I'm keeping an eye on you, but you keep an eye on the large group of people under your control. The people below are not following the rules. If I accidentally catch you and hear about it, I can't get angry with them, so I have to use you as a

ask.

This is a very clear context, telling a very simple truth.

Official experience, public practice,

Wherever there is no arena, there is no place where there is no officialdom.

Cui Dongshan took out a book. When the country was at its peak, Da Li compiled a golden and jade genealogy of the landscape gods of a continent, that is, a country, and divided them into nine ranks.

First, judging from the posture, it will always be in the air, because the Five Mountains, including Piyun Mountain, are only ranked second.

The position of Duke Dadu of Qidu is temporarily vacant, but the monks on the mountain know it well. Whether they choose only one, or choose two like Jidu in the north, they will be the second highest position.

The mountains of the Five Sacred Mountains rank third. Yanghua, the water god of the Tiefu River, is the only water god in the mainland of Dali who ranks third.

In addition, there is the Qiantang River located in the southeast of Yizhou, which is the place where the old Jiao practices Buddhism. It is located in Qiantang County and is called Fengshui Cave. There is also the Yongjiang River in the territory of the old Zhuying Dynasty. The "Shui Jing" compiled by the old immortal Li

There are clouds and water in all directions, which is called Yong.

Cui Dongshan and Jiang Shangzhen visited Bailudu in Zhengyang Mountain before and met a group of dragon breeders who had a close relationship with the Qiantang River.

Then there are the city gods of a country in the capitals of various countries, but their rankings are very different. The capital gods of the Great Li Dynasty ranked third, and the major vassal countries had four or five.

In a continent, there are not many landscape gods who can rank among the top three.

The Embroidered River Water God is four. The Chongdan River's Ye Zhuqing and the Yuye River Water God Li Jin are both only five.

The largest number of land public lands, Dipo and Hebo, are all in the lowest three. They are still under the jurisdiction of their superiors, the Mountain God and the River God. Promotion and demotion are still based on this path, but the county God's Temple and the Martial Temple all have the power of supervision.

, On the contrary, the gods of mountains and rivers also do the same to the city gods at all levels.

Jiang Shangzhen said with a smile: "It's a pity that Mr. Liu is not a Taoist."

Cui Dongshan said helplessly: "He even refused to try to become a god with the court, saying that a scholar like him can't stand the pain alone if he is scolded. He is like a broken man. He can hear it and infiltrate people. Rather than suffer a punishment and then disappear."

, it is better to close your eyes and let the sky darken, and your whole life will be ruined."

The person responsible for compiling the "family tree" of Yizhoushanhe for the Dali imperial court was none other than the Minister of Rites of the Capital of Dali, an old scholar named Liu Qingfeng.

It is rumored that this pioneering initiative of the Dali court has been approved by the temple sages and is very likely to be promoted throughout the world. No longer will each country in a continent do its own thing.

Within the territory, he was promoted at will and relegated to the position of landscape god.

The most important thing is that the moral merits of a landscape god will be an extremely critical item in the evaluation. Instead of just looking at the realm of the golden body, the vast territory under its jurisdiction, and the number of mountains.

In short, hills can be high and rivers can be low.

Moreover, the ranking of mountains and rivers is no longer a rule, so the gods of all parties cannot rest on their merits and enjoy their blessings.

Jiang Shangzhen said: "What a pity."

Cui Dongshan sighed and closed the book, "Mr. Liu will be an official all his life after he walks out of the study. He has been working hard and can rest."

Jiang Shangzhen asked curiously: "That thing you always wanted to tell your husband before? You still can't tell it now?"

Cui Dongshan shook his head, "I used to want to wait and see, but now it's no longer necessary."

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said: "Then I will drink more wine and listen to it."

Cui Dongshan nodded, "You and your husband met in Ouhua Blessed Land. My husband was not at a high level at the time. How do you feel about walking in a world surrounded by enemies on all sides?"

Jiang Shangzhen thought for a moment and said, "Be extremely careful and prudent."

Caution is the cause, prudence is the result.

Cui Dongshan sighed, "This is the first time Mr. left his hometown. So he always felt that as an uneducated person, he was so cautious when traveling far away for the first time and traveling in rivers and lakes. So what about other people? Rivers and lakes.

What about people with more experience, people who have read a lot of books?”

"So this leads to a result. In certain matters, Mr. Zheng is somewhat similar to Zheng Juzhong."

Jiang Shangzhen said suddenly: "Smart people can see clearly even good and evil, and can easily find out the context. They only look down on people who have brains but don't use them."

Jiang Shangzhen immediately changed his words: "It's not that I look down upon him, it's that I can't understand him."

Cui Dongshan shook his head, "I just look down on him. There is nothing to admit. It's just that Mr.'s behavior is still good-natured. The more pure and weak he is, the more willing he is to give pure goodwill. But during this period, it's like there is another Mr.

, watching from the sidelines, watching everything with cold eyes."

Jiang Shangzhen took a sip of his wine and said, "If this is put aside in theory, apart from stricter self-discipline, it is still easy to be demanding of good people and good deeds. Fortunately, Chen Ping'an only thinks so much and will not say or do anything to others. But in the long run, there are

questionable."

Cui Dongshan nodded and said: "Sir, he himself didn't realize this before. For example, deep down in his heart, he would naturally reject the chivalrous acts in romance novels, and even resent many seemingly chivalrous actions, because

He will feel that it is far from enough, and will leave many hidden dangers, and even a mess with a worse ending. Xiao Baoping and Pei Qian will watch it with gusto, but in Mr.'s opinion, even if they look over it, they will only feel...

…”

Jiang Shangzhen answered: "A house has air leakage from all sides, and it's freezing cold."

