Wandao long distance

Chapter 215 Anxiety
Returning to Guangyang City again, Li Qi rushed to the Sikong Mansion without stopping.

He didn't pay much attention, so he just pushed the door open and went in.

Pushing the door open, he saw Guangyang Sikong already waiting in the courtyard.

With the perception of the seventh rank, it is estimated that when Li Qi was still flying in the air, he had already sensed that someone was coming.

Faced with Li Qi, although there was still a hint of disgust and fear hidden in his eyes, on the surface he still looked respectful, welcoming and grateful, and bowed his hands: "My lord, it's so disrespectful to come to this lowly land and bless you. Please forgive me!"

"It's just that although the official position is low, he is a bit older, and he dare not be polite, lest the young master be criticized by others, so let's stand and worship!"

He is courteous and considerate, his words are respectful, and his attitude is not picky. On the whole, he highlights a desire to survive.

After all, standing in front of him is a person who can decide his life or death with one word.

A young master of Wushen Mountain has great authority.

They are the reserve forces of the Great Witch, and they are the next generation of Wushen Mountain rulers. Their purpose of existence is to succeed or even surpass their master. In order to accomplish this, Wushen Mountain will remove all obstacles for them.

Although they generally use these permissions very carefully and are unlikely to abuse them, are they sure that they will make the other party angry?
In this regard, Guangyang Sikong is very self-aware.

I didn't want to work for the first time we met, but I was still ready to run away the second time, until Wang Baiyan showed me that the two young masters appeared at the same time, and then I returned to desperately.

This kind of behavior has already completely offended people, and when he returned later, although rewards for meritorious deeds should be indispensable, the two young masters probably really hated him.

For example, now, without even a notification, he just opened the door and walked in, which shows that he still has some emotions in his heart.

So as soon as they met, Guangyang Sikong put his posture very low, for fear that he would offend these second generation ancestors.

However, even if he had a thousand opinions in his heart, he had to admit one thing...

That is, these second generation ancestors really have the ability to be worthy of the title of 'son'.

Without resorting to the power of the mountain gate, relying on two ninth ranks alone, mediating in the local area for a month and a half, and then forcibly killing a seventh rank, such a record... Such a mind, let alone their talent.

If these two people are targeting themselves... even if the other party doesn't go home to rescue soldiers, but simply digs a hole for themselves behind their backs, they probably have to fall into it.

However, Li Qi didn't think as much as the other party thought.

He was just simply anxious.

For people like Guangyang Sikong, it's not worth keeping in mind, he's just a life-stricken and fearful person who can't make any troubles, if there are no adventures in this life, it is probably unlikely to advance to the sixth rank.

"Sikong doesn't need to be too polite. By the way, does Sikong know the recent situation of Guangyang's land veins?" Li Qi came up and asked straightforwardly.

These words made Guangyang Sikong's teeth ache.

Because... Before Li Qi came, he was already packing up his belongings and preparing to run away.

The land in Guangyang is already rotten, so it's useless to stay here, it's better to get away quickly, this is the right way.

He is a dignified seventh-rank man, and he practices principles and is familiar with craftsman's methods. Where can he not get a bite to eat?
This is an empty job, don't worry about it!

So, at this time, this young man came out and said this sentence... What does it mean?
"I know, I know, it's just...why did you bring this up, Master?" His teeth were clenched, his face was wrinkled into a ball, and he managed to maintain a delicate smile, asking Li Qi back.

"Nothing special, I just hope that Sikong will do me two favors." Li Qi said.

"Young master, just give orders, if you can do it, the next official will never refuse, it's only after death!" He immediately expressed his loyalty.

"You don't have to die. My first favor is to ask you to help me forge an altar. The upper part can reach the sky, the lower part can connect to the ground, and the middle part can watch ghosts and gods." Li Qi said, "Pay the wages as usual, and just provide the necessary materials. It is required to be perfect, and it is best to shrink it and take it away."

Guangyang Sikong immediately responded: "It's a trivial matter, you don't need to invest in it, I can prepare the materials myself, and treat it as a gift for you, please don't refuse, what's the second thing?"

"The second task is also very simple. At present, the highest official in Guangyang is Sikong. Sima Situ is dead, and the prefect has already fled. Only Sikong can preside over the overall situation."

