Weather forecast for Nanchengdong County: January 27, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, sunny.

Master Hu will hold the last ceremony at the Longwang Temple in Mangrove Village, and the master will combine the calculations of the heavenly and earthly branches, the five elements of yin and yang, and the four pillars, eight characters and twelve fortunes, and the time is set at 3 p.m. on the fifth day of the first lunar month.

And now, it is the night of the fourth day of the new year, at home in Mangrove Village.

"Ao Tang, Lulu, I'll go back tomorrow, what about you?"

Chen Yuanyuan wants to go back to Hongta, naturally he follows his cousin Chen Tingting to learn business management, Tiannan University winter vacation is on February 24, 25, 26 registration, 27 formal classes, and internship for a whole month.

Mi Lu immediately said: "We will also leave tomorrow, let's go together, let Ao Tang drive." ”

Ao Tang smiled, Yuanyuan learned business management for his career, although he didn't pay much attention to his company, but he was naturally moved by Yuanyuan's mind, and it was no problem to drive her for a lifetime.

Chen Yuanyuan said: "Then what about my car?" Put it at home here? But I still need to fix the lights. ”

Ao Tang looked at the Baolai parked outside the door and said, "Zhang Xiaojun is taking annual leave in the past few days, let him drive back to Spring City." He looked at his Tiguan again, "I've been driving this car for a year, and I always run long distances fast, and I have to do a comprehensive maintenance. ”

Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan both shouted: "It's too wasteful, right? ”

Ao Tang smiled: "It's not a waste, since the company has been opened, there are more than 40 employees, and the company has to have a few cars." ”

Now Cuihu Aquatic Products Company has Jianghuai, Wuling, Great Wall three modified fish delivery vehicles, non-fish delivery vehicles only one QQ3, which is regarded as the bus of Longya Bay Reservoir, Zhutang Reservoir is equipped with a batch of side three-wheeled motorcycles.

Chen Yuanyuan couldn't help but nodded: "It's okay to give the Tiguan to the company as a bus, so is it necessary to have a car over there in the Zhutang Reservoir?" It is not convenient to go to the city by motorcycle. ”

Ao Tang said: "There is still a Poussin parked in my Spring City, for Zhutang...... Uh, forget it, I'll keep Poussin, in addition to the Tiguan, buy two new cars for the company, according to the 100,000-level allocation, give priority to the use of independent cars. ”

Chen Yuanyuan said: "Then it will be equipped with a FAW Besturn B50 and a Geely Emgrand EC7." Three fish trucks are enough now, but they are waiting for the Zhutang Reservoir to be produced...... Forget it, there is still more than half a year, and there is no hurry. ”

Mi Lu said: "There is no need to have too many fish delivery trucks, now that the fame of the Cuihu golden perch has begun, and when the Zhutang Reservoir is produced on a large scale, others will beg to buy, and the transportation and distribution link can be passed on to the buyer." He laughed again, "Yuanyuan, I'm not doing anything bad to your Chen family's Cuizhu Building." ”

Chen Yuanyuan said with a smile: "Cuizhulou is not mine, my cousin often hangs on the verbal sentence 'in business', you can bargain with her, but the company can't completely abandon its own logistics capabilities." ”

Ao Tang said: "Speaking of which, Lulu, you are also the granddaughter of the Chen family, I think you were born to be sisters, go up to find the family tree, maybe it is really a family." ”

Chen Yuanyuan smiled, Mi Lu glanced at Ao Tang, and said angrily: "Don't take advantage of it and be proud." There are more people with the surname Chen, and I can't be related to Yuanyuan. ”

Chen Yuanyuan asked again: "Then when will we leave tomorrow?" Why don't you leave early and come to my house for dinner? ”

Ao Tang shook his head and said, "Wait until you finish reading tomorrow's rituals before leaving." ”

It was dinner time to rush back to Hongta, Chen Yuanyuan was slightly regretful, although he promised Milu that he would not cross the line with Ao Tang for the time being, but he still wanted to bring Ao Tang back to her house to have a meal with her parents during the New Year.

Of course, Ao Tang, the real dragon, is not interested in worshipping a fake dragon king temple that has no real dragon, but who told the Mu family of three to come tomorrow? He smiled evilly and turned on his computer and began to look it up.

