Chapter Twenty-Seven: The City God
This yin cha stared at the Santu River, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing.
A few yin cha standing next to him were originally going to come forward to help, but they were glared back by Jiang Li, Jiang Li pressed this yin cha on the river for nearly a minute, and then picked him up and threw him aside, and said to the few yin cha who wanted to come forward to help before: "Look at him." ”
Although the yin cha was thrown back, it still kept rushing towards the river, and was about to jump into the river.
Jiang Li said this to several other yincha, and they immediately caught this yincha and prevented him from jumping in, Jiang Li then asked, "Where is the Chenghuang Temple?" ”
These grimaces looked at the road on the left.
Jiang Li'en sighed and walked towards the road with me on his back.
The previous pain had gradually disappeared, and I knew that I had caused trouble to Jiang Li, and I was quite embarrassed, but before I could speak, Jiang Li said, "Do you think Master is a bad person?" ”
I know what Jiang Li means, the Santu River is a dead thing, there is no emotion, the boundary between good and evil is obvious, Jiang Li stood on the bridge, the river flowed faster than ever, which naturally showed that he was a bad person.
But the man in front of me, I don't feel the slightest bit bad about him, he is kind-hearted, he can't bear to hurt any ghost, even the yin just now, he is only a small punishment, and he can't get along with the bad guy at all, I replied, "No, you are." ”
Jiang Li laughed, "In the eyes of others, Master is a bad person, but in your place, Master will always be your Master." ”
I didn't understand what Jiang Li meant by this detour at the time, but I also knew that he was different from me and others, so I said hello, and then fell asleep on his back.
I don't know how long Jiang Li has been gone, I heard the sound of people talking in my ears, I opened my eyes, Jiang Li shook and said, "Stinky boy, come down when you have slept enough, your master is old, and he can't carry you." ”
I looked around.
This is a small hall, there are dozens of yin on both sides of the hall, and there is a red copywriter placed directly above this hall, and behind the copywriter sits a red-robed man with a single eyebrow, and there is a ghost holding a pen on both sides of the red-robed man.
I got down from Jiang Li, and the red-robed man above spoke: "The two below, when you see this city god, you still don't kneel down and obey the judgment!" ”
Only then did I know that this red-robed man was the city god we were looking for, the one in charge of our life and death.
The first time I saw Chenghuang, I was naturally very nervous.
I looked at Jiang Li, anyway, what he does, what I do.
Jiang Li smiled, saluted to the Chenghuang Lord above, extremely polite, and then said, "I, Jiang Li, the sixty-ninth generation descendant of the Heavenly Master Dao, was entrusted by the Yang people to ask the Chenghuang Lord for clarification. ”
Chenghuang heard Jiang Li's self-report, and learned that Jiang Li was a Taoist priest, and Kong Duo was a little helpless, frowned and said quite unhappily, "It's you Taoist priests again, this Yin Division is under our jurisdiction, and the Dao Gate will take care of the demons and monsters in the yang world, why are they all meddling in our Yin Division affairs now." ”
From the mouth of the city god, I judged the relationship between the Daomen and the underworld.
The ghosts of the underworld are in charge of the ghosts of the underworld, and the Daomen is in charge of the demons and monsters in the yang, but because the people of the Daomen are often entrusted to come to the underworld to do things, the underworld has long been impatient, and because most of the Taoist priests who can come to the underworld have some ability, the people in the underworld are helpless, and they dare not do anything to the Taoist priests, but they are very disgusted with them.
Chenghuang muttered a grumble, and then asked, "Ask, what's the matter?" Hurry up and leave when you're done! ”
Jiang Li's face was still like a spring breeze, and he said, "Please ask Lord Chenghuang to tell Chen Anrong how long he has lived and where his soul is now." ”
Hearing Jiang Li's words, the patience on Chenghuangye's original face became a little embarrassed, but he didn't even check, he waved his hand directly and said, "Yin Si is impartial, Yang Shou will naturally report to Yin Si when he dies, so since Chen Anrong has already arrived at Yin Si, it means that his Yang Shou has been exhausted, there is no need to check again, you can go quickly." ”
Chenghuang waved his hand and urged us to leave, and gave the order to evict the guests.
