At around eight o'clock that night, Yang Shixuan was sitting in the official chair in the court, thinking about cooperating with the Linxian City God. Unexpectedly, Kangba City City God Guo Xinyao actually sent an honor guard to Wu. At the entrance of Hongxian Chenghuang Yamen, the leader was an eighth-grade military official.
When Yang Shixuan heard the noise and went out to check, the military immortal official had already entered the county government office. When he saw Yang Shixuan coming out of the court, he smiled slightly, clasped his fists and saluted: "Chief of the Prosecution Department of the Patrol Room of the Huang Yamen in Kangba City Chen Xianzheng met with Mr. Yang, the God of Wuhong County"
Yang Shixuan took a second look at Chen Xianzheng¡¯s attire. He was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile, ¡°It turns out to be Mr. Chen. Why is Mr. Chen here?¡±
"The lower official has been ordered by Lord Guo, Lord Guo, the Lingyouhou of Zhoucheng, to welcome Lord Yang to the Lord's Yamen of Zhoucheng for a banquet." Chen Xianzheng said with a smile: "Master Guo will have an important announcement, and the Lords of all counties in Kangba City must have already left. I went, Mr. Yang is the only city god who has been treated like this"
What kind of medicine is Guo Xinyao selling in his head? Yang Shixuan frowned slightly, but a smile slowly appeared on his face. He nodded and said, "Then I am really flattered Is the honor guard outside the door specially prepared for me?"
"Exactly." Chen Xianzheng seemed to be respectful to Yang Shixuan and his attitude was very humble. He bowed slightly and said with a smile: "If Mr. Yang has no important matters to deal with, can I leave now?"
Listening to the meaning of this, it seems that if Yang Shixuan has something to deal with, he can wait at the door with the honor guard for a while!
But as for Yang Shixuan, as soon as he heard that all the county gods in the city would rush to the banquet, his heart was already filled with joy. He really wanted to give people pillows when he dozed off! One was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer. Yang Shixuan didn't put on any airs. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go now. We can't keep Mr. Guo waiting in a hurry."
Chen Xianzheng smiled and nodded in agreement, turned around and walked out of the gate of Wuhong County Chenghuang Yamen with Yang Shixuan. He even personally raised the sedan curtain for Yang Shixuan Obviously, Chen Xianzheng had received some guidance from Guo Xinyao before he came to Wuhong County Chenghuang Yamen.
Yang Shixuan was sitting on the sedan chair that had come down from Zhou Chenghuang. Knocking all the way, they set off to the Kangba City Chenghuang Yamen. At the same time, in the Kangba City Chenghuang Yamen, the newly appointed Zhou Chenghuang Lingyouhou Guo was present. But he was sitting on a chair with a helpless look on his face, and said to another immortal official on the side: "Master Wang, it's really not that I don't want to help with this matter, but it's really that I have more than enough intentions but not enough power Otherwise, would you like to go somewhere else and take a look?"
Sitting with Guo Xinyao. He is an old man with a slight build and a goatee. Judging from his clothes, he is also a City God of the same level as Guo Xinyao. Both of them are in the sixth grade, and their official titles are exactly the same.
"What's a little strange is that they both hold the same official position, but Guo Xinyao is in front of him. But he seemed a little helpless. In other words, he was a little afraid.
But this Mr. Wang was holding a cup of fairy tea and looked leisurely, as if this was not the Kangba City Chenghuang Yamen, but his own Yamen!
Somewhat arrogantly, Mr. Wang put down the tea cup in his hand and glanced at Guo Xinyao with an apologetic smile on his face. Said: "According to the rules of heaven, every state government should share the worries of the heaven. This year's sixty quota is not a condition for being able to move. If you are not willing, then I won't force it."
With that said, Mr. Wang stood up from his chair, casually raised his fist towards Guo Xinyao, and said with a hint of irritation: "I'm taking my leave!"
"Hey, Mr. Wang, please don't leave in a hurry" Guo Xinyao was a little confused. He quickly stood up and stopped Mr. Wang who was about to leave. He looked like an angry little daughter-in-law, and there was no trace of Lingyou, the city god of the state. The authority that Hou should have? He stopped Mr. Wang with an apologetic smile and gritted his teeth and said, "How about this? We in Kangba City will try our best to pick and choose, but sixty is really a bit too much. Otherwise, do you think twenty is okay?"
"You'd better keep talking to Lord Fucheng Huang about this." Lord Wang flicked his sleeves and left directly, ignoring Guo Xinyao's begging eyes.
