Bai Yueshan, the official in charge of admiring good deeds in the capital, was sitting in a small pavilion and playing the piano.
Zhao Baijiao looked at a group of judges and did not dare to speak for a while.
The ranks of this group of judges range from high to low, ranging from sixth-grade lieutenants to ninth-grade officials.
They came to receive rewards, holding horns of different lengths in their hands, waiting for Bai Yueshan to redeem his merits.
Bai Yueshan played two songs, rested for a while, ate a piece of cake, drank a cup of tea, and looked at everyone silently.
Everyone stretched their necks to look at Bai Yueshan.
Putting down his teacup, Bai Yueshan ate another piece of cake and then started playing the piano.
All the judges were angry!
"What on earth does this mean? I've been here for three days, and I've only listened to him play the piano, but I haven't heard him speak at all!"
"Everyone, don't worry. Doctor Bai's temperament is just like this. This may be a test of our sincerity."
"Is the temptation coming? I've heard all about it. Bai Yueshan has turned into a fool. This merit cannot be redeemed from him."
"Why can't you cash it out? Why don't you talk about the Taoist rules? If you can't cash it out today, I won't leave!"
Zhao Baijiao didn't know how to deal with it. In the past, Ma Shangfeng handled the matter of rewarding kindness, but since he went to Qiancheng Kingdom, the department of rewarding kindness has never been opened again.
Lu Yanyou had told him that when he met a comrade who came to redeem his merits, he could not say that Dr. Bai was not good, he could only say that the time had not come yet and wait until Ma Changshi came back to deal with it.
No one knows when Ma Changshi will come back, but more and more judges are waiting to reward good deeds.
One inch for punishing evil is worth ten merit points, and one inch for rewarding good deeds is worth two hundred merit points. The number of meritorious deeds for rewarding good deeds is so huge that it is impossible for the judges not to care about it, and the division of rewarding good deeds seems to be starting to fight.
"Zhao Baijiao, please explain to me clearly what Doctor Bai means!"
Zhao Baijiao panicked: "I, what should I say, it depends on Doctor Bai's wishes. Doctor Bai, Doctor Bai said the time has not come yet."
"When will the time come!"
"It's only natural to come and redeem your merits. Why are you waiting for the right time?"
The situation seemed to be getting out of control. Fortunately, Baijiao was lucky today. At the critical moment, Ma Shangfeng appeared.
"What are you making a fuss about, what are you yelling about? Is this where you are making trouble?" Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward to calm everyone down.
One of the lieutenants said with an aggrieved look: "Ma Changshi, we have to be reasonable. The Good Rewards Department is the place where we can redeem our merits. We have been waiting for several days, but we can't just let our merits be blackmailed!"
"Who wants to blackmail your meritorious service?" Xu Zhiqiong sat next to Bai Yueshan, "You have to follow some rules in exchange for meritorious service. It's first come, first served. Stand in a row for me!"
The judges rushed to stand in a row, and Xu Zhiqiong first took over the crime from a bookkeeper.
It is not easy to earn merit points for the eighth-grade master bookkeeper. This crime is up and down every inch. Xu Zhiqiong checked it correctly and gave him two hundred and twenty merit points.
As soon as the meritorious service was given out, Xu Zhiqiong felt something was wrong with his body.
The fourth-grade judge went out after being rewarded for his merits, and his cultivation had improved. Xu Zhiqiong knew this, but the improvement this time was too great.
At the beginning, he rewarded good deeds twice, and received more than 800 meritorious deeds in total, and his cultivation level also improved by more than 800 yuan.
This time, more than 200 were awarded again. Xu Zhiqiong fought several cold wars one after another. He felt as if he had rewarded at least 3,000 merit points this time, and his cultivation level had grown a lot.
What is the situation?
Could it be that the chief registrar just now had a special status?
Xu Zhiqiong stared at the chief clerk for a long time, and the chief clerk shrank his head in fear: "Ma Changshi, only two hundred and twenty pills. You didn't give me more, and I don't want more."
It was indeed true that this person was not Xue Yun pretending to be Xue Yun, Xu Zhiqiong fell into deep thought.
Why did he suddenly gain so much cultivation?
While he was thinking, the judge behind him was still waiting: "Ma Changshi, I..."
Xu Zhiqiong took a look at the merits and found that they were accurate. He was rewarded with 340 merits.
After a chill, Xu Zhiqiong felt that his cultivation level had only grown by 340.
Why doesn't it grow much this time?
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a while and understood something.
