Celestial Immortal

Chapter 262 Take office!Metropolitan compound

I learned from Master Xu Pingdao.

Senior brother Zhenqing really regretted not being elected and failed to become the county governor's counselor.

Chu Chen had already guessed this scene, but still felt sorry for senior brother Zhenqing.

With the senior brother's seven-rank Taoism practice, if there is a "Counselor of the County" as a springboard, after the performance appraisal, he will be able to fill in the vacancies and let the county general take charge of ghosts and gods.

Of course, not being selected as a government counselor does not mean that there is no hope of filling the vacant county government, it depends on luck.

"Master, why didn't Master Uncle help Senior Brother?"

In the hall, Chu Chen couldn't help asking.

As the deputy governor, the senior uncle has a high position and authority. If he is willing to help, it is not difficult to help the senior brother capture a seventh-rank monster.

Daoist Xu Ping shook his head and said:
"The gang can indeed help, but your big brother is not hot enough, and the Lingshan faction is a small sect. If it is released to the outside world, I may not be able to help him. He can only rely on himself, and rashly push him to the county. The disadvantages of the position outweigh the advantages, and it is not good for the people of the county, and the morality is not worthy, and it will harm others and yourself. As for letting the county take care of it, there will be more opportunities in the future, so there is no need to rush for a while."

After finishing speaking, the master looked at Chu Chen:
"My master and your uncle secretly hope that Zhenqing can capture a seventh-rank monster with his own ability. If he can really do it, he has the ability, and the opportunity is enough. Who knows, Zhenqing failed, but you did." County Governor Counselor."

Chu Chen smiled:
"The main thing is that the sixth man has made meritorious service. The little demon under his command happened to bump into the tiger demon. I relied on my master's supernatural power and the military supernatural power passed down by Mr. Guigu to kill the tiger demon by luck."

Hearing the words, the little ghost on the side couldn't think of what to say, so he blurted out:
"Master, I haven't even seen that seventh-rank tiger demon before my senior brother. I'm so aggrieved. It's not like the first time we met a seventh-rank monster when we were in the eighth-rank Taoist practice. Then we were chased by the monster. Run, I almost knelt down and begged for mercy."

"Cough cough~"

The past was unbearable, Elder Xu Pingdao blushed and glared at the little ghost.

You bastard, what are you talking about, master, I don't want to lose face?

Daoist Xu Ping took the little ghost in his hand, touched the little ghost's head, and said sharply:
"Little ghost, you have smoked too much incense recently, and your mind is not working. Tonight, you will be punished by copying four scriptures. I will check tomorrow morning."

The little ghost boy also realized something, touched his head, looked innocent, and dared not speak out.

Chu Chen couldn't help laughing, the little ghost boy is just like this, he can say whatever he thinks of, and he can do whatever he wants.

This is why it can be a sign of bad luck.

After weighing the pros and cons, it doesn't work.

Next, the master and apprentice talked again.

Daoist Xu Ping pointed out to Chu Chen how the "counselors in charge of the county capital" should handle their errands and what taboos they should have. Chu Chen confessed.

After listening to the words, Chu Chen benefited a lot, and he had a firm grasp of the errands that the counselors were in charge of, so he didn't panic.

In addition, Chu Chen also asked the master about the [Fu Hu Talisman] in the master's magic power [Subduing the Dragon and Subduing the Tiger].

In the middle of the night, Chu Chen returned to his small courtyard.

Daoist Xu Ping watched his apprentice leave, feeling a sigh of relief in his heart, and his sense of urgency grew stronger.

The apprentice's Taoism and supernatural powers have advanced too quickly.

"You have to hurry up and practice, or you won't be able to teach your apprentice soon."

After speaking, Taoist Master Xu Ping hurried back to the clean room of practice and practiced hard.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the time when he was not a teacher.

There are always people who spur him to practice hard.

Formerly a master, now an apprentice.

There is nothing more bleak than this.

The next day.

Chu Chen picked up the energy of the sun for two weeks and hurried to the County Ghosts and Gods Department to Dianmao.

This time, instead of going to the Yellow Courtyard in the north, he went straight to the Central Metropolitan Courtyard.

The County Ghosts and Gods Division occupies a vast area, and the houses and courtyards are densely packed and scattered in an orderly manner.

