There were a few people following behind the county magistrate, all of whom were white-hot. Fang Ming glanced at the corner of his eyes, and He Song was also among them.

The group came not far from the county government office and saw that they entered a place, which looked like a ancestral temple. It took a long time to come out. Fang Ming looked at it, and the corners of his eyes twitched. The luck of the county magistrate and the county magistrate seemed to be weaker, and the same was true for the people behind him.

Although there was a hint of white energy to replenish it, it could not be replenished for a while. Fang Ming Daqi called a friend and pointed to the ancestral temple and asked, "Where is that? Why did all the officials go in?"

The guy Daqi stared at Fang Ming, and Zhiru saw monsters, but he still said, "That is a royal ancestral temple, which worships the ancestors of all dynasties. There are people in every city, and the people in the government have to worship every day. Even the people have to go to the square in front of the temple on the first day of the 1st and 15th day of the day. The curfew will be lifted in the next two days, a temple fair, and a big show will be held for a few days. It is very lively. Most of the people in the world are like this, why don't the guest officials know?"

Fang Ming was shocked, his eyes flashed with red light, and the guy looked confused, and he seemed a little dizzy. He shook his head and asked, "What are the instructions for the guest?" But he forgot what he had just happened.

"Oh, nothing, I'm from another place. I'm here to visit and want to find a temple to worship. Do you know that there are any famous ancestors in this city?" Fang Ming smiled, threw out two big money and said.

The guy's face flashed with joy and quickly put away the two big money. He didn't even care about the dizziness just now. He said, "If you want to talk about the ancestor spirit, it is the ancestor spirit of Zhou, Wu, Zheng, and Wang. He has been worshipped for hundreds of years. It is very supernatural, but it is a family temple, which cannot be visited by outsiders. In addition, it is Baishui Temple. The Baiyun Sword worshipped is also effective, especially it can drive away ghosts!"

"Oh!" This really aroused Fang Ming's interest. He asked the friend carefully about the location before letting him out.

After sitting for a while, when I thought of the royal ancestral temple and the royal blessed land that He Yuqing mentioned, I had some guesses. In my previous life, the royal ancestral temple was not something that outsiders could go to, and I had been punished for a long time.

But in this world, the royal family has a huge blessing land and consumes a lot. Even if the ancestors of all dynasties use the emperor's energy to supplement it and collect all officials, it is probably a bit insufficient. They set up ancestral temples in various places, ordering officials to worship, collect their luck, and replenish their blessing land. In addition, the high sacrifice is held on the first and fifteenth day of each month to collect the energy of the people and replenish them at all times, so that they can maintain the blessing land and maintain blessings.

As for the mixed fortune, divine power, incense, vows, spiritual power, and resentment, the confusion of sacrificed people will make the earth-bound spirits. Haha, don’t forget that the ancestors of all dynasties were bound in the royal blessing land and could not come out. They were also considered earth-bound spirits, but the scope of the bondage was very large.

When the cage is big, there is no limit. The blessed land is rich in resources. They are afraid that they are a little happy when they are in it. Therefore, they have to do everything possible to maintain the blessed land and collect the luck and incense of officials and people in the sun.

Well, Daqian Taizu's eyes have a long-term vision, and he is afraid that it is not only addicted to enjoyment, but also to collect luck. After returning to his own family, he will take charge of the dragon vein and transfer the collected energy to the current emperor to extend the energy.

After thinking about it this way, it was right before and after. Fang Ming suddenly felt a little melancholy, stood up and sighed again.

Thinking of the Taizu of Daqian, a hero of his generation, two hundred years ago, the world was in chaos. Taizu brought a three-foot sword, which started from the smallest, governed elite soldiers, slaughtered refugees, cut down dozens of dragons with one sword, suppressed the world, and achieved the fate of the Daqian country.

Such people are also bound by the will of the people, and have to be trapped in a blessed land. They have to plan for their descendants and even drink poison to quench their thirst. How sad is this!

If you gain the spirit of the people in the world, you will naturally have a connection with the people. If the current emperor works hard to govern the country, he will give the people a peaceful rule, or he will be able to break this cause and condition. Otherwise, once the world is in chaos and the creatures are in trouble, I am afraid that the incense and fortune collected over the years will be backfired. At that time, even if you do a great job in Taizu, you will be afraid that you will be scattered.

Fang Ming quickly cheered up again, time was precious. Since the news had been heard almost, it would be better to go to Baishui Temple to find out. As he expected, this view must be related to Baiyun Temple. Maybe it is a part of the view. Just go and get a glimpse of the background.

Anchang County is vaguely divided into four parts, with the county government in the middle. To the south are the residences of large households and officials. On the east are the residences of merchants and small households. To the north are the residences of slums, there are also craftsmen living in the west. On the west are the residences of military households and their families.

Baishui Temple is located in the east of the city.

Fang Ming walked along the way and thought about it all the way, and you could see a lot of things from the location of Baishui Temple.

First of all, the Taoist view of the previous life was usually located outside the city, but it was not possible here. There were evil ghosts. If Baiyun General View, of course, he would not be afraid, but the division view of this small county is probably not enough. And even if it can be kept, except for farmers in nearby areas who come to burn incense, other areas will definitely not be willing to come. So how can you? Don’t have incense?

It can only be set up in the city, and the center is not possible. Not to mention the land price is expensive, the government will not agree. After all, the royal ancestral temple is here! Do you dare to compete with the royal family for incense?

It is very suitable to the south, but unfortunately, the big officials all know some Feng Shui. You can pay a visit and donate some incense money, but it is impossible to build it next to his house. Besides, some Confucian officials have always been hostile to Taoist priests and often have memorials that "Taoist priests are humble and should not be allowed to go to the court." The relationship between the two is very subtle.