Shicai's cultivation has greatly increased, not only because of the reward for good deeds, but also because of Xu Zhiqiong's own good deeds.
Long Xiulian's subordinate Sun Qianli, the official who rewarded good deeds, once told Xu Zhiqiong that if the official rewarded good deeds, his cultivation level would increase if he rewarded good deeds or performed good deeds himself.
Xu Zhiqiong saved thousands of beggars in Qiancheng Kingdom. This was a great act of kindness. It was appropriate to improve his cultivation by more than three thousand.
I just didn’t expect that these more than 3,000 cultivation bases would be cashed in today.
The Judge's Way has been severely restricted in Qiancheng Kingdom. Not only is the Eye of Crime difficult to use, but there are also problems with the reward and punishment mechanism.
After figuring out the source of his cultivation, Xu Zhiqiong didn't think much more, and used his own inventory to reward the merits one by one.
After all the judges had left, Xu Zhiqiong counted the merits he had saved and found that there were still 1,122 left.
It hurts, but I have accumulated more than 5,000 cultivation points, and half of my journey to the next level has been completed.
There are evil people in Qiancheng State, so they don't have to worry about not being able to get away with their crimes. Xu Zhiqiong turned to Bai Yueshan and said, "Doctor Bai, follow me to a good place. That place can cure your disease."
Bai Yueshan was expressionless as he ate the pancake.
Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward and pulled Bai Yueshan, but Bai Yueshan shook Xu Zhiqiong's hand away fiercely.
What's wrong with this guy? Why is he so angry?
Zhao Baijiao reminded me: "You can't take food from Doctor Bai."
Bai Yueshan thought Xu Zhiqiong was trying to grab the cake.
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment and actually snatched the pancake.
Zhao Baijiao was shocked: "What are you doing?"
Bai Yueshan was furious, jumped up and fought with Xu Zhiqiong.
Zhao Baijiao was so frightened that she didn't dare to stop them. The two of them moved so fast that she couldn't even see their figures clearly.
Bai Yueshan suddenly grabbed Xu Zhiqiong's wrist and tried to snatch the pancake back.
Xu Zhiqiong buckled Bai Yueshan's forearm and quickly mobilized the power of imagery. In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared.
Zhao Baijiao was stunned on the spot, not knowing where the two of them had gone, so she could only sit in the small pavilion and wait.
…
In the Xingxiu Corridor, Xu Zhiqiong brought Bai Yueshan into the Siguo Room.
Prince Hong Huaxiao immediately came up to him: "Master, you are here, but you came early today. Do you miss the slave family..."
Halfway through his words, he saw someone else beside Xu Zhiqiong.
"Oh, what are you going to do?" Hong Huaxiao was very dissatisfied, "Serving two people at the same time is something this slave family can't handle."
"One, just one." Xu Zhiqiong pulled Bai Yueshan closer. Bai Yueshan ate the pancake and looked at Hong Huaxiao timidly.
"Do you recognize this person?" Xu Zhiqiong asked.
Hong Huaxiao stared at Bai Yueshan for a moment: "I think I've seen him before. He seems to have some contact with the man named Long."
"There are contacts, but they are not the same kind of people. Don't you want the best? It depends on your ability."
After saying that, Xu Zhiqiong quietly walked outside the door, closed the door, and left the two of them in the Siguo room.
Hong Huaxiao looked at Bai Yueshan. Bai Yueshan lowered his head to eat the pancake, but was afraid that Hong Huaxiao would come to snatch it.
Hong Huaxiao couldn't help laughing: "Look at how young you are, how come you behave like a child?"
Bai Yueshan protected the pancake and huddled in the corner, silent.
Hong Huaxiao felt that he was more and more cute, so he sat next to him and whispered softly: "Don't be afraid, my sister loves you."
Bai Yueshan was a little scared, but hugged Panzi tighter.
…
In the main hall, the master held the wine pot and sighed repeatedly: "You do this, but don't you feel ashamed in your heart?"
Xu Zhiqiong ate a piece of bacon, took a sip of wine and said, "Didn't you feel ashamed when you sent him to the meditation room to seduce me?"
The master sighed again: "Yueshan has suffered so much, yet you still treat him like this."
Xu Zhiqiong sniffed and said, "Treating a disease does not count as suffering. Does curing a disease or doing something good for him count as suffering?"
…
An hour later, Xu Zhiqiong entered the Siguo room.
"Your Highness, it's almost time to return to the sun."