Cui Dongshan took a sip of wine, turned to look at the gray rain outside the shop, and murmured: "But, who told us that the hero has done a good deed, and he must do it to the end, and he must take care of the weak ones who have escaped for a long time.

?Is there such a truth? No. If everyone is like this, good people will become more and more hesitant, and good things will become more and more rare. This world is running according to its own laws, and everyone has his own path to take.

This is the way of the world. The old scholar said that the way of the world is the path we take, easy to walk and difficult to walk. Easy to walk is wrong, hard to walk is right. The so-called luck is the road under our feet is easy to walk and also difficult to walk.

Yes, the so-called misfortune means that it is difficult and wrong."

Cui Dongshan dipped his finger in the wine, drew four lines on the table, from low to high, and said in order: "Bad things, wrong things, no mistakes, good things. This is the matter in Mr.'s mind, the correct order of high and low."

Jiang Shangzhen glanced at it and sighed: "Chen Ping'an thought wrong. The word "no mistake" is much more difficult than a simple good thing."

Cui Dongshan nodded, "That's it."

There was silence between the two, Cui Dongshan did not drink, and asked softly: "Then why do you think so, sir?"

Jiang Shangzhen said: "Pessimistic."

Cui Dongshan nodded and said: "Sir, he traveled far away with hope, but he has always been pessimistic from a child to a teenager, and now. For all his dreams, he did not hesitate to work hard for them, and he never spared any effort, but

I know, in my husband’s mind, he has always been like building a snowman in summer.”

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and asked, "Why don't you need to say it now?"

Cui Dongshan stretched out two fingers and gently twirled the wine bowl, "It's very simple. Now, sir, I am both physically and mentally free. I can finally have a lot of time to rest at home, travel far away, and return home leisurely."

Jiang Shangzhen shook his head and said: "Leisurely? Not necessarily. Just the selection of the location for the next sect requires a lot of things. There are many things that need to be checked by him personally."

Cui Dongshan sighed, patted his abacus, "For example, if you, the owner of Yunku Blessed Land, come here to be the shopkeeper, even if the shop is crowded every day, will your mind be free?"

Jiang Shangzhen nodded, "This makes sense."

Cui Dongshan left the girl Peanut in Caotou Shop.

There are only two New Year's Eve shops next door to Qilong Lane. Shi Rou, the acting shopkeeper, and the little mute named Zhou Junchen, who works as a handyman, are nimble and withdrawn children. Even with Master Pei Qian, there is no one.

He has a smiling face, but he gets along very well with Shi Rou.

Cui Dongshan came here from the Caotou shop and leaned on the counter to look through the account books. The New Year's Eve shop, which sells pastries, is better here. In Jia Laoshenxian's Caotou shop, it is estimated that in half a year, not even one page of the account books will be filled.

But I really don’t blame the old god for being incompetent. The main reason is that the fight is at the top of his own mountain. The Baofengzhai shop at Niujiaoshan Ferry and the grass-head shop opened in the alley of the town do not occupy any space at all, and the display goods on the shelves in the shop are not at all

, there is no possibility of picking up leaks. The immortal masters who come to visit this town mostly drink wine from Huang Si’s family, eat cakes from Qilong Lane, and look at the school run by Chen’s family in Longwei River.

Taoye Lane, where Jun Xieshi is located, must be visited, as well as Erlang Lane, where the Yuan family's ancestral home is located, and Muping Lane, where the Cao family's ancestral home is located...

Regarding this matter, Luopo Mountain actually has some ideas. They are thinking about saying hello to the county magistrate's office and Huaihuang County Government, and sealing off the Mubo Lane where the ancestral home of the mountain owner is located, so that the people of the town can

It doesn't matter if you are passing by, the Immortal Master on the mountain should not walk around at will. However, Chen Ping'an did not agree, so the matter was settled.

Cui Dongshan tapped the account book with his fingers, raised his head, and shouted: "Shopkeeper Shi."

Shi Rou said in a trembling voice: "Here."

Cui Dongshan clicked his tongue and said: "Twenty years have passed. Shopkeeper Shi has worked hard from dawn to dusk. He can be said to have a good way of making money. He has actually helped us Luo Po Shan earn so much money."

In fact, the shop seems to be doing well every day, but after all, it only sells pastries, how much money can it make? When it comes to making money, it is far inferior to the neighbor next door.

Cui Dongshan looked at the frightened Shi Rou, closed the account book, and said with a smile: "Every word is sincere, every word is kind, and I didn't talk to you in a weird way. Why, is there something wrong in my heart?"

A pun.

Shi Rou didn't dare to talk back. She was most afraid of this person in a desolate mountain.

The little mute was not afraid of the big white goose at all. It was rare for him to speak. He spoke hoarsely, with a voice honed by sandstone, "Shopkeeper Shi has a clear conscience when doing business. I don't blame the shop for making little money. I blame the pastry for not being able to sell it at a high price. If you...

If you don’t think the money is enough, I’ll exchange it for something and sell it.”

Shi Rou wanted to pull the little mute behind her quickly, but unexpectedly she failed to do so. The little mute didn't move at all, and instead reached out to grab Shi Rou's arm.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "Who are you? Did I ask you a question?"

The little mute raised his head and said: "Zhou Junchen, disciple Pei Qian, do you know now?"

Immortal Jia was originally squatting at the door of the shop to watch the excitement. Now he heard the little brat's reckless thimble and became a little anxious. He quickly waved his hand to signal the child to stop saying a few words.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said nothing, rubbing his chin with his fingers.

The little mute said: "If you are a man and you have the ability, come to me alone and don't involve shopkeeper Shi. Anyway, if anyone is unreasonable and secretly gives us little shoes to wear, I will take the shoes and go to the master to complain."
