[The merit value storage container has been detected. Do you want to absorb it? 】
This line of words that appeared on the panel made Lu Bai lose his mind.
Merit value storage container?
It’s such a technical term, but it’s too inappropriate to appear in such a situation.
There is also a merit value in the official seal of the City God. What is the operation?
Lu Bai subconsciously dropped the official seal of the City God and pinched his official seal of the Jin Yiwei Zhen Fu Envoy. There was no movement on the panel. He replaced it with the confiscated official seal of the Jin Yiwei Sheren. The panel was still indifferent. Therefore, it was not the panel that was wrong, but the City God's official seal.
The official seal is indeed a storage of merit values.
I just don’t know if all the official seals of the city god are like this, or if only the official seal of the city god in front of me is like this.
Forget it, who cares, it's not too late to verify it later. The most important thing now is to absorb the merit points delivered to the door, so Lu Bai chose "yes".
Then, his merit value on the panel jumped once, and then fell silent.
Lu Bai calculated that he probably got more than 20,000 merit points, which was not too much. It was not even as much as killing a vicious villain, but the meaning was very different. According to Lu Bai's guess, the merit points on this official seal
, or it comes from the City God's accumulated virtues and good deeds - since it is considered very efficacious by the neighbors, I think this City God has done some practical things; or these merits come from the incense in the City God's temple, just like his birthplace.
Lu Bai guessed, raised his head, and saw everyone looking at him. The city god asked anxiously: "Sir, is there anything wrong with this official seal?"
Lu Bai rolled his eyes and threw the official seal to him, "Can you see what's wrong?"
The city god took it tremblingly, thinking: "Damn it, no way. Could it be that because I bought the official title with money, Taohuaguan gave me a fake official seal?"
He checked it over and over again, and finally returned it to Lu Bai, "Sir, I'm sorry for my poor eyesight, but I really don't see anything wrong. Could you please give me some advice?"
Lu Bai put the official seal aside, "There is nothing wrong with this official seal."
City God: "..."
Lu Bai was teasing him, and the City God didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Lu Bai ignored him and looked at the official seal on the table, thoughtfully. Since this official seal stores merit and the city god doesn't know about it, it is worth pondering. Only Lu Bai can extract the merit from this official seal.
, it still has another magical effect, but the city god doesn’t know about it.
If it really has a magical effect, then after the official seal stores the merits, it must be handed over to someone to extract the merits from the official seal. Based on Lu Bai's guess and further speculation, Lu Bai thinks that the Peach Blossom Temple is the most likely.
"When does Taohuaguan ask you to hand over the official seal?" Lu Bai asked tentatively.
"Hand the official seal back?" The City God was stunned for a moment, "Sir, you mean returning to Beijing to hang the official seal and report on your work?"
Lu Bai nodded slightly, "Not bad."
The city god said doubtfully: "The time for debriefing is not always ten years -"
Lu Bai interrupted him and said impatiently: "I'm talking about how long it will take before you go to Beijing to report on your work?"
The city god was terrified and was afraid of upsetting Lu Bai, so he deprived him of the opportunity to plead guilty and make meritorious deeds. He lowered his head and said, "Sir, I still have five years before I can return to Beijing to report on my work and hang my seal, and I will wait for the next appointment in Taohua Temple."
.”
Lu Bai nodded calmly, but suddenly realized something in his heart.
A job report once every ten years!
Lu Bai is now certain that the people of Peach Blossom Temple must have extracted the merits from the official seal. No wonder Peach Blossom Temple was at its peak back then. If Peach Blossom Fairy had not lost its divine favor, it would have continued to prosper. Their prosperity must be related to this kind of power.
The way to gain merit is inseparable from relationships.
At the same time, I have to say that this is also a good and effective way to check whether the city god and other Yin officials are qualified. The city god and others will not notice the fame in the official seal, and the official seal will truthfully record the merits of the city god. In this way, the officials
The good and bad are clear at a glance.
Thinking of this, Lu Bai suddenly had an idea: If he gave this official seal brand to one of his ghosts, let them accumulate merit, do more good deeds, increase the incense in the City God's Temple, and then take it back after a period of time, wouldn't he
Another source of merit?
This is a good idea!
I just don't know if this official seal can only be used by the city god appointed by Taohua Temple, and Lu Bai has no time to verify it.
So, Lu Bai thought of a compromise.
He asked the city god to wait in the house. He went out of the house, took out the ghost bowl in the yard, and released Lao San, one of the Taoshan dead ghosts who had been sealed by him in the battle of Yancheng.
"You, what do you want to do!" Lao Sangui glared at Lu Bai.
Lu Bai raised his eyebrows and said, "Call me daddy!"
"You -" Lao San's ghost eyes widened even more, and he was about to burst out with anger, but the ghost-exorcist talisman on his forehead disappeared in a flash, and he had to scream in frustration,
Lu Bai smiled and said, "That's right. Since you are under my control, you must obey me. Otherwise, you will be wronged and have to listen to me again. Why bother?"
He led the third ghost in and said to the City God: "Looking at how effective you are in dealing with the people, I thought about it and temporarily decided to let you temporarily take over the position of City God. However, for the sake of
To prevent you from hooking up with a decent woman again and causing such trouble, I have to leave a restraint around you——"
Lu Bai pointed at the third of the four ghosts in Taoshan, "This is one of my ghost servants. I will stay with you as a servant. I can supervise you. If you do evil things again or do things that are not conducive to the people,
He will punish you; secondly, when he is in the realm of cultivation and protecting you, he can also suppress those evil spirits that you cannot afford to offend."
Lu Bai said, throwing the official seal in his hand to the City God.
He wanted to let his men replace him and let the city god continue to be a scribe according to the previous punishment, but who knows whether this official seal must be used by others. In order to cause unnecessary trouble, Lu Bai decided to let him be the city god in name. In fact,
The city god above is of course the third ghost.
Under the coercion of the third ghost, the City God must do more good deeds and accumulate more merits in the future.
This is the order he gave to the third ghost, and the third ghost cannot disobey it.
The city god took it and thanked Lu Bai hurriedly. He felt that the happiness came too suddenly. He almost lost his job just now, but now he has been reinstated. This is too obvious. Although there is an extra supervisor around him, but
There is one more thug.
Because Peach Blossom Temple is now in decline, he has no backing as the city god, and he is not strong enough, so many evil ghosts dare to bully him. Here he can also bully the people who are afraid of ghosts.
It's different now. With this Lord Ghost, he, the city god, will not be bullied by lonely ghosts or passing evil spirits who occupy his bed.
Based on this calculation, he did not lose.
"Okay, let's go -"
Now that Lu Bai has found out these things, there is no need to keep the city god, "By the way, Miaogu will stay."
Miaogu bowed slightly, "Thank you, sir!"
The city god was still very reluctant to leave, but he had no choice but to leave under the close escort of the third ghost.
Lu Bai stood up and asked people to escort the Jinyi guards and others back. As for Miao Gu, "Your father has been released. If you want to go back, you can do it. You can torture them if you want. As for me, I promise you to watch them."
Death—will have to wait.”
After that, Lu Bai ignored her and went straight back to his room.
He solved another case, and now he had another chance to draw a lottery. On his way back, Lu Bai randomly drew a stack of ghost-expelling charms.
Lu Bai thought he could become a Taoist priest someday, so he drew some ghost-related objects in these draws.