"Ao Tang, what information are you looking for?" Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan put their heads together on the left and right.

"Media calls." Ao Tang found the first one, took out a spare mobile phone and started calling, "Hey, Tiannan News Station?" I reported that at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, Mu Zhenhua, member of the Standing Committee of the Chuncheng Municipal Party Committee and executive vice mayor, will go to the Longwang Temple in Hongshu Village, Nanchengdong County, to do ......"

Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan were dumbfounded, Mi Lu slapped Ao Tang's shoulder and smiled: "Ao Tang, you are bad, wait, Yuanyuan and I will help you choose the media, fortunately, the Tiannan News Station should not be a big problem, some media have a close relationship with the Chuncheng political axe, but they can't be reported to them." ”

Speaking of which, anyone has the right to enter the temple to offer incense, but the party and government leaders will always attract attention when they do this, and if it is exposed, people will ask you how can you burn incense and worship the Buddha as an executive deputy or department-level cadre in a provincial capital city? How can you do great things? This is feudal superstition, what about your party name? Are you corrupt [***], so your conscience is restless and you pray for peace from the gods and Buddhas of nothingness?

Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan are both student reporters of the Tiannan University News Agency, and they have also been arranged by the school news agency to go to regular media such as Chuncheng Daily for short-term internships.

After all the fights were over, Mi Lu said: "Actually, it may not be possible, with the prevalence of online anti-corruption, the official crisis response ability is also rising, if Mu Zhenhua has enough relationships, he can still erase all negative information." ”

The next day, just after noon, a lot of cars suddenly came to Mangrove Village, and as the people in the cars got down, the villagers who were concerned about current affairs immediately recognized it: "It's County Magistrate Bai, as well as Deputy County Magistrate Zhang, Director Wang, Director Li, ......."

"No, why did so many county leaders come at once?"

"That Master Hu really has so much energy and invited so many leaders to cheer? Today is the last in a series of rituals at the Dragon King Temple, right? ”

Some media reporters pretended to be ordinary pilgrims and mixed in the crowd, and they didn't shoot blatantly, anyway, some of them were secretly visiting and secretly filming, and they talked to the villagers: "That leader is your county magistrate Bai of Dong County?" Is the county magistrate? ”

"yes, hey, brother, you're not from our county?"

"I am from a neighboring county, I heard that your Dragon King Temple is quite spiritual, so I thought of coming over to have a look."

"Oh, spirit, spirit! Since the rebuilding of the Dragon King Temple in September 10, Mangrove Village is really smooth, and after Master Hu further rebuilt, the village is getting better and better, brother you want incense, come to my store to buy, oh, the second one on the left side of the temple is. ”

The reporter didn't mind spending a little money to buy a piece of incense, chatting with the villagers, while secretly patting the county magistrate Bai and others, the more grassroots leaders had no scruples, the car driven by the county magistrate Bai and others was an official car with a political axe, and the reporter was overjoyed, thinking that this time it was not in vain. However, the county magistrate of a backward county is not a big fish, and if Mu Zhenhua really comes to Shangxiang, it will be a big fish, and he will wait slowly.

Ao Tang and the three of them mixed on the periphery of the crowd, and when they saw that County Magistrate Bai and the others were looking down at their watches and talking to each other, he tried to listen to some voices, and said to Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan: "These guys are actually here to wait for Mu Zhenhua." ”

Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan looked at each other, after all, they were both official families, and their politically sensitive surnames were much stronger than Ao Tang's, and they wondered: "Shouldn't it, although Mu Zhenhua's status is not low, but he is not their direct leader, can he hurry up and wait?" Even if there is a group that has something to do with the Mu family's forces, it won't come so much at once? ”

There are more than a dozen department-level and section-level cadres recognized by the villagers!

