Shengui Changsheng: Start adding points from Zhenwuwei

Chapter 14 Smell the Incense Cult

Time passed slowly, and in a blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed.

Soon it was the day for the county town demon bureau to recruit personnel.

This day, early morning.

Before Lu Changsheng got up, Fang Qing and her brother came to his yard and waited early.

The two received the news a few days ago.

Today, they are even more excited.

Fang Qing felt as if she was dreaming. The dandy young man who spent all day walking around the streets suddenly became an expert in martial arts and was even going to participate in the selection of the Demon Suppression Bureau. This was beyond her expectations.

Soon, Lu Changsheng got up, washed, and walked out.

The moment he saw Fang Qing, his face froze.

I saw that there was obviously some carbon ash on the other person's face, covering up the original redness.

The clothes she wore were also very loose, no different from those of other farm girls.

It seems that the other party is also quite smart and knows how to hide his weaknesses, otherwise he would have been killed by him long ago.

"Let's go."

Lu Changsheng smiled slightly and took the lead to walk out of the yard.

Fang Qing and her brother quickly followed.

The three of them left the yard and walked along the street.

Both sides were filled with sewage and rotting animal carcasses, emitting a foul smell.

The three of them frowned.

If conditions allowed, several people would like to move out of here as soon as possible.

At this time, figures gradually appeared on the street.

Today is a great day for the Demon Suppression Bureau to recruit personnel, and many civilians are also preparing to go to the central square to observe.

On ordinary days, some civilians are successfully selected and their names are known throughout Changping County.

This makes many lower-class people excited and they fantasize that one day they can be as powerful as him.

Even if most people cannot achieve their wish, they still have something to brag about at the dinner table.

Some neighbors saw Lu Changsheng and his two companions but did not say anything and were very cold.

Lu Changsheng was also happy about this.

Ever since my father passed away, many neighbors have been avoiding him as if he were a plague god. They are too busy trying to hide from him to come around.

"Humph... When Uncle Lu was here, he took good care of Aunt Wang..."

Fang Tao looked indignant.

He is young and naturally cannot tolerate any flaws.

In his view, some people are simply ungrateful and too hateful.

"Brother, stop complaining."

Fang Qing smiled faintly and said something comforting.

She was also quite dissatisfied with this.

However, Lu Changsheng would soon enter the government, so he didn't care much about these neighbors and would just stop interacting with them in the future.

The three of them walked slowly towards the central square in silence.

After half a cup of tea.

Suddenly, bursts of chanting were heard from the intersection ahead, and the sound was quite loud.

"The Ming Zun descended to the world to save all living beings, and the burning holy fire purified the filth..."

A group of men in white robes walked towards the intersection with great momentum.

He was still mumbling to himself.

The loud voice echoed throughout the street.

Upon seeing this, many people nearby immediately stood on both sides, their faces filled with awe.

In their eyes, these people are living Bodhisattvas who "save people from suffering and distress."

Whenever there is a minor illness or disaster at home, there is no need to take medicine, just drink some magical water and it will be fine.

Over time, many civilians naturally became more convinced.

"It's someone from the Scent of Fragrance Sect."

Fang Qing lowered her voice and quickly pulled Lu Changsheng and Fang Tao aside to make way.

There was still a hint of fear in his eyes.

She has always been quite taboo about matters concerning gods.

Lu Changsheng did not resist and let Fang Qing pull him away. He looked up at the group of believers in front of him.

The leader was tall, with two flames embroidered on his white robe, which was very conspicuous.

A pair of tiger eyes carried a hint of murderous intent, and there was a gleam of brilliance in them as he looked around.

And this person's temples are also bulging.

"A martial arts expert!"

With just one glance, Lu Changsheng knew that this person's cultivation was not shallow, at least above the Flesh Refining stage.

With his strength, he might not be able to defeat the opponent for the time being.

Lu Changsheng quietly watched the other group of people go away before continuing to walk forward with the two siblings.

But just this one thing made his heart suddenly feel much heavier.

As far as I can remember, these members of the Scent of Fragrance Sect used to only operate outside the city, and have only appeared frequently in the city in the last six months.

