As soon as I came to the shore of the old dragon pond, I saw the waves rolling on the water surface in the distance, and countless demonic qi rose to the sky. Immediately, hundreds of black shadows appeared on the surface of the water, each holding a weapon, very majestic.

In front of these sailors were several generals who had manifested themselves in human form. Xiao Qian led them to brush and shouted: "The god of the Baishui River greets the Lord of the Land!"

"Xiao Qian, what the hell are you doing!" Chang Jin laughed and stepped into the waves.

"I don't want Childe to see the momentum of the water army, how is it compared to Childe's Yin soldiers?"

"Hehe, each has its own merits. Chang Jin felt a little funny, this little girl actually had the idea of comparison.

"This is my son-in-law, and you will all salute when you see each other in the future. If the son is sent, he can't refuse, you know?" Xiao Qian shouted at his subordinates seriously.

"Yes, King," replied several water generals.

"Alright, let them all disperse, I have something to look for you today. Chang Jin waved his hand.

Xiao Qian gave an order, and those sailors immediately sank into the river and disappeared completely in a moment.

When she came to Shuifu, she asked out loud, "What happened to Childe this time?"

"That's right, when I was consulting the Yin Si Sect Scroll a few days ago, there was a document from the Tongqu County Order...... "Chang Jin told in detail about the continuous disappearance of foreign merchants near the water.

After listening, Xiao Qian hesitated a little: "Childe, my divine domain has not yet reached the water, and I don't know what happened there. But don't worry, I'll send someone to check it out."

Then she said aloud: "General Eel will enter the mansion to listen to the order!"

The eel essence was waiting outside the house, and he immediately led a team of sailors to leave in a hurry. It only took a few hours to go back and forth, and by the time dawn, the eel spirit had already returned with his troops.

"The king, the lord of the land, the villain has checked the thirty-mile water area of the desecrated water thoroughfare, and there is no existing water monster to make a monster. Further downstream is the waters of the King of the Mixed River, and the villain does not dare to explore. "The eel spirit will report the results of the investigation quickly.

"I already know, go down. Xiao Qian nodded. With her subordinates leaving, she said, "Childe, it seems that this matter needs to be considered in the long run, and in the future, I will send a general to inspect that section of the water every day, and once there is an abnormal situation, I will immediately report it to you." ”

"That's all it can be"

Chang Jin chatted a few more words and returned home on the waves.

Since getting the news of going to the county seat, Xiaoxiao has not rested well all night. When she got up early in the morning, she pulled Xing Su'er to pack her things, and she wanted to bring everything in her family to the city.

Chang Jin couldn't help but dissuade him: "It's not that we won't come back, let's stay at home with these things." If you need anything, you can go to the county seat to buy it. ”

To put it mildly, I finally let Xiao Xiao dispel his thoughts and simply pack up a few clothes and bedding.

After breakfast, Chang Jin went to a neighbor's house to borrow an ox cart and asked Da Zhuang to take the two of them to the county seat. Hearing the news that the Chang Jin brothers and sisters were going to move into the county seat, many people in the village came to Chang's house to see them off.

After saying goodbye to Changjiazhuang, the small circles under his eyes began to redden, and he was a little reluctant.

She knew that when she entered the city this time, she was afraid that she would not be able to come back for a while. It's the first time that the little girl has left home when she's grown so big.

When I entered the county, my little mood began to improve, and a pair of eyes were not enough at all, and I kept asking questions. However, Xing Suer has seen the world and explained them one by one.

"Brother, is this really the house you bought?" When he came to the mansion, Xiaoxiao was completely stunned, almost in disbelief. She originally thought that her brother had just bought a single courtyard in the city, but she didn't expect it to be so big.

"Of course, girl, let's go into the house" Chang Jin smiled and took out the key to open the door, and then ordered: "Da Zhuang, the ox cart is also pulled into the courtyard." ”

"Xiucaigong, you ...... You're really up to it. Da Zhuang's eyes were also full of envy, and his tone changed.

Not to mention the two of them, even Xing Su'er's eyes widened. Although her family had a small yield before the mutation, it did not have such a large yard.

After entering the courtyard, the little three were still a little unconvinced.

At noon, Chang Jin stayed at home to eat, and since the pot stove had not yet been fired, he went directly to Lao Dong to buy some braised vegetables and steamed buns.

When Da Zhuang was leaving, Chang Jin cut a few catties of braised meat for him to bring back.

After an afternoon of hard work, Xiaoxiao led Xing Su'er to finish the whole yard, and finally calmed down.

Immediately, the two girls began to plan around again, thinking about how to rearrange the courtyard. Xiaoxiao even plans to wait for the beginning of spring to make a vegetable patch in the courtyard, so that the family does not have to buy vegetables for dinner, and can save a lot of silver.

Xing Suer was interested in the houses on the street, saying that she could rent them out or start a small business on her own.

There are a few more people in the family, and there is finally a lively atmosphere.

Chang Jin stayed in the study, holding a book of poetry in his hand, but listening to them talk in his ears, he thought it was quite interesting.

