There is no time in the mountains. When I am immersed in doing one thing, the time always passes quickly, and half a year has passed before I know it.
In the past six months, Mo He has changed a lot. It may be because he has reached the growth period. His height has grown rapidly in the past six months, and he is already about 1.6 meters. Fortunately, the clothes he wore on the mountain were relatively small. Loose, but now it seems to fit better.
And after half a year of Mo He's hard training, coupled with the help of the innate immortal light in the sea of consciousness, Mo He's cultivation has entered the middle stage of entering the Tao, and the spiritual power in his body has almost increased several times. There are also many more ways.
In the early morning of this day, Mo He got up early to practice as usual, and before he finished his morning practice, he heard the door of Daoist Qingmei's room suddenly open.
"A guest has arrived, apprentice, go and prepare some melon and fruit tea, and prepare to entertain them later!" Daoist Qingmei walked out of the room and gave instructions to Mo He who was practicing.
"Disciple understands!" Mo He nodded, put his hands together into sword fingers, and slashed in front of his own eyes. Using the spiritual eye technique, he cast his eyes down the mountain, and saw several people at the foot of Wangyue Mountain. Getting ready to go up the mountain.
After seeing the faces of several people clearly, Mo He found that they were still acquaintances.
"The county lord, chief official, and Wu Bei of Zi'an County are all here. It seems that there is something difficult to do!" Mo He had such a thought in his mind.
The few people who were going up the mountain were the county lord of Zi'an County, the chief officials An Shoucheng and Wu Bei Wanguishan. The three of them came together, and they definitely didn't come to talk to Taoist Qingmei to talk about the old days. Encountered a difficult matter, and came to seek help from Daoist Qingmei.
Shaking his head, Mo He turned around and entered the kitchen, quickly took out a few melons and fruits, cleaned them, put them on a fruit plate, and then took out a few empty teacups, put tea leaves in them, and then, Mo He ran With the spiritual power in his body, he pinched a formula in his hand and shouted softly.
"Get together!"
Following the sound of Mohe, streams of water mist condensed in the surrounding air, quickly forming a water mass, and then separated into several streams of water, which fell into several empty teacups.
When the teacups were filled up, Mo He circulated the spiritual power in his body again to cover the teacups, and in a burst of blue light, the water in the teacups quickly burst out. The wisps of hot air, at the same time belonging to the fragrance of tea, also drifted around along with the hot air.
Within a few breaths, Mo He regained his spiritual power, and the several cups of tea on the table also emitted scalding heat, accompanied by a rich aroma.
"Daoist Qingmei, I will come here early in the morning to make trouble, and I hope the Taoist priest will not take offense!"
"The county lord is very polite, a few distinguished guests are here, the humble house is full of splendor!"
Turning his head, Mo He heard the conversation coming from outside the door, and then smiled lightly, "The time is just right!"
Mo He served the tea, melons and fruits and sent them to the room where several people were talking. The moment the door was opened, all the people present looked at Mo He.
"Master, my lords, please have some tea!" Seeing everyone's gazes, Mo He calmly put the tea and fruits on the table, and then turned around to go out.
But before he reached the door, he heard the county honoring himself.
"The disciple of the Taoist priest, after the careful training of the Taoist priest, is now more and more intelligent and beautiful. He has already become a bit of a gentleman, and he is polite in advance and retreat. With such a disciple, the Taoist priest is really enviable."
Hearing that the county lord was praising him, it was hard for Mo He to go out now, so he could only turn around and perform the etiquette of a junior, which could be regarded as a thank you for the county lord's compliment.
"Haha, the county lord has praised Mo He." Daoist Qingmei also laughed when he heard the county lord praised Mo He. Hearing others praise his proud disciple seemed to make him feel happier than praising himself.
After chatting with each other for a few gossips, the topic slowly turned to the main topic. At this time, Mo He didn't leave, and seeing that several people didn't intend to let him go out, he simply stayed here and listened. What is the purpose of man
"Master Daoist, I heard that half a year ago, two Taoist officials from other places wanted to settle down here. They came to your Qingmei Temple to find something, but you dismissed them." The county lord opened his mouth, ready to gradually bring the topic to the main topic.
"It's true. If it wasn't for those two people who did it directly, I wouldn't have too much conflict with them. After all, I am not intolerant!" Daoist Qingmei nodded, with a slow expression on his face. Slowly getting serious.
"The Daoist Priest is already benevolent for such provocative disciples. As the deadline is approaching, all kinds of monsters and snake gods will jump out. Such people must not be tolerated." Wan Guishan interrupted at this moment.
