I have a heavenly book of merit and virtue

Chapter 202 The Imperial Conferment Ceremony! City God’s land! (Please subscribe!)
Three days later, there was solemnity outside the city of Changze County.

Because there is a big event today, the sealing ceremony.

With the help of the newly formed Changze County Supervisor Tiansi and the Longque Army, Yuantong, Zhang Tianzheng and the others have cleared out half of the towns in Changze County and eliminated the evil spirits who were entrenched in the towns and harmed the villagers and were arrogant. Clear it all.

It has to be said that after the Blood Moon, evil spirits spread throughout the Wu Dynasty.

As a remote and poor country, Xiangzhou has countless evil spirits breeding on its land.

Buddha statues that eat flesh and blood, old ladies crying in the bellies of yellow-flowered maidens, river gods that eat boys and girls, demons that suck spirits... and so on.

There are those with shallow Dao Xing, which is the level of nourishing essence, and there are also those with strong Dao Xing, which are comparable to refining essence and transforming Qi.

But in front of the blood-thunder cursed bird gun, all of this was reduced to ashes.

Thunder spells can restrain evil spirits, let alone two hundred thunder spells. The power of broken jade blood thunder spells and bird blunderbuss, the dead refining qi Shi Zhiyong has the most say.

Although Chen Yan did not know the plans of Laoshan Road and Qianzhong County, Chen Yan knew that these two companies would not leave him much time.

A long list records most of the 'good demons and ghosts' in Nagasawa County. Compared to the good ghosts, the number of good demons is indeed much smaller.

Therefore, with the Earth Demon Technique Tongyou as the background, there will be no mistakes in the edict, and the city god and the land will be prevented from happening.

Xu Ji carefully screened all the names in this list of 'good monsters and good ghosts', screened them on site, and only reported them to the young man after confirming that there were no omissions. Otherwise, if there is such a kind of double-dealing, cunning and deceitful way of saying one thing and doing another behind the scenes. On the contrary, the elements were self-defeating.

Zheng Fenghua was a scholar in San'ao County. There was a spirit-sucking evil spirit in San'ao County. Zheng Fenghua deceived the evil spirit outside the county and used his own essence as a lure. He wanted to kill the evil spirit with black dog blood and boy's urine, but he was discovered by the evil spirit and eventually died. . Note: The demon has been killed and San'ao County has been recovered.

Like this list of 'good monsters and good ghosts' in Changze County that Xu Ji reported to Chen Yan, most of the 'good monsters' recorded in it are domesticated pigs, dogs, cows, sheep, and chickens. Because they are close to humans, plus If the owner is kind, these poultry will often become closer to humans when they become spirits.

Qingniu Manghan, the Qingniu of Zigui Village, was originally a plowing cow in Zigui Village, and later became a spirit. He has a good nature and protects the village from evil spirits and ensures that the weather is smooth.

Outside the city, dense crowds of victims and ordinary people gathered around the outer edge.

If the host's family is mean and unrighteous and mistreats the poultry, if the poultry becomes a demon, it will also harm the host's family and bring disaster to one party and become a blood demon.

When Xiao Tiezhu heard this, he thought it was simply magical. He heard that there are gods in this world, and this Lord Governor might be a real god.

Of course, this is not absolute.

If it is a demon with a bad nature, no matter how deep it is hidden, its luck will still have karma. This is the law of heaven, and it cannot be hidden no matter how hard it is hidden.

Little Tiezhu didn't know where he was fleeing to. He only heard from his neighbor, Uncle Zhang, that as long as he fled to the county capital, he would have food to eat.

Later, Uncle Zhang died on the way to escape, starving to death, and he was still unable to eat a full meal.

Lu Qingyuan, a member of the former court and a person from Kangshan County...

Little Tiezhu was not sad. He buried his neighbor Uncle Zhang silently, and took off Uncle Zhang's clothes to keep warm. He ate wild vegetables and roots along the way. If he couldn't find anything to eat, he would bite his own hand.

He must stabilize the situation in Changze County before Laoshan Road and Qianzhong County retaliate.

Just like this, his eyes were dizzy with hunger, and he came to Changze County.

Xiao Tiezhu is one of these people.

This kind of incident is not uncommon in Nagasawa County, so whether it is good or bad, in addition to nature, the acquired environment is also the main factor.

Everyone looked at the figure on the newly built altar with a hint of reverence and awe.

This was the first time that Xiao Tiezhu knew that he had to defecate and urinate in the dry toilet. When he knew that this was an order from the young governor, Xiao Tiezhu was meticulous and conscientiously completed it.

Xiao Tiezhu was originally desperate, but he didn't expect that things would take a turn for the worse in just one day.

