Chapter 53: The Land Temple

After a trance, Sun Ran slowly opened his eyes.

The first thing that catches your eye is the dim sky, with a waning moon hanging in the sky, dotted with several cold stars. Turning his head slowly, what he saw was a hut with black tiles and white walls, oh no, it should be a small temple.

The small temple is no more than one meter five high, the area is only two square meters, there is a statue of a god inside, there are some tributes of vegetables and fruits in front of the statue, a pair of couplets on both sides, on the book "The soil of life is the root, and the land of life is the foundation." ", the horizontal batch is 'land in Liuye Village, Hebian County'.

It turned out that this was the land temple of Liuye Village.

Sun Ran sat up, looked around his body, and saw that there was a woman lying beside him, and her face and figure were nine points similar to Bai Tingxuan. She was dressed in rags, her hair was shaggy, her face was black mud, and she was dressed as a beggar.

Look down at yourself, too.

Well, both of them have become beggars.

After a while, Bai Tingxuan also woke up, women love to be clean, and as soon as they woke up, they noticed their appearance, frowned, and then raised her hand and waved it gently, her fingertips showed a little more clear light, and pointed at herself and Sun Ran: "Purification mantra." ”

Qingguang flew out of her fingertips, and with a circle on each of them, she took all the stains on her body away, her clothes were clean, and the stench, lice, and fleas on her body were all gone.

One of the advantages of the Order is that once you enter the virtual world, the mana in your body will be replenished in a very short time, reaching the upper limit of what the Order can master.

Sun Ran also has mana in his body. Because in the resume forged by the Central Wisdom Brain, he used to be a national teacher of Zhenguo, and his cultivation was Taiqing Jue, and his cultivation was extremely profound. In order to let him give full play to his advantages in Taoism, the Confucian company will naturally not be stingy and fill him with mana.

This is beyond the reach of the saboteurs, who must carefully replenish their mana so as not to be detected by the game's brain, a process that is very slow and has been common for thousands of years in the game. Because saboteurs often sneak into the virtual world as beasts, the monks among ordinary players don't know this, so there is a saying that human beings are the spirits of all things, and their bodies are naturally in harmony, and human cultivation is far more than demon cultivation.

"Good spells." Sun Ran praised.

Bai Tingxuan was also happy in her heart, and smiled: "You taught it well." The total amount of data that my mana can mobilize is extremely high, even exceeding the limit of Level 2 authority. ”

Sun Ran smiled smugly and said without modesty: "That's natural. ”

The longevity recipe was created by his first Dao ancestor, and this time he taught it, Sun Ran added many years of realization, and almost completely changed the appearance of the longevity formula, increasing the power at the same time, but also without worrying about being recognized. Bai Tingxuan is equivalent to a disciple of the Dao Ancestor, how can she do it if she is not powerful.

At this time, a ray of light shot out from the Land Temple, and then a figure walked out of the statue of the Land God, and the figure quickly turned from virtual to real, turning into a white-haired hunchbacked old man.

With a cane in his hand, he made a gesture to Sun Ran and Bai Tingxuan: "I am the land of Liuye Village, this is polite." ”

His posture of being so rich in ancient oriental culture confused the two.

Bai Tingxuan asked, "Are you a game administrator?" ”

The old man coughed lightly and said solemnly: "To be precise, I am a game monitor, and we have a complete monitoring network. Also, in the future, you must call me the land lord, so as not to be accidentally heard and affect the game experience. ”

Sun Ran knows that in the Confucian world, there must be a land temple in the village, and there must be a city god temple in the city, which is used to monitor the entire game world and achieve the purpose of preventing the slightest slight.

He snorted and arched his hand: "I have heard for a long time that Confucian companies pay attention to the feelings of players, and now that I look at it, it is indeed so." ”

The land lord was very satisfied with Sun Ran's attitude, and smiled: "Since you have already come, I will tell you about the situation in Hebian County in detail." ”

Sun Ran and Bai Tingxuan looked serious.

The land prince drew three fingers and said: "There are demons and ghosts in Hebian County, and there are three troubles!" ”

After finishing speaking, he paused, and Sun Ran naturally continued: "I would like to hear about it." ”

The land lord Fu Xu smiled and said: "One is that there are water monsters in the Wenxu River that Hebian County relies on. The water monster is only two levels, often flooding, overturning the river cargo ships, flooding the cultivated land, resulting in many places without harvest, the people complain, for the most serious disaster, he is very powerful in the water, good at borrowing the water potential, most of the orderly is defeated by him, is the first major trouble.

The second is that there is a wild boar demon in the county's Daqing Mountain, which occupies the mountain as the king. The wild boar demon is also a second-level, he closed the mountain and locked the forest, and the hunters rarely survived in the mountains, and his subordinates often went out of the mountains at night, stealing chickens and ducks, and even stealing cattle and women.