After Mr. Wang left, Guo Xinyao angrily slapped away the tea cup that Mr. Wang had just put down. His face turned green, his body was slightly trembling and he gritted his teeth and said: "You're going too far Mr. Wang, you're going too far." !!!"
At this time, a middle-aged immortal official in his forties emerged from behind the screen on the side. He first looked at the direction in which Mr. Wang was leaving, and then carefully walked to Guo Xinyao and whispered. Asked: "Sir, what did Wang Ganglie say?"
"What else can I say?"Xinyao crooked his nose and said angrily: "The entire Baishan Mansion only has sixty quotas. Evenly divided, a prefectural government office only has to bear a quarter of the output. This Wang Ganglie has gone too far to bully others and actually imposed all the quotas on me." This is simply lawless in Kangba City!!¡±
"Then how about you go talk to Lord Fucheng Huang?" The middle-aged immortal official was obviously the head of Guo Xinyang's Yin and Yang Department. He hesitated and said: "There may not be any room for maneuver in this matter. After all, The three of them bullied others too much, Lord Fucheng Huang can't be so partial, right?"
"This Wang Ganglie is the eldest son of the Nanyue Wang family." Guo Xinyao took a deep breath, tried to calm down the anger in his heart, and said through gritted teeth: "Lord Fucheng Huang is indeed a high-ranking and powerful person, but facing such a family of immortals and gods, I'm afraid that It¡¯s quite embarrassing What I¡¯m worried about is not this year¡¯s 60 places, but the next year, the year after that, and even the long-term future!¡±
He patted the table heavily and said in a low tone: "Every year, the Central Heavenly Court organizes gods from all over China to go to the demonic realm to suppress it. Everyone knows that the people who go there have a narrow escape from death. If sixty qualified gods are selected every year, If we are elected, Kangba City¡¯s Huang Yamen will never recover from this! What they are doing is really beautiful!¡±
"Then" The middle-aged immortal official also didn't know what to do. He scratched his head and said, "What should we do according to Lord Chenghuang's wishes?"
"Let's take it one step at a time." Guo Xinyao took a deep breath and squinted at the door. "It's time for the county gods to arrive By the way, has Yang Shixuan, the city god of Wuhong County, come? I'll go to the back hall to rest first. In a moment, when Yang Shixuan arrives, take him to the back hall to meet me immediately!"
"Yes I understand." The middle-aged immortal official nodded in agreement and watched the somewhat frustrated Guo Xinyao enter the back hall to rest.
"There are gods and demons in the world. This is the truth from ancient times.
In ancient times, there was no distinction between gods and demons. But later, such a division gradually evolved. The temple controlled the three realms and six paths, and drove most of the monsters, ghosts, and demons into the evil path. And set up divine governments in various places with direct jurisdiction to suppress these demons who are always thinking about breaking out of the devil's way and causing harm to the world.
Today¡¯s world is far from the chaotic level it once was. Immortals and gods have almost complete control over the Three Realms and Six Paths, while demons huddle in the devil¡¯s path and linger. It also has to endure the annual purge. The temple needs to control the power of the devil, so this is the best way.
Behind the prosperity of singing and dancing, there are often the contributions of countless gods.
What makes Guo Xinyao furious at this moment is that the annual demon-elimination raid is about to begin again. At that time, the immortals from the central heaven will lead the warriors selected by the immortals from the earth to rush to the demon path far away from the earth, or the sealed demon star to launch a fierce fighting and sweep in order to control the number of demons.
These are things that the central heaven and even the temple bosses need to consider, and have nothing to do with small characters like Guo Xinyao.
But according to the rules of the Central Heavenly Court, the gods of the City God system must also export combat power to eliminate demons and sweep away demons. A prefecture-level City God's Yamen must export 60 fighting gods every year. Usually the government suppresses the state. Prefectures and counties were passed down one level at a time. In the end, it was almost impossible for more than two gods to be selected in a county.
In this way, the losses will be almost negligible, and new gods can be added at any time. Ensure the smooth operation of the Yamen.
But if a state government wants to export 60 combat troops, it means that each county has to export seven or eight gods. Seven or eight a year, seven or eighty in ten years! How long does it take to cultivate a fairy? The output is like this. There will eventually be serious consequences.
The city gods of various states in Baishan Prefecture bullied Guo Xinyao because he had no backing or background, and secretly united to put pressure on Guo Xinyao, asking him to shoulder the entire government's combat output from Kangba City's prefectural government. It is no wonder that Guo Xinyao was so angry. After all, It feels very uncomfortable to be bullied.
