On the first level of the sky, look south to Buzhou, Chiyun Tiangong, and Tianjun Mansion.
Xuanling Tianjun of Nanzhan Buzhou Tianjun Mansion went to the Pantao Conference, so now the entire Nantian Mansion is in power on behalf of Shangshu Bai Zhen.
Jinxia clicked on the photo, and in Wangshu Tower, Master Bai Zhen personally brewed a cup of fine spiritual tea and handed it to Fang Jian.
Fang Jian reached out to take the tea cup, and then said: "The scenery of Buzhou in the south is more magnificent, majestic and vast than Juluzhou in the north and Shenzhou in the east."
Master Bai Zhen smiled and said: "After all, it is the birthplace of the heavenly and human races, the homeland of the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors. The natural scenery is majestic and the jade palace is covered with light."
Speaking of this, Master Bai Zhen looked at Fang Jian, who was wearing coarse linen clothes worn by mortals, and said, "But when did Master Hongqing become so leisurely and start playing in the world?"
Fang Jian said: "I am inspecting Nanzhan Buzhou."
When Master Bai Zhen heard this, his hair stood up subconsciously and his heart trembled. However, he quickly came to his senses and asked, "Could it be the complaint submitted by Nantian Mansion earlier?"
"Almost." Fang Jian glanced at Master Bai Zhen and said, "But by the way, let's see how the immortal officials in Nanzhan Buzhou are doing."
Master Bai Zhen smiled and said: "Master Hongqing, this is not necessary, right?"
Fang Jian looked at Master Bai Zhen's expression and said thoughtfully: "No need? What do you mean? Is there something wrong with Nanzhan Buzhou? You don't want me to check?"
"No, no, there is absolutely no such thing." Master Bai Zhen said: "Now Xuan Ling Tianjun is going to Yaochi for a meeting. There are many affairs in Nanzhan Buzhou, so it is really inappropriate to disturb Zhou Zhang."
Fang Jian said: "If Nantian Mansion manages Nanzhan Buzhou Immortal Officials well, what's the point of checking?"
Master Bai Zhen sighed and said: "Who doesn't know your name, Master Hongqing? In fact, as an immortal official, as long as you can uphold the laws of heaven and handle your own affairs well, you don't need to go into some details. Master Hongqing, you need to know 'If the water is clear, there will be no fish'."
Fang Jian took a sip of tea and said, "If it had been in the past, based on what you said, Minister, I would have been the first to investigate."
Master Bai Zhen smiled and said: "For me, I can just check it with Master Hongqing, but it is not easy to select an immortal official in heaven, and to be an immortal official on this earth and earth, you have to adapt to changes. . Master Hongqing is also a land god. You should understand that sometimes in order to do your own thing well, you have to be flexible as a last resort, as long as you don't make big mistakes."
When Fang Jian heard this, he remembered that when he was the earth god, he had collected a spiritual ginseng from Zhou Qinghan in order to choose a cave for Zhou Qinghan.
However, in the end, Riyou Shen was still sued, and the spiritual ginseng himself was not left behind, and was all returned to Zhou Qinghan.
The meaning of Master Bai Zhen's words is very simple. Grassroots work is very complicated and trivial, and small gods like the land gods sometimes have to cross the line. As long as they don't make fundamental mistakes, there is no need to delve deeper. .
Speaking of this, Master Bai Zhen hesitated for a moment, and then said to Fang Jian: "Master Hongqing, I have something to say here that may offend you if I say it."
Fang Jian smiled lightly when he heard this and said, "There is no harm in talking about it, Minister."
Master Bai Zhen said sternly: "Master Hongqing, you are now a third-grade immortal official in Heaven, a popular person in the eyes of the Great Heavenly Lord and the Great Envoy. But now that you have reached a higher level, it is inevitable that you cannot see the difficulties of the lower-level immortal officials. Master Hongqing, what do you think about those who are above fifth grade?
