Chapter 126.
On the fifth day of the seventh month, Wang Dust traveled to Yunshan City to take food.
When he arrived at the Spirit Plant Hall, there were already quite a few people lining up.
On top of the grain platform of the Sprinkler Farm, there was still a high rack of immeasurable gold buckets that were secretly hated by countless farmers.
But this year, there was an extra large scale in front of the grain platform.
The field rents that everyone now paid were all weighed and calculated!
“C sixth guardhouse Gao Laosan, twenty acres of lower fields, paying three thousand three hundred and seventy five pounds of grain!”
“D4 Guards House Chen Shahe, fifteen mu of lower fields, 2,531 pounds of grain!”
“Zhang Yuan of the Second Guard Station of A, thirty mu of lower fields ……”
The deacon of the Spirit Plantation Hall held a book in his left hand and a pen in his right hand to call out the names in a loud voice.
He had thick eyebrows and big eyes with a righteous face, no longer the swineherd guy from last year.
Bags of golden rice were quickly weighed and poured into the infinite gold bucket to fill the grain storage bag.
This cycle was repeated, everything was well organized!
“Wait!”
The deacon of the Spiritual Plant Hall who was transcribing and counting suddenly made a gesture and pointed at a burly cultivator standing next to him, “You, go and bring down the Infinite Gold Dipper.”
“Yes!”
That cultivator immediately mounted the grain platform and opened his arms to pick up the nine-foot-square Infinite Golden Dipper.
Then propped it up and came down to the stage.
The entire gold sprinkling arena was silent, and all eyes were focused on the stout cultivator’s body.
The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became tense and heavy.
As for the middle-aged farmer who had just paid his field rent, his face gradually began to turn white.
Only to hear that Spirit Plant Hall deacon drink in a deep voice, “Pour!”
With his command, the Infinite Golden Pitcher tipped forward, and the more than three thousand pounds of rice stored inside poured out.
In the blink of an eye, it spread a thick layer on the ground!
The Spirit Plant Hall Deacon’s gaze was fixed, his eyes as sharp as a falcon’s.
He probed his hand and grabbed it in vain, ingesting a ball of spiritual rice and holding it in his palm, carefully inspecting it.
“Bold!”
In the next moment, this deacon angrily shouted, “How dare you mix water in the rice, what crime should be committed for bullying the sect like this?”
Although the rules of the Spirit Plant Hall’s grain collection were changed this year.
However, the Limitless Golden Dipper was not discarded and was used as a secondary weighing tool.
This spiritual tool could measure both volume and weight, accurately weighing spiritual grains under 100,000 pounds at a time.
Any hint of foul play would not be easily concealed!
This farmer who was nabbing the grain didn’t know the inside story and thought that it was now only calculated by weight, so he secretly did a little tinkering.
Humidifying some of the rice grains to increase their weight.
Anyway, a million pounds of paddy all ended up in one grain storage bag, and the probability of it being discovered was negligible.
Now things are exposed.
It was only then that he panicked, and immediately kneeled down and begged, “Xiao Xiu knows his mistakes ……”
“Come on people!”
The Spirit Plant Hall deacon could not help but immediately snapped, “Take him down, cane him for thirty, and drive him out of the outer gate!”
The two cultivators responsible for maintaining order immediately pounced over like wolves and tigers.
They took down the farmer, blocked the opposing method of power, and took out a Qi Mei package iron water fire stick.
They beat his buttocks to the ground!
Just did not remove the clothes and pants, is considered to retain the last dignity of the cultivator.
Nonetheless, these thirty canes hit down, the offender’s wail from high to low, already half dead.
He was then dragged out and thrown to the door of the Spirit Plant Hall, leaving a long blood trail on the ground.
Everyone who witnessed this scene was silenced.
Many Spirit Planters did not expect to be punished so harshly for just this matter!
However, there were also some who revealed a gloating expression.
Today wasn’t the first day of grain storage, and the same thing had actually happened a few times before.
Only the local news is relatively closed, many farmers do not know the situation, so some people moved the same crooked brain, the result is to lose their lives.
Driven out of the outer door, where in the outer domain there is still a place for him!
And at this moment in the crowd of people lining up, there were a few Spiritual Plantsmen with pale faces, quietly shrinking back.
Spirit Plant Hall deacon’s stern gaze swept over, said in a deep voice: “The Sect Master is merciful, compassionate farming is not easy, but it is not a reason for you and others to make false claims, if this happens again, please go to the Sin Beheading Platform!”
As soon as his words fell, several farmers hurriedly withdrew from the group.
That deacon also ignored it and continued to order the name grain.
The blood on the ground was quickly cleaned up, and the atmosphere on the Spilling Ground followed to return to normal.
Some of the Spirit Planters waiting in line whispered about what had just happened.
Everyone’s tone was filled with disdain and contempt.
He~tui!
To be so greedy, one deserves to be unlucky!
Wang Dust, who was standing in the group, witnessed the entire process of the whole thing happening and ending.