There are military households on the west side, and there is military aura to suppress evil spirits. It is not suitable for the divine way or the immortal way.

Only the east of the city and the north of the city are left. The residents in the east of the city are relatively rich, and the north of the city is a slum area, and Taoist temples can only be built in the east of the city.

Fang Ming thought it through and immediately realized that if he wanted to build a temple in the city but did not want to directly conflict with Baiyun Temple, there was only one place in the north of the city.

But that is also a good place. In Fang Ming's view, the only things that need faith the most are the top and bottom of society. The middle class, with the comparison between the poor, the sense of happiness comes. If there is a goal above, you will naturally strive for it without comfort.

The highest level is that all material needs are met, so they have to turn to spiritual needs. The lowest level is that there is nothing, and they will firmly grasp the straw, and faith is the most fanatical. If you build a temple in the north of the city, you can naturally take root, but you should pay attention to cooling down the believers and not let yourself get trapped.

Along the way, there were pawn shops, incense shops, cloth shops, grain shops, restaurants, and small stalls, as well as peddlers who carried goods and sold them all over the streets. There were many pedestrians in the city, bustling with rosy faces, and they looked a few points higher than almost everyone in the countryside. No wonder most villagers were willing to live in the city.

When I arrived at Baishui Temple, I found that although it was in the city, the Taoist temple was still very well built, divided into the gate, front yard, main hall, back hall, garden, etc. There were many wing rooms on both sides.

When Fang Ming came to the hall, he saw that the person worshipping was not a person, but a sword, probably the Baiyun Sword mentioned by the friend. Fang Ming looked carefully and found that the Baiyun Sword looked very simple, without a scabbard, with a light green color all over, and seemed to be mixed with golden light, which was very magical.

At this time, someone was worshiping. As the man bowed, Fang Ming saw the incense and vows mixed with luck and rushed towards the Baiyun Sword. The golden light of the Baiyun Sword flashed. The incense and vows were broken by the golden light, but they were still attached to the sword. The remaining vows surged into the void, as if something was sucked away. As soon as the sword body moved, a trace of sword energy attached to the worshiper, which was fierce and could drive away the evil spirit.

Fang Ming's mind changed rapidly. With the answer, his luck must have been sucked away by the real Baiyun Sword. After thinking about it carefully, he would have a little more understanding of the Taoist sect.

The immortal path pursues its own tranquility and freedom, which is completely contrary to the incense vows. These incense vows are a great poison for qi refiners and cannot be affected.

Therefore, no Taoist was given a sacrifice, but the items were different, especially the treasures that suppressed the fortune of the sect.

Taoist temples are widely built to worship treasures and collect luck. When mortals worship, the incense and vows are broken, and the false objects worship the false objects are blocked, and most of them are absorbed by the false objects worshipped. However, the fortune of believers is absorbed by the main body of the treasures collected in the altar, adding power, and giving a trace of power to ensure peace among believers and breaking the cause and condition.

Therefore, even if there are still a little bit of incense and the power of incense is left, it will not be a big deal to trace the source and find the true body of the treasure. Compared with the luck you gain, it is insignificant.

The more luck the treasure collects, the greater the power of the natural treasure, and can suppress the foundation of the sect and ensure that the Taoist priests are not lost.

There will not be many such treasures in the whole world, and they will be collected by Taoist sects.

If you want to know the strength of the Taoist sect, you can understand one or two by looking at the Taoist temples under its subordinates. After all, treasures must be used. Once they are used, they will inevitably be damaged. At this time, luck needs to be repaired. Even if the Taoist sect has secret treasures, there will not be many, one thing is overwhelming.

After comparing the income of believers, he found that the Taoist sect was far less generous than his own in this regard. The protection he gave was only about 20 or 30% of the money his believers paid, which was much more stingy than himself.

If the Taoist temples in the world are all in this mode, then your own divine will win a lot and you will not be afraid of competition.

"Why did this layman stand for a long time, but he has some understanding of the worship of our Taoist sect?" Fang Ming was thinking, but was suddenly interrupted by a voice. He immediately knew that he had entered the hall and did not burn incense to worship, but stood to check, which was different and attracted attention.

When I came to my senses, I looked at the person who came and found that it was an old man. He was dressed in a Taoist priest, his hair was white, and he looked elegant and out of dust. He had a bit of fairy spirit and looked very good. Looking at his luck, his white energy was faint and water-shaped, but he was not even as good as spiritual bamboo. He knew that he had obtained some of the fur of practicing Taoism. He was only at this level in his cultivation. He should be an outer disciple and was sent to manage the Taoist temple.

He just smiled and said, "Mr. Li came here to travel. I heard that Baishui Temple is very extraordinary. He came to visit him specially. He was in a daze for a moment. I hope he won't be surprised!"

The old Taoist bowed and said, "Where is where, since Mr. Li is here to visit, you might as well be led by the old Taoist and explain it to the layman."

"Haha... it's getting late, and Li still has important things, so I won't bother you. This is incense money, please accept it..." Fang Ming refused, but he couldn't guarantee that this person would not have any secret magical treasures to protect him, and he found clues.

He gave one or two silver dollars of incense money, and regardless of the Taoist's surprise expression, he said goodbye. This time he entered the city, he gained a lot, but he did not stay any more, and went straight out of the city gate and headed towards Qingxi Township.

Baishui Temple, a boy asked in confusion: "Master, why are you paying special attention to this person?"

The old Taoist smiled and said, "Although I have not practiced immortal techniques, I know some face-to-face techniques. Looking at this person's face, it is very ordinary, but he has extraordinary demeanor, not something in the pool, just make a good relationship..." But he was a little confused in his heart. This person gave him a strange feeling, but there is no need to say this.