The entire County Ghost and God Division can be roughly divided into five parts.

The Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang and the Four Courts are separated in the southeast and the northwest, and the Du Guan Compound lives in the middle, where the Du Guan and the Deputy Du Guan handle errands, issue orders, and take charge of the affairs of the county's demons and gods.

After the great changes in the Zhongyuan ghost troubles, Guangping County Ghost and God Division currently has one supervisor and four deputy governors.

Duguan Han Chen, who was born in Louguan Taoism, is a fifth-rank Taixuan master, and is the minister of the Nine Heavens Jinque Yufu.

Li Guang, the deputy governor, was born in the North Pole Sect of the Qing Dynasty. He was a five-rank mage named Yuxu, the master of Dutian, and knew about exorcising evil spirits. The well-deserved second-in-command of the County Ghosts and Gods Division;
The deputy governor, Guan Yunlei Taoist, was born in the Lingshan School, from the fifth-rank master Yuxu, the Shaoqing of the Tianshu Yufu, and the second courtyard of Zhinanbei, in charge of the affairs of the ghost and god division of Guangping County;
Vice Duguan Yichen Zen Master, who was born in Zhenru Temple, was in charge of the affairs of Guangping County Ghost God Sixuan Academy from the fifth grade Master Yuxu;

The deputy governor, Jiuqiushanren, was born in the Wansheng sect, a master of the sixth grade Miaoying, and concurrently serves as the dean of Huanghaoyuan, the ghost and god department of Guangping County.

Among the four deputy governors, deputy governor Li Guang was born in the Sanqing sect, with a deep background and strong strength. He took over the position of the former deputy governor Fang, and was the well-deserved second in command of the county ghosts and gods.

Taoist Yunlei and Zen Master Yichen are ranked in no particular order, and their status is similar.

Jiuqiu Shanren ranked last,

The other deputy governors are all from the position of fifth-rank immortal, but he is the only one who is sixth-rank, and his status is slightly lower.

However, the practice method of Jiuqiu Mountain people focuses on cultivating the refined form, sanctifying the body, proving the Tao with strength, and the supernatural powers are extremely powerful, even the fifth-rank Taoist monks dare not underestimate them.

In addition, Jiuqiushanren is an old subordinate of Duguan Han Chen, with the support of Duguan, and he has been in charge of Huanghaoyuan for a long time, so his position is extremely stable and no one can shake it.

Chu Chen arrived at the Duguan compound on the front foot, and Wang Ping hurried over on the back foot.

"Brother Chu, wait for me."

Chu Chen stopped and waited, and the two entered the Duguan compound together.

After entering the compound, the two presented the decree of the Immortal Court, and the officials in charge of the compound respectfully put away the decree of the Immortal Court, and then arranged the two of them to rest and wait in a side hall.

Soon, a civil servant notified the two of them.

Wang Ping was assigned to go to the Jiuqiu Shanren, and the Jiuqiu Shanren took him;

Chu Chen was assigned to Master Bo Yunlei Taoist.

Chu Chen had anticipated this, and Master Xu Ping told him about it last night.

The main errand of the County Metropolitan Counselor is to assist the Metropolitan Administration. Chu Chen was transferred to the master Bo Yunlei in the "Pink Skull Case" before, so he can be regarded as the Counselor Metropolitan Administration.

However, that would be a temporary counselor, but now it is a full-time counselor, the kind with a formal post.

After receiving the specific appointment, Chu Chen and Wang Ping went to the small courtyard of the capital to report without saying a word.

Grand Master Bo Yunlei was in charge of the small courtyard, and it was not the first time Chu Chen had gone there, but he was familiar with the road, and the journey was smooth and unimpeded.

"Zhenyi, you are here."

Before Chu Chen entered the room, the voice of Master Bo Yunlei came to his ears from afar, and he was quite happy.

"I've met Master~"

Chu Chen wasn't too restrained, he entered the Duguan's study generously, and visited his uncle.

"Brother, you are here~"

"Hehe~ I have been working with Master on business."

When senior brother Zhenqing saw his junior brother Chu Chen, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face.

His current errand can be regarded as "the counselor is in charge", but it is only temporary and has no official establishment.
