"Deacon Xiao, we are here to receive the punishment on the order of Lord Tianxing......"

Hearing the sound in the house, Zhang Tao didn't speak, and asked Zhao Gongping to come forward to negotiate with him.

When he first came to this hall of law, he didn't know the temperament of the people in it, and if he contradicted someone by making a statement, the gains would outweigh the losses.

"I am Zhao Gongping of the Chenke Demon Elimination Hall, and this is Zhang Tao of the New Branch Demon Elimination Hall!"

The Heaven Survey Division is divided into two courtyards, the Demon Slaying Hall and the Demon Slaying Hall.

According to the talent and potential, it is divided into 12 branches, named by the 12 earthly branches, the higher the talent and potential, the higher the 12 branches.

Although Zhang Tao had no intention of destroying the Heart Refining Pavilion, his sin was unforgivable, but it could be seen from the side that his talent was excellent, and he was enough to rank among the first sub-disciplines of the twelve disciplines.

Zhao Gongping looked serious, clenched his hands into fists, and his attitude was unusually respectful, and he was respectful to the officials who bowed their heads and wrote copywriting behind the table.

Seeing this, Zhang Tao looked like this, lowered his head and secretly looked at the surrounding situation.

I saw that the Law Hall was simple and tidy, with only a table and a bookshelf, which was full of various files and cases.

An old man with a restrained air and a white beard was sitting at the desk and writing hard, and since they had walked in, the other had not raised his head once, and his eyes were fixed on the file in front of him.

"Zhang Tao?"

When he heard Zhao Gongping mention Zhang Tao's name, the old man with advanced cultivation finally raised his head and looked at the two people below curiously.

"You are the boy who asked Lin Bufan to hand in three Yin Fruits?"

His gaze directly crossed Zhao Gongping and stayed on Zhang Tao's body, and a subtle look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

"Uh... It's down again! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Tao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered in his mind that he had been in Wuling Mountain and had indeed given Lin Bufan the Yin Fruit.

Just not three, but four.

Obviously, the fruit of underreporting was prostituted by the other party!

However, he didn't break it, but looked into the old man's eyes, nodded sincerely, and agreed very happily.

He remembered that Lin Bufan had said at that time that these Yin and Underworld Fruits could be exchanged for some merit points.

At that time, it was not clear to him what merit points were for ... But now he knew the importance of merit in the Sky Survey Division.

To put it simply, merit points are the rewards obtained by completing tasks with their lives, and in the Heaven Survey Division, merit points can be exchanged for various cultivation resources, and you can also enter the Tibetan Gong Pavilion to exchange exercises...... The benefits are many!

"The Law Hall has clear rewards and punishments, since Lin Bufan handed over the heavenly treasures for you, then you should also get the merits you deserve!"

As he spoke, the white-haired old man sitting in front of the table raised his hand and waved, and the identity of Zhang Tao's waist representing the identity of the Sky Survey Guard suddenly flew out and appeared in the old man's hand.

"You and Lin Bufan will hand over three Yin Immortal Fruits together, and give you three hundred merit points according to the preciousness of the heavenly and earthly treasures provided."

The old man held a pen in one hand and a waist card in the other, and he looked at the identity information on the waist card, and recorded the information of these rewards on a book containing spiritual energy on the table.

"Don't hurry up and thank Deacon Xiao!"

Seeing this, Zhang Tao didn't react yet, but Zhao Gongping, who was standing beside him, was the first to react, and when he heard that there was a full 300 merit points, his eyes straightened, and he burst out with envy.

He hurriedly pulled Zhang Tao's sleeve, signaled the other party to quickly take the waist card, and thanked the white-haired old man in front of him.

"Thank you, Deacon Shaw!"

Feeling the huge force on his right arm, Zhang Tao woke up like a dream, and suddenly recovered from the shock of the powerful qi just now.

The strength displayed by the old man in front of him was unfathomable, and he was shocked for a while.

Immediately, he bowed, raised his hands, and respectfully accepted the waist card handed over by the other party.

I saw that the bronze waist plate had changed, and under the seal engraved with Zhang Tao's name on the front, there were a few more small characters of the ancient seal - one hundred fifty.

Obviously, this number represents the merit value!

On the back of the bronze waist card, a lifelike red falcon eagle is engraved, spreading its wings and soaring.

Surprise!

Unexpectedly, Lin Bufan really kept his promise, and after returning to the Sky Survey Division, he gave him a record of meritorious service.

With this one hundred and fifty merit points, he can go to the Tibetan Gong Pavilion to exchange for some exercises that suit him and increase his strength!

"The Law Hall has clear rewards and punishments, meritorious service will be rewarded, and responsibility will be punished!"

Deacon Xiao was expressionless, his eyes were deep, he looked at the two people below, and said in a thick voice: "The old man already knows the guilt of the two of you. ”

As he spoke, he flipped through the file in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Gongping did not introduce the stakes clearly because he accepted the newcomer's entrance assessment, and let the Heart Refining Pavilion be damaged, which is really a dereliction of duty...... He will be fined for three years, minus 3,000 merit points. ”

"And because Zhang Tao is a newcomer, those who don't know are not guilty, but due to the big stakes of demolishing the Heart Refining Pavilion, the punishment will be halved, and he will be fined for one and a half years, and 1,500 merit points will be deducted."

After a pause, he added: "If the merit points are insufficient, you will be guilty of meritorious service and use it to repay it in the form of performing tasks. ”

Originally, when Zhao Gongping heard the first half of the sentence and was to be punished for three years, he was secretly relieved in his heart.

Just as he was about to congratulate himself on his wise choice, Deacon Xiao said the second half of the sentence, mentioning the deduction of 3,000 merit points, and his heart instantly became cold and fell into the ice cave.

Three thousand merit points, that is a huge amount of money that he can't reach in half his life.

You must know that in order to become the 250 merit points required by 100 households, he was born and died, jumping back and forth on the edge of life and death all day long, and finally it took three years to save enough.

Several times I almost died!

It can be seen how difficult and dangerous it is to earn merit points!

And the punishment of these 3,000 merit points is simply outrageous.

For a moment, Zhao Gongping felt desperate... It is as if the future of life is dark, and you will have to worry about this huge amount of arrears for the rest of your life, until you die on the road to the mission.

Especially when he heard Zhang Tao's punishment in the back, he fell lightly, and it was only half of him, his mentality collapsed instantly!

Obviously, he is the victim and has suffered an unjustified disaster, but his punishment is the most severe, is there any reason for this?

At this moment, Zhao Gongping looked at Zhang Tao who was breezy on the side, his eyes changed, the other party was like a plague god, and when he met the other party, he would only suffer disasters and become extremely unlucky.

"Deacon Xiao, the one hundred and fifty merit points I just got haven't been covered yet, can I not deduct them first?"

Zhang Tao was not as pessimistic as the other party, but began to bargain, thinking about the one hundred and fifty merit points in his hand, and whether he could exchange some advanced exercises.

After all, the punishment of this law hall is clearly a high loan in disguise!

It means that he has to work as a wage earner for the other party for a long time, and he is still working as a day job!

"I'd rather take on more missions to pay off my debts, but only if I can exchange these 150 merit points for some life-saving hole cards...... Otherwise, with the humble cultivation of humble duties, I am afraid that I will not be able to wash away this sin in my lifetime. ”

He moved with emotion and reason, looked at the white-haired old man in front of the table opposite, and tried his best to fight for his final legitimate rights and interests.
