the next day,

early morning,

There was a hint of coolness in the air.

Xu Zhou put on the white-washed blue Taoist robe, came to the yard, stretched his waist, and let out a comfortable moan.

Then, Xu Zhou started washing and used willow branches and salt water. In this era when there were no toothpaste and toothbrushes, it was really unaccustomed to it...

As a time traveler, why not do it? Maybe you can become the richest man in the world?

The answer is very simple, Xu Zhou doesn't.

After washing up, Xu Zhou started cleaning the rice porridge early in the morning while cooking the rice porridge.

An hour later, Xu Zhou completed the sweeping work. At this time, the rice porridge had been cooked. Xu Zhou, who felt hungry, began to enjoy a delicious breakfast.

The so-called peaceful years meant that you can enjoy every simple breakfast safely.

After breakfast, Xu Zhou returned to the room, lifted the box containing Gatlin, thought about it, put it down, turned around, untied an AK-47 hanging on the wall, and carried it on his back.

Finally, Xu Zhou came to the tablet of Master Qingchen, lit three incense sticks, and looked at the rising white smoke, Xu Zhou whispered to the tablet: "Master, I will carry forward the Izumo Temple."

After worshiping Master, Xu Zhou went down the mountain.

After going down the mountain, there was a river. The river was built with a stone arch bridge. In front of the stone arch bridge, there was a wooden sign with eight words written on it - there is a ghost here! No access!

There is indeed a ghost in the river, it is a water ghost. Three years ago, Xu Zhou saw with his own eyes that the water ghost in the river dragged a strong man of 1.8 meters into the water, and there was no sound for a moment.

Later, the officials of the county government set up a sign here, and the people of Jiu'an County would take a detour when they saw the sign.

In fact, there are many such brands in Jiu'an County.

As for why the county government does not invite experts to subdue demons, it involves other aspects...

Dayan is really big. Although there are many immortal gates under the nine immortal gates and Buddhist temples are everywhere... But this is just an official statement. The real situation is that the nine immortal gates exist and there are many Buddhist temples. However, the 36 counties of Dayan are vast and there are many demons and ghosts. People who practice the Dharma are far from enough.

The manpower to subdue demons and eliminate demons can be said to be very nervous.

In addition, Nanyan County, which is affiliated to Jiu'an County, is the southernmost part of Dayan, near the sea, and the environment here is average and the spiritual energy is thin. Therefore, there is no Zhengtong Immortal Buddhist Temple in the entire Jiu'an County that chose to establish a sect here.

Izumo Temple is unorthodox, and can be seen from the old Taoist Qingchen who has no cultivation.

Therefore, once ghosts appear in Jiu'an County, the county government usually submits a report to the court, asking the court to appoint nine immortal gates to deal with it, or post a reward list to allow the passing mages to reveal the list to eliminate monsters.

As for why there are so many demons and ghosts in Jiu'an County, it is nothing more than these demons and ghosts becoming good, and the county government has shortage of funds...

The ghosts no longer harm the people in the county, and the county government will no longer allocate funds to deal with them.

Restless ghosts like female ghosts have caused great influence to the people one after another, so the county government will make up its mind to allocate funds to post the list.

This time, Xu Zhou went down the mountain to the county government office and persuaded Lord Lin to allocate funds to eliminate these demons and ghosts in the county. This is also a good way to promote Yunguan.

In this era, there is no reason why the Taoist temples that can subdue demons and eliminate demons will not be prosperous.

"Master Xu Xiaodao." As soon as Xu Zhou arrived at the county government gate, he saw Captain Zhou who had just walked out. Captain Zhou greeted Xu Zhou with a smile on his face.

"Captain Zhou, I have something to ask Lord Lin for trouble. Please inform me." Xu Zhou said.

"Okay, Master Xu Xiao." In this world full of demons, people will maintain a lofty respect for those who practice Dharma. Captain Zhou asked Xu Zhou to drink tea in a place similar to the living room, and he went to invite Magistrate Lin.

After a while, County Magistrate Lin, who had his hands wrapped around gauze, came to the opposite side of Xu Zhou, sat down, and said, "Master Xu Xiao, what's the matter with me coming here this time?"

Xu Zhou heard a trace of resentment from County Magistrate Lin's mouth, but when he saw County Magistrate Lin's hands wrapped in cloth, he immediately understood.

Xu Zhou smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, this time I came here to help County Magistrate Lin subdued demons and eliminate demons."

"Subduing demons and eliminating demons?" County Magistrate Lin was stunned and said, "But, there are no demons in this county?"

"Mr. Lin, as far as I know, there are at least twenty demons and ghosts in Jiu'an County..." Xu Zhou picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and then looked at the Magistrate Lin and said.

"What are you talking about..." County Magistrate Lin suddenly realized, then looked at Xu Zhou and said meaningfully: "It seems that Master Xu Xiao investigated Jiu'an County very clearly?"

"No, Lord Lin, you were wrong. I didn't investigate. The reason I know this is because I am from Jiu'an County." Xu Zhou shook his head and said.

"Is Taoist Master Xu from Jiu'an?" County Magistrate Lin showed a surprised look. He didn't know what kind of Taoist temples in Jiu'an County can cultivate an outstanding figure like Taoist Master Xu.

"The path has been practicing in the Izumo Temple on Izumo Mountain." Xu Zhou said.

"Izumo Temple? Is there such a Taoist temple in Jiu'an County?" County Magistrate Lin showed an expression of "I have been in Jiu'an County for so long, don't you want to lie to me."

"..." Xu Zhou was silent.

"Mr. Lin, do you want to be promoted?"

...

Half an hour later,

Xu Zhou walked out of the county government, followed by Captain Zhou, and there were two county government officials, one named Wang Hao and the other named Chen Bo.

Half an hour ago, Xu Zhou easily persuaded County Magistrate Lin, who wanted to be promoted, with the reason for his persuasion, "If Lord Lin cleared the demons in Jiu'an County, he would definitely think that Lord Lin was a rare talent and might be promoted." He also agreed to negotiate the reward for Xu Zhou's move.

It’s just like destroying the female ghost before, fifty taels of silver per order.

There are still twenty-one monsters and monsters entrenched in Jiu'an County. As long as they are all destroyed, Xu Zhou will have 1,000 taels of silver.

One thousand taels of silver is enough for him to renovate the Izumo Temple.

In an instant, Xu Zhou felt full of motivation.

"Master Xu Xiao, which monster should we destroy first?" Captain Zhou asked, following Xu Zhou.

In the process of Xu Zhou destroying these monsters and monsters, Captain Zhou followed Xu Zhou and met some reasonable small requirements for Xu Zhou not to involve money at any time.

Xu Zhou stopped, turned his head, looked at Captain Zhou seriously, and said, "Captain Zhou, please call me Taoist Master Xu."

"Okay, Master Xu." Captain Zhou nodded obediently, and then asked: "Which demon and ghost are we going to destroy first?"

At this moment, Xu Zhou gave up correcting Captain Zhou's wrong name and said, "Water Ghost!"

Xu Zhou did not take a detour this time, but walked up the river, followed by Captain Zhou, who was slightly nervous, and Wang Hao and Chen Bo.

Soon, the four of them arrived in front of the stone arch bridge.

As for why Xu Zhou was the first to choose the water ghost, it was because three years ago, this water ghost gave Xu Zhou a huge psychological shadow. This time, he came to break the psychological shadow.

Thinking of this,

Just a "slam" sound of water,

The water ghost appeared in front of the four people.
