Chapter 207: Man Governs Ghosts
The grassroots city gods of the thirteenth road all presented their own performances, and by the time all the programs were finished, it was already four o'clock in the morning. Next, start voting for the most popular shows. It is no surprise that the Peking Opera program presented by Chenghuang in Qingning District won the first place without dispute.
It also allowed this city god in Qingning District to get the coveted 80 square meters of movable space.
After receiving a purse-style space magic weapon from the hands of Lord Guochenghuang, the old Chenghuang of Qingning District was excited, and finally said goodbye to the hard days of living with his wife and children. Woo, it's not easy.
Luo Guangming was also excited, if he won the first place in the festival he contributed, he could have the soul hook chain, which was definitely the first in the entire Dao Sect circle. Their master and apprentice not only glorify their ancestors - no, they should be glorified masters, they must shine in the circle, they are invincible, and they are like a tiger with wings.
The peers all said congratulations to Luo Guangming with envy and jealousy, even Mingyang Daoist was a little red-eyed, looking at Luo Guangming, who was smiling so much, that he became more and more sour.
What's the spirit, isn't it just relying on the sober adults in the world? Otherwise, whether Shangqingguan invites you or not, you have to put a question mark.
Although Qi Jinhui also expressed his gratitude to Master Changkong for inviting their master and apprentice to participate in the Yin Yang Gala. But Ming Yang Dao Chang was still quite unpleasant, and looked in the direction of the sober world, and thought sourly: Why don't the sober adults in the world come to take care of me? I'm also very young, and I usually respect your old man?
After the award was awarded, the Lord Chenghuang of the National Capital and the Lord of the City God of the Capital came to the stage to give everyone chicken blood, so that you can make persistent efforts to create brilliance together.
“…… At the beginning of the new year, although our business capabilities have been greatly improved, the error rate has also been reduced year by year, and it has steadily surpassed the door. However, no one is good for a thousand days, and flowers are not red for a hundred days, so you must not be careless. Be sure to settle your mood, guard against arrogance and rashness, and work steadily. I promised that if this year continues to be stable, I will give away 200 square meters of mobile space next year. Whether we can continue to improve our lives and improve our living environment depends on our joint efforts. "The level of fighting blood of Lord Du Chenghuang is not very high, but the 200 square meters of mobile space still makes everyone excited. They have expressed that they will continue to work hard to create brilliance.
Lao Cao applauded and whispered in Lin Yi's ear: "Our Lord Chenghuang is also greedy enough, I heard that he was rewarded with 300 square meters of mobile space, and he was so good, he was greedy so much." ”
Lin Yi thought silently, only a hundred square meters of ink, which is okay, it is better than not pulling out a dime and embezzling everything.
However, it is still a little incredible to imagine that the dignified and upright city god can only live in a "shantytown" like the people at the bottom. Human beings no longer believe in worshipping the city god, and even the temple has been demolished, and the city god has no place to work, or even a place to live, so he can only rely on the top to pull out the "space".
The county magistrate-level characters in the underworld all live in mansions, there are drivers to pick them up and drop them off, and there are secretaries to run errands. The treatment of high-ranking officials, that is, the residence of three bedrooms and one living room, is too contrasting.
Lin Yi suddenly thought of an important question, so he asked Lao Cao: "What about you, where do you usually live?" ”
Lao Cao replied: "The capital city god." ”
"Where can you live in a place where the capital city god is a big palm? What about other impermanence warriors? Do you all live in a space? ”
The capital Chenghuang is a high-ranking official of the normal level, who is in charge of the entire Kyoto, maintains the security of the underworld in the capital, and is in a high position. Although Lin Yi is the inspector of the National City God, he has not even been to the office area of the capital City God. Therefore, it is not clear whether the residential area of Lao Cao and other ghosts is as pitiful as that of those district city gods, and they can only have a palm-sized private space.
Lao Cao said with some pride: "It used to be a dormitory, a 40-square-meter space room, with 20 bunk beds and a 120-centimeter-wide bed. I've lived in this dormitory for 200 years. That is, in recent years, he has been promoted to an official and assigned to a single dormitory, with one bedroom and one living room, and a space of 20 square meters. Compared with other wrestlers, Yin General is still good. Jiang Chao is of the same grade as me, a family of five, and it is only forty square meters of space. ”
"Lao Zhang, that is, your former captain, usually looks at him majestic, but he actually lives in the dormitory. It's just a double room, and I live in a space of ten square meters with the vice-captain. ”
It sounds like Lao Cao is still out of the ordinary.
