Chapter 227: Walking the Water
When he returned to the official residence after the inspection, the old ghost lieutenant Mu Lin remembered Liang Cheng's request to verify the name of the spring, for fear of delaying the time Liang Cheng became angry, so he told Xin Quan about the situation after checking and implementing it, thinking that Master Xin was the general's henchman anyway, and telling it was equivalent to telling the general.
After everything was done, Xin Quan looked at it and had nothing to do, and the three ghost captains were also in poor spirits, so they let them go down to rest, seeing that they had been busy for most of the day, they were indeed a little tired.
These ghost lieutenants live together in the courtyard next to the general's residence, and they don't live far away, which is also convenient for them to be on call once there is something in the official residence. As for the newcomer Xin Quan, he is the top boss of the three ghost lieutenants, and the three ghost lieutenants are not qualified to care where he lives, so he has to be vague and wait for the general to arrange it himself tomorrow, anyway, it can temporarily live in the general's mansion this night.
The three ghost captains returned to the courtyard where they lived, but saw that Song Xi, who had been dismissed, was drinking tea in the courtyard to cool off.
Song Xi smiled and said: "The kindness of your colleagues is appreciated by the old man, but now the old man is unofficial and light, and there is nothing wrong with it, you can go and rest by yourself, don't worry about me." ”
Seeing that Song Xi could think about it himself, the three ghost captains seemed to be in a good mood, so they also took their own leave and went back to the house to rest. At this time, Song Xi took a sip of the tea bowl, but a yin smile appeared on his face.
However, he said that Xin Quan returned to the official residence and saw that Liang Cheng seemed to be resting, so he found out some official documents handed over to him by Song Xi during the day in the official residence, studied them silently, and prepared to fully understand the various situations and take on the things that should be undertaken in the position of the ghost captain as soon as possible.
After a while, Liang Cheng walked out of the inner courtyard, saw that Xin Quan was still doing his best, and nodded secretly, thinking that this little ghost he picked up casually on the side of the road was really a responsible ghost, and it was really good to be serious and responsible in doing things.
When Xin Quan saw Liang Cheng, he quickly stood up, waiting for Liang Cheng's instructions, Liang Cheng looked left and right, and asked, "How many of them are there?"
Xin Quan knew that Liang Cheng was asking about the other three ghost lieutenants, so he replied: "General Qiqi, I saw that they were busy all day and a little tired, so I let them go back to the other courtyard to rest." ”
"Oh. Liang Cheng pondered for a moment and said to himself: "They have all gone back, and I don't know if Mu Lin has done a good job of the general." ”
"General, this matter has been done, and he is afraid of delaying the general's affairs, so he specially explained it to his humble position. Xin Quan said: "Mu Guiwei said that the Ciquan Cave is the current Black Spring Cave, and it has been verified clearly, and there will be no mistakes." ”
"Well, that's good, but Ben will still need a map of Black Springs and some other details. Liang Cheng said: "Forget it, since they have all gone back, I have to wait for Mu Lin to come tomorrow morning, and I will ask it again." ”
When Xin Quan heard this, he hurriedly said: "General, in fact, there are different springs, their maps and related details can be found now, according to the humble position, your White Spring Guard Token has this function, and you can check the details of all five springs at any time." ”
"Oh, there are such things, I don't even know about them, how did you know about them?" Liang Cheng was very happy when he heard it,
I asked in passing.
"These situations are written in the official documents, and the humble position is afraid that he will not be familiar with the situation here, so as to live up to the general's kindness, so he carefully studies these things. Xin Quan raised the text in his hand.
"Hahaha!Okay!" Liang Cheng smiled: "Ben Jiang really didn't use the wrong person, Xin Quan, you are really a person...... Hell, yes, yes!haha!"
After Xin Quan finished speaking, Xin Quan asked with a smile: "Then now I will help the general take out the token, so that the general can verify the information in it." ”
"Okay, Ben will take a look at the map of those springs, the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other, a hundred battles will not be defeated. Liang Cheng said.
Xin Quan smiled and nodded, took out the forbidden opening token of the ghost captain from his body, opened the prohibition that shrouded the table, and then picked up the jade box containing Bai Quan's guard order on the table and presented it to Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng smiled and took the jade box, suddenly felt that something was wrong, flipped the jade box in his hand, and then opened it to take a look, and suddenly his face sank, and he couldn't make a sound.
Xin Quan saw that his general's face was different, and felt that it was not good, so he hurriedly came over to take a look: "Oops......! At the time of handover with Song Xi, the humble official obviously looked at the token in the jade box, why is it missing now?"
Xin Quan stood there and pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "By the way, just when the handover with Song Xi was almost over, a soldier came to report some miscellaneous matters such as the handover of ordnance, and stood at the door to ask for a receipt.