The two suddenly thought of a possibility, and said to Ao Tang: "Maybe Mu Zhenhua is going to be transferred to Nancheng?" Officialdom is sometimes just a sieve, and before the top is decided, the bottom spreads. ”

Ao Tang leaned in: "Although I haven't heard how much notoriety Mu Zhenhua has, just looking at the actions of his wife and son, I know that that guy is not a good bird, and he was transferred to Nancheng, wouldn't that be a scourge to our Nancheng?" This guy's official luck is good, the executive vice mayor of Chuncheng can be directly promoted to the secretary of the Nancheng City Party Committee, right? ”

Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan suddenly laughed, shook their heads and said: "Ao Tang, you really don't understand, although Chuncheng is the provincial capital, it is not a sub-provincial city, and the executive deputy is not as high as you think, and the real tune Nancheng is estimated to be the acting mayor, and it will become a regular after a while." In 08, the executive deputy of Chuncheng was transferred to the contemporary mayor of another city, and he is still in the mayor's office, I heard that the official reputation is good, and he may be able to be the secretary of the municipal party committee by the end of this year. ”

Mi Lu thought for a while and said, "For Mu Zhenhua personally, it can barely be regarded as a small step forward, but his staying in Spring City to continue to cultivate his qualifications is the most valuable thing for the entire faction of the Mu family." Mu Kang'an retreated, Mu Zhenhua stayed in the provincial capital, and he could barely maintain this faction, once he left the place, it would mean that the entire faction would lose its core and would soon disperse. ”

Ao Tang shrugged his shoulders, he didn't care about the Mu family's life or death.

At half past two o'clock in the afternoon, two cars with Chuncheng license plates drove over, led by one of them as usual, Honda Accord only, probably the front to lead the way, but the back one was a luxury car, Babos S-class 60s, the reporters' eyes suddenly lit up, this is a car of three million, who is sitting in the car? Mu Zhenhua? High-ranking officials burn incense and worship God in luxury cars, this is good news!

The people from Honda Accord got out of the car first, ran quickly to open the door next to Babos, and waited for the people in the car to come down, sure enough, it was Mu Zhenhua, as well as his wife, Chi Hong, chairman and general manager of Liushui Group, and the young people around them, looking at their appearance, could guess that they were the sons of Mu Zhenhua Chihong and his wife, and the reporters were all well-informed and knew Mu Qingshan's name.

At this time, County Magistrate Bai and other officials had already greeted him: "Hello Mayor Mu, welcome Mayor Mu to our East County for guidance." ”

Mu Zhenhua was slightly dizzy, I came to burn incense and worship God, what are you waiting here? Originally, I just wanted to come and go quietly, but now there are so many people, wouldn't it be bad if one guy took a picture with his phone and uploaded it to the Internet? I glanced at the car of the county magistrate Bai and others on the side, and when I looked at the license plate number, I knew that it was a bus, and my heart was furious, how could you drive the bus? I don't even dare to drive the bus! Isn't that looking for something to do?

Mu Zhenhua vomited blood in his heart, but others waited for him here, he couldn't completely lose face, the province was indeed ready to send him to the contemporary mayor of Nancheng, if he wanted to sit firmly in the position of mayor, he also needed the support of the cadres below, and in the past few days, he has also deliberately read the information of important officials in Nancheng City and its subordinate counties, he glanced at it a few more times, and found that it was only the county magistrate Bai who was the leader, and the secretary of the county party committee did not come, so he couldn't help but snort in his heart.

This is the official, let others greet them, think they are troublesome, don't come, think they are disrespectful.

Mu Zhenhua snorted, and finally endured the fire and shook hands with County Magistrate Bai and the others, and said with a forced smile: "I am only the executive deputy mayor of Spring City, and it is also a private matter to come here." Magistrate Bai, what are you? ”

The county magistrate of Bai County smiled all over his face, pointed to the Longwang Temple and said: "Mayor Mu, this Longwang Temple in Mangrove Village was vigorously promoted by me at the beginning, which is to revitalize the history and culture, folk culture and tourism industry of our county. ”

He is showing his merit, County Magistrate Bai doesn't know why Mu Zhenhua came to worship the Dragon King Temple, but he just thinks that the Dragon King Temple that I advocated for reconstruction has attracted the mayor, and the mayor should be satisfied with me, right?

Mu Zhenhua smiled and shook his hand again, patted it hard, and couldn't wait to curse this Bai County Magistrate to death, just you have a lot of things, if you didn't promote the construction of the bullshit Dragon King Temple, Ao Tang's disaster star's home would not have to be demolished, he would not have to ask for leave to go home, he would not have collided with Qingshan, and Qingshan would not have been infected with bad luck.