And other impermanence, even a six-grade soul hooking captain like Zhang Ran can only squeeze a small single room of ten square meters with the deputy captain.
I didn't expect the impermanence to be so poorly treated. Lin Yi was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What about me, if I want to live in the National City God's Temple in the future, how much space can I share?" ”
Lao Cao was asked and thought for a while: "I don't know much about this. But according to your grade, it shouldn't be lower than me, at least, 40 square meters. ”
looked him up and down again, "But you won't be bad, there are people down there, and it's a priest of the fourth grade, and the living environment will definitely not be bad." ”
Lin Yi secretly thought, the living environment in the underworld is so tense, do I have to take precautions?
Imagine that you have eight 800 square meters of mobile space, and put your mind at ease, whether it is the yang or the underworld, my brother will not worry.
……
It wasn't until five o'clock in the morning that the old ghosts stretched their waists and left Shangqingguan one after another. Master Changkong also led all the Dao peers to greet all the adults, not only offering a large amount of paper money, but also a gold ingot.
Lin Yi also had a gold ingot, as well as a lot of paper money, but he was not bad at money, so he handed it to Lao Cao casually.
Lao Cao's grimace turned into a chrysanthemum.
The rest of the eyes shot over, with different expressions.
Lin Yi calmly saluted the golden ingots to Lord Guochenghuang, and said, "Before I prepared a New Year's gift to my lord, Xia Guan borrowed flowers to offer Buddha." ”
A gold ingot can be worth tens of thousands of bills. Lord Guochenghuang smiled happily at this time, took the gold ingot, and smiled at Lord Chenghuang of the capital: "The sober and don't love money temperament is really like a day for ten years." "Such a rich ghost, which adult's son is it? So far, I haven't inquired about it.
The Taoist priests thought: Sober adults regard money as dung, and they don't know how thick the coffin is?
Leaving Shangqingguan, Lin Yi heard a ghost crying wolf, vaguely a ghost who was trapped by impermanence but did not want to leave, and was being cleaned up by impermanence. The night was windy and cold, and the capital Chenghuang was not interested in these, so he got on the sedan chair and left.
The rest of the capital city god Yin soldiers and ghost generals also followed.
And the ghost who cried and made a fuss was Li Guowei.
He was hiding in the car just now, and was discovered by the impermanence of hiding in the car to avoid the cold, so he detained his soul, saying that he would take him back to the City God Temple and detain him for three days, so that his living soul would completely turn into a dead soul before letting him go.
Li Guowei usually knows more or less about the process after death. The whole family believes in these things the most, and his family doesn't believe in these at all, once he really dies, he will definitely not ask a Taoist priest to give him a transcendence, and then he will really become a lonely ghost. I heard that the life of a lonely ghost is difficult, so he doesn't want to live like that. He is clothed in the yang world to stretch out his hands and eat to open his mouth, and the money he earns is also easy, so he doesn't want to live this kind of life of starvation and cold without three meals. So I couldn't be afraid, and I started to fight impermanence.
Of course, there is no shortage of beatings. No, by the time Lin Yi stopped the impermanence of beating people, Li Guowei had been beaten beyond recognition.
Seeing that the sober adults in the world were interfering in this matter, impermanence did not dare to be specialized, so he specially explained: "The small one has seen the sober adult, and the small one is the impermanence of the city god in the Eastern District." This person's name is Li Guowei, and he has been hiding in the car just now and secretly watching, and we found out. The little one detained his soul according to the laws of the underworld, and prepared to take him to the City God Temple. This kid refused to go, he splashed here, and scolded us, we couldn't help but do it. ”
Lin Yi knew how vicious impermanence was to the souls of the dead, so he asked Li Guowei: "Today, Shangqingguan closed the door to thank guests, and set up a guard three miles away, why do you still park the car?" ”
It stands to reason that this man's car will definitely not be able to drive in.
Li Guowei carefully looked at the sobriety of the world, and saw that this person was wearing a four-ring hat, and his face was not as eerie and terrifying as other impermanence, but his facial features were handsome and his bearing was extraordinary. Wearing a dark cloak, hanging a gold stick in his hand. The impermanence was also respectful to him, and thinking that he was a great official in the underworld, he boldly said, "My lord, forgive me, I ...... The car is parked here during the day, and I come to drive at night......"
