The imperial examination system is indeed a powerful tool for attracting talents. Although these people use the rare treasures for their own use and have no public intention to "turn it over to the court", it is an instinctive choice to obey management and wait for arrangements.
Yan Yuandi, who was recruited in Yelu City before, is like this, and so is Wang Cheng now. It can be seen that the order of rule has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the Daqian orthodoxy is still very appealing.
Wang Cheng is still a successful scholar and is living in the capital waiting for the exams to begin. It is impossible for him to drop everything and join the path of strangers without caring about anything.
What's more, ordinary people have limited information channels. When they are frightened by evil spirits and ghosts, they immediately think that they are entangled. They hope that the imperial court will send envoys to save them, but it is too late, so how can they escape?
It was helpless to say that the court had to rely on some superstitious things to frighten the common people and make them think that they were in big trouble so that they could be honest.
Although some foolish men and women would ask monks or goddesses to perform rituals because of this, the imperial court had already secretly monitored them and they could not escape.
Li Fan thought for a while and simply made it clear: "I won't hide it from you now. In fact, you are not entangled by any evil spirits. The painting you got was not transformed by a ghost, but was possessed by a strange spirit. A rare treasure formed.
The so-called weirdness is an unknown mysterious force..."
According to the information provided by the Demon Suppression Division, this person inexplicably picked up a rare treasure in the form of a picture.
Of course, it's not an exotic treasure with a mysterious realm like "Skeleton Fantasy Picture", but an ordinary low-level exotic treasure that contains some minor magic.
But this is enough for him to become a stranger and step into a new world.
But in Li Fan's eyes, it was like this.
Stranger (Wang Cheng)
Exotic Treasures (Pictures of Beauty)
"The eerie beauty condensed from the book illustrations created by obsession can be summoned and manifested by thoughts."
This guy dares to believe Yan Ruyu's story in the book, and unintentionally resonated with it while reading some idle books.
If it was in his previous life, Li Fan would be very envious of him.
But in this life, as a young prince, I really don’t have any trouble seeing such information.
Unless the summoned strange beauty possesses some earth-shattering power.
Wang Cheng didn't know that his true identity had been seen through. After listening for a while, his expression changed several times. He finally came back to his senses and focused on Li Fan's last request.
"So, I have become a stranger and must join the Demon Suppression Division and follow the arrangements?"
"Don't worry, I won't delay your merit examination!"
With just one sentence, Li Chuan made the other party put his thoughts away, and even cited the peak of his previous colleagues as ready-made examples.
"I have a friend who was a Jinshi in the middle of the year before last and still works for the Demon Suppression Division.
If you join the Demon Suppression Division, you will not only be able to solve future problems, but you will also be able to participate in next spring as usual. Once you are in high school, your title and status will be improved accordingly.
The imperial court gives preferential treatment to scholars like you. There are no restrictions except that you must move to live near Beiya.
For the time being, there will not be any overseas assignments for you. You only need to prepare for the exam with peace of mind, copy some secret files from time to time, and organize files and documents. "
At this time, they have to rely on drawing big pie to win people's hearts. It is not easy for them to intimidate such scholars who have the status of being a scholar. They can only draw people into the organization by describing a bright future.
As for the strange recovery, the risk of losing control, and working overtime, we will talk about that later.
"Well, everything will be arranged by the court."
Wang Cheng decisively agreed without any surprise.
Li Fan was also quick and quick. After taking care of him, he left three people to monitor and help with the move, and then rushed to the next house.
The one we visited this time was also an ordinary family reported in the local square. A young foreign couple stayed in a residential house in Yongle Square and made money by opening a cake shop.
Normally, the couple would go to Qixiamenzhi Street to sell a stall, and during the Sanliujiu Market Fair, they would go to Dongshi. After the results were reported, the officials of Yonglefang simply arrested them and imprisoned them.
When they arrived, the chief there was still very proud and rushed to take credit.
"It's just nonsense, that's not a criminal!"
When Li Fan learned this, his face turned dark and he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
That was the time when the newly promoted aliens were most emotionally sensitive and their strength was most unstable.
What if this, all going well, provokes resistance?
Fortunately, the husband who got the exotic treasure was used to being a submissive man and had no weird ideas, so he didn't know how to use it even if he got the exotic treasure.
Just a few days were not enough for him to figure out anything, and he actually just stayed there.
Li Chuan and others secretly rejoiced. After briefly explaining the situation, they made him agree to join the Demon Suppressing Division and became a Demon Suppressing Envoy capable of holding the post of corps leader.
This is a grassroots deacon under a small banner, with an eighth grade. When ordinary people suddenly hear such benefits, of course they are absolutely willing to accept it. There is nothing to refuse?
"It's not good at the grassroots level. It would be bad if something happens."
After leaving, Fang Hong couldn't help but sigh.
"Then it's hard to explain the situation. What if you find out that you can become an official if you have a rare treasure, and something happens about killing people and seizing the treasure?
The imperial court didn't care about the civilians being killed and taking treasures, but what they were afraid of was their resistance before they died. "
"That's true."
The biggest advantage of working at Lantai is that you can read the secret files. Various secret files record some cases of improper handling of the strange early stage.
After that, Li Fan and others went to find another new stranger, a scoundrel who had nothing to do all day long.
His treatment was even worse. He was captured by the local police and taken to the Chang'an County government office to be imprisoned.
Fortunately, there was no major disaster.
Those strangers among the people are still in the stage of possessing rare treasures without knowing it, which also proves that the ruling order before the resurgence of Weirdness still has strong inertia.
Li Chuan and the others didn't have much to say, so they secretly rejoiced and coaxed and scared them into the Demon Suppression Division.
Next, a little boy suddenly fell ill, his whole body was swollen and ulcerated. His parents didn't know what to do, they just thought they couldn't feed him, and the family was in despair.
Fang Hong looked at the situation at his home and slapped the table: "Stop crying, sell this child of yours to my family as a servant! I am the son of Uncle Fu Chang, and I cannot treat him badly!"
The family was stunned, but soon became overjoyed.
"How much are you willing to pay, Master?"
Well, when they heard that the son of an earl was willing to buy him as a slave, they stopped crying and making trouble.
"Fifty taels of silver. After taking him back, I will be responsible for treating his illness. If he is saved, he will be treated like an ordinary servant. But we have agreed in advance that I will establish a letter as evidence and I will also have this place." The district chief will report to the official office together."