I have no problem with some immortal officials strictly enforcing heaven's laws. But we cannot be so harsh towards those immortal officials below the sixth rank who are working in the human world. "
When Fang Jian heard this, he felt a little unhappy and said, "Is Shangshu saying that I can't see the low places now that I've climbed high?"
Master Bai Zhen smiled slightly, pointed at Fang Jian's cloth and said, "I believe this cloth is the best answer."
"Hahaha." When Fang Jian heard this, he burst out laughing, and the displeasure in his heart was instantly wiped away.
Fang Jian took a sip of the spiritual tea and said, "I also know what you said, Minister, so this is one of the purposes of my inspection in the lower realms."
"Oh?" Master Bai Zhen looked solemn, and then said, "Master Hongqing is interested."
While the two were talking, a god general came quickly to Wangshu Tower and reported to Master Bai Zhen: "Reporting to the minister, Su Yan, the land god of Daliuzhuang, has gathered the two demons of Lushan to seek an audience outside Nantian Mansion."
Master Bai Zhen was surprised when he heard this and said: "You came very quickly."
Fang Jian had already told Master Bai Zhen about the incident at Daliuzhuang, so Master Bai Zhen was not surprised.
"Let them go to Fatian Hall to wait for you." Master Bai Zhen said.
The god general bowed down to accept the order and said: "Follow the law and decree."
After the general left, Master Bai Zhen looked at Fang Jian and said, "Master Hongqing, you pointed this out. Do you think I should ask them for the talisman of Yang Shen?"
Fang Jian said: "Although I directed them to come to Nantian Mansion, I have no guarantee. Whether they can get Nantian Mansion's talisman edict depends on their own opportunities."
"Opportunity?" Master Bai Zhen blinked, then stood up with a smile and said: "Master Hongqing, you drink tea here first, and I will go and see how their chances are."
"Excuse me, Minister." Fang Jian said.
Master Bai Zhen stood up slowly, turned into a breeze and left Wangshu Tower.
Nantian Mansion, Chiyun Tiangong, outside Fatian Palace.
Su Yan warned Xu Bao and Jiang Lan for the third time, "When you meet the Master Shangshu and the generals later, you must bow before them. You must not be rude."
Xu Bao and Jiang Lan, who were somewhat arrogant in human fashion and could maintain their superiority when facing Su Yan, did not become extremely restrained and nervous standing outside the majestic Fatian Palace.
Because they knew in their hearts that the place they were at at this time was the highest immortal mansion that held the authority of the entire Nanzhan Continent.
Not to mention that Xu Bao is about to pick the True Immortal Dao Fruit. Even if he has already picked the True Immortal Dao Fruit, he does not have the qualifications to be proud and arrogant here.
This is not an earth temple, nor is the earth god living here. If you were an earth god, you would be scolded if you scolded him, and you would be offended if you offended him. Ordinary earth gods would really shrink their necks and endure such a tone.
But this is Nanzhan Buzhou Tianjun Mansion, and the people who live here can determine their life and death with just one sentence.
"I know, Earth God." Xu Bao and Jiang Lan said to Su Yan.
On both sides of them, stood majestic generals wearing divine armor. Each of them held a law enforcement weapon and stared ahead with majestic eyes.
It was also the first time for Xu Bao and Jiang Lan to come to Nantian Mansion, and they were extremely nervous facing this situation.
At this moment, a person slowly walked out of the Fatian Temple in front of him. This person was tall, wearing golden armor and divine robes. His aura was like a rainbow, and his body was covered with fairy light. At first glance, he was a heavenly general who had achieved enlightenment and became an immortal.
The pressure that this heavenly general brought to Xu Bao and Jiang Lan was also extremely huge, and even made Xu Bao feel a sense of despair, because even a demon cultivator like him who was about to pick up the True Immortal Dao Fruit would face this heavenly general. A feeling of insignificance and powerlessness also emerged in my heart.
At this time, Su Yan whispered to Xu Bao and Jiang Lan: "This is General Xiang Yuan, the envoy of Nantian Mansion."
