Chapter 34 Marry the Bride and worship the City God

No one will care who killed Guo Huai'an, they only care about when Lin Yuan will leave, and now that Lin Yuan is gone, they are very happy.

The busyness of this time has made them choke enough.

The arrest from the government was about to leave, and the "flower thief" did not continue to commit crimes in Guobei County, and everyone returned to their former peaceful life.

Lao Hou is happy all day long, because the matter between him and Xiulian has been booked, and the wedding date has been chosen.

On this day, Wang Zhe got up early.

Today, Lao Hou marries a wife, and he is going to be busy with Zhang Luo.

Lao Hou is very popular in the county government on weekdays, and the officials in the county government come to help.

Ride a big horse, wear a saffron, marry a bride, and enter the cave house.

Today, Lao Hou is the happiest person, the most beautiful boy, and his face is happy.

Neighbors, colleagues in the yamen, and everyone gathered together to celebrate him, which was very lively.

The county lieutenant didn't come, but he also sent someone to send a congratulatory gift, which made the old marquis smile even more happily.

Zhu Xiao, who is eight feet tall and dignified, began to brag and play music again, and dragged the old marquis to prevent him from leaving, so he had to go into the house to meet the bride.

Among these people who eat here, he has the highest official position, and he is quite unscrupulous.

Seeing Zhu Xiao so presumptuous, Wang Zhe felt that this happy wine was about to change its taste.

It's like a rat poop falling into one

He got up and came to Zhu Xiao's side, touched him gently, poof, Zhu Xiao knelt directly beside the table.

"Oh, what are you doing here?" Everyone was stunned.

"The headcatcher is drunk." Wang Zhe said calmly.

"Yes, yes, the headcatcher is drunk." The crowd echoed.

"I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk, I, look at the bride!" Zhu Xiao struggled to get up and was about to walk into the house.

With a pop, Zhu Xiao fell to his knees again, this time he didn't get up, and fainted directly.

"The head catcher is really drunk, let's send him home quickly."

"He also said that he could drink a jar of wine, bragging!"

Several servants carried Zhu Xiao back to his home, and the banquet continued.

Before leaving the table, Wang Zhe gently patted Lao Hou's waist and back a few times, and crossed a little bit of the body of Lao Hou.

"The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, and you can't drop the chain at the critical moment!"

The few strokes he slapped just now and that true qi are more effective than eating a hundred catties of wolfberries.

The banquet dispersed, Wang Zhe left alone, his figure was a little gloomy and lonely.

He was a human being, both in his past life and in this life.

"Maybe it's time to leave Guobei County and go out for a walk?"

Because of the newlywed, the old marquis took leave, leaving Wang Zhe alone to patrol the streets.

It's still the usual route, but there are more pedestrians on the street than in the past,

In a few days, it is the day of the annual worship of the "City God", which is a big event in Guobei County.

At that time, not only the people in the county, but also the people from the surrounding villages and towns will come to the city to worship the "city god", which lasts all day.

Through worship, people hope to be blessed by the city god, some ask for blessings for good weather, some for good health, some for blessings to ward off diseases and disasters, and some for children......

The officers who had been on an errand with him in the yamen were also ready to worship the city god. Among them, the most prepared is Lao Hou, who went to ask for a son.

There are still two days to go before the worship of the City God, and there are obviously many more people who go to the City God Temple to burn incense than usual.

That night, Wang Zhe was sitting on a recliner in the courtyard looking at the sky.

I don't know why, he always felt that the sky was strange in the past two days.

It was gray, as if something was shrouded in the sky over the entire Guobei county.

This is the first time Wang Zhe has seen such a strange celestial phenomenon in so many days.

"Isn't there something unexpected going on?"

Suddenly, he saw a black cloud floating in the sky from a distance, and then a black gas fell from the sky, as if a big snake had fallen into Guobei County.

"Youkai?!"

Wang Zhe hurriedly rose into the air and came to the sky, only to find that the black gas had disappeared.

"Where did you go?"

Wang Zhe thought back to the location where the black gas fell just now and came nearby.

"It should be around here!"

His gaze fell on a very conspicuous building.

"City God Temple!"

Wang Zhe fell from the roof and came to the courtyard, it was late at night, and there was no one in the courtyard.

The door of the main hall is open, the incense candles inside are still burning, and the city god is high, wearing a red robe, a jade belt around his waist, three long beards, and a majestic face.

Wang Zhe looked at it with the "Qi Lookout Technique", and saw that the body of this city god exuded a faint yellow light, as if he was wearing a thin layer of yellow gauze.

"This is the legendary incense wishing power!"

It was the first time he had seen such an aura.

Although Wang Zhe often passes outside the City God Temple on weekdays, he has come in a few times, and he has never worshiped the City God, nor has he used the "Wangqi Technique" to look at the City God statue, I don't know if there was such an incense wish in the past.

He walked around the temple and didn't notice the black gas he had just seen.

"Strange, where did you go?"

Finally, Wang Zhe came to the main hall again and stared at the statue.

"Chenghuang, did you see anything strange coming in just now? If you really have a spirit, tell me where the black breath is? ”

The clay statue of the city god sat upright, staring ahead, incense burning in front of him.

"Mistaken, not here?"

Wang Zhe turned around and walked out of the City God Temple, and the statue of the City God behind him seemed to blink.

Well?

Wang Zhe suddenly stopped and turned to look back.

"Strange?" He vaguely felt that something had fallen on him just now, as if someone was spying on him.

He glanced at the temple again.

Then I left the temple and walked around the nearby houses a few times, but I still didn't find it.

"Strange and weird, where did you go?" He stood on the roof and looked at the silent county town of Guobei.

After looking at it for a long time, he also found traces of the black gas, and he could only go back.

The next morning, he went to the City God Temple again, but he still didn't find anything unusual, but there were a lot of people coming.

Wang Zhe also specially used the "Qi Viewing Technique" to look at the people of Guo Beicheng who came to worship, and the qi on their bodies was also normal.

"Could it be that it's gone?"

Another day passed, early in the morning, not long after the sun rose, the entire Guobei City began to be lively.

The people of Guobeicheng dressed up neatly and cleanly, and came to the City God Temple in groups, burning incense to worship and praying for the blessing of the City God

This is one of the busiest days of the year in Guobeicheng.

The prefectural magistrate personally presided over the ceremony of worshipping the city god.

Paying tribute, burning incense, praying for blessings,

It looks quite solemn and pious.

The county order is the respect of a county, and the officials sent by the imperial court are regarded as "yang officials" in the world.

The city god is the god who guards the city, but the god of the underworld is in charge of the affairs of the yang world, and he is regarded as a "yin official".
