Chapter Seventy-Two: The New City God's Deliberations
Piao Ranzi said first: "There are so many things, it's a mess, I can't figure it out, please express your opinions and see what to do first." ”
"With my years of experience, I have a priority and pick up the urgent and important things first, especially the big ones. The land said.
"Yes, what the land always says," Wan said. "When I was a city god, I listened to your opinions. Brother Piaoran, you can tell me first, what are the urgent matters. ”
"Well, if you want me to say, human life is at stake, one is to find a son for the old man, and the other is to heal the seriously ill old man. The rest, like those who ask for children, for blessings, for wind, for autumn rain, for peace, take their time. Aren't you looking?"
"Yes, Chenghuang is right!" said the big talker first.
"Well, without further ado, the old man said that his son is in the moat, which of you will take the ghost pawn for a trip?"
A few ghost pawns looked at each other, but no one came forward. However, Murong Yan opened his mouth and said angrily: "Brother Piao was the city god on the first day, you guys hid back in case of trouble, and kept saying all your best to help him, isn't it empty talk!"
"I'll go! I'll go!" the ghosts rushed to say this time.
"I think it's better to braggart with two ghost pawns and look for it. Piaoranzi said.
"Obey!" said the braggart happily, got up and left the table, looking at the two ghost pawns beside him, "You guys, follow me out of the city to find people!"
The two ghost pawns looked at each other, didn't move, and looked at them blankly: "You follow the braggart to find someone, let's go." ”
"Go back to the city god, we are obliged to do this errand, but the moat is more than ten miles away, and we have to go down the river, it is very laborious, how can we stand it if we don't eat? ”
"Oh!" Piao Ranzi understood, he ate and drank, they hadn't eaten yet, of course they had opinions. So he asked, "Who is in charge of the money and offerings?"
"Back to Chenghuang, the silver money offerings are in the custody of the Zhang's clerk. "Bragging dog.
"Well, where can you go and get it? ”
"I also want you to write a handwritten handwritten letter. ”
"Okay, there's a ready-made pen and paper, how much does it cost?"
"We don't know how many days we'll find it, so you can write ten dollars first. "Bragging dog.
"Hehe, you are really a veritable braggart, you three ghost pawns, can you eat so much money?" Piao Ranzi smiled.
"Brother Piao, you don't know. Murong Yan said. "They use paper money, and ten yuan is exchanged for copper money, that is, it is consistent, and it has to be used secretly. The braggart didn't brag this time. ”
"Well, I'll write a handbook, and you can take it. Piaoranzi said.
"Remember: Take money and do not harm what is good. Murong Yan said.
"Yes, don't worry!" the braggart led the ghost pawn out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know about the money in your ghost world, please tell me. Piaoranzi said.
"I'm here to sue you. "Land Road. "The ghost world uses paper money, which is the dark money that those good men and women come to burn in the City God Temple. Our Shucheng, as stipulated by the prefecture, is one in ten, that is, ten in paper money, and it can be used as one penny. Ghost pawns and yin errands have to do things in the yang world, and when they encounter eating, drinking, and socializing, they will withdraw paper money from our treasury and turn it into copper coins in the yang world. ”
"Then we don't have real money here, or real money?" asked Piao Ranzi.
"Yes, but very little, there is a money vault under the temple, which is the real money that the city god goes out to patrol three times a year, and the people of Shucheng are filial piety, and it is stored there, but under normal circumstances, it cannot be used. The land said.
"May I ask what to do with those offerings?" asked Piaoranzi again.
"Generally speaking, it's all up to you. Whatever you can eat if you make a vow, you will distribute and reward them, and you will also give you money and goods, and the things and goods that the vow-giver will bring depends on whether you agree to do it for him, and if you accept their request, you may also give them a reward, and if they do not accept it, they will not understand, or they will send a ghost to send them back. As for the paper money they burned, you can rest assured that it can't be sent back to the yang world. "Land Road.
"Oh, I see. Piaoranzi nodded. "The patients who live in the temple, let's see how to heal them?"
