Chapter 179: Dividing the Treasures

~13 min read 2,548 words

"……

"That's how it was……"

Lin Jue recounted the matter roughly.

"This mediocre official and stupid deity! We kindly came to remind him, and he didn't care at all, and even made things difficult for you! Extremely hateful!"

How could the third senior brother listen to this?

Immediately, his brows furrowed tightly, and he was furious:

"Follow me to find him!"

"Third Shixiong brother, no need to be impulsive." Lin Jue said, "That City Yili Shenjun is afraid he won't live long."

"Did you complain to that Husheng Husheng Zhenjun?"

"No."

"Then that's it!"

"Isn't it easy to deal with him?" The second senior brother said, "With the fifth junior brother's reputation here now and in the future, just tell the commoners truthfully what the City Yili Shenjun has done, and the commoners will naturally tear down his temple."

"That's not satisfying!"

"I also want to be as satisfying as senior brother." Lin Jue said, "But that is a deity after all……"

"Junior brother, this principle is not right!" The third senior brother was rarely serious, "The statue of a deity is set up by people. If people set up a deity statue, they must have the duty and awareness to tear it down. They can't just know how to set it up and not know how to tear it down! Moreover, this dog official has bullied you. If he had the ability like that Husheng Husheng Zhenjun, it would be fine if we couldn't beat him. Since we can beat him, if we tolerate it, wouldn't it be a pity for this good ability?"

"I mean, go when we leave." Lin Jue said.

The second senior brother sat on the side, and after listening, he also nodded: "Junior brother's words are reasonable. At least see if the heavenly immortals will dismiss him for investigation. If the immortals dismiss him for investigation, it is naturally inconvenient for us Daoists of the Lingfa Sect to overstep our authority. If the immortals don't care, it's also a good way to avenge this grudge when we leave and then leave."

Saying this, he paused:

"There is also some spirit of the rivers and lakes."

The third senior brother looked at them and quickly calmed down: "Sure enough, you are smarter."

The crowd then looked at the pile of artifacts again.

"This is the reward given to us by the Master Fuchi Yili Shenjun for our merit! Thanks to the junior senior brother's words, we got three more!" The junior sister said this at this moment, still feeling admiration, and also feeling distressed—

Why did she also have a head, but couldn't say such words at the critical moment?

"Let's see……"

The crowd groped again.

These were the spoils of the divine soldiers and heavenly generals under the Master Fuchi Yili Shenjun, without any explanation. It took the crowd a lot of time to barely figure out their uses.

That big sword looked heavy and sharp, but if you slashed with all your strength, the speed was enough, and the tendon potential was right, you could slash out sword energy.

That bell needed to be shaken with magic power, which could make people feel dizzy and confused.

The porcelain bottle had a similar effect to the mother-of-pearl box, even if treasures like pill fruits were placed in it, it could preserve the spirituality.

The long robe was recognized by the knowledgeable second senior brother, called fire-washed clothes. It didn't need to be washed with water when dirty, and it could be restored to cleanliness by burning it in fire. At the same time, wearing it wouldn't be burned by fire. It wasn't just ordinary fire, even the spiritual fire close to the true fire released by the second senior brother couldn't burn through it.

Plus the bamboo tube that blew fire at one end and fog at the other, the wooden staff that could fix people, and the lamp that could watch the night for people and explode if someone else came, there were seven items in total.

The sixth senior brother was too far away, and he didn't have anything to do with the Plague Ghost matter. Lin Jue actually wanted to ask for one for the sixth senior brother. After all, that Master Fuchi Yili Shenjun didn't care about these small gadgets. It was just that he was worried about whether these True Lords had the ability like a few ghosts and gods to see through whether people were lying or whether they were guilty, fearing that he would see through his thoughts and feel that he was greedy and deceived the gods, thus getting angry, so he just told the truth. It was considered a steady hand, and it was considered a clear conscience.

"Let's divide them."

"The junior brother and junior sister are the youngest, let them choose first!"

