Jining Prefecture, Jiaxiang County, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal have promoted the prosperity of trade here. This is also a relatively prosperous Dajin ferry in Yanzhou Prefecture.
The boatman was going to buy goods and left manpower here to look after him. Ji Xiang distributed talismans for free to the men who stayed behind. The boatman on the boat knew that Ji Xiang was a big shot with real skills. After getting these talismans, they all seemed to have picked them up. Collected like gold.
You never know when you will be saved! Having these talismans in hand is equivalent to having an extra life.
As for the incense consumed by Ji Xiang, it is not worth mentioning.
"Pindao, are you going to take a walk around the streets to see if there is anything good you can do?"
Good deeds? The boatmen all looked at each other. Could it be that you, the high official, were going to help the old lady cross the road?
When the time comes, don’t let people be so frightened that they kneel down and twitch.
"Of course it won't be for normal people. Pindao will find some monsters and evil gods to focus on helping."
The fastest way to do one thousand three hundred good deeds is to cut down mountains and destroy temples!
When a murderous evil god is caught and Bangbang is beaten to death with two punches, shouldn't the good deeds of rescuing the people, eliminating harm for the people, and doing justice for God have to be at least hundreds?
Of course, if the local belief in evil gods is strong, then the good deeds achieved by cutting down the temples of evil gods may be offset by the resistance and resentment of the people... After all, the customs in each place are different, and cutting down mountains and destroying temples Although it is fast, it must be adapted to local conditions.
Now nine difficulties have not been overcome. It is better to take the initiative to encounter difficulties and solve them as soon as possible.
So if Ji Xiang wants to go around the place and really can't find any monsters, he can fight the White Lotus Sect, and he should be able to earn a lot of good deeds.
But now the fist has not hit the real thing, and there is no way to talk about good deeds, so everything is just Ji Xiang's personal thoughts.
"Ah this..."
The boatmen were a little stunned when they heard Ji Xiang's words, and then they all said, "You go ahead, we will wait for you here. We won't sail the boat until you come back." You are a big shot, you are really good at chatting with monsters.
If you say something wrong, you will be killed on the spot.
Ji Xiang put on his firearms equipment and left the ship with the little fox. At the same time, Ji Xiang looked at the young scholar who came off the other boat with a vague gaze.
The scholar just stared at Ji Xiang several times. How could he not feel this gaze?
But what made Ji Xiang interested in this scholar was that he actually had a very strong desire for him, and the ballad he just sang seemed to be a folk song.
It seems that he is another down-to-earth scholar. You must know that some nerds are deaf to what is going on outside the window. They only read the books of sages. When they open their mouths, they govern the country. When they shut up, they ignore the talents. They govern the country with the Six Classics. I do what I do. No matter how poor they are, they would rather sell calligraphy on the streets than write.
If a literati has a strong wish, it must be related to writing books, and what he writes must not be serious articles.
After all, where can I find a serious article that can be read by all people? In this era, there is no three-year college entrance examination and five-year simulation... Just imagine, if "Three Five" can really come to this world, I am afraid it will not be a battle with others. At that time, a set of college entrance examination composition reading comprehension could drive the opponent's soaring master into insanity...
After all, in "Three Fives", it's not just the wishes of all the people, but it's calculated in hundreds of millions... Isn't this more exciting than the Blue Sky Demon King's exam?
"I said what are you looking at?"
Ji Xiang shouted to the scholar in the distance.
Feng Menglong's eyes were still glaring, but in the blink of an eye, Ji Xiang suddenly disappeared from the distance and stood in front of him. He was so frightened that he let out a strange scream on the spot. He could barely hold the book in his hand, and suddenly His butt fell to the ground.
But then he looked surprised: "Hey! You are really a capable person. What kind of magic is this? You can actually be in front of me in an instant?"
Of course, when he looked at the firearms on Ji Xiang's body, he still swallowed hard.
Folks should be prohibited from owning firearms. Even if they do exist, they are some backward weapons, such as the tattered firecrackers from the early Ming Dynasty... But the person in front of me is carrying so many firearms, and some of them look quite new. This is either because of his astonishingly large background, or because of his surprisingly high abilities.
After all, if you are an official, it is different. It is very normal for Jin Yiwei to bring a firearm when traveling.
"Spells? It's just one step, do you still need to use spells?"
Ji Xiang patted Feng Menglong who stood up, and because the force was too strong, he slapped him to the ground again.
"Writing the Book of Ghosts and Gods?"
Feng Menglong touched his shoulders and then his butt, and there was pain everywhere. He yelled twice and responded: "It's a bit dabbling... Why are you so heavy-handed? I almost beat you to death."
Ji Xiang: "I'm here to help you loosen your muscles and activate your muscles."
"Are you leaving from here?"
Feng Menglong felt that Feng Menglong had a strong desire in him, so Ji Xiang intended to make friends with him. Feng Menglong told Ji Xiang that he had repeatedly failed in foreign examinations, so he was collecting folk songs, folk songs, riddles, folk stories and other folk literature on the north and south of the canal. .
"A scholar is easy to take the exam, but it's hard to succeed! Hey! There are many strange stories among the people, which arouse people's surprise... I'm not leaving. I just arrived here for one day. It's cheaper to stay on the boat than in the hotel. I'm looking for a place to stay. Stories about gods and ghosts, songs and riddles, etc..."
Ji Xiang was moved in his heart and told him that he was here to find out about some monsters and ghosts. If you, a scholar, know something, why not tell him and let's go together?
Feng Menglong also wanted to go collecting information. Knowing that Ji Xiang had the ability, he was naturally willing to follow him around, so he formally introduced himself:
"Xiaosheng, Feng Menglong."
As soon as the name came out, Ji Xiang was stunned. After a while, he muttered twice and asked, "Are you from Gusu?"
"Hey! Do you know all this? Have you ever heard of Xiaosheng? Could it be that Xiaosheng was often known when he was collecting ideas? So his reputation spread? This is really embarrassing to Xiaosheng!"
The little fox blinked: "Brother, where do you go to collect news?"
"Borthello."
Feng Menglong smiled slightly: "The women who painted boats in brothels in Gusu are all like smoke and water..."
The little fox's face suddenly turned red and smoky.
Feng Menglong laughed loudly and teased the little fox: "What is your name, kid?"
"Hu Xiaoshi!"
"Oh, my surname is Hu... She is really pretty. I will take you to a brothel in Gusu when I have time. The girls there are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I like a pretty girl like you..."
Ji Xiang coughed twice and said to the little fox:
"First go to the local Taoist priest and buy some talisman paper from them. The talisman paper you used for practice is almost finished, and the golden light spell can be considered to be somewhat powerful. Just keep copying like this. I think it will be very effective."
"Let them send someone to deliver the talismans here, and then we will go see if there are any White Lotus Sect or demons."
Ji Xiang made friends with Feng Menglong and said this to the little fox. The little fox had a sad face, holding a bunch of magic weapons, and followed Ji Xiang, not daring to refute the master's decision.
The incense in this place is very strong. When Ji Xiang arrived here, he became energetic. Many people holding incense sticks can be seen on the road. The gap between the rich and the poor in the market is too large. Beggars in ragged clothes can be seen everywhere. They are idle social idlers.
Ji Xiang asked for directions and came to the local "Tao Huisi".
The Daolu Department is the highest agency in charge of Taoists. It is subordinate to the Ministry of Rites and is responsible for issuing ultimatums to Taoist officials once every three years. It is in charge of Taoists all over the world. There are also various local government offices, namely the Daoist Department of each prefecture and the Daoist Department of each state. Chief Secretary and Daohui Secretary of each county.
