Chapter 26 The mundane turmoil

"Captain Chen, there is nothing wrong with my eyes? The man just slashed the huge rock with his sword?"

The county magistrate of An County led his team to arrive at the hillside of Taohua Mountain and saw the scene where Yu Changsheng split the huge rock from afar.

It was not until Yu Changsheng left everyone's sight that the old county magistrate with a big belly rubbed the sweat on his forehead and muttered in shock.

"Mr. County Master, you read it right. According to the observation of Beizhi, the Taoist who just now cut the stone was not a trick, but a real immortal technique."

The sword energy is several feet long, and the stone is split into an instant, just like cutting melons and tofu.

The great power of this immortal made Captain Chen and other yamen runners feel jealous and frightened.

"This, this, then should we still talk to the immortals? This is an immortal, Captain Chen, I have lived for decades. I am not afraid of offending the immortals myself, but as a local parent, I want to consider it for the people of our county!"

Captain Chen was stunned. Looking at the county magistrate in front of him, he felt very disdainful. Are you still afraid? Are you trembling?

As the saying goes, there are gods who are three feet tall, but if you do too much trouble, you will be even more afraid of discovering that there are really immortals in the world.

Captain Chen pondered for a moment: "Since the Taoist said that this is the temple of the Immortal Lord, then, in fact, you can report to the prefecture truthfully with this. The Taoist said that the Immortal Lord entered the world to save the world. From this point of view, as long as you report it, it is already a great achievement."

"So, from the perspective of Beizhi, we don't have to talk to this immortal king. We just need to pay attention to the movements of the fairyland on the mountain at all times, so as to report at any time!"

The county magistrate was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Yes, right, that's how it should be. How can an immortal exist? But I, a mortal, and even a small county magistrate like me, can be approached at will."

"Send the order to expel all refugees and issue a notice that no one is allowed to offend the Immortal Lord's Temple. If any offender is offended, all the sentences will be punished!"

After the county magistrate gave such a command, the yamen runners were relieved and took the order.

Then, these yamen runners quickly drove the refugees down the mountain, and some of them also seized some rice and plastic bags of rice packaging from the refugees.

The plastic bags that pack rice are white and are very rough. There are only two simplified Chinese characters printed on the packaging: "Yunhu".

Yunhu rice, 1.98 yuan per kilogram.

It is one of the cheapest rice sold in major supermarkets across the country in Qianguo.

But these cheap rice from later generations are not very good at quality, but they are not comparable to rice and grain in this world today.

The rice is full, and it is even less likely that any chaff left after the shell is removed.

"It's really incredible that this white rice can be so full and big? Perhaps only the fairy world can grow such an immortal thing?"

"No! Hurry up, let everyone go and call out to the refugees, and the county government is willing to exchange them for fairy rice with three times the essence in the treasury."

This county magistrate is not too bad.

Instead of asking the yamen runners to force the rice, he thought about getting the rice in exchange.

The county magistrate's idea was very simple, that was, collect these fairy rice and quickly send it to the prefecture, and then use the prefecture to send it to the capital of Qianguo.

Of course, this county magistrate also has his own little one.

That is to intercept a small part of it and eat it by yourself, and then send most of it to Beijing.

This is an immortal thing, and I can't say that eating one bite can prolong my life.

The greed of human nature can be seen from this.

So regardless of whether these refugees are willing or not, the yamen runners in An County immediately collected the distributed fairy rice with the most powerful means after receiving the order.

After a long time.

"Sir, I have collected almost all the fairy rice, and I have about fifteen dou of fairy rice. Some refugees are snatching up and eating some of them, so..."

"Forget it, it's good to collect so many. This is a gift from the immortals. We should not overdo it. All the exchange items that should be given to refugees later should be sent to them!"

"yes!"

The county magistrate is now full of excitement. Although it is covered up on the surface, he is actually as if he is about to become an official.

"By the way, Zhang San, I heard from Captain Chen, do you know the young Taoist who appeared from the fairyland before?"

The yamen runner Zhang San nodded: "It's considered to be acquaintance, because you also know that the villain's father-in-law's family runs a pharmacy in the county."

"And that young Taoist had been following an old Taoist to my father-in-law's pharmacy to buy medicine a few years ago. So, I have seen the young ones several times."

"Buy medicine?" The county magistrate was a little confused.

"That is, the Taoist man was named Yu Changsheng. Because he suffered from tuberculosis, he had been taking life-threatening medicine. However, a year ago, after the old Taoist died, he rarely came to the county."

"So, in the eyes of the villain, this little Taoist priest obviously happened to meet the so-called immortal king he called and then benefited from it. However, this is just a guess from the villain, so please give me some insights."

When the county magistrate heard this, he suddenly realized something more clearly.

"It's a good luck! You can chop stones with one sword. Perhaps this ability can only be achieved by being favored by immortals, right? It's so envious."

"But no matter how he gets favored by the immortals, all this has to do with Taoism. If he was not a Taoist priest, then the immortal king might not have accepted him."

"So, don't think too much, let's just do it for now. I have to wait until the governor decides before making plans."

"Sir, wise!"

"Well, okay, go down, don't talk nonsense about that Taoist, keep your mouth in mind."

"Yes, villains can save you!"

“……”

On Peach Blossom Mountain.

After Yu Changsheng dealt with the refugees, he came to the peach tree to tell An Ning about the process.

An Ning nodded, and then asked Yu Changsheng to continue practicing.

During this period, An Ning said to Yu Changsheng: What is an immortal? First of all, you need to adjust your mentality and witness the troubles and changes in the world, and not be happy with things or sad with yourself.

A kind heart and a heart to save the world can have, or even choose your own way, but the premise is that you must see clearly whether you have this ability.

Tao is peace and also contains the principle of saving the world.

But if you use the excuse of saving the world to participate in the fight and killing impulsively for the sake of unevenness, it is not an immortal, nor a Tao, but a demon.

Furthermore, the concept promoted by Taoism itself is that Tao follows nature, governs without doing anything and lives in harmony with nature.

Therefore, An Ning's set is still very effective for Yu Changsheng.

Now, it has been six months since the peach tree became the Peach Fairy Tree.

Many small peach fruits on the peach tree are already the size of a thumb, and you only need to wait for another three months to fully ripen.

There is a way to make peace for these fruits.