"The senior brother ran to deliver the message first, which was the hardest, and it was also the senior brother's words that got three more." The junior sister also learned the tone of the senior brothers to be humble, "Let the senior brother choose first!"

"What's there to be humble about……"

Lin Jue smiled, but he was too lazy to decline again.

His heart fell into deep thought.

These items looked like small objects, but most of them were quite useful. Moreover, in this day and age, magic tools themselves were rare. If one could get one, it could almost be passed down.

From his perspective, if he walked in the rivers and lakes to deal with danger, the big sword, the soul-bewitching bell, and the body-fixing staff were all treasures.

However, the great sword was too large, and he simply could not use it smoothly. He also carried sword pellets with him and had learned spells like tempered Qi, but he was unable to refine them into sword Qi.

Choosing this big sword was unnecessary.

The bell was small and light, but his Fuyao had learned the yellow energy spitting method commonly used by demons after eliminating the goat demon under Shimen Mountain, which could also bewitch people's minds.

It was also repeated.

The body-fixing staff was the best and most mysterious.

But thinking carefully, I'm afraid the fifth senior brother or seventh senior brother who was not good at fighting was more suitable for it, and at this moment, his ancient book might already have this spell.

The fire-fog bamboo tube was also the same.

The porcelain bottle was even more unnecessary. Although he had the need to store treasures, the mother-of-pearl box had more space than this porcelain bottle.

Thinking left and right, Lin Jue chose the lamp.

This lamp could watch the night for him.

Although Fuyao was also very vigilant at night, it would eventually sleep. And if one day it was also tired, just like the night it sent the letter back, with this lamp, they could all have a good sleep.

Plus, no one was completely negligent. With this lamp, it could complement it. Whether sleeping in the wild or borrowing from other places, it would be more at ease.

If he wanted to read or write letters at night, he wouldn't need other lamps.

"I choose this."

Lin Jue said to them.

"I choose the bell."

The junior sister chose the brass bell. This bell was about the same size as the bell she bought in Yi County to hang on the donkey's neck.

Then it was the second senior brother. It wasn't that he wanted to grab it first, it was that he knew that only he wanted the porcelain bottle and it was only useful to him, so he took it first.

The fifth senior brother chose the body-fixing staff.

The seventh senior brother chose the fire-fog tube.

Both were quite suitable for them.

The third senior brother had to take the big sword.

The remaining fire-washed clothes were sent to the fourth senior brother, but he probably wouldn't be able to use them.

The division of treasures was considered finished.

Several people stayed in Cuiwei County for a long time, mainly because the fifth senior brother was still constantly improving the prescription, and the snake plague hadn't been eliminated immediately, so they all stayed here.

It was to insure the fifth senior brother, and also to accompany him more.

From the turn of spring and summer to the end of summer.

All the commoners in Cuiwei County already knew that there was a group of Daoists here, among whom was a divine doctor, like a medical immortal descended to the world, who only used a few days to come up with a prescription and cure the plague here.

The city-guarding deity, Plague Ghost, Daoist, and the disease of vomiting snakes already had a fantasy color. As things spread wider and wider, commoners embellished them more or less. After spreading, listening to them was not much different from those ancient immortal stories that Lin Jue heard when the village elders told them when he was in Shu Village.

The local county magistrate really planned to build a Daoist temple for the fifth senior brother in the city, the address had been chosen, and he invited him to cultivate in the city.

The commoners also wanted to keep him no matter what.

The fifth senior brother couldn't refuse, but he didn't agree either.

He specialized in medicine on the mountain. After going down the mountain, he was originally going to practice medicine everywhere. Even after arriving at the temple in Liuyun County, it was just a stronghold. Most of the time, he wouldn't stay in the temple, but would walk everywhere with his medical box, practicing medicine and curing diseases for the commoners, looking for difficult and miscellaneous diseases, and walking into places with great plague.

Now there were just two strongholds.

Maybe there would be more in the future.

Cultivating the Dao, the abilities were diverse. It wasn't fighting that made people respect. For example, the reputation and merit accumulated by the fifth senior brother here, maybe many Daoists wouldn't be able to catch up even if they became immortals.

