Life Hunter

He stretched his finger a little above the disk. From bottom to top, a pillar of light and shadow grew out of the disk, which was about a foot long and about the thickness of a thumb.

Then, the light and shadow brass pillars sprayed brass threads around the perimeter, and the threads quickly intertwined to form three layers of light and shadow brass discs, increasing in size from bottom to top.

Under each disc of light and shadow, there is a circle of red curses and yellow talismans hanging, with dozens of them in a circle, as big as two fingers held together.

These translucent yellow talismans rotated slowly, and after an instant, a yellow talisman solidified.

Zhou Chunfeng opened his mouth to transmit the message.

After saying that, the yellow talisman burned, turned into a red bird, flew into the sky, and disappeared.

Hube Street.

After chatting with Duan Heng for a long time, Li Qingxian looked at the time and found that Luo Jing was still deep in thought, and snorted in his heart.

"Master Luo, it's getting late. If you are not willing to cooperate with our night guard, I will replace you with someone else." As he said that, Li Qingxian patted the brown paper bag in front of him.

Luo Jing raised his head and glanced at Li Qingxian, then looked away without saying a word.

Duan Heng on the side was anxious: "Master Shenzi, there is such a good thing, you can't miss it! This is the son of Mr. Gang Feng, he spits and nails, he says he can make money, he will definitely make it. He said you have a good chance of winning the third grade. , you will definitely be able to enter the third grade!"

Luo Jing remained unmoved.

Li Qingxian smiled, raised his feet and walked towards the household department, saying: "I am fortunate to meet you two today. Cooperation cannot be done without kindness. If we have the opportunity to have a drink together in the future, I will invite you. Farewell!"

Before Li Qingxian could take the third step, Duan Heng grabbed Li Qingxian's sleeve and turned to glare at Luo Jing: "Brother Jing, haven't you been nagging about getting into the third grade? Now the opportunity is right in front of you, why? Just give it away for nothing? It doesn’t make sense!”

Luo Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "You really sold me out completely...forget it. Li Qingxian, is this really what Mr. Zhou Chunfeng meant for this matter?"

"You're going to the North Twelfth Street in the outer district to ask around. When did Li Qingxian, my sunshine boy, tell lies?" Li Qingxian said sternly.

Luo Jing was suspicious and pointed at the jade pendant with deer and crane patterns on his waist and said, "Where did this thing come from?"

"My mother's jade pendant is said to ward off evil spirits." Li Qingxian said.

"Other than that?"

Li Qingxian lowered his head and thought for a while, then said slowly: "This was left to my mother by my grandpa. My grandpa is a life magician. This jade pendant is probably related to the life magician."

"Yes, this thing looks like something from the 'Measuring Life Sect'. It is not uncommon among life magicians, but it is also considered a treasure among ordinary people."

"I am indeed proficient in life arts." Li Qingxian said.

"Everyone can learn fortune-telling, but it is easy to learn but difficult to master, and the threshold is extremely high." Luo Jing turned to look at the black carriage and continued, "I have admired Mr. Zhou for a long time. As long as Mr. Zhou opens his mouth, I will definitely promote this cooperation. .”

Li Qingxian thought for a moment and said: "Uncle Zhou wanted me to take full responsibility for this matter in order to train me. But I didn't expect that as soon as I walked out of the door, I was stared at by Pang Mingjing. He is from the Finance Department and is related to our Shendu Department. The relationship is not on good terms, and it seems that he is planning to use me to embarrass Uncle Zhou. As long as I can be safely sent to the Yewei Yamen and meet Uncle Zhou, we can have formal discussions."

Duan Heng said in a low voice: "We are both called Uncle Zhou, so we can't go wrong with each other. Master Li and Master Zhou both have good official reputations, so they must be good friends."

Luo Jing glanced at Duan Heng coldly. Duan Heng's expression froze, he took half a step back and lowered his head.

"Pang Mingjing is a seventh-grade official, and I'm only an eighth-grade official. I'm afraid I'm powerless." Luo Jing stared into Li Qingxian's eyes.