When Xu Bao and Jiang Lan heard this, they immediately bowed to Xiang Yuan and said, "Xu Bao (Jiang Lan), the demon cultivator of Xuyin Cave in Mount Xun, pays homage to the general who transferred the ultimatum."
Xiang Yuan nodded slightly, and then said: "According to the law of Shangshu, Su Yan, the land god of Daliuzhuang, is ordered to pay an audience to Xu Bao and Jiang Lan, the demon cultivators of Xuyin Cave in Lushan Mountain."
"Follow the law and decree!" One god and two demons worshiped in unison.
Then the three of them followed Xiang Yuan into the Fatian Hall. As soon as Xu Bao and Jiang Lan entered the hall, they felt a magnificent force above their heads suppressing the two of them. Their faces turned pale, their whole bodies were trembling, and their muscles and bones were weak.
But soon a breeze passed by, and the majestic power above their heads dissipated instantly. The two of them took a deep breath, but when they reacted, they found that their backs were soaked with sweat.
"This is the power of the demon-suppressing weapon on the palace gate. This thing will be activated when encountering demonic energy. However, I have temporarily sealed it, so don't be afraid." Master Bai Zhen sat on the jade platform on the palace steps. He slowly said to Xu Bao and Jiang Lan.
Xu Bao and Jiang Lan raised their heads and saw Master Bai Zhen sitting high above the palace steps, wearing a bright red first-grade immortal official robe and a purple and gold Qingyang crown.
On the lower left side of the main hall, there are three heavenly generals sitting cross-legged who have the same energy, immortal official armor, and robes as Xiang Yuan. They are the three heavenly generals who capture, kill, cut down altars, and destroy temples.
"Su Yan, the land god of Daliuzhuang, pays homage to Lord Shangshu." Su Yan quickly stepped forward and bowed.
Xu Bao and Jiang Lan also reacted quickly and hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage.
"I already know your purpose of coming." Master Bai Zhen said, "Su Yan, you handled this matter very well."
Can it be bad? Master Hongqing said you did a good job, can I say you did a bad job?
When Su Yan heard this, he said excitedly: "I don't dare to praise you as a minister. I am just a compassionate person on the upper body, and the heart of all souls on the lower level, and uphold the law impartially."
Master Bai Zhen nodded slightly, then pointed to the side and said: "Give me a seat for the land god of Daliuzhuang."
A boy immediately held a futon and placed it under the ultimatum envoy. Su Yan bowed his head and thanked him with a grateful face, and then sat down on the futon.
Later, Master Bai Zhen asked again: "Has the case record been completed?"
Su Yan quickly took out a jade slip and said, "I would like to inform you, Master Shangshu, that the case of snake hunting in Daliuzhuang has been fully recorded."
"Send it up." Master Bai Zhen said.
The boy walked down the hall steps again, took the jade slip from Su Yan, turned around and walked up the hall steps, and presented it to Master Bai Zhen.
After Master Bai Zhen took the jade slip and looked at it carefully, he said to Xu Bao and Jiang Lan: "Do you two want the little snake demon to return to the sun?"
Jiang Lan was the first to kneel down and bow to Master Bai Zhen: "Your Excellency Shangshu, my son is kind-hearted by nature and has never harmed anyone. He is undeserving of this misfortune. Moreover, Xuanjian Zheng Li has also promised My son has returned to the Yang world. I also ask Master Shangshu to be kind and grant my son to return to the Yang world. From now on, I and my husband will work hard to practice good deeds and accumulate more good deeds to repay God's kindness."
Master Bai Zhen said: "A good death, an untimely death, or an untimely death are all determined by God. Moreover, your two sons broke into Daliuzhuang without authorization and were beaten to death by mortals. This is also the common law of nature. When the dead are resurrected, the dead return to the sun. , This is against the law of heaven. As for the promise made by Xuanjian Zheng Li, he has no such authority, so the promise is invalid."
Hearing Master Bai Zhen's words, Xu Bao also knelt down and said to Master Bai Zhen with a sudden change of heart: "Please show mercy to Master Shangshu. My husband and I are willing to die on behalf of our child!"