He was really speechless.
Wang Dust paid over 1,600 pounds of rice in a regular manner.
Compared to the same period last year.
This year’s self-reserved ration was enough for him to eat white rice at every meal until the beginning of spring next year!
After receiving ten points of sect contribution, Wang Chen left the Spirit Plant Hall.
If there were no accidents, he would never set foot in this place again in his life.
Wang Dust turned around in Yunshan City.
As Han Dashi had said, the prices of grain collected from the grain stores in the city had fallen quite a bit now.
And things like pills, talismans, and spiritual materials were all generally increasing in price!
Wang Dust found a rice pounding mill and pounded all of the rice he kept for himself into white rice.
He used some of the grain chaff to offset the cost and exchanged the rest for rice as well.
Although this wasn’t very cost-effective.
But Wang Chen stopped raising chickens!
Then he purchased three thousand kilograms of fresh demon beast meat.
Because the price of rice had fallen, the market price of demon beast meat had followed suit and gotten a bit cheaper.
Now that Wang Dust wasn’t considered a loner, there was still a Snack Cargo hanging around his waist.
Taking advantage of the cheap price of meat to stock up more was definitely right!
Finally, when Wang Chuan arrived at the Invitation to the Moon Building, it was already half past noon.
He sat in the elegant room and had just ordered his food when he waited for the guest of today’s banquet.
Vice Hall Master Cao Xiu from the Outer Sect’s Hall of Punishment!
Wang Chen and this senior brother from the Inner Sect could be said to be not “fighting” without knowing each other, the latter had helped a great deal, he should invite the other party again to express his gratitude in all senses of the word.
After exchanging pleasantries, the two of them took their seats, and delicious food was served in turn.
Inviting Moon Tower was one of the most famous restaurants in Yunshan City, and the spirit meals were done at a very high level.
Of course the prices were also quite expensive.
The table of food and wine in front of them would require at least a few dozen lower spirits to fix.
After three rounds of drinking.
Cao Xiu asked with a smile, “Senior Brother Wang, are you inviting me to dinner today for something else?”
Wang Dust nodded, “Senior brother is wise.”
It wasn’t really a big deal, the meager friendship between the two of them couldn’t withstand a few times of consumption.
This time, Wang Dust invited the other party for dinner, mainly wanting to understand the situation of the inner sect.
He said, “Senior brother, I plan to head to Sunset Peak tomorrow to re-establish my Immortal Registration, so I’d be grateful if you’d be kind enough to give me some advice!”
As soon as Cao Xiu heard that this was the case, he immediately said, “Good talk, senior brother I know everything.”
Cao Xiu was parachuted from the Inner Sect to serve in the Outer Sect’s Hall of Punishment after the end of the Human Hunting Case.
He had been hanging out in the Inner Sect for over ten years.
He couldn’t say that he knew the situation of the inner sect like the back of his hand, but it was more than enough to instruct Wang Chen.
Vice Hall Master Cao was also happy to answer questions for Junior Brother!
The Yunyang Inner Sect was divided into nine peaks, one peak and one lineage.
In addition to the main peak, Tahoe Peak.
There were also the eight peaks of Shangxuan, Mingxiu, Changyang, Lone Sword, Feiyu, Lingyuan, Qingmu and Sunset.
And the inner sect’s hierarchy was even more strict than the outer sect.
The ones with the highest status were undoubtedly the three Jindan Masters who sat at Taihao Peak.
Among them, Sect Leader Ji Guantao was the main internal, Left Protector Mu Qingqiu was the external, and there was also a Supreme Elder who was always in seclusion.
Next in order were the elders of each lineage, true disciples and ordinary inner sect disciples.
As for the hall masters, deacons and stewards of the inner sect halls.
They were a separate system.
Their status was often determined by their cultivation!
In addition, the strengths of the eight peaks and eight veins such as Shangxuan were both high and low.
Shangxuan was the strongest and Sunset was the weakest, but the Sunset Peak lineage had the largest number of inner disciples!
The largest number of people but the weakest strength?
When Wang Chen heard this, he couldn’t help but freeze.
Cao Xiu noticed his expression and laughed, “That’s right, Sunset is the weakest because the Sunset Peak lineage only has a mere three Purple Mansion Elders, and it ranks at the bottom of the Nine Peaks Discourse every year!”
“Senior Brother Wang ……”
Cao Xiu personally poured a cup of spirit wine for Wang Duan and said with a straight face, “You’re already very lucky to be able to enter the inner sect, regardless of whether the Sunset Peak lineage is strong or weak, there will be no shortage of opportunities for you to seek the Way and find the truth!”
“Elder brother now sends you a few words.”
“It’s not your business, hang on high, if you know it’s wrong, say less, if you can tolerate it, cultivation comes first!”
“When you understand these few words, then you will be able to gain a firm foothold in the inner sect.”
Wang Chen was silent for a moment, then raised his cup in salute.
“Senior brother is wise!”
