Qi Hufei asked, "Brother Liu, what is this merit?" ”

Liu Tong said: "This is difficult to explain clearly, you can understand merit as a resource distributed by the Heavenly Dao to all beings in the world, and it is also the fairest resource.

There can be no human intervention in the distribution of merit, there is no middleman to make the difference, and there is no exploitation. So it's the fairest.

But merit is also the most ethereal and unpredictable, and at present, only the merit tablet can accurately measure your merit. But the merit tablet only gives data, and it won't tell you how much merit you have gained for what you have done.

Most of the world's understanding of merit stems from the moral doctrine of Taishang, and there are many books published by the Immortal Examination Institute that talk about merit, so you can also check it out. ”

"What's the use of that merit?"

"The greatest effect of merit is that it can counteract calamities. In the past, practitioners mostly used it to resist heavenly calamities. When the Heavenly Tribulation comes, it is difficult for the physical body to carry it with all the mana. Merit can cancel out a large part of the power of the tribulation, or merit and calamity are inversely proportional, and those with great merit will have a small tribulation. Some people with great merit can even avoid heavenly calamities. ”

Qi Feifei nodded, a little understood.

It is no wonder that the Jade Emperor's immeasurable merit monument can balance the way of heaven and eliminate the heavenly calamity.

Heavenly Court collects the merit tax of the Three Realms, although it is only 6%, but the sum of the Three Realms and Wanzhou is not too much.

Moreover, I heard that merit can be inherited and transferred, and this process is also subject to taxation.

After all the calculations, in the end, the merits of the world may be taken away by Heavenly Court.

The local government collects a certain amount of land tax, and over the years, the more the quantity, the fewer local disasters will be.

However, from a scientific point of view, this is also reasonable, because if you want to collect more land taxes, you must first let the local practitioners obtain more merits, and to obtain merits, you need to kill more demons and demons, and if the demons are all removed, it will naturally be peaceful.

Looking at it this way, I am afraid that the effect of this merit is only a mental effect.

The person who made this policy in the Heavenly Court was really a smart person.

However, Qi Feifei still hopes that the effect of merit is real, and he also expects him to accumulate some merit to resist the catastrophe and repair his body.

He suddenly thought of a question, the Heavenly Tribulation is gone, how can I trigger the Heavenly Tribulation?

Do you want to shout "Yuan Henry Zhen" to yourself and recruit a thunderbolt to bombard yourself?

No, no, in case of attracting Dao Zhu Immortal Sword Qi or something, there is not a single scum left of the seven-grade heavenly demons, so forget about my body that is not more than the third grade.

At this time, everyone had already arrived at the Gongdelin, and it was inconvenient for Qi Hufei to ask more.

Gongdelin, also known as the Forest of Steles, is in the backyard of the City God Temple, and it is also an open attraction at ordinary times.

There are many stone monuments standing in the forest.

The stele is engraved with the history of the relocation of the temple for nearly 1,000 years, as well as a list of benevolent people who have donated money to the temple.

In addition, there are also ink treasures left by literati and ink writers in the City God Temple, which are engraved on the stele and preserved.

There is a platform in the middle of the stele forest, and there is a wordless stone tablet standing on the platform.

The explanation of this wordless tablet in the temple is that in addition to those good people with names and surnames, there are also anonymous people who have donated money, and people who have worked for the construction of the City God Temple but did not receive wages.

There are many people in this world who do good deeds without leaving their names, and there are many ordinary people we are accustomed to silently contributing to the peace of this world, so we set up a wordless monument for those good people who don't know their names.

But the insiders of the City God Division all know that this stele is the real merit stele.

The Millennium City God Division has worked, struggled, and struggled here...... Even the exploits of those who died here are recorded on this wordless tablet.

The surface of the stele is inky black, and it has been touched by tourists without leaving their hands.

Qin Yubai led everyone to the Forest of Steles, and the administrator of the Meritorious Forest had already come to greet him.

