Chapter 67
The old man's hands behind his back suddenly clasped his eyes and narrowed his eyes slightly. In an instant, the water surface under the stone suddenly rolled up and turned into vortexes.
Qin Qiubo's face was pale, obviously losing control of the river, his eyes were full of horror.
"Her Huang calmed down!" The judge came forward and bowed quickly, "Lu Gong is not a person from the underworld. He does not understand the etiquette in this regard. I hope Mr Huang will not get angry and let me communicate with him well."
The old man took a breath, opened his palms behind him, and turned to look at the judge. "I'll give you seven days. If he doesn't appear in the City God Temple in seven days, then he will bear all the consequences!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man suddenly lit his feet, like a big roc spreading his wings. In the blink of an eye, he had crossed the river of people and disappeared into the distance.
Until the old man's breath completely disappeared, the judge walked to Lu Gong with a anxious look on his face and sighed: "Why are you doing this? I have solved Zhao Fengyu. With your strength, as long as you become the City God, you will have the final say in Tianshui County in the future? I finally convinced the superiors, but you are so unhappy."
He originally agreed to Lu Gong's Dragon Boat Festival appointment, but it was just a whim. He felt that he was not losing money anyway, but he did not expect that Lu Gong had come to this point so quickly.
This allowed him to see Lu Gong's huge potential.
He has a low status in Sitianjian and has also seen his chance to go further. As long as Lu Gong can show his strength in Tianshui County and use the credit he recommends, he will bring unlimited benefits to himself in the future. Maybe one day he will be able to get close to that core.
"Thank you, Lord Judge. I just won't do this anyway."
The judge continued to persuade: "Don't you want to change the underworld of Tianshui County? Becoming a city god is the most direct way. 200,000 taels of silver and 20 gold pieces are not difficult for you."
Lu Gong suddenly shouted coldly: "Does the judge want me to be the second Zhao Fengyu?"
The judge was stunned for a moment and defended himself: "How could you? You can definitely do better than Zhao Fengyu and go further, believe me."
"No? As long as I agree today, what's the difference between Zhao Fengyu? Isn't it the same at the mercy of others and relying on the identity of the City God to achieve some unspeakable purpose for them? I killed Zhao Fengyu to clear away the dark clouds in the sky, not to make myself the dark clouds shrouded in Tianshui County."
Listening to Lu Gong's angry voice, the bodies of the gods next to him trembled slightly.
Qin Xi turned to look at him, and there seemed to be countless confusions in his beautiful eyes.
Any god at the bottom, who has such a good opportunity to be able to stand in a high position and meet the core top leaders of the underworld, should be eager to be. In recent years, all she has seen are gods who have tried her best to climb up, and it is the first time she has encountered such a person who refuses directly without hesitation.
This made her a little incomprehensible.
"Ignorance!" The judge turned around in a hurry and cursed, but still did not give up. "Do you think that if you don't become this City God, there will be no new City God taking office? You do this, just handing over the initiative to others, and there is no other meaning."
"Lu Gong, this is the world. Whether you think justice or justice is just some meaningless obsessions. Without enough status, your obsessions are worthless."
"Looking at this world, who is not trying hard to climb up? Zhao Fengyu is like this, Lin Ruopu is like this, why am I like this? Only when you climb to a high place can your words and actions affect this world. Do you not understand this principle?"
"Before this, who didn't keep compromising?"
Lu Gong looked at him and suddenly realized that the judge who had a good impression of him was not the same as him.
Or, you have too much hope for yourself!
He sighed in his heart, and Lu Gong said softly: "Mr. Judge, please come back."
The judge stood there in a daze, looking at Lu Gong for a long time, and shook his head. "The most realistic truth in the world is that you must kneel to eat enough. Otherwise, sooner or later, someone will break your legs. Even if the people above allow you to stand, those who have already kneeled will not allow such aliens to exist. That's all, please do it yourself!"
The judge left helplessly.
There was a long silence outside the temple.
In the end, Bai Gu walked over first and sat next to Lu Gong. "In fact, what the judge said makes sense. If you want to change Tianshui County, the best way is to sit in the position of the City God. Nothing can be more effective than this."
In Bai Gu's opinion, this is indeed a god-given opportunity.
"No! That's his reason, not mine. Once upon a time, I was the same. When facing various problems, people always told me that this is the best answer. But this time, I don't want to compromise. I know what I want." Lu Gong paused and continued: "If you can only eat when you kneel down, then let me starve to death!"
Yang Jian suddenly ran over and hugged him. "What are you saying stupid things? With me here, I can still starve you to death?"
Wang Yi lay lazily on the stone. Hearing this, he gave him a blank look, thinking that this guy looks like a pig than him. The gentleman obviously didn't really want to starve to death, it was a different meaning, it was true.
Qin Qiubo didn't say anything. Although he hoped that Lu Gong could take the position of City God in his heart, he knew his identity very well.
The most taboo thing for people is to have a simple and profound conversation. If Bai Gu can't persuade him, he naturally does not have the qualifications.
"Senior Qin, I wonder if I can lend it to your temple?" Lu Gong suddenly spoke.
Qin Qiubo was at a loss, wondering why he suddenly said this.
Yang Jian laughed. "You won't be using any bad thoughts again, right?"
"Go to you!" Lu Gong had no feet, otherwise he would have really wanted to kick this guy off the stone.
"I want to borrow the temple of Senior Qin and collect some money for offering sacrifices." Lu Gong said truthfully.
The appearance of the old judge of Si Tianjian made Lu Gong feel a deep crisis again. A practitioner in the driving realm made him feel such a great pressure. Besides, there are big men in the realm of appearance, possession, body capture, thunder tribulation and Yang Shen. If he really wants to gain a foothold in this world, he still has a long way to go.
A blacksmith must be strong himself!
Lu Gong even doubted whether he was too stubborn. If he agreed to be a city god, he would spend 100,000 taels of silver a year and might become a big shot soon!
Finally understood what Lu Gong meant, but Qin Qiubo's face turned red. "Your Excellency Lu Gong laughed. I haven't received a tribute money for two months, the River God Temple."
"Senior Qin, don't worry about money. Our little Lü is the best at making money." Yang Jian suddenly said with a smile.
Qin Qiubo looked confused.
"Lu Gong thanked him first." Seeing his embarrassed look, Lu Gong quickly said to death.
"As long as Your Excellency Lu Gong is willing, it doesn't matter if you give this River God Temple to you." Qin Qiubo finally made a statement.
"Hey, hey, I'm not leaving yet, you start to look back and forth, don't you take me seriously?" Yang Jian jumped up and landed on Lu Gong's head. "You have no conscience, can't you think about returning to Xiaokan Village?"
"Uncle Yang is too worried, how dare Lu Gong?" Lu Gong laughed loudly, his heart was wiped out, and only two words were left - making money!
