The short old man, trembling, told the terrain in front of him, and took out a pen and paper and drew a map.

"What's this pothole?"

"It's a big lake, it's a small pond, it's pretty clear."

"What's that twisting and twisting?"

"The mountains are heading."

"What about the stones?"

"One stone is a village, two stones are a town, three stones are a city, four stones are a cultivation sect, and five stones are a cultivation family."

"What about this twisted stone?"

"This is not the shape of an ingot, the silver ingot is the location of the Fucheng."

"What about the orange ones?"

"This is the golden ......" the short old man said in a muffled voice, "This is the gold ingot, which symbolizes the temple of incense and fire, where the gods live." ”

"Why don't you ......" Lu Wan was silent and said, "You mark it with words?" ”

“……”

The short old man thought to himself: "Isn't it clear at a glance, this master disciple of Xuantian Vision, could it be that his eyes are not very good?" I heard that the way of heaven is fair, and in terms of cultivation, he is extremely talented, and he is inferior to ordinary people in terms of eyes, which can be regarded as fair......"

"What do you look at?"

Lu Wan said expressionlessly.

The white ape approached and said, "He seems to be pitying the disabled old man." ”

Immediately, the white ape was furious and said, "What kind of eyes do you have? Think my master was crippled? It just doesn't make sense......"

Bang!

Lu Wan slapped it over.

The short old man hurriedly lowered his head, marked the locations of the terrain map, and gave the names in detail.

"Venerable Lu ......"

He trembled, held the terrain map in both hands, and handed it over.

Lu Wan took it slowly, waved his hand, and motioned for him to leave.

Then the little old man, if he was amnesty, hurriedly kowtowed, turned into smoke and dust, and disappeared between the land.

"Master, will you let him go? With your old man's ruthlessness, if we don't kill him, we will gouge out his eyes! ”

"Shut up!"

Lu Wan said calmly: "In the Ziyang Domain, most of the gods and spirits of all parties are people or gods behind them, for example, Liu Ce Yuzun let his Cold Yin Fish replace the original Shuhe Old Fish...... But this guy is one of the few serious gods. ”

Lu Wan had heard of this old man's deeds.

An ordinary old man who did good deeds and accumulated virtues, died of a long life, and was deeply loved by the local people.

And that year, the old prince Li Yitu was in office, and he personally ordered this kind old man to make a piece of land here.

For more than 200 years, this place is also considered to be smooth and the people are stable.

He did not do much during his lifetime, but he did small good, accumulated small virtues, and was deeply respected...... After his death, he was a god, and he did not have great merits, but little by little, he did it decently, and he kept one party too safe and stable.

"If the gods of the world are like him, it would be fine."

Lu Wan laughed and said, "I called him here today, first, to ask for directions, and second, to see him." ”

"The master wants to give him a promotion?"

"Almost."

"The City God of the Purple Sun Domain?"

"He is just an ordinary person, and now he is also an ordinary god, his ability is limited, and he can't be the city god of the entire Ziyang Domain."

Lu Wan said: "However, it is appropriate to hand over a place in Fenghe County to him to manage." ”

When the white ape heard this, he couldn't help but hang his head.

The big black dog approached and snorted twice, with mockery in his eyes.

It is to the effect of, "Do you want to be a city god? Or commit suicide and let the master seal one for you? ”

"Phew! I just think of my second uncle......"

The white ape sighed and said: "His old man died early, and it is estimated that even his soul has been eaten clean, otherwise, with his old man's power and wisdom, profound knowledge, and almost the same intelligence as me, to be a city god of the Purple Sun Domain, isn't it more than Zhuo Zhuo?" ”

"That's more than enough!"

Lu Wan rubbed his eyebrows, and vaguely felt that it was a wrong choice for him to bring this monkey and dog.

Along the way, there was no one to live in.

——

Stepped into the location of the Southern Spirit Domain.

A man, an ape and a dog, headed forward.

"Doesn't the master know how to fly? Cultivating to the level of casting a tripod, using mana, you can already step into the air......"

"That doesn't cost mana?"

"Before, the old man said that he went down the mountain to sharpen? Isn't it good to temper mana? The white ape asked.

