316 Subpoena(1/2)
In the City God's Temple of Daming Prefecture, at night, when the Gou Si people are working, ghost soldiers and ghost soldiers come and go between the two realms, while the Erba God is patrolling the local area. The most leisurely person is probably the City God who sits in the main hall of the City God's Temple.
There is usually an offering at the end of the first year and the beginning of February, but this year there is obviously much less incense.
There were six seals and nine seals in previous years, but this year there were only three. This made the City God a little worried, fearing that he had done something wrong and the local people had. Resentment.
Today is different from the past. There is no King of Hell in the underworld now, and there is no certainty when the nine kings will come back.
Especially after King Wei killed all the five hell kings, King Qin Guang, who originally planned to return to the underworld at the end of the month, told his son, the judge, that he would discuss it with his friends for several years...
In a few years, the underworld will probably look different.
"Sigh... Could it be that I made some judgment that was inconsiderate of the people's sentiments?"
"No……"
I looked through the files over and over again, and all the backlogged cases from last year were checked off.
Unjust, false and wrongly convicted cases are also brought back for retrial.
Some of the things that were misjudged as evil were re-examined and classified as good again.
No matter how you look at it, there is no place where you are not doing your job well?
Why don't the people appreciate it?
"Master, did something unpleasant happen to you today?"
After closing the book of life and death, the local judge saw his immediate superior sighing, putting down his work, and then asked with concern.
"This year's incense, the local people in Daming Prefecture paid three seals. Although there are cattle, sheep and pigs, the pig's head is thin, the cow's head is old, and the sheep's head is very woody. I'm afraid the people have no complaints against me. "
"ah?"
The judge was stunned and said, "My lord, is this the same here?"
"How to say?"
When the subordinate officer asked this question, the City God was stunned and asked back.
"Sir, when I was working in front of me, the seven or eight earth temples didn't even have steamed buns this year, only pickled steamed buns. The local lake god and river god only had half a chicken, and even the pork with hair on it was gone. .”
The words made the City God stunned for a moment, and the judge quickly said, "My lord, I'm afraid it's not that there's something wrong with the local harvest, or that the people don't want to, or that there isn't."
"Last year I checked with the immortals in the heavens and found that the weather will be good this year."
"Ah? Then what's going on? If you didn't have a lot of money, you wouldn't be so picky. Not to mention pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep, just two white-flour steamed buns, that's not much."
"Well... you're right, I have to inquire about this matter."
The City God felt there was a problem here, but after all, he didn't care about the affairs of the world, so he could only give the local magistrate a dream and talk about it.
Just as he was about to do this, he saw footsteps coming outside the Chenghuang Temple. Who would come to the Chenghuang Temple this late at night?
But he saw a slovenly Taoist, wearing tattered reed shoes, walking in with his head shaking. He saluted the statue, then picked up the offerings on the table and took a bite.
"Wei Linggong, Taoist priest, I'm here to ask you for a favor. Can I give Wei Xiang a dream and a message?"
After the sloppy Taoist said this, the statue suddenly moved and a shadow came out. Then the shadow slowly fell to the ground and turned into reality. It was "Inspection of Simin City God Wei Linggong".
"who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, Taoist priest. As long as I send a message to Wei Xiangxiang and say 'Sixth Level Earth Immortal', he will understand..."
The Taoist priest sat down on the altar table, picked up the cake and ate it, and said as he gnawed, "Wei Linggong is in the second rank, and the underworld is unobstructed. If you can't entrust Wei Lingxiang with your dream, please go back and forth between Yin and Yang, send a message through the underworld, and inform Wei Xiangxiang. "
"What do you want to tell the king?"
"King?!"
Hearing this title, the sloppy Taoist was shocked and said, "It's true."
"snort!"
The City God snorted coldly and was very dissatisfied with this guy who broke into the City God's Temple in the middle of the night.
"Wei Linggong, please tell Wei Xiangxiang that the water veins in Daming Prefecture are cut off, and there may be a severe drought in the next few years. If he has a way, please slay the demons."
"What?! The water veins are cut off?!"
The City God was shocked and furious, "Da Ming Prefecture is the ancestral home of the Suiren family. How can the water veins be cut off?"
"You can't talk nonsense about this matter. It's better that Duke Wei Ling doesn't know about it."
Then the sloppy Taoist reminded the City God, "Wei Linggong should hurry up, otherwise Wei Xiangxiang is no longer in the world, and it will be difficult to find him again."