Yang Shixuan sat comfortably in a sedan and arrived at the Huang Yamen of Zhoucheng City, Kangba City. As soon as he stepped out of the sedan door, he saw a white, middle-aged immortal official wearing a black gauze hat of a seventh-grade immortal official with a full face. Welcoming him with a smile
"You must be the famous Wuhong County City God Yang Shixuan, Lord Yang? Hello, hello, I am Sun Youting, the head of the Yin and Yang Department of Zhouchenghuang Yamen in Kangba City. I am waiting here specially on the orders of Zhouchenghuang Lingyouhou. Master Yang has arrived" Sun Youting was very enthusiastic.
After hearing this, Yang Shixuan was stunned and nodded with a smile. After all, the other party was an immortal at the same level as him, and his control of power seemed to be a little greater than his As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person, Yang Shixuan also responded kindly. With a smile, "It turns out to be Mr. Sun, hello, hello I have admired you for a long time."?. "
Sun Youting smiled and said: "Master Yang, please come here. Master Lingyouhou has been waiting for you for a long time"
"Excuse me, Mr. Sun, to lead the way" Yang Shixuan said politely, but his heart became more and more weird. What kind of crazy medicine is this Guo Xinyao selling? Although I have outstanding abilities in his eyes, after all, he is the sixth grade and I am the seventh grade. How can a superior officer be so polite to a subordinate officer?
Keeping a smile calmly along the way, Yang Shixuan followed Sun Youting into the Zhoucheng Huangyamen, which has a huge building complex. He zigzagged to the back hall for people to rest behind the court hall. As soon as he entered the back hall with his front feet, he saw him behind his back. Guo Xinyao stood up from his chair with a smile on his face, clasped his fists towards himself and said, "Shixuan, I've been waiting for you!!"
"It can't work anymore Yang Shixuan felt that his head was a little confused. What kind of play was Guo Xinyao singing? !
Yang Shixuan, who felt more and more that there was a big pit in front of him waiting for him to jump into, put on a very hypocritical smile on his face, and quickly clasped his fists and said: "Oh, Mr. Lingyouhou is going to kill this official Exit How can an official be so valued by Lord Lingyouhou? Please sit down, please sit down and say"
This kid seemed to feel something The smile on Guo Xinyao's face stagnated slightly, but then he relaxed, pretending to be calm and waved to Sun Youting, and said: "You go out first, I want to talk to you. Let¡¯s have a good chat with my subordinates"
Sun Youting bowed understandingly, exited the back hall without saying a word, and closed the door.
Only then did Yang Shixuan feel a little more comfortable. He twisted his waist and waved his arms casually. Before Guo Xinyao could speak, he found a chair and sat down on his own. Then he smiled at Guo Xinyao and said, "Since your promotion, sir, I have been The officer is thinking about it day and night, looking forward to sitting with you"
"Oh, really?" Guo Xinyao also smiled, like a big tiger seeing a kitten. He picked up the teacup and calmly took a sip, and then said to Yang Shixuan: "My officer I am thinking about you all the time How about it, is Wuhong County Chenghuang Yamen okay during this period?"
"It's okay, barely enough." Yang Shixuan also smiled. "After the master left, I took care of a few kittens and puppies. The current Wuhong County Chenghuang Yamen is much cleaner than before "
"Oh? How many kittens and puppies did you take care of?" Guo Xinyao actually asked.
Does the person named Guo not know what happened at Chenghuang Yamen in Wuhong County? Seeing Guo Xinyao's reaction, Yang Shixuan was slightly startled.
But Yang Shixuan didn't know that Guo Xinyao's life after taking office was not very easy. On the one hand, he had to please the newly appointed Lord Guo Zhuoyan Guo, and at the same time he had to deal with the joint suppression of him by the other three state gods. This period of time was not easy. I can only describe it as exhausted.
At the same time, the Nanyue Emperor's Palace also blocked the affairs of Ye and Li. In addition, Yang Shixuan was the sole leader in Wuhong County. After dealing with Ye Jianghui and Li Shenghan, they also issued a gag order at the same time. They were worried that if the matter got bigger, they would This caused the dissatisfaction of the Holy Mother Jinhua.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????? It was such a mistake, that not even Guo Xinyao, the Lord of the Prefecture City God, Lingyouhou, knew that such a big thing had happened in the Wuhong County City God's Yamen!
Yang Shixuan hesitated for a moment and then laughed
