This god is really evil

Chapter 163 Liu Yunhe Converts to Fuzun

Qinghe County, Yiguzhai.

This study is considered to be the study with the longest history in the entire Qinghe County.

In addition to the classics, history, and literature that students usually use, the study also sells some rare and incomplete copies.

These are all the things Liu Yunhe likes on a daily basis.

When he was an official in Qinghe County, he had no other hobbies. His favorite things were to buy books in Yiguzhai, look for pens in Zhibifang, and buy ink in Hanmolou.

At this time, he returned to Qinghe County again. His Taoism was severely damaged and he was depressed. At Li Yan's suggestion, he went to Yiguzhai for a walk and felt much more comfortable.

Zhao Qingshan, Hou Qi and others followed Liu Yunhe as his followers, serving him all the way, which also made Liu Yunhe feel much happier.

He also knew these people. They were all Li Yan's apprentice friends in the charity cemetery. Now they all worked as chores in the Imperial Observatory. This also showed that Li Yan was nostalgic and would not forget the past just because his status had improved.

This made Liu Yunhe value Li Yan even more.

Moreover, these people may have been just country boys in the town, but now they have become very well-behaved, which further shows that they are ambitious.

Especially the one named Zhao Qingshan, who has always been at Liu Yunhe's beck and call and taken very good care of him.

"Sir Liu, I heard that the owner of Yiguzhai received a batch of old books some time ago, all of which were collected from the ancient village on the other side of Tuoshan. Would you like to take a look?" Zhao Qingshan asked.

Old books from Tuoshan Ancient Village?
I'd have to take a look at that.

Many ancient villages around Tuoshan were built to escape war, and many of them contain rare and unique books.

Liu Yunhe had encountered this before.

Zhao Qingshan hurried to find the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper did not dare to neglect the request and took a few people directly to the warehouse. He pointed to the books in a wooden box inside and said that they had not been sorted and classified yet, so Lord Liu could look through them at will.

Liu Yunhe was delighted to see the prey. He rubbed his hands and walked to the old and shabby wooden box, opened the box, and began to read the books one by one.

There are not only old paper books eaten by insects and rats, but also rotten bamboo slips.

Zhao Qingshan and others took a look and did not dare to disturb Liu Yunhe. They all left the warehouse and stood guard at the door.

Liu Yunhe flipped through the books one by one and found that most of them were old classics, history, and miscellaneous collections. The content was unremarkable, but they were of great cultural value.

There are three or two of them, which are some local chronicles, poetry collections and the like, which I have never seen before.

The poems and the like were fine, but the local customs made Liu Yunhe's eyes light up.

The handwriting was messy and the paper was just ordinary straw paper.

What are told in these stories are mostly rural stories, including stories of people who encountered evil spirits and barely survived, stories of filial sons who became sick and were about to die, stories of people who were bullied by bullies and wanted to hang themselves, stories of people who were killed by officials, and so on.

Without exception, all these suffering people were saved by a deity named Xuantian Fuzun.

Seeing this, Liu Yunhe has concluded that this must be some kind of missionary code of a cult.

As for this Xuantian Fuzun, I have never heard of him. I think he is some rural god from somewhere.

The evil cults in Da Qi are all hiding in the dark, and can be said to be everywhere. It is normal for those who collect old books to receive this kind of thing in the ancient village.

However, Xuantian Fuzun is somewhat different from other evil gods. He does not talk about cause and effect in the afterlife, or ascending to heaven, etc. Instead, he just does good deeds, saves people, and persuades people to be good, which is rare.

He then turned the page and saw another story:
A good official who was dedicated to serving the people was attacked by treacherous people and even misunderstood by the monarch at that time. He was demoted and even exiled. The official was depressed and didn't know how to deal with himself or how to survive. He begged Xuantian Fuzun to solve his doubts. Xuantian Fuzun only gave him one sentence:

Establish a mind for the world, establish a destiny for the people, inherit the lost knowledge of the past sages, and create peace for all generations. Seeing these four sentences, Liu Yunhe suddenly trembled all over, and felt as if he was hit by an electric current!
These four sentences are so consistent with his ideals in life, and can even be said to fully express his inner thoughts!

In the somewhat dim warehouse, guarding a box of old books, the sunlight shone through the window, and he couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a moment.

This evil god from an unknown dynasty actually transcended time and was able to communicate with him!

Liu Yunhe continued to flip the page, but found that this book of customs was only half a book and ended here.

What did Xuantian Fuzun say next?
It really makes one scratch one's head and makes one feel itchy.

As he was thinking, he shook the half-rolled book in his hand, and suddenly a piece of yellowed paper fell from between the pages.

Liu Yunhe took a closer look and his eyes froze involuntarily, and he took a breath of cold air.

[Ritual of taking refuge in the Infinite Mysterious Heavenly Blessing Lord]!
This is actually the conversion ritual of the evil god Xuantian Fuzun!

As the former supervisor of the Qinghe County Astronomical Observatory and now the judge of the Anding County Astronomical Observatory, he has always hated those evil ways.

After all, what I do is to exorcise evil spirits.

In the past, when encountering such things, they would definitely destroy them completely immediately, and even investigate whether there was any problem with the owner of the study.

It’s just that the four sentences just now were too shocking. Coupled with his current situation and his already shaky faith in Taoism, he had completely different ideas.

Heretical ideas.

At least leave this thing behind for now.

Although his realm had fallen to the early stage of visualization at this time, Liu Yunhe felt that his inspiration was sufficient. Feeling that there was absolutely no other person in the room, he quietly put away the [Ritual of Conversion of the Infinite Mysterious Heavenly Blessing Lord] and continued to flip through the box of old books as if nothing had happened.

Outside the door, Zhao Qingshan listened to the noise inside with a calm expression.

Last night, Li Yan suddenly called him over, handed him a book, and explained something to him.

That was why he had arrived at the warehouse in advance and stuffed the book into the bookbox.

He was illiterate and didn't know what was written in the book, but he knew that such things had to be kept secret.

I am a close follower of Lord Li, so I must keep my mouth shut when doing things.

Just pretend nothing happened and you know nothing.

After a while, Lord Liu seemed to have satisfied his craving for books, and took a few people to look at the pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

For the next two days, the entire Qinghe County was peaceful. It seemed that the memory of the previous blood spirit case had gradually faded, and people had forgotten what had happened before.

Li Yan has also been in charge of government affairs in this city. Everyone says that Lord Li is much better than the county magistrate Ding Youde. They even hope that the court will never send a new county magistrate, as that would be great.

Until the third day, it started snowing heavily.

Liu Yunhe rode on the horse, looked at Li Yan and said:

"Let's go."

As he spoke, he had already rushed out of the city gate and into the snow.

The Pingyao Camp was already not far from Qinghe County, and he was going to find the county magistrate Song Kaida and make a final effort.
