After Chu Chen saw the announcement from the Department of Ghosts and Gods, there were only four words in his mind - exceptional promotion!
This time, he was promoted in all aspects.
From being awarded a ceremonial body to being an immortal official, everything has progressed by leaps and bounds.
Let’s talk about the teachings first.
At the beginning, Chu Chen was awarded the "Tai Shang Boy One General", followed by ten generals, Immortal Officer Seventy-five Generals (granted to Qian Dao), Lingguan Seventy-five Generals (granted to Kun Dao), Finally, there is the Hundred and Fifty Generals.
There are age requirements for promotions from General 1 to General 150.
Ordinary Taoist boys begin to be awarded the "One General's Treasure" at the age of seven or eight, and it may take several years of practice before they have the opportunity to be awarded the "One Hundred and Five General's Treasure".
When Chu Chen entered the Taoist sect, he was an adult Taoist disciple with good character and meritorious deeds. This time he had made great achievements, so he was successfully and exceptionally awarded.
The "Tai Shang Boy Hundred and Fifty General Urn" is the highest magic urn among the ninth-grade boy urn. It is worn everywhere and protected by the gods of Tiancao - it is equivalent to a ninth-grade magic shield, which is quite practical.
Of course, compared to the conferment, what really excited Chu Chen was that he finally became an official immortal official as he wished.
Master Jixie is the honorific title of a ninth-grade immortal official. After officially becoming an immortal official, even if he is not from an authentic Taoist sect, he can still obtain the title of "Mage" at all levels.
As for the immortal position, Chu Chen was even more delighted.
Sure enough, like his master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, he entered the Arctic Exorcist Academy and joined the Beidi lineage.
The right judge of the Arctic Exorcism Academy belongs to the rank of ninth-grade immortal, responsible for testing the merits and demerits of ghosts and gods, exorcising evil spirits and subduing demons. Later, he can be promoted to the right judge, the left judge (the ninth rank), the left judge...
The Arctic Ziwei Emperor has a very high status in the Taoist sect and is known as the "Senior King of the Three Realms". He has independent divine institutions such as the Four Prefectures and Six Ministries in Heaven.
"Shangqing Lingbao Dafa" says: "The master of ten thousand stars, the sub-king of the three realms, second to Haotian, superior to Yuan Qi, is called the Ziwei Emperor of the North Pole, and governs the Ziwei Palace of the Zhongtian."
The Northern Emperor not only rules the thunder and the stars, but also governs the Netherworld of Fengdu. This Fengdu Emperor is the incarnation of the Ziwei Emperor.
In addition, Beidi Dafa is also very popular in Taoist sects from all walks of life. (Dachang Celestial Dynasty respected Beidi Dharma the most. It is said that Dachang Taizu received great help from Taoist monks from the Beidi lineage.)
It can be said that the Northern Emperor and the Jade Emperor sit side by side and jointly govern the heaven, the human world, and the underworld. Their power and status are so great that they are only inferior to the Taoist ancestor of the Sanqing Dynasty and the Jade Emperor Haotian.
Become part of Beidi's Dharma lineage, and your path to immortality will be far and wide.
In addition, Chu Chen's position in the Ghosts and Gods Department of Xin'an County has also been promoted.
He rose from being an ordinary patrol officer to being the deputy head of the third team of the general commander, assisting the general in charge.
This status is equivalent to the "Assistant" of the Du Guan, the status is second only to the "Deputy Du Guan", and the treatment is the same as that of the "Deputy Du Guan". It is specially designed for Chu Chen to be promoted to an immortal official. The entire Ghosts and Gods Department can take charge of everything. You can intervene.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of general leader and deputy head of the third shift are just a showman and cannot manage specific affairs.
However, Master Chu Chen is the current head of the Department of Ghosts and Gods, so no one in the Department of Ghosts and Gods would dare to interfere with him.
As his position was promoted, the salary that Chu Chen could receive naturally increased.
From the ninth grade Jixie mage, fifty jade coins per month;
The right judge of the North Pole Exorcism Academy has fifty jade per month;
The deputy head of the third shift of the county's Ghosts and Gods Department (the deputy chief is in charge of remuneration) is paid one hundred jade coins per month.
After adding up all the major immortal positions, his monthly salary will reach two hundred jade coins, which is much higher than the fifty jade coins of "deputy squad leader salary".
In addition, the County Ghosts and Gods Department also rewarded one thousand jade coins...
