Chapter 14 The case, get help

Zhang Wenfeng withdrew his hands, the light blue light on the silver dharma plate disappeared, and he clenched his fists in return with a few words of thanks.

Xianlingguan also has a test disk passed down from generation to generation. Time has left an old yellow on it that cannot be wiped off, which can test simple physical attributes.

He never thought that he could test his Yuan Qi.

Wu Ganping put away the qi testing plate, and took out a white jade tablet about three inches in diameter from the cabinet.

On the front of the brand, there are two lines of seal carving, namely "Da'an Daoluyuan" and "Xiling County, Yuanyang County". Cloud engraving.

He blessed a little Yuan Qi on the white jade card, handed it to Zhang Wenfeng, and explained:
"It will take two or three months for the official Daolu Academy's loose-person identity card to be applied for from the capital. This temporary jade card, Zhang Daoyou, you should hold it first, and it can be used in Xiling County. The [-] taels of the moon will be counted from now on, and come to the branch to collect them on the first day of the next month. Fellow Daoists, please keep the jade plaques, don’t lose them, and return them to me at that time.”

Zhang Wenfeng solemnly took the white jade card with both hands and said, "Thank you, Master Wu."

One tael of silver can be exchanged for one thousand copper coins (consistent money), and two coins can buy a pound of brown rice.

To send charcoal in the snow, ten taels of silver is a huge sum of money for the tight-knit Taoist temple. It can be regarded as a solution to his urgent needs. He doesn't have to worry about eating meat, and there will be benefits every month in the future, and the living water will flow forever.

Of course, the monks spend a lot of money, and the money is like running water, he doesn't know yet.

On the two standard files that Wu Ganping took out, he filled in his identity information on the ultimatum with a writing brush and signed his signature in the lower left position, so that it could be reported and a special person would verify it.

The Daolu Academy's identity as a scattered person in the Huaqi Realm enjoys certain privileges within the territory of Da'an.

In the future, when you advance from the Qiqi Realm to the Gradient Realm, you can go to any county or prefecture branch of the Daolu Academy to assess the status of the "Master", and the status of the Master includes two stages: the Gradual Wei Realm and the Free Realm.

After being promoted from the Freedom Realm to the Golden Core Realm, you can go to the prefectural city or the capital to assess the status of a "real person". The real person identity includes two stages: the Golden Core Realm and the Guiyi Realm.

The last is the identity of "True Monarch", which belongs to the honorific title of the detached cultivator.

Loose people, masters, real people and true monarchs, each identity represents different privileges and can obtain corresponding cultivation resources.

These details are hidden, and Patriarch Xuanmu explained it clearly in the booklet "Anecdote of the Inheritance of Immortal Spirit View".

Much of the information that his master had learned from word of mouth from the previous Guanzhu was incomplete.

The establishment of Daolu Academy and various rules and regulations were drawn up by the group of monks who were about to ascend when Da An was founded more than [-] years ago. After so many years, although the rules have been changed, the general framework will not change.

The three sat down to chat again, and the atmosphere became more harmonious and intimate.

Wu Ganping explained the current rising tide of spiritual energy, the imminent social unrest, and the various rules and rights of the Daolu Academy, and told Zhang Wenfeng that in the future, he could go to the Daolu Branch to look up various classics and gave it to him. A key was assigned to him in a room for office in the Daolu Branch.

This is the treatment of the first Huaqi cultivator who has been registered in Xiling County.

If he wants to win over this new fellow Daoist, of course he has to investigate some time.

After explaining the things that should be explained clearly, Wu Ganping said again: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, tell me in detail the case of the thief using sorcery to harm people. You are now a member of the Daolu Academy, arresting demons and suppressing evil spirits is our foundation. share the responsibility.”

He glanced at the dark green scabbard on Zhang Wenfeng's waist.

This sword does not seem to be of ordinary quality?

Zhang Wenfeng chose to take the assessment first to become an individual from Daolu Academy, after careful consideration.

Only by becoming a fellow, the weight of his words will be valued by the other party.

Turning an unfavorable thing into a favorable thing, and a passive one into an active one, makes him not face a group of evil thieves alone, but a collective.

Immediately, he was framed by the thief with a paper talisman, and he broke through to the Qi Qi realm without dying. Then he set up a plan to use the ghost to attack a fellow thief early this morning, and caught some clues to hide the thief.