"Sikong heard that I wanted to build an altar. I'm afraid I already know what I'm going to do. Please also ask Sikong to make arrangements for me to organize the power of the Guangyang family's officialdom. It's best to let each family send a representative. Talk to them one by one and have a small meeting." Li Qi said gently.

"That's natural! Leave this matter to me, young master, but don't worry!" Guangyang Sikong replied immediately, without hesitation at all.

He already knew what Li Qi was going to do.

Really...

As expected of Mr. Wushenshan.

To undertake a grand ceremony in a state...is it really something that a mere ninth rank can handle?

Can't go wrong and die, right?
Forget it, it has nothing to do with me.

Since the other party has something to ask me to do, it means that even if I have a grudge, it will not be settled now, and I still have a night to sleep, so don't worry too much.

Receiving Guangyang Sikong's assurance, Li Qi nodded, exchanged some pleasantries, and then turned his head and left.

Time to find the next one.

The next one is Wang Boyan.

Speeding up all the way on the old horse, he quickly arrived at Wang Baiyan's place.

Still pushing the door and entering directly.

Wang Boyan was sitting in the yard, with a pile of scrolls and documents in front of him, as if he was busy.

The others didn't dare to stop Li Qi, they all knew that he was a person that even his boss should treat with courtesy, so they could only watch Li Qi walk quickly towards the yard.

However, this time, before Li Qi could speak, Wang Baiyan raised his head first, and started the topic: "Ah, brother Li is here? Come, I'm just here for you."

As he spoke, he handed over a scroll.

Li Qi frowned, took it over and opened it, only to find that it contained specific arrangements and plans for resettling scattered refugees.

Very detailed, down to the individual.

How many people go to a certain village, how many people go to a certain township, which county how many people are in, their respective journey plans, and resettlement conditions are all written very clearly.

While watching, Li Qi listened to Wang Baiyan's explanation.

Wang Baiyan stood up, opened the folding fan, and said while shaking: "I am not going to send the [-] disaster victims to the small world. In the current situation, sending them to the small world is not beautiful."

"In today's Guangyang, the mountains and rivers are in decline. I think you will not let this situation go, Brother Li. So I guessed in advance that Brother Li will definitely solve this matter in his own way."

"Brother Li is wishing people that the best way to solve this problem is to hold a sacrifice."

"So, I think that this level of sacrifice may require the mobilization of a huge amount of manpower, as well as the cooperation of the lower levels."

"Guangyang Sikong, as the original official figure, can coordinate the power of the government for you, but in the final analysis, he still has to mobilize among the people at the bottom."

"Baiyue is no better than the Tang Dynasty. The education of the Tang Dynasty is widespread and the humanity is prosperous. Whether it is education or the law, it can effectively mobilize the masses, but the people of Baiyue are ignorant, and the government usually has little prestige. They rely more on their families and neighbors. Clan and gang forces are what the people of Baiyue believe in more."

Li Qi nodded after listening to Wang Baiyan's words.

There is nothing wrong with what he said, he is from the lower class, so he naturally knows that the people of Baiyue actually trust the government at all. To them, the government is just a villain who collects taxes and steals skin.

Although there is no government, it is difficult for the people to maintain a stable living environment. After all, the government is responsible for eliminating demons and regulating the atmosphere of the earth, but if you really want to say how responsible the Guangyang government is... that is definitely not the case.

However, what did Wang Boyan mean by saying this?
Li Qi's expression gradually turned into confusion, ready to wait for Wang Baiyan's next explanation.

Wang Boyan didn't make a fool of himself, and said directly: "I dismantled those 10 people and flooded them to various places in Guangyang. I invited a few people who took the initiative to build a living shrine for you, young master, and thanked those who worshiped you, which made them famous."

"In this way, the 10 people will have the concept of the son's kindness in their hearts. After they spread around, at most one month, they will be able to spread the praise of the son's benevolence. Once spread to ten, ten spread to hundreds, and then the people of Baiyue Everyone can know the name of the young master, which is much faster than the government's summons."

"My son wants to hold a great sacrifice, and the support of all the people is essential. In this way, it can save you at least half a year, and the support of all the people can be increased by more than [-]%. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

After listening to Wang Baiyan's explanation, Li Qi sighed.

Still comfortable dealing with smart people.