"Damn!" Liang Cheng slapped the table and stood up: "This Song Xi has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dares to do such a trick and foot to assassinate the general!
The general put his anger at ease for the time being. Xin Quan frowned and said: "The cause of this incident must be that Song Xi is disgruntled and wants to harm the general, early the day after tomorrow, the envoy of Guancheng will come to check the token, and if the token is not there, it will be a big trouble...... It wants to make you lose your official position, general! It's useless for you to arrest it now, since it dares to do it, it must be left behind, I'm afraid that not only is it useless to torture it, but even if it searches for souls, it has countermeasures to prevent it. ”
"What should I do then?" Liang Cheng was also a little deflated when he heard this, sat down again, and couldn't think of anything to do after thinking for a while.
Xin Quan said: "The fault of this matter is that the lowly position is not careful enough, it is the responsibility of the lowly position! But after getting along with Song Xi for so long today, the lowly position also understands its temperament, this guy has a gloomy temperament, but he has an obsession, that is, he can't tolerate anyone who says that he makes mistakes, which is originally considered an advantage, but this temper gives the lowly position a way to ask Song Xi to hand over the token honestly." ”
"Oh, what can you do? Liang Cheng was a little interested in Xin Quan's statement, so he asked.
Xin Quan then said to Liang Cheng: "The lowly plan is so ...... like this."
Liang Cheng listened, and a smile appeared on his face: "Well, this method is not bad, I think it will work! It doesn't take much effort, it's really good! Then let's follow the plan." ”
But he said that on the side of the other courtyard, Song Xi drank tea for a while, thinking that this new Baiquan guard was going to embarrass himself, which was really blinding
Guy, now that he is fighting to be punished, he has to let it be the Baiquan Shou General for no more than three days, hum, the Baiquan Shou Token has been hidden in a place where absolutely no ghost can think of it, and no one wants to find it in a hurry, as for himself, what does it matter, they have no evidence, and it doesn't matter if he searches for souls, because of the exercises, he is not afraid of soul searches at all, haha, just wait to see the jokes.
Song Xi thought for a while and then went back to his room and lay down, humming a little song happily, and after a while, he slowly fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, suddenly there was a chaotic sound of gongs, mixed with the sound of the wind and the chaotic sound of "Bibi peeling", and a ghost shouted: "Come to the ghost...... Walking in the water......"
The zombie-like Song Xi jumped up: "What......!
While going out and walking into the courtyard, he was about to check what the situation was, but he saw that the old ghost captain Mu Lin and the other two ghost captains also pushed the door and ran to the courtyard in a panic.
Mu Lin put his hand on the pergola and glanced out, and said loudly: "No, it's the general's mansion that is out of the water! Hurry up! Let's hurry over and put out the fire!"
After saying that, the ghost lieutenants ran to the general's mansion together, and Song Xi also followed, on the one hand, this is where the duty lies, and he can't excuse himself, on the other hand, he is also a little curious in his heart, thinking that this unlucky general has been punished by God, how can he be burned in the middle of the night, he really deserves it!
The four ghosts ran to the door of the meeting hall, only to see the flames raging, faintly exuding a terrifying breath of life that made the ghosts tremble, and also wrapped the entire hall in it, which looked very dangerous, but this flame was strange in color, burning green, reflecting everyone's already very ugly grimace a miserable green, more and more ugly, twelve points ugly.
"Quick! Hurry up and get things out!" I saw that the new ghost captain Xin Quan also ran over, and while shouting, he rushed into the hall first, took out a large pile of documents and some other miscellaneous things, and then handed them to the ghost captains present and told them to keep them.
Song Xi looked at this scene, felt that this flame was really a little dangerous, and was still hesitating whether he should step forward and pretend or leave quickly, and was in a daze, when he suddenly felt that a jade box was stuffed into his arms, and he couldn't help but pick it up and take a look, but it was a little familiar.
At this time, Xin Quan shouted in a deafening voice: "Song Xi, the token of the Baiquan guard will be handed over to you! You have to take good care of it! You are the oldest qualified, and you are very stable in your work, so you can rest assured that the token is placed here with you!"
"Quick! get your things out of your way!" Xin Quan shouted again.
So Song Xi had no choice but to hold the token box and a few other ghost captains carrying large bags of things and ran out of the courtyard in a daze, and stood for a while, everyone was afraid that the important official documents in their hands would be lost, so they discussed it, and they all took the things back to the other courtyard where the ghost captains were, and each of them properly moved the things they kept to their own houses, and the old ghost captain Mu Lin also said: " Brother Song, the general's token is willing to let you keep it, this is good news, it shows that the general trusts you, I think even if the brother can't be reinstated, the general will have a good arrangement, congratulations!"
