently in the immortal world in the future. Kong Hanan was still somewhat polite to him.
"Emperor, please speak."
As they entered the Ghost Kingdom and were in the sandy area, a demonic wind blew up a cloud of yellow sand. It was Li San who led the team to support them and happened to hear Hengshan's words.
"Because this sword of yours, Donor Kong, can kill gods."
Li San chuckled, "How surprising! A witch god and his clone have already been slain with this sword."
Hengshan's soul was bound into a ball. He wanted to shake his head, but he couldn't move. In the end, the palm-sized ball just rolled left and right in Kong Hanan's hand.
"The laws on your sword also have the property of deprivation. As your understanding improves, perhaps you can also use the other laws on this sword?"
"You know what this means."
Kong Hanan's face changed slightly. He certainly knew what this meant.
