Chen Shaoxian was going to take the imperial examination, and this incident immediately caused heated discussion among all villagers. Isn’t Chen Shaoxian already an immortal? Immortals in this world are the first-class "profession". They can only be second to be an official. Why doesn’t he become an immortal but instead become an official?

Although I had questions, no one dared to ask.

The story of Chen Shaoxian destroying the entire Erhu bandit overnight has spread. In the morning, the village chief of Hujia Village specially brought people to thank him and also took three thousand taels of silver.

For Hujia Village, Chen Shaoxian is a benefactor; for Chenjia Village, Chen Shaoxian is a relative, but for people in other villages, Chen Shaoxian is too terrible. Not to mention villagers in other villages, they are residents of Chenjia Village. Many people suddenly feel a little afraid of them. When they see Chen Shaoxian, they are respectful and no longer as casual as before.

Strength determines everything. When you have strong enough, even if you don’t say anything, others will be trembling when they see you.

This is how Chen Shaoxian is. He is even more awesome than the village in Chenjia Village. If he really likes a girl from a certain family, he will have to send her here in one sentence...!

Of course, Chen Shaoxian would not do this, but no one dared to care about what he did.

When the three old men learned that Chen Shaoxian was going to take the imperial examination, they were so happy that they hurriedly took out a stack of books and placed them in front of him. These were all books for the Longhan Kingdom exam.

Chen Shaoxian simply looked through it and immediately discovered some problems.

The main books published by the Longhan Kingdom include "On the Virtue of Man", "On the Virtue of the World", "On the Immortals" and "On the Kings", which tell the story of the role of humans, that is, ordinary people. The only book involving immortals is "On the Immortals", which is an explanation of the relationship between humans and immortals.

"Immortals come from people, how can there be immortals without people? Therefore, it can also be said that humans are the first ones for immortals, and they should respect them." This is the main idea in "The Treatise on Man and Immortality".

Other books also explain the role of human beings from various perspectives.

It is interesting to praise people very much, which shows that Longhan Kingdom is very dissatisfied with immortals. Yes, no matter how strong the emperor is, can he be stronger than the immortals? Unless the emperor himself is an immortal.

"Three masters, who are the authors of these books?"

Chen Shaoxian asked.

An old man answered.

"Author! These works are written by the Tai Academy of Longhan. I heard that the Emperor of Longhan also participated in the compilation.

However, these books appeared thirty years ago, and were not these books before. I still remember that the imperial examinations were all praises to immortals at that time. What are the wonderful words such as infinite paths and subtle fairy music... Unfortunately, we are ordinary people and do not have that kind of fate! On the contrary, these articles praising mortals sound at least more pleasant."

Another old man touched.

"A mortal is a mortal after all. What can I do if the article is well said? Young fairy! You have the fate of immortals and teach them in the dreams of immortals, so! It's better to be an immortal, so our Chenjia Village will also benefit from it."

Chen Shaoxian smiled and began to read these books.

The book explains the various virtues of mortals, but the truth is very shallow, no, it should be very shallow. Of course, the so-called shallow is just from the perspective of Chen Shaoxian.

In Chen Shaoxian's previous life, many existences called saints appeared in history, including Confucius Sheng, Meng Sheng, Zeng Sheng, etc. They wrote a large number of classics and historical classics "The Analects of Confucius", "Mencius", "The Great Learning", etc. The principles in each book are much deeper than these books, and the two are not on the same level at all.

Moreover, classics such as "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius" all explain the principles of being a human being, and are people-oriented. This kind of book is completely in line with the scope of the imperial examination in the Longhan Kingdom.

Chen Shaoxian suddenly became excited. He thought he had to study hard for a year, but now it seems that it is not necessary. He had studied the classics of ancient sages seriously in his previous life, which was very useful.

There was no need for Chen Shaoxian to waste time with the other party, just take it back and see it yourself. The three old gentlemen nodded quickly.

"Shaoxian, you can do whatever you want. It's better to practice the exercises quickly..."

Taihu County, 700 miles away from Chenjia Village, covers an area of ​​50 miles and is home to more than 600,000 people. The county government is located in the center of the city.

Taihu County is very large, covering an area of ​​more than 200,000 square miles, and nearly 10,000 square miles are all under the management of Taihu County. The total number of people in the county is more than 5 million. In Chen Shaoxian's previous life, such a region is as large as a small and medium-sized country.

Jiang Yong was the county magistrate of Taihu County. At this time, he sat in front of the table and threw the teacup to the ground.

"My nephew! You...you died so miserably!"

My nephew only sent 1,000 taels of silver yesterday, so why was he killed today? And the entire Erhu Mountain was destroyed and more than 70 people were wiped out. Who did it?

"Zhang Biao, you said, who have you offended? Could it be that he is a person from the Immortal Sect?"

There was a middle-aged man kneeling in front of him. He was the deputy leader of Erhu Mountain. He sent the money yesterday. After returning, he found that the entire village was burned. Fortunately, he was not in the village, otherwise he would not be able to escape death.

"Master, this... we went to Hujia Village the night before, but Hujia Village is full of fishermen. It is impossible for people from the Immortal Sect to kill the village leader... I don't know!"

"Hujia Village? Where is Hujia Village?"

"Master, Hujia Village is on the northwest shore of Taihu Lake."

"On the edge of Taihu Lake?"

Jiang Yong remembered something. A few days ago, many fishermen on the edge of Taihu Lake collectively wrote a letter saying that monsters appeared in the lake and dozens of people were eaten by monsters. He asked the government to send people to kill the monsters.

"Three teachers, let me lent these books first!"

Of course, Jiang Yong did not send anyone, so the soldiers in the county yamen were basically useless, and even more impossible for the fishermen to kill them.

Only practitioners can kill the lake monster, but it costs money to invite practitioners to take action. They will get ten thousand taels of silver at a time. How could he pay for such a thing that is useless to do?

In this world where immortals are rampant, Jiang Yong pursues the principle of personal interests first. If the immortals cannot afford to offend, then the interests must come from the mortals. Therefore, he and his nephew join forces to get money and everyone will be responsible for the action, and he will suppress the case, because if the prefecture knows that there are bandits committing murder, the prefect will send troops to attack, and there are practitioners among the prefectures.

This thing was originally done perfectly. His nephew was a practitioner. Even if it was just a state of fetal breathing, the practitioner was a practitioner, which was not something that ordinary people could deal with. Where can there be practitioners in the villages around Taihu Lake? But now he is dead and still being killed.