Li Qingxian sighed and said: "I not only have the method of making spirits, but also other management skills. Since the road to the third grade or even the third grade is in front of me, and Mr. Luo is not interested, then there is nothing I can do. We can only find other people in the household department. Someone from the five major evil sects in the household department must be interested in this deal. Farewell!"

After Li Qingxian finished speaking, he raised his feet and left.

Luo Jing stood still.

Duan Heng stepped forward and winked, but did not dare to say anything else.

The two of them were getting farther and farther away, and Li Qingxian went straight to the side door of the household department.

"Stop!" Luo Jing said.

Li Qingxian turned a deaf ear and continued to move forward.

Luo Jing took a deep breath and said: "I promise you that I will send you back to Yewei Yamen safely. Duan Heng, you go in to find Lao Hu and the others, and take the magic card with you."

"Brother Jing, you are the one!" Duan Heng gave a thumbs up and trotted into the south courtyard of the Ministry of Finance.

Hearing the "magic card", Li Qingxian stopped and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as the magic card comes out, you will not worship me. Under the gods, all believers are equal.

"How is my sincerity?" Luo Jing asked with a smile.

"It's just so so." Li Qingxian said.

Luo Jing snorted coldly and was about to say something when he glanced at the black carriage calmly and said, "Everyone is here, let's go to the Yewei Yamen."

Li Qingxian said: "Lord Luo has done his best to help people in times of crisis. I will thank you in the next five days."

Luo Jing was angry and laughed at the same time: "What's the use of praising me as an inferior night guard? Others will only laugh at me. If your father were still alive, one word of "good" praise for me would be worth a thousand words."

"Maybe many years later, in the history of history, these words will be better than my father's praise." Li Qingxian said.

Luo Jing looked at Li Qingxian carefully and said with a smile: "You are ambitious. It's not in vain. I saw your extraordinary bearing, so I asked you a few questions on the spur of the moment."

Li Qingxian took a deep breath, couldn't hold it back, and said, "Stop talking nonsense. You only talked to me after seeing the deer and crane pattern jade pendant. Do you think I can't tell?"

"Don't slander me. I, Luo Jing, am also an upright and upright young man in the household department." Luo Jing finally had no shame to say it.

"I believe Mr. Luo is an upright young man." Li Qingxian said.

"I also believe you are a sunshine boy." Luo Jing said.

The two looked at each other seriously and nodded.

"Are there nine sticks of one-foot incense in the paper bag?" Luo Jing suddenly pointed his chin at the paper bag and touched the wrinkles at the corners of his mouth.

Li Qingxian understood instantly, turned to look at the black carriage, and cursed in his heart.

No wonder Han Anbo said that etiquette should come first. How can you not worship the temple when meeting God? How can you not burn incense when worshiping the temple?

This household department is the household department of the imperial court and also the household department of the five evil sects.

Although I have never been to the household department, I have vaguely heard this saying. Bring incense into the household department to worship gods rather than people.

If you go to Hubu without bringing incense to pay homage, at least you will be forced by the believers in Hubu to buy nine incense sticks per foot at a high price, or at worst your family will be destroyed in the name of blasphemy.

"Thank you, Mr. Luo, for reminding me." Li Qingxian sighed in his heart. These Ministry of Household officials are all good people. Luo Jing first showed his sincerity and then made a profit. No matter what he did, he had to remember this favor.

"It doesn't matter. This kind of little trick is only used to embarrass outsiders and is of no use to our own family." Luo Jing said.

"By the way, you also study fortune-telling? I am not good at writing or martial arts, so I have some experience in fate-making." Li Qingxian said.

In Daqi, life magicians have a unique status.

It is clearly recorded in the daily notes of Taizu of Qi that the reason Taizu raised troops and established a dynasty was because he had the support of the Tianming Sect, the largest sect of fortune-telling.

So far, the imperial family of Daqi only worships one sect, the Tianming Sect.