Jiang Li smiled evilly: "Heavenly Master Dao has a spell, called the Physiognomy Technique, it's not a coincidence, Xiao Dao knows a little bit about the Physiognomy Technique, I have already calculated that Chen Anrong's life is not over, but he was taken away by the people of your Yin Division, this is obviously an abuse of power, I respect you as a local city god, so I didn't break this matter, if you still deliberately conceal it, don't blame me for submitting a document to the judge's mansion." ”
Jiang Li has already begun to blackmail this city god, and I can see that the city god must know my father, otherwise how could he risk offending Jiang Li and directly refuse to help Jiang Li investigate.
Jiang Li's words made Chenghuang's face change greatly, but in order to maintain his own majesty in this area, he suddenly shot up, and with a bang, he frightened the yin in this hall, including me, and my heart trembled.
Chenghuang stood up and glared at Jiang Li angrily: "What a big boldness, yin and yang go their own way, you trespass on the yin division before your yang life is over, you have already made a heinous mistake, and now you are still coming to blackmail this city god, it is so bold, hurry up and get out of me, otherwise let both of you stay here." ”
Chenghuang had already torn his face, and he didn't care about Jiang Li's identity as a Taoist priest at all, and Jiang Li no longer spoke to this Chenghuang in a good voice, and turned to look at me: "You and your father are connected by blood and soul, you can feel it well, is he here." ”
"Here." I answered in the affirmative, there is no reason, it's just intuition.
Jiang Li's grace sighed, turned around again, and walked directly to the table in Chenghuang.
The corners of Chenghuang's mouth twitched a few times, and he pointed at Jiang Li and shouted, "What are you going to do?" This is the underworld, not your yang world, don't mess around! ”
Jiang Li didn't care about it, he walked directly to the high platform where the city god was, and stood next to the table.
After seeing Chenghuang, he waved the pen in his hand to determine life and death and poked it towards Jiang Li, but Jiang Li grabbed it with one hand and broke it into two pieces with a click.
"Yin Si gives you the pen of life and death, it is to let you act impartially, not recklessly, since you play with life and death, then you are not worthy of using this pen of life and death."
Jiang Li threw the broken pen of life and death into the main hall.
The reason why the city god is the city god is because the city god has the life and death pen granted by the Xudu Palace in his hand, which represents the authority of the Yin Si and the status of the city god, and now it is broken alive by Jiang Li.
Chenghuang was also stunned, he didn't expect Jiang Li to have such a big courage to dare to break the pen of life and death, and said in astonishment, "You, you are simply lawless." ”
Jiang Li glanced at this Chenghuang carelessly, smiled and said, "Even if you judge is here, I dare to break his judge's pen, let alone your little Chenghuang, I treat each other with courtesy, you don't know how to cherish it, no wonder me." ”
After Jiang Li finished speaking, he walked to the bookshelf behind the city god, looked left and right, and finally selected a book to open and check.
Chenghuang has no ability, all he relies on is a pen of life and death, now that the pen of life and death is gone, his confidence is gone, so he can only move out of the palace to speak, "Aren't you afraid that the palace will find you?" ”
"You let them come." Jiang Li replied lightly, then his eyes locked on the book in front of him, turned around and walked to the side of Chenghuang, suddenly pressed Chenghuang's head on the table, made a bang, and threw the book in front of Chenghuang, "This book clearly records Chen Anrongyang's life of seventy-nine, if you enforce the law impartially, why do you hook his soul now?" You'd better be clear, I might consider not filing the paperwork to the judge's office. ”
My mouth has grown into an O-shape.
I used to think that ghosts were the most powerful, but ghosts didn't dare to move when they saw Jiang Li.
After that, I thought that Yin Cha was very bad, but Yin Cha was so frightened that he ran away when he saw Jiang Li.
I thought that Chenghuang was always better than Jiang Li, but the current situation is that Jiang Li pressed Chenghuang on the table.
Remembering what Jiang Li said to me before, 'Your master is the most powerful', I thought he was bragging, but now I believe that he is indeed the most powerful.
Chenghuang struggled a few times, gritting his teeth with hatred for Jiang Li, but he couldn't break free, and finally could only explain truthfully, "You can't blame me for this, I just did things according to the instructions above." ”
"Whose instructions?" Jiang Li asked.
Chenghuang said: "I don't know who he is, I only know that his surname is Chen, he is the messenger of the underworld to assist in the management of this area in the yang world, even I have to listen to his command, he asked me to take away the souls of the Chen family and others, and destroy it, it's none of my business." ”
surnamed Chen, and a person from the underworld.
Jiang and I invariably thought of the same person, that is, the grandfather whose soul disappeared unknown.