This administrator Qi Feifei has also seen it, named Niu Pang, who is the garden administrator of the City God Temple externally, and the director of the Meritorious Division of the City God Division internally, with a high level and little power. The merit office is a clear water yamen, and there are not many things to do, and there is no oil and water.

When Qi Hufei was hospitalized, Widow Wang chatted with him about Chenghuang Si, talked about Niu Peng, and told him not to underestimate this person. said that he was a close confidant of Director Qin, and Director Qin's trust in him was even greater than that of Director Gan and Judge Liu.

Because there are often people rubbing the stele in the stele forest, there is a strong smell of ink.

Qi Feifei always felt that there was another breath hidden under the scent of ink.

Qin Yubai and Niu Pang whispered something in front, probably doing some preparations.

Xin Huan smiled and said to Guo Shen: "This Qilin Mountain operation, your Immortal Shield Bureau has also made a lot of merits." ”

Guo Shen said: "There are seven heavenly demons in Qilin Mountain, and our Immortal Shield Bureau has its own responsibility for negligence, I will not deny this." ”

When Guo Shen said this, he obviously didn't appreciate Xin Huan's affection.

Xin Huan also put away his smile and said, "This is something that no one expected, why should General Guo mind?" Although the Immortal A.D.A. Bureau has the responsibility of supervising the immortals and demons of the Three Realms, the matter of eliminating demons is still the special responsibility of our General Administration of Public Security! If you want to talk about responsibility, this time, the responsibility of our demon affairs department is a little greater. But today we are not here to hold accountable, after all, the merit outweighs the demerit in killing the heavenly demons, and those who should be commended should still be commended, and we must give these younger generations more incentives and incentives! ”

Tulaon said: "Yes, yes, this time to kill the big demon, the merit is not small!" ”

Among the people, only Tulaon was qualified to interject when Xin Huan and Guo Shen were talking.

But Guo Shen seemed to be a little disgusted with the state government representative, snorted coldly, and said, "Heaven can't be self-assured. The snake demon was beheaded by the heavens, and you didn't kill it, how much merit can you receive? ”

Guo Shen's words are not unreasonable.

It was the sword that flew from the sky that killed the great snake, and in a sense, it was that sword that came west to save everyone's lives.

Therefore, if you want to talk about merit, the merit of that sword is the greatest. Its merit is not only the merit of killing demons, but also the merit of saving lives.

From Guo Shen's point of view, if it wasn't for that sword, then under the circumstances at that time, only he who arrived later could kill the snake demon, and the merit would be his.

It can be said that his merit was robbed by a sword outside the sky.

Of course, he didn't care too much about this merit. But the snake demon died before he arrived, and the Aegis Bureau became very passive.

The responsibility for negligence is inevitable, the key is that the flower-faced civet was killed, and there is one less clue to the bat demon.

Erlang God was furious when he learned about this, and Guo Shen's current mood can be imagined.

Xin Huan said: "We don't dare to compete with the sky, but it should be the credit and hard work of the juniors, and we still have to give it to them!" In addition to the snake demon, didn't he also kill the flower-faced civet? That's the top priority. ”

When Zhu Taichun heard this, he unconsciously straightened his chest, his face showed joy, and he imagined how much merit he could get.

At this time, Qin Yubai had already finished discussing with Niu Peng, so he turned around and asked everyone to line up on both sides, led by Xin Huan and Guo Shen.

Qin Yubai stood in the middle, and Niu Pang stood on the side with a notebook.

Qin Yubai knelt down against the wordless stone tablet in the middle, and made a great salute of three kneels and nine knocks, reciting words in his mouth.

After a while, Qi Hufei saw that the wordless stone tablet slowly conjured up a phantom.

Qin Yubai shouted: "Immeasurable merit!" ”

The shadow of the stele slowly rose and emerged from the stele.

A stone tablet of nothingness, invisible to the naked eye, only visible in the divine consciousness, floated into the air.
