Chapter 263 Waist Badge

After the interrogation, the bald monk was taken away and sent to the Taoist prison.

Mo Hua asked Zhang Lan: "Uncle Zhang, is the bald monk telling the truth?"

Zhang Lan hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "The first part is true, but the latter part is unclear. It is probably half true and half false. This man is cunning and his words cannot be trusted."

Mo Hua nodded.

He must have concealed something about the map.

But there are too few clues about what the map is related to, and Mo Hua has no idea.

"Why don't you ask the one-eyed monk?" Mo Hua said again.

He remembered that there was another one-eyed monk among the criminals, who was a leader and might know more.

"Okay, I will interrogate him when I have time. You can go back first. This torture chamber is not a good place."

After Zhang Lan finished speaking, he fanned his nose, as if he wanted to fan away the fishy smell.

"Yeah."

Mo Hua also felt that the smell here was unpleasant and would feel depressed if he stayed for a long time, so he prepared to leave.

Zhang Lan suddenly said, "I'll find you in a few days."

Mo Hua turned around, a little confused, "Why are you looking for me?"

"Did you forget?" Zhang Lan blinked at Mo Hua, "We agreed that if you catch the bald monk, Dao Tingsi will give you benefits."

Mo Hua's eyes lit up, "What benefits?"

"You'll know in a few days."

Zhang Lan was still keeping it a secret.

A few days later, Zhang Lan really found Mo Hua and handed him a brocade bag.

Mo Hua opened it and saw a bronze plate in the bag.

The material was not expensive, nor did it look like a spiritual weapon. The style looked a bit simple, even clumsy, and dull.

"That's it?" Mo Hua was a little disappointed.

He thought Dao Tingsi would give some magic, skills, elixir, or formation.

Zhang Lan said unhappily, "What do you mean by that? Do you know what this is?"

Mo Hua shook his head.

"This is the badge of the Daoting Division!"

Mo Hua opened his mouth wide, "Don't the monks of the Daoting Division have official badges?"

"Yes." Zhang Lan nodded, "So yours is not official."

Mo Hua was stunned, "Fake?"

Zhang Lan sighed, "Out-of-official."

"Oh." Mo Hua understood.

The official monks of the Daoting Division, from the lower-level executives and managers to the upper-level deputy managers and managers, must be assessed before they can be hired.

The assessment is very strict, with many categories, including spiritual roots, skills, martial arts or magic, family background, criminal records, whether there are direct blood relatives in prison within three generations, etc.

These are all the contents of the Daoting Division's investigation.

To pass the assessment, it is not only one in a thousand, but also one in a hundred.

In addition to the assessment, there are all kinds of complicated relationships between monks and connections in secret.

Mo Hua wants to pass the assessment and become a cultivator of the Dao Ting Division, even if it is just a division, it is probably not easy.

Now it is not bad to be able to get a non-staff status.

"What is the difference between non-staff and formal?" Mo Hua asked.

Zhang Lan explained: "Non-staff means outside the establishment. You can help the Dao Ting Division to do things in exchange for merits, and exchange for spiritual stones, exercises, spells, spiritual tools and formations and other cultivation materials."

"But without the establishment of the Dao Ting Division, you can't be promoted, and you don't have any authority. The treatment is not comparable to that of normal Dao Ting Division cultivators."

"Oh." Mo Hua nodded, "On the surface, it's a job, but in fact it's a part-time job."

Zhang Lan snorted, "There are many cultivators who want this, but they don't have a way."

Mo Hua leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Is this waist badge so good?"

Zhang Lan pointed at the waist badge in Mo Hua's hand, "For others, this may only be used to get a job. , have a meal to eat. But you are different, you are a formation master, you don't rely on this to make a living, but you can use this to fleece Dao Tingsi. "

Mo Hua whispered: "Uncle Zhang, you are also a member of Dao Tingsi, it's not good to encourage me to fleece Dao Tingsi..."

Zhang Lan glared at Mo Hua, "I didn't encourage you."

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

Zhang Lan was a little helpless, "Dao Ting unified the cultivation world, with countless resources, and the Dao Tingsi under it is also a big family. You can fleece Dao Tingsi, it's your own ability."