When Master Bai Zhen heard this, he immediately asked Xu Bao: "I think you are about to achieve Zhengguo and become an immortal. Are you willing to give up becoming an immortal in exchange for your son returning to the world?"
Xu Bao gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! Please ask Master Shangshu to fulfill my wish!"
Jiang Lan also said at this moment: "There is no dearest relative in the world than parents and brothers, and there is no dearest love in the world than the connection of blood. Although the two of us are demon cultivators, we have also been taught by heaven and earth. We are not people who eat hair and drink blood, eat people and harm lives. I only wish that Lord Shangshu Seeing that my husband and I have never rebelled against chaos and harmed others, we are so kind to you. Even if we live three lives, we will still be grateful to Master Shangshu."
Hearing Jiang Lan's words, Master Bai Zhen was immediately moved. He looked at Xu Bao and Jiang Lan and said, "I didn't expect that although you two are demon cultivators, you are affectionate and righteous, worthy of your natural upbringing and moral education. This is why This is your chance. In this case, when I check your life history, if you really have not done any evil or harmed anyone, I will give you a talisman."
When Xu Bao and Jiang Lan heard this, their whole bodies trembled as if they were electrocuted. Then a burst of gratitude and ecstasy surged in their hearts. They immediately kowtowed to Master Bai Zhen and kept saying words of gratitude.
Then Master Bai Zhen sent a letter to Ling Shi, asking him to retrieve the life records of Xu Bao and Jiang Lan for review.
In the end, it was verified that although the two of them were demon cultivators, they had not done anything to harm others. Although there were many small stains, these were normal for demon cultivators.
So in the end, Master Bai Zhen personally drew up the talisman, stamped it with the seal of Nantian Mansion, and gave it to Xu Bao, saying: "You two go to Fengdu with this talisman, and you can receive a yang body to return the yang to you." .”
After Xu Bao and Jiang Lan received the imperial edict, they were immediately grateful and kept thanking Master Bai Zhen.
Master Bai Zhen waved his hand and said: "You two, please remember that human beings and monsters have different paths. After your son returns to the Yang world, he needs a good life to teach him to cultivate diligently and be good. Do not go to human residences at will, so as not to suffer unintended consequences. Disaster."
When Xu Bao and Jiang Lan heard this, they immediately bowed their heads and said, "I sincerely follow the teachings of Master Shangshu."
"Go." Master Bai Zhen waved his hand.
Xu Bao and Jiang Lan once again bowed and kowtowed to express their gratitude, and then under the guidance of Su Yan, they exited the Fatian Palace and left the Chiyun Tiangong.
After leaving Chiyun Tiangong, Su Yan, the Earth God, said to Xu Bao and Jiang Lan: "Now that the two Taoist friends have obtained the Fu Zhao, and the matter of your son's return to Yang has been settled, my matter ends here, and the next step is for the two." It’s about a fellow Taoist.”
Xu Bao and Jiang Lan no longer had any prejudice or disdain for Su Yan at this moment, but instead felt gratitude and respect.
So after hearing Su Yan's words, the two of them immediately bowed to Su Yan and said, "Now I have to thank the Earth God. After my husband and I take the yang body and return the child's yang, we will definitely thank the Earth God again."
When Su Yan heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, I don't dare to accept your deep thanks. As long as you are dedicated to doing good and don't harm the living beings in the world, you will live up to my painstaking efforts."
When Xu Bao and Jiang Lan heard this, they immediately said solemnly: "Don't worry, Lord of the Land! From now on, we will work hard to cultivate merit and never do anything that harms the common people. Anyone who exceeds this will be punished by heaven and earth!"
"Okay, then I'll go back first. You go to Fengdu to get your body." Su Yan said with a smile on his face and cupped his hands.
"Lord, go slowly." Xu Bao and Jiang Lan also bowed their hands.
Then the three of them went their separate ways, Su Yan returned to the Earth Temple in Daliuzhuang, while Xu Bao and Jiang Lan took Fu Zhao to Fengdu.
