"Reward the good and punish the evil; The Great God of Yunlai"

Yu Ziye was stunned and watched outside the Yunlai Palace, while the believers inside changed their robes for the gods after the worship was completed.

The statue of the great god Yunlai itself is extremely exquisite, in fact, it is also pinched out of the clothes, and it is not painted, but the people of Lingdong feel that this is not enough, so the robe sacrifice at the end of each year also represents the farewell to the old and the new with the gods.

In the past two years, due to the drought, this year's "robe changing festival" is particularly grand.

After the Yunlai god in the Yunlai Hall changed his robe, it became more realistic, and in the midst of the noise, Yu Ziye only felt that the god on the god platform had been watching him.

In a trance, it was as if last night's dream had reappeared.

"A traitorous villain will not die well sooner or later!"

The moment the voice came, a golden pen with a golden light pointed at his face.

"Uhh

Yu Ziye's body shook, and he woke up from his fantasy all of a sudden, thinking back to the words of the state government officials before, ghosts and evil spirits can't enter the government, is it really the great god of Yunlai?

Some people pray for peace in the coming year, some people pray for those villains not to die well, and more people pray for good weather in the coming year, and even some ask for marriage and children and wealth.

"Quick, hurry up and buy three sticks of incense for the official!"

Yu Ziye instructed his guards, and immediately someone left quickly to buy incense.

When the excitement passed, the believers left one after another, and the next thing was to change the robe for Lu Dashen.

Yu Ziye was standing at the door of the Yunlai Palace, after all the believers around him left, although the entire Zhenjun Temple was still lively, the Yunlai Hall seemed to be quiet all of a sudden, and Yu Ziye felt that the Yunlai God seemed to have been watching him.

"My lord, the incense is here!"

Yu Ziye glanced at the visitor and scolded angrily.

"Don't hurry up yet!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The guards hurriedly borrowed the fire to light incense, and after lighting it, it was delivered to Yu Ziye.

Yu Ziye was uneasy in his heart, and walked into the Yunlai Hall with incense in a nervous mood, and on this special day, he respectfully offered incense to the gods.

"The great god of Yunlai is above, you must see it clearly, this official is loyal and patriotic, and he wants to be a good official."

In the midst of muttering, Yu Ziye wanted to insert the incense in his hand into the incense burner in front of the shrine.

It's just that on a day like today, I don't know how many people come to worship God, and the incense burner in front of this god is actually full of sandalwood, not to mention that it can't accommodate the three incense sticks in Yu Ziye's hands, but it is difficult to supply.

Yu Ziye couldn't care so much, so he forcibly inserted it into the incense burner, and naturally squeezed other incense with his hand, and the incense ash suddenly burned the back of his hand under the shaking off.

"Hiss"

Yu Ziye's hand shook, and the incense in his hand was suddenly taken out and two were broken.

"Your Excellency!" "Are you alright, my lord?"

Yu Ziye looked at the few broken incense sections on the ground in a daze, then looked at the back of his hand, and subconsciously looked up at the Yunlai God on the altar.

Even though it was a clay sculpture, the man of God looked at him with a smile on his face.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Hahahahaha.

At this moment, there seemed to be all kinds of weird laughter ringing around, which made Yu Ziye feel terrified.

"Who, who's laughing?"

Yu Ziye looked around angrily, several guards around him looked at each other, and some people suddenly felt weak when they came into contact with Yu Ziye's eyes, because they really couldn't help laughing just now, but they didn't make a sound.

"Great, my lord, how dare we laugh at you?" "My lord, no one is laughing here!"

"There are a lot of pilgrims outside who are laughing" "Yes, yes, yes, today, the Emperor of the Demon changed his robe, and the adults must have heard it!" ”

Yu Ziye began to be suspicious, and in a place like Zhenjun Temple, where all evils do not invade, he only felt that his scalp was numb.

"This lord, Chu Xiang is looking for you, oh, just clean up here!"