At this time, Master Hu had already come out of the Dragon King Temple, and the image of this old liar was indeed a bit fairy-like, and now he was wearing a magic robe, which added a bit of mysterious temperament. Behind him, there are several "masters" who are said to have been specially invited from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and the masters will work together to complete this ritual and eliminate disasters for the Mu family.

"Mr. Mu, Mrs. Mu, and Master Mu, please follow me into the temple, and you must make some preparations before the Fa ceremony."

Master Hu led the three members of the Mu family to the inner room of the Dragon King Temple, and for more than half a year, he was like the owner of the Dragon King Temple. As for the five guarantee households in the village, who were originally arranged to guard the temple, they became the servants of the temple.

Other officials and the masses were about to follow, but Master Hu flicked his sleeves and said, "Please wait for a while, and wait for the official start of the Dharma before you can watch. ”

The reporter next to him hid a voice recorder and a camera, desperately rushing to the front, recording Master Hu's words, filming the looks of Mu Zhenhua and other officials, and his heart was extremely excited, the whistleblower was really right, Mu Zhenhua came to burn incense and worship God, and he came to engage in superstitious activities!

Master Hu and other liars introduced Mu Zhenhua and the three of them into the inner room, and they had many links such as cleaning their hands, washing their faces, sprinkling salt, changing clothes, dyeing incense, talismans, prayers, etc., Ao Tang had already sent the little octopus to lurk, and looked at it one by one, and talked to Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan outside:

"It's not our tradition to sprinkle salt to ward off evil spirits, is it?"

"I don't know, could it be some ethnic minorities?"

"Seems like that's the case on my side, right? This master liar probably doesn't know much about the law, but he just has a hodgepodge of superstitious ways in various countries around the world. ”

Ao Tang laughed in a low voice: "Maybe in ancient times, these things may not be superstitions, and one day I will take all the superstitious things of Taoism to study and study, I don't know if I can reproduce some spells?" ”

At three o'clock, the auspicious time has arrived, three futons were placed in the middle of the courtyard of the Dragon King Temple, and Mu Zhenhua and the three of them had already changed their clothes, and sat down sincerely according to the sitting posture taught by Master Hu.

As soon as Master Hu knocked on the cloud board, several master liar masters led their apprentices to rotate around the courtyard, and there were the sound of chanting scriptures and the people scattering flowers...... With that cloud board, the old man of Wubao who was guarding the gate of the temple also let go, and the county and township officials and the people in the village poured in and began to watch.

This Master Hu really deceived a lot of people, and the onlookers inside actually prayed quite devoutly, praying to the Dragon King for good weather and a safe house.

The onlookers on the outside watched the excitement, basically unbelieving, although they didn't dare to make a loud noise, they couldn't help but whisper.

Ao Tang was also talking, and grabbed a villager and asked, "Why are these people walking around so strangely?" ”

"Ao Tang, your first time coming to see it? According to Master Hu, it is Yu Bu. ”

"Yubu?"

"Yes, Dayu's footwork when controlling the water, every step down confirms that Tiangang Beidou can mobilize star power and gather qi to drive away evil spirits."

"So exaggerated? Really? ”

"Be quiet, I think it's a lie, the village chief specially summoned everyone several times, and repeatedly warned that he could rely on the Dragon King Temple to make money, but he must not really believe it. Most of the onlookers from the inner layer were from the nearby countryside, and they were stupidly fooled. But the half-grown son of my family, thinking that this is the same as Ling Bo Weibu in martial arts novels, actually begged Master Hu to learn, alas, children are disobedient. ”

Another reporter next to him heard it, and secretly remembered in his heart that feudal superstition poisoned minors! looked at Mu Zhenhua again, and sneered slightly, not only minors, but even dignified officials.

Ao Tang asked again: "What are those masters singing in their mouths?" ”

The villager said: "I don't understand, I really don't understand, my kid once asked Master Hu for advice, but Master Hu said that this is a secret that is not passed on." ”

Ao Tang sighed, his ears were good, and he listened to it really, and vaguely felt that it was all meaningless nonsense, maybe those masters were just muttering in a dialect that he didn't know where.

At this time, a reporter tried to turn to the front, ready to give Mu Zhenhua a frontal close-up, but he squeezed into someone else for a while, and was pushed by others casually, and with a snap, the miniature camera fell.

