"Master Hongqing was punished with a thunder whip for three hundred hours. The Thunderbolt Division of Beidi tortured him for the number of three sticks of incense. Master Hongqing's body was not injured. The detailed case of the punishment imposed by Thunderbolt Division of Beidi is preserved in the Taixuan Capital Province. I would like to memorialize .”
This is the original copy of the detailed torture case sent from the Beidi Thunder Division to Xun Kuang, the provincial governor of Taixuan Province. After the Beidi Thunder Division inflicted the thunder whip punishment on the immortal officials, they would record the detailed torture case. , the original version was reported to Taixuan Capital Province and archived, while the copy was archived by Beidi Thunder Division itself.
After Xun Kuang read the detailed torture case in his hand, he closed the case book, stamped it with the seal of Taixuan Capital Province, and summoned a fifth-rank Wenlin from Taixuan Zuodian to order Shi Dao: "Send the case book immediately to It is sealed in Langhuan Pavilion."
After Shu Lingshi took the case, he immediately bowed and said: "Yes."
In this way, Fang Jian's first case file was found in Langhuan Pavilion, the largest database in the three realms, and it was also a case file on punishment.
As soon as Fang Jian left Lei Bu after being tortured, he saw a group of familiar figures waiting for him outside the gate of Lei Bu's Immortal Palace.
The leader is a white-haired, mighty and handsome divine dog, which is the Roaring Sky Dog.
Behind Roaring Sky Dog stood Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen, and Cen Biqing, with Cen Biqing holding Hei Dan in his arms.
"Fang Jian, what's the matter with you? Why did you come to the Lei Department as soon as you came back?" Roaring Sky Dog asked with some confusion when he saw Fang Jian.
Fang Jian smiled slightly, but did not answer the question. Instead, he said to Roaring Dog: "What reward did you receive?"
When Roaring Sky Dog heard this, he didn't care why Fang Jian came to the Lei Department, and immediately said: "I didn't get a title, I just received a reward. The chief envoy rewarded me with six million merits."
When Fang Jian heard this, he immediately raised his hands and said with a smile: "Six million meritorious deeds? Congratulations."
Roaring Sky Dog is also beaming with joy. It follows True Lord Erlang and doesn't care about the rank of the official. No matter how low the level of Roaring Sky Dog is, as the sacred beast of True Lord Erlang, who dares to look down on it?
On the contrary, it is six million merits, which is more affordable for Xiaotian Dog, because it can exchange Samantabhadra Bodhisattva for Three Wonderful Golden Lotus Seeds and let Erlang God make elixirs for it.
When he thought of this, Xiaotian Quan felt extremely happy.
"Uncle Hongqing, I have nothing." Hei Dan, who was held in Cen Biqing's arms, raised his head and said to Fang Jian with tears in his eyes.
Fang Jian laughed, stepped forward and stretched out his hands. Seeing this, Cen Biqing immediately handed the black egg to Fang Jian.
Fang Jian hugged Heitan and said, "If you don't cry, Uncle Master will give you a reward."
After saying that, Fang Jian looked at Xu Xian and his wife, who were looking at each other like glue, and asked, "What rewards did the four Taoist friends Su Qing and the two of you receive?"
Bai Suzhen looked carefully at Fang Jian's face. This sight made Fang Jian's body get goosebumps. Bai Suzhen's eyes... seemed like an old mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
"Madam." Xu Xian noticed Fang Jian's strange behavior and quickly reached out and pushed Bai Suzhen gently.
Bai Suzhen quietly retracted her gaze in an instant, and then said: "As soon as Master Lao Hongqing asks, we will all be granted the title of Heavenly Court."
"Oh?" Fang Jian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and immediately raised his hands and said, "Congratulations to all fellow Taoists."
If you achieve the heavenly realm, you are considered to be half of the heavenly realm.
Fang Jian was a little curious when he thought of this, and said, "May I ask what kind of status you have been granted, fellow Taoists?"
The fruition status of heaven is the same as that of Taoism. There are six types: real person, true king, heavenly master, Taoist king, emperor and deity.
But what needs to be specially explained here is that the honorific titles carried after the fruit position and the Tao number are different.
For example, Master Hongqing, although he is also called 'Zhenren', is not a fruit status, because 'Hongqing' is a Tao title given by the Nine Heavens Xuannv, not a title of fruit status.
Bai Suzhen said: "Senior Sister Suqing was awarded the title 'Renren Yide', Senior Sister Suhua was awarded the title 'Renren Yiren', Senior Sister Suyu was awarded the title 'Renren Yimin', and Senior Sister Suling was awarded the title 'Renren Yigong'."
