Chapter 56 056 [Job Change]

"Some advanced bewitching martial arts can indeed make people fall into hallucinations without realizing it."

"Now it makes sense. This charade of an immortal descending to earth was clearly orchestrated by Zhang Shou, which is why he deliberately arranged for the immortal to pass on his magic.

By doing this, he is clearly cutting off our source of income."

"I really can't understand it. In the past two years, several of our families have spent a lot of money to buy elixirs from Zhang Shou, and our relationship has always been friendly.

Why is he suddenly turning against us?"

"I think this person has been doing too well in the past few years, and as a result, he's lost his mind due to greed. I'm afraid he wants to use the prestige of being an immortal to trample all of our families under his feet."

"How is Zhang Shou's cultivation?"

"He has excellent aptitude. Although he is only twenty years old, his energy and blood are already as fierce as a wolf or a tiger. If he concentrates on practicing hard for ten years, I'm afraid he will most likely be promoted to the Qi Transformation Realm.

I used to be very optimistic about this young man and even considered marrying my daughter to him, but now it seems he won't be able to do so."

"Dad, please don't talk nonsense. I don't want to marry a Taoist doctor who pretends to be a god."

"No matter how talented he is, if he dares to go against us, he will die."

“Speaking of which, the elixirs and talisman water prepared by Zhang Shou are indeed extraordinary.

If we can get the formulas for those medicines, we can share them with each other and learn what we have."

"My Huang family can provide 800 soldiers, and after the mission is accomplished, we will divide them among all the people in the fort under his rule."

"My Li family can provide 600 soldiers. It's not too much to give him all the forts and fields."

"No, no, the county government wants to send 300 soldiers this time. After the mission is completed, they want that well-built fort, and they also want to take away half of the population and half of the land."

"This……"

"Speaking of which, Zhao Gou has been staying in Zhangjiabao for the past few days. He wouldn't be colluding with Zhang Shou, would he?"

"Of course not. That old man Zhao Gou is almost dead. How could he take the initiative to get involved in such a big thing?"

Everyone discussed the matter in the county government office for a full hour. While they agreed on the idea of ​​dealing with Zhang Shou, they also agreed on the distribution of benefits.

They left the county government office at the beginning of the night and went home to mobilize their troops and generals, intending to teach Zhang a lesson.

In this world, most families don't like to set up their bases in the city. After all, a family can form an independent fortress, which is safe enough and can be self-contained. No one would be willing to live with others.

After sending away the wealthy families in the county and the idlers standing by, the only ones left in the lobby of the county government office were the young and beautiful witch and the county magistrate, who was already in his fifties.

Seeing that there were no outsiders here, the witch threw herself into the arms of the county magistrate.

"It's getting late. We still have to go find Zhang Shou tomorrow to deal with him. Let's get some rest."

The county magistrate was filled with passion and picked her up and placed her on the desk in the hall. However, even as he was doing good deeds, a trace of worry still flashed through his mind.

“What happened today can be explained by martial arts, but how on earth did Zhang Shou manage to deceive over 20,000 people at the same time?

Does this kind of martial arts really exist in the world?
Oh... forget it, if I can't figure it out, I won't think about it anymore.

"I'm still worried about state affairs while lying in bed. I'm really a good official in the Yanhan Dynasty."

……

An hour ago, Chen Sheng used his magic to create a large-scale illusion in front of everyone, and then hid in a house not far from the county government office.

It's dark under the lamp.

The most dangerous places are often the safest places. This principle applies to any era.

This two-story house was prepared by him over the past few years. The front yard was disguised as a shop selling soy sauce on the neighboring street, and the second yard was converted into a warehouse for storing soy sauce, run by two loyal Taiping Dao believers.

The dry well in the second courtyard was dug deeper and developed into a large secret room with a passage leading directly to the Fuyang River. It was extremely closed and safe.

After today's sacrifice to the gods, Chen Sheng swam all the way from the Fuyang River into the secret room under the well, and couldn't wait to look at the panel.

He saw the original Taoist profession on it emitting a faint light. After he waited patiently for an incense stick of time, the words on it turned into a new profession.

[Profession 2]: Taoist
Level: Lv1 (1/100)

Talent: Clear mind, accepting the Dao

Taoist magic: Evergreen Mantra, Water Mirror Technique, Fireworks Technique, Qi Healing Talisman, Alchemy Cauldron Fire...

Divine arts: blessing, relief from misfortune, bestowing talismans

Chen Sheng's method of preaching by pretending to be a god really helped him to successfully change his job.

Before this, he had used the plague to spread his teachings in Pingxiang County, causing many people in the county to become believers of the Taiping Sect and know that he was a compassionate Taoist priest.

But today's drama has created at least 20,000 shallow believers and a considerable number of fanatical believers at one time. The influence of the two is far from comparable.

As the river god sacrifice ended in a whimper, the 20,000 people had already deeply accepted the idea that Chen Sheng had been taught the Dharma by an immortal, and soon he succeeded in changing his profession.

Chen Sheng could feel that with the emergence of the new profession, a small white talisman appeared out of thin air in his Yin Shen.

He knew it almost instantly. This was the magic power that the Taoist priests gained after they began to bear the weight of faith.

[Blessing]: Granting blessings to others can slightly increase their luck. The lower the status of the person, the more obvious the blessing effect will be, and the higher the status of the person, the weaker the blessing effect will be.

[Relieve Misfortune]: A divine spell that can alleviate the misfortunes of others. Similar to blessing, it also has the limitation of being effective against those of high status.

[Bestowing a Divine Talisman]: Compose a secondary divine talisman and bestow it upon others, allowing them to absorb the power of faith and perform limited divine arts.

When the leader of a sect is unable to attend to all of his duties, he can grant his disciples secondary divine talismans that can be taken back at any time, allowing them to become the backbone of the sect and spread miracles and the gospel to the world on his behalf.

Chen Sheng felt the presence of the divine talisman, and when he opened his eyes he saw wisps of the power of incense and faith floating in the void, which clearly merged into the Yin God and were then absorbed by the white divine talisman.

Under the nourishment of incense, the talisman continued to emit clear and peaceful light, illuminating all the dark corners in Yin Shen's heart and filling his body and mind with a sense of peace and satisfaction.

In the quiet joy of a new life, Chen Sheng heard some faint prayers:
Some were grateful to the immortals for saving their children; some were thankful that they no longer had to pay sacrifices to the river gods; some were praying for a good harvest next year; and the people of Zhangjiabao longed to live their current good life forever...

All the respect and gratitude related to Chen Sheng gathered at this moment and turned into real and authentic power.

Although the path of incense and faith is a way to gather people, without the support of believers, the magic will become water without a source and a tree without roots.

But Chen Sheng had no prejudice against this kind of power.

Incense, candles and vows are external things, but is spiritual energy not an external thing as well?
It is true that incense is much more difficult to obtain than spiritual energy, but if Taoist magic goes to a world without spiritual energy, it will also be useless.

Compared to the unpredictable future, he values ​​the power in his hands now more.