Most people didn't pay much attention to it, they dropped something, they just picked it up, but a person next to County Magistrate Bai changed color, and immediately whispered: "County magistrate, this is a miniature camera!" ”

Nowadays, science and technology are developed, and it is common to see in the news that there are miniature cameras used for anti-corruption, and of course there are also those used for extortion, and some officials have really learned some professional knowledge in order to fight against corruption and anti-extortion.

When the county magistrate Bai heard this, he immediately changed color, it is not uncommon for officials to burn incense and worship the Buddha, but it must not be exposed to the media!

He also ignored Master Hu's prohibition against making noise, and immediately shouted: "Arrest this person!" ”

More than a dozen cadres came to Dongxian County, indispensable to have drivers and entourage, the county magistrate Bai gave an order, the driver and the entourage immediately pounced on the reporter, the reporter was not alone, there was another reporter next to him, seeing that the situation was not good, he hurriedly went up to help, and suddenly there was a big chaos.

Mayor Mu was silently reciting the prayer taught by Master Hu before, and when he was disturbed like this, he suddenly forgot the next sentence, his heart was furious, and he opened his eyes to look, but the next moment, he threw his anger out of the clouds, and replaced it with panic and anxiety.

The besieged reporter shouted: "I'm a reporter from Tiannan News Channel xxx, you dare to mess around?" ”

The driver and entourage were stunned for a moment, Tiannan News Channel, this is the official media, will it be okay to arrest him?

Or the county magistrate Bai immediately made a decision, and shouted: "Nonsense, fake and shoddy, uh, in short, it's fake, this Longwang Temple in Mangrove Village is the folk culture and tourism industry that our county focuses on, some people with ulterior motives try to spread rumors and smear them, distort them into feudal superstition, our party members are never superstitious, and we will never tolerate rumors and smearers, arrest them!" ”

He was worried that there would be other reporters, so he turned to the township chief on the side and said: "Block the Longwang Temple, screen everyone, and call the police from the Wan'an Township Police Station and the joint defense of the township." ”

The township chief nodded immediately, and didn't see Xia Dali, the head of Mangrove Village, so he nodded a few familiar villagers: "You go and block the temple gate, there must be no mistake." ”

The villagers are giggling, if the village chief Xia speaks, he will naturally obey, but the township chief, who will bird him?

The township chief probably knew that his authority was not enough, so he said without hesitation: "I did a good job today, the matter between Hongshu Village and Beishan Village is easy to say, and I have to be embarrassed to speak in public." ”

The villagers of Mangrove Village immediately moved.

Mi Lu and Chen Yuanyuan asked Ao Tang in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Ao Tang smiled: "There will always be some conflicts of interest between villages. ”

Originally, the township chief was a two-headed eater, but this time if he really favored Mangrove Village, the villagers would naturally be willing to contribute.

Speaking of which, the reporter exposed feudal superstition, which is a legitimate act, if it happens in other places, the villagers will naturally applaud, but this is a mangrove village, this dragon king temple has indeed brought some benefits to the village, small shops have been built next to the temple, and small restaurants and even small hotels are still being built.

More than these related incomes, the greater the fame of the Dragon King Temple, the more incognito benefits Mangrove Village will get, just say this orchard, the fruit is sold, you talk about the origin of Mangrove Village, you will hear Oh said: "Is there a Dragon King Temple over there?" I heard that it is very spiritual? ”

Here hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, it's really spiritual, our orchard is not far from the Dragon King Temple, and it is also contaminated with aura." ”

Others may not believe it, but buying things is auspicious, and the fruit will sell more or less better if it comes and goes.

If the reporter is exposed, those bird officials will be unlucky, what if it leads to the decline of the incense in the Dragon King Temple? Coupled with the promise of the township chief, the villagers immediately guarded the temple gate, and there were really two reporters who wanted to break out, but they were stopped, and some camera recording equipment was searched.

"We're xx newspapers!"

"We are xx net!"

The exposed journalists spoke out to ensure their own safety.

The master liars had long since stopped, looking at the many reporters who appeared at once, and they couldn't do any more things.

Mu Zhenhua's family of three completely darkened their faces, Mu Qingshan's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Ao Tang, he immediately shouted: "Ao Tang, is it the reporter you bastard found?" ”

As he spoke, he had already pounced viciously on Ao Tang.