For several days, Chang Jin stayed at home to read and write. Xiaoxiao and Xing Suer went shopping on the street. During this period, Wang Qinian made two trips, and he can be regarded as knowing Xing Suer.

After settling down at home, Chang Jin began to get busy again. He plans to inspect his subordinates before the year to clean up the evil spirits everywhere. Of course, the excuse for my sister is that she is out to visit friends and may not return for a few days.

Afraid that the two girls would have an accident at home, he specially sent two ghosts to guard the door for his family.

The first stop of Chang Jin's inspection was Yaqian Town, which was originally a big town under the rule of Tongqu County, and it stands to reason that there is a lot of incense to worship. It's just that Chang Jin Tong guΓ² is inductive, and the incense and fire power contributed here is thin, and the yin and evil qi in the leylines are almost none, and most of them are the aura of peace and tranquility.

This strange appearance puzzled Chang Jin, so the first stop was here to see what went wrong.

Today happens to be the big gathering in Yaqian Town, and the street is quite lively.

On the third pole of the day, Chang Jin walked into the town with the flow of people, all the way to the center of the town. He had an edict in his body, and standing here, even if he didn't release his divine sense, he could clearly sense that there was a pure incense fire that rose to the sky, converging into a glow in the void above, and it didn't disperse for a long time.

I don't know what gods are enshrined here, but I haven't heard of them before.

When Chang Jin walked closer, he saw clearly that it was a family temple ancestral hall, with the words "Li Family Temple" on it. A family temple has such incense power. Seeing this, Chang Jin was really a little surprised.

Family temples are generally temples set up by the family for their ancestors, and there are shrines in them, most of which are used for the family to worship their ancestors, or when the grandchildren of each house handle marriage, funeral, birthday, joy and other things, use these broad ancestral halls for activities, or set up schools for the children of the clan to study here.

Although the Dayan Dynasty severely cracked down on evil cults and obscene sacrifices, the family temple was not among them. The Book of Rites. The "Royal System" has clear regulations: "Seven temples of the Son of Heaven, five temples of the princes, three temples of the doctor, one temple of the scholars, and the sacrifice of the people in the bed." ”

Most of these family temples can only absorb the incense and fire power of their own worship, if the family maintains prosperity, once the family is dilapidated, the family temple is not worshipped, and the gods enshrined above will fall off the god's seat, disappear into ashes, and fall into reincarnation.

However, there are also a very small number of family temples that have evolved and finally gained humane recognition, which can accept incense and eventually become a land or city god, and even worse, may even become a national temple.

For example, the Confucian Temple on the earth in the previous life is strictly speaking, the family temple of the Confucian family. It was only later that due to the continuous improvement of the status of Confucianism and the visit of Han Gaozu to Qufu to worship Confucius, the Confucian Temple began to transition from a family temple to a national temple. In the end, it was recognized by the emperors of previous dynasties, and its roots were deeply rooted in humanity, and it enjoyed incense for 2,000 years.

The same is true of the temples of saints in this world...... However, this evolution is difficult, and it was formed before the manifestation of the Dao Dharma. Since the manifestation of Taoism, there is no family temple that can accept incense and be worshiped by the people of a city and a county.

The fact that the Li family temple in front of him can grow to this kind of Cheng dΓΉ is a bit unexpected by Chang Jin. When he released his divine sense, a little smile appeared on his face.

No wonder, it turns out that the original gods in this temple have been driven away and turned into Tu Yifang.

When he tried the other party in the Land Temple before, Chang Jin felt that the top of his head was full of anger and deep luck. Looking at the scene, it is obvious that the occupation of the family temple has been humanely recognized, otherwise there would not be so many people worshipping.

Seeing an old man walking out of the temple with a smile on his face, Chang Jin stepped forward and saluted: "Hello old man, Xiaosheng occasionally passes by here and sees a family temple here, I don't know if it works?"

"Ling, now the spirit is very good, haven't you seen so many people go in to make incense?" The old man heard Chang Jin mention this, and immediately said excitedly: "Last year, my mother-in-law was sick, and I heard someone guide me to come to the temple to offer incense and kowtow and pray, and as a result, in half a month, my mother-in-law was fine." I didn't believe in that, but now I do. Today's incense is to pray for Master Li to bless my family with peace and security. ”

"Was that also very spiritual before?" Chang Jin smiled when he heard what the other party said, and asked again.

"Before...... In the past, it was not very spiritual, only the Li family was incense. Later, somehow, maybe everyone's sincerity touched Master Li, and it gradually became effective. ”

Chang Jin knew in his heart that it must have been Tu Yifang who drove out the original ancestor of the Li family and occupied the divine throne before he could succeed.

"Scholar, listen to my old man, if there is anything to do, hurry up and go to the pillar incense, Master Li is really spiritual. The old man said again as he was leaving.

"Thank you, old man" Chang Jin arched his hand and walked towards the door of the ancestral hall. secretly said in his heart, how can there be a reason for high-level gods to bow down to low-level gods, if you worship yourself, I am afraid that Tu Yifang will not be able to bear it.
