One side of the paper was painted with messy black dots, and the other side was painted with a dignified portrait.
There was an official wife who couldn't help but read out the words next to the portrait.
"Those who listen to the subtle ways of the poor can sincerely use them to turn dangers into peace and make them look beautiful."
Without the last four words, this advertisement would be quite high-end and classy, but with these four words, the style of the painting suddenly changes and the style is reduced sharply, almost like the small card behind the door of a hotel.
However, these officials and ladies all stared intently at those four words, and then involuntarily turned to Ma Bian's handsome face, which was so handsome that it brought disaster to the country and the people.
I don't dare to expect Ma Daxian's level. I would be satisfied with only one-tenth of his level, and I would be willing to live twenty years shorter!
No, thirty years!
Xi Tong, who had just connected to the Humanoid Teigu, immediately heard the system prompt about the increase in the power of faith.
This is not the ordinary power of faith, but the power of faith of fanatic believers.
After understanding the cause and effect of the matter, Xi Tong couldn't help but sigh, Confucius was right, only prodigal women and naughty children are difficult to raise.
It's really crazy.
In order to become more beautiful, she even dared to make such an ambitious goal of reducing her life span by thirty years. If Xi Tong was an evil spirit or an evil god, he could use special methods to deprive her of thirty years of life.
At the same time, the system prompt sounded in Ma Bian's mind, "Ding! A total of 10 fanatic followers have been developed. The task is completed."
As a result, Ma Bian, who had been smiling kindly just now, immediately turned serious.
"Female donors, please come back, I am going to practice cultivation."
Although they were ordered to be expelled, these official wives did not feel unhappy at all. Instead, they all saluted respectfully and then stepped back cautiously without making any sound during the whole process.
After making sure those people left, Ma Bian immediately bowed and saluted, "I've seen the immortal!"
The space passage opened, and the humanoid Teigu instantly appeared on the stool in front of Ma Bian.
"Ma Bian, you have accomplished the task well. You have developed 10 fanatical followers so quickly. The master will be rewarded for his merits. I have been ordered to come and teach you a piece of cultivation technique."
Upon hearing this, Ma Bian immediately fell to his knees with tears of gratitude.
The cultivation techniques of the Immortal family were actually obtained so quickly.
Although being an official is attractive, immortality is even more tempting.
"Thank you, Immortal Chang, for your generous gift!"
Ma Bian was clear about his status and he didn't even have the qualifications to be a cow or a horse, so he didn't dare to say thank you to the organization for its care and his teachers for their training.
Xi Tong nodded, and then passed on a foundation-building method for the world of immortal swords.
"The power of the Immortal Technique is too strong, and you can't bear it for the time being, so I will teach you a sword technique practiced by the peripheral disciples of the Shushan Sword Sect."
"By practicing this swordsmanship, you can control the sword with Qi as soon as you start, and move the sword as you wish; practice it to the point of perfection, and be able to decapitate a person from a hundred steps away; it is also the basis for flying with a sword."
Ma Bian immediately salivated.
Yujian Feitian doesn't dare to hope too much, but the ability to take a person's head from a hundred steps away is too powerful. With this ability, who else in the world can be his opponent.
"but……"
Upon hearing the Shangxian's words, Ma Bian's heart suddenly dropped three thousand times.
Xi Tong coughed, "However, the human world has been invaded by barbarians for many years, the spiritual energy of the dragon veins has dissipated, and the path to immortality has been cut off. The power of this cultivation method has also been greatly reduced."
Ma Bian breathed a sigh of relief, just give it a discount, it's better than nothing.
Xi Tong raised his hand and passed him a sword control skill.
Feeling what appeared in his mind, Ma Bian's eyes suddenly widened - has he learned it?
Xi Tong snorted, "What do you think the immortal family's methods are? If you practice in the summer and practice in the winter, how can you be free and easy!"
Ma Bian thought it made sense. If gods were to practice the practice of hanging beams, cones and thorns, there would be no fun at all.
Resisting the urge to play with the sword, Ma Bian knelt on the ground and said, "Shangxian, my fame has spread in officialdom, among the people, and in the cultivation world. I don't know what to do next?"
Xi Tong pretended to ponder for a few seconds, "Red-top businessman, naturally we should finalize the red-top matter first."
This played right into Ma Bian's wish. After all, he was still a bit obsessed with officialdom. Even though he prided himself on "becoming Jiang Ziya's man", he still wanted to be an official for a few days before he could get enough of it.
Ma Bian kowtowed and said with tears of gratitude, "Shangxian, autumn is coming soon. I have taken care of the gentlemen in the county. It should not be a problem to take the exam for a student member this year."
Xi Tong waved his hand, "Too slow!"
According to the imperial examination system of the Qing Empire, it would take three years to go from being a child student to the imperial examination, even if Xi Tong helped cheat and it was a smooth journey.
"It's not like I'm asking you to get the top score in the exam, just make some arrangements and buy an official position, and then you can slowly work your way up."
"Remember, this is the imperial court where slaves were founded. As a Han Chinese, the more capable you are, the more you will be wary of, and it is impossible for you to be reused."
this……
Ma Bian didn't know how to continue.
In his heart, he should take the right path to become an official and take the imperial examination. But after listening to the immortal's words, he suddenly understood.
I was born Han, and I was a Han from Lingnan. Because of the Southern Ming Dynasty, I was one head shorter than the Han from the north of the Yellow River, so it was impossible for me to be reused.
"I'm confused." Ma Bian bowed sincerely, "If I didn't get some guidance from an immortal, I would never be able to understand this until my death."
"You can teach me!" Xi Tong nodded, "The bannermen in Huangshi Town are getting along pretty well. Ask them for a military position, then go out to suppress bandits and catch thieves, earn some credit, and climb up the ranks step by step."
Suppress bandits? Catch thieves?
Ma Bian was stunned. The Manchu Qing Dynasty had ruled the world for more than a hundred years and had never let down its guard. Let alone rebellion, even saying a few ambiguous words could lead to the confiscation of the family and the extermination of the family.
I would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go.
If there are rumors of rebellious tendencies somewhere, or a court official is killed, just find the culprit. If you can't find it, just draw a circle on the map. There will be no humans or animals within a hundred miles of the incident location.
It is precisely this kind of cold-blooded and cruel method that the people avoid the forces that oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty like snakes and scorpions, fearing that one day their family will be surrounded by a circle.
Xi Tong sneered and said, "The sin of killing slaves is too serious, and the resentment is so high that the cries of injustice can be heard in the thirty-third heaven. If not for this, how could the elders of the sect pay attention to the things in the mortal world."
"In the past dynasties, there were laws of heaven to protect them, and animals were not allowed to become spirits, and dead people were not allowed to turn into ghosts. However, Jiannu went against heaven, and without the protection of heaven, there are countless monsters and monsters hiding in this world."
Ma Bian nodded and immediately remembered the country legend.
Many monks and Taoists with profound knowledge of Buddhism and Taoism were recruited by the Qing government and served as their minions. Every time a city was massacred and the land was destroyed, they would save the souls of the dead and incinerate the corpses to prevent them from transforming into corpses.
However, even so, there are still many folk legends about zombies biting people and ghosts seeking lives.
Ma Bian even witnessed the transformation of a corpse with his own eyes, but before the corpse could take shape, he was killed by a special team of monks and Taoists.
Did the Immortal ask me to catch ghosts and kill zombies?