"Master, my mana, the foundation is solid, the foundation is strong, and the refining of the gods is ...... Presumably, in this life, there is no one who can compare with me. Lu Wan said calmly: "This tempering is mainly for refining the heart. ”

"No wonder the master took us on the walk, this time even the carriage was left in Kaiyang Mountain." The white ape grunted, thinking that it was better to take a carriage.

"You're an ape! And it used to be wild! Lu Wan glanced at it and said, "You still don't like to walk?" ”

"Isn't that already married?" The white ape said in a sullen voice: "It is said that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift...... It's human nature. ”

"You're pretty good at making excuses." When Lu Wan said this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "Your kid has really grown a little bit in conversation recently. ”

"That's naturally yes, the little ones have not been idle in recent days, training during the day, thinking about the development of various departments in Kaiyang Mountain in the evening, and reading at night."

The white ape patted his chest and said, "Now I'm not stupid, I'm really brave!" ”

The big black dog's eyes were full of mockery.

Then there was another burst of white monkeys fighting black dogs.

——

Near Yanagi Village.

This place is under the jurisdiction of Kamihara Castle.

And Shenyuan City is the second largest city in the Southern Spirit Domain after the main city.

The village doesn't look small, it's home to thousands of people.

Lu Wan, with a monkey and a dog, is quite eye-catching, and intends to spend the night in the village, but every family is quite vigilant.

Until Lu Wan took out a silver tael.

There are several families, scrambling to be the first, that is, their own hearts are kind and kind, and they can't see people sleeping in the open, and they want to take in this person, an ape and a dog.

And Lu Wan chose one casually and borrowed it for one night.

It's nightfall.

It's dark.

Lu Wan sat in the courtyard, looking at the stars in the sky.

"Why did the master suddenly rise up and spend the night in the village?"

"I've been thinking about it, there are legends in the world that there are three realms, the upper is the heavenly realm, the lower is the hell, and this is the human world."

Lu Wan's tone was complicated, and he said, "The world is ...... A real human ......"

He said quietly: "I haven't known this real world for a long time. ”

Before he crossed over, he was an ordinary person.

But that era was completely different from the era of this world.

And the crazy boy in this world, who was a member of the Shendu when he was a child, later fell into the middle of the road and moved south.

When he was young, he entered the Xuantian Temple and chose to be by the side of the head of the sect as a Taoist child.

In this way, they are already considered cultivators, not earthly beings.

When he crossed over, he became the head of the Xuantian Temple again.

"I came into this world, and at the beginning I stood too high, like on the clouds, and I did not know the foundation."

Lu Wan said: "This journey, it's time to take a look at this real world." ”

Before he could finish his voice, he looked up ahead.

There was a cacophony of voices, which gradually came, getting closer and closer.

Bang!

The courtyard door was kicked open!

Coming in were two officials, with knives at their waists, and their postures were high.

"Poor Master ......"

The host hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "What's going on?" Didn't you pay your taxes yesterday? ”

"Yesterday, there were more than 20 in your village, and they didn't pay the taxes, so they arrested men and went to build a city, but only one died, and three of them ran away in fright."

The official almost kicked him over, and said expressionlessly: "The eldest lord in the city is very angry, this time he is staring at your village and handing over those three people!" And...... Pay your village's taxes again! ”

"Lord, I waited a year for a year to farm the land, and I only had a few silver coins, first I paid the tax money once, and then I paid the money for the construction of the temple twice...... Now it's overwhelmed, and if you hand it over again, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it at the end of this year! The master's face turned white with fright.

"What the hell is going on?" The official said angrily: "This is what the lord above, and the construction of two temples this year was instructed by the Si Tianjian over there in the divine capital, you don't pay for it, the lord does?" ”

"Zhou Laosan, I am also from a neighboring village, and we all know each other." At this moment, the official on the side said, "You still have a daughter, aren't you unmarried?" Recently, the temple is about to be completed, and it is necessary to choose boys and girls to offer to the gods and serve by the gods! ”

"It's a great blessing." The official from before softened his face a little, and then said, "Your daughter, if she sells it to the Qinglou, she will exchange it for a tax price...... Now that I have gone to the temple, I have no worries about food and clothing, and I have been blessed by God, and I have exempted you from taxes, which is a good thing. ”

"It's all old things that have died once, and you still have to choose someone to serve?"

