218 Chenghuang Mansion on the pros and cons; Willing to be punished, he changed his hair
The City God Temple in Yanhua Mansion City has been seen many times from afar, but it has never been entered.
I have to say that it is worthy of being a city god temple, which is quite magnificent.
In comparison, even if it was the ancestral hall built by his own Lu Yuan who went out for a thousand taels of silver, it was far inferior.
At this time, it is daytime, the temple is full of incense, and the pilgrims who come and go bring a lot of popularity and incense here.
Yeming followed the two yin cha through the crowd and walked into the statue of the city god in the temple.
After passing through the statue, you will come to the inner space of the City God Temple, which is the real City God Division.
At this time, the yin in the division are performing their duties and are very busy.
Those who are in charge of books and documents are busy going back and forth;
Those who manage the wishes of the people shall determine whether or not they will be fulfilled according to their merits;
Those who are in charge of new ghosts and old ghosts are rewarding and punishing, and they are writing approvals......
In the midst of a busy scene, Yeming saw Yao Jiandong leading a group of new ghosts to the back hall.
Obviously, this kind of work of leading new ghosts is drudgery and requires running around.
It seems that the small shoes last time were not given to him to wear in vain.
Yeming thought with relief.
The two Yin cha took Yeming directly to a separate room in the middle room, which was where Lord Fu Chenghuang did his work.
This Lord Chenghuang of the Mansion City, Ye Ming saw it when he led the crowd to descend "three thousand starving ghosts", and he had some impressions.
At this time, the Lord Chenghuang was burying the first batch of official documents.
I thought that he would continue to approve the official documents and dry himself, but Yeming was ready to wait for the next hour.
Unexpectedly, after seeing him coming, he temporarily stopped reviewing the official documents, and directly waved off the two yin, obviously to talk to Yeming alone.
"The old man is the city god of Yanhua Mansion, Lu Dingchang."
After Lord Fu Chenghuang said a word, he got up directly from his seat, pointed to the large number of approvals on the desk in front of him, and said to Yeming,
"There are too many things in hand, the old man can't be busy, you young man shouldn't mind helping me approve the official document, right?"
"Lord Chenghuang, look at what you said, how can I, a junior junior, do such an extraordinary, how embarrassing it is!"
Someone was polite, but in fact, he had already stepped forward, sat down in Lu Dingchang's position, picked up a pen and paper, and reviewed it decently, I don't know if he really thinks he is Chenghuang.
From a distance, I feel that dealing with such a bunch of official documents looks so forced.
But when I really saw the content of the official document, I didn't think so.
Here's what it looks like:
the monthly debriefing report sent by the county god of Erfu County;
Xiaohe Village recently found that it was unable to cope with the sneaky and requested an urgent document for support;
the quarrel between the two county lords who do not have a good relationship with each other;
Died in the line of duty, and requested a replacement document......
Looking at these big and small things, I was very interested in approving it at first.
But after reading more than 20 similar documents in a row, it makes people feel bored.
Moreover, there are a large number of duplicate documents, all of which are messages sent repeatedly by some inconsistencies.
Not only that, but when they publish books, they sometimes exaggerate and create false information, which needs to be discerned by the reviewers.
For example, the land that asked for help was actually not very powerful, and it was completely within the scope of its coping.
It's just that it needs to consume a lot of stored willpower, and the land is reluctant, so it's an exaggeration to ask for help.
There are many similar things, which are really annoying and annoying.
At this time, Yeming had to admire Lu Dingchang's temperament.
This person's patience is really good, and it is amazing that he can persist for so many years in the face of so many trivial matters.
After reviewing it for a while, Yeming stopped doing it and put down the pen directly.
Seeing this, Lu Dingchang asked, who was sitting upright drinking tea and resting:
"There are still a lot of official documents, why don't you read them?"
"It's too boring, it's too boring."
Yeming shook his head, stepped down from his position, and said that he would not read it again.
"That's where Chenghuang comes in."
Lu Dingchang said, and asked,
"What do you think the city god looks like?"
"Do less and take more, eat for nothing, take advantage of nothing, have something to do, take credit for nothing, enjoy charging ahead, suffering and falling behind......"
Luminous Balala said a long list,
"It's a pity that it seems too boring now."
Hearing him say such a long list, Lu Dingchang laughed:
"With such an enlightenment, how did you become a good god? How will the power of the wish accept you? ”
"Look at what you said, Xing Wishing Power also feels that life is too tiring, and what I am talking about is also the idea of Wishing Power?"
"Haha, that's an interesting statement."
Lu Dingchang smiled for a long time, took out a bunch of booklets from the bookshelf in the back, and put them in front of Yeming:
"Look at these!"
Since the other party has taken it out, someone will not refuse, pick it up and check it.
Originally, I didn't care much about it, but after flipping through a few books, I found that these were all methods that could be used for Yin Cha cultivation.
It seems that there are many such methods in the Fuchenghuang.
"How?"
Lu Dingchang put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Yeming with a smile.
"Lord Chenghuang, since you have so many Yin Difference cultivation methods here, why don't you let all Yin Evil practice and not practice yourself?"
"Then do you think that the power other than the power of Yin Poor Cultivation Desire is good or bad?"
Lu Dingchang asked rhetorically.
"It's good, Yin Cha has stronger strength, and there are more things that can be done, so why not do it?"
"Is that really the case? I ask you, if I practice these methods, I will use up a lot of time.
