Although, Wei Xianzun’s perspective was not wrong in some aspects.
The current situation in Jingzhou and the confrontation with the White Lotus Demon Sect are indeed "doing something big".
However, would Mr. Fang really confront the White Lotus Sect just to uphold the laws of the Wu Kingdom?
You know, the inspector from the provincial capital, Mr. Ronghuo, simply "disappeared". When the officials were clearing the ruins, the lotus demon had already disappeared without a trace of debris left, and the same was true for Mr. Ronghuo.
Mr. Ronghuo just left, and Zhang Jingsheng didn't believe it.
They had received the decree from the provincial government, so there was no reason why Ronghuo, as the Supervisory Commissioner, couldn't receive it. For Ronghuo, the best option was to stay in Linge County.
As for the Inspector having the intention of surrendering to the enemy and escaping, this is completely impossible, because the other party is also completely within the legal system of the Wu State like them, and is subject to very strict contractual restrictions, so he can only fight against the White Lotus Demon.
Therefore, the missing Mr. Ronghuo must have literally disappeared from this world.
At that time, the White Lotus Demon was already unable to take care of himself, and the only one who could make the Inspector disappear was that person.
Daring to directly kill the inspector appointed by the court, what is the difference between this and what the demons of the White Lotus Sect did.
Of course, Zhang Jingsheng believed that Mr. Fang did have the intention to oppose and even fight against the White Lotus Sect, but the reason could definitely not be for the laws of the Wu court.
Therefore, Mr. Fang has other ideas and purposes.
What he meant by 'doing great things' was definitely referring to another thing.
Furthermore, there is another piece of evidence.
What Mr. Fang said can give them a third way to survive.
Although Zhang Jingsheng was not very familiar with the orthodox Weird Dao practice system, he knew the details of his own imperial system of ordination.
The way to save one's life, whether it is repairing the legal network or taking on a new official position, is essentially to receive the certificate again and reintegrate into the court system.
Finding something new to rely on is the only way to save your life.
This is also what Mr. Fang said about the third way.
But if I receive the ordination certificate again, does it have to be from the Wu court?
The more Zhang Jingsheng thought about it, the more scared he became.
In the end, I can only abandon what I was thinking.
"Your Excellency, the County Master, is right!"
My boss's idea must be right and must be right.
Just as Zhang Jingsheng was praising him, he thought of something and stared straight at Wei Xianzun.
Wei Xianzun noticed something and looked at Zhang Jingsheng with a smile:
"Jingsheng, what's wrong? Do you have anything else to add?"
Zhang Jingsheng shook his head. "No, I just thought... I still have a lot to learn from the County Master."
My boss is an expert, a real expert.
PS: I have a lot of social engagements recently. I will be free after the eighth day of the Lunar New Year and will update more often.
This chapter is a two-in-one 4k chapter.
Chapter 119: Luck
After Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun communicated with each other, they no longer hesitated and immediately rushed to Fang's mansion.
Fang was naturally in the mansion during the New Year's Eve.
Looking at the two people in front of him, Fang Suichu, who was sitting on a throne, nodded.
"Yes, it came quite quickly."
Although there is a difference between immortals and mortals, it does not mean that there is no connection between them.
The immortal way and the human way are interconnected and even influence each other.
For example, when recruiting disciples, they must be selected from among ordinary people.
For example, the construction of the sect facilities on the small piece of blessed land that Fang Suichu obtained is currently being carried out by a large number of laborers.
Then there are various resources for cultivation.
The path of immortal martial arts does not require human materials, but the initial foundation building requires a large amount of tonic rice, flour and meat.
Therefore, it is not enough to just establish a sect, but it is also necessary to lay a foundation.
Although the invasion of Jingzhou by the White Lotus Sect was beyond Fang Suichu's expectations, it did help him to some extent.
Most of the laws in Jingzhou had been broken, which was just the right time to get rid of the old and establish the new.