As expected of a descendant of the Tang family, his brain is easy to use, even better than Guangyang Sikong's, he does things decently, and he always prepares in advance.

"Brother Wang took the trouble. That's right. I came to you for this purpose, but it seems that you finished it ahead of time. You are worthy of Tang Guoying." Li Qi sighed.

Wang Baiyan replied: "Brother Li is absurd, the lower nine sects in my Liangmeng and you have controlled countless gangs, and their roots have spread to the people. They can be regarded as the middle channel between the government and the people. I will also contact the government. I will definitely do it for you. Pave the way for the great sacrifice, after all, it is also for our own good."

"If Guangyang is really ten rooms and nine empty, then not only the people will suffer, but us too."

When he said this, he cupped his hands and saluted Li Qi: "If there is no skin and no hair, how can we get attached? Under the cover of the nest, there are still eggs? Naturally, I understand the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. If Guangyang really becomes a dead place, those of us who are attached The people in Guangyang don’t feel well, so let’s go to Brother Li and try our best to save this Guangyang.”

Li Qize nodded solemnly: "There is no need to talk about this matter, just leave it to me."

Both of them are smart people, so they didn't say any more, and left each other to do their own things.

Then, Guangyang military, civil, government, and rivers and lakes forces all have people to coordinate.

For the rest, there are only the sacrifices that he is responsible for.

On the way back, Li Qi asked himself.

Can I really... hold a big festival in a state with a ninth-rank body?
difficult.

It's really not that difficult.

This is different from those sacrifices in the past.

Probably... the difference between a simple substance and a compound.

The elemental substance is very pure, but the compound is very complex and a little movement will cause big problems.

If you don't understand it like this, it can also be understood as a question.

In the past, Li Qi just followed the specific forms and situations step by step, and then applied the patterns recorded in the book, as if there were all the formulas, and he only needed to calculate the answers according to the formulas on the application questions.

Although there are some difficulties, but generally speaking, it is good to follow the steps. They are all the application questions later, and at most they are a bit out of the outline.

But now, it's not application problems to solve.

Instead, it really asks you to build a bridge.

Field surveys, data calculations, sacrificial ceremony arrangements, wire planning, even the placement of altars, and the use of sacrificial speeches, each point is entangled with each other and affects each other. If it is wrong, it will lead to a series of chain reactions.

How should we deal with heaven, earth, ghosts, gods, and people?So that one does not favor one over another?
How to deal with so many qi of different natures so as not to cause disorder?

You know, with one more element, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

For example, there is only one kind of spirit, and only one solution of "God".

There are two kinds of qi of gods and ghosts, and there are two solutions of "spirits and ghosts" and "ghosts and gods".

Five kinds of gas will become 120 kinds of solutions
Put more, such as 26 kinds of gas, only 21 more, but there are 1413720 combinations.

A full 140 million, more than 1 times more.

How much Qi is involved in a big festival?
But there are more than a dozen kinds of mountain gods.

How many kinds of qi are there in the whole Guangyang?
Even if it is disassembled to the basic part, it is not less than a thousand.

The full arrangement of thousands of qi is a number that cannot be enumerated exhaustively.

It is not enough to use [-] million as a unit.

He had to choose an available choice among the infinite choices. If he made a wrong choice, the backlash from the high priest might make him reincarnate directly.

Difficult, really difficult.

But...it's difficult, but you have to do it.

Since this is the way to practice your own path, there is no need to hesitate, just do it.

It was different from the little tracker who only had to take care of his own safety.

The current self can and can afford the safety of others.

Now Li Qi could vaguely understand Shen Shuibi's feelings.

The so-called "Tao" is one's own criterion.

Only by following one's own way can this long life be meaningful, otherwise it is just a walking dead.

That's why Shen Shuibi was so angry when she saw the daughter of Jing's family in Shewei County claiming to be a kendo.

It is indeed too superficial to call a mere skill the Tao.

Then the next step is to prepare for the grand ceremony.

The first step is to travel all over Guangyang, patrol the mountains and explore the water, and explore the landscape and humanities.

If you want to host a grand ceremony, understanding the context of this place is the most basic and most important part.

If you don’t understand it, how do you host the scheduling?

After deciding what to do, Li Qi did not hesitate. He immediately packed his luggage, greeted Shen Shuibi, and then rode on the old horse to patrol the mountains.
