Chapter 9 Drinking makes people bold “Although the prayer technique doesn’t count, you sending people to spread it is tantamount to stealing incense.” The Dragon King of Dafangtangchi said in a stern manner."Really? Do you have any evidence that it was the person I sent?" Gu Yunli kicked the ball over. "He is from your Tianan Village, so he is naturally the one you sent." "What a coincidence. As far as I know, your Excellency the temple keeper is also spreading the Internet. Could it be that he is also someone I sent?" When these words were spoken, the Dragon King of Dafang Pond became so angry that his face turned red and he almost turned into a demon, but he was speechless and could not utter a word. Because his temple priest is really spreading the "Record of Worshiping the Big Dipper" technique on the Internet. He couldn't say that this was a betrayal by the temple keeper, right? If this were to be spoken out loud, it would not only be extremely shameful, but the temple priest would also be executed. The impact would be too great. At this moment, all the land gods were dumbfounded. They came in a rage, full of anger, but when they got in front of him, they couldn't vent it out, so they felt very aggrieved. "Humph, this matter is not over yet."
A local god flicked his long sleeves and was about to leave. When the land gods saw this, they were so angry that they had to turn around and leave, thinking that there was still a lot of time to fight slowly. "Wait!" Gu Yunli spoke and called out to everyone. "My underground palace is a gift from the Immortal Court. How can it be a place where you can come and go as you please?" "What do you want?" The Dragon King of the Pond was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and his two catfish whiskers popped out uncontrollably. "Everyone hand over a hundred incense sticks to atone for your sins! Of course, as a colleague, I will not take advantage of you. From now on, any incense money I get from you under my control will be split 50-50. What do you think?" Gu Yunli said with a teasing look on his face. When the land dragon kings first heard the word "apologize", they were so angry that their blood boiled. Unexpectedly, when the second half of the words came out, they were all dumbfounded. "May I ask what Lord Gu meant by what he just said?" The landowner of Liujiagou asked cautiously. "It means exactly what it says." Gu Yunli briefly explained, and then asked, "Where does Tu Bo work, and what is his name?" "I am Zhuang Renju, the landowner of Liujiagou." "It turns out to be Lord Zhuang. I am so sorry for the disrespect. In the past three days, I have received five incense sticks from Liujiagou. I will split them 50-50, with two and a half sticks for each. Please keep them well, Lord Zhuang!" Gu Yunli said this and waved his hand to send out two and a half incense sticks. Looking at the incense smoke wafting in the air, the landowner of Liujiagou was dumbfounded. Gathered in the hall, the angry Land Dragon King was also stunned. Still wearing this? If they had known that Lord Gu was so kind and righteous, why would they have forced the emperor to abdicate?
"Oh, Uncle Gu, please forgive me. I am blind and don't know Uncle Gu's kindness and justice. I hope I have offended you. I hope you can forgive me. I hope you can accept the small amount of incense and don't refuse it!" The Dragon King of Xiaofangtang Pond suddenly apologized loudly, bowed with both hands, and bowed to the bottom. Hundreds of incense sticks floated over. "Master Gu is so kind and righteous. I am sorry for offending you. I hope you will forgive me!" "No one is perfect, since we are not Yao or Shun! I hope you will understand me, Mr. Gu!" "The saints value tolerance, while the common people despise the masses..." The hall of the underground palace suddenly became lively. The land dragon kings all bowed and apologized, and spoke witty remarks one after another, flattering the emperor loudly. If you can get two and a half incense sticks as dividends in three days, wouldn’t that mean you will have twenty-five in thirty days? Although they need to pay a hundred incense sticks as apology, they can earn it back in four months at most. What's wrong with a little flattery? Gu Yunli had a smile on his face and accepted the flattery of the immortals and gods. At the same time, he called on Zhao Mancang to quickly set up a banquet to entertain the distinguished guests. At this time, Zhao Mancang, who was ready to take action at any time, looked at the situation in the hall and was confused. It took him a while to react and he quickly told the ghosts to get ready. Soon, a banquet was set up and all the gods were invited to take their seats. With the humility of the land dragon kings, Gu Yunli sat at the top and drank with the gods. When the banquet was in full swing, Chen Bogong from Dajing Village asked casually: "Master Gu, these past few days, I've seen young men from your village dragging almost all the villagers from Dajing Village to pray to the gods. Seeing this, many villagers shouted for miracles and burst into tears. They are extremely pious, but why is there so little incense?" As soon as these words fell, all the local gods at the banquet, who seemed to be drinking and eating, actually pricked up their ears and listened. Seeing this, Gu Yunli sneered in his heart, it is true that human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant! He donated some incense for nothing, but he didn't expect that before he could express his gratitude for long, he started to doubt. Human nature is indeed ugly. "Hahaha, let Uncle Chen know that Gu's prayer technique is very costly. Most of the incense will be consumed when burning incense to pray. Therefore, even though the incense is burning, I only take a small amount. It all depends on quantity. Otherwise, Gu would not have made the Qi Refining method public." Gu Yunli showed contempt in his heart, but explained seriously on his face. As a time traveler, he knows very well that he needs to make more friends and fewer enemies! As the saying goes: Those who share the same interests will die together, and those who share the same boat will live together. It's a good deal to pay a tiny price to recruit a group of hairy gods and tie them to his chariot! "I see!" The land gods suddenly understood. ——Little do people know that the Internet is directly presented to the user's field of vision, and its purpose is to reduce energy loss. Therefore, burning incense and praying for it will not cause much loss at all. In short, with Gu Yunli's explanation, the land dragon kings had to believe it no matter whether they believed it or not. Gu Yunli also took the opportunity to give some preventive measures. For example, if no one uses the Internet, its popularity will decline, so we would like to trouble you all to look after it. The land dragon kings naturally patted their chests and made the guarantee. As the banquet was about to end with the cups and plates in disarray, a sudden piece of news interrupted Gu Yunli's slightly tipsy state.
Everyone saw Gu Yunli frowning suddenly, staring blankly, and after a while, he sighed softly. "Mr. Gu, why are you sighing?" Chi Longwang asked hurriedly, trying to gain some impression points and erase his previous offense. "To be honest, Brother Long, I heard that someone in Tong County was selling a seal, so I sent someone to inquire about it. I didn't expect to hear that the seal had already been sold. What a pity!" Gu Yunli sighed, and then suddenly seemed to remember something, looked at everyone and said: "Do you know where I can buy the seal of the hall?" Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. The Nanpo Township local official asked curiously, "As a local official, why does Gu Bogong want to purchase the Fengtang order?" Gu Yunli smiled and said, "There is a tiger sleeping soundly beside my bed. I can do nothing but ask the door god to keep watch." Everyone's expression changed slightly, and they all thought of the recent rumors. After hearing this, I immediately realized that the rumors were true. It seemed that after Uncle Gu was ambushed by Mr. Cui San, the fight would not stop until his death! Otherwise, I wouldn't say it in public. "Uncle Gu, Xiaolong does know of a list of appointments to the throne. I wonder if you dare to take it?" The Dragon King Chi stood up and bowed. "Oh? Where?" "Far away in the horizon, close before our eyes..." The Dragon King paused, and the catfish's face flushed red, perhaps from the alcohol or excitement. His whiskers trembled as he squeezed out six words in a cold voice: "Tian'an Village, Tian'an Hall!" (End of this chapter)