At least you are the only one in Tongxian City who can make the chief secretary take the initiative to send a waist card...

Zhang Lan thought silently.

Mo Hua thought about it and asked curiously: "How to fleece this?"

It is said to be the waist card of Dao Tingsi, but there are only some simple patterns on it, and there is no engraving. It looks like an ordinary copper plate, and there is nothing special.

Even if Zhang Lan said that he could fleece, Mo Hua didn't know how to fleece.

After asking, Mo Hua felt that it was not very good to always ask Zhang Lan things like this, so he patted his chest and said generously:

"You can eat and drink today, I will pay the bill."

The restaurant is owned by his family anyway.

Zhang Lan laughed, shook his head, and said to Mo Hua:

"You helped the Daoting Division. If you didn't have this badge, it would only be considered a favor. Favors can be light or heavy, and may not be taken seriously."

"But with the badge, it can be recorded as merit, and merit can be exchanged for spiritual stones, elixirs, and spiritual tools."

"For example, if you help us catch the bald monk, and we catch him, it will be considered a favor from you. The chief and I know about this, but other cultivators don't know and may not recognize it."

"Now that I have the badge, this favor can be considered a merit, approved by the chief, and recorded in the merit book. This is a real merit. After it is made public, others will not be able to see it. I can't deny it."

Mo Hua roughly understood it and asked, "How are the merits calculated?"

Zhang Lan took a sip of tea and continued:

"First, it is divided by grade. You are in the Qi Refining Stage, so the merits are only of the first grade."

"Second, it is divided into four grades according to the size of the merits, A, B, C, and D. The merits of different grades can be exchanged for different things, but there are also shares."

"You helped to capture the bald monk this time, and the chief officer recorded you as 'B' grade. If you exchange it for spirit stones, you will get about one thousand."

"So many?" Mo Hua was surprised.

There are more than twenty people who captured the bald monk, and Mo Hua alone can get one thousand spirit stones.

"This is only calculated based on merits. There are also some other rewards, and the sum of miscellaneous items is not small."

"Is the bald monk so valuable? If we catch a few more, wouldn't we make a fortune?"

"What are you thinking?" Zhang Lan gently rubbed Mo Hua's head, "Do you think the bald monk is a carrot head? Catch as many as you want."

Mo Hua thought about it and nodded.

That's right, in that group of sinners, the bald monk is at least a "big brother".

Even if he is a carrot, he is the biggest one.

"But this merit is best saved for later use. It's a bit of a waste to exchange it for spirit stones." Zhang Lan added.

"Is there anything special about this?"

"The Daotingsi is backed by the Daoting, whose heritage and resources are profound. The things used as rewards may not be the most precious, but they are the most complete."

Zhang Lan patiently explained, "Whether it is cultivation or drawing formations, it is inevitable that you will encounter some rare things in the future, although they are not precious. You have spiritual stones but nowhere to buy them. This situation is the most difficult."

"And you have this waist card, you can directly exchange it from the Daotingsi warehouse, which will save a lot of trouble."

Mo Hua listened and nodded repeatedly.

If Zhang Lan hadn't pointed out this kind of thing, he really wouldn't have known about it.

Then Mo Hua was a little worried, "After I got this waist card, do I have to obey the orders of the Daotingsi?"

He didn't want to become a "running dog of the Daotingsi" one day and only be able to do things under the instructions of the Daotingsi.

"Don't worry." Zhang Lan raised his eyebrows at Mo Hua, "This is another advantage of this bronze waist badge, you can obey orders but not announcements."

"Daotingsi has the right to call you, but it doesn't really have the power to command you. As long as you don't rely on this job to make a living, at most you can throw away the waist badge and quit. No one can do anything to you."

"Is this 'no desire makes you strong'?"

Zhang Lan pondered for a while and nodded, "I guess so. As long as you don't try to be mean and think about scheming, it's actually very easy."

Mo Hua was relieved.

He is a formation master, and he really doesn't rely on this to make a living. This waist badge is just for taking advantage of others.

Then Mo Hua sighed, "My identity is a bit complicated now."

He is mainly a formation master, then a demon hunter, and now he is still a little rascal who takes advantage of Daotingsi.