"Not in the human world?"
I felt like I heard something I shouldn't have heard. The City God knew that if this was true, something big would happen.
I think at the beginning, they were all second-grade city gods, the city gods of Dachaozhou, but now even their names have been erased.
This is not something you can erase by yourself, but the highest punishment you can give after making a big mistake.
The City God of Dachaozhou, no matter how many descendants he originally had and who were proud of him, will eventually be forgotten by future generations.
Completely forgotten, as if I never knew there was such an ancestor.
At that moment, the City God hurriedly asked: "Do you have any proof?"
"I'm not leaving now, Taoist priest. Wei Linggong can ask the God of Cows and Horses to keep an eye on me, so as not to suspect that I'm a Taoist priest and I'm here for entertainment in the middle of the night..."
"good!"
Of course, the City God was not unambiguous. He summoned the civil and military judges and the great gods of cattle and horses, and sent two groups of ghost soldiers to surround the sloppy Taoist and keep him under strict supervision.
He himself held the official seal and fled to the underworld in an instant, then went straight to Qin Guangcheng and spread the word.
If dreams don't work, he has already tried.
In Qin Guang City, the One-Horned Ghost King was taking a rest tonight. After hearing the noise outside, he was suddenly startled and said quickly: "I know the way, let me go!"
Then he ordered his troops and horses, and without stopping, arrived at Wuwen County, Taiyang Prefecture before sunrise.
At this time, there were no longer any major projects in the county.
The reconstruction work of Wuwen County has also come to a standstill. It is obvious that Wei Hao's deterrent effect in killing the "Sun Moon Divine Sword Sect" is not noticed by the people in the world, but the "Dong Bohou" Hou Mansion is extremely afraid of it.
.
This kind of tough guy is really not easy to mess with.
There was no other way. Although the "Dongbohou" Hou Mansion did not openly admit that it was giving up, the wages owed in arrears were all paid.
Coupled with the pension and compensation, the people of "Dingjianao" are very happy.
In fact, when people from the "Dong Bohou" Hou Mansion came to give money, they did not mention Wei Hao at all, so the families of the miners in "Dingjianao" had no idea the reason was because of Wei Hao.
They all just thought that "Dong Bohou" was a kind-hearted prince who did not want to see the suffering of the people under his rule.
"Dong Bohou" was deceived by the villain below. The Marquis had no idea what happened in Wuwen County. Now that he knows, he will naturally investigate it thoroughly and pay compensation in full.
For a time, "Dong Bohou"'s reputation in Wuwen County was surprisingly good.
"It's really abominable that the people of 'Dingjianao' are actually grateful to the people of 'Dongbohou' mansion! Gentleman, if it weren't for you, 'Dongbohou' would have made 'Dingjianao' homeless!"
"What are you in a hurry for?"
After patting the dog's head lightly and then rubbing it, Wei Hao said, "Let me ask you, has 'Dong Bohou' compensated you?"
"I gave you money, but this statement is wrong. The fault is all the fault of the people below, and he, 'Dong Bohou', knows nothing about it. It's simply bastard talk!"
"You are used to such official tactics, why are you so angry now?"
"I can't be more angry!"
Gouzi grinned, "How many people are there in the two mines, and so many people died. If the gentleman hadn't destroyed the 'Sun Moon Divine Sword Sect' and frightened 'Dong Bohou', how easy would it be to talk?"
"Yes, I have a knife in my hand. Is this to make people talk better?"
Wei Hao smiled and touched Wang Zhaixing's head, "The people of Dingjianao are grateful, but they were deceived, but the result is okay, that's fine. If the truth is told, do you think Ding
What do the people of Jia Nao dare to do to Dong Bohou? Can I always stay in Wuwen County?"
"Just forget it?"
"Don't be hasty. The struggle is long-term and long-lasting. Even if we firmly believe that victory will come, the process may be very tortuous and the struggle may be fierce and complicated. Just from the people of 'Dingjianao'
If they can get compensation now, it's already good. The truth is not important. Sometimes, for the weak...ignorance is bliss."
"..."
The dog still can't accept it, but he recognizes this sentence.
It's okay for the weak not to know the truth. Once they know it, they can't resist. The torment, pain and even extra fear will only make them despair.
It's better not to know.
"The gentleman is kinder."
"I've always been a good person in Wufeng County!"
"..."
"Hahahahahaha..."
To be continued...