Hearing this, Sun Ran said with some disgust: "This method is really amazing!" ”

The land lord's face was solemn: "Because of this, we deduced that the saboteur this time belonged to the poisonous scorpion mercenary group. ”

Sun Ran nodded, he despised this kind of scoundrel ** as unprincipled destroyer the most, just like the king of the dragon in the era of the dragon, who never left a way for others to live. Naturally, others will not leave them a way to live.

"What about the third problem?" Bai Tingxuan asked.

The third is that the family of the squire Hu Guangyong is dead, and there are often miserable cries in the house, which has become a murderous house in the riverside county. The murderous house disturbed the people, and no one dared to live within a kilometer around, and a no-man's land appeared in the county by the river. Yang Ting, the magistrate of the county, is in a hurry, and if he doesn't solve these things within the year, the performance appraisal will definitely be inferior, and his official will be the end. ”

It's the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and there are still four months to go, and the situation is very serious.

Sun Ran asked: "The two of us are now in rags, hungry, and have no long things, can the land lord provide some funding?" ”

"Of course." The land lord nodded, pointed to the fruits and vegetables enshrined in the land temple and said, "Take this to satisfy your hunger." ”

There are really ghosts and gods in this world, so even if the two refugees Sun Ran took away fainted from hunger, they didn't dare to steal these offerings to eat.

Although the fruits and vegetables are cold, they are still fresh, and the two of them will be ready, and it is important to fill their stomachs.

The land lord turned into the land temple again, and pointed to a corner of the land temple, where there was a wooden stick, and the wooden stick was also inlaid with an emerald, which was actually a magic staff.

"This is a second-level staff, left by a previous mage order. If you are proficient in sorcery, use it. ”

Sun Ran was overjoyed, this saved him a lot of effort, took the staff and tried it, and found that this staff was not simple, the emerald on the head of the staff had a stable effect on the spell structure, and it could basically increase the strength of the data structure by half a level.

Although he can use Dao techniques, the real order skills are only three Western magic techniques. This staff is good, and he naturally gladly accepts it.

The land lord pointed to a mouse hole behind the statue of the land god and said, "There is a thief in the village who hid the money from me, and you all took it, and no one dared to say anything when you used it." ”

It turned out to be stolen silver, Sun Ran walked over, reached into the hole and touched it for a while, took out a handful of broken silver, as well as hundreds of copper coins, counted them, there were about ten taels, according to the price of this world, enough for them to live in Hebian County for four months.

He hid the silver, then took a white-flour bun handed over by Bai Tingxuan and gnawed it.

Taking advantage of this moment, Sun Ran asked, "Does the land lord have any other guidance?" ”

"Naturally."

The land lord pointed to the north and said, "The magistrate has posted a list on the city wall to recruit people who can eliminate demons, and you can pretend to be a Taoist priest to apply." ”

Sun Ran nodded, this method is the best, and it can get the support of the world's official forces as soon as possible.

The land prince said: "However, there are many Taoist monks in the world who have false names, even if there are some true legends, they are absolutely no match for the saboteurs." At present, many people have unveiled the list, but they have all returned in vain, and even put themselves in. Yang Tingyong, the magistrate, doesn't trust the monk very much, so before revealing the list, it is best to show his ability, if he can calm down the trouble first, it will be better. ”

The key to this is whether or not you can get the full cooperation of the magistrate, which is important for preservation tasks, Sun Ran nodded and was taught.

"And one last point. Yang Ting has the luck of this person, and it is not easy to say that he will enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future. His official position must not be lost, and his family must not be harmed, and this must be regarded as the top priority. "The demeanor of the land lord is very serious, not a joke.

The so-called atmospheric luck, this guy is a big VIP player, and he paid a lot of credits to be a big official. This kind of player is the god of wealth of the game company, and as far as Sun Ran knows, if you want to be the prime minister of real power for ten years in a black iron-level world with a great unified and stable regime, you need to spend at least one million credits.

These big VIPs are not purely here to play, they are often the children of the rich in the real world, who come to the game world to exercise their emotional intelligence.

Naturally, the company wants to put his interests first.

"Don't worry, I'll take notice."

After finishing speaking, the land lord arched his hand to Sun Ran: "That's all I have to say, waiting for your good news." ”

"Thank you."

The land lord is just a virtual body data, generally speaking, it is a spirit body, which can only transmit information, and cannot interfere with the present world, and now that things are done, his body will be re-virtual and disappear.

There was not much food to be offered, and the two of them quickly ate clean and their stomachs were full. Sun Ran looked at the sky, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening, no, it should be the second watch, and said: "Xuanxuan, the county seat by the river is only ten miles away from here." Let's go to the murder house tonight to see what happens. ”

"Okay." Bai Tingxuan agreed, she knew that Sun Ran was a powerful person who could protect her. Her current mana is also different from what it used to be, so there is no trace of cowardice in her heart.
