"Who is it? How dare you break into the saint's place!"

Jiang Zhou opened the door directly and did not hide his whereabouts.

In the tribute courtyard, a shout came.

"Tianbohou?"

But it was an old official, holding a lamp.

This Gongyuan was originally guarded by directly affiliated soldiers.

However, Jiangdu suffered a series of changes, and many places were empty.

In this tribute courtyard, there is only this old official left to look after it.

He raised the lamp, illuminated the face of the visitor, and recognized Jiang Zhou's identity.

He was startled and hurriedly saluted: "I'm here to see Tianbohou."

"No need to be polite."

Jiang Zhou waved his hand, looked him over and said, "Are you a scribe here? How long have you been here?"

"Back to Tianbo Hou, the old man is the clerk of Gongyuan. He usually sorts out documents and cleans the spiritual tablets here, but he has never left for half his life."

"Anthracene?"

Jiang Zhou was slightly surprised: "You have been here all this time? Are you alone?"

The old official sighed: "It's not that there is only one subordinate. In the past, there was one chief official, three assistants, six secretaries, and fifty soldiers in the Gongyuan. However... The Marquis should know that there was a war in Southern Chu.

Although I dare not harm the place of saints, people are not tolerant, and now the only people left are officials."

"I see."

Jiang Zhou didn't ask why he was the only one left and where the others had gone.

Although Nan Chu retreated, many people who occupied Jiangdu were implicated, and they took many people with them when they left.

There really aren't many left in each government department and department.

The old official asked: "I wonder why Tianbohou came here late at night?"

Jiang Zhou looked around and said, "Do you know the origins of the two ghosts in Gongyuan?"

"Two ghosts of grudges and grudges?"

The old official was stunned for a moment and then said: "I know that these two ghosts are the gods of the underworld. In fact, they are called the two envoys of grudges and enemies. They are the gods of the underworld. This position is placed in the tribute palaces of all states in the world."

"It's all because one of the seventy-two sages of the time once said: A gentleman is not without grievances and does not retaliate; he is not devoid of grievances and repays grievances directly."

"He advised the emperor to add this question of inquiry in the imperial examination, to teach students to settle all their grudges before entering the Gongyuan Academy, and to seek knowledge and fame in a clean and honest manner."

"A warning to the world. If you don't care about fame and fortune, you will break your back, bend your mind, and lose your character."

"It's just that the human heart hides its secrets, and only ghosts and gods can see it, so there are two envoys of grudge and hatred."

Jiang Zhou nodded: "That's it."

Immediately he sighed again: "I would rather take what is straight than seek what is curved. I will not set it up for brocade scales. I will only catch kings and marquises."

"All the sages and sages are indeed worthy of being role models."

"It's just a pity..."

The old official was smacking his words with relish at this moment. When he heard the words, he couldn't help but said in shock: "I wonder why Tianbohou sighed?"

"such a pity……"

Jiang Zhou sighed: "It is said that the human heart is like a ghost. The human heart is unpredictable, and ghosts and gods are also unpredictable. As time goes by, they are easy to change, and ghosts are hidden."

"this……"

The old official listened thoughtfully, but didn't know why.

Jiang Zhou didn't mean to explain to him, he just smiled at him and said: "Old sir, I want to pay homage to you, and I would like to ask you to lend me a favor."

When the old official heard this, he knew that he wanted to do things alone.

Although it was strange to come to worship the sages in the middle of the night, he could not doubt the identity of the other party.

Then he responded and left the Gongyuan.

Jiang Zhou also really walked into the Wenchang Pavilion, which is dedicated to the scholars.

I took a stick of incense and touched it with my fingers, and the incense stick ignited spontaneously.

Stand in front of the spirits of all the disciples and worship sincerely.

He once took the incarnation of Li Bai and climbed onto the mighty river. Separated by time and space, he asked about the immortal spirits of the disciples who were inscribed on the river.

I have experienced the awe-inspiring righteousness and immortal wisdom of all the disciples.

That is the true immortal foundation of the human race.

He worshiped willingly and sincerely.

After three bows, Jiang Zhou bowed again and said, "Young students want to cast spells here and question ghosts and gods. I am being disrespectful. Please forgive me, sages."

As soon as he finished speaking, the incense candle that had just been lit suddenly went out without any warning.

On the high platform where rows of spiritual tablets of the various disciples were originally displayed, a curtain suddenly dropped, covering the spiritual tablets of the various disciples.

Jiang Zhou smiled slightly: "Thank you all sages."

Saints respect heaven and earth and stay away from ghosts and gods.

Even ghosts and gods dare not get close.

The meaning of the scene before my eyes was clear.

He immediately turned around and walked out of Wenchang Pavilion.

With your mind wide open, you can observe everything within a small area.

The result was as Jiang Zhou expected, no trace of the two ghosts was found.

As early as in the autumn of the previous year, when Guo Yu went to investigate and file a grievance on behalf of his brother, he mentioned these two ghosts. He had come to look for them, but could not find them.

The grievances between the Guo Yu brothers and sisters began when the four major families in Jiangdu manipulated the examination room. In the end, the case fell into his hands, and the Zhu family and Zhu Yihao were also "forced" to death by him.

Behind this, in addition to Emperor Mang, there is also the shadow of Netherworld Yinsi.

When Guo Yu sought him out to complain, it was because of the guidance of the evil spirit among them.

At that time, Jiang Zhou had doubts.

However, in order to find out the "black hand" behind it, he still tried the "method" himself and made Di Mang's sword.

Perhaps, it is also the knife of another black hand.

The "reminder" left by the witch Xue Li also shows that there is still an invisible hand around him.

Jiang Zhou wanted to see what the demon girl meant by "being in the middle of the game".

At the beginning, I was not strong enough and did not dare to go too deep, but now it is different from the past.

As ghosts and gods, they can live in such a sacred place as Gongyuan. These two ghosts are definitely not ordinary ghosts and gods.

But it's different now.

"I was given the order from the sky, ascended to the nine palaces, hundreds of gods are in their seats, the attendants are respectful, the spirits of the land, the immortal officials in Yuedu, and all the true spirits are called by the mantra, and serve the public according to the spirit."

Jiang Zhou chanted the curse to drive away evil spirits.

Make a spell with your hands, point to the sky and draw the earth, and stamp your feet three times in a row.

"Where are the two ghosts of grudges? Come and see them quickly!"

"call……"

A gust of cold wind rose from the ground, chilling the bones.

Threads of black mist sprayed thinly and rolled like a whirlpool in the blink of an eye.

In the center of the whirlpool, there were two black shadows. They peeled away the black mist with both hands and emerged from it.

They all have indigo-faced fangs, bloody mouths, and flying beards.

The two ghosts' faces were extremely terrifying.

But at this time, the face of this terrifying ghost was full of surprise and uncertainty.

These are the two ghosts of grudge and hatred in Gongyuan.

In fact, Ergui himself didn't know why at this time.

They don't even know why they are here.

All I know is that an inexplicable force suddenly came and summoned them out of the gap between Yin and Yang where they lived.

They have absolutely no way to resist this force.

Not even a thought of resistance arose, and he obeyed the call inexplicably.

It wasn't until this moment that I came back to my senses, but I didn't know why I listened to the call.

"Who are you?"

"How dare you summon ghosts and gods at will!"

"For blasphemy against ghosts and gods, retribution must be forthcoming!"

The two ghosts opened their mouths at the same time, it was deafening, black evil was billowing, and it was extremely frightening.

Although I don’t know why, I still have to show off my ghostly demeanor.

Jiang Zhou put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Granny and hatred, don't you recognize me?"

"you……"
