Celestial Immortal

Chapter 254

Chu Chen and Wang Ping are in charge of "catching demons" and are quite free. After the morning meeting, they can leave the Department of Ghosts and Gods to do their own work.

Wang Ping didn't chat with Chu Chen much this time, and left in a hurry.

Needless to say, Wang Ping naturally went to "catch wanted" monsters.

Chu Chen knew in his heart that Wang Ping must have received strong support from his family and teachers in this competition for the "Counselor of the County Governor".

This can be regarded as one of the strong advantages of the family and division.

At critical times, many resources can be given to allow them to gain an advantage that ordinary casual cultivators can't match in the competition of their peers and peers.

Chu Chen did not continue to ask Wang Ping for news.

Strictly speaking, the two are still in a bit of a competitive relationship, and it is very interesting that people can disclose the news to him in advance.

Chu Chen also has a teacher as his backer.

Although the small school of the Lingshan School cannot give him all kinds of strong direct support.

However, the master and uncle are both on duty in Guangping County, and the news is not bad at all, so you can know what is going on with the "counselor in charge of the county" as soon as you ask.

After leaving the county ghost and god department, Chu Chen went straight back to Yunshuiju.

Master Xu Pingdao was away on errands last night, and he really came home during the day today. Not long after Chu Chen came back with the kid, Master also came back.

"Master (Master)!"

Daoist Xu Ping nodded slightly, took the apprentice and served him hot tea.

"Why didn't you go into the mountain today?"

These days, Chu Chen went into the mountains every day to hunt for treasures and catch demons, but he was a little surprised that he didn't go into the mountains suddenly.

Chu Chen smiled, and instead of going around in circles with his master, he directly asked the county governor's counselor.

"You are quite well informed."

Taoist Xu Ping took a sip of tea and nodded slightly:
"That's right, it's true. After half a year, there will be three exams. Two days ago, the Qingzhou Ghost and God Department conveyed the decree, asking each county to select a group of young leaders as the counselors of the capital within a month or two, and train a group of talents for follow-up Choose."

The three exams are performance appraisals every three years.

There is a cloud in ancient books, three years of examination of achievements, dethrone Youming, concubine Xianxi.

Whether it is a fairy court official or an official of the Celestial Dynasty, the three-year performance appraisal is related to their future. Some people are promoted and transferred, and some are demoted.

According to different regions and different situations, officials and officials in various places may be promoted or demoted, rewarded or punished, and so on.

The three-year performance appraisal period is the time of the greatest changes, the easiest to fill vacancies, and the most opportunities.

Chu Chen knew it in his heart.

"Master, since this is a special training for Duguan, isn't the County Duguan Counselor stuck in the seventh-rank cultivation?"

Thinking of this, Chu Chen became a little anxious.

Within a month or two, he has the confidence to enlighten Lord Tongue Yuan in the "Five Senses Yuanjun", and complete the practice of the eighth grade Taoism.

However, he is not sure of breaking through the seventh-rank Taoism cultivation base.

Great realm breakthroughs, panacea and other effects are not that great, mainly relying on oneself.

Sometimes the state of mind of Dao Xing changes, and it can be improved overnight, and the cultivation base of Qipin Dao Xing is at your fingertips.

If there is no opportunity to realize it, it is very common to be stuck in the bottleneck for a year or so or even several years.

For example, big brother Zhenqing, the eighth-rank Taoist cultivation kung fu has long been completed, but it is a pity that he has not been able to enter the seventh-rank.

A few days ago, Chu Chen refined the spell [Vibrating Ghosts and Strike Thunder].

Eldest brother really knew that maybe he was stimulated and broke through to the seventh rank in one fell swoop.

In addition, Wang Ping was also stuck in the eighth-rank Taoism, and he was unable to enter the seventh-rank for a long time.

"It stands to reason that the county governor's counselor should have the seventh-rank Taoism. Now, if he is transferred from the first-class deputy team leader to the governor's counselor, he can be promoted to the seventh-rank immortal official. The follow-up performance is good. After three years of performance appraisal, the local If there is a vacancy again, the department of ghosts and gods in a certain county can be delegated to take charge of the county governor, and take charge of the affairs of ghosts and gods."

Daoist Xu Ping guessed what Chu Chen was thinking, and said with a smile:

"However, things are not absolute. The superiors have never stipulated the morality and cultivation of the county governor's counselors. The selection range designated by Han Chen's governor is also the first-class deputy team leader."

