From the first to the fourteenth day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Chen's life was completely disrupted.
Due to the large number of visitors, he was unable to spare much time for cultivation. He spent a lot of energy on socializing and socializing, and felt that his cultivation had deteriorated.
But this feeling is just Wang Chen's illusion.
He would be willing to do it again.
The reason is very simple, you are too soft to accept gifts!
Visitors come one after another.
As a foreign monk, although Wang Chen is a Purple Mansion monk, his influence will not extend beyond the village when he serves as the village chief of Datian Village.
Even if he stirs up troubles in Datian Village, it will be difficult for the news to reach the ears of the big shots in Wancheng City.
There are many Purple Mansion monks in Wancheng City, but what does a mere Rogue Cultivator with no foundation count?
But with the name "West Sea Sect inner disciple", Wang Chen's identity immediately became different, instantly surpassing the vast majority of the Purple Mansion.
Although he is still only a monk on the first level of the Purple Mansion.
This status gap is tantamount to the difference between heaven and earth!
Wang Chen took a final inventory. In the past ten days, the gifts he had received totaled hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones!
Among them, Song Clan and Fang Clan gave the most generous gifts, each worth more than 100,000 souls.
Wang Chen specially made a ledger and wrote down all the gift bill accounts.
Prepare for future return gifts.
He had never been the pedantic type to turn away an unexpected windfall.
But before leaving Datian Village, Wang Chen has one more thing to do.
That is to confirm the candidate for the successor!
Wang Chen has not been the village chief for a long time, but he has done a lot during this period.
For example, the establishment of Guard Team, the establishment of a private school, Five Guarantees Household and the work point system. These tangible and intangible new things have brought huge changes to Datian Village.
As the saying goes, once he leaves, whether these things can continue is undoubtedly a question.
Wang Chen doesn't want what he has spent so much time and effort to create to be ruined by others.
So he sent a letter Crane Message to Wancheng City Fang Clan, the head of the family Fang Hantao.
Fang Hantao is the county magistrate of Wancheng City. He assists the city lord/county magistrate in managing the political affairs of a county. He definitely has the power to appoint and remove a village chief.
Fang Hantao was also very happy to give face to Wang Chen, so the matter was quickly finalized.
"From now on Datian Village, I will leave everything to you."
Before leaving, Wang Chen said to the new village chief, "If you encounter a problem that cannot be solved, go to Fang Hantao Master Fang and he will help you."
The new village chief is Xiao Hong.
Xiao Hong has strong cultivation and is courageous and resolute. During his long tenure as Guard Team, he has won the support of all the team members.
The most important thing is that he is a villager with a foreign surname and has no problems with the three major surnames.
In addition, Xiao Hong supports the new system created by Wang Chen from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Wang Chen recommended him to serve as the new village chief of Datian Village.
Since the appointment was issued from Wancheng City, several elders in the village did not dare to have the slightest objection.
"Xiao Hong should do his best!"
Xiao Hong knelt down on one knee and saluted Wang Chen: "Sir, this is a great kindness, Xiao Hong will never forget it!"
Wang Chen saved his life.
During a hunting trip into the mountains, Xiao Hong accidentally encountered a ferocious Demon Beast. If Wang Chen hadn't promptly Make a Move, his ashes would have been buried in the dust.
"It's not that serious."
Wang Chen stretched out his hand to help him up. "I still have one more thing to ask of you."
Xiao Hong said quickly, "Please give me your instructions."
Wang Chen pointed to Xiao He standing aside. "Help me take care of Xiao He."
He went to the West Sea Sect Inner Sect with an uncertain future and another purpose, so it was impossible to bring Xiao He with him.
During this period of time, Xiao He has been serving Wang Chen carefully, with no credit but hard work.
Wang Chen doesn't want her life to be negatively affected after she leaves.
Entrusting it to Xiao Hong is undoubtedly the best choice.
"Please don't worry, sir!"
Xiao Hong patted her chest and promised, "I will take good care of Miss Xiao He like I would my own sister."
Wang Chen Xingran: "Good."
He took out a storage bag and handed it to the other party. "You and I are destined to meet each other. There are some things in there for cultivation and life-preservation. They are not worth many spiritual stones. Just take it and use it."
Xiao Hong did not refuse and took the storage bag with both hands. "Thank you for your generous gift!"
As soon as Xiao Hong left, Xiao He knelt down with a pop. "Sir, I don't want to leave you."
The girl knew very well that she would never be able to find a master as generous and kind as Wang Chen.
Wang Chen never regarded her as a slave, and gave her Foundation Establishment Pill to help her become a true monk.
It can be said that grace and re-creation!
"See you again if we are destined."
Wang Chen stretched out his hand to lift her up. "It's not that I'm heartless, it's just that when you get there, I won't be able to take care of you at all."
Xiao He wiped his tears and nodded silently.
She knew very well that her strength was low, and following Wang Chen to the West Sea Sect was not a way of ascending to heaven. She would most likely become a burden to the latter, so staying at Datian Village was the best choice.
Wang Chen touched her hair, and then gave the girl a storage bag. "Practice well."
After settling in Xiao He, Wang Chen no longer has any nostalgia for this place.
However, when he stepped out of the Village Chief's residence gate, he was surprised to find countless villagers standing darkly outside the gate and on both sides of the road.
These Datian Village villagers knew that Wang Chen was leaving today and came here specially to see him off.
The three elders came forward one after another and offered drinks.
"Sir, please drink this cup of Hundred Family Wine. I wish you can ascend to immortality as soon as possible and enjoy immortal blessings forever!"
The so-called Hundred Family Wine refers to the wine brewed with the rice grains of everyone in the village, which represents the most sincere blessings.
Although Wang Chen served as the village chief for a short time, these villagers felt real benefits.
They least want Wang Chen to leave.
Everyone looked at Wang Chen with hope and hope in their eyes.
"Thank you all!"
Wang Chen drank all three cups of Hundred Family Wine, then threw the cup and said, "Let's say goodbye!"
It is impossible to say that he had no feelings in his heart at this time.
But now Wang Chen has long been accustomed to separation.
He urged his magic power to fly into the air, and nodded to the villagers on the ground while suspended in the air.
Then it flew away in the direction of Wancheng City like an arrow from a string.
He disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
After Wang Chen left, the villagers jointly raised funds to erect a Law Artifact-level stone tablet for him, which was engraved with Wang Chen's deeds as village chief, as well as everyone's respect and gratitude to him.
As time goes by, hundreds of thousands of years later, Datian Village no longer exists, but this stone tablet is still standing quietly among the ruins of grass, indicating a past!
