296. The Origin of the Merit Book
Old Liu and the bald old Yao came out of the backyard at three o'clock in the morning.
Looking at the misty white mist that gradually dissipated, Chen Youcai hurriedly followed Lu Ningxiang and the others to surround them, staring nervously at the two embarrassed figures.
"Don't look at it, he has become an evil saint, we have fallen short tonight... I will be busy in the future."
Old Liu Tou shook his head dejectedly, pushed the cattail leaf fan back, and waved to the bald old Yao beside him: "Don't go back to the underground palace either, I will need your help in the future."
"Okay, I'll deal with some mundane matters first, and if necessary, just call me."
The bald old Yao nodded solemnly, then smiled at everyone, and then walked slowly into the dark night in the corner of the courtyard, his figure gradually disappeared, and then disappeared.
"..."
Rao Chen Youcai was used to seeing all kinds of differences between meritorious messengers, so he couldn't help but click his tongue secretly with such a mysterious method.
"You stay and clean up the mess, I have to go back and contact the Quartet, and prepare to fight the comeback of the evil punishment path."
Old Liu gave some instructions, and when he saw Chen Youcai who was hesitating to speak, he waved to him and signaled him to go out of the courtyard together.
"Ask whatever you want. Doom is coming. As a messenger of merit, you can't escape no matter what."
The two walked one after the other. After the old Liu sighed, Chen Youcai hesitated for a while, and finally asked the biggest confusion in his heart.
"I would like to ask Mr. Liu to explain, what exactly is the merit book?"
This thing exists in the mind, not a real thing, but more like a spiritual body that I imagined... But it can be exchanged for various merits and props!
Such a peculiarity really made Chen Youcai want to break his head, but he couldn't figure out the key point.
"The computer system knows it. You can regard the merit book as a special system specially applied to the human brain."
Old Liu stopped, took out a pack of cigarettes out of nowhere, took one in his mouth, but didn't light it.
He stared at the faint night sky and said: "The development of this system is the method proposed by the first generation of sages of Shanshang Dao, and then through the subsequent sages, they continued to improve its functions with great supernatural powers."
"To put it simply, it is not only a training book for cultivating the growth of meritorious messengers, but also a scoring book for supervising us."
"The mysteries of the human body are beyond myriad. Ordinary people cannot activate supernatural powers throughout their lives, but high-level merit messengers can help mortals 'attest', just like installing an operating system on a new computer..."
Chen Youcai half-understood what he heard, and couldn't help asking: "What about the exchange shop in the merit book, does it really exist?"
"The exchange store is like online shopping, except that all demands will be transmitted to the terminal of Shanshangdao."
Speaking of this, Old Liu couldn't help but feel a little proud, and said with a smile: "The times are advancing. Although ordinary people have not been able to cultivate supernatural powers, they have found another way and opened up the way of technology."
"And we are also learning from each other's strengths, imitating the principle of online shopping, and creating an instant and direct 'transmission matrix'."
"To put it simply, after your merit book is awakened, you have established a teleportation array channel with the terminal in the base of Shanshang Dao."
"Once you receive a meritorious task, or need to exchange some items, you can send it directly from the terminal..."
"Of course, this super powerful transmission channel can only transmit some gadgets right now."
"Too much quantity, or too large mass and volume will consume too much energy, and it will not reach the corresponding technical level for the time being."
Hearing these words, Chen Youcai was dumbfounded. If he hadn't known that Old Liu was a genuine messenger of merit, he would almost have thought that the other party was a computer teacher.
"Does it feel great?"
Seeing that Chen Youcai opened his mouth and remained silent for a long time, Old Liu waved his hands and said, "These are actually nothing. Our greatest strength lies in..."
Seemingly realizing that he was talking too much, Old Liu closed his mouth in time and patted Chen Youcai on the shoulder.
"Let's go home now while we're free. It won't be long. I'm afraid no one will be able to be so leisurely."
After saying this, without waiting for Chen Youcai to react, he took a single step forward and disappeared into the night sky suddenly.
"..."
Chen Youcai stared blankly at the direction where Old Liu's head disappeared, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He immediately took a deep breath, returned to the yard, and prepared to say goodbye to Lu Ningxiang.
"Take care of yourself. I still have tasks here. When I am free, I will go to Chenjia Village to visit you."
In the backyard, Chen Youcai couldn't help turning pale as he looked at the messy ground, and gasped.
The originally exquisite pavilions and pavilions were all razed to the ground at the moment, as if they had just encountered a huge storm.
Lu Ningxiang was instructing the others to clean up the scene. Seeing Chen Youcai coming over, she chatted briefly and then went back to work.
"Okay, call if anything happens."
Seeing that everyone was busy all the time, Chen Youcai didn't want to disturb him too much, so he greeted Captain Long and the others, and left alone.
The sky has already turned pale, and I believe it won't be long before dawn... This thrilling night can be regarded as the end of the story.
After leaving the old house, the officials who were armed with live ammunition seemed to have been instructed, and did not make things difficult for Chen Youcai, and let him leave on his own, without stopping him.
Chen Youcai asked an ambulance driver not far away where the previous ambulances were going, then walked to the street, stopped a taxi, and went straight to a nearby public hospital.
Those Boss Dai and others who were stunned by the Special Forces were all sent to the inpatient department of the hospital.
Chen Youcai asked the nurse for the ward number, and hurried upstairs, seeing Boss Dai and Shen Junhu with ruddy complexions, he was finally secretly relieved.
Speaking of which, these two people suffered two unreasonable disasters because of him... Chen Youcai walked into the ward with guilt, and greeted the two of them with a smile.
"It's really bad luck for eight lifetimes. I encountered an earthquake during the day and drank fake wine at night, so I didn't burp..."
Boss Dai held his dizzy head and complained persistently: "In two days, I really have to go to the temple to burn incense and ask the Buddha to bless him."
"You still have the face to say, where did those fake wines come from?"
Shen Junhu rubbed his temples, and rolled his eyes angrily: "I'm a shipwreck in the gutter today, and it's the first time I've been admitted to the hospital for drinking fake wine!"
"Hmph, look at the talented young man, he also drinks a lot, why is there nothing wrong with him now?"
Boss Dai squinted at Shen Junhu, and said with a strange smile: "Huzi, I think you are also a silver gun candle head, and a few bottles of fake wine were knocked down, thanks to your bragging about how powerful you are."
Mentioning this, Shen Junhu also came to his senses, and couldn't help staring at Chen Youcai with some doubts: "That's right, you talented brother, what's wrong with you?"
"I...maybe I vomited while drinking, and there is nothing left in my stomach."
Chen Youcai smiled calmly, and said, "I asked the doctor just now, and you are fine, and you will be discharged from the hospital at dawn."
"I still have some urgent matters to deal with in Chenjiacun, so I have to go back first..."
"In such a hurry to go back?"
Boss Dai was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but exchanged glances with Shen Junhu. After talking for a long time, Chen Youcai insisted on going home, and the two had no choice but to give up the idea of staying.
"Okay, when Brother Youcai is done with his work, remember to come back and see me, a loner... As for the matter you mentioned, I will definitely help you do it beautifully!"
The two sent Chen Youcai downstairs to the hospital. Before leaving, Boss Dai patted his chest and solemnly promised Chen Youcai.