Rooster Pleiades…

After this period of cultivation, although the victims had to dig wasteland and dig ditches every day, their food supplies were full. The faces of the victims, who were originally sallow and skinny, gradually gained color, and their eyes were no longer empty and numb, but ignited. It's called the flame of hope.

Zheng Yong, a native of Shanyin County, Changze County, was originally a head catcher in Shanyin County, and later became a rat demon in Huo County. He fought against the rat demon alone to buy time for the people to escape, and finally died of exhaustion. Note: Cheng The rat demon has been killed and Shanyin County has been recovered.

Xiao Tiezhu was so scared that no matter how hungry he was, he would not dare to eat dirt.

So even with Xu Ji's list, Chen Yan still summoned the good demons and ghosts on the list outside Changze County, and then carefully screened them with the earth evil technique 'Tongyou', although Tongyou could not identify any demons and ghosts. Good or bad, but you can see the luck of a demon.

He was a little confused about why there was a big pit behind the toilet. He heard from the newly appointed mayor that the pit was filled with manure, which could fill the land, and the gas produced could also make a fire, making the winter no longer cold.

Looking at the young man's figure on the high platform, Xiao Tiezhu's eyes were filled with awe and admiration.

Yu Ziqing is a person from Baikou Ferry. There are catfish in Baikou Ferry that turn into spirits. He calls himself the God of Baikou Ferry and specializes in eating boys and girls. When Yu Ziqing sees that the children at the ferry are being eaten constantly, Yu Ziqing marries Bai Kou Ferry with herself as a maid. The God of Koudu River wanted to assassinate the God of Baikou Du River on his wedding day, but he was weak and died at the hands of the God of Baikou Du River. Note: The God of Baikoudu River has been killed and Baikoudu has been recovered.

Later, because of his young age, he did not follow to reclaim wasteland, but was assigned to build dry latrines.

At this time, Chen Yan already had a batch of lists in his hands, with densely packed names and dates written on them:

This is mainly because demons are naturally naughty in nature. Even if there are blood demons and clear demons, although clear demons do not eat flesh and blood or humans, this does not mean that clear demons will help humans and get close to humans.

Therefore, before Zhang Tianzheng and the others had finished wiping out the evil spirits in all the towns and villages of Changze County, Chen Yan immediately started the ceremony to confer the titles of good demons and good ghosts on the loyal, virtuous, upright, and protective people in Changze County.

He did not eat Guanyin soil because he saw victims who ate Guanyin soil died of burst stomachs, and their intestines mixed with soil flowed to the ground.

Xiao Tiezhu didn't know where the county capital was, but when he heard that there was food to be eaten, he swallowed hard.

All those big shots were beheaded in public, and the new governor of the imperial court returned to take charge. Xiao Tiezhu didn't know what a governor was. He only knew that this young man, not much older than him, gave him a mouthful of hot food.

Xiao Tiezhu was originally from Shanyin County, Changze County. Later, a rat plague broke out in Shanyin County. Both his parents died from the plague. Such a large town was completely deserted, so he had to flee with other county residents.

It was him who gave them hope to live.

But what greeted him was not a hot meal, but cold swords and the indifferent eyes of the big men.

These karmic obstacles will eventually wait until the tribulation is over, and heaven will send thunder and punishment, just like the black mountain tree spirit.

I heard that today is the day when the city god and the land are sealed. I heard from the village chief that the city god and the land are the sacrificial gods ordered by the governor to protect everyone, so that everyone will no longer have to worry about evil spirits.

Xiao Tiezhu heard it very well. He was not afraid of death. The escape along the way had long made him accustomed to life and death. He just hoped that after his death, he could be like these ghosts and be sealed by the governor.

On the altar, Chen Yan and Yi Mu's spirit body stood side by side, and he could feel the adoring eyes from around him.

In front of the altar, there are about a hundred good demons and ghosts gathered, these are the objects of today's imperial seal. They already knew what they were going to do today, and they all had excited eyes and respectful faces as they knelt under the altar, waiting for the edict.

Further away, many disaster victims looked at these good demons and ghosts with envy, especially the good ghosts. In this era where evil spirits breed, who doesn't want to be a god who protects someone?
Chen Yan naturally saw all this, and it was exactly this result that he wanted.

He looked up at the time and saw that the time had come. Chen Yan looked up at the demons and ghosts under the altar. A special reciter beside him said loudly:

"The auspicious time has arrived, and the sealing ceremony begins!!!"

"Woo——"

Following a melodious and majestic horn sound, the originally noisy sound outside Nagasawa County immediately fell into silence.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the altar.

