On the official road in Taikang County City, several officials were walking struttingly as if they didn't recognize their relatives.
When ordinary people around them saw them, they would retreat, which shows that these official officials have a very bad reputation.
The leading official threw a piece of broken silver in his hand and said with a smile;
"Now that I have enough money to listen to music, I will find a few profitable companies at noon and make a good profit. How about rewarding each person with a little lady in the evening, hahaha."
The official who was half a step behind came up and asked;
"Boss, the young lady on the table just now looked nice. Why didn't Boss..."
The little official did not continue to say the next words, but the meaning was already obvious.
The leading officer glared at him, shook his head and said, "Otherwise, you still have too little experience."
"Judging from the clothes of those two people, they are not civilians, and they look unfamiliar. They should not be locals of Taikang County."
"I'm not sure whether they come here to make a living, or whether they are here to have fun with the powerful young master or young lady behind them."
"So I asked the old guy to collect their money before, firstly for money, and secondly to test those two people."
"If they come up with a penny to pay, I will definitely not let that little lady go. Her beauty is absolutely stunning. She is more beautiful than the courtesans in our city."
As he spoke, the leading officer couldn't help but show a yearning look, and the junior officers following him showed their true feelings even more, and all kinds of obscene remarks were made one after another.
"But!" the leading officer changed the topic and said seriously;
"The young man who looked only half as handsome as me took out a penny and said he didn't need to change it."
"This kind of behavior is only what those dudes with big families and big businesses can do. Now you understand."
After hearing this, all the petty officers suddenly realized, and then all kinds of rainbow farts came one after another, making the leading officer feel very comfortable.
But they didn't notice that as they walked, a layer of mist slowly rose around them.
When they noticed, they found themselves in a deserted alley.
"Huh? What's going on?"
"Yes, we should be able to walk to the Yamen road with our eyes closed. Why did we go wrong today?"
"No! It's not that we went wrong, it's that we fell into someone else's trap!"
The leading officer was the first to react. He drew out the sword from his waist with a snap and looked around cautiously.
Other petty officials followed suit and drew their swords, but the next moment, they froze.
Because a demon spirit with a human upper body and a smoke lower body appeared in front of them.
But the most important thing is not these, but the face of the demon spirit.
A flat face, a pair of mung bean eyes, a garlic nose, half pockmarked and half acne...
This appearance looks extremely ferocious.
"Ghost!"
All the petty officials were heard screaming, and then they all fainted.
The only one who was still standing was the leading officer, but he couldn't help but tremble in his legs when facing such a "ferocious" demonic spirit.
"Hey, what kind of evildoers you are...how dare you commit murder in the streets of our Taikang County..."
The leading officer spoke forcefully, but his confidence was obviously lacking, and he could hardly hold the knife steadily.
The demon spirit made a loud sound and said: "I am the messenger of the underworld. You have been oppressing the people and doing many evil things all year round. Today I am here to take your life!"
Clang.
The leading officer could no longer hold the sword and knelt down to beg for mercy;
"Master Messenger of the Underworld, I am aware of my sin, I am aware of my sin... I also beg you to spare my life, I will never dare to do it again..."
On the other side, Ling Yuyan, who was hiding in the dark and watching this scene, cast an admiring look at Wang Liang next to him and said through a message;
"Junior brother is really thoughtful. Scare them with demon spirits so that they will not dare to bully the people again in the future. It is indeed more effective than giving them a lesson."
Wang Liang smiled and replied: "I also remembered that when we first saw the demon spirit in Alabin's magic lamp, we were almost frightened by his appearance."
"Think about it, making a wish to it is not very reliable, so I have to change my mind and make use of the waste..."
"Sneeze!" The demon spirit was scaring the leading officer, but it sneezed for no reason.
"Who is saying bad things about me behind my back?" The demon muttered as he wiped his index finger under his nose.
"not me."
"not me."
"Not me either."
Listening to the series of nervous answers, the leading officer turned back to look at his younger brothers.
"You...were you pretending to be faint just now?"
The petty officials quickly got up, all with awkward smiles on their faces, and some were making quibbles;
"Boss, how can I do that? I was too sleepy just now and squinted for a while... Hey, hey, boss, if you have something to say, please don't take the knife..."
Under the ferocious threat of the demon spirit, several officials swore that they would perform their duties to the best of their ability and would never do anything to oppress the people again.
After they left the alley, they were still whispering to each other in fear;
"Hey, tell me, is that really the messenger from the underworld?"
"I think it's possible. No one can look like that except someone from the underworld."
"And when he asked us to swear, he used a spell to shield us from each other and not hear the oaths sworn by others. It looked quite real."
"But...are we really going to do our duty from now on and stop making money?"
"That's right. If you don't make money, I, as an official, will be the one to thank. By the way, what oaths did you all take?"
At this time, the leading officer smiled proudly: "Hey, I'm keeping an eye out."
"I swore that if I oppressed the people again, my parents would die, but my parents have already passed away."
The younger brothers were stunned for a moment, and then they all gave thumbs up: "Oh, the boss is really smart."
The leading officer continued: "Actually, I think swearing and so on are just nonsense."
"And the messenger from the underworld, I guess, is just a cultivator, just using some kind of magic to scare us."
"Well, let me give you a preview first. If I'm fine, then we can do whatever we want in the future."
As he said that, the leading officer confidently walked towards a vegetable stall on the street.
Behind the vegetable stall was an old woman. When she saw an official coming towards her, she was frightened but couldn't move away.
Soon, the leading officer came to the stall and looked at the baskets of fresh vegetables with a sinister smile on his face.
But just when he was about to kick over the vegetable basket, a little boy ran over and stopped him in time.
"What are you doing?" The leading officer glared at the little brother.
I saw the little brother smiled coquettishly, "Um... boss, I suddenly remembered that when I swore, I accidentally scooped it up with my mouth."
The leading officer looked surprised, "What do you care about me?"
The little brother scratched his head and said weakly: "I said... if we bully the people again, we will be killed on the spot and our whole family will die..."
When the little brother said the word "we", he emphasized his tone.
Hearing this, the leading officer silently took back his raised foot, then coughed and said righteously;
"I suddenly felt that... our consciousness was too low before. As official officials, it is our duty to serve the people wholeheartedly."
After saying that, he took his little brothers and left the stall.
I was just walking, and suddenly I turned around, glared at the little guy who was talking, and said every word through gritted teeth;
"Remember! Next time I swear not to involve others!"
