I am the county magistrate in Liaozhai

"Meet the magistrate."

Miao Zhu has always been the spokesperson of the City God and the manager of incense. Obviously, this Lu Miaozhu is very respectable in Tangxi. He looks middle-aged, with a goatee, kind eyebrows and kind eyes. Pilgrims in the past would nod their heads when they saw him.

This is a very subtle signal in the eyes of Cheng County Magistrate, who has experienced Tangxi's "sincere folk customs" several times.

"Do you recognize the officer?"

Miao Zhu glanced subtly at the main hall next to him: "Your Excellency, when you fell into your lucid dream day and night, Cao Min... was also present."

Cheng Jin: ...is his dream a sieve, anyone can enter?

But he came here today to "sweep the wool", so of course his attitude is much more peaceful. After all, scholars have not pretended to be white these years.

Cheng Jin was born well and had an amiable demeanor when he smiled. Lu Miaozhu subconsciously became more kind and led him to worship the gods.

The city god is the god of nature, and also the protector of the underworld in a local area. For example, the city god of a small place is mostly served by local ghosts who have made outstanding contributions or have added meritorious deeds.For example, the city gods of one state and one province are those who competed among the city gods in various places, or are people who have a high reputation among the people.

Of course, the transmission of information in ancient times was slow, and there was not one of the latter in a hundred years.Therefore, a city god's promotion path is also linked to performance just like an official in the mortal world.To put it simply, it is Yin De Fu Bao.

Tangxi's current City God seems to be a well-known doctor a hundred years ago. His name cannot be tested, but he is known to save lives and heal the wounded, and he has treated many people for free.Later, this matter was introduced to the underworld, and he was appointed by Lord Yan to be the City God.

Although it doesn't sound like a professional match, but from the perspective of folk style, it should be quite successful.

It’s just that in recent years Tangxi has been full of bandits and bandits, and rich households have gradually moved away from Tangxi area. When Tangxi County was newly established, the county magistrate who recruited security either did nothing, or changed his name and continued to exploit the common people. Also suffered from it.

This can be seen from the fact that he couldn't wait to express his position in his dream on the first day he took office.

After worshiping the gods, Miaozhu invited Cheng Jin to drink tea. Of course, the magistrate Cheng did not refuse. After some gossip, he suddenly said, "I don't know how much Miaozhu you know about Shuimangcao?"

Miao Zhu didn't expect the young county magistrate to be so direct, but he didn't hide anything, and what he said was similar to what Liu Sheng said.

When Cheng Jin heard it, he wondered, "Why can't the Shui Mang Ghost be reincarnated? Does the underworld discriminate against the Shui Mang Ghost?"

Miao Zhu: ... I can't answer your question. jpg.

"My lord, this water mang ghost cannot be reincarnated. It has existed since ancient times. There is a clear law in the underworld. If the water mang ghost wants to be reincarnated, the only way is a substitute."

When Cheng Jin heard it, the smile on his face disappeared instantly: "That is to say, the underworld encourages the victimized Shuimang ghost to return to the sun to commit crimes?"

Miao Zhu: I can't answer your words, jpg.

"This..., my lord, can't be compared." But in fact, after thinking about it in Miao Zhu's heart, this is really the case.

Although Cheng Jin accepted unscientific ideas at the beginning, his perspective was extremely tricky. The reincarnation principle of water reckless ghosts can be included in the "Top Ten Deceptive Behaviors of Hell Reincarnation". People are killed by ghosts. What is it that harms ghosts and gives them a chance to be reincarnated, and even asks the victimized ghosts to harm ordinary people?

Death law discrimination?Force the good to harm?

"Why can't they be compared? Since ancient times, yin and yang have been separated. Human beings have their own way, and ghosts have their own way of ghosts. The water mang grass is so evil, unless it has another talking head on it. I don't know if Miao Zhu can explain it to me?"

Miao Zhu: ...

Shuimangcao was raging in the Taohuajiang area of ​​Chudi, Miao Zhu was obviously not very clear about it, and was finally "forced" by Cheng Jin, so he had no choice but to look it up.

Of course, according to Cheng County Magistrate, Chacha means going to the underworld to inquire.

The purpose of this trip has been achieved, of course Cheng Jin will not stay for dinner, and will soon leave the Town God's Temple.

When the people walked away, Miaozhu immediately asked people to close the main hall, and he lit the incense to invite the gods. Soon the incense was wafting up, and the City God stepped out from the statue of the City God and landed in front of Miaozhu.

"How is the new magistrate of Tangxi County?"

Miao Zhu had an unspeakable expression on his face, and after typing a [-]-character draft in his belly, he finally said, "I'm telling the words of the City God, the new magistrate of Cheng County is well-known, and his teacher is Zhou Daru, who was eighteen years old. He won Tanhua at a very young age, and his eloquence...was amazing, the way he was able to reach Tangxi County smoothly and safely was obviously not easy."

City God doesn't like to listen to this kind of official rhetoric: "Speak simply."

Miao Zhu immediately changed his words: "He is a ruthless character."

After hearing this, City God's brows and eyes slightly stretched: "I'm afraid he's here to ask for something?"

Miao Zhu then said: "He wants to know why the Shuimang ghost can't be reborn."

Lord Chenghuang: ...how about waiting for the next county magistrate?This appointment sounds rebellious.

The rebellious magistrate Cheng had almost walked out of the east of the county seat, and if he walked through the alley in front, he would probably be able to see the lantern in front of the county government gate.The sun had already set at this moment, and the locals seldom went out at night except for temple fairs.

The more Cheng Jin walked, the fewer people there were. When he reached the entrance of the alley, there was no one left.Fortunately, when he left the Town God's Temple, Miaozhu gave him a lantern so that he could not see the road clearly.

However, danger also breeds silently in the darkness.

A polished knife, dressed in a dark coat, struck swiftly, only taking Cheng Jin's heart.

Cheng Jin has never studied martial arts systematically. He is born with great strength. In a sense, he is much better than some practitioners without practicing, not to mention——

He recently recruited a very dedicated teacher.

The blade was almost approaching Cheng Jin's heart, but stopped for an instant. Cheng Jin was startled, then grabbed the knife casually, and threw it back with his backhand.

"Ah——" a scream rang out in the alley, making the atmosphere even more terrifying and gloomy.

"Master Hei, are you here to pick me up?"

At some time, Heishan was already leaning against the entrance of the alley, holding the lantern that A Cong forcefully gave him in his hand, reflecting his obvious moodiness: "You think too much."

Cheng Jin handed over the lantern in his hand: "Oh, wait a minute, I'll go exercise."

Montenegro: ... What about asking him for help?

After a while, there were screams one after another in the dark alley, so horrific that Hei Lulu couldn't help closing his eyes when he heard it.

"you……"

Cheng Jin snapped back and said, "Don't talk about it now, wait until I throw him into the cell first."

Then, Mr. Hei held two lanterns and watched helplessly as the frail scholar Cheng County Magistrate's assassinated bandits strung together in a string, all the way to the gate of the county yamen like a stroll in the courtyard.

Black Deer Deer: ...

Cheng Jin clapped his hands at this moment: "Hey! I finally remembered, I forgot to check the cell yesterday. Speaking of which, are there any jailers in the county government?"

At this moment, Hei Lulu had completely fallen into silence.