Chen Yan stood on the high platform with a calm face. He picked up a gold foil letter from the desk and muttered:

"There is a way in heaven and earth, and all laws are natural. Now, in the name of the commander of Xiangzhou, I decree that Zheng Yong is the city god of Shanyin County. He is in charge of the divine law, patrols the four directions, and protects peace."

"Zheng Fenghua, the city god of San'ao County..."

"Yu Ziqing is the God of Baikou Ferry..."

"Qingniu Manghan is the land of Zigui Village..."

"Lu Qingyuan is the city god of Kangshan County..."

"Cock Pleiades gold..."

As the young man read it out one by one, the gold foil document that had been written on the altar was stamped with the seal of the Xiangzhou Commander, and at the same time, he was blessed with the "power to drive away the gods".

This time, the seal was much easier than the previous seal of the black tiger, and it hardly consumed much mana.

During this process, Chen Yan barely paused. One gold foil document after another flew up and landed under the altar, and then turned into a golden light and escaped into the eyebrows of ghosts and monsters in the audience.

As the golden light escapes, visible to the naked eye, these ghosts and monsters become 'holy'. Not only that, just like the black tiger back then, the strength of these ghosts and monsters has also been improved.

It's just not as big as the black tiger, and it seems to have risen to one or two small realms. Not only that, the auras of these monsters and ghosts are also connected with the entire Nagasawa County.

While they protect the villagers, they are also bound by rules. If they want to commit crimes, even if Chen Yan doesn't do anything, the decreed rules of fate will come back to bite them, leaving them dead without any body parts.

An hour later, as the last name was read out, the sealing ceremony was basically over.

Standing on the altar, Chen Yan looked at the demons and ghosts in the audience who had completely changed their appearance and became peaceful and righteous. Chen Yan said in a low tone:
"I hope you can stick to your true nature, protect all living beings, and ensure the safety of this place."

"We obey!"

With hundreds of newly appointed city gods and landmen responding in unison, this time the edict ceremony officially ended.

After that, these newly appointed city gods and land gods will rush to their respective territories to fulfill their respective obligations and ensure the safety of each other.

The victims who gathered outside Changze County will gradually return to their homes and start a new chapter in their lives.

The most uncomfortable thing about the edicts of the city god and the land is the religion of the dead.

The branches of the Rebirth Cult that were originally scattered throughout Changze County were uprooted, but the number was surprisingly much smaller than Chen Yan imagined.

I don’t know if this is because Xiangzhou itself is located in a remote location, or because of other reasons.

But all this has nothing to do with Chen Yan for the time being.

He still needs to face the next bigger challenge.

There is no doubt that this requires Chen Yan to have stronger strength.

Chen Yan didn't know what the counterattack of Laoshan Road and Qianzhong County would be, how many troops they would send, and how strong their combat power would be.

But Chen Yan must prepare for the worst.

If the power of refining qi and transforming into a god appears, how should he deal with it?
His connection with Ruda was never severed.

One hundred more [Blood Thunder Cursed Bird Guns] have been forged, but these hundred were not transported to Changze County, but were temporarily armed in the hands of the Dragon Bird Army guards on the Black Mountain.

The experiment on [Thunder Cannon] is still in progress.

In Chen Yan and Lu Da's imagination, the thunder cannon must be a weapon that can threaten the powerful people who refine their energy and transform themselves into gods.

However, according to Ruda's feedback, it will take at least more than a year to put the thunder artillery on the ground for trial use. Chen Yan definitely cannot count on it for the time being.

Since there is nothing external force can do, Chen Yan can only rely on his own strength.

Only when Chen Yan's own body is stronger can he face all challenges and unleash the full combat power of Yimu's spiritual body.

It is worth mentioning that the imperial decree to seal the city and the land was able to bring Chen Yan a steady stream of incense and willpower.

This was something Chen Yan himself did not expect.

A steady stream of incense and wishes come from all over Nagasawa County.

And Chen Yan's 'Shen Da' is so good that it requires a lot of incense and willpower.

Since the last time in Shanxi Town, when he snatched some incense and wishes from the Goddess of the Past to upgrade his divine strike to the second level, Chen Yan's divine strike has been staying in the second row for a long time.

This strange magic helped Chen Yan eliminate many powerful enemies.

Chen Yan is very much looking forward to the third-grade divine weapon.

According to the description of the third-grade divine weapon, the Golden Body of Ten Thousand Magics can resist all changes and is invulnerable to gods and ghosts. It even transcends the level of magic and is comparable to supernatural powers.

Chen Yan has already understood how powerful the second-level divine attack is, and can ask him to use Daoji reverse slash to refine Qi.

If it were a third-level divine attack, refining energy to transform into energy and reverse slashing to refine energy into energy, it wouldn't be difficult, right?
But before that, Chen Yan felt it was time to spend his merits to improve his strength...
