Chapter 693: Finding out the news

Naturally, it is impossible to collect the money handed over this time, but it must be handed over to the yamen to be counted, and the main purpose of this time is to count the specific amount in advance.

If there is a gap with the estimate, then it is natural to use more means.

However, those things have nothing to do with the current Su family, although they are rising stars, they are still a little thinner than those big-name families, and they have the prince's guarantee, and the prefect will not find them if they are embarrassed.

After instructing his subordinates to hand over a cup of hot tea and a little "heart" to several officials, one of the officials at the head weighed the silver with satisfaction, and then said casually: "Since we have received the orders of the prefect, we must record them truthfully." ”

"Your Su family will discuss how much money you should come up with this time, and please don't make it difficult for a few of us to run errands."

The words are not harsh, and they are obviously just routine.

Du Bai had already discussed this matter with Wan Miao before, and then he replied with a smile: "This time, our Su family decided to donate 20,000 taels of silver and five glass cups!" ”

If you convert it into cash, it can be regarded as 30,000 taels of silver!

In particular, the glazed objects are still in a state of pricelessness.

This stroke is still quite big, even the official who was drinking tea was shocked, looked at him carefully, and then laughed and said: "I didn't expect your Su family to be the most generous!" The families we went to just now were only 5,000 taels of silver......"

Because of the prefect's affection, he thought that it was just a formality, and a thousand taels of silver would be good.

In contrast, those big families are even worse.

Most of them rushed to build the Dragon King Temple, and then the embankment was retracted again, which is really a bit shameful.

Like those young masters, they can spend a lot of money for women, but they are extremely stingy in this kind of people's livelihood affairs, which is really a little contemptible.

Of course, this amount at the moment will certainly not be the final result. When the time comes, the prefect will knock and knock, and the power of the dragon king will still exist, and those big families will still have to pay for it obediently.

It's just that this attitude is put here, and the judgment is made!

Du Bai smiled slightly, and did not judge the behavior of other families too much.

Those are the things that the prefect should be concerned about.

He just hopes that he can do his part to help build the dam as soon as possible.

However, at this time, the two Dao Masters also looked at him, as if looking thoughtfully. They always felt that there was a peculiar aura in the Su family, but they couldn't say it, and now that they saw Du Bai, they realized it.

"This son, I don't know if I can take a step to speak?" A Taoist leader asked first.

Du Bai was stunned, thinking that they should not find out their identities, so he nodded and ordered his subordinates to continue to entertain a few officials.

When the three of them left everyone's sight and came to a quiet place, Du Bai looked back at the two of them, and asked with some doubts: "I don't know what is the important matter for the two Dao Masters to find me?" ”

The Dao Chang pondered for a moment, and actually praised: "This son, I think you have an extraordinary temperament, a wise root, and you must be a malleable talent in the cultivation line!" I wonder if you would like to worship the two of you? ”

"Yes, such a genius, if it is wasted and wasted, it will be a pity!" The other Taoist nodded and stroked his beard, with a look of extreme truth.

But when Du Bai heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh.

What should he have done, that he wanted to take him as a disciple?

He thought about it carefully, and soon realized that the "Dao Bone and Hui Root" that the two of them had discovered on his body should be the changes caused by the infiltration of immortal qi and Buddha qi.

These days, he has used immortal qi and Buddha qi a lot, and it is natural that there will be some changes.

But this did not mean that he was willing to embark on the path of cultivation, so he immediately shook his head and refused.

"Childe is worried about his wife and children's family? In fact, we don't care about the desperation of our spiritual lineage...... but the Taoist priest wanted to be crooked, and he wanted to continue to persuade.

However, Du Bai didn't continue to say more, and as soon as he released the momentum on his body, the two of them were suddenly dumbfounded, and they couldn't help but show a look of surprise on their faces!

"It's ...... Righteousness?! ”

"It turns out that Childe studied Confucianism......" After the Taoist chief was stunned, he couldn't help but sigh lightly.

It is rare to meet such a rare genius in a century, but the result is that he cannot be carefully cultivated as an apprentice, which is really regrettable.

After all, in their eyes, being able to master a path of cultivation is already beyond the reach of ordinary people, but being greedy will not be able to chew it out, so they don't think about whether they can also cultivate the Dao at all.

However, they didn't expect that Du Bai was not only the Dao Law, but also the power of the three schools of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and by the way, he had to add the power of a ghost Dao, which was still fine, it was really a miracle.

"So...... However, we are too eager, please forgive me if we are offended. Their attitudes have also corrected a lot, and they have also lowered their bodies to apologize.

As cultivators, they also understand what it means for righteousness to appear in ordinary people, and it is not easy for such people to be offended.

But just as the two were about to turn around and go back, Du Bai stopped them.

"If the two Dao Masters are not in a hurry to leave, I would like to ask the two of you some questions below!"

The two looked at each other, did not refuse, but nodded and said, "It's okay, just ask." ”

Du Bai thought about it, found an excuse, and said with a fist: "Although I specialize in Confucianism and Taoism, I am also quite curious about the ghosts and gods in the world. I had a chance to see a monk with boundless mana before, who easily subdued a fierce ghost, and he could easily transform it! ”

"I admire it in my heart, and I am even more curious, there are many fairy-like characters like this in the world?"

"This ......"

A Dao Master frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then replied, "If this Dao is not wrong, what you saw earlier should be a Living Buddha senior. ”

"Living Buddha?" Du Bai pretended to be very similar, nodded slightly, and listened carefully.

"Corresponding to the living Buddha of Buddhism is the figure of our Taoist generation of heavenly masters. But these characters are very close to the immortals, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are immortals walking in the world. Now that the Tao is gradually declining, there are not many such figures. ”

The other Dao Master sighed lightly, with a slight pity in his tone.

"As far as this Dao knows, such immortal figures who are still alive are probably no more than ten fingers!"

"Is it only the number of ten fingers......

Du Bai groaned secretly in his heart.

In other words, there are less than ten people left in the world who can threaten them, so should they be glad that they are safe, or should they be sorry for the decline of the power of this world?

From the words of the other party, it is not difficult to guess that there are fewer and fewer high-end forces in the world today, which is the so-called symbol of humanity.

The extinction of the immortals, after all, the impact is becoming more and more obvious.

But that's not something he can change.

All he can do is to get the best opportunity for himself and his family and friends in this environment!

After Du Bai sighed for a while, he then pretended to be puzzled and asked: "In addition, in fact, before leaving, that Living Buddha senior talked to the junior and me about some things, which mentioned an evil existence that is suspected to be a demon outside the world, have the two Dao Masters ever heard of it?" ”

He wanted to take this opportunity to find out how far the righteous path knew about these things.