It seemed as if he was gradually testing the government's reaction. This made him suddenly alert.

Lu Changsheng was not naive enough to think that the other party was here to save all living beings.

When a dynasty gradually declines, some evil spirits often emerge at the first moment.

These people must have ulterior motives.

Changping County is where he lives, so if there is any unrest, he will be the first to be affected.

With his current strength, it is difficult for him to go to the provincial capital alone.

The wilderness is still extremely dangerous.

After a while, Lu Changsheng and the other two arrived at a large central square.

He looked up.

There was a high platform in the center of the square with three chairs on it.

At this time, three middle-aged men were sitting upright on their chairs, looking very dignified.

The three men were wearing flying eagle uniforms and holding long swords in their hands, which glowed fluorescently under the sunlight.

These three people are the official demon-suppressing envoys who will preside over today's ceremony.

In the east of the square, there are three huge tripods of different sizes.

The tripod has three legs and is made of brass, and is obviously very heavy.

A large number of figures crowded around the three large tripods, and the place was filled with the sound of people and noise.

According to his memory, Lu Changsheng also knew the function of these tripods, which was to select personnel.

Very simple and crude.

The three giant tripods weigh 1,600 kilograms, 1,200 kilograms, and 800 kilograms respectively.

In the past, as long as one could lift a huge tripod weighing 800 kilograms, it was considered a success.

With the strength of an ordinary Stone Skin Realm warrior, the full force of both arms is enough to lift the 800-jin giant tripod over the head.

Generally speaking, the most ordinary warriors have a strength of 800 kilograms when they first start to refine their skin.

When the skin is refined to perfection, it will be about two thousand kilograms. For those with extraordinary talents, it will be even more amazing.

As long as ordinary people can step into the skin refining stage, they will have the opportunity to join the Demon Suppression Bureau.

This is also the rule established by the imperial court for hundreds of years in order to give the lower-class civilians a chance to rise.

After passing this level, you will become an apprentice demon suppressor. Only after a one-year probation period can you officially become a yellow-level demon suppressor.

As for why it was divided into three levels, he didn't know.

Lu Changsheng guessed that it might be related to his entry into the Demon Suppression Bureau.

"Changsheng, hurry up and sign up."

Fang Qing pointed to an old gentleman in a black robe in front of her and spoke in a gentle voice.

Lu Changsheng smiled and nodded.

Then walked forward.

There were already quite a few figures lined up in front of the old man, all of whom were coming to challenge him today.

It is very difficult for ordinary warriors to practice, but as long as they can successfully join the Demon Suppression Bureau, there will be many benefits, so some people naturally flock to it.

Some people even force themselves to unleash their potential, sacrificing their lifespan to enter the skin refining stage, just to try their luck.

Such people make up the vast majority of civilians.

Lu Changsheng also lined up obediently at the back.

As the number of people in front gradually decreased, Lu Changsheng soon arrived.

"Name?"

"Lu Changsheng."

"age?"

"twenty."

"Martial arts cultivation, what technique did you practice?"

"Refine the leather, iron shirt."

Lu Changsheng answered them one by one with a smile.

When the old man heard about the iron shirt, he was stunned. He also knew this "famous" martial art, but he didn't expect that there are people who are not afraid of death.

Every year, some civilians burn themselves to death. It is unexpected that Lu Changsheng, at such a young age, would choose to take the risk.

A group of warriors stood in the queue at the back, with something strange in their eyes.

Everyone thought that Lu Changsheng was a warrior who was forcibly cultivating his potential.

Then the old man took out a wooden sign with a look of regret and handed it to Lu Changsheng.

"This is an identity certificate. If it is lost, it will not be replaced."

"Thank you, senior."

Lu Changsheng bowed, took the token, then turned and walked back.

He didn't give any explanation either.

It would be better if you could hide yourself. It's obviously not worth it to try to be in the spotlight for a while.

Fortunately, no one came out to mock, and this kind of scene is almost rare to see.

Most people don't bother to pay attention to people with whom they have a casual relationship.

If it is an enemy, he will try every possible means to kill the other person behind his back. Verbal disputes are very low-level for a warrior.