Hong Huaxiao's face turned red and he smiled shyly: "Maybe I was a little impatient. Seeing that he was so dull, I couldn't grasp the balance for a while."
Xu Zhiqiong blinked and said with a puzzled look on his face: "What does it mean that you don't have a good sense of proportion?"
"That's right, I need to do it a few more times, more, more essence..." Hong Huaxiao was so embarrassed that it was difficult to even speak.
Xu Zhiqiong looked at Bai Yueshan, nodded and said: "It doesn't matter if you do it a few more times, but don't be so impatient when you can."
…
Zhao Baijiao was anxiously waiting in the small pavilion. When she saw Xu Zhiqiong sending Bai Yueshan back, she quickly stepped forward and asked, "Where did you take Doctor Bai?"
Xu Zhiqiong said: "I didn't say that before, I went to treat him."
Zhao Baijiao looked at Bai Yueshan and saw that his face was pale and haggard, as if he had suffered a lot.
Xu Zhiqiong warned: "Give Dr. Bai something to eat more. Don't always eat pancakes. Get some eggs and meat to nourish him. I'll come back tomorrow."
After Xu Zhiqiong left, Zhao Baijiao quickly helped Bai Yueshan sit down.
Seeing Bai Yueshan sweating profusely, Zhao Baijiao asked: "How did you cure the disease? Ma Changshi always loves to joke, so you must have suffered."
Knowing that Bai Yueshan would not answer, Baijiao still asked with concern for a long time.
Bai Yueshan sniffed and moved his lips, as if he wanted to speak.
Baijiao was startled: "Doctor Bai, you, you, do you want to talk?"
His lips trembled for a while, and some sounds suddenly came out of Bai Yueshan's throat.
"Whoo, whoo, whoo!"
He spoke!
Doctor Bai spoke!
…
Outside the city of Shenlin, in a house in Yangguan Village, Chang Decai taught the practice method, took out a box of silver, and said to the five eunuchs: "According to the rules we set before, tonight we should discuss merit and reward.
Zhao Jindong, you have recruited eight new disciples and are rewarded with eight hundred taels of silver."
Zhao Jindong waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Senior, this is my job, how can I dare to accept your reward?"
"How can I break the rules I set? Just take it!"
Zhao Jindong received the money, looking very proud, and even gave Li Quangen a special look.
Liu Yupeng accepted five disciples, Qin Yan accepted three, and even Yue Liusheng accepted one disciple.
Only Li Quangen has never accepted a disciple. This person's temperament is indeed too cautious.
After everyone received the reward, it was already getting late. After bidding farewell to Chang Decai, the five of them went to the Shenjun Hall separately.
Li Quangen and Yue Liusheng were walking together, approaching the outer city, Li Quangen suddenly smiled and said: "Xiao Liuzi, you have become more capable, you also accepted a disciple?"
Yue Liusheng had received a lot of advice from Li Quangen before, but he was a little dissatisfied with Li Quangen's words. He quickly explained: "These are all orders from seniors, and I just follow them..."
"That's all, you don't need to tell me more." Li Quangen shook his head and said, "I am a life-loving person, so we should act separately in the future."
As soon as they entered the outer city, Li Quangen deliberately separated Yue Liusheng and took a detour.
Yue Liusheng felt bad. He was grateful to Li Quangen for his advice, but he felt that this man was timid and had little courage.
When he walked outside the wall of the Divine Lord's Hall, Yue Liusheng was about to jump over the wall, but suddenly he felt his feet go soft and he missed the mark.
No! There's a trap!
Yue Liusheng was shocked. He wanted to rely on his agility to move to another place, but unexpectedly a snare suddenly fell and covered Yue Liusheng.
Yue Liusheng struggled hard, but couldn't break free.
General Shenji Jiang Shengqun came closer and said with a slight smile: "Yue Qianshu, where have you been in the middle of the night?"
When Yue Liusheng saw Jiang Shengqun, his heart immediately went cold.
He knew that this man had always been at odds with the chamberlain, and he also knew how ruthless this man was.
"I, I'm out of the palace on errands!"
"What errands are you on? Let me tell you."
"This is a secret mission, you can't tell outsiders!"
Jiang Shengqun nodded and said: "Yue Qianshu, you are really tough. When we get to the lobby of the Shen Ji Division, let's see how long you can keep your toughness!"
A school lieutenant came forward and said, "Should we interrogate him overnight?"
Jiang Shengqun shook his head and said, "There's no rush. Let's wait until early tomorrow morning and ask the Lord to review it together, and let him recognize our merits in person!"