It was just that as the plague gradually disappeared, several people had to part ways again.

The Daoists who had been strapped for cash for a long time finally had a big splurge, found a restaurant in the city, ordered a few good local dishes, fish with noodles, fish head and tail, peony swallow dishes, filled a table, and asked for a pot of good local wine, which was considered to comfort themselves during this period.

"Cuiwei borders Liuyun, and both places had a plague. Although the plague has stopped at this time, the commoners might have left some sequelae. I have to walk around to see, so the senior and junior brothers don't have to send me to Liuyun County."

"Okay, okay, anyway, I've been with you here for so long, it's almost enough."

The third senior brother poured a glass of wine for everyone, and then sighed: "I met such a thing as soon as I came here. Old Five will be firmly rooted here in the future, but it will be hard work."

"Third Shixiong brother traveling everywhere to practice medicine will suffer a lot." Lin Jue also sighed.

"Can't say that either. Just like this wine, some people think the wine is bitter, some people think the wine is sweet." The fifth senior brother said, "My hometown also had a plague when I was young. My parents both died of the plague, and I also had a serious illness. The uncles in the family exhausted the family wealth and couldn't cure it. Finally, it was a barefoot doctor who traveled the world who cured me. After that, the people in the village said that he was an immortal."

When the fifth senior brother said this, his eyes were smiling, and he had some longing: "I practice medicine, and this is the path I take."

"Don't say anything else, just drink the cup in your hand!"

"Haha……"

Several Daoists raised their glasses to drink.

Unknowingly, the food on the table was almost finished, and two jars of this rice wine with little strength had been drunk.

The third senior brother stood up, crisp and neat:

"Waiter, settle the bill."

The waiter of the restaurant walked over immediately, respectfully and almost didn't dare to look at them:

"Several True Men are immortals. Since ancient times, only people offer sacrifices to immortals, how can anyone collect money from immortals? Moreover, the immortals have great kindness and great virtue to our Cuiwei commoners!"

"How are we immortals? How can we not pay?"

"No, no! It's good that the True Men eat well. If you are happy, you can come to eat every day! It's our blessing! Maybe it can make our restaurant business better!" The waiter was panicked, "But if I collect the True Men's money, not to mention being spurned, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death by the neighbors."

"If you don't say it, won't it be fine?"

"No, no!"

The waiter opened his eyes wide, waving his hands and retreating.

The remaining few Daoists looked at each other and felt it was funny.

They actually had a day when they didn't have to pay for eating somewhere.

"If……"

The waiter secretly aimed at them, and then opened his mouth to say: "If the True Men feel sorry, just write a few words like the people in the books told by the storyteller? The shopkeeper will be happy if he knows."

Several Daoists looked at each other again.

In fact, not many of them wrote well. The fourth senior brother's writing was good, and he liked to play with the four treasures of the study on the mountain, but the fourth senior brother was not here.

The senior and junior brothers calculated together, pushed each other several times, and finally Lin Jue dictated, and the fifth senior brother took the pen and wrote a few words.

Wrote a couplet:

Restrain yourself most strictly, must restrain from the difficult;

Do good must be fruitful, do not fail to do it because it is small.

It was also considered a reminder to the people here.

After eating and drinking, with a red face, the group walked out of the restaurant, ready to return to the inn to pack their bags.

"Ah, comfortable, relaxed." The third senior brother stretched and said, "So far, there is only one thing left to do."

"What is it?"

"How is that Cuiwei City Yili Shenjun?"

"The Husheng Husheng Zhenjun didn't eliminate him, but the fifth junior brother told the local commoners about the Cuiwei City Yili Shenjun's actions. The commoners were angry and were about to tear down his statue and invite other deity statues from other places." The second senior brother answered.

"That means he is still there!"

"His death date is set, why rush for a moment?"

"How can that be the same?" The third senior brother shook his head and said to Lin Jue, "Let's go meet this mediocre official and stupid deity!"

"I'm going too!"

The junior sister also held her long sword, her face red.

The three went to the City Yili Shenjun Temple.
