Chapter 972 Coming

These two people are not ordinary powerful people, or it can be said that they are not powerful people passing by, but they want to interfere in Linjiang City.

Er Mang sighed, but he did not reject the two of them.

"Didn't a lot of people die during the river god's sacrifice?" Wei Yaoqing said.

Er Mang nodded: "At least there are dozens of them." This is also the reason why he does not reject it. If there is really a "river god" or something, then please invite the heavenly masters from the Yin and Yang Division in the capital to come and take a look. If not, then

Let's find out who is behind the scenes. The government said that it was people who were pretending, but they couldn't find out anything. Such an act of obvious disbelief without finding out the reason only made everyone believe that "He"

"God" was at work, but it was because of the government's attitude that they didn't invite anyone to come and take a look.

"The county magistrate doesn't allow it, but those of you who are doing business on the river haven't invited some charlatans to come over and have a look?" Wei Yaoqing said.

Er Mang sighed repeatedly: "Although I haven't looked for it, the boss of Youzhou did invite a well-known warlock from other places, but the warlock only came here one night and was going to see what happened the next morning.

Early in the morning, he was sent back by the River God. Because of this, people who were originally doubtful about this matter now believe that the 'River God' is causing trouble."

The "send back" he said should refer to the kind where the hands and legs were tied to a wooden carrier and sent back. Wei Yaoqing nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"After all, we in Linjiang City rely on mountains and rivers to survive. We have relied on Linjiang River for several lifetimes. I have never heard of such a thing. When it suddenly appeared, I didn't believe it at first." Er Mang said, "Look at this river.

God is so powerful, I'm a little scared."

It's scary, but things are going to continue. This time, he forgot to offer sacrifices when he was traveling, and a boatman died. This made Ermang, who had some doubts about the "River God", completely believe in the existence of the "River God".

.

"Then let's talk about our Lord Lin!" Wei Yaoqing did not continue to ask questions on this matter, but turned the topic to Lin Shitong, "What kind of person do you think Lord Lin is?"

"It's nothing special. Nothing major happens in our place on weekdays. What happens is just trivial things." Er Mang said, "Mr. Lin is not a corrupt official, but he is not a powerful official."

"Moderate." Pei Zongzhi spat out two words from the side.

Er Mang nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, it means moderation."

"When was Master Lin's house built?"

"After we're here!" Er Mang thought for a while and said, "I didn't pay attention either."

"The door of his house is in a different position from the doors of other houses, and you didn't notice?" Wei Yaoqing glanced at him and asked.

Er Mang laughed twice and said, "It won't bother others. Mr. Lin likes it, so can I take care of it? I heard that Mr. Lin moved the place where the county government handles cases in the backyard for the convenience of him to come in and out.

position."

"Where's the red lantern?" Wei Yaoqing asked again.

Er Mang didn't know what was going on. He felt a thin layer of sweat break out on his forehead. It wasn't that he was feeling guilty. It was just that the girl asked questions so quickly. It seemed like she was banging her head here and there, but every time she asked something, she didn't know why.

After thinking about it deeply, I always felt that something was not quite right. This something was not quite right and it revolved around Mr. Lin. Could it be that I wanted to do something about Mr. Lin?

Er Mang was frightened and did not dare to hide anything, so he hurriedly said: "It was done after the River God incident came out. After all, there is no reason for the River God to offer sacrifices to the dead. I don't know who said it was done afterward."

Lanterns are used to ward off evil spirits, and the word spreads faster and faster, and red lanterns are not worth much. Even the county government and Mr. Lin's house have hung them up, so everyone has hung them up."

Wei Yaoqing laughed: "Did you ward off evil spirits?"

Er Mang said: "There are still one or two unlucky ones who died. Hanging a lantern won't hurt anything, so just let them go." After a pause, Er Mang said again, "Other than that, it seems like there is nothing to do with it.

The county magistrate is concerned."

Wei Yaoqing only said, "I'll call him again if something happens" and let him go.

The rain kept falling, and towards evening, Lao Xiangtai's steward knocked on their cabin door again, and after saluting, he said: "Great Heavenly Master, people are here, do you want to take a look?"

Before she agreed, Pei Zongzhi took out an oil-paper umbrella from his baggage, opened it and took her out.

Following Lao Xiangtai's steward, he walked to the deck. In the hazy drizzle, a ship no less big than the Juque was approaching.

"This is a cargo ship that my Xie family transferred from elsewhere. The boatmen and merchants who put it on are all our people."

Wei Yaoqing looked up at the pot-bellied steward and praised: "Thank you, old man, for your great work!"

The steward smiled and touched his belly and said, "I have been told by the superiors to cooperate with the Great Heavenly Master in doing things. Just ask the Great Heavenly Master."

The river was rippled by the rain. The Linjiang River in the rain was quite as beautiful as the misty rain of Qinhuai. She glanced at Pei Zongzhi beside her and silently withdrew her gaze. No longer interested in appreciating the beautiful scenery on the Linjiang River, she looked at the search.

The cargo ship was heading this way, and as the two ships got closer and closer, the figures standing on the bow holding oil umbrellas became clearer and clearer.

At a glance, I found two familiar shadows.

Cui Jing and Wang Xu.

After being stunned for a moment, Wei Yaoqing understood. It seemed that Anle lacked manpower. Last time, the incident in Jinan tasted the sweetness, but this time the same trick was repeated.

Wei Yaoqing raised her hand and waved to the two of them.

The two people did not wave to her. She looked at Pei Zongzhidao beside her: "Why are you from the Cui Wang clan and don't know how to return the greeting? It's really rude, isn't it?"

The smile on the face of Lao Xiangtai's steward paused for a moment, and then became brighter: The Xie family is still very polite in their work, and they can't make any mistakes.

Pei Zong said: "Maybe he can't see." Cui Jing and Wang Xu didn't have any internal strength, so their eyesight was far inferior to them.

"Forget it, I don't remember the faults of villains." Wei Yaoqing stood on the deck with her hands behind her hands and watched the ship approaching. When Lao Xiangtai's steward raised his hand to salute, he turned to those standing

The people on the deck who saluted her nodded.

The adults standing on the deck were all dressed like wealthy merchants, especially Cui Jing and Wang Xu who stood out the most.

When the two ships were parallel, Wang Xu walked to the position directly opposite her and said: "I thought I wouldn't see you for a while, but I didn't expect to see you again." There was a bit of helplessness in his tone. She had only been away for a few days.

No wonder her grandfather scolded her before he left, "The Great Celestial Master is the Great Celestial Master, he really has a lot of things to do!", and whenever something happened, it was usually not a trivial matter.

"I didn't know that His Majesty invited you over." Wei Yaoqing spread her hands innocently, paused, but also smiled, looking very satisfied, "But inviting you people over also makes me feel relieved.

"

"Don't worry, Wang Situ is worried. Let us stay away from you." Cui Jing suddenly said.

Wei Yaoqing didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang has always been so duplicitous, I understand."

Lao Xiangtai's steward turned his head to the side, not daring to let her see the smile on his face: the boss specifically mentioned in the letter that Mrs. Wang said that although the great heavenly master was young, he was not thin-skinned, and now he is really
