Chapter 54 Can’t Save the World
With a great background, does it mean that you are capable of subjugating demons?
Not everyone is willing to trust Tu Fu, not even those from the Demon Suppression Division.
But in the final analysis, it’s still a matter of price.
One hundred taels is not too much, and twenty taels is not too little. Whether the homeowners who bid are asking for peace of mind or a bargain and benefit, they have to ask themselves.
Regardless of the price, they all accepted the Tufu, which made the detectives who contacted this matter a little suspicious - these two are really the general banner of the Demon Suppression Division and the true disciples of the Great Buddha Temple? Don't be just charlatans, right?
.
Fortunately, there was evidence such as a seal. The hundred households who brought them to massacre them also knew the county magistrate here and had met him before, so the police had no choice but to believe it.
"If I do this, will it disturb the market price?"
Tu Fu asked about the general flag. In this regard, he really had to be more cautious.
Zongqi was a little surprised when he was asked, do monks who seek merit really care about this? Master Wu Kong is indeed different from the monks of other great Buddhist temples.
Master, master, Zen master, and holy monk are all honorific titles for monks, but there are still some differences between them. To be honest, when Zongqi calls Faren, he should use master instead of Zen master, and when he calls Mingxin, he should use
A Zen master, not a holy monk.
However, no one would blame me for being more respectful in front of Tu Fu.
"No need to worry, there is no market price for this kind of place and this kind of thing. Only the state capitals of each state, and the kind where there are high-class families and sects, can have the so-called market price. In the city of God
, this is definitely not possible.
However, Master Wukong, you are from the Great Buddha Temple. Even if you don’t want money, who dares to say anything? In your Great Buddha Temple, as long as you say, “I am destined to be a Buddha,” then you will have to pay if you don’t want it.
If you want money, you don’t need money.”
Is that so?
Tu Fu didn't take Zong Qi's ridicule seriously, which made Zong Qi feel more comfortable.
"Then I'm sorry to bother you, sir. Let's talk it over for you. I'll deduct it and give it to the detective and related people. Let's give it thirty-seven points."
Zong Qi was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "You mean, you are three and I am seven?"
"Not bad."
"You can't do it, you can't do it."
The general flag immediately resisted, but Tu Fu persisted.
Seriously speaking, doing this kind of thing is actually risky. No one knows whether a seemingly ordinary haunted house is hiding an old ghost, an evil ghost, or a fierce ghost.
Compared with the speed of human cultivation, some ghosts are much faster, and it is very unreasonable. An ordinary person may not be able to compete with a new evil ghost or fierce ghost with deep grievances after accumulating energy for hundreds of years.
According to rumors in the world, there are many ghosts who caused the celestial changes of June Feixue when they were born. If martial arts practitioners want to induce changes in the celestial phenomena, in addition to using some magic weapons and weapons, they must at least reach the level of a master.<
/p>
If there is no risk in exorcising evil spirits from a haunted house, or the risk can be easily avoided, then even if the world is unstable and ghosts and monsters are everywhere, there will not be many haunted houses or places.
Since there is a risk, it needs the protection of the general banner of the Kaiqiao Realm. Tu Fu will not easily put himself in danger.
"Fifty-five, if you don't agree, then I can't help you with this matter."
In the end, at the insistence of the general banner, the 50-50 split was decided upon.
During the day, you don't actually need to worry about ghosts doing evil. Even if it's snowing, as long as the sun penetrates the clouds and falls on the world, most ghosts will hide. Although there are ghosts that can 'bask in the sun', but for houses
For the six people called by the Lord, that was something beyond their comprehension.
Therefore, the departure of Tu Fu and Zong Qi did not make them panic. Instead, they breathed a sigh of relief - ordinary people would not want to have the Zong Qi of the Demon Suppression Division dangling in front of them.
When the sky wasn't getting dark, they wouldn't even want Tu Fu and Zong Qi to come back. Even if it was dark, these six people weren't very afraid.
This is Hezhou after all, and being a true disciple of Tufu Great Buddha Temple is much easier to use than being a demon-suppressing commander. Tufu said that he had liberated the ghosts in this haunted house and spent the night here, so they dared to believe it
.
"The further south you go, the smaller the snow disaster becomes. The snow here is much lighter than in Xiniu County. If you go about five hundred miles further south, it won't be considered a snow disaster."
The general flag introduced them on the road.
Xiang'er County where they are located is to the south of Xiniu County. Although the snow disaster was smaller than that of Xiniu County, the livelihood of the people was much worse than that of Xiniu County.
It's freezing cold, but there are a lot of people on the street, but it gives people a deserted feeling because most of the shops are closed.
According to Tu Fu's senses, most of the people wandering the streets at this time do not look like living people, but more like walking corpses.
The snowstorm has affected their original livelihood, and the soaring prices have forced them to find a new livelihood as soon as possible while cutting back on food and clothing, but how can it be that easy?
When they saw the monk Tu Fu, there was obvious expectation in these people's eyes, but because there was only one monk, Tu Fu, and the general banner of the Demon Suppression Division beside Tu Fu, they lost hope and could not do anything.
Don't dare to get close.
"It's been okay these past few months," the general flag continued: "The winter before last was also a good year for snow, so last year's harvest was pretty good, and most families had grain in storage. But this year's farming seems to be impossible, and we won't be able to wait until the summer harvest.
It was so miserable..."
Hezhou grows rice twice a year. Early rice is usually sown around Qingming Festival. Although it is the beginning of spring and there are still some days before Qingming Festival, the impact of the snowstorm will last for a long time.
Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the grain stored in the homes of wealthy households. The grain stored in the homes of ordinary people is often only enough to last until the next harvest. And when the harvest is not good, even after paying taxes, there is not enough for themselves, and the price of grain is bound to skyrocket. How can we do this?
Can you survive?
The poorer families cannot survive the summer harvest, so they are more than just "miserable".
"Although there will be a lot of credit when the time comes, it will all be hard work with no choice." Zong Qi said, paused, looked at Tu Fu and said: "Master Wu Kong, it would be better for you to stay in the temple when the time comes.
, I can’t stand those things.”
A lot of credit? Hard work haha? Can’t see it?
Tu Fu paused for a moment, and the people and things that Zong Qi mentioned appeared in his mind.
Those are miserable!
But what can he do? The great Buddhist temple with hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land and 100,000 monks cannot save a single disaster in Hezhou. Who can save the entire land of Zhongzhou?
Imperial court?
Thinking about the rumored secret instructions given by Emperor Sheng, thinking about the police officers who went to his medical clinic to buy abortion pills, and thinking about the foreign horse bandits who easily entered the customs...
"It should be that this year's taxes and corvee will be exempted, and there will be food relief, right?"
Hearing Tu Fu's question, Zongqi sighed helplessly: "If it was fifteen years ago, it would have been Master Wu Kong who said this, but now... well, let's not talk about it anymore."
p>
The policeman promptly said: "We've arrived at the place, this is it."
Tu Fu immediately dismissed his distracting thoughts. He could not save the world, but he could get rid of the evil spirits in a place. He could do as much as he could.
As his inner energy circulates, his eyes become what people often call yin and yang eyes.
Chapter completed!