"That's easy!" Wan said. "When I was a city god, there were many sick people living in temples. Check the recent death book to see if there is any name of that person, and if there is, send a ghost pawn to send it directly to the house, and ignore it. If there is no name in the death book, send a ghost pawn to blow a few more gusts of yin wind to take away the yin qi from the patient's body, or make a few ghost screams at night to frighten him and scare him away, that is. Wan Suihe was invited by Piao Ranzi to be a staff officer, and he was embarrassed to eat and drink for nothing, so of course he had to come up with an idea.
"Well, when we left just now, the old man seemed to be awake and shouted, who is going to handle this?" asked Piao Ranzi.
"Send a ghost pawn, go to the Division of Life and Death to check the death book first. Wan said casually.
"Alright," Piaoranzi looked at the ghost pawn standing in the distance, and told him to check, if he didn't damn it, to see how to wake him up.
The ghost pawn took the order and left. Piao Ranzi asked again: "Urgent matters, just these two things." Shopkeeper Zhao and sister-in-law Wang, one said that she blackmailed money, and the other said that he did not repay the debt, what should I do?"
"First of all, we must find out who is right and who is wrong. Wan said casually.
"Well, that's what I mean. Piaoranzi said. "This has to be done by a shrewd man, I think, so please ask the clever ghost brother to go for a trip. ”
"Chenghuang commanded, of course. "Clever and ghostly. After saying that he was about to leave, Murong Yan stopped and said, "Wait first, it's not too late to go after the discussion." ”
The Clever Ghost is back in place.
"By the way, there is also that little scholar, saying that his classmates framed him for stealing treasure ink, do you have to investigate first?"
"Yes, we have to investigate first. Wan said casually.
"Then there's Brother Lao Wan. "Piao Ranzi looks left and right, it is safer for Wan to go with him.
"Okay, I'll go. Wang Suihe got up to leave, but was also stopped by Piaoranzi and asked him to wait until the discussion was over before leaving.
"Yang Maocai's family died, how to deal with it?"
"In the future, there is no need for Chenghuang to personally inquire about this matter. Hei Wuchang smiled. "When a family member dies, come to the City God Temple, it is a routine report, which is equivalent to reporting to the official in the yang world. ”
"Didn't that person ask me to take care of it?" asked Piaoranzi.
"Hehe, my Chenghuang Bodhisattva, he's all routine. Hei Wuchang smiled. "Who wants their family to suffer in the underworld? In the underworld, we are divided into good and evil according to the good and evil before the deceased. In the future, this kind of thing, there are daredevils and other ghosts recorded into documents, and directly transferred to the Division of Life and Death, and the Division of Life and Death will then be transferred to the Division of Good and Evil, and the Division of Good and Evil will sort out the cause and effect of the good and evil of the deceased, and hand it over to the Division of Rewards and Punishments, and the Division of Rewards and Punishments will either reward and punish according to the good and evil done by the deceased before his death, or hand it over to the ghosts to take back to the underworld, and you don't have to worry about these things. ”
"Oh, that's good, good. Piao Ranzi nodded. "The rest is to beg for wind and rain and for protection, and I will beg for them, and where will I get the children?"
One sentence made all the ghost pawns laugh, and the old man said: "I think Brother Piaoran, there is no spell to call the wind and rain, right?"
"Hehe, of course not. Piao Ranzi smiled.
"This kind of thing, you can ignore it, the wind, frost, snow and rain are naturally formed at four o'clock, manpower begging, for their own personal profit, has been very selfish, not to mention, you also heard, this one wants to rain, that one doesn't rain, each end, you don't care. "Land Road.
"However, they have come to beg for it, and I think that they still have to manage it. Is there anything you can do?"
"You don't know how to call for wind and rain spells, if you want to manage it, you can go to the Dao seal and give it to the wind and rain masters, they are in charge of wind and rain. Maybe for your sake, as long as it's not too difficult, you can blow a little wind and rain a little. If there is any typhoon or downpour, it will not be easy to do. "Land Road.
"Forget about the typhoon and rain!" Piao Ranzi said with a smile, "Shucheng can't stand it, in that case, I will create well-being for the people, but it will become a disaster and a disaster for the country and the people." But I don't know how to write it?"