Fang Suichu did not have much intention to kill court officials like Wei Xianzun.
One reason is that people like Wei County Master Zhang Jingsheng are not normal strange cultivators, but are still human beings in essence.
Secondly, the trick of this system mainly lies in the "official position". If the position is not destroyed directly, killing the person sitting in the position will be of no use at all.
Thirdly, aside from the parts related to the treacherous path, this system was indeed a ready-made framework of order. If they were all killed, it would be much more difficult to train qualified managers and a complete team.
Fang Suichu thought that he didn't have the time to waste on such things.
Fang Suichu snapped his fingers, and two golden lights emerged from his fingertips and sank into the eyebrows of the two men.
Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun were now completely ordinary people, so naturally they couldn't see the golden light. But after the golden light penetrated their bodies, they both reacted, feeling as if something had filled their previously empty hearts. The rootless duckweed was once again fixed, with a place to rest.
Fang Suichu lowered his arms and looked at the two of them again.
What he saw was not the superficial appearance of the two people, but something deeper.
Specifically, it is 'luck'.
Everything has its own spirit and form. Even the cunning ways have their own special spirit.
As early as the Tongmai realm, Fang Suichu's five senses were enhanced, and he had the ability to observe qi, or it could be said to be a talent.
Now that the bridge between heaven and earth has been opened and the orifice has been refined, one can see even more clearly.
In Fang Suichu's eyes, there was a gray-black aura above Linge County.
Before today, this gray-black energy had been condensed and formed, representing the law and order of the Wu Kingdom in Linge County. However, at this moment, this gray-black energy was scattered and overflowing.
As the golden light penetrated into the bodies of Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun, white and red energy surged out from their foreheads, sweeping away the original decadent and dead aura.
The white and red energy above their heads transformed into two carps. As they swam, faint golden ripples spread out in all directions, replacing the large area of gray and black strange energy that originally covered the county.
A golden seed was planted in the light golden ripples.
This seed is called [Seed of Luck] and it was the reward Fang Suichu received after killing the Inspector who came from the provincial capital.
In Fang Suichu's opinion, the originally chaotic system is now becoming more normal.
The adventure event triggered by killing Ronghuo this time was that because he protected the peace of an area, the messenger specially gave him a seed of luck.
There was nothing wrong with it - the White Lotus Demon came to Linge County with ill intentions. After tearing apart the laws of the week, he was bound to destroy the entire county and use the people there as materials for casting spells.
It was because of my presence that the White Lotus Demon had no choice but to sacrifice myself.
The function of this seed of luck is very special. To put it in a way that is more understandable to modern people, it is like the base vehicle in a strategy game, used to build bases and main cities.
By planting this seed, you can build an order system centered on yourself within a specific range and reap good fortune.
Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun were originally the center of the law and order here. At this moment, Fang Suichu "enlightened" the two of them and incorporated them into his own order. The effect was remarkable, and Fang Suichu's "order" quickly covered the entire Linge County with the two of them as the medium.
"Okay, now your lives are safe, and you will be family from now on." Fang Suichu nodded to the two of them.
Fang Suichu was not worried that the two would rebel against him, because if they had rebellious thoughts, they would inevitably suffer the backlash of their luck before taking action.
The same applies to the laws of the Wu State. Officials appointed under the laws of the Wu State cannot commit acts of rebellion. If they do, they will only face more serious backlash, and losing their lives will be a small matter.
If it was before the laws of the Wu State in Jingzhou were torn apart, Fang Suichu would have to go through some trouble to enlighten the two of them.
The voice came from the front. When Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun looked at Fang Suichu again, they felt that the image of Mr. Fang in their eyes seemed to have changed.
Although there was no change in his body appearance, both of them felt that he seemed to have become more majestic, which made them subconsciously convinced.
"First, I want you to do three things."
Fang Suichu didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.
"Please speak." Wei Xianzun quickly saluted to show his respect and obedience.
"The first thing to do is to reappoint the clerks after returning to the county government office."