At this moment, a faint voice sounded and said, "The gods should protect one side, not the fish and flesh people!" He didn't even understand this, who gave him the title of god? ”

"Bold! How dare you talk about the gods! ”

The official suddenly drew his sword and shouted loudly.

Another official suddenly pressed his shoulder, a smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and said: "This person looks at the face, and there is a faceless one next to him, you are not from this village!" ”

"Zhou Laosan, isn't it your illegitimate child?"

The official just now sneered: "Do you still have a dog?" It doesn't seem that there is no money, but that you don't want to hand it over! ”

"Forget about this dog, we'll take it back and eat it, help you destroy the evidence of the crime, and exempt you from the tax money for raising a dog."

Another official said, "But these two, plus the one that was recollected, there are three more taxes!" Zhou Laosan, this time you don't just sell your daughter, you have to sell your mother-in-law......"

“……”

The master's family was slumped on the ground, his face was pale, and for a while he was a little confused.

Lu Wan closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and said: "Everyone in the same world, all of them are at the bottom, you have a little more power, and you think you are high?" ”

"With such a little power, you have to do everything in your power to force others to death?"

"Selling your daughters and wives, such a miserable situation can't arouse any pity from you?"

"Also, although these tragic situations come from the pressure from above, they are also the work of you lackeys."

"At the bottom of the world, such suffering, is this the current Daqian Dynasty?"

He vaguely realized and waved his hand.

Immediately, an ape and a dog pounced.

Lu Wan glanced at the owner's house that fell to the ground, took the firewood knife in the courtyard, and threw it over.

"They're going to kill you."

"You go up and kill them."

"I'll keep you safe."

I saw that the master's family trembled and picked up the firewood knife, trembling all over, and his face was pale, but he couldn't hold the knife and fell down.

Lu Wan shook his head slightly, when he first checked in, he saw this man chopping wood, his wrist was quite stable and powerful.

But now, in the face of two officials who have no power to fight back, they dare not make a move.

After all, what they are facing is still the government!

The majesty of the government is deep in the hearts of the people!

It's not something that can be broken in one day!

"Was that the case in the past?" Lu Wan asked.

"The past ......," the man said in a daze, "the past can live." ”

"I can't live anymore."

Lu Wan looked in the direction of Shendu and said in a low voice, "When did it start?" ”

It seems like it started a long time ago.

But it seems to have started this year.

The national teacher once rectified these things, treated the people well, and reduced taxes, which offended many powerful people.

But the national teacher should have had a relatively good life over the years he has been in office...... At least, it can live!

But now, the demon tiger has become a national teacher, and it seems that many of the previous rules and regulations have been changed.

Compared with before the real national teacher took office, it was even more terrifying.

"I only know that the demon tiger has replaced the national teacher."

"I also know that the demon tiger has the idea of causing trouble to the court."

"I also know that the demon tiger is not only a threat to me, but also full of influence on the entire Daqian Dynasty."

"But I didn't expect that just after he took over the Heavenly Prison, the two temples he randomly set would make the situation worsen to this point."

"In the past, no matter how hard the people were, they could at least have three meals a day and survive, but now they can't live anymore."

"This is just an ordinary village in the Southern Spirit Domain, but what about the other places?"

Thinking like this, Lu Wan straightened his clothes, walked outside the courtyard, and ordered: "Go to Fucheng, find the eldest master, and have a chat." ”

"What about the two temples?"

"Flattening."

"What about the two gods?"

"If they don't know what's going on, they'll beat it."

"What if they know what's going on?"

"Hit it hard."

"Understood!"

The white ape took out the Great Virtue Battle Ax and said, "Conquer people with virtue!" Obey God with virtue! The little ones will knock their brains out when they turn around! ”

Lu Wan said expressionlessly: "They don't have a body, they can't knock out their brains, it's enough to knock out their souls." ”

"Woohoo!"

The big black dog expressed dissatisfaction, believing that he had been hungry for a long time recently.

Seeing this, Lu Wan said with a smile: "It's broken, it tastes good...... Knock off the fat and ointment from them, so that they may not be disgusted. ”

As he said this, his mana worked and he suddenly got up.

"Didn't the master say walking?"

"I'm not afraid to go slow, but ......"

Lu Wan glanced back and said, "But if you solve it early, you can save a lot of people." ”

Before his voice fell, the person had turned into a retreat and headed towards Kamihara City.