A soft voice came from outside the hall, and several people in the hall looked for a voice, and it turned out to be an old woman standing at the door, her figure was not rickety, and her mental outlook was also very outstanding, and she could see a little bit of the extraordinary color of her youth.

"You are."

"Oh, the old body Chen Han is the temple of the True Monarch Temple, and I have seen Lord Qincha!"

Chen Han bowed to the Yunlai Palace, and at the same time looked up at the statue of the great god of Yunlai, knowing in his heart that this Yu Ziye was afraid of angering the gods.

Then Chen Han looked at the wall again, just now she also heard some laughter, but she didn't say much, walked into the hall and began to bend down to clean up the incense ash and broken incense that had just been sprinkled by Yu Ziye, he not only broke his own incense, but also made a lot of other incense in the incense burner.

Yu Ziye followed Chen Han's line of sight just now, and suddenly found that there were some strange portraits on the walls of the Yunlai Palace, which were densely packed with gods.

These godmen are men, women, old and young, with different forms and expressions.

Hey, hey, hey

Yu Ziye's body shook, as if he heard ridicule again, and this time his feeling was extremely strong.

"What's on this wall?"

Chen Han had already taken the broom, carefully cleaned the incense ash on the ground, and replied without raising his head.

"The painting on this wall is made by Mr. Shao Zhen when he was eighty years old, and it depicts one hundred and eight ghosts under the throne of the true monarch, Yunlai Palace, divided into thirty-six ghosts of Tiangang and seventy-two ghosts of the earth, they inspect the world, except for the ghosts that harm people, and also see the warmth and coldness of all beings!"

"Ghosts?"

"Hehehe, don't misunderstand, this is just a statement, in fact, they are all gods."

Yu Ziye remembered the physiognomy he met on the street before.

"Old temple Zhu, is there an old physiognomy master here who is a fairy wind bone?"

Obviously, Yu Ziye hadn't said anything more, but Chen Han suddenly thought of Qi Zhongbin, and his face showed a hint of surprise.

"Did you see him?"

"Yes, yes, yes, he can be in this temple? Trouble the temple to help the official introduce it, just say that money is not a problem! ”

Chen Han shook his head.

"I haven't seen each other in years. It's not something you can see if you're rich or powerful."

This old master is a great Yong Heavenly Master, and his other identity may not be known to ordinary people, but it is far more remarkable than the so-called Great Yong Heavenly Master, and he is the personal disciple of Immortal Venerable Yi Daozi.

Even Chen Han himself hadn't seen him for many years.

This time Yi Shuyuan and Qi Zhongbin came to Dengzhou, Chen Han didn't know, at this moment, when she heard that Qi Shangxian was there, she was slightly excited in her heart, but also with a little sorrow, she already knew about the little sister eating the elixir.

"My lord, Chu Xiang is looking for you, let's go quickly."

The guards finally couldn't help it, Chu Xiang was looking for an adult, why did the adult talk to an old temple celebrant.

Yu Ziye also came back to his senses and hurriedly walked out of the Yunlai Palace, and Chen Han inside turned his head to look outside at this moment.

"My lord, the old body is advised, don't do bad things!"

Yu Ziye, who had already left quickly, glanced back, and then hurried away.

When Yu Ziye arrived in front of the Demon Hall at the back of the temple, Chu Hang and the local officials were already in the small square facing the Datong River, and the offerings were placed on the table, and they were also praying to the Datong River in this Zhenjun Temple, which could be regarded as praying to the heavens, praying for good weather in the coming year.

Most of the people who participated in the sacrifice were very sincere, even Chu Hang, the chief assistant of the imperial court.

The steps of the Zhenjun Temple in front of it extend all the way to the Odori River, with a total of ninety-nine steps.

In normal years, more than half of the 99 steps are below the water line, but now, more than half are above the water line, and the drought in Lingdong can also be seen.

The whole sacrificial process is not grand, even Chu Hang also attaches great importance to it, but Yu Ziye is obviously a little absent-minded.

After the robe change and sacrifice activities, the Zhenjun Temple was finally relatively quiet.

