Chapter 382: Merge into the Statue

"Overall, the silver taels you gave to Zhu Tao at the beginning, not only did you not spend them over the years, but after removing everyone's needs, you can still earn more than a thousand taels of silver."

Li Buwei is quite satisfied with this.

After all, it was a group of mountain and wild cultivators, and if they wanted to fight and kill, or explore the ruins of the cave or something, there would be no problem.

However, it is not easy to settle down and operate, but still be able to maintain a balance and even a surplus.

However, Ji Yuan is not very satisfied with this, in the end, everyone still has not formed their own industry, and they are mostly dependent on others.

In this way, there is naturally no problem in the short term, which can not only meet the needs of one's own basic cultivation, but also earn a little silver.

In the long run, the current situation is not enough.

It's just that Ji Yuan doesn't have anything in his heart, a more suitable method, and something that can be thought of, either he has no experience, or he has already been done very well.

"Zhu Tao, you choose a few people to stay here, and the rest will leave with me tomorrow."

After thinking about it, he gave a command.

Hearing this, Zhu Tao on the side immediately nodded yes, and there was already a candidate in his heart.

Then Ji Yuan told a few people that the livelihood here can be maintained, but there is no need to be too concerned, it is best to practice more and improve your cultivation as much as possible, if other things are boring, they can be used to relieve boredom.

Between the words, he even used a trace of divine might, which immediately woke up a few people who were content with the status quo.

A group of people immediately realized that their previous actions were mostly to make the owner angry.

The other party took them into his hands, not to find a group of burdens for himself, but to be able to give orders when there was really something to do.

If a group of people are content with the status quo, resulting in slow progress in cultivation, or even standing still, then what they have gained now will eventually be lost.

The night passed quickly, and when the morning came, the convoy slowly drove away from Fang Town.

This time on the road, everyone can be said to travel lightly, and some people originally proposed that they could bring a batch of goods, which could be regarded as an additional income.

However, before Ji Yuan could speak, he was vetoed by Zhu Tao on the spot, so there was not even a carriage, and everyone was hurrying on horseback.

Horses are all good horses, and one horse costs dozens of taels of silver, and it costs two or three hundred taels for silver, and it is not a big problem to run three or four hundred miles a day.

However, even if it is an official road, it is not in a straight line, but winds and turns through many towns and counties, so that the distance of more than 1,000 miles in a straight line is undoubtedly stretched many times.

Ji Yuan didn't care, just took a look at the scenery along the way and experienced the customs and customs of different places.

After more than half a month, the group came to a small hill.

Although it is only a small hill outside the third-class county, it is still relatively lively at the foot of the mountain, and there are all kinds of shops on the long street, and the snacks shouted on the roadside add a bit of fireworks.

Ji Yuan and others led their horses up the mountain, and all the pilgrims they saw along the way, most of them were full of smiles, and sometimes they could see a few literati gathering in places with good scenery.

"It seems that Mo Yiyan is doing a good job here!"

Ji Yuan sighed with emotion, quite satisfied with the situation in this place.

As for Mo Yiyan, it is the real name of the Taoist in the mountain.

After reaching the top of the mountain, everyone saw a temple transformed from a Taoist temple, but it was said to be a transformation, but the appearance did not change much.

The two Ye Xiu, who were in charge of guarding the gate, were all in good spirits after seeing everyone, and then hurriedly stepped forward.

Let the others settle the horses first, and then Ji Yuan took Li Buwei, Zhu Tao and Liu Qi into the temple in front of him.

Although this place is relatively remote, but the incense is very vigorous, and most of the pilgrims who come and go are pious, thanks to the water god here for protecting one side.

As soon as he walked into the temple, Ji Yuan felt a force of incense, which was condensed

Among the idols of the main temple.

He stepped forward to take a closer look, and found that the statue was actually a young man's body, which was exactly what he had been looking like more than three years ago, but it had been blurred on his face.

"The water temple is built on the top of the mountain, not to mention the only one, but it is really rare."

Ji Yuan had a smile on his face, and after muttering to himself, he smiled lightly.

At this moment, Mo Yiyan asked people to come from the apse, and when they got closer, they saluted.

"You're doing a good job!"

He looked at the mountain Taoist in front of him, and couldn't help but ask curiously how he did it.

It is not a simple matter to have a new temple with such a large amount of incense in three or four years.

"It's not too difficult, after saying hello to the local county government, we rely on our mana to do more good deeds around."

Mo Yiyan led a few people to the side hall where the guests were entertained, and then roughly explained the things over the years.

In fact, what they do is very simple, that is, relying on their own magic and Taoism, they often walk in the four directions, or practice healing, or divert water to irrigate the farmland.

Even a few people helped the government, captured many evil thieves, and hunted and killed many fierce beasts in the mountains and forests.

In the name of the water god, they did all kinds of good deeds, at first they were somewhat uncomfortable, but later they became more and more handy, not only for the temple on the hill, accumulated a lot of incense, but also earned some merit for themselves.

"We like this life more than we used to do in the past."

Mo Yiyan sighed.

Behind him, the rest of the Ye Xiu who followed here couldn't help but show an expression of approval.

There is no need to worry about it every day, you just need to walk around and do some good deeds in addition to your practice, and not only will you gradually accumulate some merits, but you will also be thanked by many people.

Looking at the faces full of smiles, several people naturally maintained an excellent mood.

Ji Yuan didn't expect that his original arrangement would be like this, and he didn't know how to evaluate it for a while.

But either way, it's a great thing.

As the day darkens, most of the pilgrims, except for a small number of pilgrims who have temporarily stayed in the temple, have already descended the mountain, and there are several inns on the street at the foot of the mountain for them to stay overnight.

And the main hall, which had been lively for a day, gradually became cold, until in the end only the candle flame was flickering.

Ji Yuan walked into the main hall, the door behind him closed by itself, and then his gaze fell on the statue of the god in the center.

In his eyes, the statue was shrouded in the power of incense, and in addition to the golden light, there were many colored lights representing the seven emotions and six desires.

He took a deep breath, his eyes burst out with a brilliant golden divine light, and his body exuded a powerful divine might.

It slowly walked towards the idol, the clothes on his body were shattered and fell off under the shock of divine power, and the divine power in his body gushed out.

When Ji Yuan ascended to the god platform, the preparation of the secret technique in the divine body had been completed, and with the casting of the spell, the flesh and blood of this divine body gradually dissolved, turning into a wiping pipe and submerging into the statue in front of him.

An hour had passed, and he had endured the pain of the melting of flesh and blood, and now only a golden skeleton remained.

But under the effect of divine power, the remaining skeleton also began to crumble, turning into countless essences and merging into the idol.

It wasn't until late at night that the vision in the main hall calmed down, and the statue of the god exuded a soft divine light, absorbing the incense power that had been accumulated for several years little by little, and refining the seven emotions and six desires in it at the same time.

The formation pattern disappeared in a flash, and the formation that had been arranged earlier opened, guarding the main hall and the statues in it.