Then Bai Suzhen said: "As for me, I will be named 'Yizhen Zhenren'."
After Bai Suzhen finished speaking, Xu Xian said: "I am 'Zhenren Wen Lie'."
After Fang Jian heard about the achievements of everyone, he secretly thought that these titles were quite good, especially Xu Xian's title Wen Lie, which had a richer meaning. It said that he was diligent in learning, good at asking questions, kind and loving to the people, and compassionate to the people and courteous. , It has made great contributions to reassuring the people. This evaluation is already quite high.
Although Bai Suzhen and others are disciples of Taoism and Xu Xian is a disciple of Buddhism, Heaven is the co-owner of the three realms, and the status granted by Heaven is the same as that of Taoism and Buddhism.
Finally, Fang Jian looked at Cen Biqing aside and asked with a smile: "Fairy Qing, what about you?"
Cen Biqing couldn't help but smile proudly after hearing this, and then said to Fang Jian: "Guess."
Fang Jian heard this and said, "Is it an official position?"
Cen Biqing shook her head and said, "I'm not suitable for being an official. You guess again."
Fang Jian smiled and said: "Is that merit? Or fruit status?"
"It's not merit. As for fruition, I'm not qualified yet." Cen Biqing said.
The roaring dog on the side said: "The reward Xiaoqing received is much better than the fruition status. Even those with fruition status may not be able to get this reward."
Hearing what Bai Suzhen said, Fang Jian immediately knew what it was. After all, Qingyan Tongzi had told him before, and then he lent the Taihuang Bell to Cen Biqing.
"It's an invitation to the Peach Banquet," Fang Jian said.
Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen were shocked as soon as these words came out. Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen did not go to Taixuan Hall to receive the reward, but were rewarded by the imperial edict outside the hall.
But Roaring Heavenly Dog had entered Taixuan Hall to pay homage to Jiutian Xuannv, and so had Cen Biqing.
Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen were still wondering how much contribution Cen Biqing had made. He was actually able to go to Taixuan Palace to have an audience with Su Qing and the others. But Cen Biqing never said what her reward was after she came out, so Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen didn't ask.
At this time, when they heard Fang Jian mention Cen Biqing's reward, Xu and Bai realized that Cen Biqing had definitely made a huge contribution.
"Xiao Qing, is this true?" Bai Suzhen asked Cen Biqing.
Although Cen Biqing was also surprised that Fang Jian could guess it, she still nodded to Bai Suzhen and said, "Yes, sister, the chief envoy didn't let me say anything..."
"It turned out to be an invitation to the Peach Banquet!" Xu Xian was extremely shocked. "Even in my Buddhist sect, only Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats can have this qualification... What did Xiao Qingqian do?"
Cen Biqing looked at Xu Xian and her sister's shocked and disbelieving eyes, and she couldn't be happier. She now finally had a full sense of accomplishment.
"Sister, we are here to pick up Fang Jian and go to Tianhefang. Let's talk on the way." Cen Biqing had long wanted to go shopping in Tianhefang. This time she finally got the chance, so she heard that Fang Jian had come back to receive the title and came to After arriving at Lei Department, he immediately
Taking Xu and Bai along, they invited Roaring Sky Dog to pick up Fang Jian.
"Are you going to Tianhefang?" Fang Jian was slightly startled, then thought about it for a moment and then nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
So everyone headed outside the Nantian Gate and entered the Tianhe Fairy Path.
In the Tianhe Immortal Path, Cen Biqing told everyone about the merits of the person who held the Taihuang Bell and became a demon in front of him, and everyone suddenly realized that Cen Biqing had such great merits before that.
Finally, Cen Biqing asked Fang Jian again: "Fang Jian, what reward did you get this time?"
"Me?" Fang Jian smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "Promoted to a third-grade immortal official, two kinds of treasures, plus ten million merits."
Hearing Fang Jian's words, Bai Suzhen said with a hint of emotion: "Master Hongqing is really young and promising. He has only been a Taoist for a hundred years, but he is already a third-grade immortal official in heaven. He really has a bright future."
When Xu Xian heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, it's really admirable."
But the roaring dog on the side was not happy, "What's so strange about the third rank? I'm still a first-rank general." Then it turned to look at Fang Jian, and said sincerely: "Fang Jian, you are not as good as me."
"..." Everyone was startled when they heard this, even Fang Jian was stunned.
After Cen Biqing came to his senses, he even laughed, but soon burst out laughing again. Didn't Roaring Sky Dog just say, "Fang Jian, are you not even as good as a dog?"