As soon as the announcement from the Department of Ghosts and Gods came out, the eyes of all the colleagues in the Department of Ghosts and Gods changed when they looked at Chu Chen. Some were envious, some were jealous, some were trying to please, and so on.
After midnight, Taoist Xu Ping summoned three groups of inspection envoys and clerks to make arrangements for personnel, errands and other arrangements for the next month as usual.
The open space in the courtyard of Ghosts and Gods Division.
There are three patrol teams of A, B and C, and the civil servants are stationed in separate classes.
On the high platform in the courtyard, five chairs are lined up.
Taoist Xu Ping is sitting in the middle, with Taoist Qingyun and Huang Mei on the left in charge, and Zen Master Lingkong and Chu Chen on the right...
Taoist Master Qingyun stood up and lectured:
"Comrades, Pindao read the Guangping County Ghosts and Gods Judicial Decree. From now on, Chu Chen, the right judge of the Arctic Exorcism Academy and the right judge of the Arctic Exorcism Academy, will be the deputy leader of the third class of the Xin'an County Ghosts and Gods Department, assisting the general manager."
Chu Chen quickly stood up from his chair and bowed his hands to the inspection envoys and civil servants from the Ghosts and Gods Department below.
"My qualifications are still limited. I will have to ask you to give me a lot of help in the future."
Taoist Master Qingyun said calmly: "Fellow Taoists, you are still not polite!"
Underneath, a group of inspectors from the Department of Ghosts and Gods, as well as civil servants, seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and they all bowed their hands.
"Let's meet with the general manager and deputy head of the third class!"
"You don't need to be polite."
After going through a cutscene, Chu Chen returned to his seat.
This means that Chu Chen has become one of the "talkers" in the County's Ghosts and Gods Department, firmly occupying the fifth position in the Xin'an County Ghosts and Gods Department!
I saw this slightly green young man sitting on a chair, looking down at everyone.
There were a group of patrolmen from the Ghosts and Gods Department below, and the civil servants felt quite complicated.
Huang Fugui and Zhang Xiucai, who had a relatively close relationship with each other, had mixed feelings in their hearts.
Not long ago, the three of them entered the Ghosts and Gods Division at the same time.
At that time, Chu Chen's strength was at its lowest, and except for one Du Guan master as his backer, the rest were inconspicuous.
But in the blink of an eye, Chu Chen not only became a good official, but also became a serious immortal official. He became their "boss", one of the managers of the county's Department of Ghosts and Gods, and sat side by side with the four governors.
The change was so big that the two of them always felt strange.
Especially Zhang Xiucai, who had just entered the first grade, thought he had caught up and it was time for him to show off his talent. However, what happened was Chu Chen's promotion, and he rode Juechen, leaving him far behind.
To say that I am not envious and jealous is definitely a lie.
It is true to say that I am happy for Chu Chen.
The two of them had complicated emotions and were speechless for a moment.
After becoming one of the "stewards" of the county's Department of Ghosts and Gods, Chu Chen seemed very low-key and not ostentatious at all.
At the morning meeting of the Department of Ghosts and Gods, he basically did not express his opinions. He followed the arrangements of his master, Xu Pingduguan, and the other three deputy superintendents. He only listened and did not speak, focusing on learning.
After the morning meeting, Chu Chen received an errand. He was in charge of "transcendence", "inspection", "demon slaying", "elimination of demons", etc.
Because he does not directly supervise Classes A, B, and C, his tasks such as "inspection", "demon slaying", and "elimination of demons" are all in vain, and he has no influence at all.
There is currently only one thing that directly falls under his jurisdiction, and that is "transcendence" - translating to the souls of the Chenghuang Mansion in Xin'an County who have exhausted their life span and the vicious ghosts whose anger cannot be eliminated.
"Transcendence" is a good job.
Why practitioners are vying to become "immortal officials" is for no other reason than "accumulating merit and virtue".
Delivering salvation for the dead souls is good for the dead souls, and it is also of great benefit to the mage. It is a good job that accumulates merits, and it is a rare "fat job".
Under normal circumstances, this kind of fat job will not fall into the hands of an "immortal official" like Chu Chen who has no real power. It is usually handled by four chief and deputy governors in turn.
However, this time around the "White Bone Empress" case, the other three deputy directors all mentioned that they were in Chu Chen's favor, so they had the opportunity to be promoted and owed a favor.
Before Taoist Xu Ping opened his mouth, the other three supervisors took the initiative to propose, and the process seemed extremely harmonious.
Chu Chen was naturally happy to take on this job. As long as he could accumulate merit, he was willing to do it.