"You're panicking." Impermanence shouted, "I heard the Taoist priest of Shangqingguan say that it was you who drove you away, so they didn't care about you anymore." ”
Li Guowei weakly explained: "I did park my car here during the day. Although I didn't leave, I stayed in the car all the time, and it didn't hinder you, why should I detain my soul, I don't accept it? ”
Impermanence said miserably: "The law of the underworld, all the yang people who see the impermanence will be detained. It's your own bad luck to blame. ”
Li Guowei was also very eloquent, and immediately retorted: "Do you think I want to see you? It was you who trespassed into my car. ”
"You ......" Impermanence panicked, but Li Guowei was not a vegetarian, took out his usual snarky and sharp-tongued entertainment on the platform, and said to Lin Yi, "My lord, please Mingjian, although I didn't leave, I stayed in the car and didn't go anywhere." I just slept in the car, and it didn't get in the way. But they got into my car without permission, saying that it was cold outside, they didn't want to patrol, and they wanted to hide in my car to avoid the cold. ”
Impermanence: "......"
Li Guowei said again: "Obviously, they broke into my car and forcibly occupied my cab. Seeing that they were not my intention, but now they want to detain my soul, I am not convinced, a hundred are not convinced. ”
"You Diao Min, you still want to deny it." Impermanence was extremely angry, and he beat him, but was stopped by Lao Cao and said, "Okay, are you still justified in dereliction of duty?" Hurry up and let the people go. ”
"But adults ......"
Lin Yi said: "Let the people go." It's not a big deal, if you really want to be more serious, you are also at fault. ”
The impermanence stopped talking, they wanted to make some profit from it.
Lin Yi's eyes sharpened: "Lord Yang has repeatedly ordered that law enforcement must be fair and in accordance with the law." You trespassed into someone's car, and you were at fault. Do you really want me to report to Lord Yang? ”
In the end, Li Guowei was let go and thanked Lin Yi for his kindness.
Lin Yi also knew the hard work of impermanence at the bottom, and he braved the cold to stay here tonight, receiving the souls of the overtaken souls, and it was normal to have resentment in his heart, so he took back the paper money he gave to Lao Cao just now, and all the impermanence on the scene was shared.
Although it is divided equally, the money is not much, and it is also an additional share of income, and the impermanence Yin soldiers are even more grateful to the sober adults. I think it's more precious than the year-end benefits given by Lord Chenghuang.
Lin Yi also patted the shoulder of the ghost who detained Li Guowei: "Your grassroots impermanence is really hard, but no matter how hard you work, you have to fulfill your duties and not harass human beings." It's just a big New Year, it's not easy for everyone, you have to pay attention to it in the future. After all, it's not easy to do an errand, and it's not worth it to lose your job or even be punished for such a small mistake. ”
Lin Yi's words were exhaustive, not only giving the other party a step down, but also admitting their hard work, and admonishing them again, plus getting a red envelope, these impermanence were happy and sincere, and they also sincerely realized their mistakes.
Lao Cao waved his hand and said, "The task is complete, right?" ”
"If you go back to Lord Cao, the task has been completed." Impermanence quickly replied.
"Well, then let's go back to our lives."
The impermanence walked away with great gratitude to Lin Yi and Lao Cao.
Lao Cao said to Lin Yi: "Remember to give me a few more gold ingots." "Just now, he took out all the money on his body to help him buy the ghost heart.
Lin Yi said: "I know, you are indispensable." ”
Lao Cao said again: "You are quite good at being a ghost, this is a slip of borrowing flowers to offer Buddha." "Although the Taoist priests of Shangqing Guan have paid a lot of money to them, there is not much at the grassroots level, and when it is divided equally, there is not much. But these ghosts are still grateful to Lin Yi, and the district Chenghuang who gave them a month's salary for year-end benefits has not yet received these impermanent gratitude. And Lin Yi didn't do anything, just moved his mouth.
Lin Yi smiled and punched him in the shoulder: "Let's eat, drink and have fun inside, but they are hungry outside, and then they have a high-minded face, won't they pull hatred?" How much to give some benefits, but also let them have no resentment, and they will be more attentive in the future, why not? ”
If Dongyue Yin Si wants to catch up with the other door, he has to start with "ghost rule". If you train the ghosts underneath well, won't you get twice the result with half the effort? Blindly high-pressure policies are not advisable, and a corresponding reward system is required.
……
When I got home, it was already the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there were several missed calls on my unturned mobile phone.
Lin Yi doesn't have many friends in the capital, and those who often keep in touch by phone are Lao Sun, Liu Quan, and Pang Haidong, and most of the classmates are contacted by WeChat. And yesterday, Wei Yi called him, and it was only Lao Sun.
Looking at Lao Sun's avatar, Lin Yi's heart was hot, the world is vast, there is a vast sea of people, he and Lao Sun have no relatives and no reason, some are just the idea of teacher-student friendship, but the relationship between them is better than relatives.
