I am the county magistrate in Liaozhai

Once upon a time, the City God was also a good doctor who saved lives and healed the wounded, but who the hell these days? God? 007 can still have a good temper. Those sneaks in the underworld are not good things, even saints can force them to swear. What's more, it is the city god who has been known for his temper in recent years.

Look at these one by one, shouting? Forgive me for my mistake, my mind is full of dark thoughts, I punished five ghosts who wanted to escape their crimes in a row, and the city god was so angry that he drank a cup of chrysanthemum tea.

"Master, calm down, Lu Miaozhu in Yangjian seems to have something to do with you."

The City God was stunned, and threw the cup on the desk: "There is Cheng Yi'an in the world, what can happen?"

The messenger ghost trembled, not daring to hide it: "It is said that it was introduced by the magistrate Cheng."

That designation is not a good thing, the City God immediately pulled down his face: "No!"

The city god in the underworld loses his temper, and the Maliu in the yang world is like sitting on pins and needles like a thorn on his back. Staying in the city god's temple, he only feels that he has a duck smell all over his body, and even his arms that have been boned are itchy. He knelt on the futon, endured and endured, and finally did not? Resisted to lift the sackcloth and glanced at his arm.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

Lu Miaozhu knocked on a wooden sign: "In front of Lord Chenghuang, no noise is allowed."

"Duck feathers! Duck feathers are growing again!" Ma Liu was startled and began to kowtow, even thinking of his own death. With his appearance, he might not even be able to enter the ancestral grave of Baijiazhuang.

At this moment, Ma Liu was finally afraid. He kowtowed one by one, so sincere that even the city god in the underground could feel it. , although it can't be regarded as devoid of conscience, it is by no means a good thing.

Let's hang him out for a few days before talking, haven't you? See so many official duties on his case.

Ma Liuyi knelt in the Town God's Temple for three days in a row, and it was the Lantern Festival. In order not to offend the pilgrims of the Town God's Temple, the City God reluctantly sent a letter to Lu Miaozhu, telling him how to remove the duck feathers.

After Lu Miaozhu finished reading, it was rare to see Ma Liu's eyes with a bit of sympathy.

Look, look, look, Lord Chenghuang has already been taken away by the new county magistrate Cheng, this method is really... pretty good.

"Miao Zhu, what did City God say? Is there a solution?"

Because of excitement, the sackcloth on Ma Liu's body slid down quite a bit, revealing half of his long-haired face, Lu Miaozhu backed away in fright, turned his face to the side, and hurriedly said: "You should block it first, so as not to stain the eyes of the City God. "

City God Clay Sculpture: ...I have seen it.

Ma Liu hurriedly put the sackcloth in his pockets: "I beg you, Lord City God, little? You have really reformed yourself. From now on, you will never do it again. If you violate the law, tell me to grow a duck again." Mao, it cannot be cured."

No matter what happens after Maliu, now? At this moment? The heart of admitting mistakes is sincere, and the words are not so vulgar.

Lu Miaozhu heard the words, and said: "The Lord of the City is kind, you must accumulate virtue and deeds in the future? Good, you have been riddled with evil karma in the past, and the duck feathers covering your body are the incarnation of your evil debts. You must ask the Lord of Suffering for forgiveness." , the duck feathers have to come off."

Ma Liu said no? I understand: "Please ask Miaozhu for advice? Maze."

Lu Miaozhu said it was very simple. If you take something from the old man, you have to return it.

Ma Liu was taken aback: "But I don't have any money!"

Ma Liu is true? No? Money, even if he has two dollars in his pocket, he will still drink and drink. A whole body of duck feathers.

"So Ma Liu, did City God help him in the end?"

Cheng Jin looked up at the cat demon who was overflowing with curiosity, and said casually, "Is this something to do with you?"

"Evil comes with evil. If City God let him go lightly, I'd feel bad."

"But you said last time that you are a demon, not a human, and can't understand the emotions of ordinary people. Pan Laotou, you have become a little fast." Cheng County magistrate has a very good memory, and of course he also likes to turn over old scores. .

Mao Mao slapped the table: "Say it or not!"

"Well, Lord Chenghuang did provide a solution." And as he expected, it was very precise, "God Chenghuang told Ma Liu that only when the old man sincerely insults him can he lose his duck feathers."

Mao Mao looked puzzled: "Huh?"

"Didn't you? I heard it right. It is said that the more you scold, the faster the duck feathers will fall." So many duck feathers fall off, and it can't even be used as a warm down jacket when housed.

Maomao couldn't help recalling the old man's character, and then had to admire the whimsy of the City God: "That mortal old man doesn't look like someone who can swear."

Mao Mao completely wrote the eight characters of gloating and Ma Liuwan on his face.

"Hey, if Ma Liu offends you, then you can scold him for being autistic in minutes." Mao Mao sighed.

Upon hearing the words, Cheng County Magistrate showed a kind smile: "Are you sure that Ma Liu dares to offend this official?"

Pan Maomao: ... No, if Ma Liu really offended Cheng Suansu, there is a high probability that right now? Ma Liu has already lined up to reincarnate in the underworld.

"Don't think that if you don't make a sound, I won't guess that you speak ill of me in your heart."

