Chapter 2 How can one mountain accommodate two tigers?

It was the new temple celebrant who pushed open the door and walked in.

"You may not know my name, after all, you were dead before I came to Jiazhou...... My name is Hao Lan, and I am the new Chenghuang Temple Zhu!"

Hao Lan walked to the bamboo chair opposite Wang Chong and sat down. Then with a complicated look, he looked at Wang Chong.

Wang Chong was also observing the new temple blessing.

Hao Lan was about forty years old, with very light eyebrows, narrow eyes, unusually bright pupils, and thin cheeks. Wearing an octagonal hat of the temple blessing and wearing a black and red dyed sacrificial dress, he looks dignified.

Wang Chong felt a gaze like a poisonous snake, very uncomfortable. And from the tone, it can be heard that this Hao Lan has no respect for Mr. Wang.

"Resurrection from the dead...... Hao Lan sighed and shook her head slightly, "You should know that unless you are possessed by a 'xenomorph', otherwise this kind of phenomenon will never happen!"

Wang Chong was speechless, analyzing the 'xenomorph' mentioned by Hao Lan in his heart, but he remained silent and calm on the surface.

"Because you have caused this chaos, the Earth Demon Monks in Jiazhou City will inevitably have to be busy for a while to eliminate the impact of this incident on mortal civilians. ”

Hao Lan's eyebrows raised, looking a little dissatisfied, and continued:

"And I have already reported this matter to Haotian. However, for some reason, I haven't heard back for a long time......"

"Senior Brother Gongsun has already checked your divination, you are not possessed by a 'xenomorph', and your life has indeed recovered. Your 'edict' is still there, proving that you are still a member of the Monk of the Earth......"

When Wang Chong heard this, he silently pondered what was a 'Disha Monk' and what was a 'Fu Zhao', as if the so-called 'Fu Zhao' was a symbol of cultivation?

Obviously, this knowledge is in the memory of the original owner, but he can't remember it for a while.

"Because the fact that you came back from the dead is too bizarre and weird, after deliberation, we decided to keep you in Jiazhou City. so that we may continue to observe you if there is any evil evil. ”

Hao Lan stared at Wang Chong and said slowly: "Before Haotian has a clear response, you are not allowed to leave without permission." Moreover, you should not go back to the temple to avoid causing further trouble. ”

"After all, now I am the temple of the City God Temple, and I will also preside over the gathering of the earth demons in Jiazhou City. Although you keep the 'Edict of the City God', this duty is no longer for you. ”

Wang Chong was still searching for vague memories and continued to remain calm and silent.

After Hao Lan finished speaking, she seemed to be worried about Wang Chong's overreaction, but after staring at it for a long time, she found that Wang Chong was still like a flat lake, unmoved.

How can this old man be so calm......? Hao Lan couldn't guess Wang Chong a little, and continued after groaning:

"Just because you're alive doesn't mean you'll be safe afterward. I advise you to find a place to stay, recuperate grounded, and wait for Haotian's reply. ”

When Wang Chong heard this, he reacted again, suppressed many doubts in his heart, and asked in a calm tone, "Then can I go?"

Hao Lan didn't expect Wang Chong to react like this, so she couldn't help but nod and said, "Of course, if you have a place to live, you can leave now." ”

"Okay. Wang Chong couldn't wait to go farther, after all, he was now an outsider. If any flaws are seen, you don't have to think about it to end up miserable.

He was about to get up and leave, when he suddenly turned around and said, "I'm penniless, I have no relatives to turn to, where can I go?"

Hao Lan seemed to be prepared, took out a palm-sized soft leather money bag from his bosom, and handed it to Wang Chong:

"That's ten taels of silver, enough for you to live during this time. Waiting for Haotian to have a reply, you will be safe and sound, and naturally there will be a monthly payment of silver for you. ”

Wang Chong unceremoniously took the money bag, turned around and left the bedroom.

Hao Lan didn't expect Wang Chong to walk away so quickly, and couldn't help but be stunned. When he came back to his senses, Wang Chong had already walked away.

After a while, a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a blue and gray Taoist robe, with five willows and black beards, a broken right eyebrow, and an old-fashioned appearance, walked into the bedroom with his hands in his hands.

"Senior Brother Gongsun, how is it?

Taoist priest Gongsun Zhi looked back at the night outside the door.

Wang Chong's aging body was already in a hurry.

"The vitality is restored, the breath is stable, and there is no 'xenomorphic' ......" Gongsun Zhi stroked the long beard under his chin and frowned, "Resurrection from the dead...... How can it be so normal...... Weird!"

"Normal?" Hao Lan snorted, "Although this old Mr. Wang is cowardly and mediocre and has a bad reputation. But since he is not dead, how can he willingly let me occupy his position?"

"Do you think he is deliberately showing weakness?" asked Gongsun Zhi, turning his head.

"Now that this position is occupied by me, he will still clash with me after all!" Hao Lan narrowed her eyes and said lightly:

"One mountain does not allow two tigers, he originally died well, but he was strangely resurrected. If I don't get rid of him, how will I be able to sit in my place in the future?"

............

Wang Chong quickened his pace and stayed away from the City God Temple, until he couldn't see the eaves of the temple behind him clearly, and then let out a long breath.

"That Hao Lan has murderous intentions towards me...... Is it because of the duties of the so-called 'Gathering of Demons'?"

Wang Chong shook his head and put these analyses in his heart first. He was thirsty and hungry now, had not eaten for half a day, and urgently needed to find a place to stay.

At this moment, according to Wang Chong's estimate, it is about nine o'clock in the evening.

The area of Xixiao is not a prosperous place, shops are closed, and pedestrians are extinct. In addition, the dark clouds were gloomy, and there was no light in the night, only the insects around them were heard, and the barking of dogs in the countryside near and far.

Wang Chong searched everywhere in the dark, and finally saw a 'Yuzhuang Inn', and hurriedly trotted over. Fortunately, this inn is located at a fork in the road, and business is passable, and it has not closed.

Wang Chong exchanged the broken silver, paid the room money, bought food, and was taken to the room on the second floor by the inn guys. After washing his hands and face in a hurry, he looked forward to seeing dinner being brought into the room.

A clay pot of bean sprouts, a dish of vinegared dried beans, and a dish of sauce broad beans. The Yangchun noodles of the full sea bowl are added with a thick noodle bun, which is steaming.

Wang Chong didn't care about burning his mouth, and sucked the noodles in a big gulp. After suppressing the hunger, I slowed down and ate it.

Until the dishes and noodles on the tray were eaten. Wang Chong burped, touched his belly, sighed, and felt comfortable again.

After being warm, Wang Chong finally got in the mood and began to think about what the 'Fu Zhao' that he didn't understand before meant.

Maybe it was because he adapted to the environment after crossing over, or maybe it was because Wang Chong thought about the problem of 'Fu Zhao' many times. Suddenly, from the depths of his mind, he began to have a strong feeling.

It's like something shiny, little by little.

Wang Chong's whole mind was attracted to it.

Really!

As Wang Chong observed intently, a two-finger-wide 'silver talisman' completely appeared in the depths of the spiritual space in his mind, and the auspicious clouds lingered and were mysterious.
