"Cheng Dutong? The official demon slayer?"
Yang Lin smiled, bowed, and said with a smile, "I wonder what you are inviting me to do?"
He actually recognized this Cheng Dutong.
In fact, after he used the portraits to set up the Divine Law Network, he could basically monitor the general movements of the entire city with each node.
However, some people bought the portraits just for peace of mind and did not sincerely worship them. Those portraits have no power. Within the three cities, there will be places that cannot be monitored.
However, next to the Demon Slayer Division's stronghold, there happened to be two families who madly believed in the Number One God. Three sticks of incense in the morning, noon and evening were indispensable.
Therefore, Yang Lin could also clearly see the composition of the secret government of the other party, and probably understood the temperament and strength of Commander Cheng Changfeng.
Some time ago, I heard that caravans were repeatedly killed in Zhangshan. Before the troops from the county and city could take action, Cheng Changfeng had already led the team to kill the monsters. Unfortunately, he failed and also lost some men.
In general.
This guy actually has a good personality, but he's just a little reckless.
Yang Lin didn't know whether all the officials of the Demon Slaying Department in every state in the world had such a personality, or whether Cheng Changfeng was just a rare exception.
Anyway, he felt there was nothing wrong with having such a demon-slayer base within his own territory.
"Looking at the Taoist Master's journey, he must have gone down the mountain alone, looking for harmful humans and monsters to gain merit, right?"
Cheng Changfeng asked tentatively.
This world was originally in a good place, but since the invasion of demons and barbarians six years ago, many strange and strange things have happened overnight in every state and county in the world.
Of course, since that time, there have been disciples of Buddhism and Taoism traveling around, accumulating merit to assist in their practice.
In this regard, Buddhism has done more than Taoism. However, generally speaking, Buddhist disciples occupy some temples. Most of them are local tigers. Each temple is in charge of one side. They often go down the mountain to build a reputation, and some believers go up the mountain to worship Buddha.
It can be seen that these people take incense very seriously.
Also, money is also very important.
According to Cheng Changfeng's judgment, those monks may not really need money, but they have a very fine grasp of people's hearts and know that cheap goods are not good. The greater the price, the more reluctant they are to part with them and the closer they are to them.
This is actually the same as the interpersonal relationships among ordinary people.
The more you give to someone, the more reluctant you are to part with them, but you will keep giving.
The truth is very simple when you think about it. You have already paid so much. If you stop contacting me, your previous efforts will be in vain and you will suffer a big loss.
Then there is the matter of borrowing money. Most people always remember how much they lent to whom and wish they could remember it day and night.
Instead of remembering how much money you borrowed from others, after borrowing the money, you would like to be far away from the creditor, hoping that the other party will completely forget you.
Therefore, those temples collect money wantonly and require believers to worship, burn incense and worship Buddha frequently, which requires you to pay more.
Then, the habit becomes natural and you can never forget it again, so you become a fanatical believer.
If you want something, you will be motivated.
Therefore, in this era, monks are generally more friendly to the people and more enthusiastic about handling some strange events.
From the mortal world, to the mortal world, that's it.
And what about Taoist disciples?
They don't have many requirements for offering offerings and burning incense. They don't even have high requirements for food and clothing. Except for some wild Taoists and swindlers, real practitioners like to hide in the deep mountains and old forests to practice meditation. .
The environment is quiet and quiet, and you can take a shortcut without disturbing the world.
However, Taoist monks are not without their desires.
They are still very thirsty for merit, and they do not have such noble sentiments as serving the common people in the world.
Generally speaking, Taoist priests are still willing to lend a hand when they find the evil demon, even if it is for their own practice, to experience their soul and increase their cultivation.
This attitude also has shortcomings for the people of the world.
Generally speaking, Taoist priests who like to practice pure cultivation are not very enthusiastic about killing demons.
He does things very casually.
Just do it when you encounter it.
If you can't find it, you won't bother to search everywhere.
Quite a bit meaning of having no desires and no demands.
Therefore, when Cheng Changfeng saw the young Taoist priest who had just come down from the mountain to practice, and he was also an extremely capable Taoist priest, his heart became brighter.
"If the Taoist master wants to accumulate merit, not only eating and sleeping all the way, but also trying to find out where evil spirits harm people and where ghosts are causing trouble, he will definitely spend a lot of energy.
I believe that Taoist masters are very powerful, but demons are cunning and treacherous. They usually hide well and deceive the people...
From what I heard, there will even be many mistakes and omissions. If you rely on yourself to kill monsters alone, you will get half the result with twice the effort, which is very difficult. "
"Oh, Mr. Cheng, do you have any suggestions?"
It turned out that he was here to attract people.
Yang Lin understood.
It would be strange if this guy didn't come to pull people away.
I don't know what's going on in Jiangzhou. In recent times, some demons of level 4 or above or level 5 have appeared from time to time.
Cheng Changfeng, the demon-slaying leader, has the strength of the early stage of the fourth level. Logically speaking, he can suppress one party in other states and counties. However, in these three counties, he can only fight a dozen soy sauce.
In the past three years, his Demon Slaying Division branch has not only failed to expand its power, but has been living like a rat in the ditch, very miserable.
Presumably, he would rate him as inferior every year during the merit examination.
Since Taoist priests are so powerful, it is inevitable to recruit people into their gangs.
If the other party is stationed in Jiangzhou, that would be great. Whatever contribution he makes, he should have his own share of the profits.
Just like this fifth-level demon wolf, he could send a report and say that it was destroyed by the Demon Slayer Division.
Even if a Taoist priest wants to travel around the world, he can still recommend talents in the name of the Jiangzhou Demon Slaying Division branch, which will be regarded as a moderate achievement.
Besides, the Demon Slayer Division under the Imperial Preceptor has a very complicated staff composition, with the most martial artists and quite a few Taoist priests. There is no problem at all in bringing in a Taoist priest.
"Our Demon Slayer Division's intelligence network covers the world, and we have strongholds everywhere. If the Taoist Master joins us, he will not only have a generous salary, but also have no shortage of skills, pills, and magic weapons. He will also be able to receive assistance and investigation from the Demon Slayer envoys from all over the world. Wouldn't it be wrong? It saves a lot of effort.”
Cheng Changfeng said with a sharp tongue, "Also, compared to the Taoist priest who is alone in his family and alone in slaying demons, there are many benefits. It is easier to spread the reputation in the name of the Demon Slayer Division.
For example, the reputation of the national masters Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng is now widely spread among the people. According to rumors, he has completed his merits and reached the final step, and can ascend to the upper world at any time and rank among the immortals. It’s just that I’m thinking of all the people in the world and don’t want to leave.
If the Taoist master's reputation spreads far and wide, it will be very difficult for him to attain Taoism and become an immortal one day. "
Yang Lin's eyes moved, and he seemed to be hesitating in his heart: "I am accustomed to idleness, lazy temper, and impatient to be restrained in various ways.
It's good to be the Demon Slayer Division, but it's a bit unsightly to be restrained by an official body and follow orders. "
"It's easy. It's not like there are no outsiders joining our Demon Slaying Department, and some people don't like the excitement. Therefore, one of the positions is specially prepared for Taoist priests and other pure cultivators."