Wei Xianzun and Zhang Jingsheng were somewhat puzzled, as the reappointment seemed a bit unnecessary.
Indeed, the number of officials has not increased or decreased, and no personnel changes have occurred, which seems to have no impact on actual matters. However, the intention of Fang Suichu's arrangement is to make the meaning of doing things more important than the actual meaning.
"Second thing, I remember there are quite a few temples inside and outside the city. Seal them all and demolish them."
There is "faith" in this world, which is "Shinto", but this path is also included in the path of evil.
Weird practitioners and even spirits and ghosts can obtain directional weird inspiration through sacrifices.
For example, the Tianchan Temple, the former local tyrant in Linge County, has a temple in the city dedicated to the Taoist master Xuanshen and the Taoist tradition of Tianchan Temple.
Of course, after Fang Suichu eradicated Tianchan Temple, the temple of Tianchan Temple in the city was immediately demolished by people sent by the county government.
However, even so, there are still some temples inside and outside the city. Some of them are even built by the government, dedicated to by the government, and sacrifices are held during specific time periods.
Chapter 120 Normal and Abnormal
The escort leader Zhu, whom Fang Suichu met in Shuzhou, used the method of "inviting the gods" to escort his convoys, which was actually related to this kind of sacrifice. Through sacrifice, he asked the sacrifice master to grant him power.
The construction of temples by strange cultivators is similar to "inviting gods".
However, a spiritual cultivator could only build a small temple within the area of a county. After all, their status was limited, and they did not have the ability to sense spiritual inspiration. Unless they used special sacrificial instruments, such as the dart flag carried by Zhu Biaotou earlier, the scope of inspiration could be expanded, but it would definitely not exceed the area of a state.
For example, most of the temples officially built in Linge County are temples worshipped in various states and counties across the country.
The master behind this is either the master of the various high-grade True Evil Dao veins that have strategic cooperation with the Wu Kingdom, the True Evil Master, or simply the True Evil Master of the Wu Kingdom itself.
After hearing Fang Suichu's second order, Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun also subconsciously frowned.
Based on the knowledge they had about practicing the cunning way, they had guessed some of the meaning behind this order.
The extra sacrifices were actually equivalent to a portion of Linge County's strange cultivation resources being divided up. In their view, Mr. Fang simply wanted to cut off these cultivation resources and use them on himself.
It is understandable and acceptable that extraordinary times naturally require extraordinary measures.
Moreover, Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun also understood that it was not just Mr. Fang, but probably other blood talisman spiritual secrets in Jingzhou would do the same.
Regardless of whether they were against the White Lotus Sect, whether they fought or fled, or simply surrendered, they had to make a quick buck. The more critical the situation, the tighter the situation, the more they had to make a quick buck.
However, Fang Suichu's next words shattered their original thoughts.
"From now on, as long as I am here, no human sacrifice activities will be allowed in Linge County."
"Anyone who dares to do this again will pay with his life."
Fang Suichu never mentioned the matter of gathering resources, but instead issued such an order.
"Then there's one last thing... abolish everything related to the blood tax."
"Not just the blood tax, all laws related to the collection of cultivation materials must be abolished."
Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun could no longer conceal the surprise on their faces.
Blood Talisman, Blood Talisman... Lingmi is vying to obtain this Blood Talisman, isn't it just for the stable resources it contains?
Without this offering, where would the resources for cultivation come from?
Fang Suichu's last instruction completely confused Zhang Jingsheng and the others.
Fang Suichu continued, "Without the blood tax, there's no need for the human resources market in Linge County."
"But the people inside shouldn't just let them go home like this."
"When the time comes, you will register and half of them will be sent to Fangxian Mountain for me."
Fangxian Mountain is the mountain where Tianchan Temple was originally located. The mountain now belongs to Fang Suichu, so he naturally gave it a new name.
After hearing Fang Suichu's words, Zhang Jingsheng and Wei Xianzun calmed down again.