Chu Chen was overjoyed and asked:

"Look, do I still have a chance?"

Daoist Xu Ping nodded: "Yes, you can fight for the county governor's counselor, after all, this is a rare learning opportunity."

"As for the management of the county, there is no way to force it. You must have a seventh-rank cultivation base, and you must be outstanding in Taoism and supernatural powers."

Chu Chen nodded, he naturally understood this truth.

He wasn't greedy either, so he first tried to become the county governor's counselor.

As for delegating to the governor of a county, he also has a little hope in his heart, hoping that he will be promoted to the seventh rank within half a year.

The master and apprentice chatted for a while, Chu Chen remembered something, and handed him a treasure box.

"This is?"

Daoist Xu Ping was a little surprised.

"Master, this disciple honors you, [Yuechan Qishi Baowan], you take it just in case."

Sister Wan'er's [Qi Shi Bao Pill], Chu Chen asked Qingying to help send it over, and now, only Master has not sent it out.

"Where did you come from?"

Daoist Xu Ping was quite surprised.

"Brother Gou Six gave it to me."

Chu Chen roughly explained the process.

Daoist Xu Ping also learned about the loyal dog's sixth child before, and his face was full of emotion and relief when he heard this.

"It's a good story to form a good relationship and reap good fruits."

"As for the treasure pill, Master has given it his heart, so you can keep it for yourself. If you don't lack money, keep it in your hand, and it will always be of great use in the future."

Master Xu Pingdao was very happy, but he didn't accept the disciple's filial piety.

No matter how Chu Chen and Xiaoguizai tried to persuade him, Master Xu Pingdao did not accept Baowan.

Chu Chen understood his master's temper, but he didn't insist in the end.

For the next period of time, Chu Chen didn't make any big moves because he wanted to compete for the "counselor of the county governor".

On the contrary, he seemed very relaxed.

Chanting scriptures every day, collecting herbs to refine qi, internally refining soldiers and horses, everything is done step by step.

As the saying goes, sharpening knives does not fail to chop woodworkers.

Chu Chen was very aware of his strengths and weaknesses.

His strengths lie in mutual aid associations and the sixth child.

With the injection of a large amount of jade money, the mutual aid association has developed rapidly, and the mutual aid association is heading for one mountain after another. Brothers are everywhere, and the eyes and ears are getting better and better. It has a great advantage in arresting demons.

As for the disadvantages, they are also obvious.

That is, he practiced Taoism much later than his peers. Although his talent and opportunities are very good, his Taoism cultivation is still a bit short, and he is at a disadvantage in the competition for "Counselor of the County Governor".

So, for the next period of time, Chu Chen practiced hard every day, without stopping every day.

Harvesting the qi of the sun every day and qi of the lunar yin at night, supplemented by collecting the qi of golden light, the cultivation of Taoism will improve a little every day.

In order to enlighten the last Tong Yuanjun in the "Five Senses Yuanjun" as soon as possible.

Chu Chen, who was pregnant with fifty thousand jade coins, was not stingy, and regardless of the cost, he burned [Tiantian Ruyi Incense], practiced the Dafa of Tongtian Ruyi [King Kong Lingtong Sword Technique], and picked up the secret energy outside the sky, supplemented by practice.

I worked hard for ten days in a row.

Two ninth-rank ghost generals under his command were successfully promoted to eighth-rank "Flying Eight Generals", and another hundred ninth-rank soldiers and horses were promoted to eighth-rank soldiers and horses.

In this way, Chu Chen has a top-rank magical general, a middle-rank magical general, which is equivalent to the "Flying Eight Generals" of a low-rank magical general, and five hundred and eighth-rank soldiers and horses.

This luxurious lineup, placed in the eighth-rank realm, is absolutely extremely tyrannical.

Relying on this army and horses, plus [Human Xin Yinling Wansheng Treasure], Chu Chen has the confidence to fight against the monks and demons of the seventh rank.

The seventh-rank mentioned here is not a seventh-rank ghost with superficial supernatural powers, but a serious seventh-rank monster and monk.

In addition, Chu Chen's own cultivation has also improved a lot.

Faintly, there were signs of attunement to "Jun Tong Yuan".

"The tongue is the instrument of sound. In the clean room, how can Lord Tongue Yuan transform into a Yuanling? Why don't you go and make trouble for a walk and listen to the voices of all living beings."

Thinking of this, Chu Chen suddenly got up and shouted.

"Come on, little devil, let's go out and play!"
