Immortality is above

Chapter 152 Chapter 151: Establishing Prestige and Change
The teaching palm seal is not only a symbol of authority, but also a special magical weapon. Its suppression of local ghosts and gods is by no means just talk. It is inspired by multiple restrictions tempered internally and is as powerful as a mountain.

The land turned pale with fright and couldn't hide. It raised its arms high and struggled to support it, shouting: "Sir, in such a big Gaohua City, all the ghosts and gods, big and small, do this. Do you have to accept all the ghosts and gods? If a fight breaks out, everything will end in a dead end.”

Chen Liubai said calmly: "You don't need to worry about what I will do."

Tu Tu gritted his teeth and said: "If you take us in, the temple will lose its owner, and the borderlands will be unguarded. Those evil ghosts will definitely swarm out. When the time comes, all living beings will be in ruins. As an envoy, you will not be able to escape the relationship."

This is not only a plea for mercy, but also a threat.

Chen Liubai chuckled: "At this time, you are still thinking of holding Xie Sui hostage to negotiate terms. You are really just eating a corpse, and you have evil intentions."

Without further ado, the thought of Dharma was activated, and the seal glowed brilliantly, forming a vortex that quickly sucked in the land.

A buzzing sound!
The seal returned to its original shape and became ordinary again.

He acts vigorously and resolutely. In addition to the opponent hitting the gun point, there is another important factor, which is to establish his power and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

Put the seal and step out.

It has long been a common phenomenon for a local guardian to suddenly transform into a domineering ruler.

Once your identity is revealed, things will be much easier to handle.

The villagers had been bitter for a long time. Now that they had a chance to appeal, they immediately put aside their taboos and, under the leadership of the third uncle, poured out their bitterness.

Not only chaotic places like Gaohua City, but also other relatively stable areas are not much better.

The villagers headed by the third uncle were gathering together, standing far away. When they saw Chen Liubai, they all knelt down and worshiped.

Originally, it was stipulated in the divine law that there was a strict and detailed set of requirements for sacrifices and tributes, including the time.

Gradually, the people below became overwhelmed and their lives were miserable.

The most typical manifestations: transgressing etiquette, expanding temples, seizing incense and telepathy, etc.

On that day, Seventh Senior Brother Mo Xuanyi, who was in charge of offering sacrifices, had informed about these situations. Since he took office, he has been vigorously investigating this aspect in an attempt to bring order to the chaos. It’s just that there are many obstacles and cannot be changed overnight.

The ghosts and gods in those places often wear the same pants as the local priests, they are just the same.

But now, those ghosts and gods simply ignore these rules and become greedy, coercing people to pay tribute.

In the system concept of the Taoist court, on the one hand, the edict to confer gods is to develop Shinto; on the other hand, it is to use the characteristics of ghosts and gods to suppress evil spirits and protect local tranquility.

The mountain master sent Chen Liubai to Gaohua City to take up a post, not only for assessment, but also as a kind of assistance.

Chen Liubai said loudly: "You don't need to give this big gift. Next, I want to know what the Earth Mountain God has done. You can choose a few representatives to speak."

It is limited to the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, and the sacrifices are divided into three types: fruits and vegetables.

They have long been dissatisfied with regular tributes.

It’s just that Chen Liubai thought more. The current situation in Tao Ting was obviously that there was a problem with the top management, and no matter how hard it was below, it would be difficult to turn the tide.

However, with the rise of Shinto and the weakening of the Taoist court's binding force, the ambitions of local ghosts and gods gradually grew, becoming arrogant and unreasonable.

But there is no way, the above things cannot be touched and changed by him as a god-forming monk.

All he can do is do his duty.

... After listening to the accusations made by the third uncle and others, they were recorded in writing, signed and fingerprinted.

These are all due procedures and serve as ironclad evidence to incriminate this land.

Many times, if you want to establish authority and convince the public, you cannot rely solely on authority and force to attack. Suppression based on honor and justice is also indispensable.

After doing this, the third uncle asked: "Sir, when will the new land take office?"

Chen Liubai said: "You want a new priest so soon?"

The third uncle smiled bitterly and said: "There is no way. If there is no god to watch over you, evil spirits will appear soon. Their movements are erratic and they do evil things. It is difficult to guard against them. Our cultivation is shallow and it is really difficult to resist."

Chen Liubai raised his eyebrows: "According to your statement, are those evil spirits really so rampant?"

"Isn't it?"

The third uncle spread his hands, and then pointed to the rolling mountains around him: "The mountains are high, the forests are dense, the miasma is permeated, and the place is dangerous. Countless evil ghosts are hiding in them, like lush grass, which can never be eliminated."

In the borderland, it has always been said that "there is a world in the mountains and a world outside the mountains."

In addition, some rivers and swamps are also in danger.

These are all historical problems left behind after the continuous collapse of Dongtian Paradise.

When the spiritual energy weakens and disappears, and turbid energy arises, demons and ghosts will continue to breed.

You can still deal with monsters and ghosts, but the most terrifying thing is to be invaded by evil spirits from outside, which will lead to catastrophe.

It is their responsibility and the source of power for Shinto to control the place. Therefore, when faced with Chen Liubai's suppression just now, the land was still able to speak plausibly and feel confident. They believe that they ask for incense tribute in order to improve their strength and use it to maintain local peace.

And if Chen Liubai wanted to take the opportunity to establish his power, he might have made a wrong calculation. It would not be easy for him to find new land in a short period of time.

Besides, will the replacement be able to ensure that he stays on his own terms and is honest and selfless?
How can it be?

This is destined to be an endless loop with no solution. In the end, you will find that nothing has changed.

Chen Liubai also thought about this, and felt a little anxious for no reason. When he was in the State of Zhao, his attitude was aloof, more or less aloof, and because he was superior in strength, he was able to do whatever he wanted.

But back to the Immortal Dynasty, it was a different situation.

However, he quickly woke up and remembered that the elder of Shanmen said that the way to become an immortal lies in detachment.

And "detachment" is by no means just talk, nor does it mean that when faced with difficult difficulties, you just put down your burden and walk away. That is not detachment, but escape.

Thinking of this, he began to calm down and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will have a good talk with the various ghosts and gods in my jurisdiction soon, and then make transfers and assignments to ensure the safety of the place."

Hearing this, the third uncle and others were relieved.

Although they live outside the city, they have heard about the behavior and style of the new eunuch. They know that he is a young adult with a good background, full of passion and vitality, which is quite different from the previous edicts.

Enthusiasm and vitality often mean changes will be brought about.

Gaohua City is a stagnant water that has been silent for a long time. People have long been tired of it. They want to change and find a new way out.