"That's right, Your Majesty's deadline is approaching, and these caring people can't help but jump out one after another." An Shoucheng also immediately answered.
"Oh, but in this Zi'an County, is there anyone who jumped out?" Taoist Priest Qingmei asked.
He is also a little surprised now. This Zi'an county is also located in a remote place. When the dynasty was changed, the former power here should have been uprooted. Come out, after all, the founding emperor is still in power now, and the early bird who jumps out will definitely not end well.
"It is true that one jumped out unwilling to be lonely, but he is smarter, so he didn't appear directly. If I didn't find some clues, I haven't noticed him yet." Wan Guishan continued to nod his head and said.
"Do you know who it is?" Daoist Qingmei asked seriously.
"According to the information we have, this person should not be a human being, but may be a deity granted by the previous dynasty." An Shoucheng took over the conversation and said.
"I read the county annals of Zi'an County over the years. In the previous dynasty, there were five deities in Zi'an County who were conferred as gods. Three of them have already fallen. The incense temples are no longer there, and there is no god realm in the underworld, so it cannot be them. "
"As for the remaining two, one is An Minbo of Zi'an County. He was the magistrate of Zi'an County before he was alive. He led the people to open up wasteland and plow fields, build bridges and pave roads. He made outstanding achievements. Worship, seal the seventh-rank god position."
"The other one is the water god of Qingxi. According to records, he was a former military equipment in Zi'an County. Because he went into the water to eliminate demons, he died in battle with the monsters. After his death, he was named the eighth-rank Qingxi water god."
Mo He stood there listening, and was slightly surprised when he heard An Shoucheng mention Qingxi Water God.
The so-called Qingxi is the small river next to Xiahegou Village, Mohe's hometown. It is a tributary of the Yuhe River again. I have never heard that this small river has a water god.
"Sure enough, the water in this world is far better than I imagined. My current level is too low, and I haven't touched many things yet."
Regardless of what Mo He was thinking now, the county lord here spoke again.
"I came to the Taoist priest today for this matter. After all, this matter concerns the interests of all of us."
Daoist Qingmei pondered for a moment when he heard the words, and then said: "What is the imperial dynasty's attitude towards these gods left over from the previous dynasty?"
"Looping is the most important thing. For those who are really stubborn, you can do it cheaply!" The county lord replied without the slightest hesitation.
Although these conferred gods were all canonized by the previous dynasty, the achievements they have made cannot be erased so simply. Therefore, the attitude of the dynasty towards these gods is still as much as possible.
As for Daoist Qingmei and the county priest, and even other people like them, this is actually not good news. After all, although a county town is not small in terms of size, it is not too big in terms of size. How many gods can it support?
If these gods from the previous dynasty come here, they will definitely be recognized by the dynasty, and even get a new title, which is tantamount to damaging their interests.
However, it would be troublesome to get rid of these gods. It would be a bit troublesome to add a god at will, not to mention whether it has this ability.
On the one hand, it may damage one's luck, on the other hand, most of the gods are united, and if one of them is injured, a more powerful god may jump out and tell you what it means to be as powerful as a prison.
"Since we have found the other party, why not find out the other party's identity first, and then investigate the other party's attitude, and then we can make a decision. If the other party is friendly to the dynasty, we might as well report it, maybe it is not a bad thing , and if the other party still wants to go forward, then...!" Daoist Qingmei expressed his attitude, and at the end of the sentence, he didn't make it clear, but everyone understood the meaning.
The magistrate nodded, "My meaning is similar to that of the Taoist priest. Let's find out the identity of the other party first, and we will contact him when the time comes. This may require the Taoist priest to be troubled."
Having said that, Mo He understood that he came here early in the morning to let Daoist Qingmei contact the other party first, but this job can only be done by Daoist Qingmei.
First of all, Daoist Qingmei's cultivation is in the realm of spirit and soul, and he will have the power to protect himself when contacting the other party. In addition, Daoist Qingmei's identity is also suitable, and the Taoist official is also responsible for handling these things.
"So, of course it is incumbent." Qingmei Taoist priest nodded and agreed upon hearing this.
Afterwards, several people finalized some details, deliberated on the identity of the other party, finished the business, and chatted some gossip, the county lord and the others then left.
Seeing the backs of several people going down the mountain, Mo He went back to pack up his things, and then continued his unfinished morning practice project.
Although the conversation between the county lord and others and Taoist Qingmei interested him very much, Mo He knew that no matter what happened, his own strength was always the most reliable.