Then fight with the two thieves who were in ambush and a white zombie, kill one of the female thieves, dismember the white zombie, etc.

He took out the thin wooden box and opened the lid to reveal the ten poisonous needles with dark blue hidden weapons inside. He also took out the "Blood Devil Yin Ghost Repelling Curse" paper figurine from his sleeve pocket and asked the two of them to check it out.

He has used cinnabar ink to erase his specific birthday characters on the paper figurine, and remove the tied hair.

For true cultivators, the bloody ghosts and ghosts drawn by the uninitiated should not be on the table and will not play a big role.

He was so cautious in order to take precautions and not cause trouble for himself.

In case, someone gets his birth date, plus his hair, and uses the unknown immortal technique that he is still crossing the river by feeling the stones.
Those who have not entered the Dao have the means to use paper figurines to harm others, not to mention the means of cultivators?
In short, it is not a bad thing to be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years.

Taoist monks are strict and true, but they won't be ignorant of cultivation.

Wu Ganping and Fu Gujing checked several items respectively. Wu Ganping pinched the end of one of the poisonous needles with two fingers, observed for a moment, and said, "Daoyou Zhang, you just said that Lu Jinzhong, who suffered from backlash, explained The origin of the thief, what is 'Sheng Zi'?"

"He didn't finish speaking, and he was assassinated by his fellow thieves. Should it be these two words?"

Zhang Wenfeng was a little unsure, he didn't have time to confirm with Lu Jinzhong.

Wu Ganping nodded thoughtfully, and said to Fu Gujing: "Old Fu, you and Lao Wu go to the county office. At this time, Youxi in Hexi Town should send Lu Jinzhong's body to report the crime, you and the county lieutenant. Sir, take over, take the corpse and all the items found with it back to Daolu Branch, we will take over this case."

Fu Gujing put down the paper talisman, stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Yes! I'll do it now."

He smiled at Zhang Wenfeng again, turned around and went out.

Wu Ganping said in a negotiating tone: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, can these evidence items be temporarily left in the Daolu Branch?"

Zhang Wenfeng could take it out, but he had no intention of taking it back, but Wu Ganping's respectful attitude made him useful, and said with a smile: "Master Wu is very polite, when the time runs out, please take this 'Blood Devil Yin Ghost Repelling Soul Curse'. Just give it back to me, and it's useless for me to take other items."

"Sure, the paper figurine should be returned."

Wu Ganping stood up with a smile, and said to Zhang Wenfeng who followed him: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I won't leave you much today, the business is important, you should go back to the Xianling Temple first to prevent the thieves from stealing the evidence. Later in the afternoon, I will send someone up the mountain. Go, retrieve other evidence, and leave human hands to assist in protection."

"Zhang is waiting."

Zhang Wenfeng clasped his fists and said goodbye.

Wu Ganping returned the gift, and when he was about to reach the door, he suddenly remembered something, stopped Zhang Wenfeng, and said in a low voice:
"Master Qiyue of Jiuhe Palace, sent someone to send a letter with flying pigeons yesterday morning, asking our Daolu Branch of Xiling County to assist in a secret investigation to see if there are any people who have suspended their lives and returned to the sun in the past three days. This kind of 'deceitful corpse' thing can't be concealed locally, and it should spread, so please pay attention to it."

Zhang Wenfeng's heart tightened, he nodded silently, and said, "I will pay attention to this matter."

Jiuhe Palace is a famous Taoist resort in Yuanyang County, and few Taoist priests in nearby prefectures do not know it.

Four years ago, when he was just about to serve his master Yunyou Visiting Friends, he visited the Nine Crane Palace, which is much more famous than the Xiaomen Xiaohu's Xianlingguan. heyday.

Unexpectedly, he used the golden rooster to return the sun and became attached to the Jiuhe Palace.

He was secretly glad that he was stopped by the rural Taoist priest and did not borrow the old grandfather's body to return it to the sun.

Otherwise, I'm afraid that it will be a troublesome matter that can't be said for good or bad.

Taoist monks are also human beings. Although they are bound by various rules, their human nature is different. There are also many Taoist monks who use sorcery to harm people like Lu Jinzhong. Why should he bet on the compassion of others?
Then he hesitated for a while, looking at Wu Qianping, as if he didn't know how to ask some questions.