Then who will approve the official document here? ”
"You have so many subordinates, just find a few capable ones and take turns to approve them, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"Okay, as you said, then if I tell all the yin cha about this method again, everyone will focus on improving their own cultivation.
Then who will patrol the city, who will catch ghosts, and who will manage the villages and counties under his command? ”
"You can do these things in turn, just like all the major sects."
"In turns? It's much easier for the major factions to replenish manpower than we do.
The supplement of yin can only choose a person who can bear the power of willingness, and such a person is not easy to find.
Furthermore, how many things can a sect have?
Do they have a lot of things to deal with in a year, and a county in a month?
Not to mention the land of a house. ”
Hearing Lu Dingchang say this, Yeming already somewhat understood what the other party meant.
"That's why it's forbidden for the Yin to practice other methods?"
"If that's all there is, it's not like that.
Let me ask you again, now, if your cultivation encounters obstacles, you need a good pill to break through the shackles.
At this time, a youkai comes to you with the pill you need.
His request is to exchange the lives of the twenty people under your jurisdiction for the pill, so will you exchange it? ”
"Confused, he came to me with the pill pill and killed him, the pill is mine as well."
Lo Dingchang: ......
I was talking about reasoning, but I didn't expect this person to come out like this.
Lu Dingchang held back for a while and continued:
"But the essence of the matter lies in whether you will act unfairly and harm the interests of the people under your jurisdiction for the sake of your own cultivation."
"Lord Chenghuang has a point."
Regarding what Lu Dingchang said, Yeming nodded in agreement, which is indeed the case.
Moreover, although Yin Cha is a person with great virtue in life, it must be known that people will change.
Only by letting the virtuous person control the power of willingness, and then restraining the person of great virtue with the power of willingness.
Such two-way control can ensure that Yin Si acts clearly, and will not be like a mortal temple, deceitful and deceitful, and eventually cause the kingdom to fall and the world to chaos.
However, the method of Yin Difference cultivation will break this balance and aggravate the selfishness of Yin Difference.
Now, do you still think that the practice of yin is a good thing? ”
As Lu Dingchang asked the last sentence, Ye Ming was rarely silent.
To be honest, he had never thought about it before that.
Even when he came, he thought about advocating the benefits of Yin Errand cultivation and fooling Lord Chenghuang.
Unexpectedly, this was educated in reverse.
After saying this, Lu Dingchang didn't speak for a long time, just looked at Yeming.
After the thought was shocked, our Masahami-sama asked:
"So, Lord Chenghuang, how are you going to deal with this?"
"The cultivation method you gave has been taken away by someone I sent to take it away, and the yin chasers are still not allowed to cultivate.
As for you......
The old man is not an unkind person, since the method is obtained by chance, it is your own opportunity to create, and you will not be deprived. ”
Hearing that the other party was not embarrassed by himself, Yeming was still very happy.
I was thinking about thanking Lord Chenghuang for a lot, but I heard the following again.
"After all, you're just a small piece of land, and the place you manage is very small, and the impact is small, so it doesn't matter.
It's just that there is still to be a punishment.
First, from now on, it is forbidden to teach the practice to other yin.
Second, from now on, cancel all your upward assessments, and you will be stuck in one side of the land for the rest of your life, and you will not be given any possibility of promotion.
How, willing to accept it? ”
If this condition is placed on other lands, it will undoubtedly completely cut off the path of progress for others.
But some people who have ghosts in their hearts don't care at all.
All he wants is a disguised identity, and he doesn't care if he can be promoted or something.
"The little god is willing to accept punishment."
Ye Ming's answer surprised Lu Dingchang a little.
"The old man thought that you would refuse the punishment and choose to leave the priesthood directly, and become a free ghost cultivator from now on!"
"Well, why does Lord Chenghuang think that?"
"Aren't you a young man? Young people are the most unstimulated, and when they are stimulated, they will do something impulsive.
The old man's inference is reasonable. ”
"I'm different, I just like to eat and wait for death in my position.
Besides, mosquito legs are also meat, and it is better to have a position on the land than to wander around alone. ”
"Hahaha, if you think so, the old man will be relieved!"
Lu Dingchang looked very pleased, and patted Yeming on the shoulder,
"Okay, remember these two punishments, don't disobey them, do your idle land well, and don't cause trouble again.
In the past few years, my subordinates have gone to your jurisdiction in groups to be the most diligent, and you have to reflect on it. ”
"Know, reflect, must reflect".
It's weird......
All the way out of the Fucheng God's Temple, I was not in a hurry to go back, but went around the city, bought a few special snacks and a few new market books, and then turned back to my own jurisdiction.
With food and watch, I returned to Miss Wen's courtyard.
I was about to eat and watch with Miss Wen, but I saw a beautiful cat with snow-white coat coming out of the house.
This cat is super temperamental, obviously a cat, but the feeling of walking on the road is like a human.
is still like a big beauty among people, stepping on a 100% standard cat step, with snow-white hair shining in the sun, it is very comfortable to look at.
After walking a few steps, the cat transformed into a white-haired, bewitching, and charming beauty.
Just looking at the temperament, it is stronger than before.
This is naturally the tear Ling who has passed the moulting period.
Now, she has swept away the sluggish mood of the previous few days, her face is radiant, and her whole body is full of extraordinary charm.
Miss Wen smiled:
"Tear Ling is like this, it's much better than before!"
Hearing this, Tear Ling nodded very helpfully, and stroked her hair:
"Thank you, Miss, for the compliment."
She is now also with Green, calling Miss Wen "Miss".