Although the Zhenjun Temple is outside the city, it is no longer only a temple place, there are many buildings on the periphery, along both sides of the Datong River is a prosperous place, and there are many bridges erected, except that there is no city wall wrapping, the liveliness is not worse than in the city.

At this moment, Qi Zhongbin, who was standing with a gray man on his shoulder, was on a bridge over the Datong River, watching officials and believers come out of the Zhenjun Temple.

"Hey, this guy, I'm afraid in my heart and only give me three sticks of incense, and what he says is good, the so-called rat feces spoils a pot of porridge, not to mention a chap."

"Naturally, you can't let him do bad things!"

When Qi Zhongbin said this, Gray Mian couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.

"Qi boy, are you sure this method works? He was only superficially respectful to Chu Hang. ”

Qi Zhongbin smiled.

"Gray seniors, such ministers, and when they are in power and favor, they think that no one can shake their status, and many things are naturally unscrupulous, but the things of ghosts and gods are ethereal, and I feel uneasy, with a little guidance, at least Lord Chu will be less restrained."

Gray grinned.

"Then why don't we shoot harder, anyway, we have already shot, how about letting him try the sky thunder split?"

Qi Zhongbin just smiled and didn't speak, feeling that with the temper of the gray senior, he dared to respond, and the gray senior dared to split.

After returning that day, Yu Ziye returned to the official residence with anxiety, and after entering the room, he took out the half-written piece from the box in the house, and after hesitating, he tore it up directly.

But some time ago, Yu Ziye didn't pay much attention to the external situation at all, so he had to rewrite a note that was not nutritious.

Then for the next period of time, Yu Ziye also followed Chu Hang around, but he was a little more attentive than before, to be honest, this was still very different from the disaster relief he expected.

In Yu Ziye's original idea, disaster relief was to sit in a certain mansion and then dispatch officials from all over the country, how could anyone run around like Chu Xiang.

The format of the cantata has also gradually become formulaic, or factual, where did such and such a day go, what was planned, what was done on such and such a day.

That night, Yu Ziye was alone looking at the road map a while ago, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Hahahaha. I know, Chu Xiang wants to connect the entire drought-resistant canal and the entire water veins of Lingdong and Hexi! ”

This is almost a well-known thing among officials, and Yu Ziye finally figured out the key point through his own thinking today, not just knowing a result, but seeing clearly the scheduling of some water veins.

Some of the height differences and some water conservancy structures on the topography map are so ingenious that the two states of more than a dozen states are formed into a chess game!

I didn't know this before, but I've learned a lot during this time.

I can actually understand Chu Xiang's disaster relief layout, hahahahaha!

Yu Ziye was ecstatic, and even had the urge to take the terrain map to find Chu Hang, but obviously it was not suitable at such a late hour.

"Are you alright, sir?"

The guard outside asked.

"It's okay, my lord, I'm fine!"

Yu Ziye will be completely sleepy, he has reached the beginning of the boom, and he has begun to calculate again, these drawings are in the hands of many officials, and they are detailed with the manpower, money, food, and approximate time required for some projects, and even when they will start.

To tell the truth, Yu Ziye just watched it carefully and looked into it, but he was still very excited, just frowning again as he counted it.

Time is a problem, money and food are also a big problem, at this moment, Yu Ziye suddenly reacted.

"Why hasn't the money and grain dispatched by the imperial court arrived?"

Then Yu Ziye suddenly reacted again, as if his previous recitals were all written, the disaster was not serious, and there was order everywhere

Yu Ziye's back was hot all of a sudden.

A traitorous villain will not die well sooner or later!

The words in the dream of that day seemed to come back to my mind

"Boom—"

There seemed to be a burst of winter thunder outside, which also made Yu Ziye's body tremble, he looked at the piece that had already been written today, thought about it, tore it up directly, and then prepared to write with pen and ink again.

Almost every letter from Chu Hang will urge the imperial court to provide disaster relief materials, and this is the first time that in Yu Ziye's recital, he urged the imperial court to pay for money and grain, although he hesitated slightly, but he still put it down.