When Maomao heard this dangerous statement, she immediately denied it: "No! I am not, I am not? Yes, don't talk nonsense!"

Although Maomao denies it, this does not prevent Cheng County Magistrate from disciplining Tangxi Yamen's mascot?.

Tomorrow is the Shangyuan Festival. Although Tangxi is not as prosperous and lively as central Beijing, of course it is not as good as Fucheng, but Cheng County Magistrate decided to hold a small-scale food festival to test the water first. start.

So today Cheng Jin had to worry about a lot of things, even the useless cat demon was assigned to help Ah Cong.

Later, because he knew that Imperial Physician Qi was likely to be in the palace, Hei Lulu, who was absent from work, finally returned to the Yamen with a cold body. Because the night was not too deep, Cheng Jin would put down the specific plans for tomorrow .

"Master?"

Hei Shan stopped in his tracks, with a bit of hostility on his face: "You haven't slept yet?"

"No? For the Lantern Festival tomorrow, Ah Cong made a lot of glutinous rice balls for the Lantern Festival. I have to eat before I go to bed." County Magistrate Cheng touched his stomach helplessly and said.

This sounds so smoky, and it immediately pulled Heishan's thoughts back from the cold capital.

Cheng Jin saw that Heilulu's ice and snow breath had melted a bit, so he asked, "Did you catch someone?" It shouldn't be difficult for Heilulu, a big monster, to catch an ordinary person.

Who knows, the other party actually gave a negative answer.

The county magistrate Cheng couldn't help being surprised: "How is it possible? Could it be that he is stronger than Qing Heng?"

Montenegro frowned: "I can't enter the palace."

Cheng Jin knew that Li Yong couldn't enter the palace, but he didn't? He didn't expect that a demon king like Hei Shan would not be able to.

"Heaven? Dao is bound, but it is not impossible to forcibly break the palace gate."

What are these?Cheng Jin hurriedly stopped him: "Don't, no? There's no need to be so bold. If this imperial doctor surnamed Qi can't use evil methods, then he probably won't succeed."

Heishan couldn't help but said, "You trust Fu Chengshu that much?"

"You can't say that, but there are not many people in this world who can compete with senior brothers." After Cheng Jin finished speaking, did he still? Resisted asking, "How is the luck of the imperial city now?"

The night in Tangxi has become much warmer. Compared with the still cold capital, Heishan has to admit that he prefers this quiet small county town, and said: "The surname Fu won't let you take care of these things."

"Have you met my senior brother?"

Montenegro was noncommittal.

Cheng Jin didn't ask any more questions, because he probably guessed a little bit, and the senior brother wouldn't let him mention it. It was obvious that the old emperor was really dying.

Now? It's mid-January. If the old emperor can't last until March, then this session will be the first batch of officials under the new emperor who belong to the new dynasty. If Enke is opened again, or Speaking of seizing the heir to purify the big change of blood, then this year's candidates can be called "the chosen son of heaven".

Ning Caichen deserves to be the male lead. Although there is no female lead, the career line is still alive.

The county magistrate of Cheng diverted his thoughts and ran far away, but Heishan suddenly asked: "If the emperor changes in the world, do you want to go back to Beijing?"

"I'm sure I won't come back in the future. I'm just a small county magistrate, and the three-year term is not yet over. How can I be transferred back to the capital?" Besides, apart from taking care of trivial matters, Cheng Jin still treats Tangxi very well. I like it, "However, even if the three-year period expires, it is unlikely that I will go back to become an official in the capital."

Hei Shan doesn't understand the twists and turns, but he doesn't doubt Cheng Yi'an's talent: "Why?"

"Because my senior brother and I are not married." This is the ruler's old habit of being suspicious, "No matter who is in power, I probably wouldn't dare to allow my senior brother and I to be in Beijing at the same time. Indeed? It's pretty impressive."

"It's not conceit." Heishan said.

"That's right." Cheng Jin smiled happily, and simply made it clear, "I don't have any relatives, and I don't want to get married. Naturally, I am not bound by in-laws, but? Senior brother, his family is too chaotic, so he broke up his relationship early, because There are some reasons, too late? There is no marriage, and the ruler prefers to use officials with weaknesses."

Montenegro said bluntly: "The rules of the world are boring."

"So don't worry, I can still serve as Tangxi county magistrate for a long time." Cheng Jin added, "And? , but each generation can only produce one leader. This is not because educational resources favor one person, but because they know that a generation can only be established by one person.”

Qian Chengjin didn't know the twists and turns in it. He couldn't understand the modern way of thinking, the hierarchy and order, let alone these things, or was it told to him by the teacher later.

"So are you willing?" Heishan sighed, "Cheng Yi'an, you are no worse than Fu Chengshu."

Cheng Jin was stunned for a long time, and his tone of voice became weird: "Master, do you know? This is the first time I've heard such words."

"To tell you the truth, I'm pretty happy." Cheng Jin was certainly happy to be praised, "But I came to Tangxi because I made my own decision."

Reasonably speaking, when a Beijing official has to get up at three o'clock in the morning and go to court at five o'clock in the morning, he must be crazy to return to Beijing.
