077 Complaint and escort
As soon as Tu Tu found out that someone was trying to harm Shi Zhongkui, he immediately reported it to Shi Zhongkui who was hiding near the ancestral tomb of the Shi family. He chose a place close to mountains and rivers and built a thatched cottage to hide himself.
In other words, even if someone finds the tomb of the Shi family's ancestor, he will still not be able to find him if no one leads the way.
Shi Zhongkui was not going to let go of those who wanted to deal with him easily this time.
With the emperor's attitude towards himself, no one can guarantee that he will be in the top three.
But there is definitely no problem with becoming a second-class Jinshi.
Since there is no need to worry about the future, Shi Zhongkui does not intend to let go of those who want to kill him.
That night, an incense table had been set up in the thatched cottage, and the green smoke from three feet of sandalwood drifted straight into the sky.
Shi Zhongkui was dressed in a cloud-patterned plain brocade robe, with a large hat on his head, and a blue ribbon around his waist. He bowed before the Shuntianfu City God and said, "Shi Boqian, the student's great success, would like to ask the Shuntianfu City God to make the decision for the students today."
As Shi Zhongkui's words fell, the green smoke of sandalwood swayed, and the supernatural power to connect the dead was activated.
He saw a middle-aged man wearing a hat, red robe, and golden cloak appear in front of him.
Although the art of exorcising gods is powerful, all kinds of spirits and ghosts in the land of mountain gods and the yellow scarf warriors can be transferred and dispatched at will, but it is not so easy to transfer them to the city god.
Therefore, Shi Zhongkui could only invite the City God of Shuntian Prefecture.
The City God looked down and saw the brilliant power of merit emerging from Shi Zhongkui's body. He hurriedly descended from the sky and saluted, "I, the City God of Shuntian Mansion, have met a great good man."
At first, the City God only took care of the affairs within the city, but the more people worshiped him, the more incense he produced, and the stronger his abilities became.
From the beginning, his duty was only to protect the moat. In the city, he gradually added day and night wandering gods and a large number of soldiers as his subordinates, and his jurisdiction also expanded to include one county and one state.
Moreover, the city gods in the world are different from city to county. In addition, in order to determine their own ruling status, rulers of all dynasties would clarify the status of city gods in various places.
Taizu Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty simply divided the levels into four levels.
From the first grade to the fourth grade officials, they are managed and differentiated.
Shuntianfu is the capital of the capital, so the city god is of course the first rank.
But as the underworld god, the City God has no right to interfere in the affairs of the human world, and can only manage the affairs of the underworld in one place.
When ghosts and ghosts are in front of him, it's like a mouse meets a cat.
If necessary, also catch monsters.
Although he had received a report from Daxing Land before, the City God would basically not leave the capital if nothing happened, let alone go to see Shi Zhongkui at will.
So this was the first time that the city god saw him.
The purpose of Shi Zhongkui inviting the City God to come was to complain. When he saw the City God saluting him, he hurriedly turned aside and said, "Sir, you're welcome. I just did something good by luck. How dare I accept such a courtesy from you?"
The City God thought to himself that what he was praying to was a kind deed and a meritorious deed, otherwise you would not be qualified to receive a certain gift as a person.
But upon closer inspection, I suddenly discovered that there was an aura of fairy spirit in Shi Zhongkuiling's platform.
Instantly I understood that this person was exactly what the earth said, he was probably a person who had descended from heaven to earth, reincarnated and experienced or suffered a calamity.
Knowing that he had a background and a backer, the City God's attitude became enthusiastic again.
"The good man is serious. Although the little god is the master of the underworld, he only seeks peace for the country and the people.
A small act by a good person can save tens of thousands of people from starving to death around Gyeonggi. It is hard to overstate the merit.
Not to mention receiving a gift from the little god, when the good deeds have completed their merits a hundred years later, the little god may be transferred to another place by the underworld to make room for the good people."
Shi Zhongkui couldn't help but curse in his heart. Even if he wanted to work in the underworld, he would not choose a position like City God, which was neither big nor small.
Moreover, it is troublesome to think about being in charge of the underworld in the human world.
It's easy to say that when you encounter a prosperous age, there are not many things and there is not much incense.
But if it comes to the end of the dynasty, he might be beaten to death by some demon.
Even if you are lucky enough to escape the apocalypse, the emperor of the new dynasty may feel that the city god is incompetent and directly appoint a local celebrity to be the new city god.
The most important thing is that the God of Incense has too many restrictions.
"Students must not dare to have second thoughts." Shi Zhongkui pretended to bow and salute, saying repeatedly that he did not dare to have other thoughts.
His actions really put Cheng Huang's mind at ease.
After the two were polite again, Shi Zhongkui explained the reason.
As soon as he heard that someone was trying to kill him, the City God's eyes widened with anger and his hair grew thicker, but after getting angry, he became helpless again.
"What good people don't know is that although the little god is a local city god who is in charge of the affairs of the underworld in Shuntian Mansion, he cannot interfere in human affairs, let alone decide the life and death of mortals.
We can only report today's matter to Emperor Dongyue, who will report it to the underworld, and the judge and Lord Yan will make a decision.
But according to the little god, the actions of those people who want to harm good people will definitely be recorded in the book of life and death."
Of course Shi Zhongkui also understood this. What he wanted was for the city god and the underworld to record the names of these people and label them as heinous people. It would be even better.
When the time comes to kill them using human means, then you will not be doing evil, but eliminating evil and doing good.
"The student thanked you. He still wanted to succeed in the imperial examination. After the roll call at the Golden Palace, he applied to work in the Farming Department of the Ministry of Industry.
Strive to increase the production of grain and fish by 300,000 to 500,000 tons in the capital within three years.
By then, feeding tens of thousands more people will mean tens of thousands of lives, and the students will have lived their lives in this world in vain."
One stone weighs 120 kilograms, which is three pounds per year for an adult. Five stones plus some wild vegetables is enough to make you seven-cent full.
If we calculate it in terms of not starving to death, three to five hundred thousand dan, let alone tens of thousands, can feed even 150,000 people.
As the old saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. This achievement was so great that the city god trembled in his heart.
Moreover, he knew very well that Shi Zhongkui did not have to stay in Gyeonggi to preside over the farming.
If he wanted to go south, or just to Qingzhou and Jizhou, which has a larger amount of water, then the credit goes to the city god and the land there.
Moreover, Emperor Dongyue is in Qingzhou. Not to mention getting some merit from drinking soup, he might even be reprimanded and punished by Emperor Dongyue.
"Good people, please rest assured. The little god will go back and report it to Emperor Dongyue."
After the city god finished speaking, he frowned and thought about it, and then said with some worry, "A good person is also the hope of the people in the world. It is better for a small god to send a wandering god day and night, with soldiers to wait around the good person day and night. At the same time, it is better to listen to the good person's instructions.
Credit?"
Shi Zhongkui didn't care at all about others taking advantage of his merits. He smiled and saluted, "That's how I'd like to thank you, sir."
"Yes, yes." Seeing him agree, the City God smiled brightly.
After shouting an order in the direction of the capital, Yeyoushen appeared outside his thatched cottage with 12 soldiers, bowed his hands to the city god and said, "I have met you, sir."
"You must remember to protect Mr. Shi, otherwise you will be severely punished."
