Chapter 209: The Empty Temple
"A few idlers dare to stop us from asking for money, I'm really impatient, young master, why be so polite to them just now, just kill them directly, we are a little less than them, but they are not our opponents. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
On the way, Wu Fei touched his bald head, obviously a little indignant about what happened just now.
Li Xiuyuan said: "Your kind of thinking is very dangerous, you must know that killing people will not solve things, don't keep thinking about fighting and killing, besides, they are not big traitors, others just ask us for wages, if you kill others, what is the reason?"
"The world is big, the truth is the greatest, everything has to be reasonable. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, what the eldest young master said. Wu Fei grinned.
But when Li Xiuyuan came to the City God Temple, he found that there were soldiers guarding here, standing in front of the gate to block the way.
"What kind of people, stop, the court is important and the idle people are exempt. The soldier immediately shouted.
Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, looked up, that's right, it's the City God Temple, the plaque on the City God Temple is still hanging on it, when did this become an important place for the imperial court.
"Do you know what's going on?" he asked the guard next to him.
Xing Shan next to him said in a low voice: "The city was flooded, the yamen was washed away by the flood, and it was no longer possible to live in it. ”
"I see. Li Xiuyuan nodded.
This is reasonable, after all, the whole city was flooded before, but the city god temple has the protection of the city god, and it has not been flooded, so it is the best preserved, and it is not without reason that it is now favored by the people of the government.
"Guys, can you be accommodating, I have something to do and need to enter the City God Temple. ”
Li Xiuyuan stepped forward and saluted.
"Go, go, go, now the City God Temple is already the yamen of the imperial court, how can you wait for people like you to come in and out at will, get out of me if you know each other, Uncle Ben is in a bad mood today, don't continue to entangle, otherwise the knife and gun in Uncle Ben's hand will not open your eyes." The guards shouted menacingly.
Li Xiuyuan said: "I'm not going to go to the government to do something, but I need to ask the ghosts and gods about some private matters. ”
"Why are you so annoying, if you say otherwise, you won't let you in, and if you don't go, believe it or not, we will drive you away. ”
After speaking, the soldier waved the spear in his hand, wanting to drive away Li Xiuyuan and the others.
"Take these soldiers down, and if they resist, knock them out. Li Xiuyuan immediately waved his hand.
As soon as these words came out, the guards next to him immediately rushed out.
The soldiers were shocked when they saw this: "You dare to break into the yamen, do you want to rebel?"
But before they could react, Li Xiuyuan's guards quickly put them all on the ground, only to hear a few cries of pain, and five or six soldiers crawled on the ground.
"Young Master, didn't you say before that the world is big and the truth is the greatest, why is this unreasonable. ”
Wu Fei grinned at a soldier.
Li Xiuyuan said: "The world is big, the truth is the biggest, but the fist is also the biggest, it depends on how to choose, if you encounter unreasonable, you can only talk about the fist, this is the way to behave in the world, you still need to study hard." ”
After these soldiers were released, everyone entered the City God Temple.
At this moment, in the temple, there are servants, and servants walk back and forth, like a yamen.
In the main hall of the City God Temple, the statue of the City God with the broken head has disappeared, and I don't know who moved it, but in the middle of the main hall, there are bookcase chairs, like office places.
"The incense is gone. ”
Li Xiuyuan looked at the roof of the main hall, but found that the full house of incense left after the death of the city god that day was gone.
In just a few days, the incense will not disappear for no reason, unless it is collected by ghosts and gods......
Thinking of this, his eyes froze slightly.
Before leaving, he had already arranged for the Yin soldiers here to guard the incense, and it seemed that a lot of strange things had indeed happened in Guo Beicheng during this time.
"Go to the Little Ghost Temple. ”
Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said.
If the Yin soldiers he arranged were still here, they should be in the Little Ghost Palace.
But when he came to the little ghost hall, he found that the clay sculpture of the little ghost had been cleaned up, and there was not a single little ghost statue.
Not only was there no statue of the god, but when I glanced at it, I didn't find any of the Yin soldiers.
Obviously, all the ghosts and gods in the City God Temple are gone, and I don't know where they have gone.
"Who dares to break into the yamen privately, all of them are fenced off, and if there is resistance, they will be killed. At this time, there was a sudden loud shout behind him.
Soon, soldiers poured out from all over the City God's Temple, not to mention thirty or forty, and they surrounded Li Xiuyuan and the others at once.
"Young Master, these people are the people left behind by the lord who provided disaster relief, and it seems that there are a bit of a lot of people. Wu Fei said: "We broke in just now, but I was afraid that we would alarm the officials here." ”
Li Xiuyuan nodded, but he was not afraid, although there were thirty or forty soldiers, but if he really fought each other, he couldn't stop him alone.
At this time, a burly middle-aged official wearing an official uniform walked out, staring at Li Xiuyuan and the others with some anger: "Is it you who trespassed into the yamen?"
"I don't know who this adult is?" Li Xiuyuan saluted.
"This official is Guo Beicheng's acting prefect, Song Yuan. The middle-aged official said.
"Li Xiuyuan, who was born in the late life, has seen the prefect. Li Xiuyuan said.
Song Yuan's brows moved: "What? You are Li Xiuyuan? After the water in the city was distributed a few days ago, the Li family who hired people to provide disaster relief and saved countless people, Li Xiuyuan?"
"The prefect knows the late student?" Li Xiuyuan was also a little surprised.
"I don't know, I heard the people in the city mention it, and Lord Fu also praised your behavior, thinking that your actions are worthy of praise for countless people, so Lord Fu also specially wrote your name into the chapter and sent it to Your Majesty. ”
Song Yuan said: "Looking at your previous actions, you are also a respected person of noble character, why are you so arrogant, knocking out the soldiers guarding the door, and daring to lead people to the yamen?"
Li Xiuyuan said: "With big things in mind, there are no taboos, if you have scruples everywhere, you won't be able to relieve disasters in your later life some time ago." ”
Song Yuan said: "Okay, this official will listen to you for a reason, if you can't give this official a reasonable explanation, this official can take down you today, no matter what you did before, I will take you down today." ”
"Late life came to the City God Temple this time, just for one thing, to cure the plague. Li Xiuyuan said.
